MEDFORD 'S GREATEST ASSET

ymi iliilii'l yon missed ,-i nod feiitttrc story, with nil excellent
moral.
.Mr. nnd .fV. I'hefrley decidf-d to sell out in own find settle
in ( 'iiliforniii. They motored wosl over the northern route, and
on the last Icj; nf their .journey .stopped in .Medford over night.
Tlio weather was. hot, they were liivd nnd thirsty. IlaviiiK
foinnl driiikinu water n serious piohlem on llnir eross-eonntry
piliriinaf;e,' they iiliiiiiod if Medford water was pure anil salV to
drink.
' They were told it. was. not only safe to drinU, lint was hy
official analysis the finest drinking water on the I'aeilie eoast
Hill per cent pure, piped direct from the mountains "a moun
tain spriiij,' in every home.'
They looked at it rnimini; from the 'handier of Commerce
fountain clear lis crystal, the hasin where it flowed .-as clean
as a hound's tooth. They drank their fill and found it lasted as
t'ood .1s"it looked. " .
"What wonderful water!" t hoy hnlh remarked.

refreshing sleep. In the morninir, there was Medford wal'-r
again, in the lull, clear a.s a hell,
"What wonderful water!"
common consent they decided
deserved further investignl ion.
So they looked ahont, tallied
impressed hytwhat they saw and
arrival, had secured a ivsiiliMiee
this I heir permanent home. , .
, ' . .
AS AMOVIC slated this story points an irxeellent moral. In
, fact two of them. First it demonstrates the practical vain"
or .Medlord water, in securing
into hhar.p relief the contention so fiviiienl ly made by this
pftpcr, that .Medford is overlooking one of its best bets, when il
fails to place ornamental drinking fonnlains and rest rooms on
the Pacific, highway.
What if Mr. and .Mrs. I'hogley bad not decided to spend
the night in Medford, as scores of tourists undoubtedly do. 'I'Jit-y
'would have drivcil on soiith' eompetely ignorant of this city
and what it offers. California would havp secured a new family,
.Medford would have lost one. , , ,
How many potential .Mr. and Mrs. Phegleys are passing
through .Medford every day Certainly hundreds of them. At
tractive fountains and rest rooms
not slop, all of theni certainly would not make all of them
permanent residents hut they would malic it impossible for
them to continue I heir .journey ami NOT KNOW THAT WA)
FOHI) HAS TIIK ISKST DKlXKIXtl WAT Kit AND TIIK HKST
WATKK SVSTK'M ()Nr TIIK KXTII.'K PACIFIC! COAST.
And n. certain percentage of them perhaps a higher per
eenlage than most of its suspect would decide with Mr. and
Mrs. I'hegley that a place with such water, is the plaee in which
they wish to live., , ' . .
.
",AN .voiiiiinagiiu! any city in Ciilifoniin with siitdi nn nsiset lis
..Medford possesses in its water, saying practically nothing
alioul it, loi-cing tourists and other visitors to prowl around and
fifld it out, for themselves! :
' ' ' '''
UTTERLY INCONCEIVABLE I
WI1V if Kos Angeles had u water system like Medford, no
" one could step across the stale line without knowing it
not only knowing it, but having. it dinned into his ears and shot
iu'lo'h'is eyes, as long as he stayed within a radius of !(( miles.
We. laugh at l.os Angeles humdingei-isiii.. And it ie carried to
extremes often fareial lengths down there, lint just as we
would like to see less of it in l.os Angeles, we would like to see
more of it nj here, particularly as far as telling the world about
our water supply is concerned.

Here is another piece or l.vpieal tlemaijooic hunenmhe pvae
ticnlly the sole product of the Cpper House of Congress these
days,
p O.VK knows better than the erudite Senator Moses, thai
in withhohlhio; secret eorrespoudence voncernin this treaty,
President Vloover is not only entirely within bis constitutional
rights, biu jh. following out the tniditiou and pnictioi of every
('resident, since the time of Washington, .
Treaty making is the rresi'ilents business, NOT the Senates.
The Senale has nothing to do with negotiating, writing or sign
ing treaties. All the Constitution provides is that before be
coming elfective a treaty must bo ratified by the Senate.
IK IT were not for the popular ignorance regarding this treaty
mid treaties iu general, which the New Hampshire senator
profeHs-es to rgvef, hfl would never have tlnred to talk as he has
since the treaty debate started. He and Hiram .Johnson and all
the rest of. them would have been laughed out o? court by a
people properly enlightened.
Senator Moses is very thankful the people of this country
know so little about treaty making, ami pay so lillle attention to
it. This ignorance allows him and his fellow t nuspirators, to
pester the President please the Hig Navy nabobs, and garner
some fortuitous political profit for themselves.
A more perfect example ,of hypoeriey, insincerity DOWN
RRiltT D1SHOXKSTY than Senator Moses exhibited in his
attack on the President and the
imagined. It struck the low point in the moral decline of tlrv
Ppper Mouse, for the present sessionwhich is about as dam

Pid they recall, lh Colonel con
tinued, how the leMv hint of a

Iiies had been -sufficient to fend

that nearby wa a place where tim
ber was everywhere, where streams
ran with water all the summer
long, where the climate permitted a
miner to enjoy his wnrff, and where
thnro was a tenth of the- mineral
wealth there U right here In south
ern Oregon ?
They knew, and their grins
showed they were appreciating the
Colonel's point.
Why then; he demanded, didn't
(he same thing happen here?

The decision, it may be believed,
will meet with Ihe entire approval
of the ex-sefvice men. although, of
course, Ihe ex-serVice men as guests
would probably be .polite enough
not to criticize the appearance of
their hosts even If they were wear-.

If there, were, this business of pigeon-holing

rather an old story.

Perhaps something of this sort
may have been in the minds of the
Maker merchants when they made
their decision. Or, It may lie that
they lt, in the light of general
beard culture, that the absence, of

itself distinctive.
