Ashland has limited the number of
saloons to five and has probi ibited their
being located in the main business
section of tha city. There are now
four saloons in that town and they
pay license of $500 year each.
Grants Pass has l2 saloons and after
July 1st their license will be 5000 a
year instead of $400 as now. Medford
las 10 saloons and Jacksonville four
saloons, they paying but $40O year
license Merlin has never had sa.
loon but a petition is now being circu-
lated in that village to be presented at
the April term of county court for a
license for a saloon in that prosper
ous town. The law and order people
of Merlin will be on hand with re.
monstrance and as they are in the
great majority in that section of Jose
phine comfy they will be certain to
kill the whiskey sellers petition.
Forest Grove. handsome prosperous
town of 200O popuation in Washington
ounty and where is located Pacific
University, has won its fight with the
liquor dealers association in backing
up man who attempted to open a
saloon in that college town and his
place of business has been closed. The
or ;ginal owners Of the tow site plan.
ned that it should be clean, college
town free from the pitfalls for
students that the saloons would bring
and every deed to property sold con.
tanned a clause that prohibited the
sale or giving away Of liquor on the
premises. The liquor dt alers sought
to have this clause OF the deeds set
aside and to that end brought suit in
the circuit court Judge Mcbride OF
the Fifth judicial district has de.
cided the deeds are valid and that the
or ginal owners Of land can reserve
any right pertaining to it that they
see fit, so long as the deed so specifies
that reservation and the purchaser
buys it with that understanding. As
the orig ginal owners OF the land on
which Forest Grove stands reserved
the right to sell liquors on it the pres
ent owners cannot engage in the bust
ness. The supreme court has affirmed
Judge McBride's decision, as has been
the ruling Of the supreme court in
several other states where similar
cases have been tried.
This decision in the Forest Grove
case will be far reaching in its effects
as there are number of other towns
in Oregon In which there are lots on
which the sale Of liquor is prohibited
by a special clause in the deeds. The
college trustees winning the Forest
Grove case will encourage land owners

or additions to town, to forever pro.
hibit the sale Of whisksy, beer. etc. =,

their DEEDS.

s a number of acts of Frank Bur
er that had made him enemies. Hf
said that in building the ditch, which
offended some few people. because he
| wanted it run his way and would not
| give ear to every Tom, Dick and Har-
ry, who had and would profit by the
undertaking that he had fathered.
h Then he had made some enemies
| according to this gentleman because
he wanted Palisade to grow and at
| the same time wanted other sections
of the county to grow also. In aid
| ing his desires he was willing to see
most anything started for the good of
| Palisade and that section. And much
talk of this kind was spoken by this
gentleman.
We responded that for all the enc
mics that Mr.. Burger had made un-
|. der such circumstances he should
i nave been given crown of laurel, be-
cause in doing what he had done it
provided the means of agitation and
it is disturbance that helps to make
things move.
There is not foot of ground be-
tween Palisade and Grand Junction.
over which Frank Burger has not
driven and walked and hoped and
longed to have become productive
and upon which some happy faDsily
would be living and thriving.
Do you think there is anything
wrong in that kind of a MANI,
Are you not sure in your own mind
that such man on the commission
er's board would do things. beside
thinking of the per diem and mileage
that he could make off the county in
ais position.
In our mind we believe that in
your best judgment you think it is
best to elect such a man to transact
business for you. If you think so, lei
is invite you for one time in your
life to vote for a man who has ac-
complished something, an unselfish
man, one who is as anxious TO see
your property grow, as he does his
own. He has proved this doctrine
time and time again and we believe
chat the road, which no man knows
better than Mr. Burger knows Is
needed between Palisade and Fruita.
connecting the two towns and this
,ity will be built and many other
changes made beneficial to the whole
people, done on purely practical busi-
ness lines.

HE Is WORTH WHILE.

There is hardly an individual in
Frank Burger. Mr.. Burger is Dem
ocracy's candidate for the office of
county commissioner. His opponent.
Mr.. Secor. is doubtless a good man.
but does anyone connect the name of
Mr.. Secor with the things and condi-
lions that have made this valley
what 1t is. So far as we have heard
Mr.. Secor is held in high esteem in
his section of the county. Mr.. Secor,
though. is not known in the art of
country building. He is man whom
we understand has attended to his
own business strictly, which is n most
admirable trait, but it don't build
towns and cities and upbuild rich sec
tions of country. If all men had been
modelled in Grand Junction, after Mr..
Secor's mold. there would not be as
much of Grand Junction as there is at
present.

A gentleman observed to the writ

had made some enemies and we utter
ed mental thanksgiving. as we were
then sure that he had been unselfish
and had done something for the
country in which he has lived. In re-

were somewhat polite and asked
upon what grounds he had made the

There is considerable opposition
throughout the county, in both part
les, against a woman holding the po-
sition of county superintendent of
public instruction. This fact was de-
veloped several years ago, when the
Democracy of this county placed in
nomination most estimable lady,
who had been teacher in the schools
of the city for a number of years and
who ran far behind the average OF
the ticket. A man was elected at
that time and it does not appear
that the feeling against women in
that position has changed very mater
tally. for some unknown reason.
