Water Commission Proposed
Mayor Canon
"To the City Council of the City of Medferd:
"Gentlemen After giving the matter considerable thought nnd nftor
consultation with some of tho prominent business men of the city, t have
decided to recommend to the council that the management of the water
system of the city be pluced iu churgo of a commission of business men.
"When the contractor has finished his present contract for laying
distributing mains, it may fairly be said that Medford has a completed
water works system. Further extensions in the distributing system will
be constantly required, but this is always true in every growing city. This
plant has cost the city more than half n million dollars, and it is abso
lutely essential to tho prosperity nnd well being, of the city that it bo
managed i nn careful, yet progressive manner, mid with business judge
ment nnd insight. Above all, politics should be kept out. No employe of
this department should ever be under nny obligation to any party or
clique, or have cause to fear that his position or promotion depends upon
its success or defeat.
"It seems to be that there urc three principal objections to contin
uing the management of the water works system with tho ceuncil: '
"J. The large amount of other public business that members of tho
council nrc called upon to look after makes it impossible for them to
(Ave to the management of the water works system as much time and at
tention ns is required.
"2. There is always danger where the management is retained m
the hands of the council thnt the department will be dragged into party
politics, p to this time party politics lias played no part in the govern
ment of Medford, but there are always those in every community who
seek to advance their pcrsonnl interests by injecting partisanship into
tho local affairs. Tho record nnd history of American cities demonstrates
conclusively that .thiss. destructivc-of-good.govcniment,.but.thorais al
woys nn element thnt thinks more of party nnd personal welfare than of
the welfare of the community.
"3. In tho management of tho water system it will sometimes oc
cur that business requirements will render necessary rules, regulations
and courses of notion which mny not meet with popular approval for the
time being. Experience has demonstrated that n commission of busipss
men are more likely to meet such situations fearlessly thnn a body of
elected officials.
"In my judgment the council, as the administrative body of the city,
should retain a supervisory power over the general administration of
th ewntcr system, but the conduct of the business should bo placed abso
lutely in tho hnnds of the commission.
"To b.ring nbont this change will probably require nn nmondment of
tho charter of the city.
"If my suggestions meet your npprovnl, you should direct tho nec
ossary amendments to bo prepared.
"I would suggest thnt this matter be placed in the hnnds of n com
mittee of nttornovs nnd business men, nud thnt thej' be also authorized
to go over the chnrtcr and the amendments thnt have been pnsstu during
the last four years, suggesting any minor changes which mnv be neces
sary, nnd eliminating nnv conflicting provisions that may have crept iu,
and perhaps simplifying somo of the mnehiner' for mnking improve
ments, assessments nnd other mnttors of detail; and when this has been
npproved bv the people that on edition of tho ehnrter bo printed. At tho
present time thcro nro no copies of the charter to bo had and the
amendments are scattered through the records of tho last four years.

146,394,000 Feet of Timber Offerei
and Bids Received Timber
Stands in Pelican Bay Region on
Watershed of Four Mile Creek.
In compliance with a request from
California lumber men, the forest
service has offered tor sale 146,394,
000 feet of timber in tho Crater na
tional forest, nnd bids have beea
received on tho same. Tho timber to

for fir. Bids will be opened In about
30 days. .
The sale will amount to $365,316,
as 90,000,000 feet of the timber la
pine. Jackson county's share of ths .
receipts will be $73,000. As tho tim
ber must be cut In five years, the an
nual recelypta of tho county will be
approximately $14,600.
The timber stands on tho water
shed of Four-Mile creek In tho -Pell- -can
Bay region. All trees under 20
Inches In diameter will bo loft stand
ing and all brush must bo piled and4
burned.
Jackson county derives its share
from the provision by the federal
government that tho counties receive .
25 per cent of all timber sales in
their boundaries. As 80 per cent of
the Crr.ter national forest -is in Jack- ',
son county, this county receives 80 j
per cent of the 25 per cent of the
sales. Klamath county will receive '.
tho other 20 per cent or about $18,- t

tho forestry officials for tho timber, -a
