I ! ' if tfEDFO'Rn frfATL TRTRUyE. arEDFOTtn, OT?IYiONT, T?mrAY,'" SEPTEMBER. 20. inifi PXHE TITRETJ V mm MAY BE FEATURE L Great preparations are being made by the Ilughes Alliance for a rousing reception to be given the Morgan Vanderbllt - Giiggcnholin - Uelmont "golden special" train, financed by Wall street and carrying women of the New York "400" on their mission ary tour, seeking converts for Hughes. . ,. . , The train, Itself is a palatial affair, the finest of the kind ever employed ' In a political campaign and carries all the comforts of home. One car is reported specially designed for bridge parties and pink tea will be gracious. y poured for the common people. Another compartment car, it is re ported, carries the poodle-dogs and pet monkeys so that tho queens of the smart set can preside at their customary functions. ' Thore is much excitement over meeting these famous monkeys and poodles, and hopes are entertained that a rousing welcome will result in an invitation to dine. Perhaps Med ford people may be Invitod to bring their own pets, and are nomowhat in a quandry. Medford boasts no monkeys and only a few poodles, but is strong on tom-cats, n is under stood, liowovor, that only imported hyuennted toms with whiskers like Hughes' aro received In the smart set. ' ,. . , j Some who are anticipating enter tainment at tho hands of the "400" are very optimistic as to the form It may take and are hoping for that rarest and most ingenious function, a monkey dinner. It Is suggested that a similar local function might bo attempted to familiarize local climbers with the etiquette of Buch occasions, but also Medford has no zoo. Hope, however, is not entirely dead, as the recent G. O. P. gibber jngs suggest material for a near "baboon dinner," whlrh Is good enough for a prohibition state. Another barrier has appeared In tho Oregon dry law, which only al lows Intoxicants to be received by a "person or faultily" and makes no pro vision for tho monkey. This Is another blot on tho Oregon system and an Index to the Inability of the pcoplo to legislalo. Thcro Is no prohibition upon clgarC cttes, however, and tho "golden" ladios can be assured of their favorite - brands. y . , r ADAMSON BILL THEME OF HUGHES niNGHAlil'TON, X. V., Sept. 29. Charles E. Hughes motored over muddy streets through the first rain storms he has experienced since com mencing his campaign August 5, to address an audience hero today. The strenuous program laid before him by the national chairman was vetoed by the nominee himself, who merely appeared on the rear platform of his car so that tho crowds might see him at stations between Saratoga and 'Blnghampton. It had been planned to have him speak at these stations, but at the last moment it was de cided to have local speakers take his place so that he might conserve his voice. i Mr. Hughes spoke of tho protec tive tariff. "I tell you fellow citi zens," he said, "we are facing a critical period.. It is no time to be talking of a tariff for revenue only. AVe need protection to our industries and there is no man In the country today who can tell you where the democratic party stands with respect to protection of American interests. "It takes all of us, too, to make the United States and to make our country prosperous and we'll never do it Jinless labor and capital work together amicably." Tho nominee renewed his attack on the administration for tho Adamson bill. He declared that he "would like to seo an eight-hour work 'day," but that he stood squarely for Investiga tion beforo legislation and would "not yield an Inch either to labor or capital," In that principle.

L MAY LAST WEEK The foreign odor and taste in the city water will continue at least a week, and may last for n month, ac cording to Water Superintendent Olcn Arnspiger. The Itogue liiver Canal company, he explained, is draining the water from Fish lake in order to gather and burn the debris in the bottom of the lake. At the same time, they are ad,jusliiir the gates at the outlet of the lake, some times lowering and sometimes raising them so that Ihe water and Hcdimcut is being constantly roiled up. When a large head is allowed to puss through, the creel; is raised, and by Ihe time Ihe water reaches tho city intake it has picked up n largo ac cumulation of silt and vegetable mat ter from the banks. If the condition of Ihe water is not abated within the next two or three days, Arnspiger stated, he will go to Ihe lake and endeavor to have the gales opened as wide! as tho size of Ihe creek bed will allow and complete the drainage in the shortest possible lime. However, there are between .ri(l(t and (MX) acres covered with wn ter, and at best it will require a week to empty Ihe nreu of water. In spite of the odor and tasto, he continued, there need bo no fear of contamination from the water, as tho tests recently made show the water to be remarkably free from bacteria. The safe way, however, is to boil the drinking water. Jlshby-Lexicon-n- LARS 1 5 ots. oh, 6 lor 90 !.
