A. PA. TICKET IN
| MARION COUNTY
Folder Bearing Names Of
Candidates Endorsed Are
Distributed In Salem

The so-called A. P. A. ticket has
made its customary appearance on the
eve of election. Folders containing the
names of candidates of the organiza.
tion were left on doorsteps all over Sa-
lem last evening.
The candidates for Marion county en-.
dorsed are all republicans except Frank
Is. Ward, democrat, for representative,
and j.. ID. Ratliff, prohibitionist, for
representative, and the folder bears the
signature of Davidson Buchanan, Phi.
d., 975 Michigan Ave-, Portland, Ore
g0n.
The arguments set forth by the secret
political society which is now admitted.
ly cutting quite figure in Oregon elec.
tions, are mainly directed against pub
lie appropriations for sectarian schools
and virtually charges the Catholic
church with being a political machine.
Quite lot of bitterness will no
doubt be stirred up by this action,
since there are many voters who are
non-Catholic who hold to the principle
that secret political societies are un-
American and menace to popular gov
ernment.
Such a movement always cuts both
ways, like a two-edged knife, and will
probably lose the candidates endorsed
as many votes as it makes for them.
So far as can be aseertained there is
no Catholic running for office on either
ticket.
Candidates Endorsed

time that day. There were Marion and
Jessie and Gladys and Natalie. Airline

gether and came home together, and
they had been having fun lately sew
ing-making things for Christmas gifts.
Funny things they were, too, made by
clumsy little fingers: but, oh, how much
they would be treasured by father and
mother, brothers and sisters who re-
ceived them, for so much love goes
into the making Of gifts.
So the six little friends who had
been sewing for an hour since school
was out were now enjoying their
coasting on the little hill.
At the foot Of the hill was little

was such happy thought that the
six all ran scrambling and sliding
down the hill In a hurry to get home

Organization
For Cleaning
Up Needed

It has been intimaled to the Sig
nal by business man that the
stree t cleaning neements Of
the town are not entirely upon a
basis conducive to the best results,
and furthermore that the burden Of
taxation for such work is not dis
tributed equitably among those
who should bear a proper pro rata
of the expense. Each and every
property owner should share pro
portionately in the task of cle4ning
up the streets and the removal of
garbage. Good sanitation is a
necessary provision for an attract
i've town and a proper safeguard to
health. The methods employed
to secure these results should there
fore. be established upon some def
mite and well defined basis. With
this object in view, and acting on
the suggestion of other parties in
terested, the Signal issues this no
tice requesting meeting Of the
old Board of Trade, all property
owners and citizens for the purpose
above outlined. The Benson Lum
berand Commercial Company store
has been decided on as the place
of meeting, to take place Tuesday
evening, March 2Sth, at 1890. An
urgent request is made that all in
terested be present.
