ASHLAND HELD BKUMTION First Observance of Labor Day In Nearby City Is Success Elks' Band Heads Parade Through the City's Streets. ASHLAND, Or., Sept. C The first celebration of Labor day ever given in Ashland was very success ful.

AN index of the phenomenal growth of Medford is the report of the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company to the effect that it has connected over a thou sand telephones at the Medford exchange. It is hut a few years since one operator could hardly keep busy answering the calls of the few phones in Med ford. Today a score of girls are kept on the jump, and a new switchboard is necessitated for the near future. Mcdford's increase in phones exceeds that or. am other city in the country. No other town of the same population has as many phones and in none has the increase per capita oecn as rapid. Bjit phones are not the only thing that show a rapid increase and a phenomenal percentage per capita in Med ford. There arc automobiles, over 400 in use, or one for every 25 persons. Then there are more cash registers in use than in any other city of equal population, and there are also more typewriter machines than in any other city of similar size. In fact it is hard to name any modern improvement or convenience that the people of Medford do not take advantage of, showing not only the rapid growth, but the unusually high standard of intelligence among the inhabitants, proving that Medford is the most metropoli tan city of its size anywhere. PROOF OF GOOD CITIZENSHIP. LESS than a week remains in which to register in order to vote at the primaries to be held the latter part of this mouth. It is a vital part of good citizenship to vote intelli gently at all elections. Under the laws of Oregon the people have more to say regarding government than in any other state, and every citizen should take an active part, thus justifying the responsibilities placed upon his shoulders. In many of the states the people have nothing to say as to who shall be the candidates of their party. TJnder Oregon's direct primary law they have all the oot- T'lm o-nn1 nifivmi is flir mm wlin JlRSPrfs lllS riffllt in selecting candidates the omers to select inem ror mm.

MARTIAL LAW INJARLEIA Italian Soldiery and Starving Peas ants Clash and Harsh Measures Are Adopted in Consequence- Cholera Prevails. MILAN. Sept. C. Barleta, In the cholera district Is under martial law as the result ot yesterday's clash between the Italian soldiery and thousands of starving peasants. Traces of the rioting and disorder which prevailed throughout the day havo not yet been removed from the streets. This morning an ominous calm prevailed, but the rebellious outbreak against law and order Is believed by be only smoldering and serious trouble is momentarily ex pected. Goaded Into desperation by hunger and seeing their relatives and friends dying all around them by tho terrible disease, the masses are almost uncon trollable. Yesterday's disorders assumed the proportions of a pitched b:.ttle, In which women and children fought alongside tho men. The Ignorant peasants maddened by tho Inability of tho physicians and tho Red Cross to cope with tho cholera and their own helplessness, vented their rage by storming tho hospitals. Before assistance, in tho form of Infantry, arrived many of the sur geons wore roughly handled. Sever al mmnnnles of Infantry arrived at the scene of the worst disorder simul taneously and charged the mob wiui Hmwn bavonots. Men, women and children stood their ground, fighting back with clubs and stones nnd oven with knives. Thirty soldiers were wounded and a largo number of per sons In tho mob woro bayoneted. Many more were knocked down anu tmarpled on. Since tho cholera outbreak tho importation of vegetables and fresh foods have been prohibited, and wa ter hydrants havo beon shut off un less their supply are known to bo untainted. ' Hundreds of tho city's population have loft their homes and aro living pitlablyn In caves or wandering aim lessly about. 4, GLASSES BROKEN?

(Continued from Page 1.) this seemingly worthless desert soil, and the sheeu ranee known as the desert will without question be re claimed." Pleased With Progress. Mr. Noill expressed himself as he me creat v uleaseu wiiu me progress made by the company, nnd congrntu luted Medford on its rapid growth and its extensivo municipal improve ments, nnd the general buildiu'g ac tivity which was in evidence on ev ery hand. When Mr. Neill was asked what the policy of the Rogue River Valley Canal company would be, when the company would begin active con struction on the intermediate nnd hiuh line canals, and what the com pany would do regarding the devel opment of "the desert," Mr. Neill discussed the matter at length and left no doubt us to the intention of tho company. "The company owns CoOO acres of land, known locally as "the desert."' said Mr. Neill. "These lands will be immediately irrigated and developed, many acres will be planted to young orchards and all of the land will be leveled and irrigated. The plowing will begin within a very short period, for our plowing outfit is already on the ground, and with the exception of a few minor parts of the machin ery", we are now ready to begin the plowing and general development of this area. We havo taken up the reclamation o fthis desert land, and wo will continue our work until the whole tract is leveled, irrigated and planted to orchards. To Extend System. "In addition to tho development of tho desert, our company will bo pre pared to extend its system so as to include the entire valley, but wo must know nnd feel that tho people are with us before these extensions are undertaken. Wo regard this invest ment like any other, and wo natur ally look for tho returns, or tho pos sible returns, before wo undertake, it. We boliovo that the orchardists, gar deners and farmers of this district want irrigation, nnd we are ready to build the system, but wo mu.st know whether or not tho people are interested before we can make this oxtensive investment. Wo contem plate the investment of 2,000,000, which in itself is worth tho sorious consideration of every business man in Medford, for every man in busi ness will derive some benefit from the work going forward. Such .111 enterprise in this vnlley will bo of vast benefit to Medford, nnd the Medford orchard district, and while tho company will without question find it profitable itself, it is of mu tual benefit to both the company and the people, and wo feel that we aro entitled to tho support of every one in our enterprise.

CRVPPEN TRIAL IS UNDER WAY None But Lawyers and Accredited Newspaper Men Permitted In tho Room Case Marks Beginning of the End of Sensational Case. LONDON'. Sept. 0. -Dr. Hnwloy H.

Crippon's" stenographer, also ap peared before the bench, charged with being an accessory and with harboring a fugitive from justice. None but lawyers and accredited newspaper men were permitted in the room. The hearing of the couple today marks the beginning of the end of ouo of thoMnost sensational cases that has occupied the attention of Scotland Yard in recent years. Fol lowing the discovery last .Inly in the basement of Crippon's Loudon home of a body believed to be that of his wife, Scotland Yard occupied itself in a .search for Crippen and for Mile. Leneve, who was believed to be with him. Crippen and the girl were located through use of the wireless tele graph aboard the liner Moutnwc, bound for Father Point, Quebec. In spector Dew of Scotland Yard, crossing the Atlantic on a swifter vessel, was waiting for them with warrants for their arrest. During the hearing today hun dieds crowded about the doors of tho chamber seeking admittance. The guards, I however, refused to ad mit any one not bearing i-utiafuvtory credentials. HERE AFTER EXHIBIT FOR MINNEAPOLIS A. C. Ileffner, reprc-.entiug the firm of L. S. Donaldson of Minne apolis, was in Medford Monday so liciting r. fruit exhibit from the Med ford district for the exhibit that his company annually gives in their fa mous glass, house in Minneapolis, The store of L. S. Donaldson & Co. one of the "of the finest htore build ings in the west, having 11 .surround ing waif of glass. Last year tho fruit display in their immense win dows was said to be tho finest ever shown in the United States. The method which the company uses in getting exhibits is. to buy n carload at 11 figure lower than the market price from a district, allow ing the growers to send a numbor of smaller displays, which aro sold at fancy prices for tho owner. C. A. Malbocuf of the Commercial club says that Medford, through the co-operation of the Fruitgrowors' us.-.ociation and the Mcdtord Com mercial club, will undoubtedly send u display to the exhibit at Minneap olis this fall.
