Certificate of Water Measurement: We, the undersigned citizens of ABhland, Oregon, being invited by the Ashland Springs Development Committee to participate in the meas urement of the water flow of the New Lithia spring, do hereby certify that we were present at the New Lithia spring on this date, that we assisted in the measurement of the flow of said , spring at three p. m. on this date, the second day of June, 1914, and that the nominal flow of said spring measured fifteen gallons per minute. . " We further certify that there were about 125 other citizens present at the time. O. H. JOHNSON, Mayor, GEO. W. SEAGER, , , W. E. NEWCOMBE, E. N. BUTLER, . IRA SHOUDY. B. M. SHOUDY, CHAS. B. WOLF, C. W. ROOT, R. P. NEIL, H. A. CARNAHAN, E. M. STANNARD, EDWIN P. HUGHES, J. H. McGEE, M. C. HAST, F. H. WALKER, W. A. TURNER, K. A. ESTES. Anyone who doubts that Ashland people are interested in the Mineral Springs Project should have been out at the New Ashland Lithia Spring five miles east of the city Tuesday afternoon at two-thirty when fully 150 prominent citizens gathered to see the spring's flow measured to Ket tle a false rumor that the spring was flowing but four gallons per minute Instead of twenty-three as the project committee contended. The foregoing signed statement shows the finding of the citizens. The people were carried out to the spring in twenty-three autos and sev eral horse-drawn vehicles one of the former being E. T. Staples' Stanley Steamer Mountain Hack bearing nine teen people and making the hills as readily as if they didn't exist. With few exceptions the people present were voters and taxpayers and about one-third of them were womeri who take.vltal interest in public affairs. Several careful measurements of the spring with the apparatus at hand showed a flow of fifteen gallons per minute. The decrease from twenty three gallons was somewhat puzzling to the members of the Development Committee until the discovery was made that the drill hole in the rock at the bottom of the spring was filled with and. Not having any tools at hand td remove the obstruction, the committee said nothing and let the record stand at fifteen gallons. The drill hole referred to is an inch and three-quarters in diameter and forty-two inches, deep. The spring flowed fifteen gallons per minute when first blasted out. After the hole was drilled into the bedrock seam It flowed twenty-three gallons per minute. To the unprejudiced mind iV is easily conceivable that it will do bo again or better when the spring is finally perfected. The lithia water as it bubbles from the spring is clear and cold and sparkling and has a very agreeable taBte to the average mortal. The spring is not picturesquely located as to immediate surroundings and would be hard to develop on the grounds where it is located in the rocks on the bank of. Emigrant creek. The trip out is a pleasant one and later on when Ashland becomes famous as a resort 'city a big sanitarium with beautiful grounds will undoubtedly flourish at the site of the old lithia springs higher up on Emigrant creek. School Election On June 15 The school district of Ashland will soon be called upon to elect a di rector in place of J. P. Dodge, whose term expires this month. For reasons best known to himself, Mr. Dodge" declines a re-election. He has served faithfully and well during a period which called on the part of the board for the exercise of rare tact and good business judgment in the handling of the complex matters of the district, notably so in regard to the construction of buildings, the em ployment of teachers, and the general upkeep of the schools. To continue this work, now so ausplcously under way, demands the attention of the best talent obtainable. Many friends of Dr. G. W. Gregg have prevailed upon him to be a can didate for the office. The choice is a wise one, inasmuch as the doctor possesses all the qualifications. He la broad gauged, conservative in a required measure, yet progressive in everything that stands for the well being and advancement of Ashland's model school system. The term is for five years, and the electors should see to it that no mistake Is made in the election of a competent director. i ne election is to be held June fif teenth.
