FORMJBR SENATOR JONA'JntAU ROlMikM Jr., who
is devoting his time ns chairman of tho joint sonuto and
honso oonmiittoo to dovising Ways nnd moans for fedoral
aid to good roads has formulated a iniu'tienl working plan
for the financing and const met ion of a system of national
highways. It contemplates tho authorization and sale hy
popular subscription "upon a pro rata allotment basis of
fifty year three per cent bond o tho amount of $3,000,000
000. The monov is to be expended under the supervision of
the state highway commission, co-operating with the
United States highway commission, the allotment for each
state to be in proportion to its population, area, assessed
valuation and total mileage of public highways. The
state issues 4 per cent 50 year bonds which aru deposited
with the federal treasurer, whereupon the United States
hicrhwav bonds to the amount, of nvoitcV applied for, tire
sold and the proceeds turned over to tho state.
.Three fourths of the interest payments mado by tho
state are used to pay interest on tho federal bonds, and one
fourth deposited intho treasury as a sinking fund. At the
time of matiiritv of the bonds deposited by tho state, the
treasurer of tho United States cancels and returns them
to states issuing them, without requiring any payment of
principal. Two per cent oL tiie amount ot state oonus de
posited is nninmlly paid the state by the United States for
maintainance of highways so constructed.
Under the plrin, Oregon would receive $16,000,000,
though a constitutional amendment would oe necessary to
permit the. issuance. Speaking of his plan, dotails of which
will bo fjuriiishcd upon application, Senator Rourne says:
The 'adoption bf this comprehensive 'plan Insures an opportunity, ex
teudliiK qyoria period ot fifty yenrs, for, tho expenditure ot threo billions
or dollars tn iinproement and maintenance of wagon roads In tho United
Stntcs, thus giving useful employment to many people and providing ayate
matte nnd Intelligent highway construction, resulting In tho United Stated
aecurlng what would probably bo tits best and most oxtunnlvo system ot
highways In tho world and Increasing our national wealth many, ninny
times tho amount of tho Investment.
Arcuiucnts in its favor he summarizes as follows, as
serting that good roads is the greatest neonomie problem
before- the' cdunfry: ' , '
It will add a hundred billions to the national wealth.
It will more than double the value of American farms.
It will save a billion dollars annually to farmers and
country residents by cheapening travel and transportation.
n "m'i f ?i. I -i! i ' inn nnn . ...1.. :..
it will lunusii occupation tor over iuu,uuu iiuuihu m
road maintainance and make country life attractive and
remunerative.
County bonds will do in the same proportion for Jack
son county what the Bourne plan will do for the nation a3
a whole.
CALIPKS p IBS DUE
TO LACK OF NEEDED IRRIGATION
THE HEAVYWEIGHT SLUGGERS.
IV today a hitherto unnoticed Medford youth were to up
root one of the city's concrete drinking fountains with
One sweep of his arm", tomorrow would hail him as a com
ing heavyweight champion. It is this dependence upon
brute strength, while skill is ignored, that makes probable
sitch affairs as that at Calgary when unskilled Luther
AfcCarty went down for the final count before an equally
unskilled opponent.

The pr-ze fignt game, its dcicndcrs say, claims iewcr
victims than any otlier sport, but it lias not necn possioio
until recently for the untrained, inexperienced giant to
enter the ring. If the promoters would postpone the day
when tho sport will bo prohibited they will cease staging
tncisc ircaic contests ot -pnysicai gianis. xn my jjh-m-iu
crop of heavyweights thero is not a man, unless it be Jack
Johnson, who has earned the right to be a drawing card.
Thrir exhibitions arc as far from boxing as is the alley
fight and are more dangerous, for the man in the alley may
always turn and run. The public, attracted by clever
press agent rot, is victimized at the box office the heavy
weight "game" has degenerated to its lowest depth.

UMBLE
PORTLAND, Ore., May 27. Ah a
result of tho touring into the local
murkct of great herds of California,
Montana, Utah, Idaho and local cat
tle, caused by the importation of
fresh beef from Australia by Califor
nia interests, there was n' very se
vere (.lump of values of livestock ut
North Portland yards today.
During the lust twenty-iour hours
T tho Kdltor. Slneo leaving
Medford a month ago I hnvo had .
cntdon to visit a largo portion of Cali
fornia, where I hnvo clooly obsurvod
thu agricultural nnd financial condi
tions. It has never been my prno
tlco to boost by knocking tho othor
place, hut will (tescrlho conditions
seen In my visit to sunny California,
so our neighbors hero can begin to
appreciate tho many hlesslucs be
stowed by mUuro on tho lloguo ltlver
valley.
With tho exception ot Santa Rosa
and tho surrounding portion ot So-
nomn county tho whole ot coutrat
California from rrcsuo to Marys
vlllo Is bnkod brown. Thoy hnd very
little rain lust year nnd scarcely a
sprinkle this year so that now the
effect of tho drouth Is terrible und
oven deep wells arc nearly dry. Tho
grass and grain hay with few ex
ceptions did not grow n foot high
this year nnd tho whole nonlrrlgat-
ed hay crop Is a cumplotn falluro
Cattle on tho rauxos are dlug both
for lack of feed nnd water. Hay Is
very high and cnttlo and horses can
bo bought for a song. This will
drive thn buyers Into thin cotinh-y
for hay and dairy products.
Many n man who In tho past has
been prone to Josh us about our
web feet has asked to sec our book-
lot, nnd I hnvo received m.iny Inquir
ies ns to tho conditions and prices
of land hero. Tho blow socin to
hnvo fallen tho hardest upon thu
small farmer nnd thu cnttlo man so
most of tho Inquiries arc for low
priced laud, and doubtless many will
come hero In the licit r future for audi
lauds. Let's hope that when thuy do
como that somo ot'ottr blessed knock
era will trade lands with them.
Calltornlnns are now being tntigut

In the regions similar to this whore
they usually hnvo enough rain. They
aro bound to havo much suffering
ami want thero this your nnd It Is
to bo hoped that our ranchers will
profit by their lesson nnd not wait
until wo aro absolutely driven to -It
hern by tho same hard reason. Tho
advantages of Irrigation nro very np-
pnrcni there now and those who niv
so fortunate ns to be equipped wl'h

tholr Und looks llko an oases In a
desort
The principal source of money In
California at present Is tho totirUt
and the newcomer. Tho lattor nro
now beginning to seo tho deplorablo
conditions there and aro ready with
a llttlo persuasion to como this wnyj
to mako their homos where they can
bo sure or unfailing and bountiful

To secttro these people an settlors wot then replace ArKUeB4lCjmln

weakness and diiiiKi'r, they will Join

In splto ot tho vast stiperloilty of
