A rumor has been ourront about town that the Southern Pacific had withdrawn its Medford town property from tho market, To ascertain tbo truth in the matter a Mail representa tive Interviewed J. S. Howard, local land agent for the Southern Pacific wbo suited that he bud received no no tice from the company that it had with drawn the forty lots it yet owns in the town of Medford from eule. He waa in Portland two weeka ago and waa in tbe company'a land oflloe and aaw Geo. H. Andrewa, the gonoral land agent for Oregon, and that gentleman mado no mention of there being a likelihood of the Medford property being taken out of the market. Mr. Howard thinks tbe rumor got started from tbe report tbat tho company bad withdrawn all of its timber land from tbe market, whloh It has dono pebding a readjustment, of values. And then tbe coal mine tbat tho Southern Pacific la developing four miles east of Medford was probably another oauao for tho rumor, people taking it for granted that the coal mine would bo tbe means ot giving a big boom to Medford tbe company wonld want to profit by the raise in its town property, but thore aro so few lots and they are nearly all In the residence dis trict and being of no great value there is no llkollhood of the company holding themfor tbe boom that Is likely to oomo.
