Jacksonville Residents Asking Why
It Is That Applcnato River Has
Not Received its Quota of Trout
From the State.
JACKSONVILLE, -dr., Sept. 15?
Jacksonville residents arc asking why
is It that while all this fish planting
Is going on that there aro nono plant
ed In tho Applegate river T By this
Is meant the stream known as Big
Applegate. They admit as truo that
trout havo been planted In tho Ltttlo
Applegate, but ask why not tho largo
stream? Little Applegate is ten
miles from Jacksonville, or 16 from
Mcdford at tho nearest point, and It
Is several miles further to tho good
fishing. They point out that tho Llt
tlo Applegate Is a small stream, fenc
ed and posted for the most part, and
so overgrown with brush that It Is
next to Impossible to use a fly rod,
and It goes almost dry in tho latter
part of the summer, and on tho other
hand that Applegate river Is only
eight miles from Jacksonville, or 13
from Medford, Is a largo stream that
never goes dry, Is entirely open, no
brush or fences to gother one, and
Is a succession of ideal holes and rif
fles. They state that what mining
goes on on tho upper river does not
roll tho water In the least, and thero
Is no mining In summer. While for
a couple of months good catches wero
tho rulo on the small stream, at no
time this year has It been posslblo
to take more than enough for a very
small meal In Applegate river. Five
and six trout were tho reward for a
day's fishing. Tho Applegate river
is a far better stream for small trout
fishing than either Little Butto .or
Rogue river, and Jacksonville fish
ermen may soon take steps to put It
on the fishing map.

DEMOCRATS TO
WIN
HOUSE
Congress to Bo Controlled by Oppo
sition, In Opinion of Congressman
Watson of Indiana, Who Has Been
Campaigning In Eleven States.
NEW YOKK, Sept. IT,. That tho
lower house of tho next congress will
bo controlled by tho democrats Is tho
belief of former Congressman James
E. Watson of Indiana, who Is horo
today aftor having campaigned for
tho republicans in 11 states. Watson
figures that the democrats will con
trol the house by a majority of 30.
"Tho republicans aro confronting
mi nruto sltiintlon." said Watson.
"Tho eyes of tho nation aro turned !
to New York. In my opinion, tho
Roosovelt-Sherman fight will bo any
thing but an overwhelming Roose
velt victory. It will ho regarded as
a Roosevelt defeat If tho voto Is
close.
"Wo aro losing congressmen from
Maine to California. In all tho states
I visited I found dissatisfaction,
Thousands believe that tho bost way
to express this dissatisfaction is to
vote the democratic ticket. In In-
dlana wo havo dlfforoncee In tho
party, but havo voncluded that wo
ought to voto alike.
Wo should win
thero.
"I honestly believe that Roosevelt
did not make a slnglo Insurgent con- j
vert during his western trip. His ;
rhetoric simply' has Intensified tho !
feeling of those who aro Insurgent at
heart. It has emphasized tho party!
breach and stiffened tho backbone
of tho men who wero inclined to re-
turn to the fold, but who now grit
their teeth and eay they will not re-iM.
turn. This Is about all Roosovolt
has done. The need for tho party Is
that all tho republicans get togeth
er. I seriously doubt whether they
can do so."
Watson was former whip of tho
house In congress, a staunch support
er of Speaker Cannon and was a can
didate for governor of Indiana In
1908. Ho was defeated by Thomas,
R. Marshall, democrat, although
Taft carried the state.
