FOR the past tou or fifteen years at least the supreme
court oC Ohio has been trying to aequire a reputation
equal to unit ot tlio suprome court 01 1'onnsyivanm as a
faithful servant of monopolistic corporations. When Attorney-General
Monnott started n number of suits against
the. Standard Oil company and similar monopolies, he
found that the merits of his ease cut very little figure with
that court. Later, when Tom L. Johnson started his fight
for three cent fares and for equal taxation of railroad and
street railway property, hu found that the judges of the
Ulno supreme court coma not nave ueen more paruai 10
those corporations it they iiau ueen opemy roraiuou as at
torneys for them. In order to protect monopolistic inter
ests, thev even rendered a decision overturning the gov-

ennuentoi every oiiyin tuesiaie. xi is nor. surprising uiimi
to hoar of the latest manner in which it has distinguished
itself.
There is a vigorous campaign tieing carried on in Ohio
for the initiative and referendum, and it looks now as
though there will be an overwhelming popular vote in fav
or ofthese measures. The interests are clearly alarmed. So
when a question was brought before the supreme court re-
laung ro a law requiring puysiciaiis to iii.iku cerium re
ports, that august bodvsaw fit to render a decision nullify
ing this law in such a way as to give it an excuse to utter
some irrelevant side remarks that might be construed as
bearing on the initiative and referendum question. It de
clared tiic act void, not on account of any unconstitutional
feature, but because it was said to be contrary to the ordi
nance of 17S7 and then went on to intimate that there were
tilings in that ordinauee which would invalidate a pure de
mocracy and that since it ante-dated the constitution,
aiarcu sn kJ'JJta H 5S nothing could be put in the constitution to revoke it. In
other words, the court holds that the states lormeu out 01
the old northwest territory have not boen admitted to the
union on equal terms with other states. Other states may
amend their constitutions to suit themselves, but these
states must first obtain the consent of congress, if these
side remarks of Ohio's supreme judges have been proper
ly understood. Can fidelity to predatory interests cro any
further? Taf t's conduct in regard to Arizona seemed high
handed enough, but Arizona was still a territory under the
control of congress. But a state admitted to tlie union is
supposed to be sovereign in all things that do not conflict
with the federal constitution. Ohio needs not only a new
constitution, but a now lot of supreme judges as well.

MR. FARMER, CAN YOU AFFORD IT?
CAN you afford to continue to haul your loads over the
present roads when it will cost you not one cent more
than you are hoav paying to enjo' the use of a good hard
surfaced road, free from ruts a,nd mud at all season of the
year?
Good roads will enable you to bring in wood at a time
when fuel is most needed and prices the highest, and when
you have no other work pressing on the farm.
Good roads Avill enable you to bring in hay, potatoes
and other products when you have leisure to market them,
and prices are right.
Good roads will bring rural free delivery to every farm
in the county.
Build good roads and enjoy them now, and thousands
of people yet to come will help to pay for them.

The Peoples Amusement Company

used by the public of Medford. It is
also good news on this occasion to
announce that Mr. A- Sathcr, the
newly appointed manager of the
house, is in the city superintending
the final preparations for tho open
ing. Mr. Sathcr is an experienced
theatrical manager, having come to
Medford from being manager of one
of the company's theatres in PorU

manager, Mr. Bather possesses a
tenor voico of exceptional sweetness,
and is sure to prove n great success

having nromised everything possible
in the way of a properly equipped

Many Residents Putting In Winter's
Supply Thousands Of Cords
Have Been Shipped In Sells From
$5.00 To $6.50.
There will surely be no shortage
of fire wood in Medford this com
ing winter if the supply now visiblq
may be taken as a forecast.
It is said by one who has traveled
over the Southern Pacific between
Medford and Qlendalo that north of
Grants Pass at every railroad siding
there arc piled thousands of cords a
seasoned .firewood. Besides this
supply tho Pacific & Eastern rail
road has brought in scvoral thousand
cords from the Butte Falls country,
nnd there is considerable more in
that section still to be brought out.
Cordwood is now selling in Med
ford at from .$5 to $0.00 per cord
and many town people aro putting
in their winter supply.
Last winter the price at ono time
went to $12 per cord. Whether this
was caused by scarcity or by com
bination is not quito clear in the
minds of some consumers who wero
compelled to pay this extortionate
and unreasonable price. All tho deal
ers here declare it was a holdup al
