FOR A CITY BEAUTIFUL.
TIB first definate step for a city beautiful was made V
tlio council Tuesday evening when a contract lor clus

gallant struggle for shaded avenues and for parked rail

citv or the citizens of Medford. Their efforts have been
most commendable and cvovy assistance possible should
bo rendered them.
Tho railroad right-of-way is a disgrace, lumber piles,
refuse, debris, litter it. Old shacks, adorn it, that the first
breeze may collapse. Part of it is utilized as a loafing
ground for express wagons. The railroad is willing to
clear the grounds up, provided the city orders it, but the
council has done nothing as yet.

were granted leases subject to cancellation on thirty days
notice. Owners pay no rent, hence no injustice would be
caused by their removal. There is no reason why part of
the business community should be forced to improve prop
erty or rent quarters, competing with another portion
that enjoys free rent, without any appreciable, investment.
But if injury to shippers is likely to follow removal, the
date could be set months enough in advance to afford am
ple time for other arrangements. At least the space not
occupied by shippers could be parked and beautified.
It is to'be hoped that some action will be taken by the
council looking to the bettering of conditions on the rail
road right-of-way.
THE CHANGE AND ITS SPONSER.
SI NTH people began asking the questions, "whore did
you got it," "how did you got it," rather than bowing
in reverence before you because you have it, there has
come a wonderful change n the attitude of the people to
ward the xvvy rich.
!No longer is wealth blindly worshipped. A commercial
ly mad nation, wo are deserting the shrine of the golden
calf. Tho so-called "Captain of industry" whoso industry
consists in exploiting the money for the benefit of the few,
who by hooks and turns along devious and crooked paths,
lands in tlio seal of the mighty, no longer wears his halo.
Tlio niuekraker lias done his disillusion woric won m
