before Justice Dox Wednesday morn­

Readers of the Medford papers have
been treated to a “wordy newspaper
war” as to whether certain sewing ma­
chines belonging to the public schools
were or were not repaired at the ex­
pense of the distrie t. It reminded one
of the king who marched his men up
the hill and marched them downagain.

were: Orpha Ager, Rosie Singler, Hil­

rich, Verna Howey and Ronald Howey.
The road to the Blue Ledge mine is
reported in very bad condition and
needs immediate and extensive repairs
if the hauling of ore is to be continued.
The road districts have raised a consid­
erable fund for this purpose and ask
the county court to duplicate the
amount from rhe genera! road fund of
the county. An effort is being made
to have the state contribute a like
amount, which if done would suffice for
present needs. It is evident that in
the near future one of two things must
be done if the mine is to continue oper­
ations, viz: the road wiil have to be
hard surfaced or a railroad will have to
be built to the mine.
