Certain Slanderous Statements Placin g Blame for Uusoasonable Wetness Now
Prevailing in Jackson County Upon a Favorite Candidate for Mayor Re
futed and All Credit Placed Where it Belongs, Upon the Shoulders of a
Celebrated Mascot, Whose Editorial Support Always Brings Victory to the
OUior Fellow.
"I don't wont people to bluiue me
for this wetness," said Kd Root, inde
pendent candidate for mayor, in com
menting upon Judge Ilniiun'a decision.
"Why, it's so wet that the fanners
can't make buy. Hut I didn't do it.
T 'ain't my fault.
Its a Bliton Victory.
"Its another liliton victory," contin
ued Mr. Hoot. "I never saw anything
like it. The Medford Mail wins at
every turn. It's a fine mascot. Just
look at the list: There's (Ins Xewbury
he wus nominated by the Mail, nnd so
w.ib Hlinky and the moral sipuid. That 'b
why (Jus is district attorney now.
"Then, thorn was Sheriff Jackson
and Judge Dunn, who tho Mail elected
to get county patronage, on which it is
(railage, on u,c. "
fat," continued Mr.
likely to grow
Koot. 'And then there was Cake made
into dough. Thero waa Joe Hummers
ley nnd Henry Kubli for whom the
Mail repudiated Statement No. 1. Look
at what the Mail did for them, and
now look what it did for the prohis.
Tell you what, I'm mighty glad the
Mniffls supporting Shorty (larnett in
stead of me for mayor.
"Speaking of Joo llammersley re
minds mo that Jon wns so sure of being
elected thnt ho wrote down to Salem
telling 'em which sent he wanted re
served for him in the house. Why, he
wns cock sum of it. Ho had it figured
out thnt ho was elected hands down,
when Bliton came out for him. And
Kubli, why, there nin't anyone seen
him since election. He's hiding nut In
the brush somewhere.
Stole an Editorial.
"(,'omo out nnd celebrate," snys 1
to Bliton, when we hears of the Mail's
latest victory. 'The drinks Is on me, for
thnt editorial telling the judge what to
do wns Olid T didn't write. The editor
looks around to see if anyone was look
ing, nnd when he sees they wasn't, we
starts down the street, and T takes him
to Bob llalley's pump next door nnd
fills tho dipper. Ho seems kind of dis
nppninted. Then to cheer him up 1

You've often heard folks make this remark: "Jf it
wasn't for eating we'd soon be rich!" I guess eating is the
first law id' nature. What would the merchants and manu
facturers and the millions of working men and women do
for a living if everybody quit eating? Besides half the
pleasure in life is in sitting up to the tempting viands with
which we satisfy our appetites. The people that don't eat
well, don't half live. I 'a says he didn't know what good
living was till we came to Medford and 1 got my job with
Miller & Ewbank. We surely have the dandiest assort
ment of gootl things to eat of any store around. Have you
thought particularly about your Sunday dinner this week?
Then walk down to the store after supper tonight and get
something good to tempt- the man of the house. We're
open till !) p. in.
lJcmemher, we save you money by selling for cash.
to all is our fair way.
