Apples Itarrcllcd stock during

forward, with the exception of the
cargo of Xova Scotian fruit ex
s. ft ' Shenandoah, sonic small por

time for FridayV auctions.
Hosed apples continue to arrive
freely, about 32,000 hnvini come
fonvnrd during the week. The price
for Oregon Xewtowns remain
steady nt from 9s to 10s for the
large fruit mid up to 33s 0d for the
medium and smaller sized fruit.
While we do not anticipate an ad
vance on these figures for the pres

arc coming forwnrd, wo think the
market will maintain its level.

from 12s to 33s per eae, und we

neither carries the usual

metropolis as iturini; recent years.
One thing, however, forcibly impresses the interested
observer scanning these metropolitan annuals ami that
is that the principal industry in Portland is building sky
scrapers. How these skyscrapers are to be kept tenanted
we are not informed. Nine-tenths of the annual's space
is taken up exploiting the greatness of Portland- and the
one-tenth balance is "devoted to Oregon, which must sup
port tho overgrown iuctroolis.
The Oregonian trumpets abroad that $0,000,000 have
boon invested in Portland skyscrapers during the past
four years. Ton millions more have been expended in
street railway extensions. .But the Oregonian does not
enlighten the world as to how much Portland capital has
been expended in developing Oregon or how many mil
lions have been invested by Portland in building railroads
over the state because there have been ho such expendi
tures at id no such investments.
Portland could have got along vorv well with l().000.
000 of new skyscrapers. I f the other .f 10.000.000 had been
invested in railroads, the state, would now be grid ironed
with them, its development stimulated as if by magic, its
population noarlv doubled and there would be the re
sources and wealth essential to support such a city as
.Portland ami the metropolis would not be hieing depres
sion due to overbuilding and inflation.
Portland has ever been the child of fortune. It has
grown almost without effort on its own part forced by
geographical advantages. Its eyes have ever been upon
itself. It has strangled the development of the state by
discriminatory freight rates to build up a large center
without much body to feed it. Its state development work
consisted in expending a few hundred dollars a year in
advertising Oregon instead of financing construction
enterprises- outside its own limits. Little of the capital
for the railroad lines, electric systems or small town build
ing has been contributed by Portland,

go systematically at work
backwards industnallv and
now two-fifths of the state's population and nearly the
same amount of its wealth. What is going to sustain it 7
The time is at hand when Portland must justity its size
by financing the industrial development of Oregon not
by an ad in the Saturday Evening Post, but by money
actually spent in development enterprises.
Some eight or ten inches of the Oregonian annual are
devoted to Jackson county perhaps a few more inches
in the Journal not enough to do this section any good
or any harm. This community is therefore left by the
metropolis, along with all other communities outside tho
Portland limits, to advertise
and it was a realization of
Alan Tribune to print and the merchants to liberally pat
ronize a .Medford annual.
"The Lord lielns them that help themselves," and
Medford shouts loud enough to bo heard, anyway.
The most an annual can do is to attract attention to
the locality. This is best done by pictures. Few persons
read long articles in annuals. Wherever possible, pictures
with brief legends telling the story should supplant them
and this has been the idea governing the make-up of
the Mail Tribune's Now Year Issue.
On account of lack of space, many of the articles pre
pared for the New Year's issue of the Mail Tribune were
crowded out. Others had to
engravings intended tor use were omitted. Hie paper,
originally planned for thirty-two pages, expanded into
thirty-eight pages, and had time permitted, could have
been made still larger.
Those articles omitted will be published in this and

and while here Pert told us of bis
experience with two young panthers.
Ho said that he was out riding af
ter his stock and bad a shepherd,
pup with him, and he beard the pu.i
while mid soon heard it cry as if
in trouble, so riding in he found that
there were two young panthers had
tackled him. so ns iiick as thought
ho rode into the hunch mid knocked
one of them loose from I lie pup, and
it ran up a tree, am: tho dog fin
ally killed tho other, and there he
was with a panther treed and no
gun, mid it three miles to Jhe near
est house where he could gel a gun,
so he pulled off hjs coat, put it on
a polo and placed it on llie side of
the tree mid started post haste for
u gun and reaching Mr. Hollcnbeak,
found that he had only a 20-20, mid
only two loads for it, but he started
for his panther and found him where
he had left him up the tree, arid
with one shot brought him to the
ground. About this time he began
to think that probably the old
mother panther might be elo-e
around, so he started on a hunt for
dogs that would track her up, ami
finally after two days Lucius Km
caid mummed to kill her about a
mile from where Pert had killed the
two young ones.
Mr. McDonald or Trail, one of
tho brothers who bought out the
Johnson brothers, called for tin
night Tuesday, and Wednesday look
tlm train for Medford. And the
same evening Miss Klsie Wright, the
primary teacher in the Unite Falls
school, came out on business und
remained with uh until Thursduy
morning, taking the train for home.
