up and refund the (lelincpient tax list, along the lines pro
posed under tho Mcdynski measure for Bedford, is meet
ing with great favor. Everybody will welcome the cash,
and if the measure reaches a vote, there is little doubt it
will earn.
That the proposed bond issue shtJuld be enlarged to do
for the entire county what the rebonding proposition is
calculated to do for .Med ford is the suggestion of an or-
chardist, who writes as lollews:
Your county bonding scheme Ih all right nn far ns It rock, but It docs
not do for tlm farmer what tho Mpdymikl plan docs tor the city lot owner.
Tnlie my own case, which Ik the enso or inan others. I bought hoiiic land
nnd inndo a part pnment, giving a mortgage for tho balance. I built u
bungalow nnd planted an orchard and mndo other Improvements, nnd for
flvo jonrn have taken excellent care of tho place. To do this I have had to
borrow monoy, as there in practically no Income from n young orchard,
and tho drouth has crippled farm operation)).
I.lko tho lot owner, I have made permanent Improvement)! which ben
efit tho county. The money borrowed Ih duo. I have no way to meet It.
Ih Jochflon county going to we me cleaned out after all 1 hnvo done?
Wh dooH not the county pome to my rccup by atotumlng my Indobtodtienn
and lot the entlie county pay It In future taxation?
Make tho bond Ikhuc largo enough to take care of nil the farmcrn' mort.
gagt'i. Don't rorce uh into imnimiptey ami urive us out or tito country.
The case is a parallel one "to that of the city home
owner, but not to the vacant lot owner, who bought as a
speculation and was caught, and who ha- made no use of
his proper! v and never intended to make tin v. Tho count v
s under ,iu.t as much obligation to act as wet nurse for
the orchardisl as Med foul is for the lot owner.
If the community is going into paternalism and assume
personal obligations and pay the debts of the lot speculat
ors as provided under the Medynski plan, tin re is much
more reason whv i! should assume the debts of hose useful
members of society who have made two blades of grass
grow where one grew before.
Lot us by all means bond both city and county for the
benefit of tliose hard up. Le! us prosper temporarily indi
vidually by the permanent bankruptcy of the community.
It shows our patriotism and high citizenship. Let us lax
ourselves rich. Let us lift ourselves into prosperity by
fugging1 at our boot-straps.
THE HOGGISH METROPOLIS
THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC! haendeavorod to tissisl
Ihe lumber industry of interior Oregon by making
rates for shorter hauls from the interior to California less
than the rate for the longer haul from Portland. This
commendable effort .on the railroad's part is meeting with
strenuous opposition on the pari of Portland, which litis
filed protest with the interstate commerce commission,
claiming that Portland's waterways entitle it to a lower
rate,
The result of this effort, if successful, will be the shut
ling down of numerous interior mills and the cheeking of
tho development of Oregon, in order to build up one city,
already too large for its territory.
It is the same shortsighted, pinhead policy that Port
land has always pursued the, throttling of Oregon for its
own selfish development. And Ihe result- of this policy is
that Oregon is Ihe least developed of Pacific coast states
and Portland over-built, with, according to an investiga
tion by the United States department of labor, the highest
percentage of unemployed men of any city in the United
States.
The federal investigation shows 2(1 per cent of Port
land wage-earners out of work, and 17..'. per cent working
pari of the time only. This is due directly to the lack of
development of the state, lade of industries in the state,
for which the Portland policy is responsible.
As long as Portland can ship cheaper than any othei
pari of Oregon, as long as Portland concerns combine to
maintain a monopoly, this condition will continue to exist
nnd Oregon remain undeveloped.
.lust what the affected regions think of Portland is
shown by the following dispatch in the Portland Oregon
ian: CAItlrOX, Ore., Oct. 21'.. There wan a lane ntloiuhtnro of merelinnla,
fanner and laboring men nt a maun nicotinic held hero tonight under the

Instead of going down the toboggan

plan Is adopted, nnd at property

taxeH go up, property will go down
ngain, and then taxes wilt go up some
more, and there you have It.
.Mr Felil says the paving will cost
no more under Mcdynskl's than ns
originally aBsesacd. lint he carefully
avoids any discussion of the self evi
dent fact that under Medynski, the
burden will be mostly lifted front the
vacant lots nnd placed 'on the backs
of the homo owners.
Thin Is probably a pretty ticklish
point with Mr. Fnhl for he and his
crowd, are by nil accounts, pretty ex
tensive owners of paved vacant lots
themselves.
And see how fnlr nnd truthful Mr.
Felil Ih In his personnl remarks about
any one else who bus the temerity
to point out tho enormity of the
Medynski schema, In the papers.
For Instance ho says I do not pny
my own paving assessments.
Now I have no paving frontage ex.
ccpt 104 feet on South Oakdnle. On
this I hnvo made thiee rull yearly
payments, principal and Interest, and
aftPr that paid the Interest for two
mote years, having paid, as tho rec
ords will show, $r,:i.'i In all. In fact,
tho present yenr Is tho rirst I have not
mndo out to pay something on my
paving. Yet the Just and truthful
Mr. Fchl would have you believe
that I, like mnny of tho chief boos
ters for tho Medynski plan, have paid
nothing at nl) on my paving.
Had not three disastrous fruit
years put mo o'n the blink, 1 would
not owe one dollar on my paving as
sessments today.
Knually misleading nnd unjust nro
.Mr. Fehl's assertions as to the Irriga
tion of my orchard In tho year I'JH,
Ho says I used the full flow of two
liydrunlH, ono itjn Holly street nnd
one on Oakdale that .oar. As a mat
ter of fad I did not use a diop of
vvnter from llollj street and never it
full flow at any time rrom Oakdnle.
I wax only pormlttod to uso tho vvntor
fiom 2 to 4 o'clock In tho morning
when It would pother Vviso hnvo gono
to waste, anyway.
I Irrigated only a small part of my
orchard and paid full schedule rntes
for nil 1 used. Aside from this 1 pny
$10,50 every threo months for wator
for my Iioubo on Oakdale nnd my
son's house on Stewart avenue.
So much for Mr. Fehl's ehnrgn of
"favoritism." shown mo on the city
wnt'er question.
Now, In nil truth and fairness, I
ask the Voters or Medford what reli
ance can be placed upon the state
ments of a man who will dollberntoly
publish against auother who ventures
to oppose this Medvnski plan, such
unjust untruthful and libelous state
ments ns ho has published against
me? (1. U. MVU8HAU..
