Mnnnpcr Frankie Kdward-t received
word yesterday from Hunts William
accepting tho matcli with Jaok John
&n,'lhe Ibortl colored boxer.
The bout will be the main event of
the Nntntoriuni Athletic club's next
Amoker, January 8, and is surely a
good starter for the New Year, as
Uiose boys are more of the seasoned
and- experienced kind of boxers, and
they no doubt will put up a contest
worth going a long way to see.
They will box fix rounds and weigh
in at A 54 pounds.
Besides the main go there will bo
a special event and two preliminaries.
Thnt popular prices may be
charged, tho large skating rink of the
Natntonum has been secured.

MEDFORD is worth a grout deal to Oregon as a path
finder and ohjeet lesson.. She blazes the trail in
municipal endeavor, that 0(11018 may follow.
Mcdford was the pioneer in community publicity work.
She issued the first pamphlet descriptive of the country's

resources. ne was tne urst ot tno uregon cuies 10 ad
vertise. All tho other cities have followed.
Mcdford has led the wav in municipal improvements
in water systems, sewer systems, and in paving. The
other towns are following her lead and shaking off the
lethargy of decades. .
Medford has led tho good roads fight. She first recog
nized scencrv as an asset. She initiated the movement to
improve Crater Lake park, now advocated by tho admin
istration. Jackson county has out the rod tape that hin
dered highway work by issuing bonds for their construc
tion. Medford is to establish a public market, thus aiding
the solution of the market problem for the producer. If it
is successful, they will be established throughout the state.
In many other lines of municipal endeavor Medford points
the wav. Her beneficial example to other cities is shown
by the following item from the Oregon City Ceurier:
"Down in Medford the other day the Commercial club
unanimously voted for public market days.
"In Oregon City we hum over it week after weok and
then let it slide.
"fn Mcdford there was not a dissenting voice against
trying out this trade drawing idea.
"Now commercial clubs the world over are lanrolv
made up of business men, and circumstantial evidence
tends to show that the business men of Medford are guilty
of pulling together.
"The result is that while Oregon City 'considers,' Med
ford does.
"This isn't a slain on tho Commercial club or Live
Wires. Thev have done much for Oregon Citv in the past
four years. This is just a little slam to keep 'em moving
up closer together.
"We have got to get together, hide jealousies and pull
for the citv's good.
.Nursing grouches won t get things halt as last as

day tendency for buyers tfi hold off

fecij of -making tho market for tho
week somewhat slow. The slight sup
plies were just about up to the re

n Christians steer at 10 cents, which
weighed 2100 pounds mid dressed
72.14 per cent. This is n phenomenal,
dress for a 2-year-old mill under 3
steer. The cow market showed an
inureaso, and on'Hjc whole prices.iniiy
bo'tfnid to be stronger and higher at
the week's close.
The hog market showed further
weakness, tops boing !f(1.40. Tho ar
rival of contracted doliverios had a
damaging effoot on tho price of local
hogs, a condition which is duo to the
failui;o of shippers to notify com
mission men of their anticipated
movement of live stock. Had tho
market handlors known of tho hogs
that were coming forward to market
hoy might have prevented the plac
ing of contraot for eastern pur

STRAW votes arc being taken all over the country by
all sorts of journals. The surprising thing about
them is that everv one so far announced, whether it be
east, west or south, or whether it be national in character,
reflects a public sentiment unfavorable to Taft and favor
able to La Follette.
As the result of a national plebiscite or referendum
conducted during a period of sixtv davs bv the Farm and
Home Magazine, La J7ollette received a total of 2G90 votes
for the presidency as against 3(53 for Roosevelt and 10G2
for Taft.
While the characteristic La Follette strength is shown
in the states of the middle west, two surprising items in
the poll evidence that the Wisconsin senator is head and
shoulders above all other candidates in New England and
the south among the tanners.
"La-Follette," answer G5 per cent of the votes, while
Taft receives 25 per cent and Roosevelt 10 per cent. Sent
tinient is overwhelming from Maine to Texas and from
New Jersey to California for initiative, referendum, re
call, popular election of senators and lower tariffs.
Stand-patters are those who cling to exploded fallacies
and try through partisanship and prejudice to induce the
people to cling to harmful policies and special legislation.
In other words, the stand-patter is the mossback of pol
itics. As a recent writer remarks :
"When the crab outgrows his shell it sloughs off and
so far as we know, he otfers no objection, but takes the
new shell which answers his needs better. But we, who
consider ourselves infinitely superior to the ;rab, try to
compel ourselves to keep within the bounds of old
thoughts, la3r habits and outgrown customs after we no
longer need them. When we arc unfortunate enough to
succeed, we rejoice at our cramped souls, as the Chinese
woman prides hersclt upon her cramped, misshapen toot.

"STABLE" METHODS DISTURBED.
TIIE optimistic and cheery Gold Hill News contains the
following reply to the captious, carping criticism of
a vinegar tempered, sour faced plaj'inatc in the garden of
jeurnalism:
"Says the Portland Oregonian, venomous critic of Clov
ernor West: 'He has got into trouble through his egregious
meddling with stable methods of government. '
"That's just it 'stable' methods of government. Tt
is 'stable' methods of government that Governor West litis
been trying to clean up ever since his inauguration he
and Ben Olcott, his secretary of state. To the Oregonian
tins is nothing less than sacreligious meddling.
"By till means, the governor should let the Salem
"stables" stand as they have always stood. Don't clean
out a single stall. Don't let in the light. Don't ventilate.
Let every old departmental grafter continue to munch at
the public, crib. Lead out no worthless old nag that lias
been eating his head off at public expense for years.
Don't touch a single sacred, stinking straw of the old
'stable' method of government. Don't make state institu
tions self-supporting. Don't give penitentiary inmates tt
chance at useful labor in the open air, under the broad
blue sky. Keep them penned up like cattle such was the
'stable' method in vogue aforetime, good enough since time
began, good enough now, always and forever.
"Yes, Governor West 'litis got' into trouble because of
his progressive, humanitarian policies. But tho scat of the
trouble is in the editorial stomach of the Oregonian; also
the location of the most pitiful and apparently the most
chronic case of aggravated mossback dyspepsia on record.
"West has made good, lie is manfully performing aL
