BIG BARBECUE
JULY 4 FEATURE
AT BUTTE FALLS
BUTTE - FALLS, Juno 2C The
Butte Fulls correspondent is taking a
vacation- in the mountains of Cali
fornia, so your assistant has taken
advantage of the situation to say
that Butte Falls is busily engaged in
preparing for the big celebration,
July 3 and 4. .
The pit to be used in roasting the
big fat steer, is being dug near the
park and most all able-bodied men
in town are taking a hand in the
operation. Judging by the size of
the pit. the steer will be a monster.
Butte Falls does things and will pre
pare to entertain a large crowd on
the Fourth. J. B. Watkins of Cen
tral Point is employed here and will
receive a double share of roast beef j
on July 3d on account of helping to i
dig the pit. The pole for the;
greased pule climbing contest is in
place and only needs an application
of grease.
One of the big attractions July 4th
will be the address of :Hon. C. M.
Thomas of Hertford. Mr. Thomas is
in great demand by the people for
similar occasions. lie is scheduled
for Yreka on the evening of July 3,
but has promised our committee to
drive home at night and be on hand
July 4th. Let's hear him.
Faber and Simerville have lumber
on the ground to erect a warehouse
for the storage and sale of hay, feed
and salt. The roads around Butte
Falls' in the winter are not the best
in the world and such a warehouse,
filled during the summer months
will prevent a shortage of feed dur
ing the rainy season.
Fishing in Big Butte creek is im
proving and we notice California
cars bringing fishermen to our town,
yet we do not see them with many
fish.
County Assessor Coleman has been
In our district the past week, check
ing up timber assessments. He was
assisted by Mr. Langley of Jackson
ville and Mr. Hildreth of Butte Falls.
The road from the valley to Butte
Falls is In excellent condition. Mr
Allen, our road master Is on the job
every day and now is working on the
road to the Duprey mill. Ho is doing
his share to induce a large crowd to
attend the celebration.
Mr. Ray Parker, a local boy, ar
rived home from Pacific university,
where he recently graduated.
Mr. Parker will be employed in the
local high school next winter, and
wo must add a word complimentary
to our school board for employing
local talent. We are so prone to look
for greener pastures farther on and
to send to distant points for instruc
tors, when there are applicants in our
own community.
The young folks nnd some older
folks are enjoying the facilities for
bathing in the big tank. We don't
see how we can accommodate the
crowd on July 4th as far as bathing
is concerned in the tank, but may di
rect some to the mill pond where the
wter is cool and refreshing. .
Chris Beal has gone to his lookout
station for the summer.
Tom Grlgsby had the misfortune to
lose a horse this week. He had re
cently purchased the team at Central
Point to haul shakes to town.
Butte Falls hopes to see you July
3d. Bring your blanket and fishing
tackle and stay over the fourth.

It is anticipated that the forum on
Wednesday will be well attended as
a representative of the Southern Pa
cific company will present the South
ern Pacific view point in controversy
over the recent railroad decision of
the supreme court.
J. H. Mulchay, general freight agent,
will address the members forum. He
is no stranger to the citizens of south
ern Oregon and his presentation of the
subject will undoubtedly clear up some
of the impressions which have been
gaining a foothold in this territory.
The people of Medford should not take
hnsty action in endorsing any move
ment of either of the interested parties
until both sides of the questions in
volved are heard.
The forum will be held nt tho Mod-
