"0 wad some Pow'r the giftie
gie ui
To see oursels as others see us!
It wad frae monie a blunder
free us
And foolish notion."
The people of Medford and
Jackson county now have that
power the power of the press,
The following extract from
the Grants Pass Courier,
merely one of many examples,
throughout the state, showing
how others how our neighbors
SEE US:
"Medford, once the metropolis
of southern Oregon of late has
fallen from her high estate , . .
For many yeara Medford has been
the city that grew and prospered
and got the things oho wanted
. . , Now the place has achieved
ststewlde reputation for being
all buacle bound by warrlhg fac
tions to the point that nothing
can be accomplished. Man after
man In public life has been
marked for attack and has been
pulled down.
"This is the stage setting for
' what may be the purgative, the
lateat and we hope the final
attack that on Judge Norton.
"Norton Is one man In a hun
dred thousand, so removed' from
petty suspicions, so elevated In
publlo esteem, so :re from any
taint of unfair dealings of any
nature that the attack can hard
ly help but be thrown back upon
the attackers with, maiming
force.
"If that can be the outcome,
then It will be a case of the
maimers maimed. The cure of
the harmful Medford situation
will be on the way.
"The patient will be on the
way to recovery.
"Ufa hope that It will he so."
To whioh the Mail Tribune,
and we believe all right think
ing people in Medford and
Jackson oounty, utter an em
phatic and heartfelt AMEN I
May this last straw aa our
contemporary, go prayerfully
and so generously hopes, cure
the Medford oancerl
It SHOULD. It Bhould show
us plainly where this constant
bickering and scratching, this
constant strife and dissension,
this mudslinging and back
biting is leading us.
But thi much is certain. It
WON'T, unless we as a com
munity WAKE UP, snap out of
the lethargy that surrounds us,
throw off the indifferonce that
blinds us, and adopt an atti
tude Toward this Norton recall,
entirely different from the at
titude that hits been adopted
toward all the other efforts of
this political ring, to gain abso
lute control of Medford and
Jackson county, for their own
political advancement and
their own material benefit.
For years this effort has been
going on. The goal has always
been the same. The methods,
scattering the seeds of dissen
sion, suspicion and hate have
been the same, also. This at
tempt to recall Judge Norton
and thus secure control of the
circuit court, is essentially no
different, than the attempt to
secure control of the county
court, of the city council, of the
district attorney's office, of
the offices of sheriff and coun
ty clerk. The attacks, the in
sinuations and innuendoes
against Judge Norton, are es
sentially no different than the
attacks, the insinuations and
innuendoes, against the county
court, the district Rttorney, the
city council, yes, and the
grand jury, the traffio and
fruit associations, the chamber
of oommerce, the banks, the
state police, agaiifst practical
ly every institution and every
public official, in, this commu
nity. And unless as the Grants
Pass Courier points out this
Norton recall PROVES to be
the last straw, DOES break the
back of public indifference and
arouse the people of southern
Oregon, at last to the dangers
which confront them, who is
the optimistie prophet to deny
that these political effort will
continue indefinitely with the
inevitable chaos.
No newspaper can prevent it.
No public officials seeking elec
tion, can prevent it. ONLY
THE PEOPLE OF MEDFORD
AND JACKSON COUNTY
MEDFOBD MXLTJ
YOU AND YOU, AND YOU
CAN PREVENT IT I
If the people are going to
treat this attempt to "GET'
Judge Norton, as they have
treated the attempts to get all
other officials and institutions,
with an amused indifference,
something to take their minds
off their troubles, an escape
from day to day boredom
then not only will the Courier's
hope that this action "will ring
the knell of Medford 's troubles
and start her upward again,"
NOT BE FULFILLED, but
what was once the glory of
Medford and has always been
her pride, will be gone forever.
What was Medford 'g glory
and pride what .made her
known all up and down the
coast, as one of the biggest lit
tie cities in the landf
Her loyal civio -spirit, her
energy and enterprise, her
ability, at any time and under
any conditions, to GET TO
GETHER, to unite shoulder to
shoulder for anything looking
toward her growth and better
ment. For years that was true. But
for the past five years partic
ularly during the past two, it
lias NOT been true.
Whyt Simply because of
this ring of disgruntled poli
ticians and self-seekers, who by
a persistent and never ending
campaign of mendacious mud
slinging, character assassina
tion, abuse and slander, the
broadcasting of vicious and
absolutely unwarranted attacks
not only upon publio officials
but private citizens, hag so
torn this community asunder,
that no inner harmony or unity
has been possible. Medford
can't go together on anything.
As the Courier well savs.
'Medford once the metropolis
of southern Oregon, of late has
fallen from her high estate."
Grants Pass sees it. ' Salem
sees it. Portland sees it. Cer
tainly there can be no- one in
Medford and Jackson county
sfl blind they can't see it.
And seeing it, our duty is
plain. Simply this:
For the right thinking people
of this community to get to
gether and
PUT IT DOWN t
Put down this outrageous
recall petition, by refusing to
sign it.
TREAT EVERY SIMILAR
EFFORT, TO KEEP THIS
COMMUNITY IN A CON
STANT TURMOIL, IN THE
SAME WAY.
Show these people who think
they can foather their own
nests, by unscrupulous slander
and shameful abuse, that
IT CAN'T BE DONE!
That i the way. And that
is the ONLY way. For as long
as this crowd thinks they can
climb into flower, by sowing
this poison, and disrupting this
community, they are going to
do it.
The only way to stop them,
is to show them they CAN'T
do it. And the way to do that
is to smother this recall at
tempt so deep, it will never be
revived, and smash EVERY
SIMILAR EFFORT BE- j
TWEEN NOW AND THE I
FALL ELECTION. i
When this is done Medford
and Jackson county can return
to their own, and not until
then.
For 'no matter how good a
community may be, no matter
how rich its natural resources,
or how superior its citizenship,
If the people of that commu
nity do nothing, day in and day
out, week in and week out, but
fight among themselves,
Ihere is eventually disaster,
and RUIN.
This doesn't mean lulling
ourselves to sleep, to the Poly
anna tune of "God's in His
Heaven, all's right with the
world." All is not right in the
world, here or nyjjhere else.
TRIBUNE, MEDFORD,
There are important prob
lems to solve. There are im
portant tasks to perform. And
because all is NpT right, Med
ford needs unity, harmony and
its old time spirit more acutely
than ever before.
Then let's get together and re
vive that spirit. Let's show our
good neighbor to the north that
this Norton recall DID sound
the knell of Medford's troubles.
DID start her on the upward
path again.
LET'S DO THIS:
Not for the sake of any indi
vidual or individuals. Not for
the sake of any clique or any
political party. Solely and only
for the sake of Medford and
Jackson county its continued
growth, its development and its
prosperity. R. W. R.
P. S. : The above has been
written, as most of our readers
knowj over 2000 miles away
from the scene of action, 'the
writer having been called to
the Middlewest nearly three
weeks ago. There are disad
vantages in being so far away,
many of them but there is
ONE distinct advantage. It
gives one an excellent perspec
tive. For these three weeks we
have read the Medford news
papers regularly, and we have
read clippings from other pi
pers in the state, and the im
pression of the utter futility
and folly of this constant hick
ering out there, has impressed
us more forcibly than ever be-
fore, undoubtedly more than
if we had remained in Medford
What a pity and what a shame
for a little city, as clean and
decent and free from anything
approaching vice and corrup
tion, as is Medford, to waste its
time fighting phantoms and
windmills.
From this distance it would
be easy to dismiss the entire
noise and fury as a farce, a
joke nothing to take serious
ly, and this we would do if we
didn't know from sad experi
ence that it does Medford and
Jackson county harm. It was
because this realization was
emphasized by the comments of
the Grants Pass Courier and all
other papers in the state, that
the above was written. We
wish it might do some good,
clear the Medford atmosphere
let the people get together
again on a rational plane of
common sense and good will
(even if there is going to be an
election) ! If any progress in
that direction could be made,
we would feel amply repaid for
banging a typewriter in our"
B. V. D.'s, with the mercury 96
in the shade, and with an elec
trician just across the wall
unable (apparently) to find
what is wrong with the frigi
daire ! " R. W. R.

Editorial Comment
Filing of libel suite against the
Dally Newt has almost become a
habit with the people of southern
Oregon. We confess we are not a bit
surprised. We have been wondering
how long the publisher of that pa
per could get away with his constant
stream of fault-finding and vllllflca-
tion without getting Into trouble.
Until Medford and the Rogue River
valley let up this kind of thing and
stand together again, no progress
can oe espected.

In the weet. Iverywhere we have
traveled In the state we have heard
about how well they do things In

near is "whst haa become of the old
"Medford spirit?" Of course, some
of the old-time leaden ot public
opinion have gone from our midst.

they art not forever handicapped by

First twenty miles of automo-

built by W. R. Hearst across

hills so steep that one car trav

gasoline flow.
At the end of twenty miles,
saddle horses are waiting, fif
teen or twenty, with western
saddles, Mexican bridles, horses
trained to slide down steep
banks on their hocks. They
need the training here.
Twenty miles on the horses over
narrow trails made by cattle and
deer, up and down steep mountains,
and through valleys, with water still
running In streams, despite the dry
season.
Then ttie first hslf of the picnic at
one of the assembled Hearst rsnohes,

OUTBREAK OF HYDROPHOBIA PHOBIA,
A hamlet In the mountain of Ten
nessee hs lately" enjoyed an crgy of
hydrophobia phobia which waa pro
moted, appar
ently, by aome
yellow d o d g e ra
distributed by the
locsl health au
thorities. From
all I can learn
about thla out
break It I typi
cal In all Ite fea
ture, and I take
It a my cue for
this outburst on
the subject. My
motive Is educa
tion: whether the
.education of the
public or the education of the con
ductor of this column, will transpire
before long, I hope.
Briefly I seriously doubt that rabies
ever occurs In man. I believe It It
prevalent among domestic and wild
animals. Still, If I were wounded In
any way by an animal which' any
physician suspected to be rabid, I'd
want the doctor to give me the
Pasteur anti. - rabies treatment I'd
want the benefit of the doubt. There
you have my position clearly de
fined. But I wish we could settle this
question of "hydrophobia," as those
who believe In human rabies like to
call It. I Invite all our readers who
have any personal experience to re
port to write me about It. Not
legends or second or third hand tales.
but your own personal experiences.
We can gain nothing by quarreling
with each other'e notions about such
a subject. But clear report of actual
experiences may help us to arrive at
the truth about rabies.
Pasteur Is one of my great heroes.
I feel llko a vandal when I venture
to question the occurrence of rabies
In man. But then, the virus Pasteur
gave the world for the prevention of
rabies was only one. and a minor one
of the great scientist's works. Beside
others have actually modified Pas
teur's virus or the method of prepar
ing and using It, and no less than
four different methoda are now In
use In the United States. So It seems
that Pasteur's work Is not regarded
as Infstllble. Indeed, the very fact
-that various recognized authorities
follow different methods In prepar
ing and ' administering the virus
against rabies, more than a dozen ot
them In fact, tends to raise a doubt
In one's mind about the specific ef
fect of the administration of the
virus.
Ths experts are not In accord In
accounting for the untoward effect

Mr. Hearst having purchased all
the landa about, excepting the mis
sion site, has offered to restore the
apclent mission buildings, replace the
old roof of tiles on the chapel, and
raise the fallen walla to their old
place. Perhaps the church authori
ties will accept the offer, perhaps pre
fer to retain ancient memories In the
crumbling walls.
In Mllpltaa ranch house, on a table
thirty feet long, fifteen feet wide,
comes the second hslf of the picnic,
while friendly neighbors that have
dropped In, sing Mexican songs with
accompaniment of gultara. Mrs. Re
becca Bame, who run the Potrancas
"Little Flutes" ranch on the edge of
the government forest preserve sings,
In Spanish, songs that take your
Imagination far from the United
