AREAS OF DANGER
-'WASHINGTON, Dec. U2. (Refcom,
mendationa x for earthquake study in
, Jjio United States as a whole similar
to the work being done in California,
yyere made today by E. Lester Jones,
:,dlroctor of the coast and geodetic
survey. In his annual report.
' 'Disturbances which In some cases
; cause more or less damago have oc
. ciirrod. Jn Jha last two ypars in Can
ada near Maine and New York, in 111
iriois, Kentucky, Indiana. Missouri,
Montana, Utah, Arizona, Washington,
,!CalIforiiji and. beneath th.e, sea off
Jbregon. If the ' scientific, lnvostfga
; tlon being mado for the preparation
.of an earthquake map of California
i; could be widened the information thus
gained could be of practical value to
; nrchttects and engineers. It would be
Jiosslble to indicate in this way, Di
rector Jones said, places where earth
quakes, might be expected and whore
"special precautions In order to avoid
the danger of catastrophe" wore nec
essary. Such knowledge, he added,
would be of particular value in deter
mining the sites tor groat Sams or oth
er reclamation projects.
Mr. Jones also reported that the
wire-drag survey of the inside steam
' ship routes of southeastern Alaska, bo
gun in 1914, would be completed next
summer. Deep water channels as far
,wSst as Cajie Spencer already have
.been dragged, marking the completion
of one of the most Important survey
ing projects of the country.
Practically all vessels bound to or
from Alaska pass through those
waters and many in the past have been
stranded. Now however, the report
stated, "It Is reasonably certain that
all pinnacle rocks along these routes
have been found and accurately locat
ed." ' i
TO AID FARMERS
IN CAlf BUYING
The board of directors of tho Cham
ber of Commerce met last night and
laid the foundation for an agricultural
program for Jackson county which the

by the public. ' '. i.
Harry Rosenburg, C. C. Cato, county
agent: Professor Rolmer, of the
Southern Oregon experiment station;
C. N. Culy of 'the Poultry Producers
association wore called into the con
ference in order that tho directors
might bo fully advised as to the va
rious agricultural activities.
, From now on the directors will ded
icate their efforts towards a solution
of the agricultural problems of tho
valley as they are oC the opinion that
agriculture Is a basic industry and
that the' prosperity of both farmers
and merchants is dependent for suc
cess on agriculture.
The Chamber of Commerce will tin
terwrite tha purchase of, 100 week old
calves from the Tillamook district at
an average cost of $16 apiece from the
stock of registered bulls. Tho calves
will be sold to farmers at actual cost.
To obtain a complete agricultural pro
gram, President Harder was author
ized to appoint a committee of fivo to
make the plans for an agricultural
program which the Chamber should
adopt. On condition that the city
permits the Chamber of Commerce to
sell 100 city lots on paved streets tho
chamber will put on a home building
campaign and C. E. Gates and W. H.
Crawford and T. W. Miles will direct
the campaign.

'' Announcement' !i
1 In -announcing my - candidacy tor
tho position of sheriff, subject to tho
Republican priniarios, 1 desire to
make certain plodROs to tho people of
Jackson county which in the event of
my 'election will bo faithfully '
deemed.- '' 1
The office of sheriff is tho legally
constituted tax coHbctlnB ! and ' inw;
enforcing body of the county govern
ments If elected sheriff I wlllYutth,v
tax collecting department 'on a Bound
economical and efficient 'basis and
law enforcement will' be conducted-in
such an active aggressive manner,
without fear or favor, that all law
violators will consider Jackson county
unhealthy and unsafe for any but the
decent and law abiding.
There should be no divided author
ity in tho -execution of tho duties of
sheriff. If elected I will perform tho
full duties! of the office, which will
automatically eliminate all special
police officers bf 'every 'kind now
drawing large monthly sums from tha;
treasury of this county. Having not'
long since served as deputy sheriff of
this county, I :know that 'the sheriff
and his regular deputies can, if they
have the disposition and ability, do all
of tho work now being done by spec
ials, and I pledge, that If elected, all,
such work shall be so'performed. 1 -
'This announcement -of m candi
dacy is made upon the demand of
numerous good citizens of this county,
who insist that it is my duty as a
member of this community, because
of my experience as a law-enforcing
official, to permit my name- to be
considered for this office. --.
Therefore it is with some hesitation
and a full appreciation that: I have a
family to support and a position that
requires- my constant attention-; each
of which rottsdns will prevent my
making1 an active personal campaign.
My candidacy Is now In the hsnds
of my frfcnds. If any concerted effort
j Is mnde they will have to make u,
' for I cannot afford, and cannot con
' sclenttonsly take the-time-from my
work for which I draw compensation.
' If elected. It will be solHy because
tho voters feel I anr qualified, ami I
, promise that I will give the people of
! Jackson 'county ' ftvery-. effort within
! the limit of my ability to the end that
i the sheriff's office of this county may.
