Our Daily Disconnected Story.
In order to secure more concerted
rictlnn, tlio Society for tho Abate
ment of Public NuIhiuicoh, tho An
vil Chorus and the Society for the
Suppression of Uncalled-for-Mirth de
cided last night to combine and will
hereafter he known as tho Southern
Oregon Association for tho Poultic
ing of Civic Cancers. The Hiiffragotto
auxiliary rendered a beautiful bal
lad entitled "Wc Want What Thoy'vo
Got, nnd Wo'll Get It" In dedica
tion of tho new society.
Tho Joint meeting was called to or
tlor by WIlllo Monday, tho groat suc
cessor to Carrie Nation, nnd Leklek,
tho eminent French detective, was
unanimously untied on tho advisory
board.
Tho first business tnken up wns a
communication from a prominent cit
izen rclntlvo to tho usago being made
of tho Southorn Pacific right of way
by express wagons nnd automobiles.
"Following tho example sot a few
days ago by a pair of runaway buzzard-heads
hitched to an express wag
on," It road, "fashionable Medford
now motors right up to tho stops of
tho Pullman cars when desirous of
taking a llttlo Journey. Yesterday
afternoon, when tho evening train
for the north pulled In, a number of
podcstrlans and others of tho com
mon honl endeavored to place a few
farewell smacks upon tho cheeks of
departing loved ones, but wore rude
ly prevented by tho nerve-racking
honk of n chug wngon, which at the
moment was preparing to heave to
alongsldo of the chocolate soldier In
chnrgo of tho slcopor "Miserere."
Then followed a clipping from the
minutes of tho last session of tho
American ltallroad's association for
Keeping In Check of Paid Passongors,
which read:
"Don't No. 3rI Never allow any
wheeled vohlclo larger than a dollar
watch to bu brought onto tho depot
platforms."
After a lengthy discussion, it was
decided to undone tho communication
In a pigskin and to forward It to the
local agent of tho railroad for his
edification.
Five-cent beer was laid on the tn-
ble until the next meeting.

STNCTC tho earliest dawn of civilization the world has
watched tho struggle between two great classes of
minds conservative and progressive.
The first of those, the conservative, is content to dntt
along, clinging to old institutions, dead laws, obsolete cus
toms, hiding from the light, anxious to be let alone, content
to remain hidden unless someone disturbs the refuse to
which they cling. Then they rush forth shrieking against
the disturbers, the dissatisfied, hurling fierce maledictions
at these restless spirits, who no sooner got a roadway into
the wilderness than they must clear up lands for homes;
who no sooner find their Jittle cosmos crowded than they
begin the search for other worlds to conquer.
The conservatives are ever in slavery, ever in bondage,
over the barnacles clinging to the vessel, retarding its
nrnirress. drairirinir it down to destruction. They are typi-

all forms of filth find lodgment, whore all disease sately .stluldinK of the bills is obtained in the
breeds and emerges to scourge humanity. They are, as 10Uh0 a,i jn u10 nm,i districts. '
they ever have been lovers of darkness, fit companions Jinny of the house members pre

stand, yet warring upon all promptings for better, until
the morass spewed them forth, until the tree fell and the
caves closed.
No conservative over blazed a trail, built a road, cleared
or plowed a field, crossed a stream, fashioned a loom, carv
ed a work of art, crossed the ocean or performed one use
ful stroke to uplift humanity, until the progressive ones
made plain the way repeatedly or the crossing became
easy.
The conservatives would yet be using rocks and clubs
hammering frogs, snakes and lizards to death for food
along the Nile if some restless progressive had not fash
ioned a hoe or sickle. They even crucified the Savior of
mankind. They have sought ever to crush those who cry
"forward." The lives they have taken if gathered
would bo is the sands of the sea. The agony they have
caused in tho upward climb is beyond the realm of thought
to over touch the borderland of. We gather an atom of it
only from the days since written history began just a
breath of all the torture, just a feeble cry here and there
from the multitude, of the awful tide of woe that swept the
earth, drenching it in blood again and again. We learn
but little, though even that is too frightful to dwell upon.
With all the enlightenment of the present age, these
monsters of darkness yet drive the thorns into the brow of
truth.
From Japan has just come word of the death of a little
band of progressives. In the Congo thousands of arm
loss natives salute the memory of a cruel European ruler.
Not long ago Forrar's body dangled in full view of the
multitude. Thousands foster today, in foul prisons in
Mexico. -"Whole villages men, -women and children
volleyed to death by Diaz's lurid assassins. Tho dead lay
in heaps in Itussia and Turkey, those later years, whilst
thousands moan in chains.
In America we have recentlv had our Idaho bullpous,
our Colorado horrors, our shambles in Pennsylvania. Wo
had a president calling seekers of light ''undesirables."
Ono hundred thousand Americans are annually mangled
and killed upon the mils, as many more in mines and mills,
thrice that number of mothers and fathers are gaunt and
haggard, slowly dying in the sweat hells. Hundreds of
thousands of earth's brightest blossoms tins driven upon
the streets, bruised and mangled beyond almost all sem
blance of Clod's imago. Millions of babes, stunted, distort
ed, twisted, destroyed yearly. Ton irtillions of our men,
women and children underfed, existing in routed pons they
call homo, unable to escape the death about them.
No wonder the bands of tramps sway with the sun in
its oscillations north and south. No wonder divorces are
so common and marriage almost impossible among the
toilers. No wonder millions seek to drown all care, to for
got their troubles, in intoxicants.
When men seek to find a way to escape, then uplifts
tho serpent's head upon the very waters tho pioneers must
cross to roach tho flowers and tho healing springs, hissing
them back, shaking its rattles and exposing its poisoned
fangs.
Vet the onward march is begun. Those upon the sum
mit behold the fertile valleys of peace and plenty and shout
the gladness to the swaying millions. And they believe
and press forward as they pressed forward over the bar
riers of feudalism and slavery. Triumphant, over victo
rious, the seekers for truth will pass beyond unto bettor
things, where they will gather from the infinite a clearer
vision of truth and refining power, and walk on broader
highwavs into ever and ever more perfect knowledge, and
ever and ever more perfect blossoms, fragrant with love
and goodness.

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb. 9. Voting is
in progress today throughout Arizona
on the new state constitution. There
is hardly a doubt, that the people will
approve the document and its friends
say it will have at least l0 per cent
of (ho vote.
Those opH)sed to tho constitution,
while admitting that it will be adopted,
predict that President Tuft will veto
it on account of ts socnlled radical
provisions, particularly that providing
for the "recall" against which the
president has expressed hinihelf.
