Th.tma Todd I'omrdv MEEIIiESDAY MEDYNSKI PASSES AFTER 40 YEARS SERVICE TO CITY F. V. Medynskl. 82, one of Medford's most prominent citizens, a widely known engineer, and one who did much to shape the progress of Med ford during the "80s and early 1900s. died yesterday at his home on North Central, following a brier illness. He had retired from active business for 31 years but continued until his death to work for the advancement of this city. Mr. Medynskl served for a period of years on the city council, was in strumental In obtaining Medford's first water supply, and from 1890, when he arrived at the old Nash ho tel, the day after Christmas, until his death, continued to progress with the city, until his name was closely allied with the name of Medford throughout the state. The son of a direct descendant of Polish nobility. Mr. Medynskl was born February 6, 1851, m Englana. His grandfather, a Polish nobleman, and his family were exiled to Si beria during the war. His father having gone to England before the conflict, escaped this treatment, and finding the members of his family n exile upon return to Poland, went back to England to make his home. He became interpreter ir the British parliament and was noted as an en gineer and builder. Mr. Medynskl, coming to the United States as a youth, continued to Chi cago. 111., In 1871, and there entered his trade of engineering. He also owned and operated a tugboat on the Great Lakes. While in Chicago he met and married Ella Palmer, who survives him. They were married April 23, 1876, and on June 1, 1881, moved to Des Moines. Iowa, where Mr. Medynskl was manager of he largest distillery in the world. Own ed by Geo. W. Kldd, It paid Into the United States treasury $22,000 a day and consumed products from 108.000 acres of land. The cologne spirits distilled were shipped to France for use In perfumes. While in Des Moines Mr. Medynskl was colonel of the Tenth regiment. Select Knights. A. O. U. W., which was later blended with the Tenth regiment, U. S. A.. and sent to Manila. Having started westward before the war, he had re signed his military position. When the Medynskls arrived in Medford, their one daughter, Mrs. Ira T. Moss of Klamath Falls, recalled to day, the tracks had Just been laid for the Jacksonville railroad. Mr. Meynskl soon bvllt and oper ated a distillery in which, through a partnership, his daughter stated to day, he lost all he had. He then left for Alaska, as chief engineer on one of the 12 river boats of the Moran Bros, of Seattle. Stern wheelers, the boats were constructed to make the run on the Yukon river between St. Michael and Dawson, during the gold rush. As an engineer, Mr. Medynskl played an Important role In the de velopment of Alaska. He received and treasured the first nugget found t Do thiCa St. Michael. He remained In Alaska until he recovered nls fortune, en during many hardships of the north land. Nine months out of the year the river boats stood in solid Ice. which had to be sawed from the boats each morning to keep them from being crushed. In 1902, Mr. Medynskl returned to Medford and bough; and Improved the property at Main and South Cen tral, where the Medynskl building now stands. During the more than 40 years he was known in Medford, he had cul tivated many friends, being a man with very high ideals and sympathy, which extended to all his friends and associates.

Present rates in effect for the same services are 1.73 per cwt. Application for this rate was made four years ago. In the application of the northwestern fruit producing district for general rate readjust ments, but the establishment of this particular rate on the heavy loading of pears was made possible only after arguments had been presented to the originating carriers In the northwest and ahetr recommendation made to the Transcontinental Freight Bureau favoring its establishment. Growers and shippers of Rogue River Valley pears are particularly gratified at the request for the new rate, since a major portion of the crop may now be shipped at the lower rate, particularly the winter pears. Successful tests conducted during the past five years Indicate that pre-cooled winter pears may safely be loaded 720 boxes to the car, Instead of the generally accepted 520 boxes. The saving effected through the establishment of this rate will be nine cents per box. the highway bond sinking funds of Jackson county to a special emergency relief fund forthwith. This can be done without Injuring the rights of the bond holders. The relief fund created is to be expended only by order of the county court. This was recommended in view of the fact that there are now outstand ing about 980.000 of county warrants, with no funds to back them. Nearly every fund la overdrawn. In Justice to their depositors, the banks of the county cannot ladeflnltely accept ad ditional warrants, since there Is at present a tax delinquency of about 1.000.000. This motion was voted down by Commissioners Billings and Nealon. Having been requested by Judge Fehl to reorganize the unemployment and relief work In this county (with out remuneration) to the end that it may bring a fair return to the tax payers, I now call upon these two commissioners, aa I did In open court this morning, to IMMEDIATELY pro vide some other means to meet this emergency so that the unemployed may not be forced to accept payments In warrants that cannot much longer be honored at face value, If at all.
