W. Smiley, whose , land is traversed by the proposed! road, will be left in the hands of j 12 men. drawn by tha circuit court j from the regular jury list of tho county. 1 The county court proposed that, inasmuch as the court and the i three property owners could not i reach an agreement, tho matter be left to a board of arbitration of either five men or seven men or the jury plan, vhlch they accepted. J. W. Smiley said, I don't want the road, but if there Ik ho other way, the jury is agreeable to mo." The other two followed his lead. Mr. Swing and Mr, Sack both maintained that they could mako the changes In their property and buildings at the amount offered by tho road viewers, and not loso money. While the county court made no definite statement, they -let it bo understood that they intended to build the road, and that any other route was unfeasible. . Tho three complainants said they realized the importance of the road to the Sam's Valley district, .but thought It should be routed in a way that would not cut. Swing said that ho figured he should be paid $2090 for damages. The road viewers appraised his damage at 1200 and there was al most as wide n discrepancy In the other two. Under the plan adopted, a jury of 12 will bo drawn, under tho direction of the circuit Judge. The jury will then retire to the scene. view the property, and return to the jury room for, deliberation and a decision. All concerned agreed to abide thereby. It is expected that the jury will be drawn this week. County Judge Sparrow said that upon receiving the decision a finnl ruling on the building of the road "might bo made in two months, and might bo made the day after."

Reilly Knows His Old Division "42," He Say IS VALLEY NEED The Rogue River valley without a suitable airport to accommodato the lingo couunercliil pianos, and with an airport which will fall to meet the demands of the ever growing air travel will bo as dead and as much removed from the nialn paths of commerce as tho vll lago of Jacksonville, once the most thriving business center in Orogon, became without a railroad. This was the. picture painted by liill Gates, Medford man, who spoke brlofly to Klwanlans recently ask ing the moral support ot Ashland in the effort being made by Mod ford to secure the passage of a bond issue which would enable Medford to build an airport second to none on the Pacific coast. And the speaker was right.1 Already tho huge "commercial planes which are rapidly becoming moro and more common, have been forced to discontinue their stops in Medford, landing at Montague, Cat., Instead. Tho Medford field, they explained, was too small in sufficient lo accommodate the planes and, while they had mi de aire to cut the Hoguc River valley off their route, thoy must bo pro vided with a suitable and safe, land ing field. The evolution In modes of travel has been Interesting and always communltlca which failed to be pro gresslve In means of transportn- tion have paid dearly fur their lack or progress. t Medmrd is taking the right step in her efforts toward hocomlng tho metropolis of southern Oregon in seeking to provide for the fast-don veloplng air transortation. It Is not merely Medford but the entire Rogue River valley that avia tion development will benefit. Kor as Medford prosperB so will ArIi land prosper, and vice versa. This is without doubt an air-minded age and the communities which get In on the ground floor of aerial de velopment will be the cities which will reap the greatest benefit from this vast development which is cer tain to come within the next few years, Ashland Tidings. . :.
