SOUTHERN OREGON MAIL, FRIDAY, JUNK 10, 1692. Carmen .and Transportation The St, touis Globe-Democrat offers Jto the farmers of the country the follow ing cold comfort, .and suggests that they accept the situation philosophically and pease their complaints against railroad companies: - - It ia possibly true that the farmer does not receive a lost proportion of the amount for which ms proaucis are un&uy soia. mere are certain influences which tend to reduce his share in an arbitrary and insidious way, and he is practically helpless. But it is not true, as he claims, that the principal source of in jury is the cost of transportation. The fact Jias been recently demonstrated in a striking jnd conclusive' w ay by the efforts of a St, l'aul f;oper to ascertain why the wheat grower doos faA get more for his wheat when the price in kc ultimate market is so much larger than jthat which prevails in the primary market. The ioveslujtioa shows that as a bushel of wheat goes eastward the additions to the price are much larger than the charges for tattling and handling, ani the price varies at different points regardless of these charges. We cannot concede the correctness of iois proposition. If the price of grain in New York is greater than the price of grain in Omaha, added to the cost of getting the grain to New York and hand ling it on the way, a profitable business could be done hy grain men in purchas ing grain at this point and shippiug to 2ew York. That there is some differ ence might be conceded, and that this difference represents the profit of the regular grain shipper is probably true. In the main, however, the difference be tween the price of grain at New York and at Omaha is. the cost of taking it from Omaha and delivering ft in New York. So far as the farmer of Nebraska is concerned, however, he is not complain ing so much against these transconti nental freight rates as he is complaining gainst the freight rates within the bor ders of the state. It is the extortionate -'local" freight rates within Nebraska jrhich are gnawing at the vitals of the commonwealth. The robberies in freight .rates are perpetrated when freight is shipped over short distances within this state. Omaha World-Herald. ,-" The Preacher Hit It. A preacher addressing a Chicago au dience once said; "You are not intellectually capable of it". (governing). '"You elect to office the worst men, men whom you know jrrfll be easily corrupted; your repre sentatives create the monopolies under jyhose exactions you are suffering. This tipplies literally to nine out of fen Democrats and Republicans who vote the old party tickets and will vote again inis ffear. There is not a bad law upon the stat ute books, there is not a corporate monopoly in existence, there has not been a thefj or a robbery of public land and money, there is not a corrupt man w office but what is the direct result of the ignorant and stupid work of the peo ple themselves at the ballot box. " There is not a single wrong but what can be righted, nor a tyrrany but what can be overthrown by an intelligent ex ercise of the elective franchise. To educate the people and stir them up to the point of exercising their rights s the great work'which reformers should - seek' to accomplish, for unless it can be accomplished our republic is a failure. jpiicago Express. Wyoming faettlDff in XJno. A letter from A. J. Howd, of Larac pie, Wy., conveys the information that - ih People's party is already" organized in that state, and will be in line with the great northwest in November next. A circular has been issued by -the Al bany County People's club, setting forth the tendency of our national legislation purjng toe past thirty years m tne in terests of capital, and the remedies pro? posed by the People's party. . . This is being extensively circulated among the industrial and agricultural voters of Wyoming, and the people are rallying to the standard of the new --- party.

EliBaub jn Nonconformist. ' The Direful Day Is Here. . , If the following, from the West Texas . Sentinel, is true, then the time has come Tor action by the whole people without regard to avocation: r The direful day, foretold by Jefferson, Jackson and Lincoln, when the nation should be in great danger from the op- pression of favored moneyed power, is klready upon us, and-the voice of the people is raised against it not an hour too soon. As it is, the grip of the op-- pressor will not be loosened without one of the severest struggles known to our - 'nation. - The contest will be decided at he ballot box, with a result very disas; rous to oppressive class legislation. ' - Side Track Him. Elias Carr, ex-president of the North Carolina state Alliance, has come out - against he St. Louis platform. It might ' be proper to add that Mr. Carr used the, ' influence of his. office in the Alliance to : pet a good fat' job on' the "World's fair committee, and, like all others who are - ' Jemocrats first and Alliance men sec ond, has gone back on the Alliance when the test came. Item Mr. Carr is ..also candidate for governor, or anything else in that line. National Watchman. '". It 'Is Time. Senator, Stanford, of California, says Jn a recent interview,' "The People's or .Independent party will certainly have a Candidate in the field this (all." . With a national debt of $1.000 ,000,000, an enor mous railway ' indebtedness, half the land mortgaged and the load growing heavier, it is time that measures of re lief be taken. In the west, particularly, he people need moro mone or freer money. Through the People's rarty they hope to get it." National Econo iniat' '.-' . ' - TEXAS IS IN IT. , fne People Are Tired of Being Deceived and Are Striking for Themselves. The Dallas Southern Mercury gives the following good cheer from the Lone Star State.- It Jooks us though it were going to be a "solid pouth" for the People's party: " Tho political horizon an Texas presages a struggle in this year of grace 1892 that for intense bitterness and deter? mination on all sides to win will lay all past campaigns completely in the shade. Already organization in every nook and corner of the state is the order of the day. Befonners are perfectly united, and ire organizing rapidly. They are deterr mined to win at all hazards on the St. Louis and Dallas demands. Their rinks, are filling np with recruits from Ihe old machine parties with such earnest ness and speed as to demoralize the old- time bosses. 'Tis true they are apply ing the party lash right lustily, but it only accelerates the depletion of their own ranks, and results in driving their oldtime followers into the reform army. The cowardly duplicity practiced so long by partisan manipulators has at last born its legitimate fruit indigna tion and rebellion. Turn where you may, and you eee rebellion against "ma chine methods." The tyrauny of the northeast over the south and northwest has at last driven these sections into a union complete iu every detail and strong as bands of steel. Texas was loath to leave the Demo cratic ranks, they held back a long time, hoping and believing that the large Democratic majority in the lower house of the Fif ty-secoud congress would pass some substantial financial reform measures. The defeat of the silver coin age bill has destroyed the last hope in that direction, and at tho same time cut the last cord of fealjy to the old parties and compelled the oppressed people to look elsewhere for relief. Seeing-no relief, nor even hopo of re lief, outside of a political union with the great and growing northwest, Texas re formers, of every shade and type, have snatched the old party collar they have so long and so meekly worn front their necks and placed it under their heels. They have planted themselves upon the St. Louis and Dallas demands with both feet, declared for independent political action, and are filing into the great opening political battle with the same determination thee- did into the battles of Shiloh, Gettysburg and Malvern Hill. The great reform army now marshaling for the battle that is to decido which shall rule America, the "citizen or the "dollar," may rest assured that Texas "is in it," solid as adamant, as deter mined as fate, and will be heard from next November. Tillman's Talk. A Columbus (S. C.) correspondent in terviewed Governor" Tillman on his re turn from a visit to Washington. In speaking of the action of the Democratic congress he said: The Democrats are not doing them selves credit an economists. Their ex travagance will be apt to give the third party still another boom, because the people ere already disgusted by their behavior on the silver bill. Then what can yon expect bnt that the people in their desperation will seek some relief in another channel. Where an abuse in politics creeps in it takes forceps, aqua fortis and the surgeon's knife to cut it loose. The Republicans set an example of outrageous extravagance and the Democrats have not got the nerve or the patriotism, I don't know which, to root it cut. The presext condition of things in Washington demonstrates the fact that neither of the old parties will give the people relief. My opinion is that the extravagance of the present congress, added to its cowardice on the silver question, will give a good root to the third party. "Strictly Sot In It." Cleveland is as sure of the Chicago nomination as Harrison is of the Minne apolis nomination. Democrats and Re publicans will be permitted to wrangle at the primaries and conventions and all that sort of thing just for the amuse ment it affords them, but when it comes right down to the real work at the na tional conventions the poor deluded peo ple will simply be "Strictly not in it. The money power of Englaud and Wall street will name the candidates, and both wQ stand on platforms containing a "straddle" on tho silver question. Stick to your party and rote it straight. Yon are all right even if your intellect requires the aid of a microscope and cal cium light to find traces cf it. Denver Road. ' Beep Vour Eye an Michigan. We hardly think Jerry Simpson counted Michigan as among the possi ble states when be informed a Washing ton reporter that the People's party would carry eight states. We desire to carefully avoid inflated statements con cerning political possibilities, and-our fifteen years of reform work makes us rather conservative than otherwise; still we feel that we are again upon the eve of a political revolution in Michi gan. This time the so called common people are to nave their innings. The recent action of the Democratic party through their representatives in congress upon the silver question and the nnahiniity of sentiment as expressed by the capitalistic Democrat and Repub lican is already bearing fruit. Thinking men every where are openly denouncing the two old parties of frtud and corrup tion. The spring election developed a vote of 50.00Q, while thousands more, like the writer, declined to vote because no ticket was in the field in their local ity. Michigan Cor. Chicago Express. The Farmers' Power. All over the world the farmer Is slow ly learning that really all power lies in bis hands. He stands at the fountain and can work his will with .the stream that flows past bis feet and of which all the people of the earth must drink. Nothing serious would ' happen to the general run of folks if the. law courts were tq take a year's vacation, but the centers of commerce tremble when the farmers of Russia pave a poor crop. The gap is lilted by the farmers of Can ada, the United States and other wheat growing conn tries, bnt what would har- pen if the failure, of the crop in Russia were artificial like the closing of a cotton mill by a "combine" and all other ' farmers banded together to take advantage of the scarcity? A combine of farmers, were such a thing possible, would bold the world in its grip as the brazen palmed Moloch held his victims PRIZE ESSAY- Our Grade. J. C. FIELDER. At the beginning of the school year our class consisted of thirteen pupils and kept increasing until the class numbered twenty-four, averaging from fourteen to twenty years of age. As we will give a short sketch of each pupil, I will begin with Arthur Faris. Arthur is about tho youngest in the class, yet ha is one of the best in mathematics. Grace Elder is tho smallest in the class. She is very quiet and has a gentle disposition. May Earhart has rotten along quite nicely in her studies considering she was promoted during the first term of school and had to catch up with the class. On the death of her father she left school and did not return. Ira Ptirdin is getting along quite well with his studies. He was also promoted from a lower grade. Carl Narregan is tho son of our professor and consequently stands well with tho toucher as he does in his stud ios. John Harvey, one of the Central Point bovs, is a young man who tho.-outrblv eniovs school. Ha walked eight miles every day. "Put suit of knowledge under difficulties." John has plenty of ability if ho will only p jrsjvdro. Besides John thera were two t.tnor bovs who walked f i om Centrtl Poin Amos Fries and Percy Newton. Amis is a smart voung man. He litis taught sone, pus.--Mg both examinations wi!u an average high enough for a first srrade cortiucat,;. Ho was never so ve -y quick, but when ho demonstrated a fact it showed some dentn of mind and quite a good deal of thought. Percy Newton is one of tuo.e boys whose delight is in playing some joke on somebody. is tt fair scholar. He left school soon after the touchers' exaniinal ion. Julia sKodchcu is one of th-j girls who ioiued the class in tho winter. She is very quiet and modest appear ing. She is now icacning near ncr home. ' Zora Bliss was cno of tho oldest girls m me class ana siooa nign in neri studies. She is teaching near Eagle! Point. ' Zuc a Owens was iu the school such a short time that we did not have an opportunity of -becoming acquainted with her. V. tale in scliool snti very -eldom had anything to say. She left tbo school tarlv iu tne winter, only coming back to lake the examination. Mamie Isaacs was our organist all winter but about one month before chool clos.-d she stopped. She put along ia soma of her stuuies verv well. Her best study was history. Addio White is a Montana girl. Her parents moved to Medfurd lust summer. She commenced school soon iiftjr it bran and has not missed moru than one or two days during the term. Grace Foster was ono of the youug ist and best in the class. She was quite proficient in Algebra, but ia March she 1 -ft school as she had an opportunity to learn telegraphy. BoSsie Brous is one or tho most r.g :tlar girls iu attendance and has .J ways passed with a high average. M.D. Nieitelsoa is a merry laughing nrl with the M. D. on the wrong side of h? r name. She has beeniue of the class leaders a number of tini". Bertha Stewart is one of the girl who studied quito bard during th-3 winter and passed the teachers' ex amination. She has taught several terms of school. She is now teaching it Woodville. Myrtle Woodford is a pood natured ffirl. She passed tho examination to the delight of her friends. Emma Smith is a California girl. Sho is visiting at her uncles this win ter and Is attending school. She is soon to leave for California. Bessie Wait is a very good scholar having boen class leader a number of times. She is also a very gxd elocu tionist. Dora Buchanan did not join our class until lata in the fall, then left when she got her crtiScat., for her school in the mountains. Junte Stewaitis attending school, coming from home which is nearly three miles from town.. She is quite a favorite on accouut of her pleasant dis;osilion. rannia Haskins is quite a good pood progress in is studious nod scholar. - She made p.-nmansnip. ne anxious for the time to enter college. Julia Fielder, a Mieibgander, ajjed sixteen, is a girl of small stature, out gigantic intellect. She fs one of the suost mischievous girls in school and gives the teacher trouble by p.Tsisteut gum chewing. Ia November we moved Into the new school house and the building was Ji'dicated December 4, 1691. We have observed with tpprorriute exercises some of the principal days to is year, beginning with Inunksgiv ingand followed by Whlttier's birth day, Washington's birthdav, C'hrist m;us, New Years and Arbor lay. We also observed Decoration day bv going to Jacksonville t.nd helping decorate the sold ier's graves. On February 10, IW'J, tho high school took the teacher's examination, all passing well. Amos Fries, Uerthn Stewart, Zora Bliss and Dora Buchanan getting second grade certificates. All of the others received, or could have received third grade certificates if they had desired. There are eight of the class teaching at present. They all have pleasant schools.

One of the most enjoyable features of the evening was the fan-drill, while the trained . chorus of sixty voices was welcomed twica on the stage. A very amusing feature of the evening was the farce entitled "A Double Cure" in which Fannie and Bob distinguished themselves. Tho school has made good progress this year owing to tho kind etTorls of Prof. N. L. Narregan. Many who at tho first of tho school year could hardly read their own writ ing are now proud of havihg their work exhibited, showing there has been some hard work before the muscular movement could be con quered, but by the kind yet firm dir ection of our professor most of tho class have mastered it. Success to the high school of Med ford. The City Park. Kdltor Southern Oregon Mail: New that the election is over and the defeatod candidates have gone on their pilgrimage to the regions of "Salt river," and the elected 'ones have begun to realize the fact that they are "in it," let us quit the discussion of the vexed questions composing the science of politics iu id say something about the u flairs of our city. The city park is the subject that seems to be needing more attention than any other at this time. When this plot of hind was obtained by the city, steps were taken to plant trees and shrubbery and beautify the same, but the trees that were planted were not of a kind that will give much shade, and a good many of them have since died, so that we are not much nearer the end in view than when we lirst begun. Either the city counc'I or the citi zens should take the matter m hand and see that at once a sufii -f cient number ot maple trees are planted to thoroughly t-hade this piece of ground, so that for schoo! picnics and 4th of July celebrations we will not have to go away fiom irom Home to nnu Huuie. trees for this purpose can he hail chenpiv aiul should i;e oi a nmiorin Mze us near as possible, of from two to three inches in diameter, sawed off about eight feet front the ground. There Should be good preparations before planting, by digging holes deep mid large, and using plenty of sediment from the creek and plenty of rotten manure. Having the water at all tinits readv there will be no trouble iu making them grow. Let this utalter be looked after at once. lAXPAVKK. VICTORY FOU JOSEPHINE! the Peoples' Pat ty Win the Day in Josephine County. What the Grants Pass Observer Eays: . 'We have ra"t the enemy and we are theirs,' was tho exi-rosrion of sev eral dolesl.-d republicans this morning. It conveyed a paiuful t-ignificance; yet who will venture to predict that this temporary defeat will not revert to the iutorcsU cf the party at the next elec tion? "While it is against the rrincip'.esof republicans to elect men to office uihmi such platforms as adopted by the new party, and while such doctrine Is not at all in accord with republican ideas, it is a pleasure to note that a majority of the newly elected county officers are good citizens, men with whom the pub lic is not afraid to trust the administra tion oj the county's business. The re publicans are desirous of having men iu office who ill conduct public busi ness as the masses desire, and so long as the new officers fulfill their duties in a credi'.able manner they shall re ceive republican agprobation. The republicans were sanguine of electing their enlira ticket a fact thut is well known, and tho "Waterloo" of the people's partv was the greatest surprise ever encountered by the re publicans since their existence as a party. The cause we will not attempt to explain. But tho battle is o'er, and 'Us folly to refer to "whnt might havee been." Tho eop!o should unite now and lay aside all petty spites and grievances and labor one and all for the advance ment of our county with greater cu ergy than ever before. We shall have the experience of third party jiower, and U the people can not profit by ex perience they cannot profit in any otuer wav.
