If it i u disgrace, and an insult to be culled n candidate for mayor, the highest office in the gift of the citizens of Medford, then the editor ia willing to admit that Mr. Osenbrngge wua most grievoitHly wronged. In the haste and hurry in which a daily newspaper is created, it is some times impossible to verify all the news that drifts into the office and gets into print. K'ffort was made to verify the story of Mr. Osenbrngge 'a enndi dacy, which was based upon informa tion given by a brother councilman, and therefore deemed reliable. The editor assured Mr. Osenbrngge that The Tribune believed in fair play, ii ml that any correction he wished would be cheerfully printed. Notwith standing this assurance, Mr. Osen brngge, wantonly and without cnuse, struck the editor. Assaulting the editor will not make n particle of difference in the policy of this pnper. When we are wrong we lire always ready to make a correction. When we are right we stand pat. ADVICE TO SHERIFF.

The Odd!, iner postoffi.e. Medf.r.l. Of. tf By Building A good start means much to you. Get off on the right foot and keep going. Don't continue to throw money away by paying rent, when you can own your own home. How much did you pay out for rent during 1907? Stop and figure it out. What have you got to show for it? Nothing but a bunch of receipts. Suppose you had put this money into building a home and buying a lot ? You'd have something to show for your coin, wouldn't you? The same thing holds true in the coming year. Are you going to waste your mazuma all year, and have 1908 net you noth ing but a living? Ask your wife about it, and see what she says. Building is going to be cheaper this year than ever. You can buy practically at your own terms. We sell all kinds of lumber everything needed in any kind of a house from a small cabin to a palatial mansion. We also sell Booth-Kellv lumber. Iowa Bo BUSINESS CARDS. x and Lumber Co. B. R.
