Iticidr-ntal to the ohl liliion home on West Main street near West Sixth street now being razed to make way for a new store build in'; and bungalow court to he erected by Mr. H. J. C'onroy, who purchased the Milton property some t inte ago. the removal of that long conspicuous structure, which the workmen who have been enuageil in the tearing down process for the past three days, have discovered that this old dwelling, built in 1 v.tT-lI'do, was exceptionally substantially built, as shown blts solid timbers and woikinausl ip both within and with out. Two of t he work in en expressed themselves to a reporter passing by yesterday that it was "a darn shame to tear down such a -ukm; build in." One of them insisted that the news gttt herer )io inside and see tor him self how suh stantially the house had been built of such excellent lumber. Later, on meeting A. S. Hilton, toinif-r owner all these years un til recently, and telling him what thev said. e leaned buck at his desk in thn Copcn home office and said witli some pride. "Of course, it shows how thev built houses In those days." Then Mr. Hilton, who at tho time he built the house and for years thereafter was ed itor and publisher ot' the Medford Mail, one of the predecessor of the Mail Tribune and later ab sorbed into the latter publication, fell to reminiscing h follows: "1 started to build that linns without the expenditure of a dol lar, built it and when it was com pleted still had not spent a dollar on it and was free from debt. You know the valley and county were full of mills, almost at every creek crossing in those days, and a num ber of the mills owed the Med ford Mail money, which naturally they paid in lumber. Also car penters, brick layers, etc., owed bills to the paper, and there lore 1 paid nothing for the founda tion work and carpentry work, etc.. as the carpenters and other: exchanged their work tor what they owed the paper. "The only thing I had to tmv nut money for was shingles, but even then 1 had to pay no direct money, for 1 owned an acre or so of land in the outskirts of the cilv. which I had taken in on a debt owed and I traded this land for shingles and carpenter work. 'i was three years hiiiiding this house in this wav. beginniiH' ft in 1N!i7 and completing it In 1100. "Oh. by the wav, ihere is an other interesting tact about that house. It was the first house in Medford lo be wired for electric ity." WASHINGTON. July l!t. 'T1) Chairman Work of the republican national committee today wired congratulations to liny n.
