Examination of the corrupt practice ' ict In Its nearest application, shows the following provision In section 8516 of 1 Lord's Oregon. Law-. I "It Khnll bA unlawful for uv nerson to pay another for any loss or damage 4ue to attendance 'at the polls or In registering, or for the axpense of trans portation to or from the polls." 4 Lawyers disagree as to whether Flan ders committed an offense under this law. While the first part would seem to apply.' the' last clause, "or for the axpense -of transportation-to or from the polls," Is held by some to exclude tiio payment of expense of transports' tlon for the purpose of registering. It Is claimed under this construction that 1 the legislature had Intended to make It a orimo to pay the expense of another for transportation to the place of regis tration. It would have done so specifi cally, as It did In the case of voting. McCarthy Says Never Indicat ed Wish That Seymour Be Ousted; Police Department Head Still at Desk.

Strawberries at 4 a crate are being given away by the business men of Milton today, at the annual Strawberry day festival. When the time for the festival was determined upon, the coolf rainy weather of the past two or three weeks was not antici pated, and the berries did not ripen in iime for the occasion. Rather than postpone the event, the business men behind the celebration went ahead, and free berries were served to all, as cus tomary. Had the festival been a week or two later, the berry season would have been at Its height. Excursions were run to Milton today and the attendance Is close to 3000.

Land as fertile as any In the whole North west land that will grow unsurpassable fruits and vegetables; land beautifully set in a green crescent valley, lined by spark ling streams; handy to school, to church, to store, to town, and conveniences. Land in a district where railroad and river steamers compete for the hauling of your products to Portland at the smallest known rate. It is near Goble, on the Columbia river, an hour s run from Portland. Isn't that the sort of land you're looking for, Mr. Homeseeker? Isn't that the place for your home? No matter how limited your means, that sort of land is right now within your reach. We are introducing our matchless Beaver Homes. Orchard and Garden Tracts at Redland for as little as $25 an acre. Our highest present price on the choicest locations is only $80 per acre. And every acre, no matter what the price, is of the finest soil just such land as you can pay $300 or $600 or $1800 per acre for if you go into one of the old established districts. And please bear in mind that fhe established districts of today were the non-producing, cheap-land districts of yesterday, and that our district will quickly leap into place as one of the rich producing sections. Nearness to Portland, richness of toil; rare opportunities such as are attracting only the most desirable class of hustlers those " 1 1 things and others make our district one ot tne big comers. It may sound strange, but we will not sell out land to everyone. We dSn't care a snap whether a man's got a whole lot of money or none at alL But we do want to know that he's in earnest, that he is a worker and that he will make a desirable resident. You see, our future is to a large degree in the future of our holdings which de pends altogether on the producers that settle there. Every worker that settles here means something to us, as well as to everyone in the district. CHARPITTING, the new economy land-clearing system, is what makes it possible for you to get a home in this new district at such a small figure. Thanks to this method, there's no more donkey en gines and dynamiting needed for clearing the land. You do the. trick, with a box of matches and a mattock, and it's more like play than hard work. ' ' ' And thus you get virile, virgin land land that you can depend on. You're not taking any chances like you are sometimes when you buy cleared, producing land that may be about petered'out. j. Figures talk, too Take a bit of our land, say 10 acres, at $40 an .acre $400 for it all on small payments. That isn't a very heavy obli gation, is ltr especially wnen you can make these small payments monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or, annually.. On -the other hand, take the land in an old district at say $2000. That's quite an obliga tion for many people. . Now, the difference between $400 and $2000' is several times the cost of clearing prime,, raw land by the CHARPIT method.' And anyone, regardless of age or strength, can charpit successfully. Much successful charoittinarihas already been done in Washintrtnn hv smalt boys (see current issue 6f Technical World). ? . If you are in earnest about wanting a small farm that will make you and your family more than independent, if you are really looking for a good land proposition, then we want to get in touch with you. We can be of benefit to each other-. v i ... 1 COME IN TODAY AND ARRANGE TO SEE''' THIS LAND i F. B.HOLBROOK CO. 214 LUMBER EXCHANGE BLDG. 4 i 1. r
