CCXMMEN'IHNG upon tho effort of iho aioddml city council to strike at the newspapers, with a special election to cut down the number of publications of assess ment notices, the Ashland Tidings, perhaps the mtm bit ter critic of the Medford newspapers, says: "The city council of Medford is busily engaged in an attempt to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. "The newspapers ol Medtord have done more toward the development of that town than any other ten agencies. Both tluvPribune and Sun, from a newspaper standpoint, are far ahead of what the patronage justifies. Few towns in the United States with like population and resources have as good newspapers as Medford. "A town may be best judged by the newspapers it supports. If the newspapers bear a weak and pinched aspect it will reflect back upon the town and people will not think much of a community whose business enter prise will not support substantial newspapers. "The state law provides for certain legal publications and sets the maximum price for the publication, just as - i 1 1 n I ! nit i it sets rue salaries tor county aim city otheers. it is understood by everybody that certain public offices carry a certain salary by law. Nobody ever complains about that. But there are always a certain type of politician that has it in for the newspapers because they are unable to dictate to them, who insist, when there is retrenchment to be made in municipal expense, that the newspapers be made the butt of their economy. That is exactlv what is now happening at Medford. "The less publicity on opportunity for graft. Just how far that enters into the action of the Medford council we do not know." In this connection it may be well to set the public right regarding the printing involved. No ordinance or resolution has ever been printed more than once, except those ordinances assessing the cost of paving, water mains and sewers, laid under the .Bancroft bonding act, and as each street can be so improved but once, and as most of the city streets have already been so improved, the total amount involved is small probably not enough to pay for the special election. A small portion of the council s proceedings are printed, and since the present council took office its only economy has been at the expense of the newospapeis, res olutions of paving, etc., being posted on telegraph poles as in village days before the era of newspapers. Only ordinances, compelled by charter provisions, see the light of day in printer's ink. As. a matter of fact, all public transactions should be printed. The publication of the minutes of every council meeting, together with the list of bills paid, and new laws enacted, should be compulsory at a fixed maximum rate, as it is fixed by state law for county government, for what is the public business is everybody's business, and the only way the public has of learning what its servants do is through the newspaper. Publicity is the remedy for both private and public corporate abuse. NEWSPAPERS ORTCGON, overwhelmingly progressive, rewarded pro gressiveness in her public officials by kicking her foremost progressive, Jonathan .Bourne, .Jr., out of the senate. The old political machine, with the avowed intention of "smashing" the Oregon system, massed its strength against Bourne, and aided by Selling's money barrel, ac complished his defeat. The people were not so much to blame as the unpro gressive press. Bourne made an idealistic campaign, a campaign ahead of his time, the campaign of the future, lived within the corrupt xmictices act and let his record speak for itself. For veal's Bourne has been maligned, villified. be littled and abused by the Oregonian and the stand-pat papers of the state, who refused to give him credit for his achievements and by calumnies succeeded in poisoning the public mind against him. Tn the primary campaign none of the great news papers, the newspapers of but four places gave Bourne a square deal, and he carried the four counties in which they were located Multnomah, Tillamook, Ourry and Jackson, showing that if the facts had been presented to them the progressive people would have voted for Bourne. Colorless lethargy is the tone of the country press of Oregon. Some of the papers were angry because Bourne did not purchase their aid, as he did six years ago, and as Selling did this year. Some are too factionally partisan to give an opponent a square deal. Some never have an opinion unless it is paid for. Bourne was defeated, but his work still lives. The Oregon system is stronger than ever. The presidential primary is sweeping the nation. .Probably no one has con tributed more to change the current of political events than Jonathan Bourne.
