in love with her. What the secret
is she will not tell. She says It Is
based on exact scientific principles,
and has nothing whatever to do with
hypnotism or mesmerism, and that,
If any girl knew the secret, she could
bring any man to her feet in a mo-
ment.
The oldest thing about It all Is
the reason Mile. Baudet assigns for
not revealing the secret. She says
she is afraid to trust it to the hands
of her fellow women, because she Is
certain that It would result in cruel
misuse, and the breaking of hearts
by wanton women who would use It
to bring scores of men to their feet,
and then trample upon them.
And the most pitiful thing about
It all, so Mile. Baundet's friends say,
is that she loves a man who doe
not know Il, and although she loves
him wildly and to distraction, she
refuses TO use her strange system
upon him. She hopes he will come
to her Of his own accord, and can
not bear to think of herself as being
so unmaidenly as to force the dec
laration from the man she loves.

THE SLOT
MACHINES
RUNNING

Medford owners and lessees OF slot
machines will defy the utimatum of
Sheriff II. ID. Jackson and operate
their nlckle-enticing devices despite
the sheriff's orders TO the contrary.
A meeting was held of those inter-
ested this afternoon and a program
OF resistance 10 the sherlff's orders
formulated.
Cigar dealers and others hold that
lnasmuch as they pay a regular IL
cense to the city for operating each
machine, and as the city charter au-
thorlzes the council to regulate and
license slot machines, that the sher-
in has no Jurisdiction in the matter,
as far as Medford is concerned.
The charter was granted by the
legislature of 1906 and repeals pre-
vious charters and "all acts and
parts OF acts in conflict herewith. "
Section %. paragraph 23, gives
the city council power and authori-
ty within the limits of the city Of
Medford TO license, regulate and pro-
hibit nickle-in-the-slot machines or
any other scheme of chance"
II Is estimated that there are 20
coin machines in the city, and as
many more cigar and drink ma
chimes. The coin machines, before
their novelty wore on. were good
money makers In saloons, but Of
late are not much patronized, and
their removal would not seriously
injure any saloon. The cigar ma-
chimes are as popular as ever. and
are the means Of selling many more
cigars than would otherwise be dis
posed OF.
Probably no effort will be made 20
oppose the Sunday closing edict, Sa-
loon men will probably take their
medicine and wait until the reform
becomes unpopular or is forgotten.
Under section OF the amended char
ter. the council is given authority
Ito license, tax, regulate or prohibit
barrooms, drinking shops. billiard
rooms. bowling alleys, dance houses
and all places where spurious malt
or vinous liquors are sold or kept for
sale, irrespective OF any general law
OF the state on this subject enacted
by the legislature or the people at
large" provided, that said city
shall not license drinking shops or
other places where intoxicating
liquors are sold to sell Intoxicating

The Lnmhermnn.

Lumbermen do not appear to be
having an altogether pleasant time
this year. A handsome advance In
the priceof lumber last spring no
doubt made them feel good, but
when It cameto preceding with the
seasons cut, the large increase in
wages that had to be paid was de-
cided Offset. Now the railways are
proposing an increase of 10 cents
per hundred pounds in shipments to
the east and as this represents about
SO thousand feet, the lumbermen
are protesting vigorously. The new
rate Is to go into effect on Novem-
Der /. But, the current rate has
been I'm operation several years, and
was presumably satisfactory to the
railroads or It would not have been
adhered TO so long. The proposed
Increase has some appearance of be-
ing insired not so much because OF
increased cost of carriage as by de-
sire to get n share of the increase In
lumber prices and that is hardly
legitimate. The lumbermen would
undoubtedly have had to pay high
er wages even though there had been
no increase in lumber price, and In
that event they could hardly have
hoped for a relative lower freight
rate, and neither would the railways
have been likely to contemplate an
increase, because the business would
not In that case have stood 1t. The
present proposed increase seems to
be simply the old story of taxing
traffic all II will stand. II is true
that an interstate commerce COM
, mission has been appointed to in
quire into such matters as these for
the protection OF the public against
the mercenary combinations OF the
railroads, but there is much red tape
and there Is lack OF power, and a
general inability TO deal with griev-
ances in the prompt manner that
they ought TO be dealt with. and a
consequent considerable loss TO the
agrieved before remedy becomes eff
|, fective. This Is what is hurting the
lumbermen. and some OF them are
looking longingly to Canada where
there is a railway commission that
has power TO do things and does
them with encouraging promptitude.
The lumber business OF Oregon Is
a tremendously important one, and
anything that seriously Affects II in
iurlously reflects on the we'll being
OF the whole state, Last year the
Oregon lumber output is stated to
have amounted to $4,000, which is
certainly a very large factor in the
business affairs OF a community of
less than 100000 souls. and especial
ly as lumber money is new capital
derived from the otherwise unpro-
ductlve forests of the state.--oregon
