(Jaruett as secretary and is pre paring to go ahead with the project. Isetore any proposition can be made to railroad build ei-s or bond houses, it will be necessary to secure rights of way, terminal grounds as well as stock subscriptions, and every one in the Rogue river and Applegate valleys must do his share when called upon, to make the project a suc cess. The railroad will benefit every one in southern Oregon and there should be patriotism enough on every baud to make the project an assured success. It will mean not only a business revival in dull times, but a large permanent payroll, a constant source of wealth, a steady market Tor producers. Be ready. Mr. Businessman, ISlv. Propertv Owner and Mr. Farmer to put your shoulder to the wheel and assist liberally by subscriptions and rights' of way. when you are called upon. In no other way can you assist yourself so much. It is a big job the committee has undertaken a job impossible for the average small town, but Med ford is not the average town, but a live progressive city and makes a go of whatever she undertakes but to make a go of this, the greatest task she has yet undertaken, the united, un tiring energy of a united people is essential. Do your share to make it a success.

Declar ing that unless nn honorable settle ment irf reached the Harriman lins shopmen's strike will be extended to all western railroads, the recently or ganized Federation of Federations, comiK)ed of the shop employes of the entire United States, today formally asked President Taft to intervene. W. O. Wharton of St. Louis, repre senting the mnchinistd, is president of the new organization nnd John Scott of San Francisco, representing the carmen is secretary-treasurer. The federation has an executive council composed of presidents of various in ternational unions. The names of presidents of twelve unions were signed to the telegram sent to President Taft. L SERVI W.T. NEW YORK', April 2X-William T. Stead, the noted English -writer and apostle of peace, who went down with the liner Titanic, has been honored today by the members ot the Men and Religion Forward Movement, who held memorial services in his behalf in Carnogio Hull hero. Jlishop William Hell of Loa Angeles presided. The service, were held in place of a meet ing of tho organization which Stead was to have addressed, and to attend which he was on his wny when he went down with the Titanic. One of the most distinguished audiences ever gathered in the great auditorium was present to honor tlio writer's memory and hear the eulogies. First of the Aliens on Trial. IIILLSVILLK, Va April 23. In tho saino court room where a little more than a month ago tho Allen cliuiBinen shot down Judge Masslo, Commotnycaltli's Attorney Foster and throo court attaches, Floyd Allen was called to tho bar today to stand trial for tho part ho Is alleged to have played in tho celebrated tragedy. Judgo Waller n. Staples of Itoan olco, who was appointed to conduct tho circuit made vacant by tho trag ic, death of .ludgo Masslo, sat on the bench. Immediately after court convened arguments wore begun on petitions looking to a chango of venue. THERE is liiourninjr in the standpat ranks of Jackson county. The official count shows that its favorite son Dr. J. M. Kcene litis met defeat for the vice presidency and that at the hands of the chief insurgent of them ail Fighting Bob La Follette himself. La Follette's name was written in for vice president by 5S republican voters, thus distancing the genial doctor, who. however, was sec ond in the running. Jackson count v, as the banner insurgent count v of Oregon, could not be expected to elect a standpatter, but it must not be inferred from this that the standpat strength of Jackson county is under 58, although it is nor much greater, but it is simply due to the demoralization that has overtaken the grand old party the lack of organ ization. Had Dr. Keene organized for the campaign he would undoubtedly have made a much stronger run! Dr. Keene says that it was a ease of the office seeking the man, that he didn't want it, but that under the fool laws it might have been forced on him. just as it was forced upon Koosevclt in 1000, and led him into no end of trouble. He is very thankful for his narrow escape from the spotlight as Teddy's running mate or at least affects to be. As the vice presidency is commonly the grave of political ambitions he is iiot yet ready for burial. ' In not plumping for DjI Keene Jackson county lost a fine chance to advertise- both herself and the Oregon sys tem. The state delegation to the national republican con vention would have been forced to present Dr. Keene 's name for consideration, and to vote for him, and if not successful in securing his nomination, would at least have thereby attracted national attention. It is gratifying to local pride to note, however, that Dr. Keene led by a wide margin such formidable candidates as Roosevelt himself, Cummins of Iowa, Borah of Idaho, Beveridge of Indiana, fulkey of Portland, his especial tnend, tiie redoubtable IJinehot, K V. Carter ot Ashland and the popular Ed Root. , ... SCANT COMFORT FOR PROGRESSIVES. J- CENTRAL POINT ITEMS. 4 To Attend Reel Cross Conference. DBItWN. April 2 a. Tho Gorman delegation to tho International Rod Ci-osb conference, which Jb to meet in Washington next month, departed to day for tho United States. Tho dele gation Includes llaron von Pfuhl, president of tho German uranch of tho Red Crpss, and a distinguished cavalry general; S. L. Bornholmor, a member of tho export commission of tho Gorman Rod Cross society, and Professor Kemmlo, tho founder of tho Red Cross training school for girls fit, JfQhouJychen. PRIMARY election returns in Oregon give scant com fort to the true progressive. The selections of Koose vclt for president, of Selling for .senator, of (he unspeak able Lafferty, pursuer of school girls, for congressman, arc disappointing, to say the least. The triumph of Roosevelt all through the country has been accompanied by the defeat of the progressive 'lead ers. Bourne is defeated in' Oregon by a reactionary, Nor ris in Nebraska, and Jones in Illinois, which makes one wonder how Roosevelt's success can be hailed as a pro gressive victory. Had the money been spent for La Follette that was spent for Roosevelt or for Taft, had the AVisconsinite been able to present his cause to all the people as he presented it the last few days himself, he would undoubtedly have carried Oregon, for Oregon is strongly progressive. But he had no money, no organization, no sneakers but him self. The defeat of Jonathan Bourne, a national progressive leader, the first senator Oregon ever had to attract na tional attention, and who was in a position to be of great service to the state, is to be deplored. Had Jonathan Bourne made a personal campaign, had hd not lived Avithin the spirit of the corrupt practices act, had he spent one-tenth the money that his rival spent, had he even had any material newspaper support to pre sent his case to the people, he would have been nominated. But he, like other progressive leaders, litis for years been the target of persistent abuse, misrepresentation and vili fication by the press. The people as a whole have not yet arrived at the ideal state where merit alone counts, the merit must be shown them and reiterated to them, to off set the calumnies persistently circulated. The nomination of Lafferty, cheap demagogue, shyster lawyer and degenerate, ought to insure his defeat in No vember by outraged decency. Fortunately the opposition litis named an excellent ticket.
