WAS IT LEGAL?
In certain circles the question
.... of the legality of the, last city
election has beer raised. ' It is
' well known that 'next 'year we
will, have the primary law repu
- lating the- elections of towns of
" 2,000 population and 'over, but
' the .question raised is in relation
to an act passed, in February,
1903.
" As tp whether" there " is any
thing in this matter or not re
mains for those well versed in
law to decide. Should the elec
tion prove illegal, what would re
sult? There is formed the opin-
, ion that the recently elected offi
cers would be sworn in by those
retiring and would serve as
", though everything had been
within the strict letter of the
law as defacto officials.
t Corvallis' population has pass
ed the 2,000 mark and Assessor
Davis filed certificates to this ef
fect with Clerk . Moses about the
11th of April. . What more is
necessary to place the city elec
' tioris under the Austrian ballot
law is where the doubt arises.
We reprint the following section:
"All the laws of the state reg
. ulating and governing general
elections and proceedings, and
. matters incidental thereto, shall
. apply to and govern elections in
all incorporated towns and . cities
"having a population of two thous
and : and upward. ... - All certifi--cates
of nomination of canSi-
dates for city officers to be filled
by the electors at an election in
-- any town or city having a - popu
lation of two thousand and up
" wards, and all acceptances and
" withdrawals shall be filed with
" the city recorder or clerk of such
"town or city; and he shall keep a
register of nominations for city
rofilcers in the manner, required
by the general laws of the State
of Oregon to be kept by the
county clerk; and in such towns
, or ci.ies holding their municipal
elections at the same time as any
general election, it shall be the
iuty of the city recorder or clerk,
ant less than fifteen days before
- the time of holding "such elec
tion, to prepare and certify and
aeliver to the county clerk of the
county in which such city or
town is situated, a list of nomin
atibns, acceptances, and with
i; drawals so filed with him; , where
; upon it shall be the duty of said
county ; clerk; to arrange, in the
manner provided by the general
' :" laws of 'the '.State of Oregon, for
rf:he, arrangement of such names
and ' information " concerning all
candidates for" such city offices
".'contained in the .certificates of
the city recorders and clerks; to
- certify and post the 'same; and
to cause the same to be printed
upon the colored or sample bal
, . lots, and upon the white ballots
to be used in the several poling
places within the limits of every
such city or town, together with
the names of the candidates for
state, county, and district offices,
as required by law, printed on
such ballots, the names of the
candidates for office in the par
ticular ward in which thie ballots
v are to be used, and conforming
to the general law of the State
of Oregon governing elections
and the manner of printing bal
lots as nearly as maybe; and
'in cities and towns containing a
, population of two thousand and
upwards, not holding their mu
nicipal elections at the same time
' . the general elections are held,
the duties imposed by ,the gener-
al election laws on the county
clerk are' hereby, as to all said
.last described towns and cities,
declared to be the duties of the
city recorder, or . clerk of said
towns and cities."

I consider Wine ef Cardui superior
to any doctor's medicine I ever used
and I know whereof I apeak. I suf
fered for nine months with suppressed
menstruation which completely pros
trated me. Pains would shoot through
my back and sides and X would have
blinding headaches. My limbs would
swell up and I would feel so weak I
could not stand np. I naturally felt
discouraged for I seemed to be beyond
the help of physicians, hut Wine of
Cardui came as a God-send to me. I
felt a change for the better within a
week. After nineteen days treatment
I menstruatsd without suffering the
agonies I usually did and soon became
regular and without pain. Wine of
Cardui is simply wonderful and I wish
that all suffering women knew of its
good qualities. -
' Treasurer, Portland Economic League
- Periodical headaches tell of fe
male weakness. Wine of Cardui
cures permanently nineteen out of
every, twenty cases of irregular
menses, bearing down pains or
any female weakness. If you are
'discouraged and doctors have
failed, that is the best reason in
the world you should try Wine of
Cardui now. Remember that
headaches mean female weakness.
Secure a $1.00 bottle of Wine of
Cardui today. ' .
