Sunday morning service at eleven o'clock, Subject ol lesson-sermon, i TJT12 Mail Tribune is in receipt of a communication Prom Benton Bowel's purporting to he an answer to the Mail Tribune's editorial upon Hie MeuTord bridge. It is not printed, as it occupies too much space, contains nothing new and appeared in other eountyuipers before received. It is a queer mixture of legal brief, misrepresentation and appeal to prejudice. It is not necessary to discuss the legal status of the bridge appropriation as the supreme court will pass upon it within a few weeks. Suffice it UTsixy that the bridge money was provided by this year.'s road levy mul the money was on hand when the contract was let. -As regards the, petition of '700 taxpayers, against the bridge, it is sufficient to say that the 'signatures Avcre secured largely through misrepresentation as the result of a personal canvas by Mr. Bowers. The signet's only heard one side of the case and that misrepresented. Mr. Bowel's again asserts the falsehood that the county stands the cost of the entire bridge, $.111,900, when it is a matter of record that the city of Medford voted bonds and the city council authorized "the payment of $13,500, and the Pacific and Eastern railroad $2,500, making the cost o the county $17,900, not $33,900. Mr. Bowers again asserts that Medford has received its share of county appropriations when the facts are that practically nothing from the general fund or from the voad fund has been spent in Medford, though this cit is the largest contributor. Mr. Hewers announced last spring that he would enjoin How Socialism Works Out II I:...).... tin. tlitMl.itmnwt AeAjHA. . day evening mcotins at "-3 aii Ulc onUSG because the county had not built a bridge at are welcome.

He must have lgured that the move would get him votes outside the city and that Medford citizens were fools enough to vote for him and the interests inimical to Medford back his candidacy against their own interests. Judge Dunn is mistaken people of Medford are not lools. To tho editer: Among th IdealH of socialism may be mentioned "nation ulltntton of hind, rolleetlvutlon of capital, orgnnlxntlon of InduRliy by thn slate, public Instead of private enterprise, tho lucn,imlltlH of wealth to he adjusted by taxation, tho o-tcu-dun of municipal authorities, tho establishment of public work shnpR for the unemployed and full political equality for nil, men and women."

Brother Farmer and Landewner: We are about to have submitted to lis, to become a law, and binding on us alone, an amendment, termed 'pecifio Graduate! Tax." It pretends to stand for Justice, Equity and the abolition of "Specific Privelcgcs" and iniquitous "combines," It will c move the tax from nil other "class of properly whatsoever ami place same on our land. If forced on us it will be through the "combine" of a very large class, whose pergonal property furnishes them n living and com petence, who therefore are directly interested and benefitted by it be coming a statute, a very limited class of uridisceniing fanners and land owners and the registered "tramp," "loafer" and "bum." Is this justice? Virtually they say to us, "We can try this measure, und then if you don't like it you cun have it repealed ami pay the expense besides, provided our Trust does not vote to perpetuate it." When the necessity antes for bond ing u state, county or town, these "special privileged" freo boosters, having absolutely no liability for re demption, nud needing all the public utilities, and necessities we do, can voto any unreasonable tax, or bond for tlio land owners (o pay and re deem.

He Is a you"K man of bright appearance and who leaves n guod Impression upon thoso who meet him. Hu Is a practicing attorney, and In every way qualified for tho position of dis trict prosecutor. Those who know him best have full confidence In him. Mr. llanna promises a vigorous ad ministration of tho office If elected. The late Judge llanna for many years occupied tha bench of this dis trict, with mutual satisfaction to both counties. The son gives prom ise of equal success In the lesser of fice. The voters of. Josephine county cannot do bettor than help elect II. K. llanna as next district prosecuting attorney." Following is nn excerpt from an unsolicited and unpaid' editorial ap pearing in the Jacksonville Post of October 19, 1912: "Mr. Hanna, thorenubllcan npmt; nee for prosecutlngutiorney, Is malt ing his first venture In tho political field, having entered the raco upon number of thcjnasCpramlnent, men of the countyrmon who know him personally and who know that ho Is well qualified for the pontioa. "Mr. Hanna Is a native son of Jackson county and has, resided In Jacksonville his entlro lifetime ex cepting the timo spent at college. He is a young man of pleasing ad dress, honest and upright In his deal ings with his fellow men, well read in the law, and amply qualified for the office to which ho has been nom inated." Following Is an editorial which was printed In tho Oregon Observor October 30: "The offlco of prosecuting attorney Is a very important one as readers of this paper of course know. It has been abused during the past years as the voters of course know. The most dcslrablo candldato for various reasons Is II. K.
