Med ford's public market has been a success where

FOR STATE ROADS
SACIlAMEXTO, Jan. 5. When
77 more miles of concrete base road
and 76 miles of graded roadway have
been completed, the California stale
highway commission will have con
structed and graded a total of
l."iC2.;',3 miles costlllK $1 K, 0011,000,
the total amount of the first stale
highway bond lt:sue, according to a
special stale road and highway re
port submitted to Oovcrnor Johnson
by the state cuKlnecrlnK department
and the stale highway commission.
The complete Btate highway sys
tem, exclusive of tli! special laterals
provided for In the $10,000,000 bond
Issue Just voted for by the electorate
of the state, is to be ()') miles in
lennth. The figures Indicate that the
system Is less than half constructed,
but with the organization now avail
able, all the field work and data
ready. It will be possible and feasible
to complete the system with the $12,
000,000 avallablo, leaving $3, 000, 000
for special cross-country roads pro
vided In the bond issue.
A recapitulation of what (he state
has received Tor the $ IS, 000. 000 out
lay shows the following miles of tho
various kinds of slule roads con
structed by the commission: Con
crete base; Topoka surfacing, IS. 08
miles; concrete base, asphalt surfac
ing, "i.4l miles: macadam, Topoka
surfacing, ICfi-l; macadam, oiled,
IKS. 40 miles; nsphaltlc concrete,
10.:t7 miles; bridges, .81 of a mile:
graded only 410.65, making a total
of 1.562.23 miles of state highway.
The stale highway commission is
particularly proud of lis concrete
road and calls tho governor's atten
tion to the fact that tho oldest con
crete roads built by the commission
have been protected by the thin
bituminous wearing coat for nearly
four years and the maintenance cost
has been very low.
"The commission has developed
what may be called Us standard typo
of pavement consisting of a relative
ly thin concrete base covered and
protected by a thin bituminous wear
ing coat. The concrete is laid with
out expansion joints and upon a well
consolidated subgrnde," says the re
port.
COMMUNICATION.
To tho Editor;
The injustice of charging the full
amount of the paving debt against
the property abutting tho pavement
has been recognized by the city coun
cil, by every committee appointed to
investigate it. and by every individual
who has given it uny thought.
Any attempt ou the part of tho city
to collect by direct assessment, tho
balance of tho paving debt, from
tho owners of the property abutting
tho pavement would collapse.
Tho litigation that would follow
Ibis attempt on the part of the city
and the subsequent effect it would
have upon the value of all of the
property In Medford would Increase
the sentiment against this procedure
so action would be deferred as in the
past.
Too ninny lots would be found that
It would be necessary to proceed
against, so too largo a per cent of
the property owners would oppose it.
If this was u large city liko Se
attle, with only n small area nnd a
small per cent of the people effected,
tho public sentiment would bo con
siderable than it will be here.
In a town this size it becomes n
family affair and in this instance too
many members of the family are ef
fected. Pay according to benefits derived
in good business.
This principal should be applied In
balancing the paving account. And
It happens at this time that this prin
cipal will be nearly enough applied
by following tho lines of least resis
tance in solving this paving problem
so that practically every one will be
satisfied.
First: the city should assume the
remainder of the paving debt wlth-

out any hope, threat or endeavor on
the part of the city to collect it by
direct assessment from those own
ing properly abutting tho pavement.
Under any plan that has been dis
cussed the city must Issue its bonds
to pay this debt of something like
$525,000.00, vbut the Hanson plan
proposes that this amount bo col
lected by tho city through direct as
sessment from those owning property
on the paving.
It would be "proceeding along the
lino of least resistance" to attempt
this collection.
Second: Tho accounts of those
owning property abutting the pave
ment, should bo adjusted in a man
ner so that all will be placed on an
equal footing. The original total
cost of the paving was $925,000.00.
Owners of property on the pavement,
through direct assessments, have
paid $ 170,000.00, a little over 50
per cent of tho original cost. Now any
one who has not paid as much as this
50 per cent of tho original cost of the
paving debt against his lot, should
be held for the amount of this defic
iency In order that those who have
paid In more than this 50 per cent
can be reimbursed for the amount
over paid. Ten years could ba given
to straighten up this; one-tenth due
each year with the wholo amount
left charged against tho property so
that in case of default the city could
get judgment for the wholo amount.
Public sentiment would be strong
enough to enforce this adjustment.
Credits could bo Issued by tho city
to those who had paid more than
50 per cent.
Third: Property should be re
assessed for tax purposes. This
could be done by appointing commit
tees as outlined In the "Mcdynski
Plan."
Fourth: The city should re-bond
as necessary to take care of the clip's
indebtedness.
If both the Hanson and Mcdynski
plans are defeated, a "50-50 Plan"
will bo proposed. Vote "No" at the
coming election on both plans sub
mitted. J. C. BAltXES.
nelieving that tho best interests of
the City of Medford demand that the
Hanson plan of refinancing he adopt
ed, we hereby recommend that every
citizen Interested In the future wel
fare of the city vote for the Hanson
plan.

Get the Habit of
Drinking Hot Water
Before Breakfast
Says we can't look or feel right
with the system full
of poisons.
MilllonB of folks bathe Internally
now instead of loading their system
with drugs. "What's an inside bath?"
you say. Well, it is guaranteed to per
form miracles if you could believe
these hot water enthusiasts.
There are vast numbers of men and
women who, Immediately upon arising
in the morning, drink a glass of real
hot water with a teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in it. This is a very
excellent health measure. It is In
tended to flush the stomach, liver, kid
neys and the thirty feet of intestines
of the previous day's waste, sour bllo
nnd Indigestible material left over in
the body whieh if not eliminated every
day, become food for the millions of
bacteria which infest tho bowels, tho
cjuick result is poisons and toxins
which are then absorbed into the blood
causing headache, bilious attacks, foul
breath, bad taBte. colds, stomach trou-
hie, kidney misery, sleeplessness, im
pure blood and alt sorts of ailments.
People who feel good one day and
badly the next, but who simply can
not get fooling right are urged to
obtain a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate at the drug store. This
will cost very little but is sufficient
to mako anyone a real crank ou tho
subject of Internal sanitation.
Just as soap and hot water act on
the skin, cleansing, sweetening and
freshening, so limestone phosphate and
hot water act on tho stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels. It Is vastly mora
important to bathe on tho Inside than
on tho outside, because the skin pores
do not absorb impurities into tho
.blooi' while the bowel porca do.1
