All members nrc urged to attend, meet ing nt the depot at 0:10. The local committee urecs the pco plo of Medfonl to nit end thN meet ing. This town has often been ac cused of booptin" only for Med fori, nnd for whnt has- been called our sel fish interests. This is an opportun ity to demonstrate thnt the contrary is tme. All who have not purchased tiefc cls can secure them before train starts of the committee. Tho city council at its regular meeting last night decided to make Improvement! In the road to Sacred Heart hospital. Tho work will bo rushed to put It In shapo (or tho wlntnr weathor. Tbo council also decided to discon tinue tho practice of granting water rebates, and to charge tho rates provided by ordinance. Tho Mil of Hates brothers for a $12 rebato was refused, chiefly upon tbo ground of precedent. A conforenco will bo held noon with the California-Oregon Electric company to agree upon compliance with their franchise which provides for the payment of flvo per cent of tho earnings to tho city.

KNEUTZEN CLEARED BY JURY Mrs. Owney Knuetzon on trial In tho circuit court since Saturday, on a charge of mayhem, by which Mrs. l'hllo llllvens, was alleged to have sustained a broken arm was found not guilty by n Jury thU afternoon after two hours deliberations. Tho vordlct was a suprlso. Tho action grow out of a quarrel ovor an Irrigation ditch last Bummer. Uoth live in the Steamboat district, and It was alleged that Mr. Kuuct zon who is comparltlvoly young, throw Mrs. Ullvonu, who Is old and feublo, down, causing her to break her arm. Thoro was much contra diction In tho testimony. Tho case of It. Odlu charged with rape will bo called this afternoon. E CROWD ON MS A COUNCIL ITER REBATES ELECTION lection furnished u Tlll'j o - opinion to ho construed dent AN nson a administration State elections were hold and New doraov. All arc there heon any popular protest against tlio tariff hill or, any reaction duo to threatened nail tunes caused ly tlio now tariff, tho democratic tickets would have sjom dtn to defeat. Instead they wore victorious hy increased majorities. The defeat of Tammany gives almost universal satis faction. It is due principally to Sul'.er and indicates von plainly how tho people of New York regard the lat tor's impeachment. Whatever .Murphy's capacity as a grafter and oily hoss, ho was not equal to tho task of hossing t,,.o state, ("liven rope enough, he proceeded to hang himself. The adoption of the initiative, referendum, recall and direct' primary will smash Tammany just as it has every other political grafting machine. Tit Oregon a very light vote was polled. Laws much more important to tho people than tho election of any person to potty office wore at stake, yet -with tho personal element lacking, the people showed little interest in tho election. If anyone should he intorsted in higher educa tion, it should he tho public school teachers, yet. in Mdd ford not half a dozen took the trouble to vote, though tho schools wore closed. All tho reforondums sustained the legislature, except that on the sterilization bill defeated by appeals to silly sentimentalism. A hard campaign against tho bill was waged and none in its behalf, hence its defeat duo to misunderstanding a measure in advance of its time. The decisive vote in favor of tho university ought to end for all time the warfare waged on this meritorious institution. For the people of Oregon to have gone op record as opposed to higher the state a black eye in the the Oregon svstem Clatsop has joined Jackson county in building good roads, voting a $100,000 bond issue. lt is a remarkable fact that those two isolated counties should grasp at one the benefits to bo derived from good roads, while those counties in the center of population should reject thorn and tail to realize their benefits. Multnomah count v has shown its co-operation in building the Pacific highway by voting bonds for tin interstate bridge. The old wet and dry issue furnished considerable ex citement in various communities and resulted in a con siderable addition to dry territory. Salem, tho center of the hop industry, voted' dry, thus striking a blow at its principal resource. The entire "Willamette Valley, with the exception of Springfield, is now dry territory and hops are its principal crop. If it is wrong to sell lieer or drink it, it is equally wrong to grow it and that is what the Willamette valley does. To should iov prohibit the growing of hops for wo will never have prohibition that prohibits until the manufac ture ot liquor and the production ot its essentials is stopped and then some other vice will supplant it. The women of Salem are said to have voted drv, tho women of The Dalles wot thus maintaining the equilibrium. Canal to Appreciate Land Values We nre told thnt the Kuropenn steamship companies huve nlready booked for one way infcsiigc to the Pacific coast, following the opening f the i'nunmn cnnnl, some 'JOU.OOO peronn, now paying for their trnn portntion on the installment plan. This is astounding new. We inny confidently reckon that or every Kuroenii farm laborer or nrtisau who is paying for hi future pasmge by installments there U another who is hoarding his imsagc money in his own purse or who iuih il nlreadv laid by for the day when ho can take ship direct from his own jmrt to San Fruii'ci-en, Portland or SentfJe nt tho low rntes made nobble by the ciiiiaI iii'i-iiix.

So that it is Mife to sny thnt half n million ublo bodied men and women, used to work and to produce, will be added to the west's population within u ycHr fr up the time the now steamship ronte in opened to eommoree. Whatever other results it may have, it is certain that this s.imVm influx of population will enoimo.isly SMUGGLERS TOTPAY FINE OF $150,000 COI.OONi;, Nov. ."..
