Kansfu City Journal,
r
llti OUHUONLAiN is in a olnss by itsoil among
emit journnls oC tho country in that it totally lacks
wit, poise and dignity. Any little country newspaper can
bv merited criticism, make it Flop senselessly around like a
chicken with its head chopped off, squawking tho same
sort of a death rattle as the dying old hen.
This fat-headed, humorless, overgrown village oracle
made one of its characteristic replies, in which viciousnoss
replaces wit, to the Mail Tribune's protest, against the pro
posed referendum on tho Vawter bill, which authorizes the
use of 20 per cent of tho state highway fund for the com
pletion of the Siskiyou highway, on which Jackson county
has already spent some $200,000. Tho Ofegoniau con
cludes by saying:
Neither Multnomah, nor Clatsop, nor Columbia, nor Hood ltlver, whero
actlvo road work has been done, was similarly favored.
It would appear that tho legislature hnd given Jackson County a "square
deal," and had not dented co-operation, nor swung tho hammer.
It was charged that the use of the referendum would
not bo a square deal, as it would no't be. Jackson county
has spent more on its roads than any other county, in pro
portion to its resources, and deserves assistance from the
state more than any other county for doing the state's
work. Its bond issue for a state road was greater than in
any other county. But the Orcgoniau, instead of attacking
the proposed referendum, attacks Jackson county for ask
ing a sum totalling i?-lo,000 a yenr irom the lugtiway num.
"Neither Multnomah, nor Clatsop, nor Columbia, nor
Hood River, where active roall work has been done, was
similarlv favored savs tho Orcironian. Yet the state
i ..w rrf
highway board has authorized the expenditure oi u.uvn;
in Douglas county, which voted no bonds. $50,000 in Hood
River, which voted onlv $75,000 in bonds, instead of
'" '"
"TRIANGLE LOVE" OF SCULPTRESS LEADS TO INSANITY COURT
$500,000, and the state
hijdiwav
engineer has recom
mended $60,000 for Columbia county and ?-10,000 tor Clat-
son county, and $20,000 for scattered bridge work, which
will undoubtedly be allowed, and we hear no talk of ob
structive tactics this talk is reserved to Hamper soutnern
fii-nrrrm
Is for Multnomah, the richest county in Oregon, is
not the state paying the interest on the $1.2o0,0tK) bonds
voted to build the bri(lgeacross the Columbia'? The bonds
are to run for thirtv years, draw interest at 5 per cent,
$62,500 a year, or a total of $1,875,000, paid by the state
as against $45,000 paid Jackson county a year for two
years, or perliaps tour, aim are not rue ois.Kiyous as nuicii
of a natural obstacle to overcome to secure entrance to
Oregon as the Columbia?
Jackson county finds no fault with the pitiful assist
ance given other counties by the state. It should be ten
fold, but the Jackson county delegation was almost alone
in its advocacy of a larger state fund at the legislature to
render it possible. There is very little good roads senti
ment in Oregon none in the "Willamette valley, thanks
largely to the Orcgoniau.
The Orcgoniau is urging a large bond issue for the pav
ing of highways in Multnomah count'. It needs it. It
should be voted. But why doesn't the Orcgoniau advocate
a stato bond issue to build the main state highways, fol
lowing tho example of California and other progressive
states?
Every argument the Orcgoniau advances for a county
bond issue applies with much more force to a state bond
issue. The counties are poor and highly taxed. It is out
of the question to pave the main state roads by direct tax
ation ust as it is out of the question to pave a city by sim
ilar means. The burden should not be shoved on the coun
ties, but borne by the entire state.
The state should use its credit for highway work. The
present quarter mill levy would meet the annual interest
on $5,000,000 worth of highways, be no more burdensome
to the taxpayer, but aid materially in upbuilding the stato
by enabling the people to realize the advantages at once.
Why does not the Orcgoniau and other Portland papers
recognize the situation and start a campaign to place. Ore
gon along with her sister states in the van of progress by
advocating state bonds for state highways instead of forc
ing tho individual counties to bear the entire burden?
Why keep Oregon eternally lagging in tho profession of
progress?

BAR BIBLE READING

NEW ORLEANS, .Mar. 23. Read
ing of tho DIblo and recitation of
tho Lord's prayor at tho opening of
public schools In Caddo parish Is
prohibited under a decision of tho
supremo court of Louisiana, announc
ed today. Laymen who studied the
complicated caso thought tho decis
ion might ho construed to allow tho
reading of tho Old, but not tho New
Testament.
Tho complaints woro of the Catli-
ollc and Jewish beliefs and argumonts
before tho court havo heen hased
almost entirely upon rollgolus tluwH.
Tho court held that the plea or the
Catholic complainants "that tho read
ing of tho Dlble would ho contrary
to tho dictates of his conscience,"
was "no clear."

Voting Contest
Extraordinary
EXPLANATORY
The conditions of this contest arc absolutely different from any sim
ilar contest ever held In Medford. The whole plan for the securltifj
of Votes Is absolutely different. The management of this contest
have made the conditions, havlnn In mind the full protection of every
contestant. Contests held In Medford in the past have heen ar
ranged so the different methods for securing Votes have been
doubled, even trebled, the last few days, with the object of temptlmj
the contestants to invest money with the Idea of actually buying tho
prizes. In this contest tho management has reversed these condl
Ucns Instead of Increasing the number of votes given for the' solo
of coupons, it Is diminished, as Illustration. At tho beginning of the
contest for a. specified time, the sole of a certain amount of tickets
gives the contestant 1500 Votes; at the end of this period for a cer
tain lerUtli of time, 1000 votes; at the end of this period to the
conclusion of the contest, 500 votes. Briefly stated, this plan has
been arranged to protect all contestants. The management realizes
that a larger number of legitimate workers will produpo far greater
rcsdlts than two or three who are simply attempting to purchase the
prizes outright at the last moment. This plan has been used by this
company a very large number of times and with the greatest of suc
cess, the hard, steady, constant worker will undoubtedly win this
car. The conditions of the contest, briefly stated, are as follews:
Schedule of votes given with eacir dollar In admissions sold during
contest. Up to and including March ?7, 1500 votes will ho given
with each order sold. Up to and Including March 31, 1000 votes will
be given with each order sold. Up to and Including April 3, 500 votes
will he given With each order sold. Tho manament of the Page
Theater wants to announce that at no tlnio during tho contest will
there he any special Offers mado and the number of votes will never
be any larger. The following rules will also bo strictly enferced:
No soliciting In or around the theater, No votes oan ho trans
ferred to another contestant. Contestants selling tickets near the
titeater will he dropped from the list. Tlw contest will closo April 3
and will lie decided by three local Judges.
