tfW. EIFERT ISSUES STATEMENT TO
VOTERS AS CANDIDATE FOR. MAYOR
To iry "Prionds, Noihhors nikl Follow Citizens:
1 am a candidate for the office ol' mayor of the city of
Mcdford and I think it is due you that I give public lit
tQi'iUicc to the grounds on which J ask your 'support. .(
own property and am in business in this city. All my
interests are here. .1. have been a member of the council
for the past three years and the knowledge and experience
J have gained while acting in that capacity will be ol val
ue to you in, transacting the business of the city if you
elect: me mayor.
. L havo every faith in tho future growth of Mcdford.
Today she is the greatest factor in the development of the
Rogue River valley and if her affairs are well, properly
aud progressively managed she will always be the great
dominant city of southern Oregon i
.if you elect me your mayor on the 10th of this month
Ipledge you that to the best of my ability-1 will give the
city afclean, progressive, business administration.
There js()uly one way to insure an able and successful
administration of a city's affairs and that is by placing an
able and competent man at the head of each department,
.!- . I 1 1 111 i
aim no man win ne named lor any position simply because
he is my friend, lie shall be more than that; ho shall also
bo capable and honest and if he does not make good he
shall step down and out.
On the question of the sale of liquor in our city there is
a wide divergence of opinion. Some believe in prohiibting
its sale entirely; others believe in its regulation by one
method or another, and on this question I can state my
position in language, if possible, that cannot be mistaken
or misunderstood.
1 firmly believe in the licensed saloon with properly
enforced reirulative laws as the best svstem vet devised
for the protection of our citizens against the intemperate
use and abuse of liquors, and if I am elected mayor 1 will
use all Urn, influence and power of piy offico to have meas
ures enacted that will rigidly regulate all places that are
not strictly law-abiding and "orderly. To this position no
exception can be taken by any saloonkeeper who expects
to conduct a decent and orderly business, and 1 do not ask
nor do I want the support pi this election of any liquor
dealer who does not have a disposition to conduct his busi
ness along tneso lines.
In my judgment no new saloons, to a greater number
than we now have, should be licensed to open in the city
of Mcdford, and if X am elected I. shall not favor during
niyterin of office the granting of now licenses, with this
exception, that in the event of the construction of one or
more first-class hotels, licenses shall bo granted them to
conduct a high-class hotel bar.
.In closing I wish to sav that 1' consider it a great honor,
to bo mayor of tho city of Mcdford, and if you elect me toi
that position 1 wish to assure you that .1 will not knowing
ly betray the trust and confidence you place in me.

THE
esss
1'lnables us to offeiMvhat we honestly' believe is the best
bargain in a producing orchard in the valley. There aro
'15 acres in the tract and it is only a mile from a shipping
station.
There are about 1 1 acres in apples, 13en Davis, Winesaps, .
Spilzenborgs, Newtowns. Trees are about 20 years old.
They are in good condition and produce heavily.
There are also about 12 acres in standard varieties of
peaches, in full bearing. About. 8000 crates of peaches
were shipped from this orchard last year.
There are also 8 acres planted to Newtown apples, which
.wej'o three vears old this winter.
, The balance
' The buildings consist of a house, barn and packing
house.
We think a reasonable estimate of the crop on this place
this coming year would be oOOO to 1000 boxes of apples and
(5000 to 8000 crates of peaches.
A team of horses aud a full equipment of machinerv goes,
wllli the place.
The price is $15,000, a trifle more than $100 an aero. Tho
terms asked are half cash, balance easy. If you cannot
meet these terms as to the cash requircd,'makc iis an offer.
