who PAID FOR IT?
List of Contributors to Fund for
FrOhbach Examination and
Its Publication.

The Tidings, at the request of par
ties favoring the bond issue, went to
H. V. Richardson, who secured the
contributions for the payment for
Frohbachs work and for its publica-
tion and asked that the list of those
contributing to the funds therefor be
given for publication. Mr.. Richard
son complied and added that neither
Mr.. Malone or the Ashland Electric
Power and Light Company, any OF
the allied companies or any of their
employees either gave or was asked to
give one cent either directly or in
directly towards this fund, and that
any statement that they did is abso-
lutely and unqualifiedly false.
Because these parties contributed
to this fund does not mean that they
are opposed to municipal ownership;
in fact, several of them are in the
forefront of the fight for the bonds.
1t simply meant that the wanted
close examination of the affairs of
the plant. That the result differs
from what they thought or hoped
that it would be does not affect Mr..
Frohbach's integrity nor the correct
ness of the report. The following is
the list of contributors:

QUALIFICATIONS
OF A MAYOR

Years ago the question of license
for saloons was settled by the coun-
Gil. Thus the saloon question was
continually mixed with selection of
Officers. For this reason the people
of the town interested in separating
the saloon question from politics en-
gineered a new charter (the present
One), which took the licensing of
saloons out of the councils hands
and now the people vote For licens-
ing Saloons" yes" or no." and the
council is bound by the law and their
oath of office to act according to the
majority vote of the people.
Then why should we not, in max
ing our choice for mayor and other
city officers, measure the men up
with regard to their fitness for the
places? There are many very, very
important matters continually aris-
ing for the councils and officers ac-
tions on which the people have not
voted The council must act accord
ing to their ideas of what is best for
all the people. The saloon question
won't bother them in office. The
people settled it. And that question
should not bother us in selecting the
best men. If the candidate be con-
sidered the ablest man. If from his
past record he is good business man
and is law-abiding and would en-
force the law he should not be uues-
toned as to who or what he will vote
for on election day. Allow his equal
freedom of the ballot and honor him
for using it independently and hon
estly.
Then these are the questions:
Viii lhe make us a good officer? Will
he guard the citys interest and en-
force the law? Has he proven him
self a worker for Ashland's inter-
ests? Is he balanced, temperate, So
Der and conservative in all things?
Is he a good citizen, neighbor, hus-
band and father? Can you trust him
in private life? If so, that is all the
qualifications necessary for mayor.
Mr.. E. d. Briggs is such a man.
Let us act as our charter suggests
and get the best men regardless of
religion or isms. The saloon ques-
tion is settled, and even if not, it
must be settled by the people and not
allowed to interfere with election of
the best officers for the best and
sanest business business.
G. S. Butler and j. E. Hurt will
meet all your requirements for good
laws and lower taxes.
Yours for good officials and obe-
dience to vote of the people.
Endorsed by a large number of
taxpayers.

MAYORS STATEMENT
Endorses Statement OF Rosecrans
That Changes Will Improve
the Water System.
Ashland. Dec. II. 1912,

OSSs a
Editor Tidings: Having been
asked the question over and over
again what effect, if any, the pro-
posed auxiliary electric light plant
would have on our water system,
will you kindly permit me to answer
this question through your paper?
Should the plant be constructed as
proposed, the plans contemplate the
laying of larger pipe, or rather the
continuation of the same sized pipe
as is now in use at the head of the
upper intake for a distance of some
two thousand feet, on down to a
point on the south side of Crowson
hill. From this point all the water
that the smaller sized pipe continu-
ing on down to the city would not
carry would be diverted through
pipe to the proposed auxiliary plant
several hundred feet below, furnish
ing it the necessary power and empty
ing in the creek bed above the lower
intake.
1t would seem to be wholly imma-
terial whether the lower water sys-
tenn received its supply from water
brought to it through a pipe line or
from water reaching it by flowing
down the creek channel.
So, if my information is based on
facts, and | am morally certain it
is, there is but one answer to the
question, and that is: Should the
auxiliary plant be erected and the
water conveyed to it as indicated in
this article, it would benefit rather
than injure our splendid water sys-
TEN, the conservation of which is
devoutly wished for by every man,
woman and child in this city

Mayor of Ashland.

WOMAN VS.. WOMAN.


Two hundred? Did | get that
right? Oh, woman, you are your
brothers keeper, you are your Sis
ter's keeper, you are your fathers
keeper, you are your mothers keep
er, and most of all you are your hus-
bands keeper and your child's
keeper.
| am just woman, but it is very
hard for me to instruct another
woman, but if. this be true, that
Ashland is represented with two
hundred woman who are willing to
sell out all they have to the worst
enemy on top of Gods green earth,
| would ask you to halt, in the name
of our Creator; halt, in the name of
all creation; halt, consider we'll what
you ask for. Remember there is
record kept of all deeds done in the
body, and there is a great reckoning
day coming, when you shall give an
account of the trust that is put upon
you. All! you may say you do not
believe in God or Heaven or that
there is any hereafter. Yet there
are some things you cannot deny.
You cannot deny your very existence,
you cannot deny your very much felt
influence, not only while your life
lasts, but long after you lay the body
of clay at rest. Then | beg you, my
sisters, to weigh this sacred trust,
given you by your much faithful
brother; weigh it well. The use of
the ballot is a precious gift to you,
so let us as woman, mother, sister
and wife, oh let us be careful, think
hard, be honest to our fellow citi-
zens, treat them square, be loyal to
our trust. Yes, business is business.
We all want to be busy in honest
business. | hope and trust there are
not one dozen women in Ashland
who will vote for the awful, awful,
awful curse of the liquor traffic.

Yours respectfully,
LOUIS l.. WERTH.

The orchestra that was organized
a short time ago under the direction
of Miss Mary d. Sylvia and played at
the Catholic church last Sunday was
greatly appreciated. They played six
or seven pieces and every number
was well played. Miss Sylvia as well
as the players received many compli-
ment as they were leaving the
church. Miss Sylvia says they will
soon have a fine orchestra as the
members are all good workers. They
will play not only at the churches
but on all occasions.
