ANDSTAR IS CAMPAIGN FOR $150,000 HOTEL MEDFORD TRIBUNE, MTOFORdI OT?FiOr. MONDAY, OOTOTOR 24'. 1021 Henry Enders, Jr., Subscribes $1,500 to Bonus for Outside Capital Sentiment Strong for Project Black Hand Plot Revealed. ASHLAND, Oct. 24. This burg may ,et realize a fond dream, and that is ! mirurd to Q. biir briuid now lint at agitation for which is now going for-n-oH esDecialiy through chamber nf commerce channelB. The sum of $150, 000 Is deemed a maximum cost for such a structure, which must he first class in every respect, responding to ail demands of the tourist public. Any remodeling of present hotol facilities I - "t to l,o tl.ni.Kht of, conseaucntly !"-'. '"I'al.iliiatioi, of the Hotel Ashland I , nowlst-' contemplated. The site I of that structure, a commandm-,- one 'iiisht answer, but the consensus of "Pinion is that it would require more than a renaissance upheaval as applv. ms to !ts composite order of architec ture incorporating Corinthian, Doric i-ind Ionic features-to place it in the ironl rank as a modem hostelrv l'ri nanly it is conceded that there are dilticiilties in the way of raisins I50, "0 locally for this . nroiect. quentiy the plan as outlined is to do i i..c next nest thing, and that is to raise a minimum bonus of ioO.uon ns an In. jcentive for outside capital to under take the job. Public expression is well nigh unanimous in this movement, al though rival tongs may differ widely on other subjects as applying the Tid ings, Sap-and-Snlt, and chamber of commerce controversies. Henry En ders, Sr., w ill subscribe $1500 towards the bonus on the basis that ilm hotol. sanitarium is to cost $150,000 or more, .inn lurtner stipulates that this offer is contingent upon some action being taken while he is yet alive and kick ing. In other words, he don't want to live to the age of Methuselah before witnessing something tangiblo accom plished. Bert Greer wants to irot in on the ground floor to the extent of at least $1000, and suggests $250,000 as the major cost of the hotel venture. John Fuller, chamher of commerce sec- P3TCIE ' THREE retary, follows suit in tho sum of $500. these being impromptu pledges, no activo canvass having been under taken as yet. This movement is the direct result of communications ia the public papers by M. C. Ueed, agitating the question, reinforced by Ilert Moses address on "Advertising Ashland." This matter will be considered at length sul a special chamber of com merce luncheon in the near future. It seems hard to believe that anyone in a community like Ashland, fully if5 per cent American, would resort to bold blackhand methods, hut circum stances seem to indicate otherwise, unless developments are misleading. Tin Swedenburg family, residing in the big white manor on the Boulevard, are being threatened wifti blackmail, the alternative being that if a thou sand dollars is not forthcoming, their home will be blown up. Dr. and Mrs. Swedenburg are touring the south and east, the children being at home with a caretaker, and under the circum stances the premises are lying guard ed as a further precaution. The Bon Ton is a tony designation for a Fourth street restaurant, but Joe Kistler, the proprietor, don't think it is "good style" to have an unknown man beat him all up, an occurrence which lately happened right in broad daylight dur ing the rush period of business hours. Joe runs a bakery also, and he's got tho dough to prosecute his assailant 'in a salt mid hatter case which may !yet be aired in-oyeii court. The pro prietor of the Eastslde Pharmacy re cently came near losing a second auto ! mobile, an initial one having been Irre ' trievably lost. Doth were cases of I theft. The first involved the loss of a I fine expensive car, practically new. They were stolen from in front of the i pharmacy under similar circuni I stances. The second one was a second jhand machine and was found ditched (near the vicinity of Hilt. These items do not constitute a chapter of acci j dents, but lead to the inference that even in our town there is an element that is criminally going some with determination. ' (f; y ' Hi A J v laid oases IT'S no' wonder a mechanic's overalls see the tub so seldom. When they finally become so greasy and grimy that their ' owner is literally forced to discard them for clean ones, the "lady of the house" naturally doesn't relish the job of wash ing them. For they are almost hopeless; that is, unless California Citrus Washing Powder is called on to help. But it's no trick at all for Citrus to make really clean any work clothes or play clothes that have had black grease and oil and dirt ground into them.

With Citrus in the house, bar soaps and chips, flakes, and other washing powders are not needed. Citrus takes their places efficiently and economically.

In these rest less days when even the government Itself is stressed to devise ways and means to rescue the transportation problem from strike complications, especially connected with the sanctity of the United States mails, it is a com fort to know that the postmasters of Ashland and Klamath Falls, in recent executivo session assembled in this city, arrived at conclusions whereby the auto stage line will handle all the postal business in the event that the Southern Pacific and its various branches ore hamstrung and hoglled. This fetish prevailing in reference to the sanctity of the mails is all bunk. etters and department store cata logues are not perishable matter, and even as far as newspapers are con cerned, one could dispense with the dally bulletin regarding the Brumfield and Arhuckle rottenness. To forego the chestnut football score and society columns would, however, work a hard ship, but this might be relayed by auto stage also. In an emergency we must have supplies. "Give us this day our daily bread" first, regardless of letters papers, and second-class postal junk. Ashland Is to be demoted, Nov. 1, to the status of a toll station in tho ranks of the Oregon vias & Electric Co. Already its local surplus equip ment is on its way to Medford by auto truck. The town Is in the hands of a receiver insofar as this hot air is concerned, that official residing at the county metropolis, from which center the management of the concern will hereafter radiate. In case blowouts and punctures, we will have to signal the central office, and also pay bills at those headquarters unless a collection agency is installed here. Cliff Jenkin, former manager at Medford, has been transferred to Roseburg, and George Jenkin, local manager, is on tho wait ing list.

There is a gro cery in town, however, also termed tne bqusre Deal, and care should be taken by the respective proprietors not to get their pungent paragraphs and goodeiies mixed. In the midst of blackmailing and boycott projects, auto thefts, knock down and dragouts, the circumstances attending the desperate Enders-Greer duel of a former period linger as but a memory by way of comparison. Among miscellaneous appointments, the W. C. T. U. will hold a regular meeting In the rest room of the public library, Tuesday afternoon, Oct. 25, at 2:30 o'clock. The Eastern Star Em broidery club meets on Tuesday after noon also, and will further plans in connection with its holiday bazaar to be held at Masonic, hall on Friday, Nov. 18.

One is a Hubaco reboring machine for straightening and reboring cylin ders that are scored and the other is a machine for burning in bearings and does the same work that tho factory machines do. These machines are the latest types in their line and the Valley Garage is now enabled to do any kind of motor repair work accurately by machinery. Dick Farmer says "Machinery don't make mistakes but men do." They are prepared to turn out all work quickly and guarantee the same. , 181 AT COST Cream Separators 450 Pd. Machines 350 Pd.
