THE ONLY STATE ISSUE
o
npIIK MAILTiniH'NK lias taken little interest in the
JL iriinnry elertimi. as im vital issue lias been involved,
and it is merely a choice of personality. The candidates all
promise the same liefore election, and upon personality
depends performance.
The people of Oregon do not like machine government.
Mpcanse of machine dictation, they smashed the republican
machine and elected a democrat governor. The effort now
being made to rebuild the republican machine is therefore
of interest to all the people. It is the only state issue.
The efforts of the (J. 0. 1 machine are centered upon
the defeat of Hen Olcott as secretary of state and the
election of the reactionary secretary of the state organiza
tion, an important machine cog, in his place. The only
charge against Mr. Olcott is that he has refused to obey the
mandates of the governor when they were against his host
judgment. .For this independence, the entire energies of
the machine, the state officials, the party reactionaries and
the partisan press are centered. It is the man vs. the ma
chine. Kvon his woi-st enemies admit that Air. Olcott-is the
most efficient secretary of state in the commonwealth's
history. In ovi'vy way he has made good. His business
judgment is excellent, his office is systematized and up-to-date,
and on the board of control he has voted as his
conscience dictates. This, and the fact that he belongs to
I the progressive wing of the
ary, constitute his ollense. Air. Olcott, in briel. tuts re
fused to make room for the liungrv hangers-on of politics
and insisted upon employes lending to work instead of
playing politics.
Aw the republicans of Oregon ready for a return to
machine government I If they are not, they will votu for
Olcott. Machine government means another democratic
governor.
THE FEDERAL
AMICASriJK that should command the full support of
the people of Oregon is the l.aukhead good roads
bill, which passed the senate and is now pending in the
house, where it was introduced as the Shackleford bill.
The bill appropriates .,()()(),())() to be spent in 1!)I7,
$(),()(IU,(l()) in liHS, $1.-,(l()0,(l)(i in 101!), U(),()(M),()()() in
10120, and 2r,()0(),()()0 in l!)21 of federal moneys in the con
st ruction and improvement of public highways in co-operation
with states through their various highways depart
ments. The money is to be distributed among the states in pro
portion to the slate's rating, one-third in ratio of the stale's
area, one-thin! in ratio of population and one-third in ratio
which the mileage of rural delivery and star routes in each
state I teal's to the total mileage of all stales. Projected
road improvements umst first be submitted by the states
to the secretary of agriculture for approval, and all work
must be done under supervision of the sta'e's highway de
partment. There is also appropriated $1,000.1)00 a year $10,000,
000 in all - to Im- expended under the supervision of the
secretary of agriculture, for roads and trails within or only
partly within the national forests, in co-operation with
state and county, the aggregate expenditures not to exceed
10 iercent of the value of the timber and forage resources
within tht unties, the expenditure to be reimbursed from
the receipts of the national forest.
Il is under this hitler provision that the Crater Lake
highway and similar roads will be improved.
The measure should receive the hearty indorsement of
every one in Jackson county and public officials, commer
cial bodies and individuals should at once write to the
Oregon delegation in the house to do their utmost to
secure its passage.
Now that American troops are to leave Mexico, it is
sahU what was the use of going in .'--Oregonian.
Yes, what was the use f Nothing stolen for Rockefeller

While on the ntr..l e often hear
the remark In iIIm usxlnu the merlta

been lu office and w think that lie

were In huslneas, mereatttlle or furni

who had no oxporlence in that line of
work a chance. It seems to mo that
If tht' party In office b efficient work
linn ertabllslied a stem that does the
work at a less rate per cent, ho ahoulil
ho entitled to an advance. In other
words, tho county should adopt the
merit system the same ax any busl
ess man would. Mr. Orleve has been
asKeMsor for this county for two
terms, and by hard work has broiiKbt
up the Itlock System so that now no
property escapes asseaxment, and vr
seldom Is any double assessed. 11
has now a very complete set of pres

No Promises by
A. W. Walker
To the Voter of .Im kon t'niinlv:
Slice h.iln; n tinned home to
Medford about two weeks ngo It has
been rumored to some extent, that
A. W. WalkT, republican canditlato
for the nomination of sheriff, has
promised me tho position of chief
deputy In case of election. In justlco
to .Mr. Walker I wish to make this
statement he has never In any way
promised or mentioned such a thing
to me and If he has any such thoitRlit
in mind t know nothing of It. He
has Rlrc.dy stated In his campaign
that he would not consider friuiul
slill alone for any position. 1 wish
further to say to the taxpaers and
olers of Jackson county If they want
ii man In the aherlff's office who will
enforce nil tho laws and do exactly
as he agrees to do they cannot do
belter than give Mr. Walker tholr
support. I have been Intimately as
sociated with him In business affairs
during the past twelve years, and I
have never known him to make a
promise or an agreement he did not
fulfil. lie has never held office lu
Jackson count v and If elected will
not havo any intercut to serve other
than the public, lie ban conducted
a good, clean campaign, and the vol.
ers owe It to themselves mid .l.ul.
Non cnutilv to give him their Miippoit
