JihoTiirboll .started it, by her exposures. Tom Lawson shoved it nloncr with Frenzied Finnnoo. Toddy boosted it by labeling it, a bad trust the only one to bo prosecuted. So that nowadays Standard Oil is a oloak to hide a multitude of sins. Perhaps Standard Oil is to blame for laok of gas in Medford two days this week. The Oregon Oas and lOloetrio eompany try to shift the. blame. Hut the ehanees are the gas company ordered an inferior grade of oil to experi ment with and see ifan economy could not be effected at public expense. It is inconceivable that a large consumer would purchase without stipulating tested oil of required standard either that or defective apparatus at the gas plant. The Standard Oil company has no franchise to supply gas to !Medford. 3ut this branch of the gas trust has, therefore the management of tho concern itself is at fault not tho Standard Oil company. nut the standard Oil conmanv is obtainimr monov un der false pretences in Mcdford by polling a cheap distillate as gasoline and demanding gasohile prices for it. The uenent ot trust management (rated. The price has been gallon in the past few months and a palmed off. It is remarkable, but nevertheless a fact, that the dis covery of oil in California, and the annual output of mil lions of barrels, has never cheapened tho price of kerosene in-jr.iMMiiu- in mi' iiurmwi'sc. uu was lormcriy transport ed from Ohio and Pennsylvania bv ail across the conti ncnt. Xow it runs in pipe rennery on title-water. Hows nas water transnortation. Tho monov formorlv lviid mil roads now goes into Standard Oil pockets as increased proms. The Standard Oil company is a fair example of the trusts increased cost to consumer, decreased cost to the producer ot raw material, m this case the independent oil producer and an adulterated, inferior product. Roose- clt would perpetuate by legalizing such monopoly. Wil son would destroy it by restoring competition by elimina tion ot tne special privileges monopoly. OREGON'S GRANDEST WOMAN. A LL Oregon joins in congratulating Mrs. Abigail Scott --JJuniway on tier seventy-eighth anniversary. Mrs. Duniway is original champion of equal suffrage in Oregon for half a century the undisputed leader in the cause. For many years, Mrs. Duniway stood almost alone. Defeat had no terrors for her, she never knew discourage ment. No sooner had one battle been lost, than she began plans for another. Mrs. Duniway has lived to sec her cause triumph in many states. She has lived to see it universally acknow ledged as a righteous one. Par in advance of her time, she has lived to sec the times catching up with her. The birth of every new idea, its growth and develop ment, is attended with as many pains, as many dangers, as many vicissitudes as a human life. Mrs. Duniway has guided the destinies of the new idea of the political equal ity of the sexes with all the solicitude of a parent. Her indomitable pluck, her untiring energy, her wonderful enthusiasm, has brought the new idea to the verge o victory in Oregon. All honor to Abigail Scott Duniwav, the grandest woman of Oregon. GET A SAMPLE BALLOT. Tf VERY voter should secure a sample of the ballot to be --'voted at the general election from the county clerk, study it, mark it as he intends to vote and take it to the polls with him. The ballot is long and confusing. In the haste at the polls, one is apt to vote for the wrong measures and iiguwsi me j-ignt one. With the voters pamphlet to study at home, the making of the ballot becomes an easy matter. The law is defective in that it dno nnf. niwiiin iv,,. voters being sent sample ballots as well as pamphlets. Individuals, can, however, remedy this bv sending to the county clerk for the ballots. The measures upon the ballot must be studied to be voted upon intelligently. That is what the Oregon system ,js lor to iorce people to become fit for self-government by study of public problems. Given proper study and there is no question but that the collective judgment rendered is far superior to that of the individual and less likely to bo iu' error Only Five Libel Suits in Jackson County in Fifty Years (From tho Valley Record, Ashland. J Tho friends of Frank L.

Each candldato was out looking after his fences In the coun ty and in this line of campaign, Mr. Dunn hud whatever advantago thoro was in an extensive personal ac- qualtanco aud tho experience ac quired in iioveral campaigns of the county. Hut Mr. Dunn's campaign managers could not seo tho cam paign go to Its vloso In a clean, sane manner. It grow IrkBomo. Several "strong arm" stunts were pulled off for the purpose of Influencing the voters In fuvor of Mr, Dunn. The effect of tho stunts Is problematical and Just who tho candidate is that Is to realize from these efforts is a matter of grave concern to eoino of Mr, Dunn's friends, who sincerely STANDARD OIL. and, monopoly are thus i raised from 121 to 2G ecu illus Mits a cheaper substitute lines from the oil fields to the by gravity into oilslnps and that make possible the bolievo in tho valuo of a fair cam palgn, and havo in tho past wit nessed tho folly of attempts at mov ing tho people an maaso hy publish ing tho people en masse hy publish any basis of truth that disclose the bald fact that tho author doesn't know what ho Is talking about. The Oklahoma editor announced that "No sooner was Ton Velio nomi nated than ho issued Htrlct orders" to his newspaper friends to keop rankling personalities out of hlu campaign, That "Tou Velio was u masterful politician and knows what hurts as well as does good" and that "Tou Vollo has proven hlmsoir an ahio dlpomatlst" In framing up his campaign at such a hlgji stand ard, Spilled III PmJhoii Tho mart' from Oklahoma had brought with him tho political dopo used by tho "strong arm" dopaters of that now Rtato famous for Its nasty battles over changing Btato capitals, removing county sent, oto., and ho saw his opportunity for m i 1 1 -lint: his poison on Jackson county cttlxt'iiK nllpilnn a way whim ho tils euvorod that Ton Velio hud mtuh Haheil niid tmforml a iltwnt cam paign Initwooii hlmxuir and Mr. Dunn, The editor could xtnmt It no lnmi'T and dnllltrnUly and without inovocatlon,! hcmtii hlu i'utiimnu or slander, viu Justifying tho hooch Rlly of tho assault for the ri'iison Ihnt Tou Vollo had boon Huocossful In luaiiitulnluit a high oIuhh cam paign. in two hours after ho road tho Oklahoma odltor'n criminal llhol von vornliiK himself Tou Vollo swore to a complaint that will compel tho edi tor to either prove bin nttsorttniiM or confess his intvhlltty to do so and es tablish htmmdf on tho record lis a wanton and Irresponsible xcrlbblor.

The Cost of Trial His reckless assailant complains that tho proceeding inaugurated placed the costs of tho trial on the tax payers, that tho proceeding should have been a civil action for damages.

Comparod to tho record of events in Jackson county this discloses a propensity for slund- erlng that simply goes beyond human belief and It arouses wonderment and surprise at a personality that boasts of such a vulgar record.
