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.

Fruit trees are looking well, and
cherries are forming rapidly, nerrles

At the Oaks.
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

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

"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.

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."

and Mrs. G. A. Harding, of this city, has
