HUGHES GETS HONORARY
UNIVERSITY DEGREE

ANN ARBOR, Mich, June 10
The honorary degree of doctor of
laws was bestowed upon Secretary Of
State Hughes at the University of
Michigan commencement today
Secretary Hughes, in delivering
the commencement address, declar-
ed that international negotiations
cannot be successfully conducted in
the face of fire Of criticism from
a "clamorous public"
He asserted that the old European
diplomacy of intrigue was discredit-
ed by the world war. He insisted.
however, that a certain amount Of
secrecy is necessary even in Ameri-
cas- "open diplomacy" Premature
developments in the press or in pub

accomplishments Of the most enlight-

the insidious efforts of selfish inter-

abroad.

GOLD HILL is BECOMING
POPULAR WITH TOURISTS

Motoring days are here and the
paved road in both directions from
Gold Hill are as thick with cars as
robins in the trees. The Pacific high
way in Oregon is now in splendid
condition. Summer paving opera
tions are hindering the fullest en-
ioyment of motor travel, but this
early in the season the detours are
not nearly so bad as later, and thou
sands are taking advantage Of this
fact to reach their destinations in
the north, south or east before the
roads are cut up where the travel is
shunted off the main highway. With
few exceptions the route between
here and Portland is a boulevard.
These delays cause no impatience
to the Oregonian because it means
the completion of the entire paved
Pacltlc highway In oregon IN the
near future. In the vicinity Of Yon-
calla and in the canyon near Canyon
vile, paving operations will neces-
sarily put travel on time schedules,
as detours will be impossible. One
very beautiful bridge that will soon
be opened to travel is the one at
Myrtle Creek. The Willamette riv-
er bridge is now under way and when
completed will permit the travel to
use the west side of the river be-
tween Oregon City and Portland
cutting out the toughest piece OF
pavement in Oregon.-Gold Hill

FIRE CHIEF ASKS
THAT ALL DRY
GRASS Be CUT

Fire Chief Robson, in speaking
OF. the fire works in connection with
the Fourth of July celebration, says
that all dry and dead grass should
be cut and destroyed before that
date and thereby remove any chance
Of fire being started by spark
from any kind of fire works.
Many fires are started every
Fourth by fire works landing in
some unguarded spot, and with dry
grass on every hand, spark might
become a blazing forest destroying
thousands Of dollars worth Of tim
ber and perhaps causing the death
of many people.
The dry grass should be cut and
burned under the watchful eye Of
some responsible person who would
be able to keep the blaze under con-
troll and possibly save his property
from injury by fire through some
other persons carelessness.

HALL AND THE RECOUNT

From authoritative sources, the
Voter learns definitely that no an
nouncement concerning recount
demand will be made by Senator
Charles Hall until after the official
canvas of the primary election re-
turns has been made.
Efforts of certain newspapers to
forecast Senator Halls Independent
candidacy, at the same time infer
ring that the recount is certain. are
silly. If Halls state advisory com
mittee of lawyers, which, 1t is
claimed, is still functioning in
checking evidence pertaining to the
election results, should recommend
recount as the one means avail
able to substantiate what Is said to
be the sincere belief of his support
ers that Hall is the regularly nomi-
mated republican candidate for gov
ernor, then it is certain that there
will be a recount. Announcement to
this effect, however, will come in
due time from no one but Senator
Hall himself.
The absurdity of a premature in
dependent candidacy declaration is
evident when 1t is realized that
should a recount confirm alleged ir-
regularties and make Hall, not o.
colt, the nominee, then Hall would
be an Independent candidate against
himself as the regular party candi-
date
Possibly no great harm Is done in
Haunting the Independent candidate
threat at stated intervals by news
papers having a purpose in flaming
into motion the political atmosphere
But certain II is that there can b'
little gained in attempting to plac,
cand date for nomination for gov
ernor In such a ridiculous light
The forces behind Hall are deter
mined to use every means to get a
the facts which they believe exist
In the meantime what else can b,
done but wait for the official count

BUDGET COMMITTEE MUCH
ENCOURAGED BY RESPONSE

The budget committee canvassing
this morning consisted Of Chairman
C. H. Pierce and L. F. Ferguson, the
amount secured in THE mornings
canvass being $3.50.
The following new subscribers

been most gratifying, some being es-
pecially interested in the July 4th
celebration, while others are more
for publicity, normal school, and
other activities of the chamber of
commerce.
The total is to date $1SS3. Many
of the large subscriptions have not
yet been canvassed and it is hoped
that some who are interested and
have not hitherto been subscribers

Legend of Pocafeno

About so feet beyond the kitchen
ette in the auto camp ground Is a
seat built from stones in the form
of a grave. Dick Posey has woven
the following legend about this spot,
and, some day, when Ashland has
discovered the advertising value OF
such legends and monuments, 1t will
be fitted with headstone and a
cross, with small pouch receptacle
on 1t to hold a little pamphlet of this
legend. People would carry it away
with them as an interesting memen-
to of the Ashland auto camp, and
the word of mouth advertising thus
engendered would amount to thous-
ands of dollars in value to Ashland.
We would suggest that the park
board have the grave properly fin
ished, and the chamber Of COM
merce have this little legenn printed
by thousands and kept in the pouch
at the grave where visitors can get
them to send away.

Where urged the hidden foe;
And the hearts Of white and savage
Grew cruel with bitter hate,
While the shuttle moved relentless
In the growing web of fate.
And ever the fight grew fiercer,
And ever their hate more strong,
But the maiden stood undaunted
Cheering her braves along;
Then her lover sank down dying,
Waving a last goodbye.
She pressed a hand to her breaking
heart,
But her courage did not die.
And just as the sun was sinking
To Its billowy couch of rest,
A shot from the hated paleface
Sank deep in the maidens breast;
She cried as her slight form yielded
10 the bullets cruel kiss,
'Tis sweet to die for my fathers
tribe
And a beautiful land like this"
They buried her here in this win
some spot
At the rushing torrents side.
And they heaped great stones on her
tender breast,
Her beautiful form to hide.
We have fashioned those stones in
this rustic seat,
By the side of this rushing stream
(This is daught but a legend; II
might be true;
Perchance 1t is only a dream.)

No MANS LAND
MADE SAFE BY
PARK SUPT. DEAN

"No Mans Land" Is again a safe
place in Ashland. Park Superinten-
dent Dean has taken hold of the sit
uation with the idea of making Lii
thia park a place OF beauty FROM ev-
cry point of view, and is leaving no
stone unturned to make the park
more attractive as time goes on.
The strip of land along the park
ON Granite street, familiarly known
to the citizens of that section Of the
city as "No Mans Land" has been
cleared Of grass and weeds which
have stood since early spring. The
tract now presents more dignified
appearance, for which the residents
of that neighborhood are truly
grateful.
The walks in the park have all
been cleaned off and are now in fine
condition. They will be kept clean
of weeds, leaves and the like all
during the summer. The grass and
flowers are getting their share OF
attention and are both responding
nicely, and with frequent irrigation
should continue so. The grass along
the creek has been cleaned out, and
one may approach the water at any
point in the park without fear OF
getting lost or of stepping into some
unseen water hole.
Various other Improvements are
also being made from time to time,
all with the one purpose in mind,
that of beautifying Lithia park to
such an extent that it will be ever
remembered by all who see it.
