WEEKLY OREGON STATESMAN, FRIDAV, sURCH 23, 1900. EE POET IS FALSE GRAXTS PASS DESI8 HATIXO gcoiKGE or siuixrox. T IUe I Cader THorofI Control and Ther Is SId to D Xo Paager from Infection. ; (From Daily, March 23d.) Many of the papers of Western and . Southern " Oregon have repeatedly call ed attention to the fact that ,Granrs Pass, county scat of Josephine county, had:smaIlpoi, arid some of the towns in that vccon of the country hare even gon so far as to quarantine against -that': -city. A. E. Voorhies,', di4or jof the Rogue River Courier, published m Grant's Pa"?, in a circular letter to jthe press of Oregon, denies the repotts circulated, and asks, as a simple act; of justice, that the papers of the state give the (own a fair bearing. The' letter is dared March 20th, and the .Statesman gladly gives it place in theie, columns, knowing from a very recent experience, that unjust and damaging stories are too often set afloat by neighboring towns on the merest shadow of an ex eunt -The letter of Editor Vorhies fol lows, explaining the situation- in Grants Pass: - is . "We respectfully call your attention to the many false and damaging reports which are -being circulated regarding ' the existence of smallpox at his place. We hear that in some places we are credited with having a number of cases reaching into the hundreds, and that we are dying at a rapid; rate. One, xf the neighboring towns gives the ; in formation that our militia has j been called out to preserve , the quarantine. Another hat officiously declared a quarantine against us.' jl "The true state of affairs is this:: At the present time there are two very nfild cases, nearly recovered. Their sickness was M no time dangerou?, and was barely inconvenient. However, they were placed under strict quarantine which is ycLfnaintaiticd and will be unlit all possible danger of infection sJta.11 "have elapsed. The cases are in the outskirts of the town and the houses are isolated. It is; the height of-fool -Uhirest'b cosider that -these cases are any probable source of danger tit this town or others. ' "There is no excitement nor agita tion here and -absolutely no reason for any. The utter ridiculousness of r the circulated reports gives reason for the 4clicf that they arc circplated by rival towns for the purpose of injuring our trade, and while we hesitate to ascribe a motive so contemptible, we can imagine- w other cause for the persistent circulation of utter and complete false-J ItOOd. j "If your town is suffering under any delusion regarding this place, wc would le pleased to have it corrected and the truth sifh-stantiolrd.

QUEER ELEVATOR MISHAP" ..) i Five- Men Dropped Seven Stories by j a! Rat Seeking Its -Breakfast. Elevator Attendant Alexander Lun- dcen is the hero of Temple Court to day, and several well-known citizens attribute their safety to his coolhead- cdness and courage. The rapacity of a rat threw the caible off its moorings of the north end of the elevator this morning,' and the car rapidly ascend ed ; to the roof, and then dropped from the "'seventh floor tjo the basement. Through Lundecn's work and the air cushion, the fives of four men were saved. For some time it has becn known that the , rats were especially fond of the lubricating oil . used on the mech anism of the elevator, and a number of times they have caused trouble. This morning at about Q o'clock Frank Geist. Frank Lauderdale. J. B. Phelps and another man. entered the elevator to go to their offices. The car was started, and after the first floor was reached it -began to ascend rapidly, and in a moment it was seen that Lun dern had lost all control ,cf it. When the upper floor was reached the car bumped forcibly against the iop of the shaft and loosened some 'boards, which had been placed across the top of the well. Then the descent Jegan. and with it the boards began to fall. They ca ne down in showers tsn all sides cf the rage, and all the occupants began to believe that their last moment had come. I.undeen, however, remained cool, and with one hand he held to the elevator rope, throwing his entire weight i'nponit, while with the other he nuickly threw out cf the way one of the boards which had determined toforce its way into; the ear. Floor after floor was passed, but the elevator man held on to the rope, not withstanding that the skin cn his hands was being burned off. The first floor. was reached, and the next moment all believed 4hey would be crushed at the bottom of the well. Suddenly the car struck something, arid every one held his breath. Then there was a rebound to the first floor, and there the car settled. The air cushion had dene its work, and in a few moments a rescuing party had taken from the elevator the four men and the hero of the hour, Lundeen: The occupants of the car had sus tained no injuries whatever, with the exception of' Lundeen, whose hands were terribly lacerated. They were all badly scared, however, and it was some minutes before any one of them was able to tell the impressions, he had when he found that all control of the elevator had been lost. An investigation was at once made of the cause oi the accident, and it took but a little .time to disclose what had occurred. A .rat coming out for his morning meal had been attracted by the odor of the lubricating oil, and had gone to the pulley. Just as he was about to enjoy his breakfast the elevator started up, and his body was pulled between the cable and the wheel. The obstruction offered by the body of the rat was sufficient to throw the cable out of place, and the accident followed. It was but - a few minutes before the cable was put back into place, and by 10 o'clock the ele vator was running as usual, with Lun deen in ( charge, notwithstanding the ttrrib'e condition of his hands. -Minneapolis Journal.

OUTLOOK IS GOOD SUMMARY Or SAM GOLDSMITH'S OB SERVATIONS IX TOE VAIXET. II Sara Prospects tor Good Crop and a j Consequent Era of Increased Iros i ! perity Wer Sever Better (From Daily, 'March 23d-) ! "The prospects for good crops and a subsequent increased degree of pros perity for Oregon, and particularly the W'illametie valley, were never better than they are ttes year," said Sam Gol4smith,! the well-known commer cial man, j yesterday afternoon. Mr. Goldsmith ! is traveling salesman for Mason, Ehrraar & Co., of Portland, and his territory includes both sMes 5f the Willamette valley as far south a Ashland. Being a close observer, Mr. Goldsmith's a'ssertkvns here offered are not guess -work, but, on the con trary are warranted by actual conditions revealed by his extensive "observations and his business experience throughout the valley Mr. Goldsnrirh has just completed a trip to Ashland arid he says the grain prospects, oerywhere," are grand, and there is every indication for an enor nuK ; yield. While he unseasonable weather that prevailed during the fall months- retarded agricultural work, es pecially the seeding of fall wheat, Mr. Goldsmith says- the deficit in the acre age of fall-sown grain will be supplied by the increased acreage of spring sown -cereals so that the total acreage of gnrln m the valley will not be below the average. . "In the fruit districts, the prospects for a lull crop of everything are most encouraging, said the observant sales man. ; "Inc prune crop will be enor mous, as- will other varieties, whic smaller fruit and berries will be plen tiful. ; Cattle are in the best of condi tion annul farmrrs are prosperous. Merchants are in good spirits, and are cheerful in anticipation1 of the improved conditions in the; business world tha-i will accrue from a full and satisfactory harvest. Politically. Mr. Goldsmith says the populists and democra-ts are not a-s ag gressive as in the past, and interest in thoe organizations ami the principles they represent, is on the decrease. The visit to Oregon and the speaking of Col. W. J. Bryan, the democratic leader, saya Mr. Goldsmith. Will not be tsnflicietrt to renew 4he spirit of in activity and 'indifference that is mani fested by rive disciples of the whine metal. Continuing. Mr. Goldsmith expressed his honest conviction that the evectors of Oregon at the November eicctxm will most unqualifiedly endorse the ministration, and the treatment and disposition that has been made of all t'l?c groat issues of the day. lie reports ttnat the silver craze m this, iiLatc has been relegated to the grave-" yard of political dehrsions and Rays' Oregon's people are too progressive to encertain, seriously, for any time, the anti-imperialistic theory. WELL REPRESENTED. Editor Statesman: The state admin istration will be well represented in the Marion county republican convention. Perhaps this is only incidental: in some cases it is assuredly so. In other cases. 1 fail to see w.hat advantage is expected to be gained by the state administration in an off year, in taking such a hand in -Marion county political affairs, if, in deed, there is any such intention. It were, more seemly, and better policy, too. it seems to- me, to not mingle to such an extent, or to appear to dictate. in these local matters. Perhaps there is no such intention. hollowinz are some of the delegates elected to the convention whose names call forth these remarks. There may be others: H.

The following paragraph has been appearing of late in nearly all of the Itading English papers, and as a re !t thousands oi boxes of Beecham's t tils have lound their way to the fight ing line in South Africa and a sreat benefit to the soldiers lias resulted. "The proprietor of Beecham's Pills desires us to Mate that he will be plea-etl to -end a 'gratis box of his well-known productions, postage paid, to any in-d.-vidval soMicr row on active service in South Africa, if any readers will evud to St. Helen's an address which w.ll find their absent friend at the seat of war. He has adopted this course in consequence' of having received so many If tiers' complaining that this trrediv-ine cannot at present be obtained at ht front." Mr. Beecham's public spirk is con stantly asserting itself. It was only the other day we read of his bidding for the i manuscript of the now famou "Absent 'Minded Beggar and of the honors which hi town had bestowed upon him as mayor of St. Helem. Small wonder that thousands who have been benefitted by his medicine regard him as- a oersonal fenefactor rather than a ntisty personality only known by rea son of the world-wide popularity of the article which bears his name. .

One day during the last session a stranger went .to the room of the military ; committee and enquired if General Wheeler was in. The affable attendant got into conversation with him and found him. to be some one whom the general would like to sec. The stranger said he had been up to the house two days hunting General Wheeler, and every one would tell him the general was just here, or there. or in the smoking room, but he never could find -him. Said the attendant: "Do you really want to see General Wheeler?" ! "I certainly do," replied the visitor. "Then take my advice, - sif.
