AS TO THE COUNTY CLERK
Where the office fits the jcandl
date the Tidings Is in favor of wo
men for office. They are legal vot
ers and citizens and are entitled to
all the benefits of that citizenship.
Especially would we favor Miss
Flora Thompson for an office where
clerical ability was the main requisite
for she is hardworking, conscienti
ous and an expert stenographer and
typist. She has done the county
' good service In the county clerk's
office.
However, under the Oregon law,
the duties of county clerk are num
erous and complicated and in many
instances call for the best experienc
ed business judgment, such decision
as only wide business experience can
properly direct. The county clerk
has supervision of the clerical work
connected with the county and circuit
courts not only, but Is exofficio mem
ber of the equalization board and
now wll be recorder of deeds, be
sides, having charge of the district
road accounts, bounties and all elec
tions. The duties are numerous and
many persons feel that It is a place
where a wide and intimate knowl
edge of the county generally is neces
sary for the best administration of
the office.
Chauncey Florey Is a candidate
against Miss Thompson in the repub
lican primaries. Both cannot be
nominated. It appears from the pure
ly business view, and that Is the view
that should maintain In considering
the fitness of candidates, that the
vide business experience of Mr.
Florey better equip him for the place.
Mr. Florey has had valuable exper
ience in the assessor's office which
qualifies him as a member of the
equalization board and he has had
experience as recorder with titles of
the county. Besides, Chauncey has
been a good and faithful servant and
deserves the advancement he craves.
He Is married and has two children.
Is a native of Jackson county and has
proven one of the most popular can
didates to be voted on In the past
elections.
The Tidings hopes Ch'auncey will
be nominated and elected and that
he will make Miss Flora Thompson
chief deputy in charge of the clerl
cal work of the office.
Industry emphasized the extent to
which we had come to depend on
German-made products. Who can
not recall the occasion of the sub
marine running the blockade with a
cargo of dyes, and with what joy
they were received In this country?
The war awoke us to the humiliat
ing fact that this country same far
short of being self-sustaining. It
demonstrated to us that without the
goods of other countries, Germany
especially, Industrial and social life
In America was badly crippled.
But the war has another effect. It
has caused us to seek out the lines
of endeavor in which we were defic
ient and set about to remedy that de
ficiency. This we are doing more
fully as the time passes. For In
stances, we- hear no more complaint
of the scarcity or inferiority of dye
stuffs, from the fate that American-
made dy-jstuffs have fully taken the
place of the German article, and ap
pear to be giving general satisfac
tion.
General chemistry is also a line In
which we have heretofore relied al
most wholly on Germany, this from
the fact that American chemists were
not willing to undergo the rigorous
study and reBearcvh necessary to at
tain high standing in that line. But
this too Is fast becoming changed,
and in a very short time, If not al
ready, American chemists will be ful
ly the equals of any In the world.
In fact, we are just now waking
up to the fact that there are a num
ber of lines of industry, wherein we
have heretofore been content to rely
upon other peoples, that, if we are
to maintain our position among the
nations, we must master and con
duct for ourselves. We have been
too deeply absorbed in what we term
ed the big things of life, and many
smaller matters that, nevertheless,
play an important part in the econ
omy of life, have been negleced.
If the war, viewed purely from
an Industrial or commercial stand
point, shall have caused us to stop
Ashland voters will be glad of the
opportunity to cast their ballot in the
republican primaries next Friday for
George A. Gardner for county judge.
Mr Gardner has always been a great
favorite with Arhland voters. He
has filled the" office of county clerk
for two terms and his fair and cour
teous treatment of these with whom
his dapartment transacted business
haB won for him a host of friends
who will be glad of the opportunity
to advance him to the more respon
sible position.
Mr. Gardner, through his long ex
perience as county clerk always in
close touch with the financial affairs
of the county together with his solid
business judgment renders him
probably the best qualified man In
Jackson county to administer the fi
nancial affairs of the county In an
economical and satisfactory manner.

CANADE THISTLE IS
CAUSE OF GRAIN LOSS
"The greatest loss to grain crops
In our district Is by Canada thistles,"
writes D. F. Surge, route 2, Albany,
Oregon, to Prof. H. J. Barss, boton
1st at the O. A. C. experiment sta
tlon. Mr. Burge Is a reporter of the
Oregon crop disease survey and Infor
mation service, and says that while
the greater number of farmers fight
the thistle all the time It Is a great
nuisance.
The Canada thistle Is distinguish
ed from bull thistle and others prin
cipal! byy Its clusters of small flow
ers and more crinkled leaves, which
and more crinkled leaves, which are
covered with many short spines.
Being a perennial, it progagates
itself by its underground parts
well as by seed. The root, which
varies in size from a small rootlet
up to a quarter of an Inch or more,
spreads in all directions, at a depth
of a few Inches to a few feet below
the surface, depending on the kind
of soil.
From any point In the root buds
may form and seed up new shoots
that form new plants. Shoots in all
stages of development can be found
during the growing season.
The Canada thistle is generally in
troduced by seeds, which are carried
by wind, water and birds, and in
grass, clover and small seeds, espe
cially oats.
Methods of eratdicatlon must be
suited to the conditions on the farm.
Being in touch with many growers
who have been successful the col
lege Is in a posltlon'to give any farm
er Information that will enable him
to eliminate this weed in the shortest
time and at least expense.
The experiment station will glad
ly identify specimens of plants sent
In and assist in weed eradication.

WHY IT SUCCEEDS.
Ashland People Appreciate This,
Because It's For One Tiling Only, and
Nothing can be good for every
thing.
Doing one thing well brings sue
cess.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for one
thing only.
For weak or disordered kidneys,
Here is Ashland evidence to prove
their worth:
Mrs. J. Galbralth. 136 Sherman
street, says: "Five years ago my kid
neys were In a bad way. My back
felt weak and lame and I was tired
and languid all the time. Finally
began taking Doan's Kidney Pills and
they helped me wonderfully. They
regulated my kidneys and since then
I have always used them when I have
felt my kidneys needed attention
Doan's have always done me good."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Dont
simply ask for a kidney remedy get
Doan's Kidney Pills the same that
Mrs. Galbralth had. Foster-Milburn

Cl&aimcey Florey
I am a candidate for County Clerk. The duties of County Clerk are
numerous and complicated. Business discretion as well as clerical abil
ity Is necessary. The County Clerk Is exofficio member of the equaliza
tion board. He is clerk of the probate and county courts. He is clerk of
the circuit court and recorder of deeds for the county. He handles also
all the business connected with elections and road districts.
I feel that my years of experience about the court house work, In the
different departments, especially qualifies me for the duties of County
Clerk.
In relation to my work as County Recorder, the last public accountant
had this to say: "It Is the best conducted office of its kind In the state."
If nominated and elected I hope to have as good report of my service
as County Clerk. i

Frank C. Barmwell, chairman of
the third Liberty loan drive In Jose
phine county, stated Saturday even
ing that while he could not give the
exact amount subscribed to date ow
ing to the fact that not all the sales
had been reported up to the closing

the total would be around $132,000.
The quota for this county was put at
5106.000, which leave a surplus sub
