POLICE CAPTURE
BOOTLEG STILL
Thr wan some boo7-e enforcing
excitement In the city last night,
cihsM by the sheriff locating an idle
iitil.,ln the brush along Bear creek,
Mouth of the city, and the arrival of
a man with two quarts of whiskey in
a suit case on the late train from tl.e
north. These incidents were not con
nected, only that they related to tho
violations of the prohibition lawr.
' As ft net result of the excitement.
the stranger with the two quarts of
booze got away, no one knows who
owns the atlll, and 1)111 Sham, the taxi
driver who hauled the booze laden
vtranger to a placo in the residence
district was arrested later by Patrol
man Hempstrcct on tho charge, of In
toxication, for which he was fined $25
-d costs in Judge Taylor's court this
forenoon.
Sheriff Terrill, Deputy Sheriff Mo
Mahon and NlKht Patrolmen Adams
and Hempstreet took part in the ex
citement which started by some one
tipping the sheriff off to the fai t tho
still wail lying In the brush along
Bear creek. The sheriff and his dep
uty forthwith went there and pounced
upon tho still which was a fine nnd
complete one with coils, lying quietly
in a grain sack. Then the arms. of
the Itiw layv concealed in the-vicinity
foj. for no hour, or more wnltlntri for
the, owner to "Come and not It, until

quarts of boo2e')ii' his suit case. This
man hod -Jumped Into Sham's taxi,
which drove n'tilckly away. Tho po
lice waited until Hham returned, and
then Started at . once for tho house
where Sham said ho had delivered
the - passenger. He was not at thlH
house nor could ho bo found In the
vicinity, and It Is thought that when
hea saw the polico at tho depot ho sus
plciuned that they wero laying for
him, and had Sham drive toia house,
In front of which ho got out, nnd then
when Bham drovo away, cached his
whiskey somewhere, walked away and
disappeared. .
Sham was arrested later, and It Is
claimed ho becamo Intoxicated thru
the stranger treating him when they
were driving to tho lattor's supposed
home.

At tho regular meeting of the
Medfoi'd Post of the American Legion
last night, tho slacker list for Jack
son county, comprising H names was
road, and discussions of tho cainpulgu
for tho bonus bill election .lunn 7th
hold. Tho slacker matter was treated
as highly confidential.
Tho bonus bill was read to the
Joint session with the Ladies' Auxil
iary by Colonel K. E. Kolley, nnd It
Has the concensus of opinion that the
last lcglslaturo had pnBsed "the buck
to tho pcoplo" with the bonus bill.
II was also argued by various speak
ers that tho bonus should have been
Klvon to the ex-servlco men "without
quibbling." It was shown by Ralph
Cowgill that 0 per cent of the cx
sorvlce men would avail themRclvcs
of tho homo loan, and not tho cash
feature of the bill.
It was decided to request the Jack
son county delegation In the legis
lature to tnko the stump In bohnlf of
tho bonus, bill. Ono of tho members
nan announced his Intention of doing
so, and thn others aro going to be
asked to follow suit.
It was also decided to hold a cab
aret during tho summer on a largo
scale.
After tho session light refresh
ments wero served by tho Ladles'

The mayor and city council are in a
determined mood that the people of
the city must clean up their alleys of

but many have not.
The council also heeded the petition

In the neighborhood of the Medford
concrete Construction company plant
on South Riverside, declaring tho rock

ment of the plant a noise nnd health
nuisance, by instructing Chief Tim
othy to sco that the company docs not

C. J. Scamon, the president and

oporutlvo effort botwon manaRement
nnd workerfl and added that this co
operation could heat be obtained
through tho medium of uniform
aKrcemeiits reached by collective bar
gaining. Recoverable and easily estimated
wastes wero divided by the exhibit
under nine heads having to do largely
with construction and care of loco
motives and shop machinery, cost ac
counting nnd labor turnover.
The wnstoa which tho 'unions said
could not bo estimated In terms of
money Included a variety of subjects
ranging from defective train equip
ment and tracks through allegations
of incompetent and extravagant man
agement. In tho Inst class emphasis was laid
upon publicity nnd advertising and
on what tho unions thought was un
necessary legal expenses. Such ex
penditures. It was claimed, have
served to increase and have been
charged wrongfully to operating
costs.
It was also charged that much of
the defective equipment which the
managements of tho road are using
as an argument for tho need of de
creased wage costs, could have been
avoided if the roads had declared loss
liberal dividends nnd use a proper
proportion of their earnings to es
tablish replacement funds.

"More factories and more people
not the only or the chief path that
leads to community prosperity. The
mere inereuK in population wouiij
not account for one tenth of the in
t Tease in business in tho last ten or
Hie last fifty years of modern com
mercial development.
"Real bUHiness progress conifH from

f!mnd Rapids turns out enormous

The courage to undertake now
things, t branch out into new fields,
to' struggle against seeming impossi
bilities these are qualities of the
spirit and are the vital forces In com
mercial progress.
"Further than initiative, enterprise
and courage the business men of to
day must recognize their interdepen
dnnce on one another and the vitlues
of co-operation and organization. Dis
aster to one irrevocably spells propor
tionate disaster to all.
Value of Co-oiH'ratlon.
"Not many years ago the banks of
Chicago were so jealous of one an
other that n. rustomeP could jivrnmid
bis loans right among the banks of
the city without the slightest fear of
discovery. Finally the Walsh failure
with its enormous losses, jarred the
banks into co-operation. ,
"The business man who Imagines
that he can live independently of the
activities of his fellow citizens, is en
gaging in costly self-deception. Kvery
civilized man is dependent upon
others. The retailer needs customers,
the lawyer clients, the doctor patients,
the manufacturer laborers, the work
er, employment.
"The whole fabric of civilization Is
so woven thut no thread may be ne
glected without the Imperfection
showing. It may appear like the va
poring of a dreamer to say that cities
must set about the development of
eltizeiiH with vision; must create line
community ideals; must raise th-
standard of citizenship, even though
other matters are neglected: but it is
thetie IntungihfaL- things that have
made cities Kreat all the way down
through history.
"It is not mere numbers that count.
For ages China had the most popu
lous cltlea of tho world.- The black
population of Africa far outnumbers
the white, but because it wants few of
the so-called necessaries of life there
is little business in the black regiona;
because no value is set upon the arts
and sciences, both are absent; be
cause no high ideals hold sway, thero
is no progress.
The Civic Spirit.
"There arc scores of American
cities with sufficient population to do
the work of ancient .Athens or Flor
enc0 or Venice. Hut these American
cities lack tho spirit, the intangible
force to drive ahead on right lines.
Perhais it would he more nearly cor
rect to say that the American cities
have not organized their citizenship
to the end of bringing out all the
genius, all the enterprise, all the
thion their people possess.
"It is this organization of the
spiritual forces lor human advance,
that the Chamber of Commerce is
called to promote. Surely it is worth
