WITH VICTORY n EAR he
ALMOST GAVE UP FIGHT
Columbian Now Has Wife
to Thank for Urging
Him On.
WON AFTER 30 YEARS
Moral in This Story Perhaps Applies
to Many Others-Tells of
Long Struggle.

There is a moral in this. 1t has to
deal with person who came very
near giving up too soon. And the
story is told by his wife-a story
that perhaps is true with regard to
many others.
Mrs: Mary Gordon, of 72O Seventh
ST., Olympia, suburb of Columbia,
says Tanlac made a we'll man of her
husband, though he had suffered more
than 30 years with severe form of
stomach trouble before he began TAX
ing 1T. And the moral in this is:
Don't give up," for she says her
husband almost lost heart when the
first bottle of Tanlac failed to give
him the relief he expected, and it was
only because of his wife's urging that
he continued to take Tanlac until she
says he was a well man when the
fourth bottle was taken.
MRS. Gordon's statement in endorse
ment of Tanlac follows:
My husband suffered from catarrh
OF the stomach almost all his life
Tor more than 30 years-and he had it
very badly. He got in such bad shape
that almost everything he ate hurt
him and nothing seemed to nourish
him. He would have sick spells and
work, and his troubles caused him to
lose lot of time from his work.
He was in bad shape and could not
go anywhere hardly, and he had lost
lot of weight. 1t was almost i'm
possible for him to sleep we'll at
night, and sleeplessness troubled him
:, lot. Finally, he decided to take

Hughes May Speak
In Jackson County

A committee of which S. s. Smith
of Medford is member was appoint-
ed yesterday as the executive com
mittee of the state central republican
committee. Nine members were ap.
pointed from the republican commit
tee with Chairman Charles L. Nc
Nary of the state central committee
as ex-officio chairman. This COM
mittee with a committee of five
named by the progressives will act
as the state campaign committee.
Mr.. Smith was up from Medford
this morning in attendance on the
Kansas day festivities, and states that
he has secured the promise of the
powers that be in Oregon republican
ism that if Justice Hughes comes west
and speaks anywhere in Oregon out
side of Portland, that his second stop
shall be made in Jackson county. Al
though Mr.. Hughes plans at present
contemplate only one speech in Ore
gon, 1t may be that he can be pre-
vailed upon to speak twice, in which
event the valley people will have an
opportunity of hearing the republi-
can nominee for president.

True Strength Of Manhood.

Small boys often conceive the false
idea that 1t is manly to chew tobacco,
smoke and swear. Older boys and
young men are prone to conclude
that moral integrity and religious
purity are elements of weakness,
whilst immortality and infidelity are
evidences of strength. No greater
fallacies ever entered the human
mind. Which is stronger, the boy
or young man who resists temptation
and does right, or the one who yields
and does wrong? The one who re-
sists the inclination to indulge in
strong drink and lives a sober, useful
life, or the one who panders to appe-
tite and becomes a miserable drunk
ard? Which is the stronger, the one
who honors his Maker by keeping
himself pure in thought and word and
deed, or he who dishonors God by
defiling himself in mind and speech
and conduct? Who does not know
that it requires strength of purpose,
of will-powe~, of mind to say to the
tempter, "Begone!" and to resist the
devil till he flees away? Who does
not know that his evil deeds are the
results of his moral cowardice?

Medf0rd Voters
Accept Contract

The voters of Medford by vote of
1908 to 366 approved the Bulls con-
tract for the construction of a rail-
road to the Blue Ledge mine at an
election held Monday. Bonds for the
construction of the road were voted
at an election held May 23 and actual
construction Of the railroad will go
forward as soon as the bonds are dis
posed of unless those opposing the
road find an effective legal way of
delaying proceedings. The road taps
an immense virgin timber country
and opens to the railroad the greatest
copper mining belt on the coast.
The construction of a smelter and
one or more immense sawmills is ex-
pected to commence in the near fu-
ture simultaneously with the railroad
construction. r

A lady received the following re-
ply from a neighbor in answer to the
question why she allowed her chill
dren and husband to litter up every
room in the house, and the sentiment
will find lodgment in the heart of
every home-loving person in the
land: "The mark of the little muddy
feet upon the floor can be easier re-
moved than the stain when those lit
tie feet go down into the highways
of evil. The prints of the little fin
gers on the window pane cannot shut
out the sunshine half so much as the
shadow that darkens the mothers
heart over the one who is but name
through the coming years. And If
my John finds his home a refuge
from care and trouble, and his great
est happiness within its four walls,
he can put his boots in the rocking
chair and hang his coat on the floor
every day in the week. And if can
stand it and he enjoys it, l cannot
see that it is anybody else's busi-
ness"

Park Supervisor
Graves Resigns

Park Supervisor P. H. Graves has
resigned, his resignation to take eff
feet Saturday night. Who his sue
cessor will be has not been an
nounced, although the park board is
said to be considering several appli-
cants. Ilr. Graves determination to
resign has been forming for the past
two weeks, according to statement
made by him this afternoon, but he
held on in hopes that the causes
which were leading him to consider
resigning might be removed, so great
is his love for Ashland park.
Mr.. Graves was sent here in the
beginning of the park construction by
John MacLaren of San Francisco, who
recommended him as one of the best
men on the coast, which he has prov
en- to be. He left a position paying
a much more substantial salary to ac-
cept the Ashland work because Mr..
MacLaren asked him to. Arriving
here, he at once fell in love with Ash
land and grasped instantly the won
derful opportunity which lay in the
development of Ashlands canyon
park. AS he puts it himself, 81 never
gave a thought or give thought to
the money part, the opportunity to
create is enough for me-" and he has
been in the lead in the building of
Ashland's beautiful Lithia Park. The
city loses valuable man when Mr.
Graves leaves. He intends to return
to San Francisco after seeing Crater
Lake, the Marble Caves and climbing
Mount Ashland.

The Old Family Doctor.

Under the above heading an ex-
change says: "Never. Not while
there is doctor left in the world
who knows the peculiarities of the
family ailments from grandpa's rheu-
matism to baby's teething troubles
as intimately as matchmaker knows
his own product. Not so long as
there lives sympathetic old friend
of the family whose familiarity with
the physical and mental state of each
member tells him exactly why the
temperature is high, the tongue coat
ed, or the pulse erratic. Not while
there can be found an authoritative
person who can bully father into
staying away from the office or out
of the fields for few days, or who
can persuade the youngsters to swal-
low it after the rest of the family
have abandoned effort. Are we to
give up the friend of the family who
cheers us up and leaves us smiling
and confident, and take in his place
the businesslike man who looks us
over with coldly calculating profess
sional glance and scribbles off pre-
scription with an order to go to the
hospital to take it? Why, the old
family doctor is the one lone agree
able phase of sickness. Give him up?
Well, we should say not!

The Home Circle
---T----------=-- - -
Thoughts from the Editorial Pen
What Is Home?

What Is Home?
Homes not made of palace walls,
Though with pictures hung and
gilded;
Home is where affection calls
Filled with shrines the heart hath
builded;
Home to which the faithful dove
Sails beneath the heaven above us.
Home is where there's one to love
Home is where there's one to love
us.
Homes not merely roof and room;
Home needs something to endear
it.
Home is where the heart can bloom,
Where there's some kind lip to
cheer it!
What is home with none to meet,
None to welcome, none to greet us?
Home is sweet-and only sweet
Where there's one we love to meet

University Prints
Flax Bulletin

A bulletin on the culture and man.
ufacture of flax for both fibre and
seed is just off the press, issued by
the Department Of Commercial and
Industrial Service, School of Com
merce of the University Of Oregon.
This is the result of years investi-
cation of the industry throughout the
world by the department and is a
most comprehensive study of the
subject, which was made at the spec
ial request of the flax committee of
the Portland Chamber of Commerce,
and in cooperation with the depart
ments of state and commerce of the
national government.
The bulletin makes very evident
the superior advantages Of western
Oregon for both the growing and
manufacturing of flax of the very
highest grade, quoting authorities to
show that this section is equal to the
famous Courtrai district of Belgium
where the best flax known to the
world has been grown. The three
chief requisites, soil, water and at
mospheric conditions, all are said to
be possessed by Oregon in just the
right combination and with just the
right elements and conditions. Af-
ter dealing with the naturally favor
able conditions found here the bulle-
tin recites the various experiments
made by the state at Salem, the one
under way at Eugene, and various
private trials that have been made,
and their results. 1t then gives
very brief resume of the requisite soil
preparation, planting and harvesting
methods, calling attention to the gov
ernment bulletins that go into these
questions eXhaustively.
A very interesting and important
chapter is that headed costs, Pro-
duction, Markets, Prices, Profits,
etc." in which the economic features
of the industry are discussed with
especial reference to Oregon. In
fact, throughout the viewpoint is
that of the Oregon farmer and what
flax growing and manufacture means
or may mean to him.
]. Frederic Thorne, who had di-
rect charge of the work for H. B.
Miller, director of the School of Com
merce, states that the material pub
lished is but a fraction of the data
and information gathered from all
parts of the world-that the facts
secured we're so many that only those
of particular interest to Oregon have
been printed, the others being kept
on file at the university for the bene-
fit of anyone who may desire greater
detail or information of a wider
scope.
