The Kangaroo Ticket Stands No Chance
Medford, July 11
I cast my first vote for Harrison in 1840. I have one of the "log cabin" badges, which looks as bright as it did forty-eight years ago. I am going to wear it at the polls and help elect Gen. Ben Harrison by a larger majority than we gave his grandfather. The democratic Kangaroo ticket stands no show whatever, the rotten old hulk has gotten all its load in the poop.

"As John B. Wrisley was walking up the railroad track from his home to Medford, Tuesday morning early, he found an obstruction apparently arranged for the purpose of ditching a train." He removed it.
