PORTLAND SUFFERS FROM
SERIOUS WAVE OF CRIME
r'OltTI.ANir, .., Aug. 30. - Six
holdups, one- disastrous attempt' to
blow a safe, J5 robberies, and scores
of petty depredations committed' dur
ing the punt 2.1 days mark the first
ebb of the wave of crime which threat
ens to break over the city at. any
hour. This record has completely
bewildered the police. Every precau
tion has been taken t neheck the,
rampage of the criminals, but so far'
without result. Each of the crimes '
has been ixirpct rated in such n man
ner as to leave little or' no clue to the
guilty persons. The natural conclu
sion is that the crimes are tho work'
of the horde of professional crimin
als who now infest the city. .
Seldom before in the history of the
local police department has crime
gained such a firm foothold as nt the
present. Although .the department
of police is apparently enpablo to a
man, vet, notwithstanding that fact,
it is nimble to cope with the situa
tion. FINDS MEDFORD MAKING
METROPOLITAN PROGRESS
(). It. Hall, malinger of the Amer

Monday in Medford. "This is my
first visit in a year," said Mr. Ball,
"and Medford is certainly advancing
by leaps and bounds. It is the biggest
small cily I was1 ever in,' and very
metropolitan in character and ap
pearance, It is destined to be a large
town, I believe, for the citizens have
the right spirit and the progresslve
