Sheldon Believes
Normal Will Reopen

Although no big stir has been
made in Ashland over the campaign
for reopening the Southern Oregon
State Normal School, the committee
managing the campaign is leaving no
stone unturned in the state at large
so far as it is possible to influence
the minds of the people by reaching
them through the avenues that deal
with public opinion. Besides various
other methods, Ben Sheldon, vice.
president of the Medford Commercial
Club and secretary of the Medford
Charter Commission, is accomplish
ing a splendid work.
After his two trips in the klamath
and Coos Bay districts he left for the
north and is now in his fifth week s
work. Making Portland his base, he
has been to the Columbia country, to
Astoria, and worked The Dalles
Hood River, Pendleton. Weston, La
Grande, Athena, Baker City and 9TH
er eastern Oregon points. Complet-
ing unfinished work in Portland, he
took a weeks tour on the west side
of the Willamette Valley and will
return to Portland in few days and
will be ready for the Oregon State
Fair, which opens at Salem Monday
That will be an occasion for meeting
influential people from all parts OF
the state and it will be utilized.
The Forthcoming state conventions
of the Federated Women's Clubs OF
Oregon and Mothers Congress-P
ent-Teacher Clubs are receiving at
tention as we'll as other bodies taking
notice of issues affecting the genera
welfare. Mr.. Sheldon has sincere
and earnest interest in Southern Ore.

took up this burdensome work in the
hope of accomplishing something

reading his reports. They are not al
good, neither are they all bad, bu
they disclose what those familiar
with the work have always contend

Mr.. Sheldon's visits have removed
many obstacles, and though his re

MuZzle or Muscle
King ChantiCler

During a recent conversation with
one of Ashland's visitors, who came
to her limits to feed upon the beau
ties of the city and to enjoy soda
water and to regain lost bodily vigor
as a result, he informed me that
we had one of the most annoying
things in the city that he had ever
come across. His hearer listened
with astonishment to this declaration
and asked what it could possibly be
in a city so picturesquely nestled
among the hills and overhung with
perpetual skies of ethereal blue;
what thing could possibly furnish an
noyance to a visitor?
He replied that every morning
when he was doing the blissful
slumber of early dawn he was kept
awake by the Growing of various
cockeres all over the city. He de-
scribed it as being "a community
rooster conversation" He believed
that such noise should be stopped.
Hence, If the people of the city OF
Ashland wish to cater to the tastes
of the tourist public, they must hire
Burbank or some other vegetarian
and get him to invent some new spe-
cies of rooster that does not crow
except in a whisper. Or an appeal
to the city council might be raised
that they muzzle roosters as well as
dogs. There has been a suggestion
offered that all city farmers send
their pet feathered bipeds to the
country every summer, while the
health-regaining public is endeavor'
ing to sleep in the mornings. Per-
haps the easiest and best way to gel
rid Of the bothersome medley Is to
muscle the rooster instead of muZzle
him, and serve him up to a Sunday
dinner at which all relatives are pres
ent. Or, be charitable, and invite
your minister to dine. 1t is surpris'
ing how voluble the suggestion of
chicken dinner will make him. H'
will interest the whole family will
his jokes.
All owners OF growing mongre
stock will please try some OF the fore
going remedies. l. B.

Ole
Peoples Forum,
A Martyr for Peace.

Editor Tidings: While the accusa-
tions against Christianity and social
ism, charging them both for their ut
ter failure to prevent the present
bloody spectacle in Europe, are flying
thick and fast, we who have long
known that martyrdom is Gods way
of humanity's uplift, lift up our
heads knowing that society's redemp-
tion draweth nigh, when we read the
following clipping from the Oregon
Journal of September 13, giving
brief description of the career and
death of one of many of our heroic
leaders, who now wears a martyrs
crown. The noble leader led a mar
tyr's life and it was quite fitting that
he died martyrs death:
'The assassination of Jean Leon
Jaures was one of the most sensa-
tional incidents of those tragic days
in which the great war had it's be-
ginning. He was dining in a restau-
rant in the Rue Montmartre, by an
open window. From across the street
come two shots and Jaures fell for
ward with both bullets in the back of
his head. The assassination was evil
IDENTIFY we'll planned, for Jaures often
ate in the place, and shortly before
he was killed telephone message to
the cafe asked if he was there. The
assassination took place while France
was debating whether to go to war.
Jaures. as an exponent of peace, was
vigorously opposing war. His assas-
sin was a student, supposed to be a
Russian.
Like Liebknecht, Jaures was the
bitter foe of Imperialism, large stand
ing armies anu. compulsory military
service, and he was almost as obnox-
ious to the kaiser as is the German
socialist leader. In 1906 a sensation
was caused in Grance and Germany
by the refusal of the kaiser to permit
Jaures to deliver an address to the
socialists in Berlin. Jaures was to
have spoken on the task of the social
list democracy in the preservation of
the worlds peace, and the solidarity
of the international proletariat. The
speech, published in Jaures' newspa-
per, L'Humanite, was a powerful ap-
peal to socialists to adopt a common
program against militarism and the
capitalists and to work together for
the cause of peace. 1t declared that
If France, Germany or Great Britain
went to war with either OF the other
powers, it would prove a great dis
aster to the whole world, each coun-
try being necessary to civilization and
each having a noble aim.
"Jaures entered politics in 1885
but not as a socialist. He was a re-
publican then. He was elected to the
chamber of deputies on his first can
didature. 1t was not until he was
, defeated for reelection in 1889 that
: Jaures became a socialist. In 1893
Jaures was returned to the chamber
and became one of the socialist lead
, ers. In 1889 he failed of reelection
He was reelected in 1902 and from
that time until his death was almost
} continuously in the chamber"
When our accusers read the above
they ought to hang their heads in
, shame. When the censorship is re-
, moved and the truth is known, doubt
less the noble Jaures is only one oI
many martyrs for peace. 1t is the
accused ones who will bring peace
but How long, o Lord, how long,?
Yours for peace.

Call to Women
Of America

The day has come for the Ameri-
can woman to wake up to her duty
to the industries of this country. Our
common people have paid a terrible
price to establish them, but they
never can be developed to their place
and power without her aid and slim
ulus. Now is her time. Temporar-
lily, at least, the maelstrom which has
sucked in all Europe deprives her of
supplies. This is her time to learn
what her own country's industries
can do, and to rally with all her in
fluence to their support, urging them
to make the things she wants, pledg-
ing them her allegiance.
The world has seen in these days
wonderful outbursts of patriotism
We have seen men and women liter
ally begging TO be taken to theL
country's aid. Is II only war which
is to stir men and women to effort
and thought and sacrifice? Has pa.
triotism nothing TO do with peace
with the daily efforts of men?
To keep the American people al
work through this crisis; to show the
world what patriotic peace means
as opposed to patriotic war to Offer
at the end OF this struggle a picture
of the fruits OF each so striking that
men can never forget it-that is ouI
duty as a nation. One Of the most
substantial contributions that the

Women Oppose
MIR. Chamberlain

I'VE are nothing but practical pol
iticians," insists Mrs. Jessie Hardy
Stubbs, present chairman for the
Congressional Union for Woman Sut-
frage, who is working in opposition
to all the democratic candidates for
congress.
"No, there is not a bit of senti-
ment connected with our fight. The
democrats have turned us down at
Washington and now we are out to
defeat the democrats. 1t is not re-
.venge that we are after, but results, :"
said Mrs. Stubbs.
"All that we want is suffrage. The
democrats have given us to under
stand that we can't get it while they
are in office, so we have set out to
get the democrats out of office.
ANY practical politicians will rec
ognize that as political eXpediency. "
Then Mrs. Stubbs gives extracts
from current reports of congressional
activity to show that political eX-
pediency' largely governs the mo-
tives and actions of all political par
ties in framing legislation.
1t so happens, she explained, that
the democrats are in power at Wash
ington. If they have considered it
expedient to ignore the appeals of the
suffrage organizations in their ef-
forts to adopt a resolution providing
for a suffrage amendment, Mrs.
Stubbs and her co-workers propose
to show the democrats that they act
ed unwsely.
"Yes, we expect to make it so hot
| for the democrats in this campaign
that they will be forced to place a
suffrage plank in their platform two
years from now" Mrs. Stubbs de-
clared.
"But | warn them that then it will
be too late-too late.
Il predict now that every one of
the parties-democra and republic
ans, as well as the socialists and pro-
gressives-will indorse equal suf-
frage at it's national convention in
1916. The socialists long have been
with us. The progressives had a suf-
frage plank two years ago, but il
wasn't because they were crazy about
suffrage. 1t was political expediency
that's all.
81 know about that progressive
plank, for wasn't at Oyster Bay fol
seven months and didn't they have
to talk to Colonel Roosevelt for near
ly that whole time to convince hin
that it would win some votes to in
dorse suffrage?
Now, if the republicans and dem
ocrats indorse suffrage two year
from now it won't be that they low,
suffrage. 1t will be through politi
cal expediency. We know that, bu
we don't care what are their motives
so long as we get it. Get it, that
: all we want.
The time for propaganda work
past. The time for cold, hard politi
cal action is here.
That's what we are doing in thi
campaign. We are out to defeat tn
democrats, because we realize ths
as a political proposition all thos
questions can be handled onl
through political party. An ind
vidual member of congress is but

SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't Stay Gray Here's an Old-time
Recipe That Anybody Can Apply.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur fer
restoring faded, gray hair to its ma
tural color dates back to grandmoth-
er's time. She used it to keep her
hair beautifully dark, glossy and
abundant. Whenever her hair fell
cut or took on that duh. faded or
streaked appearance. this simple mix
ture was applied with wonderful ef-
feet.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for 50-cent bottle
OF 'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy" you will get this famous
old recipe which can be depended
upon to restore natural color and
beauty to the hair and is splendid
for dandruff. dry, feverish, Itchy
scalp and falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nohobdy can tell it
has been applied. You simply dam
pen sponge or soft brush with ii and
draw this through your hair, taking
one strand at time. by morning
the gray hair disappears, and after
another application or two. it be-
comes beautifully dark, glossy, soft
and abundant.
