THE FIELD SO FAR
Republican, Democratic nd
Socialist Have Their Nom
ine.llons Me.de.
To get the full returns of the prl
mary election from all the sountiei
has been a alow process and It was
not until the first of this week that
it was settled as to whom were the
republican state nominees. The
demorcati had but one candidate for
each of the positions on their ticket
eioept for a few places so there was
no uncertainty as to their nomina
tlons. The socialists and prohibi
tlonlHts, not having cant above 25 per
cent of the vote at the lust state elec
tion, had to make their nominations
by conventions or petition as thoy
preferred.

! DAVIDSON
Joe York has secured a contract to
enlarge a portion of the Cook & Rex
ford ditch and is preparing to push
work on same to completion.
An error crept into onr items when
we said Miss Lemon of Williams was
visiting Miss Pearl Davidson. . It was
Miss Blngaman of Williams.
J. R. Bailey.supt. of Mountain Lion
mine, has moved his family from Wil
liams, Ore., auJ have taken np resi
dence at the mine ; we are pleased to
weloome snob estimable people into
onr neighborhood.
J. M. Retallao was not able to at
tend his law suit in the Grants Pass
justice court brought by K. J. Kobli;
on account that he is still suffering
with lingering illness from which
his recovery 1b very doubtful.
A very seriou accident oooored a
little ways np the "valley froin here,
which resulted in killing a horse and
seriously Injuring Mrs. CM. Rexford,
together with smashing up the buggy.
Mrs. Rexford's little girl Flossie is at
ending the Missouri Flat school and
as she has to come quite a diBtace, her
mother usually briugs her down in the
morning with the hoise aud buggy;
the accident occurred on last Mou-
day morning when Mrs. Rexford was
returning home, aud wile driving over
the Single creek bridge the horse be
come frightened at a hole in the bridge
floor aud bucked the boggy otT before
the lady had time to escape, fulling to
the bed of the creek a distance of
about 20 feet, killing the horse in
stantly and severely injuring Mrs.
Rexford who lay in the water held
dowu by the broken bucgy, but by re
taining consciousness she niaunged to
keep her head out ot the water and
called for help. Mrs. Berry who lives
near to pluue of the accident heard her
cries aud with her hr.sband went to
the rescue, but had to sammou other
assistance before they could (let her
out aud carried to the house on a
wagou sheet. Dr. Lougtiridge was im
mediately sum! ,oued aud while he
thought no Ik 'lies were brokeu yet he
could not at that time determine the
extent of her internal injuries as she
was badly bruised by the fall. We
trust however that she will soon re
cover. This bridge hut) not beeu in
very good shape for some time and the
railing was so rotteti that it did not
afford any protection whatevi r in
keeping the buggy from going off.
Ignite a number of the citizens have
vijitcd the scene of accident and have
expressed the opinion tint damage will
bo required of .licksmi county by Mr.
i Rexford for his loss. The supervisor
I of the road district appears to have
j overlooked t he f let that his district
extends to the Josephine, comity lln,
and lias neglected to look after the
j bridges in this part of Ins district.

Alum baking powders are tinhe'althful. Do not use them foe
raising food under any circumstances. So detrimental are alum
baking powders considered, that in most foreign countries their
sale is prohibited. In many States in this country the law com
pels alum powders to be branded to show that they contain
this dangerous acid, while in the District of Columbia, Congress
has prohibited the sale of all food that contains alum.
Alum -baking powders are sold to consumers at from io
cents a pound to 25 ounces for 25 cents, or 25 cents a pound,
and when not branded may generally be distinguished by their
price.

If San Fraucisco is wiped out the
