JOLTS AND JINGLES
By Ad Brown
nl notion to secure
ongross of half a
the Orator Lake
National "PtiVJk and tho roads lending thereto through tho
national forest.
Engineers have finished their survoy for a road around
tho rim of the, orator and other improvement's necessary
in the park, whieh will oost approximately .$100,000. The
road through the reserve and other improvements will
mean another $100,000, so that $500,000 will cover tho.
mouoy needed. fy
Tho matter must be taken up wjrth Washington officials
before congress meets December 1st. The secretary of tho
interior and other departmcntxchiefs arc now making up
their recommendations for submission to congress, and up
on these recommendations depend tho appropriations for
tnc coming two yen re.
There never was a time when people of Jackson coun
ty were in better shape to demand1 the active co-operation
of the government in park improvement. They have cer
tainly demonstrated their good faith in their efforts to
make the park accessible to tourists. As a result scvernl
thousand automobiles visited tho p&rk this year, as against
none three years ago, and a fjew two yea re ago.
Through public subscriptions raised by the Mod ford
Commercial Club $23,000 has been, expended iji the con
struction of one of the most difficult sections of the Crater
Lake highway. This has been suppliniented by some five
miles ol new road built by .Jackson county.
The state of Oregon has at last co-operated in the con-
situcJjou of this state highway by tho loan of convicts ior
ioati wornna tne establishment ot a permanent camp.
The poophof Jackson county have authorized the issu
ance of aimllu&i'Kud n half dollars road bonds for the con
struction of porpiaiiesnf''Jughwnys.
All of these facts properly presented to the "Washington
officials, will create a favorable impression anil probably
result in securing the needed recommendations by depart
ment duels ana tavorable action bv congress.

OLD NECESSITY'S" WISDOM.
Tho plays ol today seem awful tame
When I look back on tho years
To tho time I used to sit up high
And nilnglo laughs with tears.
Wo used to sit, each ncrvo athrlll.
Three solid acts of slaughter.
And hiss tho villlan when he struck
Tho "Gambler's Only Daughter."
The eavrotflls used to "grind them' up"
, Jndtfcotton presses squeeze
(Tho Gillian wore a black mustache?
And ga!tcn to his knevs.)
Tho plays toJay are much too tame,
They're all cut down and boiled,
No trains run orer damsels fair.
No villlan hisses "foileJ."
'THAT fountain head of all .-judicial wisdom. Attorney
- General Crawford, is out with an opinion questioning
the validity of the road bonds voted by Jackson county.
The attorney general was not asked for any opinion
upon these bonds, is entirely ignorant of the conditions un
der which they were voted, and, as customarv, bnses his
learned opinion upon an entirely false premise.
Tho attorney general's .job is that of legal adviser to
state officials. Prom these modest duties, however, he has
inflated his position into that of sort of a minor supreme
court to decide in advance of court rulings in an off-hand
and careless fashion on misinformation, questions con
cerning the validity and constitutionality of statutes.
Attorney General Crawford has evidently earned his
inVk-nmo-olL" Old -Necessity" for- necessity knows no
law. ' ct -f
An Idea for an cxcluslvo little Mod
ford club -would be for all thoso who
voted against tho bond Issue to organize.

SUAREZ MAY NOT
BE VICE PRESIDENT
MEXICO CITY, Oct. 3. The clot
tlon of Pono Suarez as tlce president
of Moxlco Is admitted today to bo
doubtful and may have to bo settled
finally when tho chamber of deputies
consldors the returns as between Su
nroz and Vasqucz Gomez, his rival for
tho office.
If this Is found necessary when tho
completed roturns havo been received
Francisco I. Madero, who is surely
elected presldont, will advlso that ho
prefers Suarez as his second In com
maud.
Climax voted for kooc! roads. Jim
Kershaw, Angora Goat Kinp, says to
and it is worlk any man's life to
tell him he is mistaken. Jim says the
voto wns nine in fnvor and eight
against and not vise versa as was
reported-Monday. . ...
Mr. Kcrshnw is very indignant over
the nffront offered his precinct on
Antelope creek, and he spent Tuesday
moniinj; in Medfofd correcting the
report.
"I wan nil the world to kow,''
states Mr, ivemhnw, "that Cjimnx
gave good roads a majority I
"watched tho votine nil day n'ld I
knew eight votes had heen cast for
and against. I wns the last man to
vote and I cinched the precinct for
tho bonds. Now you correct thai re
port or there will be trouble."
Hence this correction for Jia ii
a big man.
