RICH STRIKE!"
BOSWELL MINE
AT SUCKER CREEK
Alining mem In southern Oregon
are greatly interested in the report
ot the Immense richness of tho llos-
well gold quartz mlno on Sucker
creek about Blx miles from Holland
In Josephine county. If Is predicted
that this property will prove to be
one of the richest ever known In
southern Oregon.
The mine Is only parllally devol
oped. It is owned by It. Hoswoll
former well known sidewalk con
tractor of this city. Tho mine Is of
porphyrltic construction. One slory
of its richness, tlio truth of which
Is vouched for by a well known .Med
lord man who saw tho oro, Is that
recently out of 4 0 pounds of the oro
gold was extracted ainoiiiilliiR in val
ue to $900. Tho oro Is two-thirds
gold.
I lie property was until recently
In litigation for three years, hut the
doclnlon of tho courts gave Mr. Hiin
well a clear title. With his wife and
Bon Mr. Doswoll has been at work
developing the mine for n long time.
Tho drift ho has been working, on
la only In about 30 feet.
A Huntington mill was recently
Installed at tho mlno, and only liwt
week a gas engine to npnrnto the
mill was set tip. When this modern
machinery gets to work, It Is pre
dicted Hint the mlno will produce
wonderful results.
It is said that today Mr. Iloswell
could disposo or tho mlno for ISIiO,
000 Just as it Is, and that possibly n
million or more will bo taken out If
the richness ot the lead so far tapped
in tho short drift halils out. Mr.
Boswell's many Medford friends are
pleased at his good fortune
A number of Medford men have
large placer holdings near the Bos
well mine.
COUNCIL TRANSACTS LITTLE
BUSINESS TUESDAY SESSION
Aside from tho appointment of
Eugene Amann to tho city police
force to take the place of Officer Wil
liam Crawford, resigned, thero was
little business transacted at tho regu
lar meeting of the, city council Tues
day night. Soino time was con
sumed discussing the licenses of jit
neys for tho Ashland Round fp, it
finally being decided to rhargo the
motor trucks with freight licenses,
$2.60 per day and compel the giving
of a cash bond, the t hl.-f rf police br
ing authorized to attend to the mat
ter. Regular licensed Jitney operators
were allowed to put on extra cars In
payment of l a day licence fee anil
new cars unlicensed will be charged
$."i per day, or $10 for the three days.
It was arranged with 1-Mli-r llmth
ers to fix up tho flumes on the ,
ranch and thus protect the city water
right, and the. matter regarding sup
plying city water to those outside or
the city wan referred In the water
committee.
Colonel Howard Hanson, originator
of tho Hanson plan of refinancing the
city talked at length regarding the
financial outlook of the city and nincy
a number of recommendations and
suggestions. Ilecause of the two bil
lion dollar Liberty loan and the pros
pect of tho government borrowing an
averago of a billion dollars a month
during tho duration of the war, he
norlarod tho market for municipal
bonds had been depressed ami advis
ed offering for sale, only such bond
as aro needed to take care of the
moneys advanced by the city.
The council took no action In this
matter last night and prohahly no
action will be taken until the .vl
ion of the mipicnie court has Nm re
colved. Councilman Keeno who came
to tho council meeting late, favored
giving the banks of the city oppor
tunity to aid in financing the i Ity by
taking up a block of the refunding
bonds.
RUSSIA RECOVERS
U
first tin Kus.si.in liKiiijik struck ham when lie was
J- a slave, lie will strike twice as hard jkw that lie
is free."
This assert ion was made at the recent congress of peas
ants in I'et rograd by a soldier delegate, ami events seem
to he hearing it out.
(icneral ISriisiloff recently remarked: "The liiissiun
tinny has heen sick, hut is now convalescent." Since
then it lias apparently completely recovered from the re
cent indisposition.
There are many similarities between the' present. LJ us
sian army and that of J'Yance during the revolution dis
cipline is exercised from beneath instead of from above,
by committees of soldiers rather than by officers only. J n
brief, what the army lacks in discipline is move than made
up by enthusiasm.
f the Jviissiau soldiers are anything like as enthusiastic
for democracy as the French revolutionists wore, no force
in the world can defeat them if they arc properly muni
tioned and equipped. The French revolutionists defeated
the world in arms a world fighting, as Uussia's enemies
are fighting, at the behest of autocracy. The one is in
spired by the vision of brotherhood but what, is there
about, a monarch's command to inspire sacrifice?
Russians have behaved extremely well thus far in the
revolution, which is working an organic change in the life
of the nal ion and of the world with a minimum of disturb
ance and hlootlslied. .u matter what the outcome, the con
dition of Russia will be improved over the past.

they hud been told it was the Ameri

their utmost to j;iv.' the town a fes

The scarcity of 1'nited Stiites

American troops fii-st lauded a week

Paris for quantities of the Stars mid
Stripes and the seaport uwoke under
the first cloudless skies for n week,
rmlianl with hunting.
The townspeople took a sort of
holiday, though they did not close
their stores, which these days are
such an unusual source of ineonie
wilh the thousands of new custom
ers. Such Ainerivan soldiers and
sailors as were allowed liberty, num
bering into the thousands, were made
welcome everywhere. Countless fam
ilies gave little dinner parties to
lonesome stranger soldiers from the
1'nited Stales.
At. the Hiiut where Ibe troops are

were played and athletics and sports
of all kinds were indulged in by the

CENSORS NEWS
T
WASHINGTON, July 6 Tho war
partment here has decided to censor
news dispatches from Franco which
have already passed by foreign cen
sors.
It deflocts incoming cablegrams at
New York to Washington, where they
are censored and turned over to rep
resentatives of tho press associations
and newspapers to whose New York
offices they are addressed. Tho As
sociated Press accounts of tho Kourth
of July celebration in Paris wero
among tho dispatches thus deflected
and delayed.
Secretary Baker In a statement last
night said the present arrangement
is temporary and would be main
tallied "only so long as is necessary
to perfect a smooth-working plan to
handlo this matter without imperil
ing the lives of American citizens."
Sir. Baker has made no effort to
find legal authority for tho establish
ment of a new censorship, he says,
and does not Intend to ask for legis
lation in that regard.
"Tho secretary of war," ho said,
"by unanimous consent," is empow
ered to take any steps necessary for
the protection of American soldiers.'
