' In other words Mr. Burleson applied the principles of private business conducted lor private gam, to . public business conducted for public service, aud according to his reports the system worked in Washington just as it did in Texas. The books showed a balance on the right side of the ledger, and the Postmaster General was sat isfied. - ' , , , But no one else was. Perhaps no one else was satis fied in Texas, although the record- is not so conclusive. At any rate Mr. Burleson's methods impaired the postal service during the .war,, antagonized the American public regardless of party, produced a labor situation which now threatens to tie up the telephone and telegraph service of the country, and finally called forth a protest from the Wilson club of Massachusetts, demanding the removal of the Postmaster General before he had completely wreck ed the Democratic party.; ';; - The general esteem in which Mr. Burleson is held will be indicated, no doubt, by the willingness of even our most partisan Republicans, to, aid in the rescue of the op position, by doing all they can to secure a prompt com pliance with this demand. y y 'y r .

The $30,000 is to match a like sum pledg ed by a lumber company at Butte Falls. The plan proposes final Pur chase of the road through a bond is suer -. ' .. : The drive for the $30,000 is tvoical of Medford. It is the spirit of self help present there that has made Medford a city of parts and promise.

If not now, a time will come when it will. ; The road will be the developing agency bv which added industries here and there along the: line will makd if pav a profit. The region has boundless resources and nothing but a little tune and energv is required to bring them all into nlav. The Medford formula will win. Self help alwavs wins.
