LOPEfll
OF
I1U
(SON
The formal open in p of the new en
larged quartern -of tho Jackson Coun
ty bank will le heltl tomorrow iifter
noon and evening from 4 to ii p. rn.
In tho1. year when Mctlford
boasted of a population of kIx hun
dred men, women and chftdron, wlit'n
the Southern Pacific depot occupied
a commandirg place directly lo the
middle of what Itt now the beginning
of West kfn'll Htreet and when only
farms could bo soon from tho gniHMy
bunks of Hear creek, In that portion
of the town that 1m now deHlgnuted uh
ariuHH the neck, the Ja kHon County
bunk was organized ml founded.
rieginnlng now its thirty-seventh
year only one busineHs remains on
Main .street that was flourishing at
that time. Strang's drug store has
the honor of being the oldest business
in the town with tho Jackson County
bank ranking a close second. The
bank was founded by the late W. I.
Vawter who was its active manager
for over thirty years. The business
was started in the room now housing
teddy's new Jewelry rftor'e which In
those early days was an entirely dif
ferent looking structure. A wooden
portico or awning extending from tho
front of tho building to the Blilewalk
providing a sheltered harbinger in the,
pioneer days for tobacco ehiKvers.
In 190ii the building now occupied
by the bank was constructed. It was
supposed at that time that the new
quarters would answer the purpose
for at least a century. How rapidly
the community as well as southern
Oregon lias developed is evidenced by
the fai t that the bank has more than
doubled In size in the lust seventeen
years making the old quarters entirely
Inadequate.
Believing that Jackson county Is on
the threshold of a very rapid advance
ment,.. j:uijy last spring the directors
of the bank decided to completely
remodel the banking rooms. Installing
new fixtures and vaults and doubling
the space occupied. The new vaults
aro of the latest approved construc
tion being 18 Inches of double rein
forced concrete and lined with a half
Inch of steel boiler plate. There are
nine tons of reinforcing teel also
used Irr tho construction. Tho new
vault door for the safe deposit depart
ment measures 1 1 inches in thtckuess
over all and weighs approximately
lU.uup pounds.
The banking room floor was orig
inally three feet from the sidewalk

HONG KONG. Dec. 21. (By Asso
ciated Press): ' Dr. Sun Yat-Sen, head
of the Canton. government, today tele
graphed to Ramsay MaeDonaldi lead
er of the British labor party, asking
him to "bring to the notice of the
British people and particularly the
workers, tho grave situation which
the British representatives ;in China
mainly have been Instrumental in
creating at Canton." ' ' 1
"My government is being threat
ened with acts of war by an! interna
tional force of nearly a Bcoreof cruis
ers and gunboats armed with. rfoldiers,
who have already landed at Shameen
(the foreign section of Canton where
the administrative offices of other
nations are located.)
"This Is the work of the diplomatic
body at Peking, done at the instance
of the British minister on advice of
tho senior consul at Canton 'who is
the British consul general and inspec
tor of maritime customs who is a
British national."
Sun reminds the British labor lead
er that China, admittedly one of the
richest markets for British goods,
cannot be secured by a gunboat policy
of old diplomacy altho It can be won
by a policy alining at the capture of
Chinese good will.
