only to acquaint themselves with the
machinery of local school and municipal
government.
Study the budgets printed this week.
If they leave any question in your mind,
ask any member of the school board or
the city council to explain them to you.
Jacksonville is sadly lacking in civic in­
terest and participation, and this would
be a good time for many of us to perk
up and give the old town a break.
Have a Drink on J’ville!
Believe it or not, Jacksonville’s water
supply at the climax of a dry, arid sum­
mer is in better condition than it was
even last winter. Thanks to the ambition
and faith of a handful of local citizens
to whom we should lift a cup of clear,
cold, pure city water in a toast of ap­
preciation.
A few active souls in the Jacksonville
Chamber of Commerce and members of
the volunteer fire company pioneered the
water development which, for a veek,
has been supplying a city that would
otherwise have been hauling water in
trucks. Backing of the city council was
given last week to the watershed work
and any serious water shortage has been
averted for this fall and concrete proof
was given that Jacksonville can and
should be self-dependent so far as mu­
nicipal water is concerned.
More than that, the development of
pure spring water in abundance from
granite hills that for years have been
held in contempt as a mirage so far as
water storage is concerned, has demon­
strated to us that Jacksonville most cer­
tainly has material here to go forward,
to grow and develop as she g eserves.
Seasonal lack of water has seriously
held this city back and the expenditure
of a mere $400 has proven how poorly
founded has the notion been that ex­
pensive Medford water was the only so­
lution to the local problem.
Just as a little effort and a little con­
fidence in the old town have paid wel­
come dividends in cold, pure spring
water, so will other efforts to improve
the community be justified and reward­
ed. With our whistles wet again, we
should take renewed faith in our city
and encourage further improvements,
rather than follow the habitual folly of
condemning every idea that comes along.
With a newly-built flume running
over with needed water, we can look
back any number of years and see how
clearly how foolish we were not to have
developed the watershed sooner. Let’s
not let other opportunities slip by so
that in the future we can look back to
the present time with like regrets.
Turn on your faucet, draw yourself a
pure, refreshing drink of Jacksonville’s
own water, recall what that water was
like a month ago, and thank your living
stars that not everyone who lives here
is carrying a grudge against the town.

Read the Budgets
This week The Miner is printing both
the proposed school district budget and
the city’s estimated expenditures for
1935. School authorities and city offi­
cials have ordered the printing of these
figures to enable all citizens and taxpay­
ers to look over and analyze them at
leisure.
Neither budget, as printed, has been
adopted as yet. The school budget meet­
ing will be held at 4 o’clock Monday, Oc­
tober 29, at which time suggestions, al­
terations and discussion will be enter­
tained by the school board, and a vote
will be taken on the proposed budget.
Any legal voter is qualified to vote on
the measure, which not only arranges
for expenditures in this school district,
but also determines school taxes.
The city of Jacksonville will hold its
budget meeting at 8 o’clock Wednesday
night, November 7, for discussion and a
vote. Those residents having the inter­
est of their community at heart should,
at least, attend both these meetings, if

Don't Vote No on All 3
"Vote ‘no’ on all three" measures on
the November ballot, advises another
newspaper. The Grange power bill, the
20-mill tax limitation amendment and
the healing arts constitutional amend­
ment are the proposed bills coming un­
der this blanket indictment.
The wary voter should reason first,
before making up his mind on any of
them, that if there are worthwhile laws
already written into our statute books,
so is there virtue to be found among new
measures proposed from time to time.
All is not gold that glitters, and likewise
all is not necessarily brass that glitters,
either.
We are not overly familiar with either
the Grange power bill or the 20-mill tax
limitation, but we have perused at length
the healing arts constitutional amend­
ment and, so far as we can see, the heal­
ing arts change would neither injure nor
supplant present hospital standards or
the workmen’s compensation law. In
fact, the amendment is designed to cor­
rect injustices in the very recent basic
science law which placed chiropractors
and other drugless healers under the
thumb of medical doctors, and would
preserve Oregon’s medical freedom as it
has been maintained in the past.
What the healing arts amendment
would do, too—a point which the medical
fraternity has been careful not to bring
out, although it is credited with being
their inspiration for opposition—is to
guarantee medical freedom to the lay­
man. At present the state accident com­
mission delivers its compensation pa­
tients to medical doctors, whether the
patient prefers drugless healing or not.
The drugless physicians—those who
have established themselves as legiti­
mate and effective practitioners—de­
clare they want equal rights with medi­
cal doctors to persue their professions.
Their plea for recognition is worthy of
voters’ serious consideration. They seek
no advantage; drugless practitioners
simply ask voters to take them from un­
der the dominance of their professional
rivals.
Competition is the life of trade and it
is hard to believe the state should grant
subsidy and favor to one branch of the
healing arts which can be used to retard
progress of another. Voters should
weigh both sides of the question for
themselves before they listen to any
blanket plea to “vote ‘no’ on all three.”
The healing arts constitutional
amendment is not a “fast one” being at­
tempted by fakirs and voodoo doctors,
as charged. It is good, sensible legisla­
tion which the drugless physicians feel
they need and deserve. Medical men are
generally opposed to the measure be­
cause it would place on a more equal
footing their direct competitors in the
business of making sick people well.
Medicos—for the most part ethical
and substantial citizens, have had the
inside track in the healing business and
they resent any effort to lessen this ad­
vantage. The drugless doctors believe
healing arts should be made to stand or
fall on their individual merits alone, and
that Oregon’s people should be given
medical freedom.
Any voter would resent the state of
Oregon dictating to him what church he
should attend. Yet, for example, fruit
workers in Medford’s packing houses
under workmen’s compensation who
had more faith in other types of healing,
were forced to go to medical doctors or
to none at all, so far as the state law
was concerned.
Don’t vote “no” on all three! Vote for
the healing arts constitutional amend­
ment and play fair all around.
