' - All merchants were requested to Hrranjce green nnd gold window decorations in welcoming members of the Oregon Federation of Husi ness and ProfeHslonal Women's Clubs who will attend the annual state convention in this city, Fri day, Saturday und Sunday of this week. ' C. T. Baker, secretary, discussed n retail service for merchants which will be considered by a com mittee of business men. Tho fact that numerous complaints have been received recently concerning the local traffic regulations, was also brought up. Tentative plans for a good-will ttade tour were explained by E. M. Wilson, head of a special commit tee, and the merchant!) present agreed to co-operuto in some form of excursion which would extend Into northern California. No def- j inlte date was sot for this event. President Jtobert Strung sug gested that the merchants should ' manent promotion of the pear in dustry. Kven nature seems to fuvr this locality. The absence of bliicht and other damaging fac tors make a very happy compari-J son with other districts. Grow ers of this valley can't help get tine results when there Is such unanimity of effort. The CIrow ers' usHoclation, the Truffle nsso elation und all people of th valley seem to be working to gether to promote the pear in dustry." Markets ;hh1. Hpenklnic of unemployment, Mr. Kimball stated. "I have noted very little of the so-called effects of unemployment in New York centers. There may have been much suffering in some lines, but certainly not in the food markets. The winter and spring markets have been better than uverage In comparison with the great quanti ties of fruits and vegetables New York has been called upon to sell. "This year they are selling con siderably more pears late in New York and yet the prices uro hold ing up. Of course the big thing for tho pear Industry Is to de velop a consumption of peurs In other markets equal to that In New York. It Is not good busi ness to have Chicago soiling only five to 10 cars a week at prices lower than are received In New York, where 75 to 100 curs art- sold each week." With the California fteason 10 days to two weeks early this year and tho Itogue Itlvor valley sea son normal, proper marketing conditions uro seen hy Mr. Kim bull us one of the most favorable features of this year's outlook. The fruit from the Pacific Coast. ho points out, will bo. arriving at the most advantageous time. Co-oMratioii SucctHNllng. As chnlrmun of the New York pear committee, which hna har monized the work of selling agen cies In the east In a most happy and profitable wny, Mr. Kimball added. "Possibilities of co-opera tive effort have brought more definitely Into light tho spirit shown here In Med ford to carry tho pear business of tho Rogue Itlver valley, much further to ward success, than If this good feeling did not exIM." Mr. Kimball plans t be In Ituicue Ulver valley for several duyo. He will then leave tor in apple districts of Washington to complete his two months' etuy on the coast, then return east to sell the first cars of early fruit, which will be arriving the first part of June from California.

STORY 2 (Continued from Pago 1) con, and it was finally decided unanimously that an effort should be made to move the county seat from Jacksonville to Medford and f oresta II the ex penses of the Im provements to the old courthouse property, providing suitable ar rangements could be made with the city of Medford for a court house site as well as conveniences for holding court In the Interim of the construction of a new court house. These matters were tuken up with the chamber of commerce of the city of Medford, with the mayor und common council of the city of Medford and the members of the county court. A committee was appointed to Investigate, the urthouse at Grants Pass, as well the courthouse at Klamath Falls, and to learn whut the ap proximate cost of the new court house would be. It wus ascertain ed that a courthouse suitable for the county of Jackson could lie; erected for less than $300,000, j which estimate was made by Mr. I Stuart of Medford, a reliable con tractor and builder, ub well us sev-j era I others. The proposition was then taken ! up with the mayor and common council of Medford, ns well as with the members of the chamber of j commerce, and u proposition wus i made to tho county that in case ai courthouse was to be built in the j city of Medford, that the city of! Medford would furnish a suitable site for the same, which sito was I to be accepted and approved by the county court, and the city of Med ford further agreed that, pending '. the erection of the new courthouse , they would furnish the necessary J county offices nnd courthouse fa- duties for a nominal considera tion of $1.00 a year for a period of five years. There was no men tion mado of the particular loca-; tlon of tho courthouse within the city of Medford, and It was agreed that the mattor of the selection of the site should be vested In the county court In order to avoid any . conflict that might arise should there be a controversy as to what portion of the city would he selected for courthouse pur poses, nnd to avoid any contro versy the' mutter of tho selection of the Hlte should bo determined solely by the county court from any tract or tracts or location that might he made by the mayor' and common council of 'the city of Medford. The city of Medford has fully carried out its promises mado to the county and hus been very gen erous: and fair In carrying out Its agreement. The city of Medford has now offered to the county us a sito, the hldck of land now occu pied by the Washington school building, which building has been condemned for school purposes. It adjoins the city park and Is nearly opposite the Medford Hotel and is on tho road leading from Medford to Jacksonville, and tho county court has unanimously selected that site. it appears however, that some parties are attempting to override the agreements so made between the county court, the chamber of commerce of the- city of Medford, the liar association, and tho mayor and common council of- the city of Medford by seeking to take away the prerogative of tho county court and vesting the selection of a site In the people of tho county at large, nnd preclpltato a contro- versay which was sought to be avoided through the resolutions adopted by all parties In the said matter. It seems to me now, as It did at the time of the early negotiations. that the county court should have the exclusive right and authority to choosn tho courthouse sito and I believe the county court Is in a better position to select the site for tho best Interests of the county at largo than a few Individuals who have some local or selfish Interest In tho matter and who expect some gnln or advantages In the selection of a sito beneficial to their partic ular Interests. I believe in keeping good faith with the county court In the mat ter of Its choice of location of the proposed courthouse. K. U. niUCKIS Ashland, Oregon, sfefi!
