Proper Care for Property.

Editor Tidings: Confident that
the present year, more than any pre-
vious one, will be for the Rogue Riy-
er Valley, and especially for Ashland
one Of great activity in the deyelop-
ment Of its dormant resources, those
who have been observant of affairs
in this section believe it to be enter
ing a period of substantial growth
and material development. With the
completion of the Pacific highway.
and the solid assurance of the early
completion of the mineral springs
project, by SO doing placing Ashland
on the tourists route as a more de-
sirable and pleasant place to spend a
vacation, or to Iecuperate their men
tai and physical vitality, and to en-
joy the many beautiful and scenic
drives. 1t is now up to every public
officer and citizen who possesses any
public pride in the appearance of the
city, to work in harmony to make
Ashland the city beautiful. At this
time I desire to call attention to the
wanton destruction of property all
over the city by the careless, or
thoughtless, or by those who natur-
ally possess the disposition to de-
stroy. The evidence of this disposi-
ton is to be seen wherever build
ings are left vacant for any length of
time, in the breaking of windows,
tearing down fences, and in many
places going so far as to remove the
doors, and on entering the inside you
will often find the fixtures broken,
light globes removed, etc. This con-
dition gives the city a very ragged
appearance and very undesirable
place for home. 1t is time for par
ents and offers to see that such
destruction shall cease. o. L. Y.

JUSTICE AND truth
With Christ SADVENT
Evangelist Says Capital-La-
Dor War Threatens TO
Grow Worse
SAYS PRESENT AGE
IS WITHOUT PARALLEL

THE Struggle Between Capital and
Labor from the Bible Viewpoint" was
the subject of an illustrated sermon
delivered by Evangelist l.. r. Froom
last night in the Adventist Church, on
Clayton and Howland streets.
He said: "The irreparable conflict
between capital and labor will grow
worse and worse until it bursts with
relentless fury upon the world. No
power aside from the second COM
ing of Christ can stop it. Not until
Christ comes will justice, truth and
equity rule over the earth.
"The age stands without a parallel
i'm history. Never before has there
been such a heaping together OF for
tunes by men, corporations, trusts and
syndicates as at the present time. For
merly fortunes were Independent, but
the idea was conceived of forming
trusts that would bring these together
to shut out competition. BY 1898 the
trust idea was in full swing. In that
year 81 200, 100000 were drawn into
! trusts. and soon a single steel trust
was formed with a capitalization OF
! 81. .3S9 .339 ,956. BY 1904 the capitaliz-
alton of trusts had swollen TO S2O,-
672,160,511. and on January l, 1908,
It had reached 31.672, ,160754. Into
this we're merged no less than 10000
independent plants. corporations and
lines of business. Today 1t is esti-
mated that one-half OF the nations

600. is in corporate form.

What did you fnd" asked Uncle
Harry.
Il found several long articles tell
ing about some trouble over there,
but couldn't tell just what it was,
except that the Turks seem to be op-
pressing the people who live in Ar
menia and driving them out of the
country"
what is the reason for it all,
Uncle Harry?" asked Jimmy.
I'll try to tell you, boys" said he.
If we are going to keep up with the
news we cannot avoid the terrible
state of affairs in Armenia. It is a
long way from here to Armenia and
the people Of this country are differ
ent in many ways from the Armen-
ians. but still they are people like
us with lives to live. And our hearts
must go cut to them in all that they
are going through.
Tell US all about il. Uncle Harry.
Uncle Harry thought a moment for
words to express himself.
Centuries ago." said he Armenia
was a country and had its own gov
ernment In the course of time, how
ever, great changes occurred, and il
happened that Armenia was divided
between Russia. which is to the
north; Persia. which is to the east
and Turkey, which is to the west. II
is Turkish Armenia to which the
newspapers are referring these days
The Armenians have little in com
mon with the Turks. There is little
sympathy between the peoples. Th'
Turks are Mohammedan and thu
Armenians are, in part Christians
The Turkish Government has always
seemed to treat the Armenians will
suspicion and cruelty. The Armen
ians have, naturally, resented thil
kind of treatment. and perhaps the!
have hoped vaguely some day to gov
ern themselves again. And so tn,
Turks have come to hate the Ar
menians and the Armenians hav
come to fear the Turks. although

where is Armenian" asked joe
after the boys and Uncle Harry we're
comfortably seated in the library.
Uncle Harry drew the big globe of
the world closer in order that they
might look at it in the light. Turning
it around, he looked closely at the
portion showing Western Asia, be-
tween the Caspian Sea and the Medi-
.erranean.
Here is Armenia" said Uncle Har-
ry. indicating with his pencil that
district which lies southeast of the
Black Sea, about three hundred miles
vide and two hundred miles deep.
"But why do you ask, Joe?" said
le.
"You told US last Friday you would
tell us about it, so I have been look
ing for news about it in the news

A timber Wolf At LARGE

Residents in the vicinity OF Rock
land report the presence of a tim
ber wolf in that section and within
the past week the animal has treed
one man and killed a number Of chick
ems and a dog AS a result the farm
ers are not venturing out at nights
without guns.
Frederick Sampson, Of the Y. NJ. c.
A., of this city, met the animal several
nights ago and he was compelled to
take to a tree. The snimal remained
at the foot of the tree until a passing
automobile scared it away. A dog
owned by Caleb Bracket was found
dead the other morning with its throat
cut open.

citizens. Mr.. Morgenthau. who is our
Ambassador at Constantinople. has
written to the people of this country
urging strongly that something be
done, and done right away, to help
the Armenians. So, in all probability,
Uncle Sam will lend a helping hand
TO the Armenians, as he has done TO
the homeless Belgians."

THE other European countries are

Harry. THE only country which
would have much influence with Tur-
key is Germany. and Germany has
not protested; some people say it is
not to her interest to do so. The
United States did send Turkey a mes
sage of protest, but the Turkish Gov
ernment sent back word that the Ar
menians were dangerous people. and
that anyway, Turkey had a right to
do what il wanted with its own sub
jects.
Now plans are on foot in this
country to raise large sums of
money and bring over to this country

Every now and then this hatred
on the part of the Turks breaks out
in the form of oppression and mas

dreds of thousands of Armenians
were killed and tortured and driven
from their homes"
Then the Turks let them alone
for a number Of years, didn't they
asked Joe.
Yes said Uncle Harry. but dur
ing the last year the Turks have
again begun to oppress the Armen-
ians. No words can express the
frightful treatment they are receiving
at the hands Of the Turks. The
Turks religion permits him to use
