OPERATE QUARRY
ON A BIG SCALE
Unlimited Quantities of Finest Gran
ite Soon to Bo Quarried for Build
inn and Road Purposes at Gold
Ray, Asserts Dr. C. R. Ray. '
Dr. (.'. II. Hay lias huem interview
ed uri follow in jho I'ortlmiri Telu
ntin refill ditiK liifr jjrnnite qilurry
at Gold Hay:
Dr. C. H. Hay, jieneial uianaf;cr ol
the enterprise, bays that the quarry
has been opened and cquippe'd at an
expense of about Jp'JOO.OOO. The nulici
granite bluff, whieh Jjorders Kotte
river is the deposit ataeked, and n
seems fo have unlimited stone in re
serve. All of the early work has
been devoted to stripping the surface
reinoviiu,' tlio ehecked and oxidized
granite on top, and erushiiijr much 01
this for road construction in the ad
jacent country. Nearly two years
has been devoted to preparatory
stages, and the time is now ncni
when it will bo possible to operati
on a large scale.
Dr. Hay says. tests of the granite
have been made at several places
with the result that the Oregon pro
duct is declared to lfuve the strength
and beauty of the' Harre granite oi
Vermont. There have been several
orders tendered for granite in tin
northwestern building opei'a lions,
which could not be filled owing to the
incomplete equipment. Three build
ings in Bedford June been built ol
the stone and the effect is beautiful
When the plant opens full blast, it i:
proposed to put this granite in com
petition with all the imported stout
in the Northwest, and even in Cali
fornia. In the matter of furnishing crush
ed rock a. big business seems to be
opened. .As the plant is directly 01
the Southern Pacific track, and al
the quarry products move to the cart
by gravity, crushed rock can l)i
shipped to all southern Oregon points
on the railroad. .Med lord is but .1
" few miles away, Ashland !H. am'
(.Irani Pass nearer. All the heav.x
improvement work for the Hoguc
H'ner valley, both for road and for
building purposes on 11 large scale
will be at the door of the new quar
ry. Should the state begin wagon
roud construction on a large scale,
it is believed that this quarry could
i'liruisli crushed rock at the lowest
i'itrures, to the entire southwesteii
Oregon district. The Southern Paci
fic will use large quantities of tin
ciiished stone to ballast. As the
granite is very tough it is declared to
be (be very beyl fur this purpose.

FAVOR ROADS
FOR JOSEPHINE
Grants Pass Delegation Works for
'Bonds for County Hitjliways Irri
gation Matters Will Probably Be
Strtlnjitcncd Out Coming Year.
Says the Telegram: II. C. Kinney ol
Grants Pass, who was a delegate to
the good roads convention, is one oi
the most prominent citizens in Jos
ephine county, and for many years lie
has been foremost in every work that
has been started for the upbuilding
of southern Oregon. For more than
a qunrter of a century he has been
a business man of Grants Pass and
has for the past few years been act
ive in securing for that section tin
benefits of irrigation, being a
director of the Josephine County Ir
rigation and Power company, lie ha
see"n Grants l'ass grow from a ham
let of a few houses to a bustling
city of iiUUO people.
Mr., Kiuticy fjnid that he and- the
otheiylelegntes from Josephine coun
ty had done what they could in tit-:
convention to help the good roitds
movement and that ihey were much
pleased with wlmt they have accom
plished; 'Our count" gave a substantial
majority for the adinendincnt. of the
constitution, and I believe that if the
Legislature will, pass the bills re
commended by the convention there
will be. no difiieulty in bonding Jose
phine county in the interest, of good
roads. Ti.e e'ounty court was el
ected on a good road plaUonn and it
the means arc available I feel quite
nrc of tae result.
"Wo ho,)o this year to havo our ir
rigation matters in such a shape as
greatly to benefit not only the fann
ers of the vicinity, but the business
men of the City of Grants Pass as
well. Whenever we get the water 011
thu land adjoining Rogue river and u
portion of the Illinois valley we will
develop not only the fruit industry,
but we will have the best agriculture
section inlbe United States.
"Our Commercial club, which is
composed of tlio live busiues men ol
the town and lending farmers and
mining men of the country, propose
to take up not only the general work
of the club, but to devote its energies-
especially to this mntter."

FAKE PLEA TO
ESCAPE PENALTY
n - ' - ' ,
Grants Pass Man Who Violated Law
by Fishing Off Dam Pleads iii Dc-
. fense That Trout Is Not a Migra
tory Fish.
GRANTS PASS, Ore.. Dec. lll.-r-A
case that bus been holding fire for
some time, but whieh is now booked
to be tried December 'J8, is whethor
or no a trout is u migratory fish.
There will also bo.otliei' fishy ques
tions setteled at that time, when the
case of the Stale of Oergon agaiit
A. Mock, will be tried in the Justice
Court in this city. A score of ex
pert fishermen will testify. One Of
the witnesses already supenned is
A. If. Mclicnn, an expert with the
hook and line, who hit long studied
the character of the fish of the
Rogue river.
The caso arises from the fact that
some time ago a number of Southern
Pacific officers spent 11 day at this
city, and thu Commercial club enter
tained tlietn with a nice moss of fish.
To gel a trout., A. Mock, one of thr
local expert fisbeimen, was engaged:
to catch the fish. In order to be sure'
of the fish, ho was, to 11 curtain cx-
tent, authorized by tlio club to fish
off an old dam near this city. The
question arises as to whether a trout
is a "migratory" fish and it ho could
catch them within UUO feet of the
dam. v
The shale officers contend that
they havu all the authority on fish
on their side, while the defense as
serts there is ample, evidence right
here in. Grunts Pass to disprove the
theories of Washington authorities
and college professors. One thing is
certain, the hot 'evidence has long
since boon lucked under Ihu belts
of Messrs 0'Prien, Fields, Fcnton
itud other railroad officials and, it
s up to the slate to prove whether
Mock caught the trout, suckers, carp
or polly-winkles'. The mosl dninag-
ing evidence against Mock is that the
railroad officials staled that the fish
were "mighty fine."
Sunkist Oranges for Christmas.

lhey make a very acceptable Christ

for this luscious fruit.
If you will read (ho advertisemenls

SAGE FOR DARKENING THE
HAIn
Tboro Is nothing new about the iuVa of
using sago for restoring lln color of the
linn-. Our grcut-Knuidniotlier.s kept ttiolr
locks .ofr, dark and glossy by using a
"mro tea." Whenever their hair fH out
6r took on a dull, faded or htrcafcrU ap
pearance, tlioy mailo a brnv ofsngd
leaves and applied It to their hair with
voadcrfully beneficial effect. Nowadays
wo don't have to resort to the old-time,
tiresome method of gathering tlio herb
and innkln? tho brew. This Is done by
skillful chemists better than wo could do
It ourselves, and all wo have to do Is to
call for the ready made product. Wyeth's
.Sage and Sulphur, containing sage in tho
proper strength, with the addition of
Sulphur, another old-time ncalp remedy.
This preparation is sold by all first-clas.
druggists for f.Oc. and ?l.00 a bottle, or
Is sent direct bj the Wyeth Chemleal

Rawlins and Mrs. Flshor are attend
ing the rail with the Christian church
at Central Point this vyelt.
Rev. Mr. McGce, eolporter of the
Daptlsrchurch, spent several days In
Phoenix conducting several very ln
tere'stlng chldlrcn's meetings In the
Presbyterian church during his visit.
, Tho school Is preparing brief holi
day program, which will bo rendered
on Friday afternoon before Xnms.
. Now for a move In time to secure
tho advantages of high school grades
under tho now law voted tho last
election. Wo ought to have ten or a
dozen high school students hero next
year. Of courso- our school board
will taka tho proper steps to secure
theso advantages.
A prominent gentleman of our town
suggests tho urgent need of a hunianu
society and a health official for
Phoenix. The old adage that "what
Is evcrybodyy's busliie'ss Is nobody's
business" Is tt'ito In ninny things, and
so In matters involved In tho abovo
suggestion.
Should our town council look Into
these things, or should tho churches
Interest thoinselvcs In such affairs?
Tho world Is teaching tho churches
today tho power there Is In trusts,
combines, federation and unions. Tho
churches aro beginning to seo what
they havo lost by their divisions and
oftentimes conflicting efforts; and
leaders In religious thought every
where at'o moving Cor or longing for
a closer fellowship among Christian
people. Wo aro not disparaging the
efforts of others when wo say tho
disciples of Christ are pioneers In
this good work.
Mrs. Iloxcr, Karlo Hover and Miss
Fay Carver wore down from Ashland
Inst Sunday - and attended services
at tho Christian church. Mart to see
them.
Two outslrto preachers attended al
