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.

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.

There's Nothing Too Soiled for Citrus to

Yet the most delicate fabrics fine lingerie and laces,

With Citrus in the house, bar soaps and chips, flakes,
and other washing powders are not needed. Citrus
takes their places efficiently and economically. So
why not let it tyour all-purpose cleaner, beginning

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. '

In the midst of blackmailing and
boycott projects, auto thefts, knock

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

New Equipment
at -Valley Garage
The Valley Garage believes that the
best equipment is necessary to do
good work and have added two more
new machines to their up-to-date plant.
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.
