diiw tlic cinclidiicy of W. II. Cniioii of .Nrodfonl for
tho office of National Committeeman, to be filled at'
the primary election next Friday.
.J ndtfe Canon has been active in party councils for
many yearn, having effectively nerved an County
Chairman and State committeeman for lackHon
county for the pant nix yearn.
Air. Canon in aecimcd of being a reactionary. Thin
accusation coining from bin opponent, who in an
avowed nonpartisan, needs no further explanation.
If long service in the Democratic ranks in nnp
port of the candidacies of Itryan and of Wilson brand
a Democrat an reactionary, then we submit that we
need more nuch reactionaries and less non-partisans
directing the policies of a purely party organization.
The attack on Mr. Canon's Democracy is unfair,
and the Democrats of Oregon will resent this effort
to gain control of the party for purely selfish pur
poses. We are for Canon because of his honesty, his
ability and his known fealty to party organization,
and his lovaltv to the Wilson administration.

Iiik lo somn nf the readers ot )our
paper to know more about tho method
of rurrylnit on thin work and Just
why certain materials are being used
In this ronrrcto road and why cer
tain precautions arc a nrccsslty In
tho combining of theto materials, so
that wo may be positive of securing
a good and permanent road.
U Kclnnllfie Problem
In the first place, the making of
tho concrete which Is to bo used for
a pavement Is not tho easy and sim
ple matter which many people ttilnl
It Is. It Is only within tho last four
or flo ears thft any real study
and careful attention has been ghen
to concreto when used as a paving
material. During thai Hnio thvro
has been much valuablo data col
lected which has proven to bo of the
utmost practical value to tho people
who aro building concrete roads
Much of this work has already bocome
standardized In Its application to such
an extent that to neglect Its rulings
would bo but to Jeopardize the qua!
Ity ot tho concreto one run tho
chances of securing a poor pi ceo of
work.
Tho engineer who specializes In
concreto paements, knows as surely
as tho sun rises and sets that to In
sure n good job, the following con
ditions must ba fulfilled:
First ("Ins MatrrlaN
Tho materials for construction,
cement, sand, gravel or crushed rock,
must bo first class In every particular
All of tbc.o materials must be in
spected. These materials must be so
put together as to uccuro a douse
concreto, for density as a general
rule means Impermeability and uni
formity, ami uniformity gives ns per
meauaucn nml ubsenco of cracking
outside of the regular standardized
contraction Joint placed In tho pave
ment. Tho depositing and flnoj
treatment of the concreto so mado,
as It goes Into tho work, U ulso ot
tho greatest Importance, and tho
carelessness and neglect In this fea
turo of tho work has caused many
Jobs to go wrong. Careful nml In
telligent Inspection In combining tho
cement and aggregate and water as
well as tho proper length or tlmo re
quired to mix tho same, cannot be
Insisted upon too strongly. Tho
final protection ot tho concrete sur-
faco and tho curing or tno sumo uy
covering with sand and keeping It
wet for at least one. weok, will do
more towards tanking a. good hard
surface than ono can realtzo. Con

To the IMIter:
Why should ono support C. J. Smith for governor? riecauso ho Is a progressive, but not nn ex

broadmiago, but not Indifferent; of strlctost Integrity and a tlrolens ynrUar,
Having known him Intimately for many yearn and having been associated with him on tho Stnto
Hoard of Health for tho past 'l2earH, can say that ho Is n student of affalra In overy sonso of tho
word; nn Investigator of questions of slate, rendering his decisions, after maturo deliberation In tho
Interests of the public without hesitancy. Ho Is a man who stands well In his profession, having been
honored, though living In .i small community, with Its greatest gift, tho presidency of tho stnto nsxocla
Hon. He In most popular In his home community having served aa mayor and been twice elected as
stale senntor from his district, overwhelmingly opposed to him politically at a time when politics
counted. Ills words wero listened to and received due consideration from tho opposition as mature
Judgment and common sense permeated every sentence.
A man of affairs and from every stnndpolnt a man of business, capable without display; withal
every Inch a man! If elected governor ho will be a friend to all paarta of the stato.

WASHINGTON, 3Iny 14. Dclails
of finnncial methods of the New Hn
ven railroad in the acquisition of
subsidiaries, particularly the New
York, West Chester & itoston, were
dselcd.o the interstate commerce
commission today by Charles S. Mel-
Icn, former president of the New Ha
ven. Mr. Mellon, with npparent frank
ness, told of his negotiation with
former Police Inspector Thomas F.
Ilymes of New York- for .the ex
change of 8000 New Haven shares
for 24,000 idiares of West Chester
stock, because he thought that Hyrnes
had influence with enple "whom it
wns neces-ary to rench." Mr. Mul
len bluntly said he would have been
willing to ileal with the "devil or
nnyhody else'' in Hie transaction.
"I entered into negotiations with
Mr. Morgan conceniinir the New Ma
xell presidency," sniil Mr. Mclleu.
"Mr. Morgan simply told me he wns
going to mnke me president. I
thought it was n reward for good ser
vice." .
"What was -our snlnryf"
"It was $.')0,000 a year for n time
nnd afterwurd 00,000"
Mr. Me! leu's examination todav

documont In evidence., "and when we
got beyond tho stono quarry I hit
hor with a monkey-wrench. Then I
stabbed her with a knife and dragged

The heavy artillery of the primary
campaign wi moved down to th
Nash Hotel this morn;ng. by Oen
crals J. M. (Doc) Kcene, Jessi
Houck, Ed Pottcngcr. R. E. White
head, and other leaders of tho K. If.
Madden forces, and all day tho air
was full of political arguments, the
most exciting being the verbal en
gagment between R. W. Ruhl, edi
tor or .the Morning Sun and Ben C.
Sheldon, the well known booster.
Joe Smith Is picked as an easy win
ner and counted upon to carry by a
large vote, the nortti end of the
county, including Central Point.
Smith has the advantage la. tkbi
city, or being well known nnd well
liked by all classes. Ills following
assert ho will carry Medford by over
from 200 to 300 votes.
Close Contest lmlictel
For sheriff on the republican side.
Walker Is given n shade over Slngler
with Earhart a closo third. The
vote, owing to a three-cornered race
Is split and uncertain. Chief ot Po
llco IHttson and John Summervllle
each pick themselves as winners on
tho democratic side. Several small
bets, however, that Summervllle
would win wero mado this morning.
Tho bitterest fight In the republi
can ranks lies In tho raco for county
treasurer, a strong feeling being
manifested among friends ot both
Colvlg and Cronemlller, brought
about by tho charge that Colvlg was
Induced to make the raco upon the
pledge ot Cronemlller that he would
not run, afterwards filing his nomi
nation. Colvlg'a friends assert that
with an even break In Ashland, he
will win. Opposition to Cronemll
ler, on account of running for a fifth
term, Is shown In the country dis
tricts, a change being figured bene
ficial. Light Vote Is Kxncctcd
Doth Ussher and Kellogg claim the
republican nomination for coroner,
and a close, hard fig tit te assured
with chances favoring Ussher. Two
years ago tho same candidate ran
a nli and tuck race. The Ashland
railroad voto Is conceded to Usaher.
Alt tho candidate were out all day,
making tho final plea for votes,
whllo his Highness. The Voter,
smiled, and waited for the proverbial
11 o'clock canard ot tho defeated.
Not over 4500 or GO00 votes are
expected to bo polled out ot a near

crat, for governor, will carry the
