THE PUBLIC MARKET. Was there ever a Candida to who didn't intimate that he was sacrific ing business duties for tho public good? A friend sends in this daffydil: "If Aldenhngen doesn't get tho votes In tho third ward, why Summer ville." If race suicide conditions continue In France the day will come when American heiresses will have to seek clscwhore for titled husbands. THE CITY COUNCIL is to bo commended for under taking tho establishment oC n public market. !lt. will rank among that body's best aehieyemenls. a substantial benefit to the community, to tho surrounding country, to producer and consumer. Commenting upon the market question, tho Portland Telegram makes a few remarks that can be applied to Medford as well as Portland. It savs: In Madison, Wis., where a genuine public market was recently established, communication was opened directly with the fanners. They were invited to send forward their supplies and the city administration acted as the middleman between the producer and consumer. The successive stages then are, first, the farmer; second, easy and cheap means of communication; third, nominal cost for stands, and fourth, direct dealing between the pro ducer and consumer. If it were known that the small producers could get their products directly into the hands of tho consumers with the certainty of a reasonable profit, there would be a wonderful stimulation to production in this vicinity. But many of the producers have received no encourage ment. Having shipped their products they got no return commensurate with the cost and effort of production. Therefore in many cases fruit, for which there was a great demand, was simply allowed to rot on the trees or ground. If wo hope to get good prices for land tributary to the eitv, assuredly it must be upon the basis of what it produces, unless the purchase is made purely for specu lative purposes. Everything within reason can be raised, and there is genuine demand for everything that can be raised. The problem of bridging over at the least possible cost the gap between the producer and consumer is one that is being forced upon every community. Lt is the duty of every community to face and solve the problem. Its solution is possible everywhere, here as well as Madison, if it is sincerely and intelligently attempted. No city could be more advantageously situated than this city to got the very best and choicest products at the most reasonable rates. Immediately about us we can raise everything. "With the natural conditions entirely in our favor, we should set ourselves heartily to work to solve the most important municipal problem that eon fronts us.

EXPERTS at the government laboratory at "Wausau. "Wisconsin, announce that they have succeeded in making paper from hemlock, jack-pine and spruce, llere tofore spruce alone has been used, but the pulp manufac tured from the mixture of the three has been found satis factory, and paper is now being made. Tests conducted a few months ago at the Lebanon. Oregon, paper mills proved that the Oregon jack or black pine, as well as fir, made excellent paper. - As thousands of acres in Oregon are covered with this otherwise worth less timber, paper making must some day rank among the great industries of the state. If the railroad companies grant a reasonable rate to paper manufacturers, a large paper mill will be established- in this vicinity. This will furnish a market for fir and jack pine that cannot be manufactured into lumber and shipped east at a profit, as sugar and yellow pine can be. A paper mill will mean a large pajToll. It will furnish a market for one of our natural products. It is one of the enterprises we must secure in order to perfect our devel opment, but in order to secure it, a rate must be made that will enable the mill to ship to San Prancisco as cheaply as the Oregon City mills do. It is to be hoped that the new regime on the Southern Pacific will prove equal to the occasion and materially assist in upbuilding this section by encouraging enter prises as they never have been encouraged in the past. UNDERWOOD A CANDIDATE. r DENVER, Col., Nov. 22. Tho Jury In tho trial of Gertrude Gibson Pat- to'rson, charged with tho murder of her husband, was sworn today, and tho opening statement In tho case vyns delivered by tho state. Judge &. H. Hilton, counsel for tho defense, probably will mako his opening state ment next, after which tho state's oVldonco will bo Introduced In an offort to try to prove that tho do fondant killed her husband out of sheer dculro to bo rid of him. She claims self defonse. Patterson's death, tho stato main tains, was tho culmination of his wife's repeated threats to kill him If ho persistod in his determination tb'suo Kmil Strouss, a Chicago cloth ier. She claims Putterson sold her to Strouss for S1GQ0. A letter wrltj ton by Patterson to his brother two days boforo his wife shot him de clares thut Mrs. Patterson herself confessed to nil guilt in the matter nnd threatened to kill her husband If he did not change his plans about prpsocutlng Strouss. This lotter Is In tho hands of tho ctato. Desplto what tho prosecution clulnia is a clear cnno ngainst Mrs. Patterson, thoro Is an overwhelming conviction horo that bIiq will novor bp hangqd,' It Is predicted that tho jujy will not convict hor of murdor In any degreo. CONGRESSALVN Underwood of Alabama has declared against the initiative, referendum and recall. Ho represents the reactionary spirit of the democratic party and will probalriy be "Wall Street's choice for presidential nominee in case ITarmon cannot be nominated. Mr. Underwood came into prominence during tho preparation of the tariff bills at the special session as democratic leader. He is a steel manufacturer of Alabama and affiliated with the Steel trust. He clashed frequently with Bryan and repeatedly denounced the Ncbraskan who assailed his tariff program. Mr. Underwood possesses youth, courage and fighting ability. He is in sympathy with big business and would undoubtedly have the support of the old-lino politicians of both parties. In all probability, he will be more or less formidable as a "solid south" candidate at the national democratic convention, particularly if the conservatives are in control. Conductor Murdered.
