Pests
That crawl down your neck and a score

EXTRA SESSION
Of the City Council He'll "Wednesday y
Afternoon.

An adjourned meeting of the city
council was held Wednesday after
noon with Mayor Valentine in the
chair and all members present ex.
cept Aid. Hewitt
The principal business was to
consider the telephone franchise
and TO pass the street improvement,
ordinances.
Aid. Norton of the finance com
mittee was in favor of immediate
action OH the telephone franchise.
He wanted certain restrictions
placed upon the company as guar.
antee of good service, but believed
both the city and the company
should make concessions. He was
willing to cut ont the clause in the
franchise requiring the payment Of
Ia per cent OF the gross receipts
TO the city. IL thought IS years
was long enough time for the life
of the franchisc. The proposition
to accept the io. cent rate to Linn.
ton looked good to him. But some.
thing should be done and tha,
promptly. Immediate and good
service was imperative, aud the
sooner il was obtained for St. Johns
the better.
The Portland telephone franchise
was read aud the recorder and city
attorney werc instructed 10 make
the proper comparisons Of the Port
land iranchis, aud the one asked
for by the Pacific States Co.
The street improvements ordered
for Charleston, Hayes and Monteith
streets were tnkCnup aud ordinances
passed ordering the work.
On motion OF AID. Dobie the or
dinance in reference To storage OF
the public dock was amended 80 as
To include outgoing as well rs in
coming freight. 10 the effect that Il
shall not lie on the dock longer
than lS hours.

How 10 Break Up a Cold.

II may be a surprise to many to
learn that severe cold can be com.
pletely broken up in one or two
days time. The first symptoms of
a cold are a dry, loud cough, a pro-
fuse watery discharge from the
nose, and a thin white coating on
the tongue. When Chamberlain $
Cough Remedy is taken every hour
on the first appearance OF these
symptoms, Il counteracts the effect
of the cold and restores the system
to healthy condition within a day
or two. For sale by Jackson 5
Pharmacy.

ELECTION
A Spirite Contest and Prohibition
Is Defeated.

- DNtNdlNus
The election last Monday settled
for a time the much discussed ques-
ton as to whether ST. Johns Will
be an open or closed town as far
as the sale of Intoxicating liquors is
concerned Prohibition was the
main issue and it was defeated by
the narrow margin of seven votes.
TO decide the issue two precincts
Nos. 66 and 67-were combined.
In Precinct No. 90 there were ~
votes cast, with a majority of two
against prohibition. in Precinct
No. 81, comprising the city of St
Iohns, 426 votes were cast. Out
of this number 343 voted OH the
wet and dry question. The result
was in doubt until the last half
dozen ballots were reached. Out
of the 3I3 ballots marked IA were
v<pS wet and f69 dry, giving a
majority OF five for the vets out of
3A3 ballots marked. These FIVE
votes of No. 81 and the two votes
of No. 90 in favor of an open town
gave the anti-prohibitionists a ma
iority of seven. l.ighty-hve ballots
were unmarked Oh the prohibition
issue.
While there is some talk the
general opinion is that there will be
no contest. Each side is satisfied,
and the whole matter will probably
be allowed TO rest until the next
general election.
There was considerable confusion
in regard to the registration OF vo-
ters. Probably between IS and IS
voters had to be sworn in, neccssi-
tating needless delay and causing
considerable comment
For the governorship Chamber
lain received 2o2 votes against iS7
cast for Withycombc
For 4. 5. senator Gcarin received
us votes to Bournc's 100.

strong.
The amendment to the local OPP
lion laws giving the prohibltlonistS
and anti-prohibitionislS equal privi-
lcgcs was defeated by a vote OF 2IS
Ia I3o. This vote can be accounted
for by reason that many did not
understand the wording on the ballot.
