Columns in j!i (hue, or the oixi (un
ity for the securing of a half nullum

mering, liouenu Iothnrgyi the cii
Of Oiegoii, dominates the omnmigu
despite the efforts of the oumuutce.
Good attendance has marked the
meetings in tho country districts to
date, characterized by n calm indif
ference to future welfare. Tho atti
tude has been "let the other fellow
do it.''
There is no crystallized sentiment
throughout the valley against tlte
beet sugar proposition. It is agreed
that it would ho n valuable asset to
wards southern Oregon im-penly
but its newness apparently appalls,
and the traditional mosbbnok fear
that others will benefit most bv the
investment produces masterly slug
gishness. On several instances tho
committee has been greeted with the
query, "I will take a chance if my
neighbors will." The neighbors ad
vance with the same proiHition.
This afternoon the committuo will
hold n meeting at Willow Springs un
der the direction of D. W. Stone nnd
R. W. Eldon, nnd there are indica
tions that some signs of life will be
shown, many of the residents of that
section being acquainted with the
benefits derived from the cultivation
of sugar beets. Thursday afternoon
meetings will lie held in Central Point
and Talent, Friday in Phoenix nnd
Saturdny in this city.
About four week arc left within
which the committee can secure the
required acreage. J. W. Storoy, the
beet sugar soil expert, is accompany
ing the committee nu its trips, his ex
penses being paid by public-spirited
citizens. Illustrating the principle
upon which he operates is cited the
ense of an Eaglo Point landowner
who of fercd forty acres, but was told
that it would not be a paying invest
ment, owing to the nature of the soil.
Tho beet sugar interests asks no
bonus, and offer a contract us sim
pic as the Ten Commandments, with
out bewildering legal phrases.
CHARITY BALL PROVES
MOST SUCCESSFUL
Tho Charity Dall given at the Nata
torlum Tuesday night under the au
spices of the Associated Charities and
Greater Medford club was the best
attended society event of tho season,
over 500 couples being present.
Many striking gowns wero worn by
tho women, and all the lato and pop
ular dances and many of tho olden'
times were danced. Card tables
wero filled with players. Tho ball
netted a neat sum for charltablo work
in the city.

PRINTER'S KIN WAS
SUICIDE VICTIM
A traveling printer by the natno
of i. D. Stone upicarcd In the com
posing rooms of tho Morning Sun
Tuesday night, and spying a story of
a Stockton woman who committed sul
clde as a finale to nn affinity affair
with a preacher, began to weep and
wall saying the dead woman was his
sister. He toro up the story, and ex
cited so much suspicion that the
police took him in charge. Ho was
turned loose this morning.
Stono was registered at tho Suattlo
lodging house as J. D. Stone, but let
ters found In his coat Indlcnto his
name Is J. D. Storcr. Ho admitted
to tho police that tho latter was his
name. '
Tho printer's talo struck a sym;
pathetic chord and ho was given a
meal and a place to sleep. Old print

spoKo oniay ueioro mo nuuonoi con
volition of tho lnterCollogla(o Prohl.
billon Association, ' .
' The proposition, that national
prohibition Is contrary to tho letter
and spirit of our government sounds
like tho slavery arguments )eari
ago, ho imiu. "Human rignta and
tho welfare of humanity must bo
given preference In nettling all moral
questions. States rights was tho
only excuse offered against giving tho
negroes their freedom. States rights
at that timo was tho stumbling block
that prevented tho recognition of tho
rights of man nnd added years of un
told nurferlug and servitude to human
beings."
Governor Hodges pointed out that
tho only objection offered to prohi
bition Is that It does not prohibit nnd
that this argument Is advanced by
the liquor Interests.
"No Intelligent person defends tho
saloon upon moral grounds," ho con
tinued. "A Baloon license Is the
most expenstvo revontio a state can
collect. Formerly liquor In Kansas
caused taxpayers to pay out morn
money for costs than all tho costs
paid In tho conviction of thieves,
highwaymen and murderers com
bined. Whiskey Is a political lia
bility a paraslto on business."

ALONGSIDE FRENCH
SAIXT POL, Franco, via Paris,
December 30. German prisoners of
war work cheerily nt the sido of their
armed French guards in repairing the
much damaged national highways in
this region, just to tho rear of the
colossal battle front. The prisoners
arc on the bent tonus with their cap
tors, who good-naturedly share cig
arettes, whiffs from their pipes nnd
other luxuries with their erstwhile
foes.
The prisoners remain only a Hbort
time in this neighborhood. As boon
as a sufficient number is taken to fill
u train, the captives are dispatched
to so'iau town on the coast or in the
interior, or embarked for Algeria.
In this region there lias been much
activity from morning to night on no-
count of (ho passage of great supply
convoys, interspersed with columns
of troops proceeding gaily to (ho
front to take their tunis in the
trendies.
Medford with 10-mill special school

crease 2 mills; Hold Hill with VI

''..') mills, and Talent with i.fi mills,
nn increase of '2.5 mills.
Those who protest the increased
school tax do so, not against the
principle of assessing the county in
stead of the district, but because the
districts have not reduced thuir lev-
its as promised, nnd the effect is in
creased taxation for Medford nnd
other Inrue districts.
