Pierce, who together with an eastern syndicate owns about 37,000 acres of sugar and yellow pine in the eastern part of this county, accompan ied the editor of the Klamath Falls Express from Medford to Agor on Oct. 8. Mr Pierce was on his way to New York and Pennsylvania on a business trip and may accomplish a great deal of good for this county ere he returns on December 1. ."The first thing I shall do while east," said he, "will bes to call on Mo ran Bros., of the N. C. & O.' railroad and who have a party of surveyors out now finding a feasible route for exten sion of their line. It's my impression that they have but little knowledge of the great resources of Klamath county aud I shall do my utmost to inform them." "Our own company has the capital to build a railroad, but we haven t much faith in saw-mills; wo prefer to sell stumpuge, but if we do build mills it will be in the woods." If Purdee, t ook & Jo. would join us in our effort, I believe a road would be buut speedily, but they have becu to big sxpense in their Klamath river en terprise, aud having a costly mill at Pokegumu, they want to give that plan fair trial. Their chute at Shovel creek will cost $20,000 and their pay roll ranges Irom Sti.UUU to S,lftM per month." Mr. Pierce takes back to New York with him the photograph of a sug-r pine tree on Jenny creek that contains o'J.OOU feet ol lumber. WHEEE'8 80UTHE&N O&EQONF Seven of the Sixteen Counties of the First Congressional District. "What sections are included in the term Southern Oregon? What coun ties do you mean by Southern Oregon?" This patrol questions has bothered lots of old settlers, savs the Klamath Falls Star, and has been a fruitful source of contradictions in camp and cabin field, posture and mine for years and vears. Some hare besitatr-d to include Lake, or even Klamath among the Southern Oregon sections, while oth ers boldlv designate the terrllorv in cluding Klamath. Lake, Harney and Malhuer as '"Southern Oregon." But Prof. Thomas Condon, the geol ogist in the Mate University, desig nates the region known as Southern Oregon "so as to include Lake and Klamath counties on tbe east, Douglas, Coos and Curry counties on the west, and Jackson and Josephine on the south." This gives to Southern Ore gou seven out of tbe sixteen counties of the First Congressional District. Petitions Denied. Then have been petitions circulated throughout tho county for aeveraJ months past, asking the County Court to restore the bounty on coyote-:. Hun dreds of citizens of Jackson county signed the petition and they were pre sented to the County Court at the last Wrm. The Court has seen tit to deny tbe petitions, even in tbe face of the fact thct it was the unanimous demand, almost of every citizen, that tho bounty be restored. Why this is so, we are at a loss to determine, unless, it is that tho Court is blind to the wants of the peonlo. The petition to reduce the salary of the County school superintendent, wss also denied on tbe ground, we under stand, that the Court held it bad no authority, or legal right to do so. This interpretation ot the law is a de parture from all reason and justice The court raised the salary, during the present incumbent s term, and there can be no legal obstruction to this same salary belnir reduced to where It was at tho beginning of the term. Literary Society. The Medford Business College Lit erary Society met at the college room last Tuesday evening and was called to order bv the president.
