Knvo tlio I'niled I'nws an out lino of
tlio policy ho e.vpei'tB to follow dur

(Hy Victor L. Horror.)
Of ooiiiso I realize that I am onlv
ono tionirrosbiiian anions nearly ,r)(M)
in tlio two hoiiHim mid I do not ex
pect to revolutionize the country sin
gle handed. Hut Iikchum' I represent
000,000 volcru I have u rilit to ex
pect to (jet n chance to explain our
point ot view on import an t measures
In common with socialist IcKis-latoo
tho world over, I shall supporl even
inmiKuie, no matter hy whom it may
ho introduced, Hint is intended to
yivo (,'ioater political freedom and
economic security to the working
chiasms, that i intended to safo
guard the toiler, lulniitr wonion am
iiliildrun from the factories, or to
losm tho hurdeiiH and misery of the
workers and add to their comfort.
Tho advent of a new pait. into
tlio amencHii conres im an event o,
h'mlorieiil iniHrtaneo. While Aiucii
m jt tho luU'st of the nations to win
HooiuliNtie repreenltioii, it is the
lUOHl promising for p'liewl socialis
tid (iiumpliH. Nowhere el so Ims enpi
tttlism had riicIi n free hand or i cach
ed so pivdoiiiinatiiiir control of h
cml and ivliticnl life. Perhaps no
other count rv can cslalilisli Mocialism
hy it("lf. I'uropnan count lies me
dopfiidoiit on other nation), for food
ilpplien and iimlerials of all kinds;
America (an product a surplus of
ovorylhinif ,e needs.
IN THID inovomeiit toward the "city beautiful," which is
now becoming general all over the United States, it
were- perhaps too much to ask that while so many matters
of grave moment, not only to beauty, but actually to health,
have to be remedied, such a comparatively small nuisance,
and a nuisance from the aesthetic point of view, as the ob
noxious billboard should be immediately taken care of.
There are many offending instances in this city, and once
or twice their intrusion on particularly beautiful spots
Jias evoked some transient ebullition ol sentiment. .It is
considered that if a man own a vacant lot he may not only
leave it in any such condition as he pleases as long as ho
does not break the sanitary regulations a dubious quan
tity but he may erect thereon a boarding on which may
be displayed any description of posters that he cares to
paste, just so long as somebody's Puritanical notions are
not offended. To the uhilosonher it is doubtful whether
offense against beauty is not equally grave with one
against Puritanism.
Coming down to its real laws, which are the basis of
all human society, a man's liberty only goes so far as it
does not infringe that of his neighbor, and if a man's do
ings in this respect offend his neighbors, they have every
whit as much right to object if he displays offensive posters
near a park as if he should operate a saloon in the middle
of a residential district. There is no doubt that if the city
councilmen ptiss a municipal regulation affecting these
posters it will be tested in the courts, but if carefully draft
ed there is equally no doubt but that it will be sustained
by the courts.
While French law is no precedent in this count rv, still
it at lords an example of what may be done. Mill posting
in i-ans is a mailer distinctly ol municipal regulatien:
posters may not be displayed anywhere except bv license
and whether such licenses be or be not granted is left
entirely in the hands of the municipal authorities; nor mav
posters be displayed except in particular spots. Further
more, such posters must conform to certain regulations as
to tlieirj'haracter and design.

To the citizens of Medford nnd
Jackson ceunty: Old It ever occur
to you? The vast Importance of n
tlnivliiK home city. A trading center,
where In ten of fifteen minutes to
three hours time you may he able
to visit and procure the necessaries
and comforts of life, that these home
merchunts nre the heaviest ot tax
payers and the main hub or support
of the city?
Please consider the above nnd com
pare, especially when a mall order
agent approaches you with his climax
on prices.
Hut, will the honorable, patriotic
and progressive element, the mer
chants, continue so stupid and neg
lectful? In offering a temporary pro
test against tho mall order houses
why not got your conscience togeth
er, provided you possess such, and
make a grand protest or assist those
who are ready, willing and able to
do so, those who are your greatest
support, the laboring element, the
producer Hut, did It ever occur to
you, especially, that the alien ele
ment now so numerously Invading
.Medford nnd vicinity, as at present.
are predominating in numiier over
our native people?
And did It ever occur to you, the
merchants and business men, that
these aliens, not only work for re
duced wages generally, but they live
accoidlngly? The most of their
spending money goes for tobneco and
booze. Very Utile, or comparatively
none, spent with the other various
business houses.
And last, but not least, did It ever
occur to you that this alien element
are in a way very wise to their own
good, or good of their own native
country, for tho reason that they
spend as little money ns Is possible
here, and send the bulk of their earn
ings back to Greece, the prove their
pntrlotlsm? Why, just apprehend the
postal department.
And now, friends, patriotic, pro
gressives, If you do have any con
science or conception of matters In
their true light, which no doubt some
of you have, by the aid of outstanding
bills, the debtor or customer being
unable to find employment sufficient
to meet expenses.
Hence will you please oxcrclso what
conscience and protesting power jou
may pos.ses in a manner that will toll.
Protest, not only the net or custom
of Bonding money out of Medford.
but more especially out of the United
States.
Yours sincerely,

VALLEY CROWS
Local Sportsmen Go After Aerial
Thieves Crows Get Wise and
Chanjie Rookeries Big Bag on
Sunday.
Medford sportsmen have declared
war on the crows and have determin
ed to exterminate these destroyers of
game birds as quickly as possible.
Since last January over 700 crows
have died and the war Is being wng
ed with skill on both sides.
The crows have changed their rook
eries and feeding grounds and now
all are congregating at or near the
(Sold Hay dam. For miles they come
each evening nnd hunters say that
the sky Is black with them at dusk.
In this natural rookery nature pro
tects the crows to a great extent, and
It takes all the skill possible to kill
them. They fly high to tho dam and
then drop quickly Into tho brush and
a gunsmnn needs to be quick of eye
and finger. Not only thnt, but the
crows are "wise" to crow decoys, and
"crow callers," and only live decoys
will attract them.
Sunday, Keyes, Seeley, Hmerlck
and Miles took a party of hunters
out to the dam in their autos at r
o'clock. In the party were C. Miles,
W. W. Humphrey. Hill Keycs. 13. It.
Seely, . Coruin, V. J. Kmerlek. M.
J. l3iiiorick. Frank limerick and 11. 13.
Hoyden. The party killed 70 crows.
In the morning Humphrey, V. J.
Prank and M. J. I3meiick went out to
an old rookery and killed 115 crows.
