are" two sides to this naiuc question.

Would cnl! n mnrble dome.
Ho has the foolish notion that
He will not buy at home.
Now wo .read that Congressman
Riikcr is uncovering n lot of thing
in Washington-
IT is good news to the people- of Medford that the fumn
cinl difficulties that threatened the completion of the
new hotel Medford have been adjusted and its speedy
opening assured.
It is no small thing for the eity to have sueh an inst i
tution as this will he the only "first elass hostelry in
Southern Oregon. It means a great; deal to the Rogue
River Valley, for it insures suitable and even luxurious
accommodations for the inonied tourist and investors, who,
usually place there own personal comfort above other
consideration.
It has been a great effort for si city the size of Med
ford, to find the cash necessary, with all the other-enterprises
underway, to finance the structure. Portland was
many times the age and size of Medford before that metro
polis boasted of such a hostelry, and then it was only
tlirough the efforts of her many millionaires, a class un
known as yet here.
Nothing worth while is secured without a struggle.
Having successfully solved the hotel question, the next
problem that confronts Medford is a. first, class play house.
This will be tackled the coming week by business men of
the city.
Every metropolitan feature secured, such as first class
hotels, fine theaters, etc. add to the attractiveness of Med
ford and the desirability of life here and so helps material
ly in the building up of city and country.

Postofficc Inspector S. If. Morse 1m
expected to arrive in Medford with
in a couple of weeks for the purpose
of inspecting proposed rural mail
route No. 2, running out of Medford.
Mr. Morse was due to be here on
July 1 but the two recent train rob
beries on the Southern Pacific, to
which matters his attention has been
given, has deferred his visit here,
For more thau two years this pro
posed route has been held up without
cause other than want of time by
the postpffice department for in
spection and recommendation.
This proposed routo leaves Med
ford by either Oakdale avenue south
or Peach street south to an intersec
tion with tho Orchnrd Home road;
from there it runs west to the Mc
Mitchell plnce; thence to Jacksonville
and from there north toward Cen
tral Point over tho "Lill road" to
within about one and a, half miles,
of Central point, then baek to the
Stewart or Daggett place where it
intersects with the lower Jnckson-ville-Centrnl
Point rod, From
here it will run south to the Mcd-ford-Jacksonville
road and from
there east to .Medford. The two
crossroads between Medford and
Jacksonville on the south will also be
served by carrier on this route. It
is not altogether improbable that a
portion or all of the new Boss road
will bo served by this route.
The distance to be traversed on
this route is 24 miles and over 1000
families will be served. Tho roads
are in fairly good shnc during the
entire year, thus it can ba easily seen
that nothing save an inspection and
a favorable recommendation is need
ful to the establishment of the
route.
Assistant Postmaster J I?. Wood
ford states that at least uo other
rural routes out of Medford could
easily be established if the roads
were- in condition for travel during
tjio cntiro year. One of these would
leave Medford north on Roosevelt!
aveuuc aud from there take in the
farm homes along the cast side of
Bear creek, then cast to the vicinity
of Coker Butte, the Vilas and 4ll
orchnids, along (ho foothills past thu
Merrick and Bates Bros', orchards,
and then into Medford over a route
to bo determined us the most densely
populated. Another route would bo
east from Medford by way of .Main
street, through Siskiyou Heights to
the Hillcrest orchards and from
there to Phoenix and return to Med
ford. The requirements of the govern
ment ,aro that the routes shall he 21
miles in length aud that 100 fami
lies shall bo served. These require
ments aro not so difficult to meet be
causo that the departments will
serve families Jiving one-half mile
either side of the main route, and
'que families to the mile are not
hard to find in the territory over
which these routes are proposed to
bo laid out. But the difficulty is
the roads and it must bo shown be
yond the question of a doubt that
thoy are in good shape for winter
travel.
MAY ORGANIZE
MILITIA HERE
George 0. Yoran, Colonel of Fourth
Infantry, Writes Regarding the
Organizing of a Company of the
National Guard In Medford.
A couple of years ap a bunch of
young follows in Medford, of whom
K. C Guddis was the leader, were
falling all over themselves, n it
were, in their efforts to organize
a national guard company. For
some reason the organization wo-
not perfected at that time. Perhaps
there was not an opening for such
a company, but more probable was.
it that there were not enough young
men of the standard required. He
this as it may,, it matters little, but
tme it was no organization was ef-
Times have changed now since
Medford has "grown," and thoro is
no doubt hut that good sound, will
ing timber for n millitary organiza
tion could easily be gotten together.
That there is now n opening for
such mi organization' is evidenced
from the reading of tho following
letter:
Eugene, June 27, 1911. '
Mr. E. C. Gaddis, Medford. Oregon.
Sir: I uuderstniid there is nde
sirc to organize a national guard
company at Medford and that you
take an interest in it. I would he
pleased to get a good company there
now, -anti if you have anything on
the string would bo glad to hear
from you. Respectfully,
GEO. 6. YORAN.
Colonel Fourth Infantry, O. N. G.
Mr. Gaddis is jut as keen now to
perfect a. military organization in
Medford as ho was in years agone,
but extensive business mutters have
so crippled his soldier enthusiasm
as to make it not possible for him
to give tho details of the organiza
tion tho required ill I cut ion and he
is compelled to decline Colonel Yo-
ran's proffered assurance that kiicIi
a company could be in Medford if
it would be. However, Mr. Gaddis j
has asked the Mail Tribune to lake I
thu ulatlor up and if possible enlist
the effortsoC Medford young men in
perfecting nik'Ii nit organization.
