ANOTHER OPEN LETTER
Bng a Further Reply to the "Man or Mouse" Attack of the Daily News
Upon W. E. Phipps
Tlic Uuily Ners, Mc-tlfora's pro-jfiirbuw Hliwt. d.-livt-red iisoiml iiltiick on m in i's
iss.u. of October 2.1, under lite title of "Man or -Mouse." This nssHi.lt o.-eupie.i '''"
ter columns of the front page. It demanded un immediate answer, under threat of
jury proceedings, tl tendered the mime front pa ire space for niy reply.
The same duy 1 banded in a short response which the editor hi the next issue iMriisijrn
ed to the 'forum" instead, of the front pajre that he bad offered, and in an abusive editor
ial deiiii ine'further spaee in his paper, unless my contribution should meet the condi
tions imposed in the "Mail or Mouse" article.
What were these conditions? In the article motioned, the Daily News reproduced a
political add which I bad run in the Mail Tribune, aud-in order that the reader may jr,!
the "low down" of this mutter, it seems necessary to retiiote it, its follows:
"WHY IS THE DAILY NEWS SUPPORTING JUDGE THOMAS?
"The Daily News was launched as nn independent newspaper. Its editor
is an avowed democrat, and two years uiro was elected chairman of the demo
cratic county central committee, and in that caiiipaik'ii at least pretended to
support the nominees of that party. Many persons have Wondered why it is
supporting (q M. Thomas for circuit .iudtie, and it is our purpose to state a few
facts taken from the record, which may throw some -light on tltsubject.
"Two members of the N'ews Publishing Company last spring organized and
arc now members of the City Sanitary Service, Inc. This corporation was or
ganized to handle the3 garbage of Medford, and on March 6, 1)2S, was by the
city council awarded an exclusive contract, commonly called "the garbage
grab." Hy this contract nnd the ordinance putting it into effect, this corpora
tion wag given the right to collect'all the. garbage front all hotels, restaurants,
stores and residences in iiic city, without paying n cent for this valuable ref
use matter which it tises in fattening bogs, and was thereby also authorized to
make a stiff charge against the owners of the garbage For hauling if away.
. . "liefore tho ordinance and contract went into effect, two farmers who had0
" previously entered-, into garbage contracts with the restaurants and hotels,
brought an injunction suit in Judge Thomas' court attacking tins contract and
ordinance.
o "On April 27, Judge TJiomas decided the garbage case against the farm
ers, and sustained the monopoly of the City Sanitary Service, Inc., and the
ease is now on appeal in the supreme court, o o
"l"p to that time, the Daily News bad never uttered a word in favor of
Judge Thomas, but shortly afterwards it came out hi a strong editorial endors-.
ing him, and ever since has been Judge Thomas most ardent supporter in the
district."
0 DRAW GUILTY INFERENCES o
From this statement o facts from the records, she Daily News, by Lee T,ttlc, Mana
ging Kditor. City Sanitary Service, Inc., by C. A. Swigart. Secretary-Treasurer, Mayor
and City Council, City of Medford, by O. 0. -Menderfcr, Mayor, who signed and sponsor
ed the "Man or Mouse" attaek, drew their own innuendoes and conclusions, as fllows:
"The purpose of that advertisement was apparently to accomplish one or
o more of the following objects:
To injure Judge Thomas, by insinuating that he had debauched his pcrson-
- al honor and the integrity of the Court for personal or political ends;
o
- or
o To injure the Daily News, by insinuating that it had sold its poljjicitl opin
ions and support in exchange for unvoirrantcd judicial favors granted one of its
stockholders: or '
o o
To injure the City Sanitarv Service, Inc., bv insinuating that that eoinpansj,
o
or any of its stockhojders, had been a party to the fraudulent securing of mu
nicipal, contracts; . or 0 ' ' , o
To injure the Mayor ayd Council of tho City of Mcdfortl, by insinuating
that they had bcfjii guilty of the fraudulent or illegal grautiiig of . munici
pal contracts." Q
o o GARBAGE GANG TRY BLUFF.
Bear in mind these arc not my conclusions, but the interpretation of the three parties
interested in this garbage contract. And from the further threats contained, it is evi
dent tbathis "Aran or Mouse" diatribe was an attempt tobulldozc and mtimdute me in
to an aisj'ccment with these innuendoes or into a retraction of the plain facts set out in the
advertisement. Because of my refusal to be thus bluffed and bullied, and because of my
offer to cooperate in a grand jury investigation of this whoft garbage mess, as stated in
my "Opcnol'cply," the Daily News has denied inc access to its columns. 0 Q
And it will be noted that while Tuttlc, Swigart and Alenderfcr deduct the implica
ting inferences stated, neitsl'r of them attempts to deny the statenrilits of the advertisc
meiit.O There is 9 old adage that "A guilty conscience needs no accuser," and another
$lat "The guilty flee when, no man pursueth."
PEOPLE NOT INFORMED
And iu conclusion let mo say that ver? few peoJe of Medford have read this garbage
ordinance or know the far-reaching and evil effects Of the "garbage grab" entered in
to between the present city administration and the City Sanitary Service, In. In a re
cent issue. of tho local css this new garbage concern boasts of "a 'S)'v increase in busi
ness, much of which is due to refuse which is being hauled away from the l king house
district." q
This means the garbage compaig is grabliing all the cull, rcfutg pears and apples, which
under the ordinance it is entitled to do. It also lias the right to take all of the offal anil
garbage from butcher shops, ejAjieries and dairies, and the market wastes of animal and
vegetable matter from the stores ai9i'shops. Under this ordinance and coOract, it not on
ly has the right to take all this valuable feed for lining, but to charge the owners KSt- haul
ing it away. It has the right to demand the garbage nnd rubbish, even t the . ashes
thrown on gardens, from every owner, tenant or occupant of any dwelling,' and j cry
fi-eper f any hotel, restaurant, boarding house or other building, in this ty, and l
make a stiff charge for taking it away. O
INVITED TO READ ORDINANCE
If you doubt this go to the City HccoP.'r and demand to see City Ordinance Num
ber -.'L'T;'. Read it carefully' and dwell awhile on Stion !J, which reads as follows:
".Section !. Whereas the City has given unto the City SanitarQcrvice.
Inc., the exclusive right, franchise or privilege of collecting, gathering and
hauling over the streets or the City of Medford, Oregon, all garbage, a or
or rubbish accumulating therein.
It shall be unlawful for any person, persons, firm or corporation other
than the City Sanitary Service Inc., to collect, gather or haul over the greets
of the City of Medford, Oregon, any garbage, ashes or rubbish accumulating
therein."
You cannot, therefore haul your own garbage over one the city streets without be
ing subject to ti fine of not exceeding 100. IX). It is all turned over to the City Sanitary
Service, Inc., giving it a monopoly worth a fortune. ; 'i ' '
You think ir won't gougo Qui! Look what it did to SpcnccrO" Wclty. These farm
ers each had a bunch of hogs, and only garbage to faten them.' They had written con
tracts with the hotels and restaurants of Medford for all garbage from these eating pla
eesor n term of years. They were licensed by the Dairy and Food Commissioner of
Oregon to feed garbage to swine. They were paying for this garbage and moving it c.tch
night, in covered containers and in the most sanitarv manner. ' "
DECIDED AGAINST FARMERS
The City of Medford and City Sanitary Sen-ice, Inc., by decision of Judge C. M.
Thomas in the Circuit Court, broke these written contracts, took all of this garbage, which
compelled these farmer!) to dispose of their hogs as best they could.
If this monopoly should win in the Supreme Court, which may the law and common
honcKtv forbid tlinn nil I .,un ..v in tit n;ttv..i,u -r.ir..H.i :.. t ....i. j-i... .t.-
- .... . .u.. w vi .iiviiiviu i. iu"iv viu, inc gar
bage gang have you shanghaied !
And it is because I am the attorney, working in the interests of the people against
what I consider this most unjust decision, that I am thus assailed by this pio-garbag-s
sheet, the Daily News. But I now warn this garbage gang tha,t thry better slow up on
pcrsounl abuse, nt lens) as a-'ninsl myseir. Tir season is closed. .
