Miss Alice Paul of Pennsylvania was elect ed unanimously today as national chairman of the National Woman's party, formed yesterday by the amul salmallon of the Congressional I'nlon for Woman Suffrage with the former woman's party, organized In Chicago last June. Miss Mabel Vernon or Nevada, was elected secretary and Miss Gertrude Crocker of Illinois treasurer. An executive committee of ten was appointed. Officers and delegates of the wom en's party unanimously agreed thai the suffrage demonstration at the white house Sunday afternoon would take place, rain or shine. The gorunds are to be surrounded by suffrage sen tinels. TIME TO TEST YOUR THERMOMETERS In about a mouth the frost season will again be at hand and we should prepare for it now so as to have everything in readiness. One impor tant mutter Is to know- that the ther mometers are reading accurately which can only be ascertained by comparison with a tested thermome ter. .Usually thermometers costing one dollar or moro are tested at tho factory and the corrections can be seen on oc side of the tube as a check In the glass, usually appeuring at tho 2-32-C2- and 92 degree read ings. Thermometers deteriorate with age and It it always advisable to have them tested after each season's use The bureau of standards ut Wash ington, D. C, tests thermometers at a cost of twenty-five cents each or two dollars per dozen. Those not wishing to go to this expense can have It done ut the County Patholo gist office free of charge us was done last year. All wishing to have ther mometers tested will confer a favor by bringing I hem to the offleo as soon as possible. It takes nearly as long to test a few ns a large number so that It will be n saving of time to us nnd further the work can be done whenever convenient. Cheap ther mometers are unreliable and should be discarded. Undoubtedly many crops have been lost because of a thermometer reading too high and useless smudging done because the thermometer read too low. Reliable thermometers can be purchased for ahout one dollar and twenty-five cents up.

Never have the people of Southern Oregon and Northern California been buoyed with the hope, more warrant ably entertuiued, that the period of permanent revival of the mining in dustry in this region is at hand. In truth, it has already begun in three of the principal districts in this vi cinity, so fur as it may be done 111 the fact of winter conditions, and the promise is apparent that, as soon as the snow shall have disappeared from the surrounding foothills, it will quickly assume an air of busi ness activity never before realized in equal volume in this territory. Conditions arc rapidly assuming a spring-time phase in the Blue Ledge district. Many miners are ready to begin extensive work as soon as they may profitably get busy. The cinna bar excitement In the Itrownshoro sec tion has served to cover the entire known mineralized area with claims. Conditions that will permit active de velopment work are awaited with anx iety. Other Districts Heady. The tSylvanlto region on Rogue river, above Gold Illll, has been fair ly active all winter, barring n few weeks of Inclement weather. Much preparation has been made there for the most extensive development work ever done in that region. The Crave creek region has been a scene of under-ground activity all winter. Prepa ration is In full drive for out-of-door work as soon as conditions may per mit It. In the Gold Hill district, in add! Hon to the work for which prepara tion was made last fall and which was prosecuted during the winter months under-ground, promises re newed activity on a larger scale than for years. The prospect of a sniel ter in this region in the near future had'much to do with this revival of interest in milling -properties gen erally. ) The Jacksonville Aiva. The Opp mine is tho principal property in the Jacksonville district Much worli has been done therein during the winter months, but a good deal of it has been merely prepara tory to unusual operation to begin in the early spring. This property well equipped with machinery and processes for the biggest run in its history, not alone In gold and silver extraction, but in the utilization of by-products in which it has already established a record. The payroll in that mine during the present year will probably he n welcome surprise to Medford. whoso people have so long looked toward Heaven for the appearance of payroll pennants. They will bo found to be of the earth; earthy and tho Opp mine will give them a practical demonstration of that fact. Ashland hopes to figure in the pay roll benefits this yenr nnd will prob ably have a good report for the big edition of The Mail Tribune. Delay Is Necessni-j The prolonged reign of Hurras dur ing the past two months throughout the. entire coast country, in this part of which he has made his presence felt in an uncommon degree has served to delay even the first blush of spring. The fruit buds have wise ly remained enwrapped in their win ter shroud. In which fact the orchard ists find cause for congratulation. The miners, yielding to t he same warning, have impatiently discussed their plans over the embers or the grate for a month during which they are usually busy otherwise. Therefore, the committee having in charge the matter of determining the date of Copper day and the important events that should follow It in the .Mineral Development league's work will probably yield to the sumo con ditions und delay the date of that eventuality of the Initial work for a month. It is generally believed that conditions contributing to its success will be developed in better form In that time. Activity in the mineral disricts will then have been resumed and accounts of the work will have a special Interest that can not now he given them. Fred MePhcrson of Eagle Point spent Friday afternoon in the city at tending to business matters. DR.

IN THESE DAYS OF In the day when Kaiser 11111 with his band of Hernstorffs and lleilwigs plotting as to how they might get a few greasers and maybeso Jap boys after King Woodrow, and by fair or four means get the O. X. G. and Captain Vance stirred upto the point of taking a shot at something, there arose a grout howl in the great i Uogue river valley because of the j price of horse feed and men to plow i and harrow, then one mighty man called VAN whose sir name was WANNING called to noisy Shorty to say that there had come via. the great streaks of steel an object sim ilar to a large grass hopper and was being held .at the depot. So away goes Ilig Johnson with a gallon of dis tilate and a bucket of cold water. Gives the thing a drink;- got him out in the street and lo! It came dancing and prancing up the street, turned around a few times und there came after him a mighty urmy to see what it was. And about that time along came a nice fat horse and after look ing It over said "What can you do 1 wonder?" So the little track pull tractor said 1 can do with one gallon of distilate as much plowing as ti of your kind. Feed me distllute and water once a day, and furnish mo a man to guide me and I will work for hi in 10 long hours and the poor old horse said, "If you can do that you have surely got iny goat for Sum ner Hill, Vilas. Stone. Parsons, and a thousand others will not want to keep piling $18.00 hay into me and my kind, but I do not believe you can do all you say." "Well," said Mr. Track-bull, "Sir horse Just as soon as the sun dries up the mud, Dig John son will havo me out In Dillon's hills orchard with a couple of gangs beneath me and we will show to the Doubting Thomas hoys of this valley just what we can do, so keep your eyes and ears open and The Mall Tribune and the Sun will give the date I am to do my little stunt. Just toll the boys over the valley to go over on the west side and ask Noisy Shortie. He is always willing and ready to show mo up. I am in Med ford for the next ten days and then I am supposed to go north, so be good for the present nnd watch for my coming-out day." Yours Truly TUB BE AX TltACKHl'LL. !
