Cleo Kirk, one of Ashland high's debaters, spoke at the unveiling of the Lincoln statue In the park Mon day afternoon.

Oldtst National Bank In Jackson County HUGHES IN THE LEADJN OREGON, Single Tax and Beer Amend ments Appear to Have Been Defeated. Portland, Or., Nov. Charles E. J Hughes probably has carried Oregon for president by a plurality that may .reach 15,000. ! Hughes is leading Wilson in Mult- nomah county by a narrow margin. Hughes is maintaining a good lead in most of the up state counties. He appears to have carried Benton, Clackamas, Clatsop, Columbia, Coos, Crook, Gilliam, Hood River, Klamath, Lane, Lincoln, Marion, Sherman, Til lamook, Wasco, Washington and Yam hill counties. His lead in Clackamas is small. Wilson is leading in Baker, Douglas, Jackson, Jefferson, Linn, Morrow, Umatilla, Union and Wallowa coun ties. W. C. Hawley has been re-elected representative Id congress In the first district and N. J. Sinnott in the sec ond district. Both are republicans. C. N. McArthur, republican candi date for congress from the Portland district, is maintaining a consistent and apparently safe lead for re-election over A. W. Lafferty and John A. Jeffrey, the democratic nominee. Ben W. Olcott has been re-elected secretary of state. Frank A. Moore, of Columbia coun ty, and George H. Burnett, of Marlon county, have been re-elected justices of the supreme court by substantial pluralities. Both are republicans. John D. Mickle, of Portland, was re elected dairy and food commissioner. The single tax amendment was over whelmingly defeated. Every county reporting has given a decisive vote against it. The brewers' bill likewise has been snowed under. The margin against it is large in the outlying counties. The absolute prohibition bill is run ning close upstate, and the result on this measure is in doubt. Unless Multnomah county goes heavily against it, this bill, which would pro hibit the importation of liquor, may carry. WEATHER FAVORS VOTERS Heavy Vote Is Cast Thrtughout the Country. New York, Nov. Fair weather, general throughout the country ex cept In the upper Mississippi valley and In western Colorado, accompanied by agreeable temperature, brought out the voting hoBts early today. Re ports from practically all sections In dicated that a heavy vote had been cast, and some points reported that the bulk of the vote was in before 10 a. m. All the New England states in their early reports of the voting dwelt on the heavy early balloting. Providence, R. I., reported that throughout the state it was the heaviest ever known. New York state and other middle Atlantic states reported an unusually large early vote, and similar reports came from the west and south. COUNT IN IDAHO IS SLOW ReturnB Are Widely at Variance, But Trend Towards Wilson. Poise, Idaho, Nov ,. The count In Idaho is exceptionally slow. Scatter ing returns are widely at variance, but the vote in the state capital trends towards Hughes. However, incomplete returns from the state at large show President Wil son leading by a substantial plurality. For the governorship, Alexander, democrat, leads by a narrow margin over Davis, the republican candidate. An exceptionally large vote was cast all over the state. In southwestern Idaho Robert N. Dunn is strongly in the lead in the non-partisan race for justice of the supreme court. C. A. Elmer, secre tary for the republican state central committee, claims ' Idaho for both Hughes and Davis. Representative Mann Re-elected. Chicago, Nov. 8. James R. Mann, minority leader of the house at Wash ington, on whom a vigorous fight was made by the drys of the second Illi nois congressional district, was elect ed by an indicated plurality of 10,000. Michigan Goes for Hughes. Detroit, Nov. 8. Democratic State Chairman Stevenson conceded Michi gan to Hughes by "a normal republi can majoritv." Michigan is normally republican by 100,000. Wisconsin Goes for Hughes. Milwaukee, Wis., Nov. 8. -Early re turns indicated Hughes running well ahead of Wilson and polling practical ly all the 1912 combined republican and progressive vote.

"Secret practice" is the order of the day, not because of the fear of spies from the enemy's camp, but because alsolute concentration upon the problem of building up a foot ball machine Is Imperative If Ash land is to beat Medford and that con centration cannot be gained with a crowd of well-meaning spectators de tracting the attention of the players from their study of the intricacies of football. On one or two nights out of the week, however, spectators are allow ed and the students improve upon this opportunity by staging rooting practice for the rank and file of the student body is determined to do its part by out-rooting Medford while the team is attempting to outplay the red and black. It Is all about the big game which is now just ten days away. On Sat urday, November IS, Medford and Ashland will clash on the local grid iron in their annual struggle, the struggle before which all other gamea become a secondary consid eration, and toward which the taper ing off process of both teams is di rected. Ask any high school student "Who won last year," awl you will prob ably not be favored with a direct answer, but more likely a grimly determined, "Walt till we get at 'em." Hut all the determination in the world will not remove the implac able fact, that the Ashlard team is sadly shot to pieces at prrsent with small hopes of reaching the ape of their possible strength by Novem ber IS, and that Medford has the heaviest, ninst well-balanced team of years, with plunging halfbacks who are demons and a forward passing machine which has never been forced to open up in any game this year. Ashland has a chance to win, and not a small chance at that, but from strictest comparisons of the two teams, there is about a two-toucJi-down superiority which Ashland will have to overcome by pure grit and the fighting spirit which has won for Ashland year after year in, the past. Figure the scores. At Grants Pass Medford won 13 to 0, Ashland 6 to 0. At Klamath Falls by the mere difference of two feet in kicking a goal the locals edged out a 7 iu 6 victory. Medford, when their team was an untried bunch of green men, held the, Klamath Falls bunch to a tie and scored 13 points. At Ash land the locals won from Klamath 13 to 7. Medford defeated Klamath 27 to 0 at Medford, and those who saw the game remarked the fact that Medford scored apparently at will and played a defensive game. The Grants Pass game at Medford can not bo considered as there is nothii.1; with which to compare it, Ashland having no return game prior to the Medford game. The one fact which stands out pre eminently is that Medford is getting better in each game by leaps and bounds while Ashland is gaining less slowly. If Captain Leslie Cunningham is able to get into the Medford game, the Ashland defensive wyi be Im The Eye of the Night Two-reel Keystone full of (rood laughs. proved considerably, and if Brower could recover in time, local fans would grant the red and white an even chance. But Cunningham may not be able to play this season, hav ing suffered a dislocation of three jvertebraes in his neck, and Brower I Is carrying an arm in a sling as .the result of a bad dislocation of a shoulder. There is no gloom around the foot j ball field but that quiet confidence which has prevailed before former games is gone and the team Is toil ing as Ashland players have seldom tolled before. It will be the greatest fight of football history in Southern Oregon. The battle will start at 3 P. M. a week from Saturday.
