Voters' League
Hears Talk On
Urban Problems
The need for establishment
of a state agency to aid cities
and counties In solving urban
problems was pointed out at
the January meeting of the
Medford League of Women
Voters.
The speaker was Dr. Earl
Campbell. He said that such a
state agency should have no
direot control over local gov
ernment administrations.
Dr. Campbell stressed that
there is no one ideal solution
for urban problems, but that
there are many different solu
tions, with each having defin
ite limitations.
He urged citizens to show
an interest in the problems at
once, and said solutions
should be sought now before
they become even more com
plex.
Metropolitan problems will
be discussed in both January
unit meetings. The morning
unit will meet at 9:45 a.m.
January 22 at the home of
Mrs. Hugh Collins, '245 Val
ley View drive. The evening
unit will meet at the home
of Mrs. Thomas Rutter, 1033

Directors Plan
Meeting Tonight
The board of directors of
Civic Music association will
meet at the home of Mrs. D.
F. Huson, president, tonight
at 8 o'clock.
Here for the meeting is J.
Foster, representative of the
parent organization from
Evanston, 111. He will pay his
annual "service call" In prep
arations for the annual mem
bership drive.
The local association is
planning to hold the drive in
the spring of 1963 rather than
waiting until fall. There are
many reasons for this move,
according to Mrs. Huson. It
has been noted in recent
years that top flight artists
are being booked far in ad
vance and it is difiicult to fill
the season's needs if booking
is delayed until fall.
Last fall the association's
membership campaign was
held in a month when other
efforts of a similar nature
were being undertaken, and
community efforts were di
vided. To take care of the needs
of Southern Oregon college
students, a block of tickets
will be set aside for their pur
chase in the fall.

Siskiyou County's Famous
People Listed by Speaker
Yreka - "Famous People
Who Have Lived in Siskiyou
County" was the topic of a
talk given by Mrs. Ella Soule'
before the Siskiyou County
Historical society at their re
cent meeting at the museum.
Approximately 80 members
and guests attended. Lewis M.
Foulke, program chairman in
troduced Mrs. Soule, who is a
native of Siskiyou county,
born and reared in the Little
Shasta area and who was and
still is active in several or
ganizations.
Lotta Crabtree was the first
on Mrs. Soule's list of famous
people. She was an entertain
er who sang and danced and
told Jokes for the miners.
There is a marker erected in
front of Con Brown's place of
business in Yreka where Lotta
once entertained, she was
born In New York, her moth
er was a seamstress, wno
worked for actresses in the
theater, sewing their ward
robes and because she was the
family breadwinner had to
take her little girl Lotta along
with her.
The father was a ne'er-do-
well who was always trying
to strike it rich, but never
made the grade. The child was
very appealing and the ac
tresses taught her little dance
routines and songs. The fath
er came to California and sent
for his family and they lived
in Grass Valley next door to
the famous actress, Lola Mon
tcz, who suggested the child
be taken to mining camps to
entertain miners who were
very lonely for their own chil
dren. Success
She was a success and made
a great deal of money; miners
were known to have thrown
gold nuggets on the stage af
ter her performances. In later
life she was very wealthy and
extremely charitable.
Wat Governor
William Irving, who was at
one time a resident of Yreka
and lived on Lane street, was
Governor of California in
1875. He was also a state sen
ator, the first president of the
county fair, editor of a paper,
and worked on the sanitation
commission, which was state
wide.
Dr. Flcmmlng G- Herns was
one of the men of the party
who discovered gold in Yreka
at the Thompson Dry diggings
and that started the gold rush
to that area. He at one time
was a city trustee, and was re
sponsible for starting many
lodges in the community. He
was a dentist.
D. D. Colton, sheriff of Sis
kiyou county in 1852, was
serving in that capacity when
an angry mob of Greenhorn
people descended on the jail
and caused a jail break which
resulted in a bloody battle be
fore it was quelled. He also
was the publisher of a news
paper. Joaquin Miller
Joaquin Miller, whose real
name was Cincinnatus Heine,
was another who lived in this
area. He is noted for his many
poems and books. He married
an Indian girl and lived
among her people for a time
before going to San Francisco.
His wife returned to her peo
ple, with their child, a little
daughter. Joaquin Miller
changed his name at the time
he helped some Mexicans
drive horses south. He did not
become famous until going to
London, England. There he be
came the "lion" of London
society.
Mark Twain
Mark Twain did not come to
Yreka, but got material for
his writings from miners, who
went to Tuolumne, where he
lived. He said that Bret Hart
taught school here and was
also a messenger for Wells
Fargo. Hart published a pa
per. He gave up his book writ
ing for a' $10,000 a year job
writing for a paper.
Mrs. Soule' also mentioned
John Rhorcr, a pioneer who
opened the Franco hotel, a
bakery in Oregon known as
Jackson bakery, built the first
cabin in Shasta valley and
was the first to climb Goose
nest mountain; J. K. Luttrell,
Scott valley, who was a U.S.
congressman; John Doggclt,
also of Scott valley, who was
assemblyman for 24 years; Lt.
Governor Pyle, who was the
first postmaster; L. M. Foulke,
who was the father of the pro
gram chairman, and Lewis
Foulke, a state senator, in
spector of internal revenue for
the five western states, when
Grant was president.
Mrs. Soule' ended her dis
course by saying that not 'all
Siskiyou county's famous peo
ple were dead. She mentioned
Randolph Collier, who is the
oldest California state senator
in years of service and noted
for his state highway program,
and Lauren Payne of Ft.
Jones, who is popular here
and in England for his west
ern stories. He is an author
ity on western history. All
reside in the county.
Installations
Before the program retiring
president of the Siskiyou
County Historical society,
Vayne Ralston, installed the
new president, James McNeill;
vice president, James Hartley,
and secretary, Josephine Kin
ney. During the business session
presided over by the new pres
ident the curator reported that
9,350 visitors had signed the
register, but noted that at
least two hundred had failed
to sign while visiting. Visitors
were asked to view the chang
ed DAR show case which
holds interesting items.
Fred Stratton, membership
chairman said there were now
1038 members. The aim is for
1500 members by the end of
this year. Each member of the
heirloom group is asked to
bring an heirloom to the next
meeting, January 24 at the
