Anticipating tho first of JDiy, which is general house-moving time, n lot of rcsident crs nrolKlrVfAfj'cTinnging locations. Urn. MnrynWjjitney, residing on B street, has moved to the Kndelman bungalow, corner of Woolen and Nursery, streets; Louie SeUwcim of tho Knglo meat marketas moved into tho L. lu Mnlit rehideneo on church street. The Mu lit family have gone to Portland, whi'io they nro located at fi.Vt llrnzeo street. Mr. Alulit's office headquar ters us national bank examiner are at Kill Custom house. Mike Ketlen, an employe of tho gas company, has recently occupied the llalm u'Mdenco on Church strcol. J. J. Murphy is about to vacato the Wright collate, in tho ultra-fushion-nblo Nob Hill residence section, and will movo to Iho andcrson homo in the blcbciau furnished upurlmciil district nlong thu boulevard. T. Wright will jeoecupy bis own )iroperiy. Clifford Jenkins, manager of tho local gas sorvicc, has diidianged lo cutions on Jligli s(rcoT, having moved from George Oillelte's collage to the Nelppn Jiungalow. Kd Staples is cornorhig tho hold business in this locality. He has not only taken over control of tho Hotel Oregon by viituo of his appointment lo a Jrustea receivership, but coutin uog lo run (ho Hold Ashland, being tho owner of that properly, which he will manage until further arrange mtmis nro marie, .George fl. Wilson, lat! of Medford, , wjio returns liQre to engugo in the ipii,icl instrument business, has leaded the Adams house, near the cor- lr of Allison and Graham streets. MS.

KW COMMISSION HANDLE GAME s ASHLAND KEYNOTE OF COMMUNITY PROSPERITY I T is tho duty of ovcryoiio to buy from the loonl uior clmnt, if he enni hut it is also tho duty of tho local iuoi'- ohiuit to moot tho competition of tho nmil-ordor houso. Tlie mnil-ordor house is u gi'onl advortisor. It places a list of its "bargains" m every household, as well as using printers' ink freely. The local merchant, can sell as cheaply for cash, hut seldom makes the fact known and frequently does not place his bargains with the household. He fails to meet the enterprise of tho mail-order house with equal enterprise. , Jt is unquestionably to tho interest of tho entire com munity to keep the money at home by patronizing the homo 'merchant, who pays taxes, rents and payrolls and does his share toward the upbuilding of the community. It is unquestionably also to the interest of the entire eonnnunitv that the merchant in turn patronizes the home producer wherever he can; supplies mat no can at nenie: tnat ne gives preicrcncc. an along the line to home-made products. This duty of co-operation on the part of the merchant toward the homo producer is just as essential as tho duty of co-operation for the purchasing public towards the mer chant. Tho home producer must meet tho competition in qual ity and price of the distant commission supply house or factory, just as the merchant must meet the competition of themail-order house. Given this equalization, the mer chant who fails to handle local products can have no legiti mate complaint against the farmer who, denied a home market, in turn buys his merchandise abroad. Most of the butter made in the Rogue .River valley is sold in other markets, while most of the butter consumed is made elsewhere. Most of the eider and vinegar and canned goods made here are sold abroad, while most of the cider and vinegar sold at home is made abroad. The only ones to profit by those, operations are the mil road com pany and foreign jobbers. Farmers frequently complain that they cannot market their products in the valley, while at tho same time the local dealers arc purchasing the same or inferior produce abroad and selling it in preference to local produce. As long as this condition obtains the mail-order houses will secure patronage at the expense of the home merchant. Co-operation is the keynote of community prosperity the co-operation of the people, the factory, the farmer and the merchant. All must unite to build up home institu- ions, to create local payrolls, to consume local products. that all may prosper. EAGLEPOINTTAVERN Fire destroyed tho Tavern Hotel nt Eagle Point early Wednesday morning, causing ti property damage cstimntcd between $0000 and $7000, covered by insurance. Hotel and bar fixtures, and household effects were destroyed. The building and contents were owned by' James Vogeli, who was in this city when tho fire started. The structure was built in 1011. De fective clectrio light wiring is sup posed to have been tlie origin of the fire. The insurance is .(J000. Serious damage to the business district of KurIu Point wns averted by tho fact that no wind was blowing, otherwise tho lumber yard and P. & E. depot would have bcyn menaced. Tho hotel property is practically an entire loss. Mr. Vogf I!'s plans for the future have not been decided upon. Tho Eagle Point fire department and bucket brigade battled the flames and protected ndjncent property. I Dogus nickels arc in circulation in tho city, being firnt discovered Inst week. They aro hardly distinguish able from the genuine, and are both tho buffalo and regulation type. In tho buffalo, the only defect in the illegal minting is that tho buffalo is not standing on prairie grass, as in tho original. Out of three nickels examined at one of tho local banks Saturday, two were phoney. Tho Wil lamette valley nml Coos May districts have been flooded Hie last month witli the coins, and it is thoiiKht some of them found their way into this sec tion.

That the state accountancy department, opcr nted for the last two years under the state insurance commissioner, is to he abolished was made plain today when the hou-e defeated n bill amending the law creating tho department, for the members opposing it expressed themselves ns favoring u bill passed by, the senate providing for its abol ishment. When the bill comes up it will unquestionably nass, unless there is u change of sentiment in (lie mean time. Itepresentutivo Smith showed that cost of the audits had not exceeded $18,000, nnd nt length quoted figures to show that they had resulted in pro moting economical nnd businesslike administrations by tho county offic ials, and that through them large sav ings hud been made for tho taxpny- ors.

' f WASHINGTON, Feb. 10. Hepre sentativo Oood of loda, republican, threw the house into a tempest of de bate today by declaring President Wilson had influenced the interstate commerco commission in its recent decision grnnting freight rate in creases. The dehato was on an item of .f.1,000,000 in the sundry civil bill for tho physical valuation of railroads. Hepresentnlives Fitzgernld, Moss and (lordon defended the president. "No ono seriously believes," snid Itcprencntntive Fitzgerald, "that the president lias attempted to coerce members of tho commission to render tiny decision in Iho way that the evi dence would notjustify.
