OTHER CITIES IN THE SAME FIX.
Medford is nut tins only place struggling with a water
problem. San Francisco has been wrestling for years
with the question. The J Jay city has been bled for decades
by a corrupt corporation that maintained its grip through
bribery and corruption. Now, however, citizens are about
to throw off the yoke and bring water 170 miles from the
Heteh-lletehy and Lake Tualumne at a cost variously
estimated at from p),0()0,0(K) to .$70,000,000.
Los Angeles is bringing water 210 miles from Owens
river at a cost of $2:i,000,000. The amount available is
200.000.000 irallons daily supply. JJolh of these cities have
been engaged for years in settling the preliminaries, and
arrangements are not concluded yet.
Eugene's water supply is still unsettled. The city re
cently voted to purchase, at a fat price, the present dis
tributing system, but the bonds have been held invalid and
the proposed plans for a gravity system shattered.
Grants Pass has a system of private ownership, which
is very unsatisfactory, and discussion is rife over the pur
chase of the old plant by the city or the construction of a
new. 1 ""At
Countless other cities are in Ihe same fix, and the only
satisfactory solution seems to be to do as Medford is doing
issue bonds and purchase an adequate simply of pure
mountain water, no matter what the cost, but care should
be exercised to see that the supply is adequate for present
and future needs.

(Sacramento Bee)
United StateH Ht-nator Albert J. Bev
eridge delivered a speech at Young)-
town, Ohio, on Hatunlav last. It wis
published in The Bee fir that date T
wan its keynote, hi the lunguigo
Senator Iteveridge:
We uro midway in an historu move
rnent for righteousness written into
taw. Shall that moment he carried
out or wrecked f Its concrete express
loll is the Itoosevelt policies. Kh.lll th
he saved or lost t
right.
Shall the Roosevelt policies be savid
or lost; shall the historic movement
for righteousness which has com -j to
he known us Itoosevelt ism hr earrie 1
out or wrecked.
That is the dominant question j-efoie
the voters of this country today.
That movement had its (Jei.esU in
the great bruin, prompted by the hu
mane heart, of William Jennings Bryan.
Ita Chronicles wero entrusted by The
People to the hand of Theodore Hocse
volt, who has written the firs', chapter
of its Acts and stopped his wor.(.
Shall the completion of those Ai'ts
and the conduct mid elucidation of the
Revelations yet to come be entrusted
now to the hand that wrote the (ienesi'i
of this great movement f
Or shall it pass into the h ind of the
unbeliever, the scoffer, and the enemy
into the hands of those, who repud
iated its Pentnteuch, and in Bf.lemn con
clave by an overwhelming majority
repudiated all its Acts?
Beveridge has stated the vita, (pies
tion well.
It could not have been stated better.
PAFERb NOT CONFIDENT
( Sacritinetilo Bee)
Colliers Weekly is for Tuft, and yet
would it not be at nil surprised to see
Bryan elected.
It says Tuft's chances aro the better
at present which tunny republican
journalists at heart doubt but that al
most anything can happen between now
and the third day of November.
There is not a republican paper of
any sense within the United States
that is today making a positive claim
of success for Taft.
Nearly every ono of them openly
admits that the fight is liable to be
anyone 's before November, ami they
earnestly eall upon republican leaders
to be up and doing for the situation
is by no means an essured ono.
Just received, a complete
line of water bags, syringes

Oppose Municipal Plant
Attorney A. K. Ii earns of Jackson
ville and A. ('. Hough of Grants Bass
were in Ashland Friday and Saturday
resulting the records in the city record
er's office. They also secured a tran
script of the proceedings of the city
council in the matter of the eall for the
special electric, light bond oleetiou to be
held in Ashland tomorrow, and also
copies of the existing lighting contract
between the city and the A. K. P. & L.
Co., leaving for Jacksonville Saturday
morning after securing the desired data.
Alex. Knshorough, prominent official of
the A. P. P. & h. Co., and of its parent
corporation, the Siskiyou Power com
pany, was also in Ashland Saturday.
The prolongs of tho lawyers one of
whom, Mr. Renins, is the attorney for
I he Condor Power company, and the
other, Mr. Hough, is the legal adviser
of the Siskiyou Power company, and the
A. P. P. & L. Co., together with the
presence of Mr. Knshorough, started a
rumor that the city was to be enjoined
in some way in the matter of the pro
jected municipal electric light and pow
er plant and that the attorneys were
exemining t he procedure with the ex
peel at ion of finding some flaw upon
which to hang legal proceedings and
ask for an injunction.
Rumors of the possible proceedings
to put a stumbling block temporarily at
least in the way of the municipal light
ing plant were abroad this morning,
and the expression of the taxpayers nud
citizens as far as heard upon the subji'c
was one of surprise that such a pro
ceeding could be contemplated by the
lighting corporation which Is now sup
plying the city. "They misjudge the
temper of the people here1' was the
common way of putting it.
At the local office of the company
not hiug whatever was known of nnv
pro lings in prospect.
It was stated this afternoon to be
the intention of the company not to fil
:iu injunction suit in the matter ef the
I'lectiou tomorrow lint in case the honl
arried to attack their nliditv as well
as the .f.'O.mm authorized in l!H." wuv
