M. Lowe in Recall Contest Filed at Noon Today—156 Names on Document—Injunction Action Pending The petition nominating D. M. Lowe to make the race against Sheriff Charles E. Terrill, at the recall election to be held Saturday, July 29th, was filed with the county clerk at noon today. It will be accepted by that official. The petition, under the law requires 130 names, and 156 were on the petition. A majority were resident of Ashland, with representations from all other parts of the valley. The affidavit required under the law, relative to the genuineness of the signatures, and other legal details were sworn to by George Iverson, a carpenter, and William D. Huges, proprietor of a vulcanizing shop, both of this city. The injunction against the special election, to be filed by the Citizens’ League for Sheriff Terrill is still in course f construction, owing to the presentation of affidavits from scores of citizens, and other matters which must be legally correct as undoubtedly the application will be carried to the supreme court of the state for final adjudication. The injunction will probably be filed before the end of the week. Accompanying the nomination petitions is a formal statement by Mr. Lowe stating that he is a legal voter and resident of Jackson County, that he will make the race and qualify if elected. LOCAL AND PERSONAL The public market this morning was unusually good for a weekday market, although it was not as well stocked as last Saturday’s. Large quantities of excellent raspberries and loganberries were on sale, many of them having been brought from distances as great as twenty miles. Some were brought from the Applegate district and others from Ashland and Medford districts were on sale. Excellent large black cherries and apricots were also on sale. The market was practically stripped clean by 9 a.m. ----- If your clothes aren’t becoming to you, you had better be coming to us. The Pantorium Dye Works. — Alissa Corman; [email protected]
