Local Artilerymen
Anticipate Payday

Several of the Oregon Coast Artil.
lery companies have received pay fol-
the months prior to January, 1917
and hopes are high among the local
men who drilled faithfully all last
year that payday for the 1st company
may not be far distant. The hope Is
based on the grounds that several OF
the companies which have already re-
ceived pay had no better attendance
records than the local company. A
certain percentage Of attendance was
necessary.
The Eugene Guard speaks as fol-
lows Of pay of the artillery companies
in that city:
National Guard pay automatically
doubled with the increase in regular
army pay. Units Of the guard are
paid one-fourth the pay of regular
army men. Thirty dollars month is
the pay for private in the regulars.
Accordingly, national guardsmen will
get $3.50 a month for their four
drills. The End company received
pay for drill six months previous to
January, 1917 last Saturday. Next
checks will come about July /. All
men enlisting since January will be
paid at this time, according to Cap
tain Svarverud of the End"

Armory Crowded
For Commencement

The twenty-sixth graduation exer-
cises of the Ashland high school,
which was held in the armory build
ing Thursday night, attracted one of
the largest gatherings of citizens that
have met for any event this year.
The entire lower floor and the bal
cony of the building were crowded
with the many friends of the gradu-
ates. The stage was tastefully deco
rated with the class colors, green and
white, but the usual predominance of
flowers was slightly diminished on
account of the unusually late spring.
However, the friends of the graduates
saw to it the local greenhouses and
California flowers supplied each of
the class members with an arm load
of the floral compliments.
The evenings program was short,
we'll regulated and entertaining. J..
A. Churchill, state superintendent Of
instruction, delivered the address of
the evening. He complimented the
class on their remarkable record,
number and the fact that 81 per cent
of the class of 1917 have signified
their intention of going on to schools
of higher learning. He told of the
high standard with which Ashland S
schools and instructors are regarded
by school men of the state and fin
ished his talk with a masterful ad-
dress about the requirements and fu-
ture needs of the high school gradu-
ate for a life of usefulness. Ernest
Abbott gave the class prophecy and
Leith Abbott gave short talk on the
class sentiment of the senior class In
their hour of elation. The diplomas
were presented by Fred Engle, presi-
dent of the school board, who con-
graduated the class on their success
on behalf of the school board and
who wished them the greatest of sue
cess as alumna of the school. Rev.
Carnahan gave the invocation and
the benediction was offered by Rev.
G.. s. Vine. The high school orches-
ira made the evening enjoyable with
several well-rendered selections and
the graduates sang their unique class
song in a creditable manner. The
program was brought to close by
the singing Of "The Star Spangled
Banner" the words of which were
printed on the back Of the programs.
The singing of the song was made
doubly impressive as twelve of the
boys of the graduating class are mem
bers of the local Coast Artillery Com
pany, and in weeks past 1t looked
doubtful whether the boys would
have the pleasure of accepting their
diplomas in person.

Digest Of Measures To Be
Voted on at June Election

introduction of a total Of 80 and
house committees to a total of 60
bills. This would limit the number
of bills at any session to 45O, exclu-
sive Of appropriation bills. The
amendment also raises the pay of leg
islators to Sc per day, with a total
per diem to each member of not more
than $500 for each regular session,
the equivalent Of full pay for a 90
day session. The adoption of the
amendment would very probably re-
suit, in practice, in the lengthening
of the regular session from 40 to 90
days.
The voter who desires to limit the
number of measures introduced and
to raise the pay of the members from
SO per day for 40 days to SO per day
for so days should vote 1904 X
Yes; those opposed should vote
1906 X No."

Proclaimed Holiday

Portland, Ore, May 2S, 1917.-By
official proclamation OF Governor
Withycombe, War Census day, June

Proclamation.
Whereas, the president of the
United States has designated June 5,
1917, as the day upon which our citi-
zens shall register in accordance with
the provisions of the selective draft
law, and
Whereas, on this day we face gi-
gantic task new in our national his
tory and one whose proper conduct
can only be attained through the unit
ed cooperation of every citizen, and
Whereas, it is vitally desirable that
the registration be accomplished with
thoroughness and dispatch, both as
a testimonial to the efficiency of our
democracy and as a neral example
stimulating to our allies and depress-
ing to our adversaries, and
Whereas, it is especially fitting
that this occasion be made one of
patriotic festival fittingly celebrating
the nations unity and the willingness
of its citizenship to serve our flag
and to make sacrifice, if needs be, in
righteous cause,
Now, therefore, l. James Witty
combe, by virtue of the authority
vested in me as governor of the state
of Oregon, do proclaim Tuesday, June
5, 1917, as War Census day, and l do
further declare it legal holiday, be-
lieving that by so doing the purposes
above set forth will best be served
And l call upon the patriotic men and
women of Oregon, and their sons and
daughters, to make Of this day an
occasion memorable in the history of
our state, marking, as it does. a great
forward step in the efficient utiliza-
tion Of our manhood upon the side of
democracy and justice in the world
war, to the end that world peace may
the sooner be restored and perma-
nently assured.
In testimony whereof have hereto
set my hand and caused the seal of
the state Of Oregon to be herunto af-
fixed this 26th day of May, 1917.
JAMES WITHYCOMBE,
Governor.

For the information Of the voters
of the state, the following brief 'di-
gest of all proposals to be submitted
to the electroate at the special cleo
tion of June A has been prepared.
Effort has been made to state the
real purport and result of each pro-
posal without bias and solely for the
information and possible guidance Of
the voter in deciding the attitude he
desires to assume at the polls:
Constitutional amendment, re-
ferred by the 1917 legislature, first
on the state ballot, entitled Author
izing ports to create limited indebt-
edness to encourage water transpor-
tation."
This proposes to amend section 8
of article II of the state constitution
in such manner that the people Of
any regularly created port district
may, by direct affirmative vote on
a specific question, raise funds, by
direct tax or otherwise, not to exceed
l per cent of the assessed valuation
of all taxable property within the dis
trict, to be expended as a bonus to
aid in the establishment of water
commerce between that port and both
foreign and domestic ports.
The constitution at present pro-
vides that no municipal corporation,
by direct vote of the people or 9TH
erwise, can raise money for, or loan
its credit to, any joint company, cor
poration or association whatever.
The amendment makes an exception
to this rule by giving the people of
port district the power, by an af-
firmative majority vote of all per-
sons voting on a proposal, to author
ize a direct tax or a bond issue with
in the limits noted above, for the
purposes mentioned.
The voters who believe that the
people of port district should have
the authority to tax themselves in
such manner and for such purpose
should vote 1900 X Yes';; those who
oppose granting such authority
should vote 1901 X No."

Help To Spread
Hyiu Advertising

Wednesday being Memorial day
and all the stores intending to close.
many Ashland auto owners will take
the day for automobile trips. and IL
Is the earnest desire of the roundup
advertising committee that every car
which leaves Ashland should take
along some of the advertising ma
terial and help spread the good word
about the roundup. Every autoist
should consider 1t his duty to tack
up few posters or at least to hand
out few handbills.
AT Greive's.
Greive's cigar store is headquarters
for the supplies of advertising and
all autoists should stop there for
their supply before leaving town.
The roundup committee has got out
a classy bunch of posters. folders and
handbills and has the material to ad-
vertise the roundup as no celebration
has ever been put before the public
in this part Of the country before. Il
is up to the citizens generally to do
their share.
Especially does the committee want
literature taken to the districts off
the main highway. Brownsville.
Eagle Point, Evans Creek, Rogue
River, Applegate, Hit and Yreka are
but a few Of the communities which
the committee will appreciate having
help in billing.
