Tin' majority was so overwhelming that there can be no doubt about the will awl intent of the people. Med ford is nearer united than for many years, which augers well for the city. Only a united community can progress and prosper. .Mr. jMeuyiiski and ins loiiowmg maue a valiant iignt for a lost cause. November 9, 191"), the Medynski plan was defeated in all three wards by a majority of 112, re ceiving (MS to 7(i0 against; it. In' Tuesday's election the vote for the plan decreased to ;"."), and the majority against increased to 'AW. The result indicates plainly the senti ments of the people, as does the majority of (513 for the Hanson plan. 1 1 is the part of good citizenship and civic patriotism to accept cheerfully the verdict ot the majority. Next to a winner, the world loves it good loser, and it is to be hoped, for the good of .Medford, that Mr. Medynski and his sup porters of the Medynski plan prove good losers. It is unfortunate that ill-advised supporters insisted upon Mr. Xordwick's candidacy against his desires, thus unnecessarily complicating the situation, through misun derstandings, and forcing undeserved humiliation upon a most wort It v citizen. Attempted injection of the relig ious issue bv fanatics met a deserved rebuke as it alwavs should. Now that the election is over, let us forget the petty strife and animosities engendered and unitedly work for a greater and a better Medford, 'for united, we prosper, divided we make for adversity. PASSING A SAN FRANCISCO dispatch tells of millions of dol lars to be invested in irrigated sections of Califor nia in beet sugar lactones. A syndicate represented York has planned to erect a .Joaquin count v. Efforts are Surprise valley, Modoc county, in which the Mormon church is interested, into a great beet sugar manufacturing district. The t wo projects are investment of sfS )()(,()()(). The Western Sugar Ivcfining company, controlled by the Spreckels', has planned a 10,000-acre sugar beet ranch and a $2,()(H),()(X) lactory at Manteca, San Joaquin county Some of t hese millions could and would be diverted into the Medford district of the irrigation. .Not. only do we. lose sugar lactones, but can neries and creameries. Opportunity will continue to pass by and the valley lost! every year more than the total cost oput ting water on the land, until the land-owners awaken to its necessity. Having defeated the district plan, it is time for the large land-ownei's, who claim to favor irrigation, to eome forward with a practical proposition for securing it. When they have studied the question in all its phases, they will probably realize that the dist rict plan is not only the cheapest and most equitable for all concerned, but of fers the land-owner the only security of permanency. Meanwhile, the valley marks time, awaiting action.

Tlio passage of u preferential presidential primary law, of a non-partisan elec tion bill and a law that would brine about absolute prohibition in tlio state were measures recommended today lu the consideration of the Washington slate legislature by Governor Ernest Lister in his second inaugural mes sage. "I am sure,'' lie said, "Unit the great majority of the voters of the state of Washington desire to be al lowed to express their preference for :licir party nominee for president of tho United States and would respect fully recommend the passage of a preferential presidential primary law, so Hint such expression may be given by the voters." Tile governor declared the recent elections indicated llial the spirit of partisanship in connection with tlio selection of public officials was rap idly disappearing, and in recommend ing tile passage of a non-partisan election bill covering all state, coun ty and city officials saitl: "The peo ple would be better served were par tisanship entirely eliminated." He lilted the passage of an tidtli tioiuil prohibition measure, which would stop tho importation of I'uiuor for personal use now pennitted un der restrictions. "The tendency,-' lie said, "is clear ly toward nation-wide prohibition: the state of Washington has indicated its views by the advanced steps al ready taken. The benefit to the pcu ple is so apparent that 1 believe you will be nctinK wisely if you enact into low at this time a measure that will brin;; about absolute prohibition in the state." yC There in one eure, safe way to avomaoiotcny, pimply sfcin.
