Trail Lumber Company Will Next
4 Week Bring Machinery Here
7 From Jackson Creek And Hcrcaf-
. tcr Operate In Mcdford.
' Tlio Trail Lumber company lins
its Inrfjo plunniiiR mill in operation
and next week tlic tnnnnger of the
compnny, J. T Qngnon, Hinted Inst
night ho would commonoo tho work
o bringing tho company's snw mill
to Mcdford from Jnrtaon creek,
where it hns been in operation for
several years.
Tho compnny intend to hnnl the
logs to Mcdford and manufacture
theirlnmbcr at their mill yards hero.
Tho company owns five acres of
land in tho western part of the city
at which place their lumber ynrd-
and where tho sawmill will be .ct
up when brought in from its present
sito on Jnckson creek.
Tho noguo River Vnlloy railrond
noow runs into the limber owned by
the company and the logs will be
brought to Mcdford over that line.
The company own about fifty mil
lion feet of merchantable timber in
that locality and all of it will be
broiiRlft to Mcdford and manufac
tured into lumber. Besides this,
thcro is another block of fifty mil
lion feet of timber which is avail
able to tho railroad and which will
in all probability, be handled by this
Company when their own timber is
loogged off. Tho company also
owns n largo tract of timber in the
Big Butte country and this, too, they
expect to bring to Mcdford in the
log.
Mr. Gngnon estimates hint the be
product from the timber will easily
pay tho cost of transporting the logs
the bi-producls such sn lath, fire
wood and sawdust, being considered
a dead loss where the (lumber is
manufactured at a distance from an
active market. The company is now
employing fifty-fit o men but when
both the sawmill and planing mill are
in oopernted in Medford it is ex
pected that emplooyracnt will be fur
nished for over 100 men, these not
including the loggers in the timber.

in the disappearance of n valuable

Frank Stuart, the ovnngolUt of Grif

the frontier, where his work has
kept him most of his life, enabled
him to follow the hoof marks of the
demrted horse over the mountains
into the Applegate valley. Hero
further tmco was lo-t on account of
a Tain storm which wijwd out the
hoof marks.
This is the second horse that has
been stolen on Griffin creek during
the year. J. H. Wilson lost one out
of his bnm lns't winter but recov
ered it while it was in the posses
sion of tho thief, at Grants Pass.
Mr. Stuart is very anxious to re
cover (he mission animal as he i.
very fond of the horse on account of
its thorouch reliability for mountain
work.

WHAT PROMINENT PEOPLE
THINK OF GOOD ROADS BONDS

ers specified Jnckson county mater
ial and Jnckson county labor. That
money is to be spent for the bene
fit of Jnckson county and it will not
bo spent to send to Italy or India
or Greece. It will go to the men
who arc building homes here.
A Taxpayer's View.
Fred Hopkins: I am a largo tax
payer. I believe in schools, but we
must go a step further. We must
not ask children to tramp throuch
the mud to attend school. Wo must
build them good roads. I pay a
lurge amount of taxes now. I will
pay more. And when you hit a manAs
pocket you are very close to hU
heart. How then can I give proof of
greater sincerity.
Prepare for the Fair.
Mayor Lcover: Wo must have
good roads. California and Wash
ington are getting them. Oregon
must not bo left behind. When tho
Panama canal is ojMjned it means
thoiiKands of new comers. And
roads will bo the greatest thing we
can show them to make them want
to stay here. And ufter Jackson
county has led thu way the remainder
of tho stnto will follow. Vote the
good roads bonds by nil means.
For Future Generations.
F. Oscnbrugge: Get your pencil
out and figure on it. At the end of
twenty yenrs you nro not in a ser
ious condition at all. Our children
will sny that their daddies had a
long head. And look nt the benefit
to bo dorived from tho good roads,
Tlioy will do more than any one
thing to make this county.
Premium I Oggered.
Georgo Davis: Tho bonds will sell
at a premium. This amount will
inko euro of tho roads while we are
building new ones. No mun can op
pose tho issue who thoroughly un
derstands them. And after a trip
through California our present rouds
tnuko mo blush. But wo cannot do
belter thnn to patch them under our
present conditions. Wo haven't iho
money to build them scientifically.
And I believe' thutwthe county court
niul advisory board will spend the
money judiciously. Out of the
twolvo road districts in tho county
eight nro represented on tho board.
This moans a fair deal to all of the
sections of tho county.
