will only partially relieve the complaint
about the unsatisfactory mail service
from Portland since it was transferred
from train 15 to 13. If the public will
keep up voicing its protests perhaps
Southern Oregon will get full justice in
the matter by and by.

Henry Lewis, a pioneer, who has
lived in Jackson county for 42 years,
has the honor of being one man that
attends strictly to his own business.
He lives on a ranch nine miles east
from Ashland and has been in Medford
only twice during the past 42 years,
and both of those times were in Sep
tember this year. He very seldom
leaves his home.—Tribune.
A delicate operation was performed
at the Ashland Sanitarium last Mon
day by Dr. Norton, a .specialist from
San Francisco, upon Mark Hurst of
Medford. The patient was operated
upon for hernia and the removal of the
prostate gland. A new anaesthetic
tropa cocaine—was used, which para
lyzes the nerve centers without taking
away the consciousness of the p itient.
This anaesthetic is new to medical
science, being used differently than any
other anaesthetic known. It is injected
hypodermically into the region of the
spine.

elers over the Southern Pacific road.
