There Is one consolation in having
the experimental station established
at Seattle. The law provides for the
of three stations year
and six more are to be established.
This means that probably every i'm
portant mining state in the west will
in time have an experimental station.
Idaho should be in position to secure
one of the three to be established next
year, and with one already in the state
of Washington at Seattle, we should
be spared the opposition of Spokane
to locating station in this state. Still
we must not be too ssre, for the "Spo-
kane spirit" is an uncertain factor
with which to deal. The fact that the
state of washington has one station
may prove no bar to demanding an
other for the Inland Empire"

Idaho is at least fortunate in having
elected two republican congressman,
Addison T. Smith and Burton l..
French, The experience of both will
prove of great value to the state when
the numerous questions of legislation
in which Idaho is vitality interested
are under consideration. In voting for
Smith and French and at the same
time supporting Wilson for president
the people of Idaho are placed in
peculiar position. On the big ques-
lions of party policy, the Idaho con-
gressmen will of course be opposed to
the president. For instance, on the
tariff the president will stand for the
traditional free trade policy of the
democratic party, while Smith and
French will fight for protection. 1t
would be interesting to hear an elect
or who votei for Wilson and the re-
publican candidates for congress ex-
plain the mental process which gov
erned his action.

ELECTIONS AND WEATHER.

just before election many city poll
ticians were considerably concerned
over the probable condition of the
weather on election day. They seemed
to think that the weather would have
a great effect upon the vote In the ag-
ricultural districts. They argued that
In case Of bad weather the farmer
would not go to the polls in the storm.
The fact of the matter is that the
weather has very little to do with the
question whether the farmer goes to
the polls or not. Some farmers will
go to the polls If 1t is too rainy for
them to work, while others will stay
away from the polls because they dis
like to drive on rainy day. Some
farmers take advantage of good wea-
Their to continue their farm work and
for this reason stay away from the
polls, while others take advantage of
a fine day to go to town. The wea-
Their probably influences as many ag-
ricultural voters one way as it does
the other The man who is really in
terested in the outcome of the politi-
cal campaign and feels 1t his duty as
a citizen to record his vote for the
party and the principles in which he
believes, will go to the polls regard
ess of the character of the weather.

Women in New York city to the
number of $4,000 are planning a par
ade to the city hall in New York to
demand that the mayor take steps to
relieve them from the high cost of
living. Three years ago, when the
democratic tariff law had thrown mill
lions of men out of employment there
were similar demonstra tons in the
effort to get the money with which to
buy food at any price. Now there is
plenty of employment due chiefly to
the revival of business incident to the
war in Europe, but coincident there
with there has been such a rise in
prices that the situation is not much
less serious for the great mass of con-
sumers.

Champ Clark says that the best
campaign speech he ever heard was
in Missouri when he asked an aud

why anyone should vote the republi-

The census bureau estimates that
the population of Idaho on January /,
1917 will be 436,Ss1, The estimated
population on January l, 1916, was
420291 an increase of 1860 during
the year. The vote for governor in
the recent election was almost l40,-
900, while the same vote in 1913 was
only 100000 in round figures. This
shows an increase in the vote of Ida
no in two years of over 10000, gain
equal to the total increase in popula-
tion according to the census bureaus
estimate, assuming that the increase
in 1915 was the same as this year. Ev-

ed of men and women of voting age.

MERlTED PROMOTION.
{. /. Herriok Advanced to superin-
tendent of the Hunter.

The announcement that c. L. Her
rick, for many years superintendent Of
the hunter mill at Mullan, has been
appointed manager to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Thomas Bren-
nan, was received with much salts
faction by all who know him. His
long connection with the Hunter com
pany and his successful work in over
coming the difficulties that at times
stood in the way of profitable opera
ton, have merited this advancement
to the management of the company's
affairs. Gus Almquist becomes sup
erintendent of the mill in which he
has been employed for years as a
shift boss.

1t seems likely that the. supreme
court will undergo an almost complete
change during the incumbency of
Woodrow Wilson in the White House.
Already he has appointed Justices Nc
Reynolds, Brandeis, and Clark. Three
justices, White, McKenna, and Holmes,
have passed the age of retirement.
Moreover Justice Day Is in very poor
health and it is considered unlikely
that he will continue on the bench four
years longer Out of nine members
of the court, therefore, Woodrow Will
son viii probably name seven during
his eight years in the White House.

RECENT COURT DECISIONS.
Railroad Right of Way.

A person who located mining
claim on the public lands and subse-
quently abandoned the same as a
mining location and Immediately re-
turned and established a homestead
residence upon the land is not in a
position to question the right of a
railroad to occupy and use a part of
such land for its right of way on the
ground that the railroad had no ca
pacity to accept the grant from the
government, where the appropriation
was made prior to the time 1t was oc-
cupied as a homestead residence, for
the reason that by the abandonment
of the mineral location the original To-
Gator had no interest in the land as a
homesteader at the time the railroad
acquired its right of way and con-
structed its road.

home folks are preparing to send
Christmas boxes to the boys on the

of the members of the Idaho regiment
have no family connections or imme-
date friends to see that they are re-

are not forgotten. About twenty men

Now that Governor Alexander has
two more years ahead of him, it is
hoped that he will lose no time in get
ting action on that north and south
railroad. Backed by a democratic
legislature, he should be able to &C.
complish more than merely sending a
group of political friends on a junket
over the proposed route. In other
words, the governor has INDUCED in
much talk on what he would do to-

state officers and republican legis-
lature. He has a free hand now and
it is up to him to make his talk good.

The Mystery of DEATH.
(selected)

We know not what IT is this mystery
of death.
This sleep so deep and still;
The folded hands. the awful calm
The cheek so pale and chill;
The lids that will not lift again,
though we may call and call;
The deep, white solitude of peace that
settles over all.
We know not what it means-this
mystery of death;
This desolate heart-pain
This dread to take our daily way and
walk in it again.
We know not to what other spheres
our dead who leave us go
Nor why we do not know.
But this we know: If they could come
this day--should come and ask
what is life?" not one of US could
say.
Life is mystery, as deep as death
can be.
And, oh, how sweet it is-this life we
feel and see
Then might they say-these vanished
ones-and blessed be the
thought
10, death is sweet to US, though we
may tell we naught.
I'VE may not tell it to the quick, this
mystery of death:
Ye may not tell us, if We would. the
mystery of breath"
The child that enters life comes not
with knowledge or intent;
SO those who enter death must go as
little children sent.
Nothing is known-but / believe that
God is overhead,
And as life is to the living, so death
is to the dead.

Ashland, Ore, Thursday, Oct. 20, '16
THE COUNTY TICKET

Voters of Ashland can not make a
mistake in marking their crosses op-
posite every one of the Republican
candidates for county offices.
The Tidings does not advocate
placing a man of unknown ability
or character in county office just
because he is of your particular poll
tical party. We do not and surely
you do not choose your office help
because of political beliefs, and when
you vote for a candidate for coun-
ty office you are hiring a man to
look after your business. But in this
year, 1916, it so happens that every
one of the Republican candidates is
a tried man of the truest worth and
every one is entitled to your vote.
G. NJ. Roberts for county attorney
is a brilliant young attorney whose
ability has been proven and who owes
no political machine or faction any
thing. He is the feasible candidate
in that he is absolutely free to en-
force the law as it stands without
fear and without hinderance.
G. A. Gardner for county clerk
needs no recommendation His rec
ord while county clerk of Jackson
county stands for itself. Under his
tenure of office the county's affairs
have been placed in superb condi-
tion which by the unqualified state
ment of unbiased experts, places this
county in class by itself in the state
of Oregon.
Chauncey Florey for county rec
order must, without detracting from
Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1916-10-26

Clerks Gardner's glory, be given a
just share of the praise which has
befallen Jackson county for success
full conduct of its business. Effic-
iency is the watchword around the
county recorders office.
E. w. (Curly) Wilson for sheriff.
If Mr.. Wilson could have his nick
name put on the ballot 1t would
mean votes for him as many hardly
know him by any other name but
then watch out for No. 60 and you
can't miss Curly. His popularity
throughout the county is exceeded
only by the high regard in which he
is held. During the past two admin
istrations of the sheriff's office, a
big proportion of the sheriff's work
has been handled by Deputy Wilson,
and handled in thoroughly satisfac-
tory manner. The tax work and other
routine labor has been studied care
fully and thoroughly by him and law
