SEASIDE WOMEN 10
IKE VOTES COUNT
COMING TO OREGON BY OX TEAMS IN 1843, FIVE OF 600 PIONEERS OF THAT YEAR ARE IN
YAMHILL COUNTY.
Fair Sex in Election This Week
Aim to Change Old Order
of Things Politically.
MEN AROUSED TO ACTION
8
Feminine Folk to Make Effort to Get
All Out to Polls Harmonious
City Council and Mayor
Taxpayers' Dope.
SEASIDE. Nov. 1. (Special.) Here
li one town in Oregon, now that the
women have a vote, where it Is the
opinion of some that by the women's
vote at the election next week the old
order of things where city Improve
ments promises are more of a hope
than a realization will be changed.
Just now the political pot is boiling
anil the women are furnishing the fuel.
The women are Injecting enthusiasm
Into the campaign, There has been a
Rood deal of opposition and criticism of
Ihe present administration. It Is blamed
for many of the needed Improvements
not materializing because of the con
stant disagreement between the Mayor
and the city fathers.
'Women Mean Business.
That the leaders among the women
voters mean business and ore taking
their first vote seriously was shown tho
other night at one of their club meet
ings. Male voters and candidates were
invited to address the meeting. The
men, so long as they kept to politics
and only told of what the city needed
and what they would do if elected, they
were allowed a free voice. One or two
of the male speakers lapsed back into
the old order of politics and began say
ing unkind things about their oppon
ents. Unfinished sentences and nicely
browned roasts died abornlmr. for the
lady chairman brought the speaker up
with a sharp turn.
While the women say one-fourth of
the female voting population of the
city registered, this does not represent
the entire women vote of the city.
Owing to tho doubt about the annex
ation of East and West Seaside, the
final settlement of the Question by the
Supreme Court did not occur until too
late to get the books ready for new
registration. However, this will not
affect the municipal vote cast, but un
less there are lots of votes sworn in
on the day of election many of the
women voters cannot vote on state
measures. An active campaign is on
to overcome this. Arrangements are
made to have freeholders on hand
Tuesday and votes will be sworn in
wherever possible,
ISO Women Register.
When Auditor Berry closed his regis
tration books 150 women had signed.
This means S66 votes to be cast. At
the last general election there was a
total of 216 votes polled. The women
are now working to see that every
woman who registered votes. They
have also sent out a call to all women
who make' their home in Seaside and
are entitled to a vote who are away
on a visit to hurry home so that they
can vote, even If they have to be sworn
In.
Although there Is no compensation
to go with any of the municipal offices
sought and party lines are not drawn,
the fight will be keen, for the lines are
drawn on progressive and non-progressive
principles. Only those in
touch with the situation can dis
tinguish from the list of candidates in
the field, which candidate Is progress
ive and which Is non-progressive.

JUDGE SEES TUSKS
Lane County Jurist Talks of
Good Roads Problems.
SUPERVISORS WEAK POINT
Movement Ought to Get Down to
Workable Basis la Assertion of
Mr. Thompson Institutes
Suggested as One Plan.
EUGENE, Or., Nov. 1. (Special.)
Imoortant as are bond issues and
Government aid and special highways,
these are only part of the great road
problem of the state," aeciarea
County Judge Thompson, of Lane
County, discussing the road situation
today. In every county in tnis iiaio,
unless perhaps it may be Multnomah,
there are miles and miles of roaas
Ihgl oro rr Tnfl In lil(rhwVR. The nrOD"
er grading and upkeep of these brfTnch
or feeder roads is the other great
problem of the authorities.
"Just how to get tne best results
in the working of these roads is a
problem that faces the County Court,
and calls for most careful considera
tion. Personally, I believe that the
members of the County Court ought to
see to it that every road supervisor in
the county has an opportunity to learn
more about the best methods of build-
lng roads, and is given every assist
ance In the task of making his three
hundred or four hundred dollars do
good service for his district.
Workable Baals Urged.
"For one thing. I think that the
good roads movement ought, in a large
measure, get down to a workable
baBis. We, of course, must have agita
tion and discussion or road plans ana
things of this sort, but more Important
still, I think, is the getting right down
to tell the supervisors how to throw
the dirt, how to provide proper drain
age and how to handle ordinary road
machinery. Here, I think, is the place
that the engineers of the state and
county can be of greatest assistance to
the rural roadbullders.
"A splendid way to get better results
In the building of roads in the country
districts is by the holding of road
builders' meetings. 1 believe these
should not be so much in the nature of
experience meetings, with talks by su
pervisors, as they should be of the na
ture of the teachers' institutes. There
Bhould be principally at these road su
pervisor meetings addresses by men
competent to tell others how to build
roads. Lane County had euch a meeting
of road supervisors last February, and
the result was plainly to be seen in
the road work of the last Bummer.
Another Institute of this sort was held
in connection with the County Fair:
the attendance was much better than
I had expected, and I believe the re
sults were well worth the time and ef
fort required,
Spectnl Efforts Necessary.
"What we have to remember is that
these rural road supervisors do not
make a business of road building. They
are ranchers in the main, and the road
building that they do is aside from
their regular occupation. Not being
trained for the work, the best results
cannot be expected unless they make
special efforts.
"The great majority of road super
visors, I find, take pride In their work,
and want to do the best they can for
their district. For this reason they are
ready, for the most part, to receive
suggestions, and to learn of men whom
they recognize as competent to give
Instruction. Supervisors not of this
mind should be weeded out at the first
opportunity.
"Lane County has derived a vast
amount of benefit from the road mod
els sent here by Logan Waller Page,
director of the office of public roads.
Washington. These models are kept all
the time in the county courtroom, and
I am always ready to explain them to
visitors. We received these models
nearly a year ago, and we keep them
on display all of the time. A rural road
supervisor cannot get into the court
room without almost falling over these
models.
"What we try most to Impress upon
the supervisors of Lane County is the
matter of drainage, especially here in
the valley where the Winters are so
wet. Next to drainage is the proper
surfacing of the road.

ST. JOHNS, Or, Nov. 1. (Special.)
City Attorney Oatzmyer is investigating
to ascertain if a special election can
be held. Eight or 10 tracts for park
purposes may be submitted and a bond
issue large enough to cover the high
est-priced tracts submitted.
The City Council has decided that the
citizens of St. Johns shall do their own
choosing of park sites and rejected the
recommendations of the special park
committee of four tracts. The Council
is considering the matter of submitting
on the same ballot nearly all the tracts
orrered, restricting the number select
ed to two or four.
If the City Attorney reports that this
can be done a special election will be
called in the near future. It is said
the report of the park committee was
rejected for the reason that the tracts
recommended were not distributed
where they would serve the largest
numDer oi people.

VANCOUVER, Wash., Nov. 1. (Spe

EAT LESS MEAT
IE BACK HURTS
lake a Glass of Salts to Flush Kid
neys If Bladder Bothers You.
Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a well-known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region;
rheumatic twinges, severe, headaches,
acid stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary ir
ritation. The moment yonr back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or If bladder
bothers you, et about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonf ul In a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon Juice, com
bined with llthla, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal ac
tivity; also to neutralize tbe acids in
the urine so it no longer irritates, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone:

Mr. Kiggins is credited with being

Elizabeth says: "I am troubled with
a constant headache which also affects
my eyes. My breath Is awful, as I have
a severe case of catarrh in the head
and throat."
Answer: I receive dally hundreds of
letters from people who have suffered
as you do and who have been relieved
with the following prescription: Make
a wash by mixing one-half teaspoonful
of Vilane powder, which you can pur
chase from any druggist in 2 oz. pack
ages, and add to this one pint of warm
water, use this In the nostrils daily to
thoroughly cleanse them. A catarrh
balm should be used with this. This is
made by mixing one teaspoonful of
Vilane powder with one ounce lard or
vaseline and apply well up Into the
nostrils twice a day. If this Is used
dally your catarrh should soon vanish.
It should, however, be used occasional
ly to prevent a return of the disease.
"C. G." writes: "Tf you know of any
thing that will cure dandruff, itching
scalp and premature baldness, please
let me know what it is."
Answer: For several years I have
prescribed plain yellow mlnyol as
superior to anything known for the
treatment of diseased scalp. Get it in
four-ounce Jars with full directions. It
quickly overcomes all diseases of hair
and scalp and gives new vigor and In
tense natural color to the hair. Try it
fairly and you will advocate its use
for your friends.
"Mildred" writes: "I am constantly
embarrassed because of the fact of my
extreme thinness. I have absolutely no
color in my face and lips and I am dull
and lifeless most of the time. Please
advise me what to do."
Answer: If you are so thin and pale
and your lips and cheeks are colorless
It Is because your blood is deficient In
red corpuscles. This can be easily
overcome by the use of three - grain
hypo-nuclane tablets, which can be had
from any druggist In sealed cartons
with full directions for taking. When
the blood is enriched by the use of
these tablets your weight will increase,
the color will come back into your face
and lips, and it will Improve your gen
eral system so that you will become
strong and healthy.
"Edna" writes: "I suffer with rheu
matism all the time and I shall be very
glad if you can tell me something to
relieve me."
Answer: I can give you a prescription
which will not only relieve, but should
obliterate your rheumatism. This is
my favorite remedy and from the num
ber of letters received from people
who have used it proves its value in
rheumatism. The following la made by

a chronic cough for almost a year, ami
catch a fresh cold every few weeks.
Nothing the doctor gives me helps, so I
write to you."
