CANDIDATE FOR SCHOOL SUPER INTENDENT STATES POSI TION CLEARLY. CONSIDERS FIGHT DECISITE Great Importance to School System of County Weight Well the Question. The County High School question will be before the voter of Clackamas County in the June election. A vote to establish a county high school next June empowers the county court to fix the location, which means a county highschool at some one cen tral place supported by the taxpayers of ever district in the county. The districts not having this high school will be at a disadvantage to send their children away from home to the County high school, where the expens es will be as much as the State Insti tutions, r I believe In equal school privileges for every district In Clackamas coun ty. The law provides for the estab lishment of a high school by any dis- the people favor a central' County high school, and I freely admit that I should consider my election a stand by the people favoring high schools throughoutTthe county where popula tion makes it possible.

It requires a hardy man to smile calmly in tho face of death. Under the stimulus of patriotic excitement, in tho rush and strife of battle, men have done heroic things and have become noted for bravery. To cooly take ones life In hand and dnsh with It to the brink of tho grave with a smile on the lips and no tremor in the muscles is something which not everyone can do. Yet there Is a man In Portland toilny, who has often done this thlug, who, In fact, makes It a business to bravo death. He has looked tho black angel in the faco so many times that the sensation has lost its awe for him. This man is Harry Breton, who, when tho Oaks opens for tho Summer sea son May 1G, will make his bow to the people of Portland and vicinity in his daredevil nutomoble ride. Breton's ride is a sensation in Itself and throughout tho East has made him tho center of many scenes. He has an automobile made of steel through out and weighing something like 500 pounds. It Is equipped with a 314 bore power engine. This machine is driven down a steep Incllno constructed high In the air at a speed which after a swoop down a 45 per cent grade equals a mile a minute. At the foot of the in. cllne Is a gap of 25 feet and across this the car is driven. After the gap is Jumped, the car Is run out onto the roadway and brought to a standstill. Tho least swerving of the steering gear would send the driver to Instant death. The slightest lack of calcula tion would end the ride with the fu neral of tho driver. Many times Bre ton has had thrilling escapes but so far has escaped serious Injury. He will be the principal feature at the opening week of tbo Oaks beglulng May 16. Ramsby to Succeed Himself. Bad Attack of Dysentery Cured. "An honored citizen of this town Chauncey E. Ramsbv, the present was suffering from a severe attack incumbent of the office of Recorder of of dysentery. He told a friend if be . .,,,. could obtain a bottle of Chamberlain s Conveyances, has made a splendid re- Coc cholera anJ Dlarrhoea Remedy, cord during his two years in that ca- he felt confident of being cured, he paclty, and his efforts to do the will having used this remedy in the west, of the people at all times won for him an enviable position, and a very close relationship with the liner business Interests of the county, and the people who have had occasion to transact bu siness with him have found him true to the stable and honorable principles tli tit go to make up the backbone of our country. Mr. Ramsby has made quite an ex tensive canvas of the county and finds on every hand the people close adherents to the principles of econo my and straight forwardness followed by himself to the end that his work should show merit and receive as it has, the commendation of the' people of the county at large. Born and raised In Clackamas coun ty having the training in his younger days by parents who were none other than the whole souled Kentucky peo ple who instilled into the youth the principles of honor and thrift, Mr. Ramsby has not ventured from the paths wherein he was given such a magnificent start, and it is through these teachings and his own efforts that he has succeeded so well In the business world. He has served two years as Recorder with satisfaction and is the Republican candidate for the office to succeed himself. He was told that I kept it In stock and lost no time in obtaining it, and was promptly cured," says M. J. Leach, druggist, of Wolcott, Vt, For sale by Huntley Bros., Oregon City and Molalla.

Howell & Jones, Ore gon City. A. C. Tower will leave Monday morn ing for Mill City, Oregon, where he will superintend the installing of the machinery of the new Hammond Lum ber Company's ' sawmill. Four mill wrights of Portland will also leave Monday morning for Mill City, where they will assist In the Installing of the machinery. Mr. Tower expects to be at Mill City during the summer. Rev. Mulkey expects his family to Join him in his Gladstone home next week. "trlct that wants it or the consolidation of two or more for high school ad vantages, when they agree upon such arrangements. The consolidated high school would be near the homes of the children, where they could' attend after finish ing the lower grades. They would take a pride in their own high school and it would be an Incentive for the pupils In the . lower grades to remain In school longer and do better work, knowing they have a good high school near by to attend when they are prepared. Every district In Clackamas Coun ty should have the best school possible for the district or the consolidated districts to provide. There Is a very clear distinction be tween my belief and that of my oppo nent for County School Superintend ent; this difference is fundamental; I refer to his policy of centralization, making one County high school the goal, and my Idea of a high school for every locality with sufficient popula tion to maintain one. There is already to much that en tices the boys and girls from their comfortable farm homes to the hard ships and evil influences of city life. It is my belief that the day should be put off as long as possible that they must quit their homes to seek instruc tion in the higher branches and that wherever population makes it possi ble the high school should be placed in the community where the boys and girls are, rather than that they be sent away from home in search of it. The policy of establishing a single County high school, which is being ad vocated by my opponent, Is in direct opposition to this principle, which Instead of tending to build up community pride and centralized ef fort, would have the reverse tendency. On the success of myself or of my opponent at the June election, de pends the ultimate dispostlon. of this question. With this the real issue in the contest, the election of one means Mayor of Eugene To Speak. The aim of the local option people Is to make Clackamas County dry next June, the aim of the Saloon con stituency Is to keep It wet. In order that the problem may be thoroughly discussed a mass meeting will be held next Friday evening, May 15, 1908, at Shively's Theatre, corner of Seventh and Madison Streets, at which the Mayor of Eugene, the Hon. J. D. Mat lock will tell "How Eugene Gets Along Without the Revenue from the Licensed Liquor Saloon" and the Sa loon keepers of Oregon City have been Invited to make the strongest defense possible in behalf of their business on the same night and from the same platform. Here Is an exceptionally good opportunity for the people of the city and all are cordially invited to hear the discussion. Many, especial ly the voters who are dubious regard ing their vote ought to be present on Friday night. The Most Common Cause of Suffering. Rheumatism causes more pain and suffering than any other disease, for the reason that it is the most com mon of all ills, and it is certainly gratifying to sufferers to know that Chamberlain's Pain Balm will afford relief, and make rest and sleep pos sible. In many cases the relief from pain which is at first temporary, has become permanent, while in old peo ple subject to chronic rheumatism, often brought on by dampness or changes in the weather, a permanent cure cannot be expected, the relief from pain which this liniment affords is alone worth many times Its cost. 25 and 50 cent sizes for sale by Hunt ley Bros., Oregon City and Molalla. Saved From Being a Cripple For Life. "Almost six or seven weeks ago I became paralyzed all at once with rheumatism," writes Mrs. Louis Mc Key, 913 Seventh Street, Oakland, Cal. "It struck me in the back and extended from the hip of my right leg down to my foot. The attack was so severe that I could not mpve In bed and was afraid that I should he a cripple for life. "About twelve years ago I received a sample bottle of your Liniment but never had occasion to use it, as I have always been well, but something told me that Sloan's Liniment would help me, so I tried it. After the second application I could get up out of bed, and in three days could walk, and now feel well and entirely free from pain. "My friends were very much sur prised at -toy rapid recovery and I was only too glad to tell them that Sloan's Liniment was the only medicine I used." Miss Nleta Harding, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G.
