uishoil artist in black und white, and
liig cartoons have had a decided influ
ence on national affairs, beginning
with tho firnt Bryan campaign in 1 896.
The fart that he was born in On-gon,
jrew to manhood here and in one of
the moat loyal Ori'jfonianH, endears him
to every citizen of tin state. During
the y tiara he hanfM'n prominently in
the public eye he has enjoyed the
friendship and confidence of the most
famous men, not only of tlim country,
but of Kurnpe lis well, Recently Mr.
Davenport has turned bin attention to
the breeding of blooded hirwn and not
long since mailt a journey into the heart
of the Arabian desert to secure the
pure-blooded Arabian horse for impor
tation into the United State. Ho was
received by the sultan of Turkey and
given a royal commission to penetrate
tho wilds of a region never heretofore
visited by white men. He will toll, in
his inimitable way, of this journey. Of

and wns adopted into the warlike tribes.
These incidents and a hundred others
will be recounted by tho distinguished

An added feature of great interest is
the fact that he illustrates his lecture
with original drawings made in the
presence of the audiences. The Daven

interesting affairs of the winter.

something good, but were not prepared

Tho Med ford Publishing company,
publishers of the Medford Tribune and
Southern Oregouian, offer the people
of Medford and Jackson county tho
Hafust and Burcrit of investment, name
ly, first mortgage five-year bonds, bear
ing 6 per cent interest, payable semi
annually. The bonds are in small de
nominations and a negotiable security.
Creeks on any Mod ford bank taken in
payment.
What the loatfs Are.
These gold bonds are in denomina
tions of $5, $1U and $-5. They are in
the form of a popular loan for $4000.
They are secured by a first mortgage
upon the property and plant of tho
Medford Publishing company, compris
ing a daily newspaper, Tho Tribune,
a semi-weekly newspaper, the Southern
Oregon ian and Jacksonville Times, with
the largest circulations in southern Ore
gon; and an up-to-date newspaper and
job printing plant. The bonds are a
safe investment at a higher rute of
interest than any bank will pay and
butter security. They are negotiable
and recommended by loading business
men of Medford as a good investment.
They draw interest at the rate of 6
per cent per annum, payablo the first of
June nnd the first of December. They
mature in five years. Kach bond has
coupons attached, on presentation of
which upon the dates on which it ma
tures, calls for the interest due, which
will be paid by the trustee, the Jack
son County bank.
Why the Bonds ire issued.
These gold bonds are issued to raise
money to enlarge and improve the print
ing plant and to continue the publica
tion in a better form of the Daily Tri
bune ami the Semi-Weekly Southern
Orcgnejuu. Jt is desired to make it
wt ill ncttcr. It is proving inadequate
to handle the volume of business which
the rapid growth of the city insures.
It is desired to make the daily cover
all the towns of the Itogue Kiver val
ley and make it in every way a news
paper that t he cut ire vjillcy will be
pnnnl of. All of the money secured by
the sale of tliene bonds will be invest
ed in the property, all of which will
be subject to t he mortgage given us
security for the bonds, Medford is
destined to be a large city, its daily a
yrcat newspaper worth many times the
original investment.
Medford Publishing Company.
The Mi d ford I'ubli.shtng company is
eoiiii"S'-d of reputable business men of
Mediuid, uho have backtd their judg
tneiit .villi their money. It is iucorpo
whieh only part has been subscribed.
The balance is treasury stock. Of the
rated for itilii.iii'ii capital stork, of
stock already issued, a majority is in
tin1 name of (t. Putnam, editor and man
uger. Then' is no "water" in the
stork, it all represents money actually
paid in. The by-laws of the company
pro i.lo that t he ed it or and manager
alone is responsible for the editorial
and business policy of the paper. The
dircctois of th uu-ern are the follow
"ng well known business men of Med
lord: W. I. Vnwttr, K. Osenbrugge, J.
I'. lfe.hly, II. c. Stoddard, '. K. Kay.
' . 1 'lit nam. K. (i. Sin i 1 b and J. I.
oju.-ll. All of these gentlemen, with
i he exception of Putnam, took stork
merely from a public spirited stand ;
potitt, to serine for Medford a good ;
la'l y newspaper. None of t hem exer
cises "iiy control over the poliev of tin
pap.i. Not a Speculation.
If you are ioouing far speculation,
don't buy these gold bonds. They are
not a speculation. They are an invest
nieut.
These gold bonds will not make von
rich, but they will give you a good re
turn upon the money invested. You will
not put in a dollar expecting to get out
ten dollars, for you won't do it. Hut
vou can put in your dollar and be sure
of getting it nut again with good inter
est also.
Again, t hese gold bonds beat nny
scheme of hiding coin in tin boxes or
stowing it nway in safety deposits
vaults. It keeps the money in circula
tion and helps make times better, as
well as encouraging a praiseworthy en
terprise. It is to the investing, not the speeu
biting public that these bonds are of
feri'd. The best financiers in the city
recommend them.
Tho Paper' a Future.
A great future lies before this conn
try, and before this newspaper. The
ptoperty is built upon business lines
a let run upon business principles. Its
policy is pr.nressj e, forceful and in
dependent. Its manager has had many
