The "Mini From Home" is n com oily Hint Iiiih stood tho tost of repeat ed oiiRiipoinonts in eastern pities, nnd is as strong n drawing card today as it was the i'irM geii.Min it was produced. The public fully appreciates n liijili class production in spite of the many hlurs hurled at the unthinking masses, Tho fault lies with the cheap actor and ninnngcr. Mr. Hodge is an ec centric comedian par excellence., and his supporting oast were without an exception real nrtiMs. Harold ltus scll who played the part of tho grand duko, is well remeinherod ly Minne Miln people lien? as having heon lend ing man in the early "stock'' days of Minneapolis.

RAILROAD NOTES No 20 had to be held a few min utes this morning for one of the lad ies of the "Man from Nome" com pany who overslept. While the rail road company wants to accommodate its passengers, holding trains delays and discommodes passengers who want to reach their destination on time. The stock corrals arc now located at Crater Lake Junction and are ready for use, water having been piped to them yesterday. Their removal makes a marked improvement in the passenger depot surroundings. For tho present train No. 13 will not stop at Ray Gold on flag. Par ties should figure on catching No. il at Itiiv Gold or No. 13 at Tolo, the latter being a flag stop for that train, No. 19 stopping at both places on flug as heretofore. The Southern Pacific company will run steam bervice tomorrow for the Woodmen of the World and Women of the Woodcraft excursion to Ashland, extra equipment will be provided. The Arnold Amusement company arrives tomorrow afternoon from the north. John jr. Scott, general passengur agent of tliu Southern Pacific tarried in Medford between trains yesterday.

The two per cent limit la made In section to Include a county's outstanding In debtedness. Tho general road fund, as provided In section CS2Q of the code shall be used for the repair and const ruction of roads and bridges. However. th proposed constitutional amendment which Justifies the act provides that tho county can only Issue bonds for permanent roads. If tho funds are to go Into a general road fund the bonds would bo Illegal, as the act would be unconstitutional because It would Increase tho county's Indebted ness over the constitutional limit. Tho limit has only been Increased for permanent roads. This money should go Into a "permanent road fund to bo used only on tho building of perma nent roads In the county. Otherwise no bond buyer would take the bonds. No Limit Wanted. Tho most serious defect Is that limiting the Indebtedness to two per cent, and Including in this limit the outstanding Indebtedness already lu currcd In general road work. Kvcry county In Oregon has such an out standing Indebtedness, which though technically illegal, t 111 never be re pudiated. Two per cent means such a small sum that few counties can build sufficient roads with it to se cure an endorsement at tho polls. There Is no call to place a limit upon road Indebtedness. Tho people will not vote too large an Indebtedness, and If they do, the bond buyers will not take tho bonds. Following a period of rapid expan sion, road construction and bridge building, Jackson county finds Itself with an indebtedness exceeding $-100,000 in outstanding warrant. Tho assessed valuation of the county Is 538.000,000. Two per cent would give $7fi0,000. Refunding the wai rants with the proceeds of bond would leave $330,000 or less for per manent roads, not enough for a show ing. The people, by an overwhelmiir; majority, voted $1,500,000 bonik which tho supreme court outlawed. Even this sum was judged insuffi cient. The other bills provide for the em ployment of Btnte, county and city convicts upon public roads. They are good measures, though a city or county prisoner Is not necessarily a convict and should not be made to bear the stigma. ftrungc Hill". Tho state Grange submits two bills by initiative. The first creates a stato highway department providing a stato highway engineer, appointed by the governor, "salary $3600 a yea and appropriates $12,000 a year fot his expense, as does the association bill. He will have general supervis ion of the roads of tho state and is at the service of any county. Tho second is an enabling act carrying Into effect the constitutional amendment providing for county road bonds. It provides for the election of delegates in each road supervisor's district to attend a county convention which will docldo what roads are to be constructed and the amount of money to bo expended, and the materials to be used. Ilonds are limited to 5 per cent of the assessed valuation. The proceeduro provided Is very unwieldy and cumbersome and of doubtful value, and Illustrates how Involved It Is possible to make a simple pro position. As a breeder of discord and factional strife, the convention scheme cannot be excelled. Kvery delcgato will want the expenditures In his own district, and when tho majority forces through a program, the minority will assist in defeating the bond issue at tho election. Illll .Muddles Situation. Outside tho unconstitutionality of three of tho association bills there is no serious objection excopt to the t-oiinty bonding bill and amendment, but this bill alone muddles tho entire situation and will blight good road work in many of our counties. A home rule bill Is all that Is needed and It is not right or fair to attempt to Di strict tho progressive counties to tho limit of the unpingroHHlvo. A county homo rule amendment has been drafted by the Medford Commercial club for hiiIuiiIxhIoii to the people. It Is very brief and sim ple, permits counties to Issue bonds for permanent roads, authorizes county courts to call elections and Is made effective without an enabling act or Interpretation by any court, If adopted, it will solvo tho good roads problem, as far us county roads are concerned. The state must build roads as well as the counties, and there should be no impediments placed In tho way of olthor stato or county. It Is nec essary If the stato is to dovelopo as It should, economically, industrially and socially, Oregon must learn to build roads, learn how to uso them, learn how to maintain them, Then tho people npiy grow lis fond of build COLVIG W 1 HER M Judge Colvig, booslerino.
