SOME TIME M JUNE A meeting of the directors of the Jackson County Fair association is to bo held this evening at the Chamber of Commerce rooms and plans for the further development of the fair grounds will be discussed. One hundred and eighty dollars is available In a special fund for the purchase of trees. These will be planted as soon an sufficient moisture gets into the ground. In addition to those trees tho Forest Service has of fered to hoc uro native trees und, shrubs all of which will be planted uhder the systematic supervision of N. S. Bennett, who will endeavor to landscape the grounds to the best ad vantage, t The holding of a big two-day auto mobile and motorcycle race meet in June will bo up for consideration. In case this Is decided 'upon, it wilt in volve the enlargement of tho grand stand and the matter of financing same will be a problem. The track with its isuper-elevations is the only speedway of this character in the stale of Oregon and as the hotd fa cilities of Ashland and Medford are ample to accommodate many strang ers, the holding of this race meet here, is most logical. IS OF The quartz mill being manufactured and put out by the Medford Iron Works has created a sensation lu the mining world1 In this country and Alas ka, much to the satisfaction of Edward G. Trowbridge and Harry D. Mills, the owners of that concern which is not only receiving orders but inquiries from all sections. The Popular Me chanlcs magazine, will soon contain a large write-up of this mill, which was invented only limt August by Mr Trowbridge. If the orders continue to come in it will mean a big thing for Medford In the way of manufacturing, pay roll and output. The mill has been given thorough tests, and orders cantinue to pile up. The mill is a small one til- signed for developing mining proper ties of limited financial means and can be operated by one man. It is said that three mills on one property can be operated by a single operator. Among the latest order's received is one for three mills at TellurUle, Colo., which will be transported from Med ford by auto truck all the way, going by way of Bend, Ore., anil another for two mills to be sent to Onkland.

HARVARD COLLEGE STUDENT WARNED BY KU KLUX KLAN CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 21. Whether tho Ku Klux Klan Invaded Harvard college or Hubert Cluy of Colorado Springs, a sophomore, had bene made a subject of a practical joke was In doubt today. On top of a warning to leave the city signed "K. K. K." and a telephone call of the samo nature. Clay said that a fellow student called oa him just be fore he retired last night and repre senting himself as a clansman made a threatening attitude. The offect of his caller's message, he said, was that lio had "better shut up of get out." Clay said be was staying on hoping It was all a joke, yet somewhat concerned because as a former member of the klan in Colorado, he knew enough of Its workings to be afraid. The Harvard collego offico to which Clay reported the threats, ad vised him they were undoubtedly part of a joke and today let it be known that it regarded the matter in that light. The .police refused Clay's request for a permit to go armed and said the case seemed to j be one for the colege authorities to handle. The police, however, turned over to postal authorities the warn- I ing letter which was mailed here. Va NEW SHOW TODAY Playing 'till Saturday Night.

Nov.- 2!), u-hen the nubile hearing will be held on the city budget recently decided on. nml if approved at that meeting an ordinance 'will Immediately bo nassed fixing the 19::l tax levy. This) budget has recently been advertised twice 111 nccuruitm-e vuu me law, and tax payers if opposed to tho budget are expected to attend that meeting und state their objections. The meeting last ninbt with ull members of the council .Messrs. l.ums den. miles, dressier, Antle and Keene and Mayor (lutes present, was a model one, according to tired re porters, and full of brotherly love and pep, only routine matters being discussed. Tho hard work of the council for this year has praetlrully been completed nnd Its members will tread water mostly, waiting for the new administration to come Into power early in January and shoulder the Jmrden. It developed during that part of the session devoted to considering new building permits that J. T. Ciugnon Is not building a new mill at the end of West -Main street, but a one-story frame shed 100x100 foot. But the neighbors and members of tho City Planning commission claim the struc ture Is unsightly nnd will greatly de crease property values lu tho neigh borhood, and have entered a protest in the city council about granting a permit. Although tho much talked, of shed has been completed und was already up before any objection was made to the city council und that body knew about tho mntter, Mr. tlagnon did not apply for the building permit until Nov. 10th, and therefore the appli cation did not come up for considera tion until last night's council meeting. This left tho council much In tho name position of the bar tender In the old dnys who yelled upstairs to the saloon owner and asked: 'So and So wants a drink on credit. Is he irood for It?" "Has ho had it " enmo back the anxious inquiry. ' He has," answered the bar tender. "Ho is," shouted back the owner. Joe Chignon's lumber shed was built before he made application for a permit, and now under the law It will do the city council no good to refuse the naked-for permit, and the City Planning commission is power less to act, as it is only in the process of formation. When the commission has divided the city Into Kones em bodied into n city law, and Is fully functioning. I', inn prevent any such objectlonnblo building beln built, or If built, can compel It to come down At last week's council meeting when the city planning commission first brought the matter, up, the coun cil hud advised that the best thing to do under the clrcuriistanees. was for tho commission tp' riiTOt with Mr. Oagnon and endeavor to - have him make some alterations in the lumber shed so as to do away with much of its objectlonablo features.' . Inasmuch as no report has b3en re ceived yet as to the outcome of such conference, the council last night de cided not to act on the Oagnon ap plication until the commission re ported bnck, out of courtesy to the commission. In the meantime Gag non "has it" and "Is good for i'.." Tho following building permits were grunted by the council last night: Archie Ash. -for the Medford Ware house company, repairs to the Mason Khrmnn grocery building at a cost of $8000; David King, construction of n tn&O five-story bungalow on North Oak street, between Jackson and Clark streets; I).
