Platform Annoum-ed.
In announcing his candidacy, Cap-
tHin Tooze makes the following state
ment of his position on important
nuestions of the day:
"I believe In the direct primary,
. 1 . . f u ,
a reasonable use out no buuw in
Tnitintivo nd Referendum. I believe
United States senators should be el
ected direct by the people, but fur
ther believe there should be National
Legislation to this effect. Am in favor
i....ii.,ti,.n tprwUnir to reduce the
taxes. Believe a law should be en
acted that will either abolish the tax
mnrivairpii or flse deduct the
amount of a mortgage from the r.
sessed value of the land upon which
tho mnrteaee is a lien, and then as
sess the tax upon the value of the
land less the amount of the mortgage
and assess the mortgage. In this way
the tax would be paid but once. The
wov t i now. the mortgagor pays
taxes UDon the full value of his land.
he Is also compelled to pay taxes upon
the mortgage, for the mortgagee n
fixinir the rate of interest upon the
loan sees to that. Many counties dis
regard the present law entirely; but I
iMpv In the enforcement of all laws
and officials of thi. county are to be
congratulated upon their observance
of the law. It Is for the Legislature
to relieve the people of the Injustice.

Diego,
This is the belief concerning electric advertising of Alfred
& Sons, Inc., proprietors of a large crockery store in San
California.
This progressive firm says, over Its signature:
"We are fully convinced that electric sign advertising is of
greater beneflt than most merchants appreciate,
"We consider this form of advertising the moBt economical
and positively feel that we get the most for our money."
The temporary removal of this firm's sign gave it an opportunity
for a comparison of values.
Do you know of our very liberal two-year-to-pay sign proposition?
A representative will call and explain at your request.
