Mr. Langhorne, Manager of
Beebe Kinney's Going
Out of Business Sale,
MaKes a Statement
to the Public
On the very eve of this big store
closing its doors forever, I desire to
Impress you with the fact that if you
are at all concernod about your
pocketbook and the saving of many
dollars, you must not, In justice to
yourselves and family, fall to take
advantage of the truly wonderful of
ferings to be made Saturday. I am
fearful that a great many people do
not realize what they are going to
miss when this store quits. Take, for
instance, shoes. They continue to
advance In price and dealers see no
hope. "Is there any limit to the
price to which shoes may advance?"
Is the perpetual query of many peo
ple. The sky Is the only answer that
can be given at this time. Tet we
can give you relief, but you must act
quickly. There must be no delay.
One of Ashland's best women, who
can afford to go to Portland or San
Francisco for her shoes, has bought
four pairs for herself during the past
week. She Is wise very wise. Sat
urday we are going to sell shoes that
you will be paying $5.00 for at $1.98;
shoes that you will be paying $6.00
for at $2 .48; shoes that you will be
paying $7.00 for at $2.98. Better
than that, to fifty women we are go
ing to sell fifty pairs of shoes at
$1.75, $2.00 and $2.50. You will
never see it done again. Just watch
the prices go np after this store
closes. Take another item, that of
hosiery. Manufacturers cannot guar
antee dellveiy even at the higher
prices. Neither can they guarantee
the dye. Only last week Meier &
FTank, Portland's big store, adver
tised the famous Black Cat hosiery
lit the special price of 25 cents per
pair, the very Identical hose we are
poing to sell Saturday at two pairs
for 35 cents. I could go on and fill
this entire paper with reasons why
you should avail yourselves of the
many bargains that will be thrown
out Saturday for the last time.
Wimer Makes
Signed Affidavit
State of Oregon, City of Ashland,
County of Jackson ss.
I, John B. Wimer, being duly
sworn, depose and say that the report
that has came to me that I have con
sidered withdrawing from the race
for Recorder on a proposition to take
the Chief of Police job is false and
untrue.
I further certify that such propo
sition was put up to me on De
cember 9, 10 and 11 and was flatly
turned down by me each time for the
reason that I am not bound or tied
to anyone and cannot be Influenced
to sacrifico myself even for a sure
thing, much less a promise between
lines that if I would withdraw I
would be appointod Chief of Police.
I further certify that I have not
considered sacrificing myself in the
estimation of my friends for political
purposes, that this affidavit is for no
other purpose than to correct, such
report, and to let the people know
that I am still the loading candidate
for Recorder.
To all of which I hereby certify.
(Signed) JOHN B. WIMER.

C E. Gates, Mediord
Strickland Warns
Against Fire Risk
The crowded condition of the
stores and the increased quantity of
inflammable material exposed dur
ing the Christmas season renders it
important to the display man that
the electrical wiring in the vicinity
of his display shall be practically de
void of hazard and that the nature
of his decorations and their arrange
ment shall be such as to reduce to a
minimum the danger of fire from
electrical or other causeb.
In the furtherance of these objects,
the display men in many of the larg
er cities are actively co-operating
with the electrical inspectors in their
effort to exclude hazardous electrical
features in connection with such dis
plays, and are eliminating the use of
cotton batting and other material of
a readily inflammable nature for dec
orative purposes.
It Is now generally recognized that
the careless commingling of glaring
lights and inflammable merchandise
constitutes an objectionable rather
than an attractive feature, and the
general substitution of safer and
more pleasing modes of illumination
in show windows and display rooms
is proof of the fact that there is no
real conflict between the demands of
safety and the aim of the dlsplayman
to exhibit his goods to the best pos
sible advantage.
Owing to the more prevalent use
of lamps of high cnndlepower, the
danger which always attends the ex
posure of paper shades or other com
bustible material to the heat of in
candescent lamps has been greatly
increased. This danger is always
greater in show-window enclosures
or other confined spaces where the
ventilation is poor. To avoid such
risk it is, therefore, necessary that
all Inflammable merchandise or dec
orations be kept at a safe distance
from lamps and sockets.
It is undesirable to use tinsel or
other metallic decorations in the im
mediate vicinity of lamps as they are
liable to work their way into the
sockets and cause fire from sliort
clrcuitlng. Wires used as supports for mer
chandise are liable to become alive
If attached to lighting fixtures from
which current may leak. It is, there
fore, important that all wires and
supports used for this purpose shall
be suspended from structures that
are mechanically secure and not lia
ble to electrical derangement.' ,!
It is especially desirable that all
temporary wiring in the vicinity of
the display shall be mechanically
and electrically secure and kept out
of reach of the careless or inquisitive
shopper.
As many fires in show windows
and display rooms are caused by
small defects in the wiring not read
ily observed by inexperienced per
sons, or from the use of electrically
operated specialties and signs of un
approved design, it Is very important
that the Inspection authorities should
be consulted in respect to the safety
of such wiring and devices before
e.ny attempt Is made to operate them
electrically. In brief, it Is only
through united action on the part of
those .who have an immediate con
cern in safeguarding the interests of
the merchants and the public that
the danger of fire from defective
electrical display lighting features in
the stores can be avoided, and to that
end the co-operation of the display
men is earnestly and cordially so
licited. A. L. STRICKLAND,
Inspection Dept., City of Ashland.
