the lnrjypst cherry producers in j
the valley.

ment that the California l'ear
Growers . association had fixed

PROMISES TREAT
"Pop" Gates Has "It'
; "The Oregon Voter." In its lsue
this week, prints a . character
sketch -of CV R. (Pop) Oates or
this city, mentioned ns n candidate
1efurc the Republican nominating
committee, scheduled to meet Fri
day. July 5. , . t
The article is as follows:
"When it comes to .personality,
('. K. Gates of Medford radiates It
like the rising sun on a poppy bed
he Just naturally warms you Into
opening up. He would fill the
governor: chair to overflowing,
with an .abundance of genial
Physique. Light on his feet as a
toe diineor, brimming with energy,
quick In understand Inu, sympa
thetic as a listener, cordial, per
suasive No. he Is neither a bond
salesman niir a Wall street mag
nate. He made one fortune selling
hathtubs and another selling Fords.
His home town he served by be
coming its mayor without salary
but with success and re-elections
for as long as he felt he could
serve. His larger public service In
recent years bus been as a mem
ber of the state highway .commis
sion, to the affairs of which he
has given n considerable part of
his time. No man ever looked
more like a business governor
ought to look, and he has plenty
of inside to back up his imp res
six front.
' -Pup Gates, as he is affection
ately called by his intimates, Is
an Oregoniun by choice. He was
a business man of national repu
tation in his line before he came
here nearly twenty years ago, hav
ing been president of the Knnmel
ed Ware Manufacturers association
of the United States, re-elected six
times after bis first year's term
and seeing his handsome portrait
republished time and again in
bathtub, washstand and kitchen
sink trade papers. He also was
vice-president of the Soil Pipe
Manufacturers Association of
the United Slates, with his picture
published alongside of hollow iron
cylinders. It was a breakdown In
health that caused him to visit
Medford, and he became so enam
ored of the place that he sold out
his manufacturing interests, locat
ed thero in Mill and started air
automobile agency at once, at a
time when Fords were just rattling
In as a new kind of a road nui
sance. "Gates is n native of Indiana,
where the per acre yield of poli
ticians is the highest of any state.
He was a Christmas present, but
arrived one day early. December
24, 1871. and has been, prompt
ever since. His parents removed
to Winamac. Indiana, and he was
raised there, got some high school
education and earned his way
through a Logansport business col
lege. When sixteen, he actually
got . himself hired to teach a rural
school, thus proving what appear
ances can accomplish In impress
ing a country school 1'oard. But
his inclination was for business,
and he went to Chicago hunting,
for clerical work. He found it In
the statisticnl department of Chi
cago Kconomlc Gas company,, ris
ing during eight years to and ad
ministrative position in its accpujit-i
ing office. .
In 1 807, Gates removed to In
dianapolis to enter the employ Of
the McKlwalne Richards company,
wholesale plumbers' supplies, nnd
three years Inter was sent by that
company to Nohlesvillci Indiana, In
manage their enamel ware man
ufacturing plant. He became vice
president and general manager o(
the Union Sanitary Manufacturing
company, nnd rose to tho promin
ent position In the trade that we
have indicated above. In his full
dress suit at association banquets
everyone who didn't happen t o
know him asked who that hand
some gent was.
"Medford had just undergone its
first big boom when Gates arrived,
nnd even the advent of his num
erous nnd healthy family did not
save it from a heavy . decrease in
population. They city had been
paved enthusiastically but the as
sessments didn't yield enough to
meet tho Improvement bonds, end
the city government was as broke
ns If It had been located in Flor
ida. There was a million dollars
due ami nothing to pay It with
except real estate und future pros
pects. "'Pop' made himself part of
Medford, and he was there to stay.
The business men nnd taxpayers
turned to hlin to take the Job of
mayor. He did so on condition
that at the same election when his
name was submitted, a charter
amendment would be carried abol
ishing the salaries of mayor nnd
councilmen. The measure carried
almost unanimously nnd 'Pop"
was elected. Ie served six years
wlthbut salary or expense account,
from 1U1U to 11)22.
"Refinancing the city was the
first task. Improvement bonds had
been sold ns low as B0 In order
to get paving In front of every
lot before new lots were subdi
vided. Pop's administration suc
ceeded in refunding the city debt
by selling a big new bond Issue
at par, and was smart enough to
stick the bond buyer with the $1,
576 cost of engraving and print
ing the bonds, so the city got the
entire face value of the issue
without n nlckle discount.
"With the city's finances
straightened out. Pop got busy
with the chamber of commerce.
Re was the embodiment of the
spirit that has made Medford fam
ous, and he represented the com
munity In negotiations for Indus
tries and Investment. .Mwlfonl
started to grow again,. and when he
quit mayoring In 192 it was be
ginning to be . city of nulwtantinl
payrolls. The 1930 census finds It
one of the larger cities of the state
In population, and economic stntls
tics reflect Us prosperity. Pup's
Influence was in favor of commun
ity sentiment friendly to industry
and Medford Is justly proud ot Its
fine pnyroll Institutions.
When Pop came to Oregon, the
good roads movement had hardly
been conceived. He was one of Its
pioneer organizer. Jackson coun
ty was the find In Oregon tn pae
highways it ithe;id of Mult-
niimih In this ntt-r prise which
has transformed the state. lie
served as executive committeeman
f in the : first campaign for state !
; highway bonding, appeared before
' tho legislature to- promote good 1
roads and became a statewide fig-
ure In that cause. It was logical
, mm wneii ine mie uovernor rai
i person was reorganizing the state
highway commission In 3922 that
he would choose Gates as one of
j the three members. Gates brought
I to bear a wide business experience
along with his enthusiasm for
highway development, nnd by his
I services on the bonrd has demon
j stinted caliber.
j "So Impressed was Oregon by
i the Gates personality that he had
lived here hardly ten years before I
j he was mentioned for governor, i
j Naturally tolerant, he stepped into '
trouble by permitting himself to !
be boomed by Ku Kluxers in the
heydey of their power In but
gracefully stepped out again when
he discov ered the fanataclsm of
the movement. None who know
him hold this episode against him.
for he is the reverse typo from
tho bigot. His prominence has been
such ;: ho has been "among
those mentioned" during every
pre-primary gubernatorial pros
pecting since. Issuing a statement
that "I have decided not to be
come a, candidate this year" has
become a habit, with him. Usually
he didn't issue it Until after ho got
ft lot of mention, as h visibly
luxuriates in the sensation bask
ing in political sunshine.
"Genial, Pop is a joiner. He
Is a high up Mason, belonging jo
all the orders; has served numer
ous terms as Klks Club trustee: is
a prominent K. of P. nnd Dokle.

To the Kit i tor; A
Of bite i have noticed that sev
entl people of a distasteful state j
of mind have been airing their j
views hero on the streets in re- ,
gard to what they think of thej
fair little city of Medford.
Now, while I am not personal-j
ly acquainted with, any of these j
men. and will say that 1 have
been in a dozen different stales
in the last yea r, a nil ha ve been
in n number of the large cities, 1
ex pect t ha t M ed f ord will ra n k
nltout as far up in the column
as a city as some of these fellows i
would rnnk If placed In them. j
Now. Mr. Kditor, if you please.
I draw my conclusions from be
ing acquainted w'th pome people
that nre always using their ham-:
mer and are never satisfied with L
the w:sy other people handle their'
business. You know that Is one
of the easiest things In the world j
to be a knocker. . Some people !
let that habit grow on them and '
they just do overtime on It. They ;
start in the first thing In the
morning nnd keep it up until they j
fall asleep at night. 1
So far uh Medford 1m concerned j
I believe that it ranks as well as
any city in this western country
and in my travels I have heard a
good many able people spenll well j
of Medford. Of course there nrej
i'ome things that could In all ;
probability be improved on to ,
some extent, but that will never j
be brought about by some out
sider using n hammer.
In my short life I have been In !
several cities nnd I never found
any of them that thought so much
vow.

really believe that If we hnve no

Medford thai we con id help out a
whole lot more if we would help

come in contact with.
Mm! ford may not offer ns many

would like to make a living: doiu

there is n I ways a dull season in
