STRANGE FISH IS FOUND.
Dallas Man Makes Discovery While
at Netarts.
\\ ith each recurring season strange
tales are sprung upon an unsuspecting
public by persons visiting the seaside,
the evident purpose being to gain
publicity for these places of hot-
weather gatherings. This coast has,
however, strictly adhered to the turth
permitting the chips to fall where
they may. To this latter class be
longs the strange discovery made by
A. S. Campbell, who last week re
turned from an outing on the Tilla
mook coast at Netarts bay, where he
caught a fish the likes of which had
never before been seen by the oldest
inhabitant. He has the jaws of this
member of the finny tribe, and al
though he has diligently searched
many works on fishology he has fail
ed to find anything that applies to
this new one. The fish was about four
and a half feet long and was devoid
of scales. It had long silk like fins
and was dark green in color. Its head
was long and tapering and its mouth
was armed with long spear-like teeth,
somewhat similar to those of the
shark. Now name it.—Polk County
Observer.
This is a good joke on Bro Cates.
The critter was a Dallas bed bug.
Wasco County Read Bonds.
A compromise between the farmers
of Central and Southern Wasco coun
ty and the business men of The Dal
les has resulted in a new plan for
bonding the county for roads. The
Dufur Dispatch, which opposed the
former proposed bond issue on the
ground it was “too much Columbia
Highway,” says of the new plan:
“t he agreement finally reached and
the bonds which will be asked for is
$260,000. Of this ainout it is pro
posed to spend $135,000 on The
Dallcs-California Highway, or be
tween The Dalles and the Jefferson
county line, and $125,000 on the road
across the northern part of the coun
ty.
“By the terms of the agreement the
southern part of the county gets the
larger portion of the good roads
money and gets enough to make a
good road entirely through the coun
ty-
“It is not expected to construct a
hard surface road but the road bed
will be graded and then in all proba
bility graveled. And in the road that is
to be constructed across (or partly
across) the northern part of the coun
ty, a part of it which included in the
estimate, is a road that will have to
be constructed anyhow and is one
that is badly needed by residents of
the Mosier section.
"There is but little doubt but what
the bond issue will carry for the roads
are badly needed and about the only
way to get them is through the
medium of a bond issue."—Oregon

Realizing that a discussion of just
what four years of Democratic ad
ministration has done to these United
States would be calamitous, news
paper defenders are solidly lining up
in an effort to cloud the issue by pre
tending that while one party stands
for peace and the other would have
war. But it is hardly likely that even
few people will be fooled. No, one
man nor party can involve the United

STATE PRESS ASSOCIATION.
Jackson County Gave the Editors the
Time of their Lives.
(Contributed.)
It will be many a day before the last
word of warm praise for the hospital
ity of the people of Medford and
Jackson Comity has found expression
in the press ot the state. 1 he enter
tainment offered the Editorial Asso
ciation made the recent convention
the most successful in its history. A
lasting benetil to the association
must result. This fact as well as ad
miration for the public spirit shown
by the good people of that county
has won for them a secure place in
the regard of news paper min from
every section of Oregon.
One feature, entirely incidental and,
we believe, never occuring to Ben
Sheldon and his assistants who ar
ranged and carried out the entertain
ment program, was the interest cre
ated in the ambition of the people of
that section to have Ashland’s normal
school re-established. Discussion of
lhe pending measure for a normal at
Pendleton, brought the matter to the
editor’s attention. The fine impress
ion created by Ashland’s new Lithia
Park and the fact of her abundant
ability to make good with a normal
school located in her midst, so
strongly impressed upon the editors
during their visit there, will work to
the advantage of the Southern Ore
gon school whenever their effort is
renewed.

■
Incidental to the discussion, wc
would like to raise the remark that
one of the best things ever done for
the cause ot Ashland's Normal was
the bringing of the editors of the
state to Jackson County. Both the
magnificent entertainment provided
by Sheldon and his assistants ati-i the ,
culture, public spirit, love of the beau
tiful; in fact every element goi ig to
make up a fine little city of good
homes, and good schools, evidenced
by the people of Ashland, left an im
pression on the large and representa
tive group of Oregon editors assem
bled there which will not soon be
forgotten, and will undoubtedly be
reflected in their attitude toward any
effort to place her normal school on
its feet again.
One. of the most important men
in the state, who was with the news
paper men at their recent convention
at Mdford and Crater Lake, stated
to a group of Medford men gathered
round the big fireplace in Crater
f-tke Lodge: ‘ This is the most val
uable piece of. community advertising
in one 'stunt' ever pulled off in Ore
gon.”
Wc arc not certain but
facts warrant this statement, strong i
as it is. In the first place, the gener
al impression of the people of Jack-
son County, taken home by these
newspaper writers from every section
of the state, is extremely complimen
tary. They certainly made good as
hosts. Secondly they demonstrated
that Jackson County had built, out of
her own funds, one of the finest (
mountain roads on the coast which,
by every right should be considered a
state road and a state job. The trip
corrected a false idea held by many |
of the visiting editors, that Jackson
County had built up the north side of
the Siskiyou Mountains and Califor
nia up the south side. The Oregon
line is six miles the other side of the
summit, which means that Jackson
County has built up both sides of the
range.
The fact that Crater Lake is a won
derful asset to the state, if made read
ily accesible, was impressed on these
men most forcibly and an/ proper
move to secure aid for the improve
ment of roads to the lake will have
the hearty sympathy of the newspa
per men of the state.
o------
Again, the impression gained in the
little city of Ashland convinced us all
that she was abundantly able to make
good in maintaining a normal school
when the one which was once there
shall be reopened by the state. That
school will have a host of friends
among the “opinion moulders” of the
state when it again comes up for con
sideration, especially if, as two years
ago, its plea is carried over the state
by Ben Sheldon, of Medford, through
whose efforts the success of the con
vention’s entertainment was almost
entirely due.

help its cause more than the bringing
of these newspaper men to Ashland
