The new company will hold the Scenic,

The Scenic property is now being exten

retarv Hitchcock upon the recommen
dation of U. S. Di st. Atty. Heney, who
is conducting the prosecution of land
frauds in Oregon. Special agent Neu
hausen went to Roseburg on Jan. 8 and
took charge of the land office there which
he will conduct at least until after the
invent gat ions have been com, leted and
the old officers reinstated or new ones
appointed. New locks have been put on
the land office doors and every precau
tion taken by the government officials
to prevent any thwarting of the ends of
justice.
Altho’ this action has been rumored
for some time it comesas quite a surprise
to the people in this district on account
of these offiicials being so recently re
appointed to these offices. These of
ficials were removed by the recommend
ation of Mr. Heney, because in his
opinion, they like Mr. Hall, were able to
"thwart the ends of justice.”
We hope that Messrs. Bridges and
Booth will be able to prove their in
nocence of any wrong-doing and will be
reinstated in due time.
There has been a change in the express
business of the city during the last week
or two and now instead of the local office
receiving and dispatching express pack
ages twice a day via the Rogue River
Ry., as they have done for a number of
years past, they receive and send ont
express on the early morning stage only,
which arrangement doesn’t seem to suit
the officers of the local office or the
patrons either yet it seems as tho' there
is nothing to do but "grin and bear it”
hoping that a better and more satisfactory
arrangement can be made in the near
future, for, with the amount of business
of that kind that is done here it seems
that the Wells Fargo company should
endeavor to make a more satisfactory
arrangement for the accommodation of
their many Jacksonville patrons.
Two freight cars, bearing the cream of
Wisconsin's educational exhibits at St.
Louis, are on their way to Portland,
where the exhibits will be shown at the
Lewis and Clark Centennial.
A most interesting feature of the Lewis
and Clark Fair will be a miniature re
production of a complete mine in opera
tion, with its tunnel, shaft, hoist cars
and track, drills, stamp mills, and camp.
The Alaskan exhibit at the Lewis and
Clark Centennial will show a complete
display of fisheries, mines, and oils, to
gether with various curios from the time
of the Russian occupation.
On account of the large acreage of
water at the Lewis and Clark Exposition,
special attention will be given to water
sports. Mimic navel battles, on a scale
impossible at previous Expositions, will
be held during the Fair.
The Oregon Territory, which Lewis
and Clark opened up to settlers a hundred
years ago, when they made their expedi
tion, which will be commemorated at
the Lewis and Clark Fair, had a popula
tion in 1900 of 1,093,44). In 1890 the
population was only 747,524.
The exhibit which Missouri will send
to the Lewis and Clark Exposition will
be one that could not be duplicated for
>300,000. It will consist of the cream of
Missouri’s display at the Louisiana Pur
chase Exposition, supplemented by an
elaborate display collected for the West
ern World’s Fair.
The order of the United States Govern
ment removing duty charges from all
imports for the Lewis and Clark Exposi
tion has now gone into effect. While
exhibitors from foreign countries will be
permitted to import their wares duty free,
the strictest regulations will be enforced
to see that the order is not taken advan
tage of by smugglers
