    ILLINOIS VALLEY
Two In Rcce For Mayor
By FRANK STRICKLAND
Cave Junction The city of
Cave Junction will elect a
mayor at the polls Nov. 6. Pres
ent mayor, Elwood Hussey, has
filed for reelection. Mayor Hus
ey'i opponent will be garage
man Carrol Banks.
Banks was "drafted' last
Teek by a citizens i?roup corn
posed of James M. McDermott,
publisher of the Illinois Valley
News; Carl Hammer, owner of
Model Market; Kenneth Hamil
ton, Illinois Valley Hardware;
Larry Cushing. local attorney;
Marshal Borrows, insurance
man; Orville Merideth. serv
ice station operator; Lee Jacobs,
former manager Cave City Auto
Parts; George Simmonds. own
er. Valley Drug; Bill Howland,
Western Auto Supply and Jew
ell Bunch, operator of the local
ihoe shop.
Hussey, who established the
town as "Cave City" in 1926,
is one of the town's most en
thusiastic boosters and has serv
er three two-year tersm as its
mayor. Mr. Banks, drafted op
ponent for the non-paying of
fice, came to Cave Junction ap
proximately three years ago and
established the Banks Automo
tive Service. The mayoralty race
is developing into a hot issue
and it is said that three of the
original "drafting" committee
do not reside within the city
limits. The town, now officially
Cave Junction, was incorporated
eight years ago.
No rain of measurable quanti
ty has fallen on this valley since
last May yet the country is as
fresh and green as of normal
years. Despite the fact the water
table here has dropped several
feet below the average summer
level, domestic supply has not
been curtailed. While the
ground surface is dry as usual
during summer seasons, no ser
ious fires have been reoorted
from lookout stations in this vi
cinity. No prospects of an early
rain are in sight.
Monroe Sweetland, Demo
cratic candidate for secretary
of state, told a luncheon gather
ing at the Todelope Cafe last
week that the governor's race
in Oregon, this year, is as Im
portant as that of the office of
U. S. Senator. Sweetland said
the election of a democratic gov
ernor is necessary to make
Oregon a two-party state. The
candidate, who referred to him
aelf as a publisher, said the
office he seeks has been con
trolled by Republicans for 78
years. The speaker said Sen.
Wayne L. Morse will win and
that State Senator Robert
Holmes, the Democratic gubern
atorial candidate is "making
gains". He urged Illinois Valley
Democrats to make a special ef
fort In Holmes' behalf. . The
speaker failed to mention his
own candidacy as he dealt with
the subject of voter registration
in josepnine county. He ac
cused the county clerk of "chis
eling" when told the official
refused to give more than two
omple ballots to a represent
tive of the Democrat Central
committee. Sweetland said Re-
publcians were "devoting more
time and energy towards keep
ing potential Democrats from
registering than in promoting
their own candidates .
uibbon s auper Market, one
mile south of Cave Junction on
highway 199, has attached a
large painted bulletin to their
existing two-way neon sign. Ac
cording to the new sign the
market will be open between the
hours of 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.
According to reliable informa
tion released on this season's big
game hunting. 230,000 Oregon
deer hunters purchased S8.000
worth of liquor for the opening
day's hunt. Whiskey in Oregon
is sold only by the state and its
authorized agents who operate
under direct supervision of the
liquor Control commission
Stores in major cities are manned
by stale employees while small
er towns are served by agency
dealers.
According to information re
leased at a meeting of the Demo
cratic club of the Illinois Valley
Monday, U. S. Senator Richard
L. Neuberger and Mrs. Neu
berger will visit Cave Junction
Tuesday, Oct. 16. in the interest
of the candidacy of Wayne
Morse for reelection to the senate
and other candidates on the
Democrat ticket. Tentative plans
were made at the meeting to en
tertain the distinguished couple
at a luncheon rally at the Tode
lope Cafe in Cave Junction. It
was also announced at the meet
ing that a pie social would be
given by the club Sat. Oct., 13
starting at 8 p.m. at the Legion
Hall. The public is invited. Spe
cial representative, Harold H.
McKenzie. of the United Brother
hood Carpenters and Joiners of
America, was the principal
speaker at the club meeting. Mc
Kenzie. who maintains an office
at Grants Pass, talked at length
on the subject of voter registra
tion and accused the present
Josephine County clerk of trying
to block voting of the laboring
class by making it as difficult
as possible for them to register.
Harry G. Heathman of Cran
nel. Calif., asked for an appeal
last week following a court ci
tation for driving "40 miles an
hour through a 20-mile school
zone"' at Cave Junction. Heath
man was represented by Atty.
Wm. M. Sloan of Grants Pass.
The request for appeal to a hrii-
er court was heard by municipal
judge Paul Glines. Heathman,
who posted $25 bail for the al
leged traffic violation, claimed
it isn't possible for an officer
on the side lines to clock the
exact rate of speed of a motor
vehicle as it passes a fixed point.
The arresting officer claimed he
determined the speed of the
Heathman car while following it
to issue the citation. According
to Judge Glines if the defendant
wins his case in the county court
his (Heathman's) posted bail will
be refunded. Larry Cushing. City
Attorney, represented the town
in the appeal hearing.
