REGISTERED VOTES
OF
POLK COUNTY
NUMBER7386
Dallas, Or., Oct. 21. County
Clerk Floyd D. Moore has been
preparing the election material
the past week and now ha the
official November ballots In . the
hands ot the printer and they will
,hortly be ready for distribution.
On the ballots there are almost as
many measures to vote on as there
are offices to fill. Six stat meas
ures, two submitted by the county
tour't, and Dallas voters have four
charter amendments to consider.
In the course of preparing. the
hallots it was incumbent upon the
county cleric to count the regis
trant!, which show a totafof 7386
in the county and which are affil
iated as follows: Republicans
4675, democrats 2297, prohibi
tionists 105, socialists 90 and mis
cellaneous 219. ;
The city ticket calls for seven
officials, but all spaces are blank
except that of city auditor, which
13 being sought for by the in
cumbent, J. T. Ford, The other
offices including mayor will have
to be filled by the voters writing
in the name of their choice as can
didate, and no doubt the election
boards will have many names to
record, but if the voters haven't
honestly decided upon a capaole
person for those places they
.should leave the spaces blank and
not worry the election boards with
the work of recording every Tom,
Dick and Harry's name.
As far as local politics are con
cerned it can be said that all Is
quiet and serene. " The councilmen
and mayor that are in want to get
out and seemingly no battle Is
made by those that are out trying
to get in. By repeated, requests of
a goodly number of voters in the
third war, C. J. Crook, a well
known business man, concluded to
lacrifice himself on the altar of
civic duty and has publicly an
nounced his candidacy. '
Dame rumor has it that Walter
Muir and Floyd D. Moore, will re
ceive many votes from their
friends for the postion of mayor,
jet neither of these two men cared
enough for the office to seek it.
Both have had experience as coun
cilmen and their business training
would fit them in every way for
successfully and satisfactorily
lilling the position; but it is a
question as to whether they would
accept the position If elected.

A Message Direct from Paris
When pearls became so valuable that only
the most affluent could enjoy their beauty,
man sought to create something that would
be as beautiful, yet within the reach of those
Seeking this most lovely setting for feminine

a man-made pearl could be produced. To a
Frenchman belongs the glory of giving the
world this wonderful gem that is so eagerly
sought by all lovers of the beautiful.
France gives the world La Tausca Pearls
pearls so perfect that they lose nothing
through comparison with Nature's most
priceless gem.
There are many kinds of La Tausca Pearls,
each with a charcter distinctly its own. Lack
of space prevents us from telling you all, so

ment there to see, to feel, to learn, to know
