STRONG ENDORSEMENT.
Anti-Saloon League Is Out With .
Statement Endorsing Carlson
for Governor.

A. ], Finch. state superintendent
of the Anti-Saloon League, is out
with strong endorsement of George
a. Carlson for the republican nom
ination for governor. He also has
something to say about Sam Nichol-
son. who is Carlson's opponent in
the primary. The temperance peo-
pie of Otero county should be on their
guard, and see to 1t that Carlson is
given the full strength of the tenn
perance vote In the coming primary
election The statement sent out by
superintendent Finch Is as follows:
The democratic party has but one
choice for governor namely, Judge
julius c, Gunter, who is an accept
able candidate to the temperance
forces; hence, in the democratic par
ty there will be no primary contest.
But in the republican party it is dif-
ferent, and the temperance forces are
deeply concerned in the result of
this primary contest.
In 1914. the citizens of Colorado
not only voted for state wide prohi-
bition, but by an overwhelming ma
jority elected George A. Carlson as
their governor. They did this be-
cause OF his record as dry" man.
and because of his pledge to fearless
ly enforce the dry" law II 1t carried
at the polls. Since the day Governor
Carlson was elected he has more than
kept every pledge he made. and he
aided US at every critical stage in
the passage OF our splendid law on
forcement act. He has given time
and thought and energy to the rig
I'd enforcement OF the law In every
rsrt Of Colorado, and n ever a man
deserved vote from the temper
ance people OF this state on the rec
ord Of what he has accomplished
for them, that man is George A.
Carlson.

Rev. Carnahan Paws
Fine Tribute

The funeral services of the late
Miss Cherry Starkey were held Fri
day afternoon from the B. r. Greer
residence on the Boulevard. A large
assemblage of friends, old and young,
gathered, bringing loads of the flow
ers which the departed loved. Rev.
Carnahan paid high tribute to the
high ideals and unfailing spirit with
which Miss Starkey had met the trials
of life. Mrs. D. D. Norris and Mrs.
Earl Rasor rendered beautiful duet.
Several score of sorrowing friends
followed the remains to Mountain
View cemetery, where interment was
made.
Miss starkey came to Ashland two
years ago from Denver, Colo, and
had won a multitude of friends, to
whom her sudden passing, when she
seemed on the road to recovery, was
terrible shock. She is survived by
brother, E. ]. Starkey, of Heppner,
who came down to attend the funeral,
and other relatives in California.

Looks Like No
Merry-GO-Roun

The visiting children and the chill
dren of Ashland may have to forego
the pleasures Of merry-go-round
during the celebration for the reason
that the owners of same refused to
come to Ashland unless given a per-
NIT to run amusement games such as
throwing baseballs at niger babies,
shooting gallery, cane racks, etc. The
general committee consider these
games a matter of skill and not gam
bling as full value is to be given with
each purchase. Licenses for same
have been refused and an effort is
being made to have the council inter-
pret the law to such an extent that
will permit games of skill which are
pure and simple amusements.
Objection has been made to this
change for the reason that these
games lead to gambling and are not
educational and elevating; that boys
are now working in the orchards
earning money for the Fourth of July
and that they should not be permitted
to spend their money for such amuse-
ments. People will come to Ashland
for a good time and it is up to the
general committee to furnish amuse
ments such as the visitors will want
to have and for which they are bring
ing their money here to spend.
The actual dedication Of the
springs will take place on the even
ing of the 9Th and good speakers have
been provided, but to have all amuse-
ments in the form Of lectures would
be very out of place and disappoint-
ing to the visitors.

Stores Will Close
In the Afternoons

At a special meeting of the Ash
land Business Mems Association
last Tuesday night the matter of
closing stores was taken up and
thoroughly discussed. Merchants
representing all the different kinds
of business were present and partici-
pated in the discussions. The con-
sensus of opinion was that there
probably would not be much actual
business transacted during the after
moons, while the majority of the
crowd were out at the roundup
grounds, Motions were made and
carried to the effect that all stores
would remain open until noon on
the Fourth and remain remain closed
the rest of the day. On the 9Th and
9Th stores would be open, excepting
during the afternoon between the
hours of 1 and 4:3O, and remain
open as late in the evenings of the
last two days of the celebration as
the merchants thought practical.

SCandinavianS'
Picnic Big Success

Three hundred Scandinavian resi-
dents of the Rogue River valley gath
cred in Lithia PARK last Saturday,
and despite threatening weather,
which finally eliminated in brisk
showers, carried out a merry day of
entertainment, picnic and sports with
a spirit which no mere showers could
dampen.
The Ashland band played Scandi-
navian airs during the coronation
ceremonies. The picnic grounds were
gay with banners and flags of the
Scandinavian countries, with Old
Glory predominating the entire scene.
Miss Stella Anderson of Medford
was crowned queen of the fest. o. N.
Nelson, the president of the society,
pronounced in Swedish the corona
tion formula: Miss Stella Ander-
son, | crown thee queen of this king
dom" Mayor o. II. Johnson made a
profound bow to the queen, surren-
dered the keys to the city, delivered
neat little speech and sat down.
Miss Martha Raymond recited in
Swedish a poem of welcome, and G.
b. Mellin sang in the same language
several comical pieces. Little Mar
garet Friswold was dressed in the
national costume of Norway when she
sang.
The queens court was made up of
young ladies, each of whom repre-
sented country as follows: Miss
Lena Johnson, Sweden Miss Lena
Jorgensen, Denmark; Miss Helma
Ellestead, Norway; Miss Nellie Frick,
America. Miss Mabel Frohbach was
crown bearer and the following were
flower girls: Misses Eleanore Swed-
enburg, Genevieve Swedenburg, Ra-
mona Wise, Rosalind Wise Marguer-
ite and Bessie Friswold, Gertrude
Adams, Clara Anderson and Louisa
Adams.
All the young ladies. including the
queen, were neatly dressed in white,
with only a sash thrown across their
shoulders to indicate what country
each represented. The blending of
the various national colors of red
white, yellow and blue, together with
profusion of flowers, produced a
very pretty effect.
Chester Harvey, Marcus Woods and
James Friswold saluted with the va
rious flags.
The picnic dinner was of course a
big success. The afternoon was CIV
en- over to sports and folk dances of
the various counties were given.
The day was a great success, the
picnic being one of the most preten-
tious of the many held in the park
thus far this summer.

Many from Here
Visit Klamath

Several auto loads of Ashland
boosters for the Rogue River Round
up went over to the Horton ranch in
Klamath county Sunday and attended
picnic and rodeo held by the Klam-
ath county buckaroos. A jolly time
is reported and the klamath cowboys
are said to be enthusiastic over the
Ashland affair and to be coming In
force. Much rivalry promises to ex-
ist between the Pendleton and Klam-
ath contingents. Some classy buck
ers and riders participated in the
miniature rodeo Sunday, according to
those who went over from here.
Some effective advertising for the
Ashland roundup was accomplished.

Auto Service to
Roundup Grounds

With a seating capacity of ten
thousand people at the Roundup
grounds and the question as to how
to get the crowds there safely at
what reasonable charges for the SER
vice would be, the common council
met in special session last Wednesday
night for the sole purpose Of passing
such an. ordinance which would as
sure the successful handling of the
people.
Cars that run for hire to the
Roundup grounds are to be assessed
a special tax of so cents per seat on
cars to capacity of twenty, which
will give a five-passenger car an op-
portunity to run for $3.50, seven
passenger car $3.50, and a twenty
passenger car $40. All cars with a
seating capacity of over twenty will
be allowed to run for SO per car.
The route which these cars must
take is as follows; They shall keep
well to the right side of East Main
street to the Boulevard, thence out
on the right side of the Boulevard
to Iowa street; thence to the right
side of Iowa street to Wightman
street; thence down the right side of
Wightman street to city limits, where
they may load and unload their pas
sengers. In returning they shall
come directly on East Main street to
Third street; thence turn to the
right, down Third street; thence to
the left on B street to Pioneer av-
enue; thence left on Pioneer avenue
to East Main street, the starting
point.
The distance to the Roundup
grounds being only a small fraction
over one mile, it was considered ad-
visable to fix the rates to be charged
at 10 cents each way. Drivers shall
not pass another car unless such car
is delaying traffic, and in such cases
he must slow up and give the regular
signal to pass and use all care for
safety, etc.

curing license from the city record
er, will be subject to fine of not

and should be obtained Immediately
from Ben w. Olcott, secretary of
state, Salem, Ore.
The ordinance provides that all
license fees and fines be turned over
to the Springs Dedication committee,
and these funds will be used for the
general expenses of the celebration.

Achenbach, the German artist, enjoy
ed a vogue some years ago. A certain
collector had bought from an art deal
er a seascape represented as a genu-
inc Achenbach Afterward it was
pronounced to be a copy. The buyer
brought an action against the dealer,
who turned the tables by declaring
that his picture was genuine and the
other was copy. Achenbach himself
was summoned by the courts to tell
which was which. Amazed at the alb
solute similarity of the two paintings
he gazed at them for long time, in
spected them closely, front and back,
shifted them and then frankly admitted
he could not tell which was the orig
inal and which the copy.
