Medford’s Barbecue.
The republican barl>ecue at Medford
last Saturday was largely attended by
people from all points of the valley.
Medtcid residents said it was the largest
crowd they had ever entertained. The
attendence is estimated at from 8,000 to
10,000. Excursion cars were run from
Grant’s Pass and Jacksonville. Ashland
was well represented.
The barbecue dinner was a success in
all respects. Two beeves and two sheep
were broiled, and in addition to a large
supply of bread and pickles, made a good
noon day meal for the crowd.
The program of the afternoon consist
ed of campaign speeches and music.
The speakers were able politicians, and
stirred up tiie free silver element in
grand
style. The Jacksonville and

Altogether, it was a big day for Mc
Kinley, and as an exchange says, the
question of the people’s choice no longer
excites comment; it is only a problem of
how large McKinleys majority will be.
