F ON PROGRAM IBI IAL ONCK again .Memorial tiny, with its reiuemhranco Tor loved onos and honor for aged soldier, draws near. From a purely patriotic holiday it is becoming more and more a day wiion all tho people of this groat nation pause in their work for a hriof poriod of timo at this most boauti ful soasou of tho year, to pay loving tribute to tho doail. lCvory nation in noarly ovory ago has obsorvod simi larly some day eaoh t yoar. Tho tiiiio tlio Romans sot apart was:from .FebvpaVy 13 U 12 1 :,th6y tiallod this Koralia. All work as far as possible was set asido, and foodof all kinds, and wroalhs of flowers wore plaeod on the tombs. In Chjna and. Japan there ovists tho aneiont festival known as I ho Feast of the Lanterns. On this day those who have passed on. thoy believe, oomo baek to visit their friends here, and -when tho evening eomos a little noai, with a lighted lantern, is launched on the seashore, to take the soul baek to the spirit land. The dour des .Mort in Franco is tho day tho French cover with flowers tho graves of their friends and rela tives. L'p in the Alpine villages, wreaths of evergreen and flowers are woven, and these are placed on tho graves All Saints' day. Jn the evening a lighted lamp is placed at the foot of each friend's grave. In England tho last resting places at both Faster and Whitsunday are cov ered with flowers. Throughout the continent one part of All Saints' dav is alwavs devoted to decorating tho graves. Two claims are made for the origin of tho day wo celebrate in the United States. One claim is that in lSb'7. ("lloiieral John B. .Murray of Waterloo, Nr. V., inaugurated this beautiful ceremony in his home tewn: the other is that in tho spring of the same year the ladies of Colum bus, Iiss., in" their hope of a reunited country and in a spirit of womanly tenderness, strewed flowers upon the graves of both federals and confederates. In 1SUS the commander-in-chief of tho arniv gavojmt a general order asking the remaining veterans to cherish and garland the mounds of their brothers. No dav is more f rough! with sentiment and sad mom- ft vl ories than Memorial dav, and no holidav should be more free from irreverent sports and the burly burly of a work-a-dav world. Socialism Versus Scientific Money Fitting obsorvanco of Memorial day, Thursdav, May 30, will. be held by the Chrator A. Arthur Post.tG. A. 11., Medford, the preliminary arrange ments for which have- been complet ed by the committee in chargel The, day will Include exercises at the city. park and cemetery and a parade. lu the forenoon members of tho G. A. It. and Relief Corps will meet at G. A. It. headquarters, Anglo opera house, at 9 o'clock and march to the cemetery to decorate tho graves of tho soldier dead. The old soldiers ask that all flowers possible be given to pay a last and tender trib ute to the dead. In tho afternoon at 2 o'clock the parade will form at the Angle dpera house on Main stroot, and march to the city park, whore the principal ex ercises of tho day will be hold. The, short distance of the parade is made necessary by the dosiro to place no extra strain on the veterans. Tho marshal of the day will be Wes Lawton, and tho Una of march will comprise tho follewing: Police of city, Medford band, Mayor Canon and city council, Oregon National Guard company, six young ladies in special uniform, Boy Scouts, acting as hon orary escorts of tho G. A. R., school children, fraternal organizations, the firo department ami citizens. Tho program at tho city park will consist of decoration of monument to tho unknown daad of tho civil war, reading of gonoral orders, Lincoln's bund, and bocauio of the size of the speech at Gottynburg, a rending by Mrs. Dr. C. Ij. Foley, the oration of tho dny by the Itev. Olln Kldrldge, and patriotic and war timo music by tho baud. 'During the day a dinner will bo served by the Relief Corps to tlio veterans. Memorial Horvices will bo also hold in Christian church Sunday at 2:30 o'clock, which the G. A. R. and Roliof Corps will attend In u body. It Is oxpoctod that a numbor of vetorans from Roguo River points will attend the exercises lu this city, The socialist theory of money ex- pres-cd by Mr. Caldwell is as crude and irrational a Mr. Seott's tlieorv nf interest and banking. Common tcm-e tells any one even of humble.-t experience that he innt have money nr wealth oT some kind to exchange for moilcy iu order to tve. It is equally plain that for the ex change of wealth there mu.t be n standard of value in which to express price to facilitate exchange and fix the amount of indebtedness for de ferred payments. Value is created by human neces-i-ties and desires and fluctuates with the intensity of and the difficulty of satisfying necef-ities and desire. AH commodities fluctuate in value with tlio changus in supply and de mand, and the money standard fluct uates in value by the same law of supply and demand explained by the quantity theory of money the quan tity of money in circulation compared with the demand for money make-, it abundant and cheap or .-enrec and dear the same as (;ys or wheat. A measure that fluctuate i- a ms nnmer. iirnitiiciin' elunw iiml iim-i r . tainty in-dead of order and st.ilnlit I If powor was given tn men ioicetd' from the view of law or public tn ehunge the yard, pound, or bu-hel t will, it would he perfectly clear thit no one could transact buMiies wit i nnysecurity at all. A contract for a million bushels of wheat in m day might make or break the dibtor according to the .size of the biixh on the day of delivery. Money under the gold standard I -precisely that defect as a muMfi of value and all deferred pau:e t fluctuate with every change in the supply and demand -of gold coin j, circulation; mid it clinuges the ;il t of all wealth at the lit price , th same proportion u.s deferred p.i-ments. Communications on the Public Market To tht! Editer: I thank you for advocating and working for the pub lic market, and hope It will bo a SUCC083. So there Is whero the shoo pinehos, when- grocers ceased to ad vertise becnuso n newspaper cham pions the cause of the public. That Is the first slap at the murkot in a roundabout way. "What good or harm will It do? It won't cause a good paper to turn against a good causo to boycott the papor. . I,. I). ACKLKV. . yMttuxor'd. r To tho KditBr: Kvery one should read tlio editorial In the Mall Trib une of May 20, "Grocers and the Public Market." If you do not take tho Tribune buy a copy or borrow your neighbor's, but read tho article. Surely the farmer favors a market for his products. Surely the con sumer wants his vegetables fresh from the garden. The consumer gets his fruit, vegetables, eggs, butler and such ltko at first cost, frexh frpm tho farm. Ask the people of Seattle what the public murkot Is to that city. So ouo can realize tho real benefits of a good public market until they see It tried. Kvery one will bo benefited by It. .Producer' stand by tho Mall Trib une. Consumer, show your appre- aluliqnJhy support, of the paper that advocates that which will help you and every one olse.
