This was the suggestion of
his name to be used.
WE FEEL it is an excellent suggestion. We prefer it even
to the Leeion Dronosal that a public memorial be erected.
Nothing we can do can bring George Prescott back to life
again. But we feel if he could be brought back, just be here
for a brief time, that nothing would please him more, noth

Good Soldiers!
IITE CONGRATULATE the people of Medford upon their
behavior when the banks opened yesterday. Instead of
stampeding to take out their money, they stampeded to put it
in. According to banking records, deposits exceeded with
drawals by 30 to one.
A week ago we appealed to the people of this community to
be good soldiers, during the impending crisis. That they cer
tainly have been, and we know they will continue to be.
The banks in Medford and the state are perfectly Bound. The
confidence regarding them shown so oloarly yesterday is basfti
upon the solid rock of fact.-
As President Roosevelt said in his inaugural, "the only thing
we have to fear, is fear itself."
Medford demonstrated yesterday, and throughout the bank
holiday, that when Old Debbil Fear sticks his head above the
trenches, the people of this community are on the firing line,
300 percent strong.
So keep up the good work, brethren, and don't give way
an inoh. With a long pull, a strong pull, and a pull ALL
TOGETHER, we will put Medford back on the map of Southern
Oregon where Bhe rightfully belongs, the "best little -city on
the entire Paoifio coast."
DEED OF BANKS SHOCKS
NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS
(Oregon Ian.)
TRAGEDY AT MEDFORD
It will be lurnrlslnn If L. A. Banks,
slayer of a city officer at Medford,
does not set up a defense of Insanity.
He has Ions been acting Insanely. It
Is a treat pity he could not have been
confined some time ago. Murder
would thus haw been averted and a
human life saved.
Dank, had openly threatened re
sistance to any officers of the law
who might seek to arrest him. He
had openly threatened to take the
field In revolution against establish
ed authority. It was known that he
went armed. Some among his de
luded supporters had gone armed
also, AU these circumstances mint
set up a presumption of premedita
tion against the slayer. It Is diffi
cult to see how any Jury can fall to
convict him of murder In the first
degree or any court fall to Impose
the extreme penalty unless Insanity
shall be proved.
There never was a more flagrant
exhibition of prostitution of the
press than that given by Banks. He
used his newspaper to Inflame the
minds of hlll-blllles and other sim
ple folks against constituted author
ity on grounds almost wholly fanci
ful and fantastic Ills own affairs
had been going badly for several
years and he hnd worked himself
Into a rage against society over It.
He Indulged In long dally diatribes
In his newspaper. He harangued
simpleton, who would listen until
he made them think he was a mar
tyr and that they were being mar
tyred with him. He made them
think the courts and officers of the
law oould be defied with Impunity,
some of hli followers were mere sleet,
opportunists, but most of them were
slnoeiely deluded.
Now there Is the ollmax of mur
der committed by Banks. It ought
to sober those among his followers
who are sincere, and serve as a warn
ing to the others. Such a tragedy
ought to show them where they were
being led. If Banks and his follow
ers have been contending for any
thing that matters, that fact does
not appear to the neutral Informed
view. Certainly nothing they have
contended for was worth tha sacri
fice of a human life. The only com
fort to be taken from that develop
ment Is that It will probably mark
the beginning of the end of lawless
ness In the name of BankMsm In
Jackron county.
(Ashland Tidings.)
Wa have now coma to that great
showdown where blood Is liable to
be spilled."
This was tha warning Issued by
U A. Banks on February ft. while he
was publisher of the Medford Psllr
News the medium which was used
for a period of two years to destroy
the peace of Jackson county, to In
cite men and women to distrust and
hatred of their neighbors nd to

which was climaxed today by the

the subscriber who doesn t wish
his wife and his favorite grand
deolorcd on March 6 at a meeting
of the so-called Good Government
CongreBB.
And today George Prescott, one of
the finest offloers Jackson county
haa ever known, lies dead. Ills blood
was spilled by the fiendish creature
who preached a doctrine of hatred
which has brought to Jackson county
a disturbing Internal strife which It
will require years to eliminate,
L. A. Banks, preaoher of a doctrine
of hatred, suspicion and ' mob rule,
who ran rampant In Jackson county
for these two years, today has cli
maxed his activities in Jackson coun
ty by becoming a killer.
There Is so much that oould be
said nd yet words are so Inade
quate. It seems that the Internal
strife which has done our county
stiotl unmeosurnble damage could not
he settled without this bloodshed.
Indirrerenoe of the public, or a tend

complaints of Banks while he edited

to gain power. We should have learn

AT THE COST OF A LIFE
(Oregon Journal.)
At last human blood has been shed
In tne widespread feud In good old
Jackson county.
Scnrocly anything can be more re
grettable than the strong play of hu
man passion that for weeks has di
vided the folks In that splendid dis
trict, which nature has so generously
endowed. The regret Is accentuated
by the known high standards of the
people whom circumstances and local
differences have se pi rated Into two
hostile camps.
The valleys and streams and moun
talns and soenlo beauty of Jackuon
county are Nature In her best.
Sightly old Jacksonville Is the ren
ter of one of earth's noblest nature
pictures, and has hlvtory and tradi
tion, to match those of any of the
pioneer vantage points of the treat
west with Its last frontiers.
And In and about Medford and
Ashtnnd are scenlo wonders, a mag
nificent outdoors with all the lures
and attractions that go with game
and trout and salmon streams! and
climaxing it all there are culture
and hospitality and high human
standards seldom matched.
And there Is In this delightful
couuty a golden story of history, of
precious metals and mining and In
dians and pioneers that out-romances
In actual happenings the storied ro
mance, of fiction. To the eye. the
famous Table Rocks, visible In the
distance, and the mountains In the
tar environs, are a setting that pic
ture to the mind the golden deposits
beneath the surface. Inclndlng ac
tual gold mining under the streets
of Jacksonville.
In that wonderland of beauty and
splendid people and golden history
and honorable past, may peace re
turn and bltternesa vanish and the
late past be forgotten and happy I
days come back. i

A STROLL AFTER DINNER.
It Is natural to rent for a while
after a hearty meal. But moat of us
lead tat from natural Uvea. If we
captured, grew or I
even earned our
own food, It
would fltlU be
healthful for us
to doze after din-1
ner or to stop,
look and listen,
or to chin-chin
about nothing of
Importance.
For young per
sons who work
hard or get a rea
sonable amount
of exercise every day, It la healthful
to eat at bedtime, and to sleep while
digesting the late supper, provided
only wholesome foods are taken. In
fact, a bedtime snack, say crackers,
bread, cookies or cake and milk, or
some fruit If you like, or a sandwich
or two. or Just bread and butter with
brown sugar on or off, according to
your disposition and ambition. Is
nearly always advisable for people
who are not already pvernourlshed.
Fattlsh readers may as well stop
here. We are leading up to sad news,
doubly sad, for It catches us good
natured ones coming and going, or on
both the Intake and the output. For
us no post-prandlal repose. That way
lies corpulence, cardiovascular degene
ration, apoplexy and whatnot. Stuffy,
spurn that dessert and come on out
for a stroll.
There are some queer old legends
or traditions which we must bend
alarmingly at this point, In the light
of our newer knowledge of physiology.
If anything breaks let us hope it will
be some bad habits.
First,' the one that keeps young
people out of the water after meals.
Now that Is as quaint as long-legged
red flannel underwear and Just as
'sensible. Broken down old bodies
: with atheromatous arteries had better
I remain on dry land and within easy
reach of an ambulance after a big
gorge, for It Is most Inconvenient If
j one's lenttculo-strlate artery lete go
when one Is playing porpoise.
Of course It Is better not to take a
i hearty meal Just before you enter a
lhard race or game or attempt any
! strenuous performance. .You'll get
:on better If you take only a little
j quick fuel, sugar of one kind or an
I other, to sustain your muscles. But
there Is no good reason why normal
young persons should not go In swim
ming as soon as they wish after a
meal when no strain on endurance is
involved.

To the Members of the Good Gov
ernment Congress:
The Jackson County Unemployment
Council has repeatedly warned the
membership of the character and
alms of the leaders of the Good Gov
ernment Congress. Trading on the
misery of the people, a self-seeking
agitator and a publicity seeker have
combined to develop a monstrous sit
uation that has culminated In mur
der.
Only yesterday, one of the leaders
stated that we had "lost prestige1
among the unemployed workers and
others as a result of the stand we
had taken.
Thursday's Incident should suffice
to convince anyone that our posi
tion nas been eminently correct.
Your leader has placed you In titae
worst possible position by his act.
, We warn you that further acts of
terrorism may be attempted and
strongly advise you to call In per
son upon tne Q. a. o. and lmmedl-
tely sever your connections with the
same.
In the faoe of the present situa
tion calmness and good Judgment
are arjsoruteiy essential.
