TILTS week -witnessed a shipment of n envload of (i?s
from Mcdford, the first carload shipment of this
produce from the Rogue river valley. Jn addition, there
are many eases of eggs being shipped out of the valley
dailv by' express.
this ear will bring the poullrymen $2000. It is im
portant as marking the beginning of what is destined to
be tho development of oiie of the great resources of
southern Oregon.
There is no reason why tho output should not attain a
envload a day or seveval carloads, supplemented by ear
loads of poultry. Conditions are more favorable here for
poultry raising than in any section of the United States.
Petaluma secures a' gross revenue of ten million dol
larsa year from its poultry industry. This is the equiva
lent of ten thousand cars of fancy fruit.
-If only a small portion of the idle land about Mcdford.
unsuitable for orchards, was utilized for poultry, in a
short tune the revenue irom this source would equal the
revenue from orchards and a much steadier source ot in
come, with no fear of frost.
Owners of idle tracts of comparatively worthless land
should make it a business to offer special inducements to
the )oultrvmen, sell on such easv terms that any one can
purchase, or lease for small amounts, for poultry enriches!
tne sou as wen as produces revenue.
Turkeys should receive special attention, for local
conditions are peculiarly adnjrted to their production, and
much money can be secured by raising them in small num
bers as a side issue to the orchard or farm.
On an acre of land, with water, an industrious worker
can raise in this clinic not only all the produce his family
consumes, but poultry enough to realize a good income.
ITere is a chance for the unemployed and for the I. AV.
AY. to divert into a useful channel the energy too often
expended in useless agitation, fomenting discontent but
too often Ihey are not looking for work, such as is essential
to make any industry profitable.

COMMUNICATION.
To the editer: Kindly permit mo
space for a most pertinent Question,
Why the apathy of voters In gener
al on tho subject of improvement in
public schools?
If I succeed ouly in causing some
to think 1 shall bo satisfied.
Has It occurred to the voters and
fathers that only one candidate for
county superintendent of schools has
filed for nomination at the primaries
this week?
Do you, voters, simply rest easy In
tho knowledge, that tho present in
cumbent who has filed for renomina
tion has drawn his salary fo the past
two terms? How many of you in
vestigated his qualifications when
first lie sought the office, or have
since proven them? The superinten
dent pays tho required number of
brief visits to each district and con
fers with school boards consisting vt
good men, but many of whom aro not
parents, therefore for the most part
indifferent nnd a largo percentage
aro mossbacks who have never learn
ed why schools aro graded.
Mothers have bitterly annulled the
Medford schools but, how much
moro criticism can bo made against
rural schools, where pupils come from
almost primitive homes (?) and yet
thu pupils aro told that "tho cow up
and died'' reforonco Is mndo to
"nnt-oyo" tobacco users, and pupils
between 12 and 14 years, aro directed
to "skip over" board measure Jn
arithmetic.
Aio women ellglblo to the oftlco of
superintendent of schools? If so is
thero not n bright, energetic woman
to elect who will bo a credit to the
Offico by Improving tho lighting, ven
tilation and sanitation; beautifying
both school rooms and grounds, ut
least lay a foundation for depart
ment's 0f manual training, domestic
science, music and drawing and put
u cud to tho present stagnation, for
nowhoie Is grouter progress being
made than along educutlonal lines all
ever tho world,
. A PROGRESSIVE MQTIIKR.
t Ctoilral Poiiil, April 19t . i
THE attitude of most lawyers toward the judicial recall
c is amusing. They view the courts with the same
awe and veneration that royalists view the throne.
As the records of the courts show a trail of corruption
throughout the country, as main- of the decisions now read
into the Jaw bv precedent are the work of notoriously cor
rupt judges, appointed by corporation financed political
bosses to carry out the wishes pf their creators, tin's atti
tude is nbsurd.
The judge is the creation of the electorate, and stands
on no pedestal making him immune from criticism or re
moval. The same power that creates ought to be able to
destroy.
In this regard a recent speech hy Mayor W. .T. Gay nor
of New York Citv, former chief justice, is worfhv of quo
tation, as clear!' defining the attitude of the layman as
well as more liberal attorneys. He savs:
"Do the courts in this country stand in the way of
social and economic progress? Yes, they do, and have
done so for a long tune. J3ut this is nothing new. In all
ages, and prett much everywhere, the courts have tried
to apply their legal rules of thumb to social, commercial
and economic matters, always with signal failure, and gen
erally with injury to industry, commerce and the social
good.
"Nothing is more distressing than tosce a bench of
judges, old men, as a rule, set themselves against the mani
fest and enlightened will of the community in matters of
social, economic or commercial progress. The same is true
in matters of morals and religious growth also, .fesus,
Socrates, and many who came after them, age after age,
fell victims to judicial narrow-mindedness. But the ad
verse decisions of courts have not been able to stop human
progress. Sometimes they baffle it for the time being.
Sometimes, by creating exasperation in the intelligent
mind, they accelerate it.
"Courts declare legislation unconstitutional which ex
ceeds their opinion of what is economically or socially wise
or beneficial. No sucji power was ever given to the courts.
They have simply taken it away from the legislative de
partment of government. They have set themselves up
as the "protectors" of society against the law-making
power, safeguarded as it is hy the consent of two houses
and the executive Teto. They do not seem to consider who
is to protect us against them in their judicial legislation.
In the cases of the underground bakeries, the manufacture
of tobacco in tenements, the working of women in fac
tories at night, and so on, was not the legislature, repre
senting the community, as fit, at least, as an' judge, or a
bench of a few judges, mere mortals like the rest of us, to
judge of the wisdom or advisability of the laws passed,
from the standpoint of the moral, economic and social wel
farc and progress of society?"
