It is vitality important that every
Ashlander shall vote at tomorrow S
election. There has been growing
tendency in Ashland to take 1t for
granted that measures which the
average voter believes should carry,
will carry. The average voter there
fore often neglects to register his
vote at all, being sure Of the success
OF the measure, and the minority,
who for one reason or another are
against the measure, register a vote
which comes perilously near to de-
feating, and ofttimes does defeat,
the good measure The man who Is
against an amendment always votes.
The man who is in favor Of It is Of
ten inclined to let the other fellow
do his voting. II is the bounden
duty Of every owner Of the right TO
vote TO cast that vote at tomorrow's
election. The voting places are:
First Ward-Voting place, Fourth
street fire station building.
Second Ward-Voting place, Nc
Carthy hall, corner Main and Gran
ite streets
Third Wsrd-voting place, city
hall.
The polls will be open from 9
o'clock in the forenoon to o'clock
IN the afternoon. Vote early.

Northwest Going
After the Tourist

The northwest is going after the
tourist, that part Of the American
public which spends s7O0,O00,0OO
each year for its vacation.
As yet. with the greatest combina-
tion Of attractions and the finest
summer climate in America, the Pa
cific northwest has received very lit
tie Of that money.
Attractions of Washington, British
Columbia and Oregon have never
been placed before the public as "one
tour" We have made the mistake Of
allowing each community TO do its
own advertising for its own indiyid-
ual attraction.
The result has been lot Of wasted
money and effort. We did not pos
sess the agencies for distributing our
literature so that It would reach the
right hands. We had no representa-
tiyes in the centers Of travel. No one
community has had the money to ad-
yertise its attraction On large scale.
As a matter of fact, few men in
each Oregon community have done
the advertising. The few men sub
scribed the money that was spent.
But 1t is now generally conceded that
the tourigt dollar benefits every indi-
yidual. The farmer gets large piece
OF it because the tourist buys farm
produce done up as meals wherever
he is. He buys something Of every
thing that Oregon has to sell, inclu-
siye of much labor.
That being true, It Is right that
every citizen should bear his proper
proportion of the cost Of attracting
the tourist here. But that proper
tion could never be maintained
through a subscription list, so the
right way is for the state legislature
to proyide the necessary money and
to create commission to work with
out pay in looking after its expendi-
ture. The money should be pooled
with similar amounts from Washing
ton and British Columbia, and it
would be the duty Of the Oregon com
mission to see that Oregon secured
its equal amount of advertising and
service.
In brief, that is the plan for organ
izing the North Pacofic Coast Tourist
Association, now being prosecuted by
representatives Of the commercial or
ganizations Of the three districts.
Oregon representatives will ask the
legislature for $4,000 per year for
two years. Washington will give a
similar sum, and British Columbia a
somewhat smaller amount.
Then the association will open
eastern headquarters, in charge of
well-informed persons, and will begin
a campaign to sell vacations in the
northwest.
1t is the only sensible plan that has
ever been worked out for getting the
tourist. 1t has been proven feasible
by California, Colorado and Switzer-
land. California makes tax levy to
support her tourist bureau, and she
gets $2OO,OOO,OOO every year from
vacationists.
Californians admit that their state
has nothing in a scenic way that is
comparable to Oregon and Washing
ton attractions and that our summer

The devil not only finds things
for idle hands to do, but he finds
thoughts for idle brains to think
and words for idle tongues to
say. All of the vices of child
hood are nourished in idleness,
and almost anything that pre-
vents the ldleness will also pre-
vent the vice, 1t is the fact that
our city children, at present time.
have nothing to do in the time
when they are not in school,
that makes the playground
problem the great problem that
it is.
The habit of idleness, for men
in youth, grows naturally in the
adult into loaiing and all that
series of crimes that are attend
ant thereto. "The boy without
a playground is father to the
man without a job," and the
man who is not willing to work,
finds it necessary to make his
living in some easier way. which
can only come through begging,
gambling, stealing, or some
other illegitimate method.
