"Stand by your party's candidates, "Don't Join tho other side, "Together wo will win success "Wo fall If wo divide." Thus spake a man to me today, And soon I found out that Ho had been named to run against A good stronjy democrat., j " Before Medford gets thoroughly embarked upon this city beautiful program let's decide whether It shall be Medford beautiful, beautiful Med ford . or Mcdford-beautlful.

Til 1C state supronu- court lias romlored nnotlior oftl decisions which disgust the lnynum, in tho lrioi versus Olcoit (University of Oregon) ease. The uninij iani technicality is ponderously considered while tho real merits of the proceeding are untouched, and fraud and Jorgory permit tod to triumph. The proceedings were brought to prevent the fraudu lent referendum petitions against the state university from appearing upon the ballot. In tho circuit, court trial the petitions wore shown to have been fraudulently circu lated and adorned with forged signatures, tho result of potty spile on tho part of Cottage Grove against hugene for blocking tho creation of the' proposed now county of Nosmilh. The court does not enter far as fraud, with relation to the petitions, is concerned, but contents itself with dejiliny entirelv with the oueslion of whether, under tho law, injunction proceedings against the secretary ot state to restrain him from plaeimr the title of the bills on the bal lot. It holds that in injunction proceedings tho plaintiff must show that ho is injured, and that in the case at bar it cannot be shown that he is injured in any property or civil right by the contemplated action of the secretary of state, and that neither will his political right to vote on the ques tion when the election is held be infringed upon. The decision moans that the title of the two bills will be placed on the ballot at the next general election, and that the people will be given an opportunity of saying whether they will approve or reject them. It means that the lnoss backs will be given another opportunity to oppose progress, anil that the battle for higher education must be fought all over again. The decision cripples for another year the leading state educational institution and retards the progress of Oregon. CANDIDATE FOR SENATOR. THE democratic primary vote for United States sen ator indicated the wide popularity of the nominee, Dr. Harry Lane, who late m the day, upon solicitation ot friends, consented to let his name go upon the ballot. Al though he made no campaign than that of his two competitors combined. Dr. Lane is a grandson of General .Joseph Lane, first territorial governor and first United States senator from Oregon. General Lane won laurels in the Mexican war and was appointed by President Polk to organize the ter ritory of Oregon. lie arrived at Oregon City, where the provisional government was located on March 3, 1S49, and at once proclaimed the territorial government, thus achieving on the last day o Polk's term, his ambition of making Oregon a part of the General Lane suppressed the Indian outbreaks in the Uoguc river valley and elsewhere in Oregon, and it was largely through his efforts that Oregon was admitted as a state in 1859, when he was elected its first senator. Lane county is named in his honor. Dr. Ham- Lane is not a politician, but a practicing physician, lie was appointed superintendent of the state insane asylum by Governor Chamberlain and reorganized that institution, refusing reappointment. Later he was twice elected by republican votes as mayor of Portland, defeating the late George IT. Williams in one campaign. He declined to be a candidate for renomination at the expiration of his term in 1909 and resumed the practice of medicine. Dr.' Lane has a pleasant personality, makes a good speech and is a pronounced progressive. His honesty and ability are unquestioned and he will be a most formidable candidate for the senatorship, because of his superior i'it ness for the place over his opponent. CREW EJECTED OWNER. (Continued from Page 1.) in a bhawl. I did not see him until the lasl minute." To Block Inquiry. Openly, charging thut nit attempt had been made to .-hape the course of the inquiry of the United States hen ate subcommittee into the wreck of the liner Titanic nnd declaring that huch "interference" would no longer be tolerated, Chuinnan Smith is.tiied a cuubtic htatement today, believed w bo aimed at J; Bruce Ismay, miiiiug ing director of the White Star line, when the probe into the disaster wus resumed here. Senator Smith exonerated the offi cers and crew of the Titanic from be ing implicated in the alleged attempt to block a full expose of the circiim htauces Hiirrouiidiug the shipwreck and vcilcdly hinted that he had refer ence to Ibinay. After making his statement, Smith refused to call Ismay to the stand, calling instead Fifth Officer Lowe of the Titanic. J'h-ctl at ItallaiiK. Lowe declared that he transferred fifty persons from his boat to others and saved 20 men and u woman from sinking when a collapsible boat wus pieiced by wreckage. He left three bodies lying in the collapsible boat, explaining "we were there to save lives not bodies." "When the boat in which I escaped was lowered," said Lowe, "I felt no more persoiib should he allowed to enter. As I passed the open decks I saw a lot of Italians on the ship's rail swearing, 1 yelled: " 'Lookout,' mid fired a revolver into the uir to frighten them so they would not try to jump aboard. I did not intend to hurt anyone," JH'utlt Agony of Croud, "Then I returned to the scene of tho wreck and found; four persons flpnting in tho water. Ono of these was u irnui immed Iloyt of New York. of those udly inor- into the merits of the case so Vriundly had a right to bring at all, his vote was greater United States. He was n giant in size and it re quired the efforts of all the men on the boat to pull him aboard. He wan bleeding from the mouth and nose. We ojiened his shirt and gaue him a chance to breathe, but he died soon. "I did not see the body of a single woman in the water at daybreak. I think therurwas a woman in my boat named Mrs. Harris. I laid off until the drowning people had quieted down and then went to where the Ti tanic had gono down. I made the at tempt iK soon as I could. Jf anyone had struggled out of tho mass of wreckage wo would havo taken them aboard, but it would have been sui cide to go into that struggling crowd of drowning people." And Bruce Isuuiy Wept. Sworn testimony that J. Bruce Is may broke down nud wept nud an nounced that he was sorry that h" had not gone down with the Titanic was given to the investigating com mittee this afternoon by Second Offi cer Lightoller. He said that Is may was u nervous wreck when taken aboard the Carpathia and repeated over and over again: "I should have gone down with the ship." Secret protest against testifying before the senate Titanic committee investigating the disaster was made this afternoon to the British embassy by u delegation of the Titanic's crew. They appealed to Ambassador Bryce ugnnifit the "indignity of being do tinned." It is reported that J. Bruce Ismay, managing director of the White Star lino and Vice President I A. S, Franklin will go to the em bassy tonight and present their griev ances. To thwart these plans Cliair man Smith plans to hear as ninny of the witnesses us possible and it night session tonight is contemplated. KBISCOIVILIA.NS TO OBHIJIIVI-; ST.
