CUy ttccoiilor and Mrs. Robert W.
Toller are receiving the coiiRratula
lioiis ol' their friends upoii the ar
river, Fridny afternoon, of. a tinv
addition to their family circle.
Upon his appearanco at ids office
in the city lmll yesterday morning
tho recorder admitted having spent
the entire night ministering to the
wnnts of the small visitor and; as
lie produced a quart bottle of milk
from his overcoat pocket and placed
it on the stove to remove tho chill,
he lifted the paper covering from a
basket he carried and proudly drew
Jorth a pedigreed English brindle
bull pup.
The dog, five weeks old, is built
alter the massive proportions if a
watch charm but he no. sooner
thnwed out at the stove than lie
emitted several laige sized growls
and then' seizing Mrs. V. A. Robins'
extended finger between his needlo
liku teeth bit it so that it bled.
Three others from tho snino litter
arrived in Mcdford Friday afternoon
from Weed, Cal., a present from I.
Pickering of that city to Mcssr?

and decisions in force at tho timo of
its nadoption, in order that no re
peals by implication may follow,' un
less tiic inconsistency and repug
nancy are plain and unavoidable.
The purpose of the law, is express
ed by its promoters, is: "It in no
wnny minimis the effect of tho pro
visions of the local option iaaw ,a.is
they are rctnained in ful force with
in the corporalo limits of every
city."
Tho reasonable construction
seems to lie that tho amendment
authorizes the cities not under the
locaal option to adopt such mea
sures as their charters warrant, and
cities under the operation of the lo
cal option law to proceed under their
terms nnd provisions, taking the city
as a unit,-to vote on the subject as
a unite, or by subdivision or pre
cincts of that uiiit, antl at the times,
places and in the manner provided
by the locnl option law.
In this view of tho, case tho de
murrers will be overruled.

tho local option law does not repeal

In construing the homo rule

Charging that her husband, W. E.
Page, deeded property to another wo
man' which ho had promised her as
a reward for nursing his mother in
her declining years, Mrs. Helen M.
Page has filed a petition in the cir
cuit court requesting an annulment
of her marriage.
According to the .complaint the
couple wore married in this city in
March, 11)09, and during tho follow
ing September Mrs. Page charges,
her spouso 'deserted her in favor ol
Miss Luella Adnms.
Tho property in question consists
of lots 1), 10 and n part bf lot 8 in
block 2G of tho city of Mt'dford and
j were promised to her by Page as a
reward both for becoming his wife
and for having taken euro of his
aged mother up until her deatli In

Eagle Point citizens will vote on
tho matter of incorporating their
town a week from next Tuesdny and
polities arc fairly sizzling in tho lit
tle town. It is firmly believed that
the progressives will win tho day-. It
y but another battle, they say, be
tween tho progressive and the moss
back and there can bo but one out
come. The matter of a bridge across Lit
tle Butte creek is worrying tho non
progressives who fenr they will have
to put up for it if the town incor

more modern structures and be
cause of that, he said, the newer J
and better buildings erected from'
time to time would bo locnted in (hot
newer portion of the business (lis-1
trier, namely, on the west side. Ten'
residences, ho added, aro now being
built on tho west side to every one
under construction on tho cast side.l
V. C. Green deplored tho action 6f
tho protestunts on tho grounds llint!
as the matter had been settled bv '
tho iederal authorities lit tlu hope
could bo had that a chaugo would
Jfo granted' and that because of this
ho could sec no advantage in stirring
up s.trifo that would causo friction
between tho two sides of town. II. A.
Thierolf nlso condemned the protest
becnuso tho government would prob
ably allow tho erection of any build
ing to await tho settemenl of a
factional fight if one was started
and in tho mean time ignore Medfoid
wldlo occupying its attention with
cities whero a disposition is shown
to wclcomo a federal building erect
ed wherever tho government's
agents see fit. Tho railroad station
location was also tabooed by those
'favoring tho present site on the
grounds that the new building will
oe located within SO rods of tho per
manent station recently erected by
the S. P., while the permanent loca
tion of tho depot for the P. & E. was
as yet a matter which no ono could
rightly guess.
Tho men appointed on the com
tnilteo to canvas the popular feeling
