This move was made to comply with the legal requirements nccea-, t-ary to the city administration's plan lo-keeu tho road ulivaus an qaton-j Kibly koIiik concern until such time in -the futuro when a. possible pur ihnner is found. to operate it In cun-j ncction with tapping -the timber and , lnliierul. resources of the Applcguto section. . 1 . . r ; : J The suggestion nt last night's meeting thut tbo now railroad .com-1 patty of city officials be known us a holding? "copperutlon" 1 in view of the fact that it may eventually tup the Hlue-Ledge mine ' output, was speedily frowned down by the coun Vilmen wua airy pcrslflugc. Then the ;8prliusly ' minded coun cilmen unanimously voted themselves it tho board of .directors of the city holding company, - with 'a view to, traveling over the Southern J'aclfic, and other railroads tt the country on pusses, ' announced that the new compnny was ready frbm now on to oxchango thc usual courtesies with the other railroads. Fair enuff! The new-city railroad was organ ized with a number of amendments, relating to titles of officials, but us near as could bo fathomed out of the mass of new legislation, it has only tjie following- bona fide offic ials: Mayor O. O. Alenderfer, presi dent: City Attorney John- H. Cnrkin, secretary; City- Superintendent Chas. W Iavis, gcnerul manager; members ot the .council, . bourd of directors. An amendment or two made tho mayor us also the general truffle manager; City Keoordor M ose , A1 ford,. as secretary and first vice president;' the, city attorney us ulso general counsel, nnd the city super intendent as also general passonger t;nd freight traffic manager. i Another .legal, requirement that is necessitated -iri order that tho city, muy hold this roud, us planned,, is that every sixty days an engine must be , opernted over the lino between here und Jacksonville, to show tho world that It is a going concern. This requirement is being given very serious thought by the city officials, as to the best way to k fill It. The one engtno' in tho remain ing equipment of the road purchased by the city administration. Is In good operating, condition for such a Jour- ney of- serious import, Uut engine fuel and oil cost so much und then the city has no engineer; , To su vo money tho city officials have under consideration a plan to have thut public spirited body, tho Crater club, push -tho'' engine over) and buck 1 on tho track every 60 days, to shouts of encouragement from tho Uoturinns, Kiwnnians and L.inns running alongside. General Manager Davis, In looking over the itemized items of the road and equipment, us purchased, finds (hut many , tools have been swiped by, ovll minded citizens of Medford and the county seat while the sale was pending, or1 before, and that much of tho rolling' equipment has been damaged, and about all that is left in fair condition Is the cngino und several flat -cars. In Its purchase tho city also arquired ' several - parcels of real estate in Jacksonville, including the I old llurnum homo . in Jacksonville, nnd tho passenger and freight depots In tho county seat, from which the city Is already getting revenue, as tho dwelling la rented foX Mo a month und a contractor rents tho freight shed, for the sumo sum per month. , ,1 ' ' 1 . ; PARIS. Nov. 18. (A. P.) "The virtue of a, woman has never depend ed on tho longth of her hair," aid Muiisignor Dubois, ' cardinal arch bishop of Paris, when uskod his opin ion on bobbed hair. "lteligion Is no enemy of fashion," the prelate lidded. "Fashion is- tho mom widespread form of art, und Clod is the friend of truo nrtlsts. I loved tho fashions of bygono days, and the decorous charm of harmoni ously flowing draperies still appeals to me. Hut we must recognize that we have got past flowing draperies. Today is tho day of boldly cut low necked gowns, of too flimsy materials, of delicate stockings and too unsub stantial footwear. "Then there Is this mania some young women have of making them selves masculine! A woman loses much in wishing to resemble a man. All these excenses are to bo blamed. thut is certain, but excess in tho op posite direction Is just us blame worthy, l'lease. Hod, no archbishop of Paris will ever forbid the women of Paris to follow the fashions, with tact, moderation nnd intelligence! They have so much Intelligence, or rather good taste,. generally, that they are capable of wearing and making me admit -it, even somewhat short skirts!" This authorization, if .not consecra tion of short hair and skirts, with its marked absence of disapproval, has been hailed in Paris um another fem inist victory und as having been meant to dispel tho belief -that ecclesi astical authorities were opposed to theso latest expressions of woman's will.
