A mandamus suit was filed in the

following tlio next city election by
F. W. Clears, attorney for John Tyr
rell of this city. The court set Mon
day morning at 0 o'clock as the. time
for hearing tlio case.
The suit wns brought to scttlo the
question which has arisen regarding
tlio office of city recorder and coun
cilman in the second ward which is
held by W. X. Campbell. The two
officers were appointed and tlio ques
tion whether they could hold past a
general city election wns held.
Through want advertising that

bo quickly averted.
Many fanners arc not aware that
the government publishes several
valuable books for free 'distribution.
The books nre apportioned to sena
tors and congressmen from whom
they can obtain by merelv asking for
them. Among the most useful ofj
these books nre the agricultural yearf
books, that for 1911 being the latest
issued. The government nlo pub
lishes a very practical hook on ''Dis
eases of the Horse" nnd another on
"Diseases of Cattle," and a report of
the bureau of animal industry of
special value to stock raisers.
Asking for copies of these books
docs not place the citizen under any
obligations whatever to the senators
or congressmen, as the books nre
printed by the government and paid
for by the taxpayers. Many nn Ore
gon farmer has cured sick horses and
cattle by following the directions in
the government's doctor books If
you arc interested, sent your request
to eSnntor Joniithnii Itntime, Jr.,

The Southern Pacific, Santa IV
and Wetern Pacific railroad com
panies, with their eastern cornice -tions,
ut u meeting nf the tmnsoou
tineuttil passenger rate committee,
held in Chieano Inst week decided to
put into effect agHin next spring
colonist rates from eastern points to
all California common, or niaiii
Kiul.
Colonist fnrca were aulhorued for
spring, 1013, dates of said March
lf to April lo. Fates, Chicago to
California common points, $3S; Mis
souri rior, $30, same as fall, 1012.
Stoovcrs will be allowed, approxi
mately same as last year, except that
where five days' stoovor was al
lowrd in 101S, ten days will be al
lowed in 1013; but in no ense to ex
tend beyond thirty days from date of
sale.
According lo the California rail
road officials, during the mt ten
or twelve years 1,000,000 people
from the east have come to Califor
nia on these spring nnd fall cheap
colonists.' rates, of whom fully 1100,
000 have finally located in the slate
It is for this reason that Ihev think
a continuance of these cheap fares in I
1013, with the consent of their east I
em connections, a mutter of great
moment for the state.
