LARGEST IN
HISTORY OF CITY
Encouraging news to tho business
men and people generally of Medford
and vicintty Is the fact that the pay
roll here last Saturday was the larg
est in three years, and It hustled the
merchants to cash all the pay checks
tendered Saturday, late afternoon
and evening, as the banks close at
noon.
It Is estimated that from $18,000
to $20,000 was paid out by the mer
chants lato Saturday afternoon and
evening In cashing the checks of the
workers from tho orchards, ranches,
irrigation systems, road Improve
ments, box factory, logging camp, new
mill and the like. Only a compara
tively small force as yet is employed
at tho large new mill, compared to
the number who will be working
thero luter on.
Merchants who cash Biich pay
checks regularly had thought they
had made arrangements to havo
enough money on hand for this pur
pose, but they were caught unawares
by the deluge of weekly pay checks
which showed up In town. By dili
gent bustling and cooperation among
the lending merchants, however, all
checks were met with sufficient
money.
It is predicted that this condition
will last almost all fall and almost
up until Christmas time, Including
the pay roll of the city of Medford,
which will build at least u new reser
voir and pipe line system, beginning
In early September.
The Shorthorn breeders of south
ern Oregon are expecting to take ad
vantage of the Jackson county fair
to put somo of their best stock before

A. E. Lawson. field man for the
Shorthorn Breeding Association of
America, has been in tho county for
several days getting a lino on the
available animals for sale.
A cntutogue of the animals going
up for Balo will probably bo made
up, Bhowlng their pedigree. Short

want listed should get In touch with

SMOOT DELAYS SUGAR PROBE
(Continued from page one)
now trying to throttle tho sugar In
dustry of America, ho said, adding
that stock promoters and speculators
had taken up tho propaganda to sup
port them In "hundreds of millions
of dollars of stock In Cuban sugar
comapnies foisted on the American
public."
Their AVnr ltnbles
"Those are their war babies,"
Senator Smoot declared, "and they
are asking that our own children be
kicked out of our own homes to make
place for theirs."
The beet sugar Industry, Mr. Smoot
said, engnged 700,000 acres of the
best agricultural lands of the coun
try, 100,000 farmers, 85,000 field
hands and 35,000 fnctor'y operatives
who, he said, furnish competition
necessary to prevent monopoly and
hold down prices.
"It's hardly fair to ask that this
Industry be destroyed to cover Cu
ba's economic blunders and aid this
set of men (tho refiners) to control
Bupply and fix prices of sugar," said
the Utah senator. Ho added that the
.present propaganda was the same
that was used when the Underwood
tariff bill was before congress, whon.
ho said, it was sliawn that .Onus
Sprecklns "put up tho money" and
was aided by 10. G. Lowrey of the
Wholosnlo Grocors' association.

Hon of railway transportation to full

that tho terms were not accepted.
"The resolution which you trans
mit on behalf of the executives to
pledge that the carriers 'will recog
nize the validity of all decisions of
the railway labor board and faith
fully carry out such decisions as con
templated by law.' You convey the
further agreement, as expressed in
the second paragraph of the proposal
that 'rallroud labor board decisions
which have been involved In the
strike, may bo taken in the exercise
o recognized rights by either party
to the railroad labor board for re
hearing.' "The striking employes agreed to
all the terms proposed, therefore
only the question of seniority, cov
ered in paragraph three, which the
executives rejected, remains in dis
pute and bars a settlement. Mindful'
of the pledge of both the executives
and tho striking workmen to recog
nize the validity of all decisions by
tho railroad labor hoard, I am hereby
calling on the carriers to asisgn them
to work, and calling upon both
workmen and carirers under the law
tfl take the question In dlsputo to
tho railroad labor board for rehear
ing and decision and a compliance
by both with the decision rendered.
