Therefore I will east my ballot November 5th for Frank L, Ton Velio, mul I urge my friends to do likewise, mw OREGON, SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 2, 1912. Judge Crowell to Judge Dunn Mr. Dunn: Art you in favor of building county bridges on comity roads 'whore bridges are needed'? Then why are you silent as to the new Med ford bridge t ,. Why did you let your friend Mowers delay the county bridge on the-county road over Bear Creek iu Med ford 1 Are you in favor of keeping the fruit inspection ser vice of liitckHon (loiinly up to its present high standard' As a director of the First National Bank of Mod ford, why are you antagonizing Medford's rights and interests? You did nothing for the public roads of the upper Kogue JJivcr during the ! years you were County .Judge would you serve them the same way again, if elected now? What single thing of public benefit did you ever originate while you were County Tudge before? You cnn'tnanic any for you were simply a "drifter" and not a "doer" of things. That is whr vou were called "safe." Isn't this true, Mr. Dunn? I voted for you before, but I won't do it again, Mr. Dunn. Do vou know why. Mr. Dunn? If you do, ex plain it to the public, Mr. Dunn.

The laboring men of Cortland, to whom Mr. Colvig addressed his prin cipal remarks, are almost uuniiimou ly in favor of the bill, because, it will bring a great deal of eastern money into Oregon on tho sale of lioiitfo. Tho amount of road labor that will ensuo will employ all the idle hand mid teams in lite state, and tho re sult will bo we will havo good roads and tho money will bo largely left in tho hands of our own pimple.
