Council Refuses to Put Change to Vote The proposed change of jurisdic tion over the parks, which in the form of a charter amendment was drawn up by Attorney Moore and revised by the trustees of the Com mercial Club and turned over to the city council, was allowed to die a natural death as far as the council is concerned at Tuesday's meeting. The amendment will probably be brought before the people for their vote by Initiative petition since a change of some kind Is conceded nec essary and the board of trustees of the Commercial Club offer the amendment as their solution. The trustees of the Commercial Club are J. W. McCoy, G. H. Billings, W. E. Kewcombe, Henry Enders, H. O. Frohbach, C. W. Banta, C. B. Wolf, C. B. Lamkin, F. H. Walker, M. C. Reed, V. 0. N. Smith, Frank Jordan, Hal McNair and Fred Wagner. The council discussed the proposi tion for a half hour without the formality of taking It from the table and finally let It stay on the table. Mr. Banta opened the discussion with the statement that there were three factions In the city, one of which favored turning over the wa ter system to the park board, the turning over the water system to the council, and one turning both pipe lines and park to the council. Mayor Johnson suggested that the last might seem the most efficient be cause of centralization of power In the one head, but It was pretty hard now to find men who would under take the work which befell the lot of the councilmen who do not have to worry about the water system or the parks at present. Mr. Banta stated his belief that the city coun cil could handle the pipe line more economically than any other depart ment, also that he believed the back ers of the petition should Initiate it. Frank Jordan suggested that by the council's placing It before the people, the cost of Initiating it would be Baved and an economy ef fected. He stated: "Fourteen men have agreed upon this amendment. If the council wishes to take over the water system they should also take the park, because the two must be handled together to make a suc cessful resort out of Ashland. The whole thing should be placed in the hands of a commission of able citi zens who can devote their efforts solely to making a resort of Ash land." Clauses of the amendment which did not suit some of the councilmen were discussed, but none moved to take the petition from the table. Apparently Do Not Fear Fire The matter of allowing the city fire-fighting apparatus to leave the city in case of fires near the city limits has been a question to the city officials. Some time ago a commit tee was appointed from the council and property owners of the vicinity of Ashland invited to get together with the council to discuss the mat ter and make arrangements for firel protection. According to a report made Tuesday night by Chairman Banta of the committee, none of the residents outside the city have tak en up the matter, and unless they do In the near future, the matter will be dropped and the chemical engine and other apparatus which would be of great assistance In some kinds of fire will be ordered to remain In the city. 3 r. ! Perhaps there are special reasons why New York has an epidemic of Infantile paralysis. Complaints are made in the New York papers that a dead horse lying in the street, al though reported to the board of health, was left to decay In a crowd ed neighborhood as undisturbedly as if it were on the prairies, and that in one city block three dead cats, also reported to the board of health, are still lying waiting to be buried. Thus Infantile paralysis can show cause. 3 B PRICES size Mxl Mx.Hi 3.1x4 34x4 34x4 35x44 36x4 37x41 37x5 Plnln Saviito Crip Cr.ifinite Tn-ad Tiead Tubes 110 01) $12.1)0 $2 70 U 1.25 3.25 H.M 17.40 3 50 W-H 22 55 4.45 I5 IMS 4 50 21 59 24.75 4.70 tt'O 32.10 5 75 2! 25 32.51 5.90 30 00 34 SO 6.00 33.00 37 95 t.W Adlntnnt M basil ol 4500 miles. ftkeisaWf I lo cam ullkoul notln more v V It's not what you pay, but what you get for what you pay that counts.

TIRES FACTORY DISTRIBUTORS I C E. Gates, Medford Council Attends To City Business The city council met in regular session Tuesday evening and after the minutes and routine reports had been read, heard City Engineer Walker's report on the proposed damslte which is regarded as a fu ture possibility. The matter of arrangements for the Commercial Club rooms in the city hall was cared for as elsewhere reported. W. H. Hodklnson, the Jeweler who has recently re-opened the Smith jewelry store in the Elks building, petitioned that he be given permis sion to place an electrically lighted watch sign on the front of his store. The permission was granted. ' ' '' Earl Rasor's damage claim and Mrs. Delsman's offer for the B street lots of the city are elsewhere re ported. The proposition of the widening of Park avenue was discussed. The water commissioner was In structed to investigate a needed sewer extension in the neighborhood of the Holmes store on the Boule vard and procure the material and Install the sewer. ' Some tar paint which was put on the pipe between the intake and the power house, failed to stick in places where exposed to the sun and by authority granted by the council the superintendent will construct a roof or shoulder out of one by tens over the pipe in the exposd placs. ' At this point Mr. Ashcraft moved that when the council adjourned, it be to meet Friday evening at 7:30 to close up the sale of the two pieces of city property which are being sold, one to Mrs. Delsman and one to W. B. Holmes. After a half hour's discussion of the petition asking the placing of the proposed charter amendment be fore the people at an election, the Council adjourned. Swingle Cow Will Have to Evacuate During 'the past two years, with surprising regularity, complaints have come in at almost every council meeting from residents in the vicin ity of the barn owned by Mr. Swin gle, complaining against It as a nuis ance. The council has had several committees wrestling with the prob lem and trying to solve the solution of disposal of the objectionable fea tures of the barn. No means were found, and as a last resort the board of health, consisting of Dr. Gregg, Dr. Swedenburg and Councilman Nlnlnger, Inspected the property and decided that the livestock would have to be removed and kept out of the barn, which was deemed a nuis ance. Notice was served upon Mr. Swingle to move his cow to sorrfe place where she will be more appre ciated and the barn will probably ac cede to the march of progress by becoming a garage. The Countess Von Bernstorff, wife of the German ambassador, who re cently arrived In New York from Co penhagen, has been in Germany since August, 1913, and undoubtedly could give us some Interesting au thentic Information about conditions there, If she would, but undoubtedly she won't. . , See the new spoon-bill and torpedo caps for young men and boys for 76c and up to $1.50.

Ever as I wander down life's path There seems an unseen hand Beckoning, beckoning unto me To enter a mystic land. A land so near and yet so far, That a gulf seems just between, And yet I hear and can not see Yet this guide is there I ween. And my heart seems ever longing To enter the mystic land To drink at the fount of knowledge, And grasp that beckoning hand. And so I sit me down and write The words that came to me. Each poem is the revealing Of the mystic things I see. Phone Job orders to the Tidings. Classified Advertisements TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY. Mr. and Mrs. T. M. Lynch and Mr. and Mrs. G. T.
