JOLTS AND JINGLES
By Ad Brotra
Job for K. J.
. Dear Mr. J. & Ji Your Mr. K. J
must hnve had an extraordinary il
lusion yesterday (Aug. 23). He said
that ho was sorry you "failed in your
efforts to have the red white and
blue lights on the Commercial club
building changed." Tell J. K. ho
surely must be color blind, or has
imbibed too much bug jnicey taking
green for blue. His liberal offer to
change the lights frco of charge will
bo accepted, the change to bo made
according to specifications best snit
cd to the committee on illumination,
change to be made after Oct. 7, the
close of Medford's big fair. Sickcm
npELE divinity that hedges about a federal judire whris
- a law unto himself and greater in power than leg
islatures or congress, state courts or thu people, u strik
ingly set forth in the ease of Judge C. II. llanford, firm
friend of the interests, who has set about jailing Seattle
citizens because a mass meeting denounced his rulings in
favor of a traction company and burned him in effigy.
Priday night 5000 people of Seattle in mass meeting
denounced Hanford's interference in the case of the Seat
tlo, Rcntou and Southern railway, in which he had en
joined tho people from refusing to -pay double fares. The
following day arrests were made on warrants charging
"conspiracy to obstruct the administration ot jusjioe m
the United States court."
"Administration of justice " is clover satire in this case,
for the points at issuo had been thoroughly threshed out
in two suns aim me suite courts, lrom xne lowest vo uie
supreme court, have with unanimity decided in favor of
the people.
The questions involved wero the demand of the people
to ride for a nickol fare within the city limits and the right
to transfers to tho Seattlo Electric company's lines on
the payment b a nickol fare, as provided specifically in the
franchiso granted by the eitv to the Seattle, Kenton and
Southern in May, 1907.
The company made no pretense whatover to colnply
with these franchise" provisions. In February 1910, two
suits were commenced by the Rainier Valley' residents.
The first determined, through; the railroad commission,' the
superior court, and finally the supreme court, tha.1 the
franchise calls tor a continuous ride withm the city limits
on the payment of one nickel only. The company had
heretofore exacted as much as 15 cents to some points.
The sqeoud suit, going through the same legal processes,
adjudicated that point that the two street car companies
in Seattle must exchange transfers. This decision was
made a few weeks ago by the supreme court, and since
then the people have been insistent in their demands tlntf
the company submit to it. .
Judge Hanford then came to the company's rescue
with a blanket injunction against the people one of the
most drastic evei" issued. ;-

RAILROAD TO REACH
BEND BY NOVEMBER
TIIE PACIFIC OUTLOOK, published at Grants Pass,
complains loudly and bitterly that the prohibition
law in Grants Pass is ignored and that the pretense at en
forcement is a sorry farce. Says the Outlook:
"The entire corps of city officials, from the mayor
down to the dog-catcher pass the ."joints where ihe law is
violated every dav of their lives. They are all sufficiently
posted in this line to recognize tho fumes of liquor as they
pass the doors. They kiiQW that men in all stages of in
toxication are. reported hanging about these joints. They
know that boozers arc being taken to the office of the
police judge and fined for drunkenness and disorder. They
know that scores of citizens have tlic best kind of evidence
against these joints. But we never hear of any raids be
ing made upon these places. There is never an attempt
on the part of any official to piece together these bits of
'circumstantial evidence and make out a case against
any of these violators."
Then the Outlook concludes:
"With these conditions existing, what could be more
unfair and inconsistent than the repeated remark '"Why.
don't you temperance people do something about this?'
Verily, it is enough to make an angel smile in ridicule
through his tears of sorrow this spectable of a cultured,
Christian community tolerating and condoning an offense
against God and man, simply because a sufficiently large
majority of its citizens has not yet been convinced that
such an offense is an offense."
In spite of prohibition, Grants Pass is far more "wide
open" than Medford. Liquor of all kinds is brazenly,
openly sold on Sunday which is not the case in Medford.
It is said that prohibition cannot be enforced in Grants
Pass because juries will not convict. But this docs not
excuse the county and city officials for violating their
oaths of office, and not enforcing the law.
Prohibition is enforced in other places and would be
in Grants ffass it' the people fyantefl jt., .
