HIGHER ROAD TAX IS NEEDED IN COUNTY (Frui Grower.) The.ro will bo 1,000,000 fruit treos and grape viui!s planted in Jackson county tlis winter. Tho largo ucro ago now planted ami the immense number of trees cortuin to bo planted within tlio next ton years makes tho transportation problem u most im portant mattor to tho fruit growers. Allowing for.un average yield it is n conservative estimate that tho crop for 1010 will amount to S00 oars and tho crop for lOl.'i to 0,000 ears and that of 1H120 to 'JO.000 cars. To haul this fruit from the orchard to tho railroad would make S000 wagon loads for 1010, for lOl.'i (10,000 loads and for 1020 200,000 loads. On n dirt road during tho dry season tho avorago wagon lond is sixty boxes. On a macadamized road tho avorago farm learn can haul 100 boxes and as easily in December ns in Septombor. This is n foroiblo argument that Jack son county should rush tho good road work.

According to a wireless dispatch from Managua vio Port Limon, 200 were killed In tho battle, which raged for six hours. Tho revolutionists captured several cannon and a large quantity of am munition. Many of the government troops wero captured and taken to Rama as pftseaera of war. Tho revolutionary forces under General Metuty are In undisputed pos session of Rama and tho contiguous territory. Today's battle is supposed to have followed an attempt on the part of the Zelayans to get outside the rebel lines preparatory to the general attack on Metuty's position, which it is thought they are contem plating.

ESTRADA I VICTOR IN BATTLE i i l VALLEY PAID TRIBUTE BY WILSON Secretary of Agriculture Mentions Support Given by Rogue River Valley in His Annual Report. ONLY FRUIT SECTION TO RECEIVE MENTION Medford Now Has Only Bu reau of Plant Industry Out side of Washington. r On the Pacific coast the im portant work on the eradica tion of pear blight has been continued with encouraging results, special attention be ing given to this disease in portions of Oregon, where the department received tho very hearty co-operation of the fruit growers, especially those of the Rogue River Talley. Extract from 1909 report of Jamea Wilson, secretary of agriculture. The secretary of agriculture has distinguished the Rogue River valley by making a special mention of this section In his annual report, tho only mention of the kind made In that re port, and that in connection with such a vital problem to the fruit Industry as the eradication of the pear blight. Another distinguishing feature Is tho fact that a flag, of the regulation 1 size, which Is used to distinguish all government buildings or. the presenco of government offices, has been sent to Professor O'Gara to bo displayed in front of his offices, as showing that there Is located a government bureau. This office Is tho only gov ernment station of the bureau of planting of the department of agri culture in the west, in fact the only ono In tho United States outside of tho city of Washington. Professor O'Gara Is the only government path ologist in chargo of an independent station. There is one government pathologist in California, but ho Is subordinate to Professor O'Gara. "When I camo hero two years ago," said Professor O'Gara, "I was called In Just tho proper time, and tho fruit growers had awakened In Just tho right tlmo also. The pear blight waa getting a hold in tho Roguo River val loy which, It allowed to continue, would havo resulted In untold loss. As It was, wo havo been enabled to check It In tho bud, you might say, and now wo have It completely under control. Somo opposition wns met with at first, but that has all been eliminated now, and tho fruit men of tho valley nro enthusiastic In their co-oporntlon."

Tariff HIM. "Two features of the new tariff ret call for special reference. Hy virtue of tho clause, known as the 'maximum and minimum' clause, It Is tho duty of tho executive to consider tho laws and practices of other coun tries with reference to tho Importa tion Into those countries of tho prod ucts and tnerclinndlso of tho United States, and If tho executive finds such Iuwb and practices not to bo unduly discriminatory against the United States, tho minimum duties provided i in tho bill are to go Into force. Un less the president makes such a find i Ing, thou tho maximum duties pro vtded In tho bill, that Is. nn increase I of 25 por cent ad valorem ovor tho minimum duties, nre to be In force. Fear has been expressed that this I power conferred and duty Imposed on the executive U likely to lead to a tariff war. I beg to express tho hope and belief that no such result need bo anticipated. NYw Tariff Hoard. "The new tariff law enables mo to appoint n tariff board to assist mo In connection with the department of state, In tho ndmtnlstrntlon of the minimum and maximum clause ot tho net and also to assUt officers of thu government In tho administration ot the entire Inw. An examination of the law and an understanding of tho nature of tho facts which should bo considered In discharging tho func tions Imposed .,on tho executive show that I ha"1 the power to direct tho tariff board to make n compara tive glossary and encyclopedia of tho terms used and articles embraced In tho tnrlff and secure Information as to the cost of production of such goods In this country nnd the cost of their production In foreign countries. I have thorefore appointed a tariff board consisting of throe members nnd have d'rected them to perform all tho duties above described." The Law's Delay. In connection with procedure In American courts, tho president says: "Tho deplornblq delays In tho ad ministration of civil nnd crlmlnnl Inw have -recoh'ed the attention of com mittees of tho American Uar'assocla tlon and many state bar associations, as well as the considered thought ot Judges and Jurists. In my Judgment, a chango In Judicial procedure with a view to reducing Its expense to prl vato litigants In civil cases and facil itating tho dispatch of business and final direction in both civil nnd crim inal cases constitutes the greatest need In our American Institutions. I do not doubt for one moment thnt much of tho lawless violence and cru elty exhibited In lynchlngs aro direct ly duo to tho uncertainties and In justice growing out of (ho delays In trials, Judgments and tho executions thereof by our courts. Tho proced ure In tho federal courts should fur nish an example for tho state courts. I thereforo recommend legislation providing for the appointment by tho president of n commission with au thority to examine these Inws nud equity procedure of tho federal courts of first Instance, tho law of nppealH from thoso courts to the courts of appeals and to tho supreme court, and the costs .Imposed In such pro cedure on tho private litigant and upon tho public treasury and mko rccommondntlous.wlth n view to sim plifying nnd expediting tho procedure ns far as possible and making It an Inexpensive ns may bo to tho litigant ot little means." Injunctions. Recommending thnt legislation he adopted to carry out tho platform pledges with regard to Injunctions, tho president says; "Tho ends of Justice will best ho met nnd tho chief cnuso ot complaint against Ill-considered Injunctions j without notice will bo avoided by tho enactment of a statute forbidding (hereafter tho Issuing of nny Injunc tion for restraining order, whether temporary or permanent, by any fed- oral court, without previous notice nnu a reasonnnio opportupnuy to w heard on behalf of the parties to be enjoined; unless It shall appear to tho satisfaction of tho court that the delay to give such notice and hearing would result In Irreparable Injury to tho complainant ami unless also the court shall from the evidence make a written finding which shnll bo spread upon the court minutes, thnt Immediate and Irrcpnrablo Injury Is likely tn ensue to tho complainant, nnd shnll define the Injury, state why It Is Irreparable nnd shall nlso en force upon tho order Issued tho date nnd tho hour of the Issuance of the ordor. Moreover, every such 'injunc tion or restraining order Issued with previous notice nud opportupnlty by the defendant to be heard should by force ot tho statute expire nud bo of no effect nftor seven days from the Issuance thereof or within any tlmo less than thnt period which the court may fix, unless within such seven days or such lens period tho Injunction or order is extended or ronowed.aftor previous notlco and op portunity to bo heard. "Whlto Slavt- Trade." "I regret to havo to say that tho Investigations made In the bureau of Immjgrntlon nnd other sources of In formation lend to tho vlow that there Is urgent necessity for additional leg islation and greater executive activ ity to suppress tho recruiting of the ranks of prostitutes from the streams of immigration into this country an evil which for want of a better name hns been cnllcd 'tho white slave; trade.' I believe It to bo constitu tional to forbid, under ponalty, tho' transportation of persons for pur- poses of prostitution across national and state lines; and by appropriating a fund of 150,000 to bo used by tho j secretary of commerce and labor for tho employment of special inspectors, I It will bo posslblo to bring thoso ro-, sponsible for this trado to Indictment and conviction under a federal law."

TO REMEDY THE One feature of President Taft's message will meet uni versal approval, namely, tho recommendation of the ap pointment of a commission to simplify and expedite the administration, of justice by a revision of laws and court methods. TV It is ono of the scandals of our time that any unscrupu lous lawyer can so impede the course of justice as to de lay punishment of criminals indefinitely and in many in stances to enable them to escape penalties altogether. A wealthy culprit can always stave off the execution of his sentence, no matter how strong are the evidences of guilt, while the case drags its weary way through court after court, and the chances are that at least one of the courts will construe some unimportant technicality that has nothing to do with the to make a new trial possible and the entire case be fought j over again. This, combined with the fact that the culprit 1 employs the best grade of legal talent, while the state j usually secured, for the small remuneration that goes with the office, a poorer grade of legal ability for prosecution, increases the chances for escape for the criminal. President Taft says: "The deplorable delays in the! administration of civil and criminal law have received the j attention of committees of the American Bar association and many state- bar. associations, as well as the consid- j ered thought of judges and jurists. In my judgment, a -change in judicial procedure with a view to reducing its expense to private litigants in civil eases and facilitating; the dispatch of business and final direction in both civil j and criminal cases constitutes the greatest need in our, American institutions. I do not doubt for one moment that much of the lawless violence and cruelty exhibited in lyncliings are directly due to the uncertainties and injus- tice growing out of the delays in trials, judgments and the execution thereof by our courts. The procedure in the federal courts should furnish an example for the state; courts. I therefore recommend legislation providing for the appointment by the president of a commission with au thority to examine these laws and equity procedure of the federal courts of first instance, the law of appeals from! these courts to the courts of appeals and to the supreme court and the costs imposed in such procedure oh the pri-! vate litigants and upon the public treasury and make rec ommendations with a view to simplifying and expediting the procedure as far as possible and making it a sinexpen sive as may be to the litigant of little means." ZELAYA GOVERNMENT DOOMED. That the Zelaya government of Nicaragua, which has kept Central America in turmoil for years, is nearing an end is foreshadowed by the actions of congress and the administration. President Taft foreshadows the course of America as follows: "It would be most unnecessary to rehearse here the sad tale of unspeakable barbarities and oppressions alleged to have been committed by the Zelayan government. Re cently two Americans were put to death by order of Pres ident Zelaya himself. They a revolution which had continued many weeks and was in control of about half of the cording to the modern enlightened practice of civilized nations, they were entitled to be dealt with as prisoners or war. "At the date when this message is printed this govern ment has terminated diplomatic relations with, the Zelaya government, for reasons made public in a communication to the former Nicaraguan charge d'affaires, and is intend ing to take such steps as will be found most consistent with its dignity, its duty to American interests and its moral obligations to Central America and to civilization. It later may be necessary for me' to bring this subject to the attention of congress in a special message." Zelaya 's reign will end as Castro in a hasty flight with the money stolen from the people, or by the assas sination of the petty tyrant, a route taken by many another Central American dictator.

LAND OF NOD AN OLD FRIEND Local Talent, However, Could Put it All Over the Traveling Company. It much like meeting a friend of other days when tho curtain went up on "The Land of Nod" at tho Med ford Monday evening. Tho same old lines which havo delighted us so long wore there and proved not to havo lost all of their old charm, Tho house was well filled and tho eve ning enjoyed for the moat part. Now, that's enough on tho show, so hero's a tip: Let's line up Medford's talent and wo can "put It nil over 'em." First wo will let Mrs. Hazolrlgg play "Donnio," the little strangor in a strange land; put Miss Palmer In ns Jack of Hearts, Mrs. Burgess, Itory Dory Alice, and Miss Claromont tho chorus girl. That takea caro of tho girls; and now for tho boyo: "Quiz" and "Art" cantako caro of April Fool and Rarebit; Ed Andrews can fill tho bill as tho Sandman. Wal ters can play "tho man 1 i tho moon," and as Jim Stevens is coming back, wo can run him in 'as "Tho Devil," and with a fow embollishmonts tho local players could teach tho travel ing company something of acting.

To tho Kdltor: it may not bo known nmongttt hotel keepers gonor- nlly that at the regular session of tho Oregon legislature this year n law was passed requiring all hotel or lodging housed, more than two sto- rloa high, In tho xtato of Oregon, to he provided with at leant ono (Iro escape of iron or othur Incombustible- material on each exposed side of Hitch hotel building, conveniently accessi ble frnm each room of such hotel building. The law further provides thnt all lodging houses and hotels shall be provided with mattlln or sisal rope not less than one-hnlf Inch In 1 diameter nnd of sufficient length to reach the ground, knotted 1- Inches apart, In ovry outside room used an a lodging room, except tho rooms on the ground floor. The legislature did not fall to provide u penalty for failure to comply with the provisions of this net. It seems that every, day persons operating hotels or lodg ing houses fall to comply with tho provisions of this act constitutes a separate offense. Chapter 37 of the session laws of 1000 sets forth In detail the provi sions of this act. Your correspondent takes this means of calling public attention to this law because b InterMU of pub lic policy In our rapidly oxpnudlng cltlws nnd towns seems to require the enforcement of this law; nnd the re cency of Its puswige leaves many In Ignorance- as to tho existence of such a law.

EASTERNER HAS PRAISE FOR ROGUE RIVER VALLEY (Orcgonian.) LOGAXSPORT, Ind., Banks of the Wabash, Dec. 2. (To the Editor.) I have been reading in a recent is sue of The Oregoninn regarding a man, from Polk county, Oregon, who is afraid that the state of Oregon is going to be over-boomed. Just put this man in n bottle and cork up the latter tightly. I visited Oregon in 1886 and again in 1909, spending one week nt Med ford, Or., with my friend Jesse En yart, formerly from Logunsport, Ind. and also one week with my cousins, David Creighton, 920 East Everett street, Portland, andSnmuel Creigh ton, of The Dalles, Or. I must say that if I were not a man over 67 3?ears of age, Oregon would have me for a solid citizen in less than thirty days. I was surprised last fall, while on my visit to Oregon to see tho strides that it had made in such short time. I would not believe the stories told me by the Creightons until I had seen things with rav own eyes. I am convinced that Medford, in the Rogue river valley, as well as any friend, Jesse Enyart, now at Medford, hnve bright futures before them, especially in pear orchards; also The Dalles and Hood River county. Think of the undeveloped central Oregon, and then think of anyone fearing the overbqoming of the'great state of Oregon. I saw land sell in 1880 nt The Dalles for $2.50 per acre, and now this same land sells for $100 per acre. This makes tne tell the young Hoosiers to take Horace Greeley's advice: "Go west young man," go to Oregon. I know of several Hoosiers who are prepar ing tp leave Hoosierdom next spring to help fill up Oregon. I have a Lrothjbr who left Portland in 1868, and he almost sheds tears every time he thinks of Oregon. He is now clos ing out his business of farming and is prepnring to take the Greely cure at tho ago of almost 70 years. Ore Kon will stand booming for the next 25 years. I. N. CRAWFORD.

After a brief but comprehensive tour of Inspection over all the works then forward he drew a hundred of this and announced to Newmnrk that buslucss would take him awny for about two weeks. At Redding, whither ho went to pack his little sole leather trunk, he told Grandma Orde the same thing. She camo and stood by the man lean ing over the trunk. "Speak to her, Jack," said she quiet ly. '"She cares for you." Orde looked up In astonishment, but he did uot pretend to deny the Implied accusation as to his destination. "Why, mother." he cried, "she's only seen me three or tour times! It's ab surd yet." "I know," nodded Grandma Orde wisely; "I know. But you mark my words she cares for you." She placed her hand for an Instant on bis shoulder and went avay. The Ordcs were not a demonstrative people. The Journey to New York was at that time very long and disagreeable, but Orde bore It with his accustomed stoicism. lie had visited the metrop olis before, so It was not unfamiliar to him. He. made his way to a small ho tel just off Broadway. Orde ate. dressed and set out afoot In search of Miss Bishop's address. Be arrlved'ia front of. the house a Uttle past S o'clock and after a moment's hesitation mounted tbe steps and rang the bell. The door swung silently back to frame an Impressive manservant dress ed In livery. To Orde's inquiry he stated tba't Miss Bishop had gone out to the theater. Tbe young man left his name and a message of regret At this the footman, with an irony so sub tle as to be quite lost on Orde. demand ed a card. Orde scribbled a line In his notebook, tore It out folded It and left It He retired early and arose early, as had become bis habit. At tbe office tbe clerk handed blm a note: My Dear Mr. Orde I Vi io iorry to ml you that evening because of a stu pid play. Come around as early at you can tomorrow morning. I shall expect you. Sincerely yours. CARnpLL. DISHOP. Orde glanced at the clock, which pointed to 7. He breakfasted and start ed leisurely In the direction of West Ninth street He walked slowly.

Jack. She caret jar you." stated, with great brevity, that Miss Bishop wrt$" not yet visible nnd pre pared to elose the uoor. "You are mistaken," said Orde. "I bavo an engagement with Miss Bishop. Tell her Mr. Orde Is here." The man departed, leaving Orde standing In the gloomy ball. That young man, however, parted tbe cur talus leading Into a parlor and sat down In a splndlo legged chair. For quite three quarters of an hour he waited without hearing any other Indications of life than mullled sounds, Occasionally he shifted his position, but cautiously, as though he feared to awaken some one. Three oil portraits stared nt him with all the reserved aloofuess of their painted eyes. He began to doubt whether tbe man bad announced him at nil. Then, breaking the stillness with al most startling abruptness, be heard n clear, high voice saying something at the top of the stairs outside. A ruytu mlcal swish of skirts, punctuated by the light pat-pat of a girl tripping downstairs, brought him to his feet. A moment later the curtains parted and sho entered, holding out hor baud, no stood holding her hand, sudden. ly unable to say a word, looking at her hungrily, A tlood of emotion, of which ho bad had no prevision, swelled up wjihlu him to fill his throaj, WW KJZ. s By Stewart Edward White "It was good or you to come so promptly," isnld she.

In I a moment or so tbe curtains to the hall parted to frame the servant. i "Mrs. Bishop wishes to know, miss," said that functionary. "If you're not coming to breakfast." 1 Orde sprang to his feet. "naven't you hnd your breakfast yet?" he cried, conscience stricken. "Didn't you gather the fact that I'm Just upr she mocked him. "I nssuro you It doesn't matter. Tho family nas Just come down." "But," cried Orde. "I wasn't here un til 0 o'clock. I thought, of course, you'd be around. I'm mighty sorry" "Oh. la. la!" she cried, cutting mm short. Ordo was for taklug his leave, but this she would not have. "You must meet my family." she negatived, "for If you're here for so short a tlmo we want to sec something of you. Come right out now." Orde thereupon followed her down a narrow, dark hall to a door that opened slantwise into tbe dining room.
