TO BE ENFORCED
WASniN'OTON. March 13. Pres
ident Tnft has arranged to confer
over the situation hi Mexico with
Secretary Stlmson, Senator Culber
son and the Texns congressional del
egation. It is understood tho presi

press Texas authorities that neutral

and that no aid to Mexican insur

It was learned that after tho con
ference the president may Issue a
statement defining the attitude of the
United States'toward Mexico and Riv
ing assurance to tho Mexicans that
tho United States has now no Inten

President Taft toldi callers today
he would not consider intervention

take such stops.
An alarming roport came from
Ambassador "Wilson today that many
Americans in the western part of
Mexico nrc destitute and needed help
to get out of the country. Consider
ation will probably bo given by the
state department as tho best means
to get them out by way of the west

"THEY GOTTA QUIT KICKIN' OUR DAWG
AROTJNV
A GENTLEMAN from Cheyenne, AVyo., wo have Ins
name and address, yesterday purchased twonty-(vo
aeVes of land from KnguclAnris, Inc. Ue has moved his
family here in short, he has heeome one of ns.
Hut had he not made a deposit with this eoinnan last
fall, he would not now he here !
lie would not 1)0 here because he would have been
stopped by tlun)lisiHteh't and malicious knocking of this
city and valley 'by other sections and by other sections
in this state !
We have every confidence in this gentleman's word.
ITe is an active business man who recentlv retired from
the employ of the Union Pacific railroad, after several
years of active duty as their agent at Cheyenne, Wyo
ming. He retired to make his home on an Oregon tract
of hind. I lis long service as an agent in passing out liter
ature urging a "back to the farm" policy finally induced
him to come. Yesterday he invested in ;i local tract. He
has seen for himself what the Hogue Hiver valley is, and
is confident of the future.
But he was not allowed to reach southern Oregon
unmolested. Only a partial payment made last November
offset the tales he was told at Portland, Salem. Eugene.
Among other things he was told that:
Med ford is a bubble.
The Roirue River valler as a fruit growing section is
a joko.
Hot air alone keeps up this section.
TIie roads are impassable during five months of the
year.
The climate is on a par with the winters- of Dakota and
the summers of Arizona.
Hundreds of people are forsaking this valley for other
sections.
The supreme court threw out our bond issue because
we were taxed so heavilv we couldn't iav our debts.
Farms and orchards by the score are now tenantlcss
and are ragged with neglect.
There are so many different kinds of soil that you
would get skinned anvwav.
The prize wildcat section of the state is the Rogue
.River valley, and Medford is its prophet.
The Southern Pacific is operating against us as the
town is dead.
"lou are getting one out
tins section, '- concludes the gentleman. "1 am indeed
surprised. I fully expected to get my deposit back, and
hike."
It is lamentable that the other sections of Oregon
should so maliciously slander Medford and the Rogue
River valley, whose only crime has1 been progress and
advancement. Verily, as Hamlet said:
"Rightly to be great '
Is not to stir without great argument."
It is not our purpose to defend the Rogue Rfver valley
nor Medford here they are, let them stand for them
selves, for thej' need no defense. In a great state like
Oregon it is a regret to see it torn by petty jealousies and
sectional strife. The upbuilding of every district is a mat
ter in which every other district should take pride. Let
not one tear down another for its own advancement, for
therein lies destruction. Let
the best you have then if he would first see other dis
tricts let him see them. Come gentlemen:
"Away with discord
Lest it spread, and like a two edged sWord,
Seek om own end."
LA FOLLETTE CLUB
LOS ANGELES. Cal., March 13.
The La Follctto club of Lob Angeles
Is on record today with a stinging re
buke to Governor Johnson for failing
to reply to questions tho organiza

"Do the trenchant sentences of his
(Johnson's) Saturdtty speech ans

Tho statement concludes with an
other question to Governor Johnson,
as follews:
"Is it because you sought the jus
tice of your case that you neglected
to answer the questions that are be
ing put to you wherever you appear
concerning your recent attitude to
