THOMOUROW Medford will entertain tho foremost lender of progressiva thought in tho republican party Robert Clarion La Follette.' La Follette is the original insurgent the leader in the revolt against the rule of special 'privilege. For yeai La toilette battled single-handed against, privilege in Wisconsin and emerged triumphant." Not, only as an agitator, awakening the people, not only as a pmu'iier. arousing cue miotic conscience, mil as an ad ministrator, carrying into effect his principles and pol icies, lins lie taitlilully served the nation. No man who does not sincerely believe in and trust the people can expect to be fully trusted by the people. La Follette has been a sincere believer in the people, in their rights and their ability to rule, and in return has been trusted in every high oft ice in the gift ot the people of his state and he has made good. La Follette typifies the ideals of American democracy better than any of our political leaders, except perhaps Bryan, but he has the advantage of administrative and constructive statesmanship denied Bryan. Social justice and industrial democracy are the prob lems bciore the nation. La pollette is ol all candidates best fitted to lead the people along the lines of reconstruc tion a leader of courage, ability and sympathy. Insurgents should not divide their strength' so that a stand-patter may secure a plurality at the primaries but unite in the support of La .Follette. the strongest candi date in Oregon. mi i in:?,' cards (Tata Advertisement.)

Dunn again be comes county judge, how is the fanner to increase the value of his land? Br making it easily accessible he doubles its value, and it must beinade accessible or he is not going to induce eastern people to pay fancy prices for it. That is what has been done in southern California, and should be done with the entire Rogue River valley. Another subject worthv ot attention is the loss of a payroll. "What is the laborer to do to take the place of road work How is the laborer going to patronize the merchant, unless he is employed? How is the merchant to make expenses unless he secures patronage? You cannot put the lid on, as is Dunn's program, with out its resulting in depreciated values, idle men and empty stores. It will affect every one in the community, but no one worse than the laborer. s Who will it profit? Only the 'warrant speculator, who hopes to make a profit upon his speculations. Ts it worth it? The reactionaries supporting Dunn have no program of. development,., none to furnish occupation. They are promoting no enterprise, like the Blue Ledge road, to bring prosperity. Tlioy never did do anything but belly ache and try to prevent others from doing things. Their whole program is one of stagnation. They never did pro mote any enterprise and have fought all along the line against every effort of the enterprising to lift the country out of the slough of despondency. They waste $100 worth of time in grumbling over $10 worth of taxes, and if thev would devote one-half the time and energy in creative enterprise that they put in knocking, they would be so bus' counting pro! its that they couldn't be pulled off the ten percent egg they are setting on. They have been made rich, despite their own obstruc tion, by the efforts of others. What has the county to expect from the rule of such? No wonder Judge Crowell says that the election of Judge Dunn would be intolerable. For Couuty t'li'tk. I hereby niinouaoc my oandiilnoy for republican nomination ns county clerk. If nominated and elected. I will conduct tho office according to law and will treat all patrons court eously. GBHKQB A. CUKDXKH. County llcconler.

Air. Coshow has an honorable record in public life. Jle is a progressive democrat and democrats of Jackson coun ty should appreciate by their support the chance to se cure a senator from this section. Air. Coshow is entitled to, and undoubtedly will, re ceive the solid support of local democrats in the primaries, if for no other reason, because he is familiar with the needs and requirements of this section.
