THE VOTE IN JOSEPHINE
Republicans Secure the Majority
OF Offices.

One Of the most warmly contested
campaigns ever conducted in this
county was brought to close in
Mondays election. The result was a
modified victory for the republicans,
who elected their county ticket with
the exception Of representative,
treasurer and coroner. The closing
period of the campaign was improved
TO the utmost and was characterized
by lively work on tho part Of both
parties.
The total vote cast was little over
1900, trifle short Of the vote OF 1902.
The socialist and prohibition vote
showed slight increase over that of
two years ago. The socialists cast 1886
votes for congressman, and the pro.
hibitlonists 70. In 1902 the socialist
vote was IFS and the prohibition vote
was SO.
The republican state candidates re-
ceiyed pluralities ranging about the
200 mark. Binger Hermann 3 plural.
ity over Veatch was 1873.
The county returns show range Of
about $50 votes between the highest
republican and the highest democratic
pluralities
Lincoln Savage, republican can
didate for school superintendent, car.
rios the banner with a plurality of
432. j. 4. Taylor, democratic candi-
date for treasurer, is a close second
with lead Of ilS Geo W. Lewis,
republican candidate for sheriff, re-
ceiyed plurality OF over 400. The
vote for county clerk was very close,
Fred Cheshire winning out with
plurality of 22.
Il. A, Booth, republican candidate
for joint senator, from Josephine,
Douglas aud Lane, carried the county
by about 100 votes Judges Benson
and Hanna were given good
pluraities. The contest for the dis
trlot httorneyshlp was closer and the
plurality Of IS counted for Reames,
who carried. Jackson county also by
small majority.
Il. G., Smith, democratic candidate
for representative, won out by
plurality Of about 100 over II. W.
Clarke.
The vote on the local option law
was very close, tie returns, which are
not full, showing small margin of
ii votes in its favor A heavy vote
agoinst this measure was cast in South
Grants Pass precinct The direct
primary law and the state printer
amendment carried by larger majori-
ties. The plurality against swine run
ming at large is about 100, the three
precincts Of Grants Pass furnishing
about 200 plurality, while the country
precincts cut this down to the figure
named.

is shown in the table ON the rGst page

WAYS TO KILL MILK GERM.
There Are Many of Them, But the
Bacteria Crushing Machine
Is Last.

Many ways OF killing the bacteria
in milk have from time to time been
suggested. "A recent and ingenious
way is to crush the bacteria to death
by pressure, as a man brushes an in
sect under the pressure of his boot.
"A misunderstanding machine" said
a chemist, "has been built and tried
with partial success. This machine is
capable of putting forth hydrostatic
pressure of 100000 pounds to the
square inch. Milk has been squeezed
under it till the bacteria howled for
mercy. Seriously, milk has received
at the hands of this machine pres
sure of 80 tons. The effect of pres
sure so enormous was to make the
milk keep longer-it kept for five, six
and seven days. This showed that
some Of its bacteria the fermenting
bacteria at least, had been killed. But
though the milk remained sweet 1t be-
gan to emit finally strange, new odor
and 1t had a strange, new taste. This
showed that other bacteria in it had
not been harmed. Prof. Wiley's poison
squads tests have proved that preserv-
atives in milk are harmful. A pressure
OF 70 tons preserves milk for three or
four days and there is no strange odor
or strange taste Maybe before long
chemicals as a preservative of milk
will be succeeded by pressure"

ward life in flocis which must not be
COMPOUNDED with public life. The life
in troops Is something like that Of the
swarms of flies in the sun. Nothing
resembles the life Of worldly mau SO
much as the life Of another worldly
man. And this universal banality de-
stroys even the essence of a public
spirit One does not need to take very
long voyages to see the ravages which
this worldly spirit has made In con.
temporary society, and If we have so
little foundation of equilibrium, calm
good sense, initiative, one Of the great
reasons is in the diminution of the
home-life. The masses arc limping
along after the classes. The people
have become worldly. For 1t Is world
Illness to quit ones home to go and
live in the saloons. Misery and the
wretched state of these habitations
do not suffice to explain the current
which sweeps each one out from his
home. Why does the peasant desert
the house where his father and his
grandfather were 80 happy, for the
inn? The house has remained the
same; 1t is the same fire in the same
chimney. Why does 1t shine on an
incomplete circle, instead Of the long
evenings of olden times, when the
young and old elbowed before its
blaze? Something has been changed
in the minds of men. Ceding to the
unhealthy desires they have broken
with simplicity. The fathers have
quilted their post of honor, the women
ve~etate by the solitary astre, and
the children quarrel among them
selves while awaiting the time when
each can go his own way
We must relearn home life and the
value of domestic traditions. A pious
solicitude has consecrated certain
monuments, the only remains of the
past among us. And pious hands have
gathered up old costumes, provincial
dialects, old songs, before they have
disappeared from the world. How
well they do, to guard these crumbs
Of a great past, these vestiges of the
souls of our forebears. Let us do the
same for the traditions of the family;
let us save and cause to last as long

MUSIC AS A THERAPEUTIC.
Mental and Physical Ills May Be
Relieved by It's Aid-One
Example of Use.

Much assistance is in many instances
to be derived from the intelligent use
of music, either vocal or instrumental,
as a therapeutic adjunct. Melancholia,
insomnia, hysteria, family affliction,
business reverses, delirium, pain
fatigue, mental or physical, will all be
helped by the beneficial influence OF
music, rightly used. AS a post-opera-
tive measure it would have an I'M
doubted influence for good in taking the
patients mind from his bodily distress.
So, also, could painless" dentistry be
relieved of some of its pain and distress
by the quieting influence of music,
which would, as has been amply demon
strated, produce pleasanter mental in
fiuence during the administration OF
nitrous oxide or other anaesthetic. A
German writer recently stated (Febru-
airy, 1900, that in a number of test
cases in which music was provided dur
ing the administration of the anaesthet-
&c there was an absence of distress and
resistance on the part Of the patient;
also an absence or reduction of the
post-operative nausea under the same
circumstances. To be advantageous the
nature of the composition must be care
fully selected with a view to the needs
of the individual case, and the execution
must be as nearly faultless as possible.
