Business Men of Medford IBM Medford is the Most Prosperous City in the Sate of Oregon Leading All The Northwest in Growth Medford has doubled in population in two veal's. Bedford bank deposits have increased 100 nor cent. i Medford postal receipts have increased in two years 100 per cent and show a monthly increase of over oO per cent leading all cities of Oregon. Medford railroad business has more than doubled, in creasing faster than any city in Oregon on the llarriinan lines. i Property values lmVc increased more rapidly in Med ford than in any oitv in Oregon. - ' Medford has paved'.-lo miles of oitv streets, constructed a $500,000 water system, a $100,000 sewer system, leading all cities of its size iii municipal improvements. Medford is doing more building, both business blocks and residences, than-am city in Oregon outside of Portland. Medford in two years has passed both Ashland and Omuls Pass, both "dry" towns. iModford is a high license city, saloons paying $1000 a year license. Neither Grants .Pass or Ashland derive any revenue from the sale of liquor, yet seven blind pigs were raided in Grants Pass. Medford 's prosperity may not be duo to its being "wet," but any change which involves a rearrangement of condi tions, such as prohibition, means a halt in progress, a slump in values, and business stagnation for an extended period, at least until the readjustment, is completed, and perhaps iudofiuitolv. .

HOT SHOTS WORTH READING! A vote for principle la never lost. Rather vote for what you want, and not get It, than vote for what you do not want, and then kick about it. Any people or any class who wait for llborty to be handed down to them from above, will forever re main enslaved. No man who Jb prejudiced Is, or can be freo. Charity is not justice-grading. -it Is do- " How can a man get wealth who does not produce it, unless someone producing it does not get it? our Wo (socialists) know that present business methods made pau pers faster than charity can relieve them. He that will not reason Is a bigot; he that dare not Is a slave. THE SOCIALIST PARTY repre sents the best thought of an age teeming with problems, and fraught with Immense significance to the gon oratlons of the future. Havo you a better solution? THIS DOG, LIKE CAT. C1ES BACK "Jack" Shows Up Again After Short Vacation Often Goes Off on a Trip, But He Never Falls to Show Up Again for Something to Eat. "Well, here I am again," said Jack, the yellow dog who has his habitat ut Warner, Wortmai & Gore's gro cery, as nearly as he could in dog language, as he bounded into the More, barking vociferously, Friday morning. Jack has a history. Ho becume acciuuinted with Lou Warner at the depot while the latter was looking out for the dinner business several months ago, and recognizing him as prstty good people, adopted him. From that on Jack was there at ev ery train, watched the trucks and incidentally took care of the busi ness. Finally ho drifted down to the store ami inudo his headquarters there. Twice has he heen claimed by different parties and taken pro testing away, but each time he has returned Joyously to tho Btore. Last evening ho was claimed and taken away with a rope aroaad hin neck, but this morning he showed up bright und ehrly with an appetite wmen might have been the reason of his desertion of his latest master. POPE PIUS IS REPORTED ILL Physician Urges His Holiness to Cancel All Audiences for Period of Two Weeks, But Pontiff Re fuses to Do So. ROME, Nov. 4.

Dr. Marcia Fnva to day urged his holiness to cancel all audiences for a period of two weeks, but the pontiff refused to uccede to the request.
