Two I.Ittlo Hoys Years ago a chubby youngster Played at making nlos of sand, And a playmate, frisky Teddy, Spoiled them with a ruthless hand. Teddy wont off to the White house, Whero ho stayed a term or two; E'ro he wrote back homo to Willie, "This Job's yours when I got through." Willie followed to tho White house, Now ho wants to keep the prizo, But tho same old playful Teddy Comes to spoil his pretty pies. Wives of tho democratic candl dates are to meet together at a Har mony breakfast. It is to bo advised that all hatpins bo loft with the at tendant at tho door. It cost eighty Ohioans $8.50 each tO'BQO acock fight. And still some people won't dig up one dollar to hear a concert. The road to learning is straight, and for that reason tho library board has decided to build a straight walk to the new building Instoad of a, curved ono that might fit iu with the general park scheme. Mcdford pays double the amount of taxes that, Ash land pays. Mcdford pays fifty percent more taxes than all the other incorporated cities of Jackson county together. Medford has never received anything for Medford from the county court. Everything Medford has requested has been tor the benefit of the county tit large. 3)espito Medford's largo payments to the county in taxes, none of the money has been spent in Medford. even the macadamizing of the county roads stopping half a mile from the city limits. Mcdford energv and Mcdford enterprise and Medford capital is largely responsible for the growth and devel6p ment of Jackson county. It is to Mcdford the county must look for future development of its dormant natural re sources. Medford is big enough and broad enough and wise enough to realize that it can only grow as the county grows and therefore is bending every energy to that end Mcdford enjoys harmonious relations with all the val ley. All the cities except Ashland lined up with Medford on the road bonds. Medford lends everv aid and every cooperation in the upbuilding of every section, it helped Ashland get an armory, fought for its normal school and is free from the animosities that actuate the granite city. The village press of Ashland, Gold Hill, "Woodville, for the past three months have never missed an opportunity to persistently malign, abuse, villify and belittle Medford. Every criticism of county af fail's was made the excuse for airing petty jealousy and animosity and prejudice against Medford, in the effort to create discord and strife, to line up the county against its most progressive city. One of the little papers would slander and all the rest copv to convev the impression that public sentiment sustained their libels. Now the object of all this mud-slinging has become apparent. Ashland would again, as it did for 20 vears. dictate county politics, control the county judgeship and have. the other towns, who have little in common, burn their fingers in pulling Ashland chestnuts out of the fire. George V. Dunn, who slept peacefully for four years at the courthouse and won fame for elevated roads, has been resurrected from oblivion and put forth as Ashland's candidate for c.ountv iudcro. Judge Dunn, an excellent gentleman personally, has SiSk'ti'S: nothing to recommend linn tor the position to whi h he again aspires. He is not progressive in any sense of the word. He fought road bonds, and is opposed to almost everything in the line of progress. His idea of business is that of the miser to sit on the lid and do nothing. POLITICAL CARDS (Paid Advortlsomcnt.) County Clerk. I hereby announce myself as a can didate for tho democratic nomination for tho offlco of couuty clerk, sub ject to the will of tho voters of that party at the primaries. I promlso the people of Jackson county that In case of my nomination and elcct'on I will fulfill the duties or the office ac cording to law and tho best of my knowledge and ability. W. II.

Just the thing for Dauclng Parties, Pat ent Leather Shoos, and for Breaking In New ShooC When rubbers or ovor- shocs become necossnry and your shoes pinch, Allen's Foot-Easo give Judge Dunn is not the man for the place. He has been tried and found wanting. He offers no constructive policy of reorganization. The careless, slipshod S3stems in effect at tho courthouse all obtained during, his regime He could have reorganized methods, but he didn't. Under him the expenditures were small, but it was difficult to find where the money went. To elect Dunn would be retracing our steps backward it would be retrogression in the fullest sense of the word. It can never be accomplished, for Jackson county has grown too big for small men to manage and must con tinue to advance. Wo Interview Tnft In consonanco with our steady purposo of giving all tho news first hand, wo Interviowed Prosldent Taft yestordny. We found the prosldent In his private room In company with tho faithful Archibald Butt. "Butt," said his majesty, "tell Mrs. Taft and my daughters to put cotton In their oars. I am going to read Theodoro's Columbus speech again." While Fido Butt was carrying out this request wo slipped In our open ing remark: "What chance have you for tho nomination?" "Every chance In the world, my boy. The delegates are already In structed. To him who hath tho del egates cometh the nomination." "But," we started onco more, and Archibald returning, pricked his cars. "But don't you reckon with the prossuro of public opinion? Won't Roosovolt win out by that forco alono?" "Run away and don't bother mo. Butt, call a soldlor and have this mutt put out. Can't you see I'm busy?" Wo lookod at our watch and hap pened to think that it was time to catch tho train, so rogrotfully we do-parted. ROAD SUPERVISORS NEGLECT LAW. COMMUNICATIONS. To tho Editer: in your write-up on Fobruary 28th, of tho institution of Eaglo Point Lodge No. 227, I. O. O. I, your readers woro load to infer that, through neglect on tho part of tho officials of tho Pacific and East ern railway company, no special ro turn train was run from Eagle Point and that visitors woro forced to re main in Eaglo Point until morning. These faats aro true, but it was through no fault of tho railway offi cials, Tho commltteo on transporta tion did not iuk for a spoclal roturn train, expecting tho work to keop tho brothron busy until tho tlmo of tho regular morning train. Wo slncoroly rogrot tho incident but fool that tho railway officials should be exonerated from all blame. Your respectfully, FRANK Ij. SALTER, M. h. DAILY, Commltteo ou Transportation. ATTENTION" of county road supervisors, the county court and the district attorney is respectfully called to section G317 of Lord's code, which provides that road supervisors must erect signs and mile posts at road inter sections or draw no pay. The section referred to reads as follews: "Section 6317 Every supervisor shall erect and keep up at the forks of every highway and every crossing of public roads within his road district a guide or finger board, containing an inscription, in legible letters, direct ing the way and specifying the distance to the next town or public place situated on each road, respectively: pro vided, that the road supervisors shall not be paid after submitting their report to the county court until they have shown to the satisfaction of the court that the provisions of this section have been complied with." Every road supervisor in Jackson county has failed to comply with this law and the pay of each can and should be held up until the law is complied with. There is scarcely a sign post in the county. There is not a county mile post. It is up to the supervisors to get busy. Under Commissioner Patterson's regime, a road survey of the county was made and each road measured and lo cated, so that the required information is on tap for the supervisors to make use of.
