It is claimed that dentistry pto longs life. As has been said of mat rimony, it certaiuly mikes it seem longer. ernor Geer's most formidable op ponent is no leas a personage than Hon. Henry E. Ankeny, the well-to-do mine owner of Southern Ore gon." y The Pendleton Tribune has. brought out W. J, Furnish, a banker of that city, as a candidate, and there are several other sections still to hear from.' While all these speculations as to the probable re publican nominee for the governor ship are being indulged in it is said that Farmer Geer is not becoming alarmed to any eieat extent. This thought is not fathered by a delusion, neither is it impractica ble or improbable an electric rail way from Sled ford to the vast belt of timber on upper Rogue river.

If they persist in ooming, however, it might be well for them to tote along a camping outfit, or at least a hammock. Tub President's chief counselors Have advised him that he will sat isfy the people if he can prevail vpon Congress to perfect the anti ' trust law and to establish the de partment of Commerce and Indus try, and ' it is the belief that this be in a position to supply all neces sary power to operate such a line, while the cost of construction woul l bi very slight as compared with the cost of a regulation railroad. Med ford people, we believe, would be williog and anxious to subsidize a proposition of thi? kind with one condition that the lumber be brought to Mdford in the log. You say this would necessitate the haul ing of a great amount of worthless timber? That is not so. ' Every particle of the wood itself could be, and would be, manufactured right here in Med ford into useful articles of commerce, while the bark could be used for fuel. This is no pipe dream but a matter ot sound logic and a condition which may be the expenditure of money unneces sarily for buildings and equipments in two places. All the fruits and vegetables which two canneries could consume can be 'secured if the said cannery is located in Med ford. Messrs. Pierce & Coleman's intentions were all right for a perma nent Ashland cannery last spring, but when they discovered them selves to be in a plight similar to he man, the dam and the mill, they juBt naturally had to cast about for a suitable mill site and have found it in Med ford. :i . ui -i i ii. ii i -e action will be accepted as an evi- UIOUf ,v " JO" . u , . .fence of good faith and, that before the convening of another Congress, the situatjon will have further de veloped to a point where "the plain duty" of Congress may be made ..clear. Yreks Journal, , i,r-- n ' 'ive the girls the best of edu cation. Let them have a college education if possible. The way to get at the boys of the future is by means of the girls who are to be their mothers. Too much att ntion has been given to the boys and not nnuirh to the eirls. If the boys of a college woman are capable cf re ceiving a college education they stand the best chance ot getting it. The best side of the house is - the mother side of it. If the girls- are put forward the boys will get in the peighborhocd ' The crop of governor, candidates oooma wonderfully prolific these days. Probably never in the history of this Nation has there been a document presented to the people which possessed more sound, logical reasoning than is found in Presi dent Roosevelt's message to Con gress. . There is all in it which commends the man and his loyalty of purpose, together with his de termination fo do right, to every citizen of this great Nation. Even 1 the Democrat press (pave a few jumping-jack nonentities which feel they must give censure in the belief that their scattering local constituents demand it) finds no part of the message which it can pick apart, or flaws which it can de tect; no evil design, not a particle of anything that is not the utterance of an honorable man serving in his own best way a people which has in him implicit confidence that he will do rilit nnd do it fearlessly. The Oregonianin commenting upon the message save; "The thoughtful reader-of Presi dent Roosevelt's first message will to graBp a good thing when tbey see it. - The Salem' Independent he man who seems tri be Gov- A few weeks since the Ashland Tidings found time to say that Mr. Chas. Pierce would probably estab lish a branch caunery in Med ford for the cannibg of vegetables, or words to that effect. As Mr. Pierce bas repeatedly said in newspaper print that his company would make the canning of vegetables its chief pursuit it need hardly be here said that the branch will be at Ashland if there be a branch a propo.-i tion which is still conjectural and decidedly illogical. The necessity for a branch cannery at Athlaud is in no sense practical, while,' after the experience of Messrs. Pierce & Coleman at that nlace last season, the permanent establishment of tub cannery mere wouiu ue dueiiicsh suicide.: ' Two canneries, or one can nery and a branch, as the Tidings would have it, -would necessitate: rise from its pcrusnl with the con viction Unit it comes from tlio sound heart of a man who is sin cerely desirous of knowing what is right and best, and then carrying out his decisions with entiro fear lessness. It is the-product of hon esty and common senso. Nobody need be in doubt as to what the presidont means. Nobody need fear that he will lack the courage to pursue the straight path he sees before him. About many things he is in doubt. He doesn't know what to say about reciprocity, or what method should be adopted in construction of the Pacific cable, or just what wo can do with the trusts, or how to rebuild our merchant marine, or how to strengthen the currency; and when he is in doubt he doesn't pretend to know. It is no discredit to a man that he doesn't know everything. Itjs to his credit if he has sonse enough to realize and recognize it. Yet the president is precise enough when lie is certain in his own mind, for his recommendations as to anarchy, immigration, forestry, army and navy, consular service, national guard, etc , matters with which he is familiar, are plain and positive. He is the leader of his party, but there is no hint in all this long meanage of any purpose or desire except to find out what is right and best, and then to do it. This frankness has little in common with the shifty wiles of the politi cian. But it is the highest politics, nevertheless. He does his purty the greatest possible service when he does the best for his country." For Rent Forty acres o( well improved lanrl ten acred seeded to alla.fa. Will -II hay, Home stock and tools.
