Siiiri- then we linve received .reliuble inl'or Hint ion, 'ronfirmiiiK the truth of this report. What iulerests an liehilid tliis'Htirvey, we don't know, lint that mie.li ns survey is lieing made efin lie neeepted iif an PRtiililished ffict. In Portland a (fronp of Federal judges are eonsideriiit; the pib teBt of the 1'uion '-Pacific ruilroad acainst obeying the order to construct a cross-state railroad, from Crescent to Crane. If any one .will 'look at-tlic map they will see that such'a ernss-stnt line would pass tlirouj;li an unsettletl ami unprodiit-tive area, wliereas a cross-state line from Medl'ord to Klamatli would puss tiii'oilKli, what is eonlpnl'iitiVely, a settled aiid productive one..! In other words, if Oregon is to have a cross-state railroad, the logical route would be from Klanintli to the Const via Med ford; rather than from Crane to Crescent, iiltbnti;li no one in Oroifon would object if both lines were constructed. , . . .' .';' '.', ' '" ' THE sifuation :3al!s attention once more to ol't-repeate.ed ril uior tliat the Great Northern, when its connection with Kan Francisco is sompleted via the Western Pacjfic, intends to con struct a feeder line from Klamath trt Medford, and eventually continue this line to tidewater, probably at Crescent City. We have no inside information reyardiinr this rumor. We don't know whether it is based upon fancy or fact. But WE DO KNOW such a rumor is in harmony will) the facts; with the ioj'ic of the situation, and with tho announced policy of the Hill lines t.) develop any territory in which they enter. AND PECACSK OK THIS WE UEDIEVE THE TIME HAS COME FOR MEDFORD TO GET TOO ETHER ON HOMT2 DEFINITE PROGRAM, TO DO EVERYTHING WITHIN ITS POWER, , TO 1UUNG THIS RAILROAD DBVELOPM EXT (ABOUT. ; , .'. ' .'' ' : WE 'KNOW sometliiiiK about, public rtpiiii'oit in Southern Oi'e on, and we know that the sentiment in favor of (jetting tic Hill linoH- in here is simply ovoryvbelmiiif;. '. For everyone rnlixes that such action would do more for the. growth mid de velopment of Medford and the Ropue River valley, than any thing that could be iuuiKined Not -only would railroad compe tition he desirable, and nil East-West transcontinental connec tion he in valuable ; but such construction would make Medford Plfi fliBTriUuting center for the richest area of pine and fir, i-e- mnmiiif; in the United States.,, It is, we lielievc, well within the bounds of eonservative statement to say, that if the Great North ern, should decide to build to Medford tomorrow, its population would he doubled within less than ten years. ' RAILROADS miiy hot be linmait; biit the men who control them are. And the thought that occurs to us nt this time is this:. ..',(',.,-.'.. Everyone in Metlford knows liow eager the people of this community lire to get the Groat Northern, lmt,'ns fnr ns we are informed, the ottuiialH of tho Great .Northern DON'T KNOW IT. It. would certainly do no hnrm, and blight do great good, if the people 'of' Medford, through some organization, perhaps tlje Chamber of Commeree or the Central Civic Council, should let these olficiiilK know what Hie local sentiment is, and "incident. ally what the present find potential resources of this section of Oregon are. . . , ., As flen Franklin remitrkcd, "God helps those who help themselves," It appear to us the time has come for the people ol" Med fori to get busy helping themselves. The facts noted above demonstrate that something is afoot. A little definite aggressive action now, majf mean all the difference between Medford and "Southern Oregon going ahead "great guns'' or .standing still perhaps going backward.. ., THE LAW OF HOW tlmt old law of aoipeiisation works! It often seems ns immutable as the law rif gravity. For doesn't it demand a spiritual balance,. as gravity demands a .physical one? Every now and then we see people who seem to get all the breaks. They are on the top of the wave all the time. '.Others get no breaks at all., The latter are as persistently '.pursued by misery as the former by joy. So we concludu there is no justice in the world we merely play certain parts as Shnkespenre claimed; one has a happy, carefree role, another an nphappy tragic one, nnd flint's that. ' BPT'is it? Doesn't the hnsis for that belief lie in the fact, 'that all the fuels are not known, and that when all the Diets regarding the life of arty individual ARE known, that old tfiw of iioinpensHtioii strikes what approximates a balance!.. M'ebbc not. Hut a story just came in oyer' tho wire which supports such n hypothesis. It gave a close-up of Knute Roijknc, who says he is tired of acclaim, tired of being patted on the back, tired of banquets, 'tired of football and never wonts to see another game. All he .wants is to spend three weeks at the Mayo elinie'and try to get back bis health again. It inoa'ns quite a fin ancial loss, but what gootl is money, asks Knute, if you feel so rotten you can't enjoy it. 1 , '.

J intimated that waa, baloney; - although I .still concede Dr. Kellogg Is- generally right Jn whatavor :-ha says, about health. One ;with jtxy type of .mind dimply cannot understand why .it is safe enough for nature to cool the skin by evaporation, yet ."highly perll- niifl" :if one tukes-advantage of a cold draft of . air. to help nature, I Hhicerely :think . that Dr. Kellogg Ik just, confusing his inborn .fancies tradition with, plain common- stmse . have. .1 am fairly certain thnt he- can cite no scientific or experimental evidence to. support; the complex he so . persistently entertains about this. ' - .n It is true painfully ' true; that when - one gets d hit overheated thru -exertion too- sudden .cooling as by it cold "draft or neglect to put on -one's sweater. Is likely -to pro duce much -stiffness, soreness aml( lameness In the muscles which have been -so vigorously used, nut this has no bearing whatever on so-called "colda' or "taking cold", and it, Is clear that Dr. Kellogg does not refer to this as the "hlfeh ly perilous cold draft. There is nothing perilous about such sore muscles. This time the good poctor does better, tho I 'still feel his teaching is not so good. In his latest anim adversion he tells uh that "women wear much less clothing -than men, und so, suffer much less from over heating, especially in warm weath er, a common cause of summer colds nnd sinusitis." I contend that overheating is not a cause of sinusitis, and while I don't know just what the Doctor means' by "summer colds" I ven ture to say that no -one ever caught one frum, overheating. - But. bless your -fleur. hearts, the good Doctor didn't .mean Just that.-. What he meant haaveti only knows, but he hastens to add to the foregoing obfuscatlon: "Of course, the- cold -does , not come directly from the overheat ing;." - ' I should any not. There are not a million d.ogs there at bei5V there ure only our dog and the neigh bor's cur. ' Of . course -colds don't come di rectly, .or If 1 may. slip .in a word here, Indlreotly, from overheating, but let the Sage finish his argu ment: ' - 'A .cold. ,u alnusltls is an acute Infection.' There ' you have . it. Simple enough when you know how. So is diptherla an acute Infection and I hnve never met a live doctor who had the temerity to tench tb.it overheating or chilling has any thing to do with diphtheria. Now Dr. Kellogg takes the floor to put' ah end to this nonsense: - "A cold, a sinusitis, is an ncute Infection. ' The germs are already on the spot, but asleep, so to spenk. Overheating and after chilling., lower the resistance and 1 awaken the germs to activity." Ah, that melody. w "TIb "The Old Hokum Dunftem'' 'the docs sing 6 well. . .
