TO DEDICATE
DEPOT Oil 10TH
All Permanent Officials of South
ern Pacific Will Be in Medford
Prorjram for Dedication 'is to Be
Arranged.
PARTIES IN THE DECADENT AGE.
On the tenth or this month Med
' ford's new 350.000 depot will he ded
icated. All the principal Southern
Pacific officials will he in iredford
on that date to extend hearty felici
tations to the people of Hertford. The
municipal officials and citizens of
Medford will reciprocate. Other
features of the program have not
been arranged, hut it is certain that
an elaborate otic will be rendered.
Q. L. Loriug. superintendent of
'construction, who was in Medford on
Saturday, expressed disappointment
that the construction of the Sixth
street storm sewer prevented the
early completion of the depot plat
form that he had planned. He in
tends to build a platform 1000 feet
long and 25 feet wide. The material
to bo used is decomposed granite.
NOVEL PLAN TO
ADVERTISE CITY
Manager Malboeuf of Medford
Commercial Club Hits Upon New
Scheme Will Attract Attention
to Article Upon Medford.
Two thousand postal cards, fur
nished by the .Sunset magazine,
are to be hurled broadcast over the
country by the iTedford Commercial
club calling attention to an article
in the November number of the
Sunset regarding Medford. The ar
ticle will do much good in an adver
tising waq.
The credit for (he advertising U
due Charles A. Malboeuf, manager
qf the club. For the November is
sue of the magazine he contributed
an article covering four pages un
der tho caption "Oregon's Wonder
City." He then informed the man
agement of the publication that the
local club would advertise it if they
would furnish the cards. This they
agreed to du.
The postal cards which are to be
sent out read as follews:
"Tho Sunset magazine for No-
vpmlinr will nnntnin n npnnfiAnl An
scriDtion of Medford and tlin Tlomm
River valley. It tells of America's
foremost orchard district and her
most progressive citj Be usre and
read it."
"DOTH tho republican and democratic parties seem to
- have outlived their usefulness, to be breaking up and
passing away. They seem to have reached the decadent
age "in whieli no ideal either grows or blossoms, when
belief nnd loyalty have passed away and only the cant and
false echo of them remains; and all solemnity has become
pageantry; and tho creed of persons in authority has be
come one of two thing's: an imbecility or a Mae.chiavolism."
The great issues that called forth both great parties
into being long since passed away their puzzling prob
lems long ago solved. The vital sparks that jjnvo them
life and power years ago have flickered out. Names and
organizations, created around one-time ideals alone ro-
1,111am empty husks, utilized by greed for graft.
Those empty shells, traditions of party name and myth
of party principle and jaundiced prejudice, engendered
when parties meant something besides tom-toms and pie-
counters, have long been utilized to spell spoils, to play)
a shell game on the public. Beneath the cloak of partisan
ship continues the rape of the people, "while the Liliputians
quarrel over high and low heels, or concern themselves
over the label, unmindful of the package within. i
Parties create tariffs, tariffs create trusts, trusts
finance parties and the endless chain, distribution of the
earnings of the many into the pockets of tho few, rolls I
on, creating at once the billionaire and the pauper. And
the least effort to disturb tho plunder of plutocracy con
jures up threat of fiuaiicial panic and its black shadow
of despair. And the full belly becomes the slogan of a
party created for the rights of man and pork barrel bribery .
justification for. betrayal of the people to organized greed
so have the mighty fallen.
The two great parties arc similarly composed of acci
dental and unnatural coalitions of opposite factious.
Neither can accomplish rjernianent good until the similar
factions in each unite. The efforts of one faction are neu
tralized br the endeavors of the Other, and a meaningless
compromise results. But the people are slowly awaken
ing. Progressive republicans cannot accomplish serious
legislation so long as they must work with stand-patters J
and keep up party warfare witli progressive democrats.
And the same is true of progressive democrats. And par-,
ty name and party organization become shackles to bind
the feet of progress.
Party confusion is becoming worse confounded. No ;
one can longer define a democrat or a republican. Repub
lican platforms in half the states point with pride and,
in the other half hold up to shame. The difference 'be-,
tween a progressive democrat and a progressive republic-;
an or a conservative democrat and a conservative Repub
lican, is the difference twixt tweedledum and tweedledee
a difference only in name. Democrats are deserting
their ticket for progressive republicans, and republicans
are deserting theirs or progressive democrats.
Both old parties are going to smash, and they ought to.
People, tired of buncombe, are voting for men and princi
ples instead of for party and. they ought to. Out of the
chaos, let us hope, will come a new system more plastic
political combinations than the rigid two-party system
so that the people can secure reform without a twenty
year struggle so that the long reign of the "system"
may end so that the people may rule.

IJttorious conditions in children oil en follow falls or
wrenches which' produce displacements of' tho osse
ous strife tu re of the body, especially of tho spine.
They may complain but little at the time, possibly
of nothing more than a sore spot or a catch in the
back. Tho displacements, however slight, without
correction, become chronic. A school toacht'r often
says: "Johnny, sit up straight or yu will become
round-shouldered.' ' Until his mind wanders to some
thing else he keeps erect, but as his body relaxes he
involuntarily assumes the old position. In time ho
becomes more or less depressed mentally and physi
cally and a spinal curvature is quite no'ticoable.
JWith bricks two inches wide at one end and tin
iiM'h and throe-quarters at the other you cannot pile
them one on fop of the other, the narrow ends point
ing in the same direction without their forming a
curve. Through a wrench, fall, or accident, Johnny
displaces one of the 1M movable vertebrae of his spine
causing pressure on nerves emnianating between tho
bono above and below. This pressure partially shuts
off the nerve supply to the muscles and ligaments
holding the' bones in situ and the weaker side
necessarily gives way. The spine is Irawn out of
alignment and gradually gets worse until a well de
fined curvature is the result. Instructions to keep
erect have been given with the best intentions, but
with the bones of the spine wedged-shaped how can
you expect tho child to sit erect, when in so doing
he does tho opposite to which nature gets the most
relief from? A man said to mo the other day: "I
don't know what to do with my bey: he wen't: sit up
straight and is getting round-shouldOred'. T scold
him, but it doesn't do any good." Parents, don't
scold the child. Tt is an abnormal condition of the
spine over which he has no control which causes him
to stoop over. The thing for you to do is to have this
corrected, then he will have' no inclination to bend
over.
fiJOurvalurcs are by no means tho only conditions re
sulting from displaced vertebrae'. Chiropractic
pre ves that 95 per cent of diseases tire caused by os
seous displacements, pressing on tho nerves. Heavy
pressure causes paralysis. Not long" ago a little tot
of 2U years old was brought to Dr. Gordon after a
fell from a window of lour foot. Aii examination
showed a displacement in tho small of the battle pro
ducing pressure on the motar nerves of one leg, par
alyzing it. After one adjustment tho child received
instant relief, and two more made a complete cure.
The mother know tho results obtained by chiroprac
tic adjustment and didn't allow tho child to continue
in the belief that it would "outgrow it." This case
verifies the fact that "there is no time like tho pres
ent to do things."
jfi)r. Gordon makes a specialty of chronic, spinal
and nervous diseases.
