:and who never lias been connoctcd
wlih any city administration of

j In short, Mr. Kohl's address pur
ported to show that Medford Is

in a very bud wuy for propor mu

i And how!
Why, If elected mayor, he would
give tho Medford public an un
biased, impartial, uuboHsed, eco
nomical , efficient nnd "honest"
business man's administration, and
not a "business administration."
Ho sulil ho, himself, ovor tho ulr

would fill a page or more of this

reasonable space, and yet at the

readers Mr. Kohl's Ideas on how

Attention Citizens of Medford
Citizens, especially the new ones in our
nmlst will be interested to know that ever
since the .water commission made its investi
gation and decided that Uig Butte Creek and
Springs was the best available source from
which to obtain Bedford's city water supply
the Fehls and Uowloys have endeavored in ev
ery possible manner to keep the city from ob
taining this water, even going so far as to bring
a number of law suits against the citj.
In the past five years they have brought the,
following two injunction suits against the city
to enjoin Medford from obtaining this water.
Oct. 11, 1922, Isabelle Rowley vs. City of Medford et al. v t
April 21, 1923, Isabelle Rowley vs. City of Medford, Water Commission et al.
Being beaten in these injunction suits in which they tried to enjoin the city from obtaininr
this water they have recently brought two more suits, one for $100,CO0 against the Eagle Point Ir
rigation District and the other for a quarter of a million dollars against the City of Medford as
follows:
Oct. 13, 1927, Isabella Rowley and Arthur S. Rowley vs. Eagle Point District for $100,000."
' Oct. 13, 1927, Isabelle Rowley and Arthur S. Rowley vs. City of Medford for $250,000.'
. .We do not know what interest Mr. Fehl has
in. these alleged "llowley rights," 'though he
lias made the statement to the water commis
sion, council and others that lie has an irrevoc
able assignment of sonic interest in them, but.
welo know he and his paper have continuous
ly opposed the water commission and council in
obtaining this water for the city and building
the new water system which' the' citizens voted.
MR. AND MRS. HOMEOWNER AND
TAXPAYKR, you have bonded yourself for al
most a million dollars for this new water sys
tem, which you are paying for both in taxes and
in monthly water rentals. Do you want to put
Mr. Fclil and his associates, who. are bringing
these suits against the city, in charge of your
city water system f
Do you think that after he has brougl'A these
suits to enjoin the city from obtaining tlic Dig
Butte water ami later sued the city for a quar
ter of a million dollars that lio will give up try
ing to get your money for the alleged liowley
rights, just because he has beeu elected mayor?
