TN KK-ELISCrrrNa Mayor (tonoii, citizens of iMedford hnvc shown tliiMr appreciation of J'aiihful service in (ho past. Three good men have been elected to the coun cil and the public generally is satisfied that the al lairs ol the city will be ably managed. Def'ealed candidates are taking the result philosophi cally and there is every reason to believe that the animos ities and factional differences developed during the cam paign will be as speedily forgotten, and the people of Med ford stand united for a greater city. The one thing that looms big on the horizon is the fu ture of iMedford and the Rogue River valley. How to de velop our resources, how to populate our vacant hillsides, how to open our mines, to manufacture our timber, to quarry our granite and marble these are the things worth while, that call for all the energy, all the ability, all the effort that an enterprising, progressive community can put forth. For this result, let all forget factional 1'eeling and elec tion ill will and work together so that each may prospei as the community prospers. Let each do only those tilings that make for the betterment of Medford, remembering that strife and discord and knocking never developed any place. The country having been saved again, for another twr years, all of us can return to our work and resume oui task of creating a city. r Fifty Years Ago Today. Jan. 11.
