Never before In the history of Or
egon or of any other atate, hai aa val
lant, forceful and winning a fight
been made In behalf of education aa
baa been waged In thla atate during
the past few months In support of
tbe university appropriation wblcb
was auatalned Monday by an over
whelming majority.
When the movement wat first In
augurated agalnat tbe university, pol
itics bad much to do with the situa
tion, but aa the real status of things
dawned upon the public mind and
the atate waa receiving a black eye
from abroad, while Washington, Ida
bo and California, aa adjoining
atatea, took advantage of Oregon'a
aeemlng disloyalty to ita own to boost
their own atatea In tbe eyea of new
comers, to the great disparagement
of Oregon. It waa then that Oregon
pride and the Oregon aplrlt came to
tbe front, politics waa lost aight of
and the people, regard leaa of a gov
ernors veto and one or two knock
era of the university rallied to Its
support, and today, with the excep
tion of one email paper, the Sclo
Newa, published in a little Linn
county bamlet of three or four hun
dred, the preaa la a unit in aupport
of tbe appropriation, and every com'
merclal organiiation of any conse
quence whatever, societies of what
ever nature, all the prominent men in
the various walks of life, have come
in a moat vigorous aupport of tbe In
stitution which given assurance that
when the votea are counted in June
honest but misguided men like Cyrus
Walker and Eugene Palmer will aee
education put upon a foundation that
will stand so long aa Oregon ataya on
the map aa a state In the grand old
republic of America.
While tbia fight for educational
Interests has, temporarily, been detri
mental to Oregon's advancement, it
will prove. In the end, to have been
the best tblng that could possibly
have happened, and when the newa
ta spread around the world that Or
egon haa spoken for all time to come
for the best Interests of her sons and
daughters the reaction will come that
will make of this a greater and
js grander state and of the university
'one of the leading educational Instt
. tntlons of the nation.
Already the university is feeling
the effect of the recent great "cam
paign of education," as evidenced by
the fact that, although the prusont
freshman class Is about 150, applica
tions for entrance for tho new year
Indicate that freshman Attendance
for 1908-9 will be almost double the
present attendance.
There la a aplrlt abroad which saya
no man can be loyal to hla atate and
to Its best Interests who Is not loyal
to ita educational Institutions, and
Uhat spirit was manifest In a most
'convincing manner at Monday's elec
tion, Did you ever stop to consider that
utter, abject poverty la almost un
known in Jackson county among
people capable of earning a liveli
hood. There are no able-bodied
men or women begging for a chance
to earn a living. The charitable
people of Medford have but little op
portunity to bestow their bounty. At
the county poor farm are a few old
people who, by reason of sickness,
misfortune or other causea, have
come to, in their old age, charges
upon the public, but that la all. Thla

Mr. John M. Root, at a meeting
of tbe Commercial club laat evening,
addressed some very fitting remarka
to that body on the subject of sanita
tion. We believe that it would be
well for the Commercial club to fol
low out some of hla Ideas In regard
to the matter of the proper disposal
of refuse from the city. The sum
mer months are coming on and a
city cannot guard ita health too care
fully, for, as he said, it is better tbat
the city spend some few tbouaanda
of dollars than to lose one cltlaen
from a dlseaae that owes its origin
to filth.
Medford has to thank the South
ern Pacific Railroad company for the

try. The booklet which they have
juat lasued regarding Medford ta

preciated by the citizena of tbia city.

Anti-Saloon Parade.
Yesterday afternoon there were
probably more children on the streets
of Medford at one time than there
haa ever been before. The Sunday
schools of the city paraded in the in'
terests of prohibition and the atreeta
were lined on either aide for blocks
by eager spectators. It waa a sight
never before seen In Medford, and It
will probably be remembered long as
the first time tbat tbe children of the
city pleaded with the votera of the
county by an immense parade in
which bannera stating their vlewa on
the liquor question waa displayed.
There were fully 1000 children In
the line of march, which waa In itself
of no ahort length. The children car
ried many banners with varloua mot
toa upon them, appealing to the by
standers to vote out the saloons.
Many women were in the line and a
number of the business men of the
city.
Tbe parade waa formed at the city
park, under the direction of several
men of the city, and headed by the
Jacksonville band, tbe long line
started on ita march down Seventh
street. The street waa cleared for
the paraders and waa kept clear of
wagons, automobiles and the like.
When the Nash Hotel was reached
the line doubled several tlmea and
bunched the paradera In a crowd in
front of the hotel. Tbe band then
started to play, and to the tune of
Marching Through Georgia," a par
ody was sung which appealed to ta
voters standing about to "vote th?
county white."
After a ahort program by the ban!
near the Nasb, the tine was again
termed1 and the next atop waa mu ic
on Central avenue. The band played
several patriotic airs and Rev Mr.
i'ell rendered a solo, and waa heart
ily applauded. Upon the completion
nf' the solo and a few sho.-. P'o
gramea by the band the line of march
waa again: taken up and tbe line cir
cled aoutft to Eighth street. . From
Klghth street tbey marched to the
Nash hotel, where the paraders dis
banded, the little children being tak
en care os by their Sunday school
teachera.
The banners carried by tbe parad
era were numeross and were char
acteristic of tbe sentiment for which
the parade stood. Several cartoons
were on banners, one particularly at
tracting attention being a reference
to the so-called Reddy amendment.
Tbe parade was a feature that has
been used extensively in the Southern
states in their campaign for prohibi
tion, and la said to be very success
ful. Each of the persons in the parade
wore a ribbon upon which was print
ed the words, "Vote out the Saloons.
Leading the parade was a huge ban
ner upon which were the words, "We
follow Georgia."
The parade wna conducted success
fully and nothing ot a serious nature
occurred, which was remarkable,
considering the age of some of the
children who paraded. The children
were all membera ot the Medford
Sunday schools.

Bank Clerk Goes Wrong.
NEW YORK, June 3. On being
questioned by bank officials today
about the apparent discrepancy In
his accounts, Charles T. Mulr, the
paying toller of the Forty-second
street branch ot the Corn Exchange
bank, asked to be excused until he
could get a deposit ticket to explain
the matter. Muir went to the base
ment and after writing a confession
that his accounts were short, he shot
himself In the head.
He was one of the bank's most
trusted employee. Tho sb rtage was
about (10,000. Mulr in bis confes
sion stated that bla speculations had
been going on for the paat five years
while he waa receiving teller. Three
daya ago he waa made paying teller
and waa no longer able to conceal
the ahortage.
The shortage Is fully covered by
a surety bond.

HALLUCINATIONS.
ome Singular Instancss of This Form
erf Msntal Disss.
In "The Riddle of Personality the
author. U. Addlugton Brace, analyzing
the hypnotfe treutment of hallucina
tions or Irrational fears that often end
In madness or suicide, says:
Few people are aware of the extent
and variety of this form of mental dis
ease. There Is, in truth, no predicting;
the strange obsesftlomi tbat mny In-,
rade the human mind, banntinp It with
vampire-like insistence. One man. ter-;
rilled by be knows not what, iniiy And
himself unable to cross an open (quice;
another be afraid to venture ontdoon
alone; another to sit In a room with
closed doors; another may feel that
every one be meet Is eylug and crltl-1
cUing him; another asserts that he la
made of glass and must exercise the
greatest care to prevent himself being
smashed to fragments. Such fears
would be ludicrous were tbey not so
tragic.
Particularly pathetic Is a case thnt
came to Professor Janet's notice some
years ago. Mme. P., a dyspeptic, hud
been put on a diet of toast and water j
and. rebelling, was wont to indulge In '
secret in coffee and rolls. These she
found did her little harm, and grndmil-,
ly tho habit grew upon her until finally j
she passed her entire time wandering)
from one Parisian restaurant to nn- j
other, drinking from twenty to thirty j
cups of coffee a day and consuming
Incredible quantities of rolls. At night
If she chanced to wake and could find
no coffee and rolls In tbe house she
would pace her room la feverish anx
iety until the restaurants opened In the
morning.
Somewhat similar to another case re
ported by tbe name authority:
"Here is a young woman, Que, twenty-six
years of age. In coming to see
us she brings with ber a large bag,
and ber pockets are filled to overflow
ing. What Is she bringing with ber
In coming to- os for a consultation? It
Is simply provisions for the journey.
She has in ber bag and In her pockets
several pieces of bread, a few slices of
ham. some chocolate tablets nnd some
sugar. One wonld sny that she was
going to cross a desert when It Is
simply a question of crossing a few
streets. The provisions are In.tlspcnfttt
ble to ber, for, especially In the open
air and fn squares. It is absolutely
necessnry that she should take some
thing to strengthen her. At tho end
of several steps she fels dazed. Ire
comes dlzry, chokes and Is covered
with cold sweats. The dnnger would
bo great If she did not know the rem
edy. AH she needs Is to st rcngthen
herself. Sho cats a piece of ham. puts
a piece of sugar In her mouth and Is
thus able to take a few more steps.
Hut very soon It nil logins again, and
It Is only with the aid of rolls and
chocolates that she Is able to cross a
square. One can therefore under
stand her miserable plight whon ber
provisions run short. She is obliged
at all costs, with unheard of efforts,
to cross the desert to reach an oasis
that to, a bakery. During this terrible
Journey she gets along as best she
can. She may pick up a raw potato,
capture an onion or a few. green
leaves. This hardly sustains ber, but
gives her enough strength to reach a
bakery. In general she prefers to re
main at borne. That to less danger
ous, and so she does nothing else but
prepare and eat food all day long.
For such unfortunates there to little
hope unless they place themselves un
der the care of the skilled psyebopa
thologlst. tbe savant accustomed to ex
plore tbe vagaries of the mind and
able to touch the hidden springs of
thought and feeling and action. Then
and only then will the evil spirits of
obsession be exorcised and tbe strick
en mind find itself once more In har
mony with Its envlroqmeQt
Almost a Dossn.
"Yes," confessed the pretty girl la
the orange hat, be said be was dying

"And what did you say. dearr asked
