MLlElENTS
REPORT ANTIPATHY
TO RECALL MOVE
A number of rural residents In the
city Saturday reported & "decided
tvntl-recAll" sentiment prevailing tn
their sections, and general disapprov
al of the move as "a political revenge
plot or disgruntled litigants." In this
city, Ashland and Central Point, cir
culators oi the petitions were met
with refusals. Petitions left at su
burban and country servise stations
garnered lew names during the week.
The Rogue River, Foots Creek and
Wlmer districts were .reported the
chief centers of the recall agitation
with the feeling by no means unanl
mous. In the Wlmer district, opposi
tion to having the matter introduced
into the Grange developed, and be
came a, lively topic of argument, ft
was reported.
Saturday a report was received that
circulators were canvassing the lower
Appleeate country, in Jackson and
Josephine counties, and meeting with
meager success. The petitions, as yet
have not made their appearance In
Grants Pass. A "Rogue River farmer,'
and a "Mrs. Crowe" were named as
circulators of the petitions.
The real sponsors of the abortive
recall scheme are still in the dark. L.
A. Banks, edltor-orchardlst, and Sari
H. Pehl. the latter Republican nom
inee fx county Judge, In a five-cor
nered race, have both announced in
tention to sign the petitions, but
make no claims of fatherhood. The
name of a third party a resident of
this city was brought into the pic
ture the past .week. He is reported to
have boasted to acquaintances on the
street, that he was the instigator.
"Step right this wayl Lad-ees and

Extraordinary and peculiar pro
visions In wills are found, frequently
la the probate courts, but rarely is
there one so fin
ed with poten
tial dynamite as
that of Ambrose
Wears. It is his
final testament
that furnishes
the story for:
"Nothing V e n
tu?e," the Xinn
Tribune's new
serial by Patricia
Went worth.
Weare left his
entire fortune to
Jervla Weare. with only one condition
Jervls must be married within
three months and a cisy after the
old man's death.
The will also provided if Jervls
failed to marry within the stipu
lated period, the fortune would iro
to Rosamund Carew. Nothing so un
usual about that, perhaps except
Rosamund Carew, In addition to be
ing Jervls' cousin, is his fiancee. Thev
had been engaged for months prior
to the elder Weare'a death and con
tinued unmarried afterwards.
Rosamund wins either way; if she
marries Jerris, her husband i
wealthy; If Jervls fall to marry.
Rosamund gets the fortune herself.
The will does not bind Jervls to
marry Rosamund, but as the atory
opens, three days before his final
24 hours of grace, he still expects
her to become his bride. There
Isn't much time to find a substitute,
if it should be necessary.
Around this Ironic situation. Miss
Wentworth has written a powerful
story of romance and adventure, a
serial packed with action, excitement
and thrills. Watch for the first
