V sail in politics. Wherever possible, they control
both parlies. They seek to dominate legislation for their
own benefit; and switch support from one party to the
other as occasion demands.
The party organization is a cloak whereby the system
is enabled to elect whom it pleases. Regardless of party
platforms, it is the candidate himself that the corpora
tions relv upon, l'u republican states, they are republic
ans, in democratic states, democrats. One year they sup
port the republican and the next year the democrat.
"Whichever candidate will serve the system's selfish in
terests thev rely upon.
Whw then, should not the people be equally discrim
inating'? AVhv should not the people support whichever :: ,
party or candidate they can rely upon1? If it has proved ;; OVeFdllS
such good policy-tor tne corporations 10 ue ui-parusuu, i
it not equallv good for the people?
Two of the svstem's candidates come before the voters
of this county-ATay IBowerman, the Southern Pacific at
torney, assembly candidate for governor, aud Willis C.
Hawley. also assembly nominee, who, as congressman,
voted for everv measure wanted by the system.
Ts it not good policy on the part of the people to sup
port their opponents, as against these men who are re
ceiving the active support of every corporate interest in
the stiite and nation?

ANOTHER STORE
OPENS SATURDAY
"Golden Rule," on West Side, Ready
for Business After Delay in Com
pletion of Building Great Stock
of Merchandise Carried.
Another new store on the West
Side to open Its doors to the public
tomorrow (Saturday) morning. At
9 o'clock tomorrow morning the
"Golden Rulo" will open for business
with a big Introductory sale.
Messrs. Akins and Benton have had
a serious time getting opened on ac
count of the delay In the building, all
of which was unavoidable, but a hin
drance just the same.
The new store will fill a want In
this community and add to the as
sortments of Uses' already hero for
which there Is more demand than
can be supplied.
The new store will occupy the two
rooms at the Tiorth end of the St.
Mark's building, with show windows
on two sides. This will make one of
the prettiest fronts In all southern
Oregon, and the interior will be the
lightest In this city. There Is not a
dark corner In the entire store.
Tho large etock of general mer
chandise carried by this store, In
cluding almost everything worn by
man, woman or child, should gain for
them a strong hold on the trade of
this section right from the start. Not
a person living within a radius of 20
miles but what will find many things
that they could use at this store.
It will be up to tho people of Med
ford to call on this new store Satur
day and learn about the wonderful
values they are offering. There Is no
doubt but what you will receive a
hearty welcomo, even though you
may not find anything that you care
to buy.
Messrs. Akins and Benton are
pleasant men to meet and will be very
pjlensed to have you call whenever
you are down town. 4

The saloon is an ubsolute fuilure
as a help to tho individual or to the
cfnt,.. Tim 8th of November will
again reveal the fuct that the sa
loon stands condemned by the popu
lur vote of tho citiuub of Juckson
county. Tho buloon hub hud u long
time to prove ito worth. Let us have
an equully fair chance to prove the
worth of prohibition, 'lue baioou
by its friends is said to be indefens
ible. Alcohol is suid by its friends
to bo usele&s and unnecessary to tho
huinuii system. The text books In
our public bchoolb, buiictioned by tho
highest authority and approved by
tho people, teach to our children tho
evil effects of alcohol on the life of
umii. To practice what every one
preaches therefore the suloon should
be voted out.
Why build hospitals to care for
broken-down health und ut the same
time allow institutions to exist to sell
thut which destroys health and
breeds dibeuso? Remove the cause
und the hospital will not be needed.
Remove tho cause und poverty will
bo diminished. In no other form of
life is it considered wise to cultivate
a pest. It js not wise in human so
ciety. Low must be the mark of u
man whon tho saloon must exist to
test his manhood. England then
should continue to force upon Cljinu
tho opium trndo to properly test tho
manhood of Chhiumeu. How absurd!
Vote 329 X No, 342 X Yes, and
344 XYes. Vote early and vote un
til every anti-saloon vote is cast.
The brewors and distillers und tho
whole whisky bunch sent all the way

Rev. Win. A. Wasson.
The State.
The state has an individuality and
its individuality and honor is exalted
by deciding against the saloon. If
Wo vote ngainst the saloon we vote
for a more prosperous city, for a
more prosuerous and glorious state
und for a more joyous and happy
people. If wo vote for the snloon we
vote for fighting, blasphemy, obscen
ity, prostitution, robbery, murder,
heartache and crime, crime, crime.
Prohibition means freedom for the
individual, for the community and
for the state. Prohibition does and
will prohibit.
Alabama.
Hear what, the governor of Ala
bama says:
"Montgomery, Ala., May 0, 1903.
Before I entered upon my official
duties .as governor, while a strong
temperance man, I was in no sense
of the word a prohibitionist, believing
that a state prohibition law was of
doubtful utility. But after a year as
chief executive, I am an intense pro
hibitionist, having been made so bv
the mothers, wives and children who
have come to- my office for the pur
pose of securing paraon or stay of
execution for their sons, husband- or
fathers. Many times have women
come to my office with babes in their
nrms and young children by their
side, to beg that I give them back
their husbands, give them back from
the penitentiary where they have
been sent in many enses for murder
committed in nearly all cases while
they were under the influence, of
whisky. It is not the man who does
the drinking aud commits' the deed
who suffers, most. The man in prison
is cared for his victim God knows
where. It is the mothers, wives and
orphans of these men' who do the
suffering."
President Eliot's Testimony.
On November 11, 1908, President
Eliot publicly made the following
statement at the meeting of the Mas
sachusetts No License league:
"So I say that the recent progress
of medical science bus satisfied me
that even the moderate use of alco
hol is objectionable; thnt tho-habitu.il
use of alcohol in any form is low
ering to the intellectual and, nerv
ous power.
"As I have grown older and seen
more, I have changed my view ubbut
license and no license. I feel as if
it had been proved that it is physic
ally, mentally and morally for the
advantage of j population iis a whole
to ko without nlconolic drinks as n
rule."

bad as under hiiv system or as bad

cause; and in 'every enso, so fnr ns
my own observation goes, driiiiken

Decide this question right by vot
ing us follews: 329 X No. 342 X Yes
ami 3 14 X YeS. Vote early and keep
voting until every anti-saloon vote
is in the ballot box.
