BREAK GROUND FOR
EXPOSITION IN OCTOBER
k-i-
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 31. Ten
tativo plans reached today by Presi
dent Mooro of tho Panama Pacific
Exposition company aro to have the
ground'hroaklng ceremonies held Oh
Saturday, October 14. Tho plans,
howovor, nro subject to change, if
necessary to suit -tho convenience of
President Taft. , .
THE progress of tho city beautiful idea is disappoint
ingly slow in MtidftmL The utilitarian idea, hu other
words the commercial spirit, hasvCull possession of the
city administration and of the citizens, but the equal
value to the community of beaut ifieation is not yet grasped.
It is all right to pave streets, to extend water and sewer
mams, to lay concrete sidewalks, but these, alone do not
make a city attractive, alluring or enticing. And for a
city with the aspirations and ambitions of Medford it is
just as essential to the realization of its dreams to become
the city beautiful as it is to bocomo the city well paved.
Medfbrd is deficient in park systems, deficient in street
lighting, deficient in shade trees, and no municipal effort
is forthcoming to remedy the situation.
For six months the council has struggled with cluster
lights for main streets. Practically all property owners,
with the exception of a fow mossbaelcs, have agreed to
pay lor tho postsstill there are no cluster lights.
The Southern Pacific stands ready to vacate the rail
way right of way from Sixth to Eighth streets, order the
shacks now adorning it off, and permit its beautification
as a park if the city council so requests yet the request
is not forthcoming. The ladies of the Greater Medford
club stand willing to assume charge of the parking pro
cess yet they are given no opportunity.
"What little effort is made towards beautification is
due solely to the public spirit of individuals and the club
women. It is time the city administration took a hand
and there is no time like the present.
. . -T
THE LORD HELPS THEM THAT HELP THEMSELVES.
T OUD complaint is heard among the farmers because
-J there is no public market in Medtord.
There should be, both for the benefit of the farmer
and of the consumer.
A public market will help lower the cost of living and
that is one of the things we are seeking.
Local merchants cannot be expected to lielp in solv
ing the problem. At present they control the situation
pay often in merchandise, thus reaping a double profit.
. The city council could help along the matter if it chose.
Here's a chance for our socialist councilman to make a
record.
Jji the meantime, farmers should remember that the
Lord helps them that help themselves.
The middlemen are organized the grocers and the
butchers and the candlestick makers evervbodv the farm
er! buys front and most of those he sells to are organized for
mutual protection. Wiiy don't the farmers organize for
their own protection and establish their own market t
The f armors will be the chief beneficiaries of a public
market. They will find if they show an interest and take
therinitiative that ample support will be forthcoming
among Medford consumers to enable the successful es
tablishment and operation of a public market.
BEGETTING LAWLESSNESS.
KAISER SELLS
VJULEHECM
Dean of Southern Oregon Journalism
Retires After 23 Years of Contin
uous Work Without a Vacatlon
Charles Barncttc Wolf Purchaser.
ASSISTANT DISTRICT ATTORNEY E.- S. VAN
, DYKE of Grants Pass has rather strange ideas of
inculcating respect for the laws when he openly denounces
thein on the street and in the newspapers. '
Mr. Van Dyke says: "I appreciate very fully the im
Vcrtance of a strict prosecution of tho violation of any law
existing on tho statute books of the state of Oregon and
the evil effect on the body politic, which the support of
lawlessness engenders."
Then he follows with: "I have my opinion of the jus
tice of the fishing laws and have never hesitat
ed to say, nor do I hesitate now to make public my belief
that the closing of Rogue river to commercial fishing has!
Leen a great injustice to Grants Pass and its surrounding
territory."
Do not such utterances, coming from the man sworn
to uphold the law, have the "evil effect on the body poli
tic which the support of lawlessness engenders'"?
A district attorney who thus publicly condemns
laws breeds a contempt for the law which begets lawless
ness.
Probably Mr. Van Dyke also thinks the prohibition
;aw an injustice- and therefore makes no attempt to 'en
force it. Perhaps this is the reason why prohibition is
a failure ill Grants Pass.
Entertaining though it may be, the people do not pay
assistant district attorneys to comment upon the laws the
people pass themselves. They are paid merely to enforce
i;hem, and are expected to direct their energies to this end.
CUPID SCORNS TO GET

cut his work down considerably as
is attested by the fact tliut.during the

only issued sixteen licenses to wed
in the county. In June Cupid made
his biggest record, having 47 couples
tied up. In July he ran tho numbsi
into tho thirty and thought that in
August he would Iny off. Now that
