FORGET IT.
TT KOFORD'S H"Jot-Tirrt'tlH,r meet ins in Juno should mark n now
ITX ojtooh in the history of this oonununity, Jf politics oim only
be forjiotton for a tiino, ami tho olil spirit of l'J yoars rovivotl tniil
sustained, Medford will soon bo what it should bo, ono of tho most
prosperous and contented oommunitios on tho l'aoifie ooast.
There is no uso playing tho Polyninia not. Tho rooont unpleasant
ness lias aroused hatreds and preudios, estranged friends, and alien
nted neighbors, and anyone but un ostvith knows it. Hut if there
will be a little spirit of conciliation on both sides, a little sense of
humor here, ami a little common sense there, Medford can easily
return to normalcy again, and business bo resumed as usual.
To do this it is only necessary to face the faets. Now there may
be a race menace in Ueoriria.'lmt that is Georgia's problem, not Ore
gon's. There may be n Jewish menace in Detroit, Henry Ford
thinks there is, but that is Detroit's problem, not Medford 's. There
may bo a religious menace in Massachusetts, but that is Massachu
setts' problem, not Oregon's, i
Iu other words there is no more need for injecting; racial and
religious issues into this community, than there is for injecting Flu
or typhus perms, and one is about as good for business as the other.
So let's drop it. It does no good. It may do great harm. Above
r.ll let's drop this underground and underhanded stuff, circulating
seurrilious religious tracts at night, whispering about this and that,
stirring up the aninials. as they did in the Middle Ages. This may
get a few offices for politicians, and a few dollars for imported agi
tators, but the people as a whole get nothing from it but trouble.
Revive the spirit of 1910. It can be done, even amidst a political
campaign if the people will only get together and do it. This absurd
hocus pocus will all be forgotten iu two years. Lot Medford forget
it now. 1
Let both sides declare a truce at least in Medford. If they want
a reign of terror elsewhere, including Ireland, why. let thorn have it.
. Sufficient unto this community are the real problems confronting it.

COMMUNICATIONS
Favors Getting Dr, Fortier
To the Editor: I note a letter from
the Fruit Growers League in regard to
Securing the services of Dr. Samuel
Fortier to help the water users of the
valley In their Irrigation problems. To
those who do not know of Dr. Fortier,
I would state that he is considered the
foremost authority in the U. S. on the
application of water, and, as chief of
Irrigation Investigations of the U. S.
Dept. of Agriculture, has solved all
manner of irrigation problems through
out the country.
,The assistance of Dr. Foriier here
would be of great value not only to the
fruit growers but to every water user
In the valley.
, In regard to the expense of $2 'per
acre for topographical surveys, I be-
lleve that amount could be reduced by
Using the very reliable and accurate
map made at a great expense by the
Canal company in 1910, and if neces
sary enlarging It, and putting in one
and two-foot contours instead of the
five-foot contours on the present map
1 oelleve tne department would use
this map, though they would probably
desire to check it up, which would
mean -a slight expense per acre.
I think I can speak for the directors
of the Medford Irrigation District in
assuring their hearty support and all
possible cooperation toward securing
the aid of Dr. Fortier, and working out
our water problems. It means a good
many, dollars to the irrigators, and
will be the difference between success
and failure to many owners not famil
iar with irrigation. Let's get together
and push it' through, as we used to do
things in 1910 and 1911.

It's easy to cow the man who shoots the fcull.
If your credit is good, your resolutions to be thrifty probably arc
not.
Apparently movie reform consist iu concentrating all the -wickedness

Take no thought for the morrow. Sufficient uuto the day is the

Those who levy the taxes seem agreed that the upper crust of so,

Fortunately, however, the world doesn't depend for its bread
on the sweat of its highbrows.

There seems to be a theory that it is better to let one innocent man
escape than to convict a few guilty ones.
The criminal won't always escape. Some day the police will take
him for an innocent bystander and crack his head.
A city has advantages. "When you move from a house, you never
know what the next family says about the mess you left things iu.
Near Geneva they have killed a bird with a bill 16 1-2 inches long

LOVING OUE NEIGHBORS
1TRY so hard to love my neighbors! I strive, yet I must say,
I find it harder than the labors by which I earn my pay.
There's Jinx, who lives in yonder dwelling, a tuneful man is he,
and early in the morn he's yelling wild songs of land and sea.
It's then that I would sleep and slumber, with folding of the
hands; and Jinx his voice like sawing lumber, beneath my win
dow stands. I try to love James Towhead Uaker, whose house is
one door west, but he's a sad and tiresome faker who has One
ancient jest; it is a bald and hectic story that Noah shooed away;
and that old yarn, so stale and hoary, James tells me twice a
day. I try to love old Thomas Title, but I loathe politics, and ,
hate discussing topics vital with chew-and-argue hicks. And
Thomas never trie to twitter of any other theme; so loving
thoughts grow sadly bitter, and sympathy's a dream, I thought
one time I was succeeding in loving Hiram Jones and then ho had
me pinched for speeding, hich cost me fifteen bones (15). My
heart is full of loving kindness, with impulse high and strong, but
neighbors, in their wilfuf blindness, all get themselves in wrong.
