YOUR OWN PRICE
Y ou had better call and make your
purchases before It is too late.
You will have the chance of vot­
i n g for something besides candi­
dates on Monday, June Gtb. Here
are your chances:
Vote ‘-yes” or “ no” for a local
option liquor law, which means that
license to sell intoxicating beverages
may he granted only by a majority
, vote of the incorporated town for
[ which a license is asked.
Vote “ yes” or “ no” on a direct
j primary nominating election law,
j which means that «very voter shall
1 have a chance to vote at regular
i polls as to who shall be nominated
by his party from governor down to
constable, the persons receiving the
higest vote to he the party candi­
date for the several offices.
If you waut to abolish the state
printer’ s office vote “ yes.” If not
vote “ no.” The farmer and the
rancher should look well to his in­
terests when be cast his vote on this
amendment.
If you want stock kept from run­
ning at large on unfenced and “ com-
mon" lauds vote “ yes.” If you
want no change, vote “ no.”
These explanations are not print­
ed on the official ballot. If vou are
interested in any or all the amend­
ments it would he a good idea to
clip this out for your vest pocket,
then you can correct yourself if
fiustrated when coming to vote
through having no time to think it
over, at least if you get your
thoughts together ae to the signifi­
cance of the questions proposed on
the official ballot.
If you fail to vote on the question
proposed? Well it amounts fo ex­
actly the same thing as a “no” vote,
for to carry the “ y es” vote must
receive a majority o f all the votes
cast at the election, without refer­
ence to the simple majority vote.
That is, though the question might
have a thousand votes over the
opposing vote in its favor, ond still
not have an actual majority of the
total number of votes cast, it would
be lost.
MEMORIAL DAY OBSERVED
A Grand Tribute to the Dead-Appropriate Exercises and
Decoration of Graves.
The observance ol Memoral day
in Cottage Grove w «' more general
this year than ever before. Busi
ness was pnu finally
suspended
during the day and the utt.udance
was unusually luege. The exercises
were under lb.' direction of Ord
Post G. A. R. the old soldiers being
assisted by the Womans Relief
Corps in carrying out the program.
The procession was formed at 10
o'clock a. in. ill front of the city
hall, the C. M. A. uniformed band
leading. Next came the battle and
time scarred veterans and the ladies
of tlie Relief Corps, a large company
of children bearing banners and
flags, representing the Loyal Temp­
erance Legion ; the members of the
Ladies’ of the Maccabees lodge, and
a large eompuuy of Odd Fellows
in regalia. Scores of citizens and
visitors foil iu the procession, mak­
ing the line of inarch to' the ceme­
tery nearly a mile in length. It
was estimated that fully
2000
people witnessed the impressive
ritualistic exercises conducted by
the G. A. R. and Relief Corps at
the cemetery, where special music
was rendered by a select choir. At
the conclusion of these exercises
every grave in the cemetery was
bedecked with flowers, beautiful
fioral offerings and tributes being
in evidence on every hand and it
was pleasing and commendable to
note that a great deal more cure is
being given to the cemetery this
season thau ever before, due to a
great exteut no doubt, to the fine
new five-foot sidewalk which was
constructed from this city to the
very gates of this siielv burying
ground last wiuter at an expense
of about $400. With the acquisi­
tion of a small brauch main from
the city water works system to sup­
ply wuter for irrigating the shrub­
bery aud flowers, there is no doubt
but what this cemetery would B o o n
he made one of the most beautiful
aud sitely burial spots iu the state.
At the conclusion of the exercises
at the cemetery, tue liue of march
was again formed and tlie crowd
returned to the city where iu the
afternoon the other exercises were
conducted in the M. E. church,
which was filled to overflowing.
Rev. A. J. Armstrong aud Frank
B. Phillips delivered the Memorial
addresses, both of which were ap­
propriate, able and interesting, a
splendid aud worthy tributn being
paid the living as well as the dead
soldiers. Special music was render­
ed and the occasion proved a most
interesting and impressire one.
Mem oral day is the most beauti­
ful, and should he the most sacred,
of all national holidays. It proves
to the living that even iu his last
sleep the ohscurist of the nation’ s
heroic defenders is not forgotten.
This holiday should uever grow
obsolete so long as the Americau
republic endures. It evidences sac­
red gratitude, and tends, to incul­
cate a spirit of patriotism essential­
ly American.
