An eastern editor suREests that tho spring trout would do well to look out before It swats tho fly. My Idea of a united party Is when tho readers of the Pollco Gazette support the same man as tho readers of tho Atlantic Monthly. Man named Word Is running for sheriff at Portland. If lie's licked twill bo the last word. Now wo hear A. Kerr. . ot a dentist named In a' flro at the Columbia Phono graph factory at London a lot of rec ords were broken. Every onco In a whllo wo write a lot of perfectly slde-spHttlng jokes for this column and a lot of adver tisements come- along and crowd them out. Ed Root is figuring on concentrat ing his support on ono office next primary. Ho says he would rather bo high for ono place than low for a lot. Ono hundred thousand placards reading "beware, hatpins," have been posted In Montreal. The same number of potatoes applied to tho points would bo more effective. 1 wish I were a dark horse, For 1 have a private hunch That when the oats nro served fall, A dark ono gets the lunch. this I HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. ! Wednesday morning tho students of tho Med ford High School Hbtened to a very onjoyable adilre&s given Ijy Mr. W. II. Gore. Mr. Gore took for Ills subject "Student Lire." He told very clearly the relationship between a btudent's life and that ot his after life. Thursday morning Superintendent U. S. Collins received as a remem brance of the class of 1012 a quar tered oak typewriter desk, inlaid with tho emblem of tho class. Tho desk wus pi oriented to Mr. Collins on behalf of tho class by Jako Ware, prcbldont of tho clftbH. Tho work of tho desk wne done entirely by the ucnlor manual training class. Friday morning tho students wore ontortnlnod by two very beautiful se lections given by tho high school or chestra. Also Mr. Bowman, Mr. Col lins mid Mr. Itoot rendered two very flno selections on ocarinas. It was not only good music but a raro nov elty.

SPRINO-J-EAST IT IS SPRING throughout tho oonnhy. Us advent in tho central states lias boon heralded by tornadoes and cyclones that killed over a hundred people, maimed twice as many more and demolished several towns and numer ous farm houses. In the far east roads are little more than rivulets fed by the inciting snows that for months have blanketed tho hills and valleys. A few weeks respite from the icy terrors of winter is vouchsafed before the sultry summer sun be gins his work of slaughtering the innocents. In the southern states heavy downpours alternate with a sunshine already growing heated. Along the Mississippi lie millions of acres submerged and ruined by tho flood, leaving death and desolation in its wake. In the large cities of the east, sickly park trees and lawns wear the pale green garb of early spring. Great skyscrapers, workaday prisons for millions, where specu lators gamble away the resources of the nation, or big department stores, with prostitution the price of their bargain counter economies, make the streets. a dull twi light during the brightest days. Above the heads and under tne ieet ot me ever rusiung, bustling tnrongs, roar and rumble the elevated and the subway, with their packed cargoes of human freight . Skyscraper and palace, glum, tenement and liovel are slung together in strange jumble. Even the spring sunlight pereulates a strata of soot, dust and disease germs. In the great factory districts, where once the sturdy Puritans led their simple lives, spring finds races of for eigners streaming at daylight to toil unceasing through the day in great mills and shops. Boys and girls, men and women, youth and age, malformed and ignorant, knowing nought but toil in their narrow existence, their pitifully small wage's scarcely sufficient to support life a tribute to the beneficence of the protective tariff. In extensive coal belts labor millions litsrht and (lav in the bowels of the earth, never sceiug the warm spring sunshine, growing poorer mentally, physically, morally and financially as the years roll on unceasingly. These, too, are mostly foreigners, imported to take the place of more intelligent Americans. The little boy and his sis ter must also labor unceasing! v in the darkness that the wolf may be kept from the family door. And these re gions, man hi his wisdom, not Godhas placed in the hands of a few overlords of greed. Spring finds the steel workers, faithful employes of the billion dollar trust, working their twelve hoursa day shift in the iron mines or before tho blast furnaces. Sun days and weekdays, for scarcely enough to keep soul and body together. What difference can spring make except the saving of a fuel bill to these victims of man created and government sanctioned monopoly' And in the south, spring finds the little children, while and black, hastening to the cotton mills to toil through the long sultry day, that poor or lazy parents may take their meagre recompense and the mill owners become greedy millionaires to successfully resist child legislation that would diminish dividends. But spring in Oregon is a far different thiuL', esne- cially spring in the .Rogue River valley a haunting dream of beauty, of smiling verdure clad hills, of fields of many colors carpeted with myriads of multi-colored wild flow ers wafting their fragile fragrance, growing grains and waving grasses, of orchards in full robed perfumed glory, of silvery streams and stately forests, of picturesque moun tains and jagged skylines, with the golden sunshine show ered over all. Spring calls for the awakening of humanity to better things for humanity, and Oregon offers the op portunity for growth and progress, by freedom from for mula, from artificial restraints and conventions for the creation and development of a newer and superior civili zation, in which out-of-door life and sunlight and perfec tion of nature will play a jmrfc as it did for Greece in her glory. Think of the east and then, thank God for the Oregon countiy! j , , 28 E One o the feature brought out during the excursion of University club ineiiiboiH to the IJlue LeIge mine .Saturday was the manner in which tho new Model 28, two passenger Diuck, driven by George Kramer of the Hear Creek garage, made the trip. Mr. Kramer took two in the car aside irom liinihelf and made tiie trip throughout without difficulty. On the five mile hill from J of Bar to the Blue Ledge mufh of the dintaiiee was made on the iuterinediato despite the softened condition of tho road mid the many bharp turn, which necc.s taiily demanded slow hpecd. Over the corduroy portion of the road near the mine Mr. Kramer cariied his full load, whereas moit earn are not only unloaded hut are iibsihted by the occupant pushing. , The car made a splendid showing.
