This is more than can Ijo said of his literary predecessors. About ten years ago Kmerson fon;di honored lis. He arrived at the tail end of a boom. Ueing a conscientious scrihe, he described things as he saw them, iiicludiiiff some observations on the liisr red apple. When his story came out in the' Saturday Evening I'ost there was a great line and cry hereabouts, and the noted author and Ins Magazine were figuratively burned in effigy. Then a few years later Jrvin Cobb arrived. The commercial boom had been replaced by a political boom. The night he gave a talk at the J'age, (here was a Lincoln day banquet at the Medford. Mr. Cobb was invited, lint he declined, illness was given as the cause, ihe general assumption local I v being that tile famous humorist was not ill, but feared be would be if he, a good Southern Democrat, should attend a !. O. I', banquet. !It was even intimated that Mr. Cobb declined the invitation because there was no money in it. Mr. Colli) was naturally very much aggrieved and so were many people in Medford, the net result being unfortunate from every one's .standpoint. Hut Mr. Katon arrives at the proper psychological moment. There is no boom flowing or ebbing. Medford and the liogue Kiver Valley are enjoying excellent health. The artificial hoi air has gone, tbe passion for bunk has passed, conditions arc fundamentally loo good to be spoiled by the slightest misrepresentation. Southern Oregon is aching for publicity and merely asks that the writers describe condi tions just as they are, for they rouldn'1 ho very much better. And there is no political boom raging. Polities lire conspicuous by their absence. There is no possible chance of our honored visitor get ting enmeshed in a web of partisanship. So everyone is glad Air. Katon has come, and everyone hopes he vill be glad also. Crater Lake is our supreme summer attraction and Crater Lake is where he is going. Alcdl'ord offers him the keys of the eily while he is here, anil best wishes for a successful journey when he departs. OH! Hill SO.MIO l'KACOCKS! (Ol-egon City ICnlerpiise.) 'Mr. und Mrs. V.

THE SUCKERS 1 dn UK sucker falls for every scheme, believes in everv honjuinl am, and nothing puis him wise; nil hough he's warned In voices shrill, the sucker is a sucker still, and will be till he dies. "A million plutes have hoarded beans, and ride around in limou sines, and suckers pay the freight ;. plutes say, when sizing up their kale, '.'The sucker crop (tan never fail, and. life is simply great." The suckers toil at, grievous tasks, anil save the coin in kegs and casks, and should lie wearing bells; but lio, I hey say, "We'll get. rich quick," and. go and buy the gilded bricks some tinhorn faker sells. They have no use for banks, l hey say, and hide their money in the hay, or 'neatli the cellar floor; then some one finds the treasure hole, find bears away the hard earned roll, and brings il back lio more. ' The suckers patronize the seers who tell them of Ihe future years; and what shall them befall; and when they're sick they take their rocks and hand them to the i'ak- ing docs who travel on their gall. You cannot change the sucker's heart; he thinks he is so blooming smart, he scorns your good ad vice; he thinks your counsel trite and stale, and all the sharks get on his trail, and touch him for the price.- HOW MUCH DO YOU KNOW?
