Ilartlett residence, slje noted that the kitchen door wn open. Litter; she heard n nohc in one of the room down flairs. Trembtiiijr, hut with true, qonniftc, she ndvnuced to the henil of the .Ioim nml called in as inupji of n man's voico n she could iptnier, "("tome, forth, ymi thief, come forth." There was n, moment's s5 lepco nnd Ihen n fearful rah ami several muttered exclamation. 'Corac forth you thief, come forth." rcjenicd tho brave woman ami a slim and frightened man came to icw. lie unvn one look at tho woman, emit ted a heavy Rasp, and said, "Gee, I'm plad you'm only n woman and thnt oti Imcn'l a gun." It wn the giis man who had been forced to craul under (he kitchen table to read the meter. At the first "Conic forth" he fell over and pulled the tabic and an assortment of dMies and pans down oxer bU ears. He nays he was never n frightened in his life and the woman says she feels the same way. The other day ono Medford family lost a cow and the new columns told how the eannv animal had un locked the bam door and climbed a fence to get away. Thinking the cow wns stolen (ho fazsily riotifScd the police and instituted search pro ceedings throughout th6 county. Theroiwcro 110 results. The next noon tho cow stuck its head in the ront door and let loose one long and gladsome "moo." "It is sy J that ljn wife in the family wept with joy and the, husband embraced bossy's neck. The milkman got order to quit leav ing bbltlea on tho back stoop for bossy in on I ho job iigain. 'Tolher day a wont and ragged man. with a flue cmpc under his arm, stopped, me on thj street "Can 1 a?lr you a question? ' he .111ari1.1l.

The rqilrotuhvcoiiinlnhi that it will kill industry by fore intr (hem (o chnrjro higher rates. At the same timo they (hum that it will bankrupt them. This is a Hiunpln of the specious arguments being made against the measure. If tho'bill increases freight rates, why should the rail rpftds fight it? It it lowers'them, whyshould (he shipporrt fight it f A4 a matter of truth, (he bill accepts as a base, tho, first class rates established by tho railroad com mission last Jjtnuary, and establishes a new ratio which increases the spread between carload and less than carload shipments. Tho less than carload shinments are left about as they are, but the carload rates are re duced. The bill does not, as the railroad pretends to believe, interfere with commodity rates any more than the sched ule established by the railroad commission does. The new rates nre maximum rates, just as tho old rates were, and the railroad can make special rates as much lowi'r as desired, but not ineroaso tliem. This is a principle recog nized by the interstate commerce commission, and whicli eoverns all rate making. Tho hue and cry against tho bill is inspired by the Port land jobbers who would prevent tho development of dis tributing editors to cinch their monopoly as the one dis tributimr point in the state and throttle all other natural renters. a policy that dwarfs the development of Oregon and eventually reacts upon the metropolis. The real complaint against the new rato law is that it gives every locality a smiare deal by ending the discrim ination against them all in favor of Portland. BOXERS 10 ENTER IHEIR TO ON I M MONDA Y LYNCHINGr THE KNOCKER. TD signalize the era of harmony about to be inaugurat ed between all sections of the valley and the death of potty discord, enmity and strife, the Medford Commercial club will on the evening of Friday, December 27, "lynch Hie knocker and burn the hammer," on the public square near the library building. A dummy 'figure representing the knocker will be chained to the stake in the center of a huge boufire, after beitig paraded through the. streets and while the band plays and the fire cracks, Ashland, Grants Pass and other towns will add fuel to the flames by throwing in their hammers, while orators pronounce the funeral. orations. After the ceremonies, the club members and their guests will partake of a light banquet at the hotel Medford, tickets for which are now on sale at the Commercial club building at HO cents apiece. It is planned to make the occasion the biggest get- together altair ever undertaken in the valley and the hearty co-operation of the entire valley is requested. NEW YEAR'S ISSUE.

KLUM. THE Mail Tribune is preparing data and statistics for its. annual Xcw Year's issue, so that tho world may know ot the material progress and prosperity of the Kogue river valley. The size of the paper and tho number issuc.d will de pend entirely upon tho support accorded by the public. It deserves a liberal patronage, for the Now Year's issue is a most creditable publication and superior to that printed in any city in Oregon, outside the metropolis. Quality, rather than quantity, is the controlling idea of the publishers not a waste of white paper but concise and accurate statements of conditions with as many illus trations as possible. Too Jarge a paper would destroy its eficctiveness. As no publicity pamphlet, has been issued for six mouths and as none will be for as many more months, the New Year's Mail Tribune offei-s the only available medium of publicity for exploiting the valley. The hearty co-operation of the entire valley is request ed in making'the issue a success.
