"THE MIKADO" TO BE
tSHOWN HERE
Tho National-Pollard Opera com
pany comes to Medford for one per
formunce Saturday, September 10,
when they will present Gilbert & Sul
livan's famous comic opera, "Tho
Mikado," with a cast of principals
and a chorus thut would attract at
ten turn hi any city in tho world.
Those who Tcmcmbcr the Pollards in
years gone by, when as children they
delighted audiences with their clever
rendering of light opera, will find an
added pleasure in seeing some of the
adults the "growu-ups"--the for
saer stars of the big juvenile produc
tion, in the best of all comic operas,
which will be given a sumptuous re
vival at tho Medford theater, and al
ready scats are being called for.
"The Mikado" is now enjoying a
Now York run and its revival was
one of tho events of the season. It
is admitted bv the musical world to
e a pattern on which all comio op
era can bo modeled. Cortain it is,
"Tho Mikado" has nevor been ex
tolled in charm, for although 20
years hare gone by since its incep
tion, it is now attracting more at
tention than any other musical of
fering before the public, Tho reviv
al at tho New York Casino theater
k8 already had u run of several
Months.
'Tho conjunction of tho Nulional
Opera company with tho Pollard or
ganization makes this tho strongest
ambulation that has aver loured tho
euiitry. Tho salo of scats begins at
Buskins', Wednesday morning at 10
'clock!
LAFOLLETTE'S TRIUMPH IN WISCONSIN.
ay ITTLE BOB," as his enthusiastic constituents do-JL-
light in calling the diminutive yet dynamic sen
ator from Wisconsin, has just swept the primaries of
that state with an insurgent victory, winning his own rc
nomination to the United States senate and the nomina
tion of an insurgent candidate for governor.
La toilette's success at the primaries is most au
spicious for the reform or insurgent move within the re
publican party. La toilette is unquestionably the real
leader and father of the revolution. Ever since, his ad
vent into the politics of the state he has been insurgent
to the policies of his party.
The career of Senator La Follotte of fers a most splen
did object lesson to the rising generation. Upon his ad
vent into the political vortex of Wisconsin some twenty
odd years ago, he found his' party in the hands of tho
railroad and lumber interests, intrenched and organized
by the marvelous brains and wealth of such men as Saw
yer, Stevenson and Spooner. To overthrow these powers
of darkness and to return the government of his state
to the people was the gigantic task he set himself and
the intervening years of his life have been dedicated to
that aim. With the courage of a David, the perseverance
of a Calvin and the aggressiveness of an Alexander he
has battled on until he has syvept the last vestige of the
control of the special interests out of his state and his
splendid example and 'leadership have brought about a"
national revolution in his party, a widespread cleaning
of the Augean stables of the party that is bringing results
almost daily in the primary elections.
No other man in the national legislature in a genera
tion has introduced or become responsible for the enact
ment of so much beneficial legislations La Follcttc. To his
splendid constructive statesmanship the nation and the
people are lastingly obligated. His is a name to conjure
with and if the renovated, rejuvenated Republican party
suffers no relapse in their progressive movement he
should be their standard bearer in 1912.
THE DEMOCRATIC PAMPHLET.
ONE of the absurdities of the present political cam
paign in Oregon is the official pamphlet issued by
the state printer containing "cuts and statements" of
Democratic candidates, which is mailed to all registered
Democratic voters. The pamphlet contains a page write
up of Jefferson Myers and a cut of that illustrious guber
natorial candidate and that is all. No other candidates
have taken advantage of the gratuitous distribution of
campaign literature at the people's expense provided by
this unnecessary and- extravagant law, designed to benefit
office seekers and to promote the state printer's graft.
It cost the state approximately $1000 to print and
$400 to mail Mr. Myers' advocacy of his own candidacy,
and for the privilege, Mr. Myers paid $100. The net
loss to the people of Mr. Myers' ambitions, providing
they end, as they probably will,' at the primaries, is $1300.
In the printed argument of Mr. Myers as to why he
should become governor, occurs this statement:
"In 1903 he became president of the Lewis and Clarke
Exposition Commission and devoted over three veal's of
his time without pay or salary, in the work of upbuilding
Oregon and developing our state resources. No especial
credit can attach for the work of a public official for
which he has been well paid, but much credit should be
given a citizen for valuable and successful effort without
pay."
Page 430 of session laws of 1907 contains the following
appropriatien: "Fpr the paTnent of the claim of Jeffer
son Myers, president of the Oregon State Commission of
the Lewis and Clarke Centennial Exposition, for expenses
incurred while serving in said official capacity, $2500."
Such is Mr. Myers' "valuable and successful effort
without pay."

Nearly, or quite, 500,000 people pass through Mod

us soveral thousand dollars each year, but there aro many
little samples of extra fancy items that we never see or
even hear of, that ought to bo displayed.
Bring them in and we will attach a card giving full

Wo really think it your duty to do this small part in
trying to attract people to the valley. More pooplo moan
