A railroad "from Medford. Or., to
Crescent City, Cal., ttie connecting link
between Medford and the sea and the
big London, market . for Rogue Rlvar
valley fruit, is an assured fact, ac
cording to R, a F. Ashburyptuminent
oruhardist of the valley wno is at Ahe
Portland enroute to New York City. ;
."Surveys for the- new railroad were
started last Monday," said Mr; Ashbtiry
this morning, ?and construction, work
will follow end be pushed right along
The road ia being financed ay "I Med

"The road will give us a direct line
of transportation to Europe, anduiils
means' much to the orchardists, as
London is our big market It costs
about one dollar a box to get our fruit
to London now, but after the comple
tloh of the new road we expect to get
our product over, there for less than
nair mat much.
'The Rogue River valley this year
marketed the biggest crop in Its his
tory, and the most excellent .crop In
size and color as .well. Tho increased
production was due largely to the, fruit
of the young orchards which came into
bearing for the. first time.
Prices, however, were not as nigh
as they have 'been, and we blame this
largely on the demands made by th
commission men.. We are now outlining
plans for a general wholesale organl
xation of growers, on' much the same
idea as that followed out by the orange
growers in California. Such an as
oclation, to include growers of the
entire northwest, seems to be our.onlv
salvation from the rule of the commis
sion men.
Medford Is Prosperous.
Medford generally is prosperous. A
new theatre is being built to replace

and other buildings are under way
and in contemplation.. We have well-
organized clubs for business and pleas

Altogether, Medford la . in srood

Measure Cost'Nearly
v $40,000.
Salem, Or , Nov. 16 Close to $10,000
was spent in the recent campaign to
defeat the so-called single, tax meas
ures, according to statements filed late
last evening.
On the other hand, If any money was
spent in support of single tax propa
ganda, no one has filed statements
showing how it was expended. The
corrupt practices act says that 10 days
after the date of election, which was
yesterday, is th,e last . day for filing
statement or expenditures made by
committees, organizations or individuals
not themselves candidates. The law
covering" this folnt, however, does not
provide any penalty for its violation.
Candidates must file statements of
expenditures within 15 days after the
day of election, and' unless they comply
with this provision of corrupt practices
act tiie secretary of state shall notify
the district attorney and candidates are
subject to a penalty of $26 for each
From -the mass of literature" that
flooded the malls during the campaign
it appears evident that .no accounting
is being made of considerable money
that was expended for or'agalnst meas
ures and candidates. On the first day
of November Secretary of State Olcott
sent out notices and convenlent-blanks
to candidates and others who were sup
posed to make statements. -
The Oregon Equal Taxation league
spent In the campaign against single
tax $28,810.06; Slg Stchel spent $4086,
while the legislative tax committee spent
on Its entire campaign $7004.74, but the
committee made its most strenuous fight
against single- tax.
State Printer W. S. Dunlway spent
$2313.22 and C. W. Nottingham spent
$135 in opposing the state printer's flat
salary measure, while Harry H. Hill
spent $350.35 in support of the meas
