ADMIRAL SCHLEY
SUDDENLY
DIES
Aged Admiral Drops Dead on Forty
fourth street, New YorkHas
Long Suffered from Heart Disease
Has Lived Long in Retirement.
NEW YORK. Oct. 'J. Admiral W.
S. Schley dropped dead in 4-Jtli street
near the comer of Fifty avenue, to-J
dav. He had Ion;: suffered from
heart disease.
In recent years the ndmiral was
not able for his championing of Dr.
Frederick A. Cook's claim to being
tho discoverer of the North Pole.
Since his retirement from active ter
vice he had lived quietly in iVubli
iuutou and New York.
Admiral Winfleld Scoll Schley
would have been 72 years of ago m
a week. Ho was a native of Freder
ick City, Md., appointed to tho United
States naval academy in 185G and
graduating in 1SU0, his promotion
was rapid and by 1874 he had come
to be a commodore. He was appoint
ed rear admiral in 181)9.
During the war with Spain Schley
commanded tho "flying squadron"
and ho was in immediate command of
tho vessels in the attack on Santiago
du Cuba, which resulted in the de
struction of Admiral Ccrvera's ,pcct.
A memorable controversy followed
this battle as to whether the credit
for the victory belonged to Schley or
to Admiral Sampson.
RECALL INSULT
SAYS GIBBOUS
- -
Storm of Comment is Caused by Dec
laraticn of Cardinal Says Cor
rupt Judge Not as Dangerous as
the Slave.
t .
UALTIMOItPi, Md., Oct. 2. That
the recall is an insult to the dignity,
independence and 6clf-rcspect of the
judiciary, is a statement made )y
Canliuul Gibbous which is caubing a
storm of comment toduy throughout
the fust.
In a sermon delivered here, Car
dinal Gibbons said: v a,
"Far less menacing to tho common
wealth is the occasional corrupt in
competent jtiilj4U than the one who
would ho the habituul fdavu of the
capricious multitude, with his ear
ulwiiys, to the ground, tryjng to find
tho peoplo' veidit't.!'1"
Look for tho nd that dpsoribps lue
place you would liko to own,
TP BOND ELECTION
TIJ10 county bond election tlujuQiistruteil conclusively
that Jnekson county is tho most progressive county
in Oregon. The majority for good roads was greater, in
proportion to votes oast, than any other county in tho state
could muster. The election stamps the people of the
Uogue ftiver valley as the most enlightened and up-to-date
of those of any portion of tho great northwest.
A study of tho returns shows that, tho bonds had a
clear majority outside the cities of aModford and Ashland
and that those who will be most benefitted tho farmers
and orchard ists, understand tho necessity and value of per
manent high wa vs.
t
Ashland's vote was a disappointment, though not. a
surprise. Ashland is still troverncd by petty animosity and
factional jealousy. She has never been able to understand
or forgive Aledford for growing. Then the election ctinie
too suddenly. Ashland always approaches public im
provement like a oral) first she backs off, then sidles
around and finally approves it. She is still in the bucking
off stage on good rouds. But Ashland should cease playing
a discord in the choir of progress in .laokson county. She
should make common cause With her sister towns in work
ing for the common good or she will find herself ignored
and isolated. She opposes a united county.
Almost without exception, the other precincts that
opposed the bonds were isolated sections that need good
roads worse than any other portion of the county regions
that are almost, completelv cut off during the winter raim
season. They are most inaccessible and will benefit more
bv good roads than the thicker populated parts. The rea
son they cast a majority vote against the bonds was be
cause they did not understand tle propositipn apd were si
scattered and isolated fha't they could not be reached foi
explanation.
As a result of the bond election, Jackson county is near
er united than ever before. The people realize more koenh
than ever the necessity and need of co-operation in the up
building of the entire section. The growth and develop
ment of any one section means the improvement of all
and this is realized more than ever.
Henceforth development plans must be on a broadci
plane. Publicity work must be more comprehensive and
less sectional. The building of the town need ijot concern
any of the communities. Their energies must be spent ii
developing the count' and as the county prospers, sc
will prosper the town. And it is universally admitted that
the greatest single factor in developing the country is
good roads.
A million and a half dollars is to be spent for perma
nent highways. The mam concern will be to get results
see that none of the money is squandered and that the peo
pie secure what they voted for. To this end, they will
look to the county court and the advisory committee it has
named.
It would be folly to attempt highway construction
without a skilled road builder to supervise and superin
tend. As Jackson county has led the state in voting for
good roads so must she lead in actual construction.
No matter what a skilled road builder costs, he will
save many times his salary in actual results. Tt was the
fear that themoney would be frittered away in poor con
struction aid indiscriminate purchase of road machinery
and wasted in various leaks that prevented the bonds from
carrying unanimously.
Medford, Ashland and Central Point have all secured
good results in city improvement. There is no reason why
the county should not secure equally good results, even
though road building requires more knowledge, skill and
science than the laying of pavement.
The entire county owes a debt of gratitude to the little
baud of -workers' who spread the good roads gospel. They
sacrificed their time and money freely to the cause actu
ated solely by good citizenship. It is this spirit of co-operative
altruism that is the strongest asset of any community
an4 explains lpuder.fhan words can, the progrcssiveness of
Jackson county.
