tives had been trampled. "It's up to
the election board to get them Into
booth," declared the clerk.
Clerk Meyer urged extreme care, so
no flimsy technicality could be In
voked by a defeated candidate," for
that will cost somebody a lot of
money."
Instructions were' given on signing
the poll books. Issuance of ballots,
stringing of ballot number, and other
details.
Owing to the large registration, the
election boards were Instructed to see
that the polls were opened promptly

In the Ashland Boulevard, Eagle
Point and the following Medford pre
cincts: North Riverside, Newtown.
Northeast, Southeast, Southwest,
West and Northwest, the counting
board was ordered to report at ten
o'clock in the morning. In all other
precincts, the counting boards were
directed to report at one o'clock. Ttje
first boards will report for duty a
few minutes before the opening time
8 a. m.
The election officials were Instruct
ed In counting the written names.
The law provides. If a name is written
In, It be counted upon the ticket
upon which It Is written and not on
the ticket on which the candidate Is
running. - It does not count unless
an X Is marked in front of the name,
or the Intent of the voter clearly
shown.
When the polls are closed, all un
used ballots must be destroyed by
"burning or tearing in two." "Don't
give any to the neighbor's children
to play with." the clerk urged.
One lady present, caused laughter
by asking "How about lunch." A lady
from Ashland opined. "This Is a man's
question." Lunching was left up to
the boards, but they must not take
more than one hour, and be In poss
ession of the ballots and polls books
at all times.
FARMERS FIRE ON
IT
Reports were received by county
authorities today that Irate farmers
In several parts of the county had
opened fire the past week upon night
prowlers around their gasoline sup
plies without hitting the marauders.
One thief outran a police dog to the
barn door. The weapons for the
most part were loaded with rock salt.
The gasoline thefts are laid to car
owners with empty gas tanks and a
desire to go places, and no scruples
- about petty stealing. Oil and spare
tires are also Included in the loot.
Vhat makes the loser maddest Is
when the thief fills his own tank
and then leaves the pet-cock open,
causing the gasoline to run on the
ground and be wasted.

did It though, and I'm mighty proud

say that business conditions are very
good, but we are very optimistic

Two hundred bluejackets had hold
of the lines dropped from the Akron
and were swinging it Into position
when a current of air caused the
big ship to swing upward. Alt but
three of the sailors let go of the
ropes as they felt themselves leaving
the ground.
Men Fall to Death
The three men who clung to the
ropes had reached a dangerous
height before t.hey realized their pre
dicament. Higher and higher the
Akron swung. At a height of about
175 feet one -of the sailors tired, lost
his grip and fell to the earth. A few
feet farther up, another of the trio
gave out and fell to the ground.
Both were killed Instantly. They
were Robert H. Edsall of South Bend,
Ind., and Nigel Henton of Fresno.

The third sailor, O. M. Cowart,
climbed up the rope until he reached
a "toggle" a crossbar of wood splic
ed between the rope. For more than
two hours he dangled beneath the
dirigible as it maneuvered over the
field, the ship at times reaching a
height of 2509 feet. Cowart, calmly
sitting on the toggle, waited until
such time as members of the crew of
the Akron could be spared to pull
him through a hatch and Into the
