DAY High- In the BUklyoua, far above where the winds of dawn change the creeping fog to front, lives Cheever Tic holt, seeker of gold. It Is not a pleasant story, nor new one this yarn of the lure of gold that Tlcholl has told In the lobby of ,a Grants Pass hotel. But It has a moral and a warning. Back In the days before the talkies raked the ranks of the actors clubs for talent. One of the requirements was a clear voice. It was not necessary for Tlcholl to say why he never made the grade in the talkies. His voice, made husky by a thousand guzzling highballs, pointed to the downward turn, blazed before by hundreds of others. In Ban ' Francisco Tlcholl read a lure-lending ntorj about how "down and outers" like himself were making as high as (13 a day In northern Call fomla and southern Oregon, panning gold. Bo he came to Orants Pass and located In the Jacksonville dis trict because he read In a book It was famous once for Its gold and gats. That was last August. Tlcholl confesses he Is a tenderfoot of the most Ignorant type, but he says his partner knows the racket. Between the two of them they have panned out a dally average of 40 cents. He la not kicking. He says he would have been bitting the flop houses In California long before now. A cabin, long deserted, at the mouth of a mine, Is better than a flop. The former actor thinks a little publicity of the poor tenderfoot whose beat days never reach a dollar In pan nlngs, ought to be a sort of warning to those who tramp highways, forgot ten men. He thinks It might be a good thing for Grants Pass and Jose phine county If the 13 a day stuff could be soft pedaled. There are businessmen In Grants Pass who think Tlcholl Is right. That la the reason this story has been written. D. L. Whltehurst, In the Grants Pass Courier. SCOT! CRITICIZED CHICAGO, Deo. 31.

Scott, ohalrman of the highway commission, was expressed at a mass meeting here last night at which residents of the county were outspoken In their denuncia tion of a letter from Scott in which the chairman suggested that letting of the Wilson river road contract be considered further "and very seri ously." Scott's letter said, that, because of reduced highway funds, the advis ability of further consideration of the Wilson river project seemed ap parent. He suggested more money might be spent on existing Tillamook county roads. H. T. Botts, A. T. Beal, H. H. Rosen berg and R. H. Miller of Tillamook Issued a Joint statement In which It was said that Scott's "claim of there being much opposition to the Wilson river road waa felt to be the same opposition that cropped out and suc cessfully blocked this road whenever favorable action seemed to- be imminent.'
