NO EXHIBIT FROM OREGON MINES AI IT is with rogrot thai wo noto tho opposition of a pro gressive citizen lilce .1. S. Howard to the new charter. The opposition of the pessimists is expected, hut a cheerful old optimist like the father of .Medford ought to he wel coming any change that moans the progress of the city. Charter critics will do well to familiarize themselves with the present charter before assailing tho new charter. Jii nearly every instance features objected to in tho now charter are in still more drastic form in the present char i... i.. i i . ii i i , -. tec in ins cuiiiiimmcauttii puoiisneu touny, Air. Howard remarks: ' ,, All through tho Instrument are the finger marks of n rloh man's charter ami tho oppression of tho working num who Is trying to mnlntnln his humble home amongst us Is shown hy imposing a ton anil twelvo ior cent Interest on his deferred payments on city utilities. The treatment accorded the poor working man is very much more lenient in the now charter than in the present charter. Section SO of tho present eliarter gives the ma jority of the council the power to order an improvement and to assess the cost, notwithstanding any protests that may bo made by tho property owners. Se'etion SI of the new charter forbids the assessment on any part of the cost of any improvement on property benefited where a major ity of the property owners protest, excepting by the unani mous vote of all the members of the board. Xcw Sec. S4. Oonoorning the liquor regulation clause, Mr. Howard says: There Is it great bin nigger In tlio wood pile In that liquor provision In tho chat lor, so I will waiter that If tho proposed charter should be adopted, and a wet council elected for tl'IO, that the saloons will be licensed ugiil,u as now. The state prohibition amendment nullifies any city law not in conformity therewith. No matter what the city charter reads, no saloons will be licensed after January i, 1!)1(). Hut if it was. intended to violate the state law, the old charter would furnish a better excuse than the new, as it contains the clause granting the city liquor regulation, "irrespective of any general law of the state." Here is a comparison of the twe: SAN FRANCISCO FAIR 8ALKM, Jan. C S. 11. Vincent, ex aminer for tho corporation depart ment, Is advocating tho early Intro duction in tho legislature of an ap propriation hill to provide for an ndc quato exhibit of Oregon's mineral re sources at tho Panama Pacific expo sition. It Ih understood that no funds from tho S17".,000 appropriated hy tlu last legislature to provide for an adequate exhibit of Oregon's re sources at the exposition are avail able for a mineral exhibit, and that unions tho forthcoming legislature makes suitable provision for such an exhibit Oregon will not take her place among tho exhibits of other mining elates exhibiting at San Francisco. Xo Kxhlhlt Ptannrtl "I was aniaied when I learned re cently that Oregon would not be rep resented among tho other mining states at tho exposition," said Mr. Vincent- "Oregon Is destined to bo one of the great mining states of the Union. In a few years her fame will prcad the world over, and yet for tho falec of a comparltlvely small sum, hay $10,000. sho -will not have op portunity to show tho world what she can produce in minerals. Her gold, copper. Iron, silver, lend, coals, clajB and cement materials ought to be ade quately exhibited. Such an exhibi tion undoubtedly would prove one of tho greatest advertisements the state ever has had. "Vo want capital to co i no Into tho state to develop our mines, hut wo arc too short-sighted to provlda n small sum for tho ade quate display of our mineral re sources to the investors of tho world. "Oregon, two ears ago appropri ated $40,000 for a survey of tho minora! resources of the state, and tho commission -which has had charge of that important branch of tho re search work of the state has made a splendid beginning. Why spend 4)40,000 to roveal lo the world Ore gon's splendid resources, and at tho samo tlmo largely nullify tho work of tho commission hy failure to make nn exhibit at tho Panama Pacific ex position. . At 10.- KaihihIHoii "Oregon had a wonderful mineral exhibit at the Lewis & Clark exposi tion. I romembor it with n great deal of pride. I was nlmost a newcomer in Oregon at that time. I had oJ wiya takon nn intorest In California mines hut knew little of Oregon's mineral resources. What I saw at tho I.ewiB & Clark exposition amazed mo, and since that tlmo I have beon deoply interested In Oregon's mineral rouourccB. California Is spending n largo sum for nn exhibit of her min erals nt the Panama Pacific exposi tion, and bo Is Idaho. I have proper ties In Idaho and have furnlRhud eonio ore for exhibit nt San Kian-clm-o, I am interested In Oregon u to, hut Oregon has not sought Ham plo ores for an exhibit, 1 believe It Is not too Into for Oregon to bo well represented at San Kranclsco. I be lieve if Krcd Mollis of Ilakcr, who had chargo of tho exhibit at the Lewis & Clark exposition had $10,000 to spend for an exhibit at San Fran cisco, ho could get ono together with in a' few woegs, porhaps within a few- days, that would ho a great credit to the ttnto, mid I hope- some legis lator early In tho session will Intro duce hu appropriation bill to provide for biich exhibit,'! Charter Provided, how ever, that If the owners of u major- Illy in amount of the property subject to assessment for said improvement shall protest against the assessment of any portion of tho cost thereof on said property, tho board shall not or der snld Improvement to be mado and tho cost of any portion thereof to ho assessed on tho property especially benefited thereby, except by tho unan imous vote of all of the members of the board of directors. Present Charter Sec, SO. In the event that the not ice so given be for the Improvement of a street or n part thereof, tho council, after first hearing all pro tests against snld improvement, may. notwithstanding said protests, If It deems the Improvement of material benefit to tho city, proceed to ascer tain and determine the probable cost of making such Improvement, and as sess upon each lot or part thereof ad jacent to said Improvement Its pro portionate share of the cost of said improvement. Both the present charter and the new follow the state delinquent tax law. charging the usual penalty one per cent a month. The new charter, however, is much more lenient. "Under the present charter, sections So and 8(5 provide that if within ten days after notice of the assess ment is published the assessment is not paid, the council can order a warrant issued for the collection of the assess ment and direct the constable to sell the property and then to proceed according to the state, law as to delinquent taxes. Under the new charter, no sale eairbo made for six months and no costs are charged. The following is a com parison of the charters: Present Charter Xeiv Charter Sec. So.

Give the now charter a square deal not an unfair one. Analyze any and all of the criticisms. Coimmrc it, clause by clause, with the present charter. The advantage is all with the new charter a complete instrument, every I fu ture of which has been tried out in some other community and proven a success not a quilt work of patches and re pail's by special elections for ten veal's past, necessitated to malce the village into the city. The present charter was sufficient for the unpaved, unimproved town that adopted it. Hut the city has out grown it. Bedford is up-to-date in everything else; it should also be up-to-date in government. The new char ter will make it. Let us begin the' year aright by doing things.

" . p Which is the most lenient and best for the poor man? "Regarding the provision for acquiring city parks and public amusement grounds, if tho city grows, as we hope it will, such recreation grounds will be necessary some day, no matter what the charter reads. They cannot bo pur chased, however, without a bond issue, for which the con sent of tic people is essential under the new charter. Tho people under the present charter trust tho mayor to select city engineer, chief of police, street commissioner,, witer superintendent and other officials. II' the mayor can be trusted to name all these, why cannot the city man ager, under direction of the board? .Regarding the recall, Air. J toward says: The whole recall provision la a farce, an n recall Jttltlon to he effective must contain 35 per cent of the voters nnd not contain more than 20 per cent of the voters, so tho limits precisely restrictive to exactly an exact number, oven one defective name on me petition would nullify It, so in that way it would be Impossible, to get up a recall petition that would be acceptable. Let us see how this statement sqparos with the truth. Under the present charter there is no provision at all lor the exercising of the recall. It is an open question whether or not, if the matter were taken to the supreme court, a recall could be made effective against any officer of the city because the constitution, which is the only means laid down for exercising the recall, provides that the number of signers shall be - per cent of the vole cast for supreme justice. Inasmuch as the Bedford precincts contain part city and parr country, there is no possible way of determining how many voters inside the city did vote for supreme justice. Judge Jlanna, in tho case where it was attempted to recall Mr. Olwell, a member of the Medford city council, held that recall proceedings could not be maintained against a Bedford officer and is sued an injunction. The new charter removes all doubt on this subject by providing the machinery for recall. The statement that exactlv 27) per cent must sign the petition is simply untiire, The petitions must contain at least 2o per cent, but may contain as many more as those circulating the petition are able to secure. This is tho same provision which is con tained in the state constitution. Hero is the state constitution and the new charter pro vision compare the latter Avith Mr. Howard's assertiens: Xeiv Charter Sec. 141. Hocall Petition. -A pe tition, signed by qualified elcctorti of the city equal In numbor to at least twenty-five per cent of tho total number nt votes cast in said city In tho last preceding municipal election providing tho required number sha)l not excood twonty-fivo per cent of tho electors of said city voting for a jus tice of tho stato supremo court at tho last preceding election for such of ficer, shall bo filed with tho secre tary of tho city, demanding tho re call of said incumbent and the elec tion of a uuct-ctuipr thereto, Stato Constitution Art. II., Sec. 18. There may bo re quired, twenty-flvo por cent, but not more, of tlio number of electors who voted In IiIh district at the preceding election for tho Justice of the supreme court to file their petition demanding his recall by tho peoplo. To the Kditnr: Tho'tirst (insertion is fnlsrn the fact of it. The twenty-one eitixeits to ilni ft the eliarter were not up- pointed by the city ceuncil: they had nothing to do with it. l-'uttlienuoro, they hesitutetl thltillli several ses-siwiH- before they weie willing for tho city to incur the openo of pnhlili iug it nnd placing the stime on the election ballot.

The constitution of the United States declares nil men free uud equal, nnil I might add that one mn'n is us good us unother nnil many limes u d n sight belter. W'orkiiigincu, consider it well, and see how you like it. Another pioiMon is that the city mmiuger mid council may order any improvement, rcgiirdlesK of tho pro lost of the lopcrty owners, nnd n. scss tho cost of the siinio to the pi op crty. It is pi o villi (1 in Aitiele II that tho city council mnv ueqiiire by pur- chase or otheiwi-o real estate within or Milliout I lie cilv lor lurm or muuscment parks or other purposes without referring the kuiiio to n vote of the people. So they may liny liundrcd-iicre tract for golf link or n largo tract outside the ctly for n park and improve it with tenuis coiuts and fine auto reads: for joy rider, Xow, golfing is u nice, clean Hpoit, without hardly any objectionable features, nnd tennis a nice nnd desir able spoil for the voting people, and both nro comineiuliilili for those who can u fiord to spend their time thai way, hut what about the lingo inn joiity of our citizens who must put in nil tucir available linn to earn enough to feed nnd clothe themselves and thoir families. The city should first and nil time devote its energies lo establish such industries us will give employment to Ilioo who must have such to build their homes and main lain their families and let those who want umusements "iv for the acces Horics out of their unjiro money. VtU vnto eutorprisn has most generously provided largely for the amusements of the public in the shape of tho Nat- Jiitoiiiiiu nnd the I'ngo theater, The charter nroidcs that the city council may invest in mi ci ratio scheme that strikes their fancy at. the ex pense of lite city without even tofer- ring the smiic to the voters of the city, even to .10ll,000 or more -theie is u limit in the use of the city's credit. We d not charge that nny nnd eery cilv council will do those things, hut the door is wide open if they want to, uud such t bines havo been done before mid are likely to he done uguiii, so why nro wo not safe guarded The city manager is appointed by the oily council.' lie may or ma not be a resident or tnxpnyer of the city, lie may he imported from Portland or from the east.

Thcio is a great big nigger in the woodpile in that liquor provision in the charter, so I will wager that if the proposed charter should ho adopted and u wet council elected for 11)1(1, that the saloons will he licensed again, as now. Say, that election section is n dream or a wrciiuil The assertion has been mado (hut tho charter was wholly copied from the churters ol other cities.
