Th- home tod.iy pji.td The jenatt b'.H to authorize I. t-uc of rifles and other MAIL TRIBUNE MEDFOftD, OKEflO TTTTTRSDAY, .TUNE 7, 1017 T During a short informal debute lust night every member of the city council and Mayor (Jutes expressed himself vigorously ns favoring the strict en forcement of the state bone dry law, and as in favor of compelling nil in tnxieation prisoners who are unable to pay fines imposed to work out their fines in some sort ot employment tor the city, nnd commented also that prisoners lie mado to tell where they got their liiiior. The ilehate was precipitated bv the monthly report of 1'olicc Judge Tay lor, which showed that three men ar rested for intoxication and who were unable to pny their fines hud been re leased. The entire discussion wns brief nnd informal, but it is probable that in the near future steps will be taken by the council to compel a more strict enforcement of the law. Police Judgo Taylor politely slated Thursday that he was doing his part and that, the couneilmcn should do theirs before talking wildly about compelling prisoners unable to pay fines to work them out for the ben efit of the eily. Wants a Hock Pile. "I nm perfectly willing," he suid, "to make drunks work out their fines if the city will provide work for them to do, and nlways have been. I Ihink from now on I will put the issue squarely up to the council by sending every mint to jail who is unable to pay his fine. That is all I can do, and it is then up to the city council to provide work for the num. "For years I have advocated that the eily have a rock pile or something liko that at which prisoners can be made to work out their fines. The eonnlv, too, should have the si.ime thing. "I'nder the law offenders must either pay their fines or work out their sentences in jail nt the rata of $'2 a day. A judge, of course, is al ways sii)Mised to use common sense judgment in imposing sentences or re milting them. Tho odd pnrt of this council flare up Inst night, ns I heard it related, is Unit a number of the couneilnien have rcjwilcdly told me not to send prisoners who were unable to pay fines to the eily .juil, because such proeecdure was only an expense and bother to the city as the citv had no way of letting them work out the fines. Three, Cfl-ses Clled. "Now take these three eases that started this council discussion hist night. What would any councilman who criticised have done as judge un der the circumstances? "('. F .Dctwiler, for instance, plead ed guilty to intoxication. I fined him 1(1 and costs. He had no money and he had a family to support. Then there was Samuel Sunders who was arraigned before me for intoxication ltd was without a cent and wns in very poor hciilth. I continued both these eases pending good behavior Until Ihe.-e men got drunk at Horn brook, California, nml then came here in that condition and were arrested. "The third ease which was incliiilcd in mv report to the council was that of a man who gave the police th name of S. Smith and put up cash bail of - I.'i for his appearance in mv court, lie never appeared and hi f la was tortciteil. I never even saw him, hut of course put the ca--c in mv monthly report. Got in California. In llie big majority of intoxication cases that conic before me the pri oners got their booze in California r.vcrv intoxication case before me is called to the attention of County Prosecutor Kobcrts both bv metf and the n,iec anil he makes an in- tigiitioil us to where curb got his liquor on which lie became iutoxiocat- ed." Kobeit Corcoran who got off train lti !nt night in n bmlly intoxicated condition and was arrested bv Officer Timothy, was sentenced by Jtnlgc Taylor this momim: lo pay a line of 10 or he sent to ( lit city .jail for five davs. Corcoran said he preferred I go to jail mid so he was committed to thai place of confinement.

RIGKERT vvstr.HT pi'ko w.isr WATER SHUT OFF No immediate relief is in sight in tho water situation and the best promise that the city otticinls can hold forth is that within the next two or three days there will be a normal supply of water both for irrigation and ordinary use. The situation was much improved today. Less water is pouring from the Fish lake dam and consequently Little Hutte creek is lowering grad ually and tho water in the creek is beginning to clear up. It was thot thut by tonight the work of repairing the break at Fish lake dam would be ompleted by the liogue River Canal ompiiny. When the repair work is ompleted the flood gales of the dam which have been opened to allow, the (I :i in water to run "through will be losed, and then the creek will clear up. Cily Water Superintendent Arn pigcr is at the city water intake, 13 miles this side of the (lam with a rew of cily employes ready to be gin the work of making quick tempo rary repairs at the intake. Rcfore returning to the intake this forenoon he said that within six hours after the flood gates of the dam were clos ed and the high creek water had sub- ided he could have the creek water pouring into the intake nnd on its way to the city. It is expected that the reck water will clear up very quickly after the flood gates are closed. Then the Wassen canyon wnler which has been supplying tho city since last night will he shut off. I'nder orders of Mayor Gates the water connections of a Inige number of consumers wore today shut off by the city water department, because of their offense in Continuing to lrfignte Jawns and gardens in defiance of the citv's orders not to do so. This drastic action was decided upon when it was discovered tin: morning that the city reservoir was lowered eight feet during tho night thru surreptitious irrigating nguinst orders. This policy of shutting off the wuler connections of offenders will be continued until normal water conditions lire restored nnd irrig'.tion is again permitted. The city reservoir wns shut off 'onipletely from the water system to ilay as a mutter of fire precaution. The only water being supplied the city today was trom assen can yon, which ran direct into the cily mains. To Klamath Falls Sunday Will leavo for Klamath Falls Sun day morning.

The river steamer Kllen today wns fast on the submerged rocks of Three Mile reef in the Columbia river, near here, where she stranded last night. No boatmen from here have yet dard to cross the swift waters of the flooded river to rescue the four men aboard. From the shore it appears the boat is in no immediate danger of sink ing and if there are enough supplies aboard the men are safe. It is be lieved, the Kllen was caught in the swollen current nnd carried in the darkness on to the rocks. She sent up distress rockets last night. The Ellen is an 80-foot stem wheel er owned by the People's Navigation company of Portland, nnd wns being taken up the Columbia to be used on the Lewis river.

LAST OF CHICKS LEAVE POSTOFFICE The last of the chicks hatched in the federal building incubators were tnken away this forenoon by their owners. From the 5000 eggs that were placed in the electric incubators over three weeks ago, J-10 eggs were hatched, a percentage of o2 per cent. Of the many persons who had eggs placed in the incubators Mrs. Hague of Apple street was the most fortu nate person, ns she got chicks from 88 percent of her eggs. Some potions got chicks from only four percent of their eggs. Assistant Postmaster Warner, who originated the plan, is very much plensed with its outcome, lie says that public gratitude should go to the ladies of the Greater Medford club who assisted in the project nnd turned the eggs in the incubators over twice daily for 18 days.
