TllM census Durcau litis

they are six in number, but Medford lends all in percent

Ten vears hns seen Salem increase from '1258 to 14,094,
.Astoria from 8381 to 9599, Eugene from I12.)6 to 9009,
linker City from GGG3 to 6742 and Medford from 1791 to
88'iO, Ashland from 2().34 to 5020.
' Medford 's percentage; of increase is, 1393.5 per cent,
Bug(,iKl,s is 178.4 per cent, Salem's is 230 per cent, Ash-
Innd's is 90.5 per cent. Medford lends all cities of America
in growth except Oklahoma City.

The Dalles and Oregon City are not yet in the 5000 class,
or if they should be, have not had the energy and patriot
ism to see that their enumeration was correct.
Medford ranks fifth among the cities of Oregon. She
is topped by a narrow margin of a few hundred by Eugene
and Astoria. She is growing faster and making grenter
progress than any of them, and another live years will sec
Medford the second city in the state.
Medford will rank second because her citizens have
willed that she should, because she has the enterprise and
energy and the geographical location and natural resources
to make her. Situated in the greatest I nut belt in the
world, surrounded by a territory rich in mineral -and tim
ber wealth, located' half way between Sacramento and
Portland, the western terminus of the Hill railroad sys
tem and the natural distributing center of an inland em
pire, the most metropolitan and cosmopolitan small city
in the world litis just entered a career oT growth that the
development of her tributary territory justifies in predict
ing for her a glorious future.
Nineteen hundred and fifteen will see Medford a city
of 25,000, and before another federal census is taken her
commercial and industrial supremacy will be recognized
throughout the west.

Earth's gayest city, draws large audiences, composed of
respectable people, in our uneventful, quiet towns, who go
in the hope ot having their tender susceptibilities shocked
nud of securing a thrill.
Most of those who attended the performance given at
the Medford theater were disappointed in not being
shocked. They saw a group of pretty girls, with strained
voices, gorgeously costumed, more or less, principally the
latter, in St. Vitus' dances. They witnessed a clever pnn
tominie illustrating the slums of Paris, by far the best
thing on the program. They heard a bunch of poor singers
warble mediocre melodies and second-class actors strut
or rather gallop through their. parts. Spontaneous humor
and even manufactured mirth were strangely lacking,
while gorgeous scenery, rapid action, and women clad in
almost the "altogether," struggled in suggestive scenes
to conceal the shortcomings of the creation.

and the scarcely concealed depravity of its frequenters, is
not ah exalted theme in America no matter how much it
may appeal to the Erench. The rough house comedy, de
void of wit and humor, the brazen etiquette of the dive, the
senseless prattle of the sensuous till these are pictured,
punctured with bare legs and crazy quickstep.
Neither in acting nor actors, in music nor melody, in
plot jior story, was the "Queen of the Moulin Rogue"
worth while. It did not even point a moral or adorn a tale,
and those who snw it were scarcely repaid by a hearty
laugh for their waste of time.
