Tito liociil NewNMtK'r. (Mill Tribune.) Attention is railed to the remarks printed elsewhere of W. W. Watson to the Ashland Commercial Club re garding the necessity of local support for local newspapers as the surest way of developing the community. The shortcoming is plainly noted by a VlBllOr, mouKn unnecu uj iuv twin munity Itself. The newspaper Rives freely of Us space for community upbuilding. Whether the subject Is municipal im provement or county development the newspaper Is always to the forefront. Whether the subject Is the exploita tion of the natural resources and the attraction ot homeseekers and tour ists by special editions published fre- 1 quently because or lack of proper support, at the loss to the publishers or a campaign to secure a beet sugar factory or a lumber mill or to secure the expenditure of millions In the development of the valley by irri gation; whether it is for a city beau tiful campaign or a swat-the-fly cam paign, the newspaper is always on deck, using its influence and energy for the common good. The Medford newspapers sustain, with one exception, the largest pay roll In the city. They have cham pioned every movement for progress In the history of the city since their establishment. They publish better newspaper than are ismicd in any city of the Bize In the northwest, but the quality must be determined by the support given them. The size of the paper and its excellence depend entirely upon the patronage received, poor patronage meaning a small paper, enlargement following in creased patronag tor newspapers are not not eleemosynary Institutions, and to be enduring must follow sound business principles. The Mall Trib une would like to run an eight or ten or twelve-page paper dally It has the facilities, but not the business to Justify it. When it has, it will gladly enlarge, as it has enlarged in the past. Both Medford newspapers are ln- dependant in the fullest sense of the word and hold to a high code of ethics. Neither is allied directly or indirectly with corporate or other Interests. Editorially both express the personal convictions ot their editors and stand for the best in terests of the community as it is given them to see it. It is not sup posed that -everyone will agree with the policy of a newspaper.' A paper that tried to please everyone would have neither popular respect nor con fidence. The most that can be asked of an editor is that he hew to the line as he sees it,, and let the chips fall where they may.

It does nt always succeed, but it is always striv ing for something for the community welfare and a newspaper that does this deserves hearty support despite numerous shortcomings.
