adjoining property.
He Hummed tip tho advantages as
followa: A shorter route by 1 i to IS
milea to the Oregon Cnven, that the
value of the land affected waM In the
neighborhood of $8,000,000. and It
would form an Important loop in the
highway ft.VHlem, and that It would
be a benefit to all points of southern
Oregon.
Attorney 7f. P. Norton of Cranls
Puhh. was then called upon to speaU
by XV. K, Plilpps of Medford. Norton
declared that 'l hope Grants Pass Ik
not so provincial oh to try anil thwart
nny Improvement project, nnd I know
that tho collective community spirit of
(rants Pass Is for tho building of the
road.'
Mr. Norton then questioned the
constitutionality of the legislative act
providing for the formation "of super
road districts, and doubted Its feasi
bility as nt present planned. IP
questioned the commission regarding
stato am) federal aid, and wanted to
know if there were any assurances be
yond the spoken word, that the road
would go through tho Williams Credit
valley.
Tho remarks of Norton brought Mr.
Core to his feet, and ho cited how
Medford had worked to secure the
Pacific Highway through both (Irants
I'iikh and Gold Kill, und. If whenever
the f;ty went back on any of lis
pledges he was through. The ap
plause that greeted his remarks was
silenced on the grounds that tin- coni
inlssion would elenr the hall.
County Commissioner Victor I'ur
H"ll then spokn in favor of the road
district, stressing that U would be a
general benefit to this section of the
state, nnd that Jackson count y had
already spent in tho neighborhood of
$3LT,.Uii() hi that section.
lOarl fiaddis gave the commlsHion
some facts nnd figures oir the num
ber of people who would be affected,
plarlng it at 45.000.
William KparUng of Williams
Creek (hen spoko "It Is a humiliation
to ask ,facknon county for aid. but our
own county refuses to do anything,
nnd no we asked for Medford's aid,
and they gave." Mr. Hparling llien
bombarded the fenrs of Mr. Norton
that "tho proposition would fizzle,"
und held "that what has been done
once can be done again, and Williams
Creek Is not scarred that we will get
the worst of It."
T. .1. Wllklus testified that he hud
lived In the district fin Mi years. "We
begged ami we begged nnd we begged
for help," nafd he, "ami the county
court always said 'next year.' Last
yen i- Die Josephine county court did
something. A man died, and before
We could get him to the graveyard,
they had to build a road. Thai's the
extent of it."
The commission then called for pro
tects against the formation of I In
road district. I.. Nehlerniyer of .laek
rtonville, then filed a written protest.
At this stage, Wllkins arose and
said It would be fitting If the man
who discovered Oregon Caves "stood
up and let the folks see what he looks
like."
The commission ruled that If the
discoverer wanted to stand up It was
ngreabte, but they had no way to
make him.
Then C, 10. Davidson, the discoverer
of the caves stood up amid applause,
and was cnibarressed by the applause,
l-'lnally It subsided, and Davidson
uald:
"I found tho caves In 17 1. and 1
guess they ure still there. They were
seven years ago, when I was up that
way. They are pretty flue, and more
people should see them. 1 am 111 tii-t
vor of u road to tho Caves, an every
body Is tired of jumping around over n

Lewis I'lrlch acted as Interloetor
for the speakers. '1' take pleasure la
Introducing Col. Thomson, superin
tendent of tho Crater Itke park. w,ho
will favor us with a few remarks on
the subject before this large audience
Hiithered here."
Col. Thomson arose, and said:
"I have, nothing to say. 1 thank
you."
A decision on the road district Is
expected within tho next two weeks.

CHANTS PASS, Oct. 30. The little
city o( Colt Hill, pr-rchcil oil the
southern exposure of a mountain side
on the banks of the Itugue. gives little
indication of the pastoral beauties
which await the traveler In every
little valley radiating from It, cov
ered, as it is, with the dust of the
piincipal -Industry, the Heaver Port
land Cement company. It has taken on
.1 hue of uniform Quaxer gray; for
merly the scene of some of the most
remarkable recoveries of pocket and
placer gahl on the western coast, It Is
doubtless in tho near future to be
cometagaln the center of mining in
dustry, the metal, however, at this
time being taken from the original
sources which produced the placet
und from which were upthrust the
pockets.
Crossing the 'Rogue and driving
under the railroad bruilge take the
road so aptly termed the Creen
Springs road. This leads toward
Jacksonville through one of the most
perfect little valleys to be found - In
southern Oregon. The ranches have
a settled und contented air and n
prosperous appearance which would
lead one to believe, were It not for the
delightful difference in tho climate,
that he was traveling In one of the
long settled portions of western New
York or northern Ohio. Quiet and
pastoral though the fcciio may be at
present, Its history, from a mineral
stuudnolnt, Is decidedly startling; the
records of bullion shipments at Jack
sonville show that approximately two
and a half mil lift us In placer gold
were taken out of this Utile, valley
and the short canyons that run up
into the hills from it. One of these
(ailed China Ciulch, probably .from
the nativity of the most numerous
occupants at one time, had among its
denizens an aspiring Individ gal who
undertook to trace the source of the
placer gold, which was unusually
coarse and rough. At the head of the
gulch the mountain sides, while not
as steep as the side of a house none
theless approximates it, but persis
tence generally brings success, the
prospector eventually was carried by
his trace to the top of the mountain,
some XOO feet from the placer de
posits below. Here he uncovered a
pocket from which In a few mouths
was taken approximately $(10,000.
This was in tho pocket heyday and,
while sufficiently Important to ut tract
.some notice. In view of tho Cold Hill
pocket recovery of approximately ten
times that much it was dwarfed by
comparison so that upon the exhaus
tion of the easy recovery no further
attention was paid to the find or for
several years nny effort made to fol
low the leud down. However, a little
two stamp mill, having been erected
on Kanes creek ou the eastern slope
of the mountain and having exhaust
ed the $;o to (too per ton ore In their
immediate vicinity, twu of the owners
of the biyout went into the side of the
hill a few feet below the $60,000
pocket, picked up the vein and mined
out approximately $110,000 more
within it few months.
Again a period of inactivity Inter
vened, until some seven years ago,
purely by chance, P. X. Johnson was
attracted to the property, went in the
tunnel, took a survey of the mountain,
studied Its geological formation, and
came to the conclusion that the real
ore hotly had never yet been even
touched, doing , in on the 4 00 foot
level and following what Is ordinarily
termed a "hunch" he sunk a winz
about 30 feet deep on the floor of
the tunnel where the ore was sup
posed to have been bottomed, anil
from one point in that win;', in two
days Mr. Johnson Hook out more than
$ti.0IMI.
The mine had been visited by the
usual number of engineers who had
followed the line of least resistance,
re pr tried it, to their prlncipa Is as a
pocket proposition, practically ex
hausted, pocketed Ihelr fees and
passed on. The unlearned miners,
with a lack of geological knowledge
were unable to perceive that In the
formation vere sheer zones whir-h
made jin apparent plnehout of the
metal. M r. Johnson's geological
knowledge kept him from making the
same erroneous conclusion en.l he
started in one the 0 50 fool kvcl as
sured In his own mind thai he wojhl
find w bat he subsequently did, en
counter. 1 The face of the mountain Is as dry
as anything could well be. At the
beginning of t he work every bit of
water used in the mining operations
had to be carried up from the valley
below. Mr. Johnson assured his asso
ciates that once past the sheered zone
I he mine would certainly be H:i nip.

;tnd was laughed at for his conclu
sions, which were considered as fanci
ful as his primary idea of sinking u
wtnz In the floor of a tunnel where
the or.e was already bottomed. How
ever, u pon going t h roug h t ho first
sheered zone there was not only water
but water under such pressure that
it was necessary to force the dyna
mite Into the drill holes and plug it
there in order to shoot a round, Tho
tunnel, now in over 700 feet, is pour
ing forth water enough to run a ten
stamp mill and the mine Is so wet
that oilskins are necessary In order to
each the face of the tunnol without
being drenched.
Mr. Johnson has gono through
seven years of the usual Oregon diffi
cult jeM In order to gut to a point
where success seems certain, but be
ing like Mark Twain's mosquito, "a
persistent cuss," ho has persisted to
the point where any visitor can read
the signs which point to a triumphant
conclusion of a long struggle. He has
un seven miles of electric line for
power; his compressor is of the latest
type, automatic and of sufficient ca
pacity to run three hammers;- his
tunned is of the best engineering con
struction; and the present progress- of
the work reflects great credit, not
only on his foresight but on his engi
neering ability. The old workings
did not allow a profit on any ore
running less than $30.00 a ton, and
there are some 0,000 tons of ore
which will run as high, or slightly
higher, blocked out and measurable.
The present tunnel will give J50 feet
of sloping on the original rich veins
which have run remarkably high in
values, exhibits or tho high grade
having taken several sweepstakes
prizes. Tho difficulties under which
the original mining was done were
enormous but would have been easily
overcome had it not been for the o,ld
superstition that the mine was a
pocket and the values did not go
down.
The property Is being developed by
or Hand capital and as an illustration
of a common difficulty our mining
men continually meet, at one time
when Mr. Johnson had taken a chunk
of high grade to Portland some wise
acres present nodded their . heads
sagely and agreed that it was sedi
mentary gold and undoubtedly from a
pocket proposition. The question as
to tho depth at which said sedimen
tary gold might be found oil agreed
that 10 feet was the extreme lepth
allowed by the authorities, and when
Mr. Johnson told Ihem that tiiN par
ticular piece of high grade j'nuu from
below the -100 foot level the.' were
like the Irishman that saw the giraffe
ll simply couldn't be so. However, it
not only is so, but any visitor to the
mine can go to the old tunnel and
drift, drown down tho wlnz, and pick
out of the rock high grade as con
vincing as it is remarkable.
The view from the tunnel mouth Is
marvelous; the city of Cold Hill, lies
at one's feet some throe miles away;
the little Cireen Springs vall-y is
spread like a varlgatcd cushion at
one's feet; and the sparkling ribbon
of the Rogue outlines the most beau
tiful valley in tho world.
While the latest equipment of the
mine Is of the best modern type the
mill equipment is inudcqu.tle and
antcqualcd, but there is no d-.utbt that
the mine ,1s destined to be one i,f tne
great mines of the district and that if
the plans of the present manage; arc
carried out it will eventually be a
show place for all, visitors to the
Rogue River valley.

RECEIVE APPEALS
FOR REDUCTIONS
IN EVERY U. S. TAX
There Is every indication, however,
that the committee will follow In gen
eral linca the recommendation of the
treasury, keeping its proposals for to
tal reduction in revenue near to the
$300,000,000 mark, regardless of how
closely it followa the specific sugges
tions of Secretary Mellon as to how
tha reduction should bo affected.
The committee will begin next Wed
nesday at the conclusion of its hear
ings, the actual drafting of a tax re
duction bill.
Krank W. Mondell, former republi
can leader in the house, and James II.
Colt, of Poston, Mass.. were allotted
time today for appearance before the
committee.
Kxeniptlon of tangible personal
property from the inheritance tax was
urged by Mr. Colt. Appraising of such
property for taxation, he said, "consti
tutes a burden on our taxpayers whol
ly out of proportion to the sums re
ceived by the government from that
source."
He estimated it cost estates $1,112,
C00 to make returns from which the
government colccts less than $300,
000.000. Reduction of the maximum surtax
rate from forty to twenty per cent or
even fifteen per cent, and a cut in In
heritance rates was recommended by
Mr. Mondell.
"While the reductions of the sur
taxes will benefit all the people of all
sections." he said, "by bringing and
keeping capital in industry, tho most
pronounced benefits will come to the
south and the west, the sections hav
ing the greatest - undeveloped re
sources and the least accumulations
of capital. The effect of high surtax
rates Is now reflected in the slow re
covery in the livestock and other
basic industries. In lack of capital. at
reasonable rates In many lines of in
vestment and enterprise."
Urging reduction in the inheritance
levy, Mr. Mondell proposed that new
rates be retroactive to the date of en
actment of the lil!4 revenuo act
which increased the duties.
"There is a widespread 'and earnest
opinion In the country," he said, "that
