This shret is the Portland Nrws. In thr issue of Thursday thrre is a Irttrr in which the candidate for gov- rnmr states that if he is elected governor he is willing to forget the single tax iv.iic and devote himself to the other frraks of lrgislation, such as nholishmrnt oi tlir srnate, $1500 exemption, and other experiments. He says that he icalirs that single tax is a drad ivsue in Oregon at the present time and says that although he still is firm in the belief it would be benefit to the state, he is also firm that fould be better to let the matter drop for a few years, People who profess to know U'Ren, claim that he is one of the best politicians in the state, and those who study the letter printed in the News re likely to arrive at that same conclusion. U'Ren attempted to bring in ltw votes from those who have always opposed him, but at the same time to .vwthe the feelings of the friends of the single tax. He says that he will nut approve any single tax measure nt the present time in order to become friendly with former opponents and that he still favors that plan of taxing in order to hold old friends. b Ken sustained his reputation as a clever politician when he made the statement that single tax is a dead issue a lost cause in this state. Kither in tlir legislature or at the polls such a measure would suffer disastrous and fomplrtc defeat, and so would any candidate who was tied to the cause. 0 i At -non MRM'OF EIGHTY ACRES, well tilled, is better than 320 acres half cropped."

Great na tions of the far east have gone down farther and farther in the standard of nations until they ceased to exist because ti.cir land failed to produce crops. If 1 VVWX-.Ti JPUfc""-. fllWI- .

Much ha hrrii done in the pat but it it only a beginning. The mprrimrnt ttation, the drniorntration train, agriculture at a ttudy n lhr public kIiooIi, rmphasii upon rrd trlection, and the wide circulation o high clasa farm puhlicationt, all wiint to a brttrr time to comr in the agri tultural life of the nation. How rvrr, the work it not ai fait at it tliould hr, l hr companion with any first claw European country will thow that the L'nitrd States, Iradrrt In many linet of national life, it near the bottom in agricultural production. Jim Hill takrt the tmallett country of prominence in Kiiroe to make thit companion, lie layt: "Denmark's area it about twice that of Mawachusetti. It it occupied by more than 2,500,000 people. Thit Peninsula of Jutland wat originally a and of inferior fertility. What ha been done with it? Denmark it now ailed the "model farm of Europe." It export of horrt, cattle, bacon and ard, butter and egg amounted in 1908 to nearly $89,000,000. The export utinrt alone amount to about $0 per acre of farm land, in addition to the ilomrstic consumption. How ha thit been accomplished ? "First, negatively, it hat not been done by any artificial meant or legis lative hocut pocu. No bounty and no tuhsidy hat any share in the national prosperity. 1 he rulrr oi the country it the tmall farmer. He cultivates hit acret a we cultivate a garden. He raise everything that belong to the land. le fertilir it by un'ng every ounce of material from hit livestock and by pur chasing more fertilizer! when needed. "In thit little country, with a population Irss than that of Massachusetts, there are forty-two high schools and twenty-nine agricultural college. What- rvrr else thry teach, agriculture it taugh first, last and all the time, to young and old alike. The Dane it a farmer and it oroud of it. Em-land and Ire- and and Germany today are ttudying hit methods. No people coudl imitate them with more profit than our own." o HE PRIMARIES IN MAY showed the true beauty of Mr. U'Ken't corrupt practice act and demonstrated that a candidate could with rase and safety pile up an excnscs account big enough to drive a wagon through. The law limit the amount of money the candidate can spend but My nothing about the amount hi friend can spend for him. Many f the candidates took advantage of this hole and we have such expense accounts as that one filed by a candidate for the Republican nomination for governor. This candidate spent within a few cents of the limit prescribed by aw and an avsociate and a certain Portland man spent enough to bring the total hundred of dollars above the prescribed limit. Hut the law it more than useiess. It promotes perjury. ,'The candidate is given his choice between violating the law and being punished and "fixing" his statement to as to be within the limit. There is no way to check up on the candidate so that it would be impossible to all practical purposes to catch a candidate if he did perjure himself. When confronted with such a choice under such circumstance, it is but human to pick the one which includes a touch of perjury but escapes the disgrace of a sentence. Such a law expresses the height of folly than can be reached in law mak ing and is characteristic of the fantastic mixtures which are thrown together by the local politician. o SaW IS ELECTED I T BV WIDE I-! 21 iiWiillli VOTE tTApoa tbO TO M IN f AVOH OF THE RETiniNO CHAIR MAN OF BOARD NUMBER OF VOTES SETS NEW RECORD Quiet Mtttlng of Taipyrt It Htld at 1 O'Clock Dlftrlctt Through out th County Elect Oirtctora TTSEVELOPMENTS UNDER THE DEMOCRATIC TARIFF II J) Prove ,',at ln'storv repeats itself.

Almost identi cal action in many cases has brought almost identical results. Business is bad, industrial conditions have slowed down and men are out of work: manu facturers, farmers and workingmen are compelled to compote with foreicn manufacturers, foreign farmers and cheap foreign labor. But we are waking up to the results of tariff reduction, snd history is going to repeat itself with the return of Republicans to power.' This icturn will undoubtedly come with the congressional elections this fall. Political straws show which way the wind is blowing. General indica tions point to sweeping Republican victories all over the country this fall. IJut the two specific instances where judgment has already been .iar,l nn thr Wilson policies are in the seventh district of New Tersev and twelfth ,?istn'rr of Massachusetts. In the former the president wrote a letter, asking the people to "pass judgment on the present administration." They took him at his word and elected a Republican to congress, the first time in fourteen years. In the Massachusetts district, the Democrats themselves elected a man positively opposed to the president on his toll repeals policy. o THE DISCUSSION OF THE LAND REFORMS in Mexico is taking a wide range. One suggestion is that when the land is divided h " wiiiv.il is me most popular, mere snouiu DC restrict ions placed upon the granting of the land. It is argued that the peons should be permitted to enjoy the use of the land hut it thev were allowed to deal with the land as they wished, the condition of the country would soon be worse than it was before the recent revolution. The argument is familiar ind has been used in this country in relation to the American Indians, but it is not a pronounced success. There are Indians who legally own large tracts of land" but yet who suffer for the actual necessities of life in the winter and every severe year reduces their number. The same case exists in Alaska, where the natives have the entire country almost to themselves but who are ying out. More sentiment has been brought to bear on the government Indian policy than on any other subject. Conferences are held in several parts of the country each year to discuss Indian affairs; churches devote much time and money to maintain Indian school and missions, but the condition of the In- ian docs not seem to improve but to grow worse with each year. In fact, ic only tribe of Indians which has improved during recent years is a ccr- ain group in California, which has been left alone by the government and missionary societies. Its members were turned out to make an honest living for themselves1, .and contrary to the prediction, they were able to improve icir financial and physical condition sq as to be equal to many of the white imilics of that part of the state from which they came. Whatever policy may be adopted toward the Mexican peons, it is to be mped that no step will be taken which would tend to make them dependant pun the government. To make them live by the sweat of their brow i-ould be the saving grace of the policy for the settlement of the question. Complicated and unnatural restrictions would be no more of a success in Mex ico than in this country when dealing with the Indians. Where capable and energetic people are placed along side of a backward race, steps must be taken to protect the weaker, but the first law of development must not be disre- graded. A sentimental policy toward the peon would be the worse possible step for his own welfare. Ily a vol of ISO to St O. I).

Word of tbe young man's death was received In a telegram from Supervisor Homer Ross, stationed at Prlnevllle. IS Break In the chicken market in all valley points is probably the worst for many years. Tbe offerings are so heavy at this time that even the sharp ly lower prices are insufficient to en able receivers to safely clean up. Sales of chickens were made in large lots in Portland Thursday afternoon down to 14 c a pound, and it is ex pected that even this price will be shaded later. Receipts of cblckenS are breaking all previous records. The offerings of very Bmall springs are especially ex traordinary and there Is little chance for receivers to clean up from day to day. On the other band the demand for large springs is very good; in fact this call is the best for many a day. EOF KEEPS IIP THE PRICE The shortage of new potatoes at this time is holding the local morket very firm and is keeping up a fair call in the home territory for old stock. While practically two carloads of new potatoes have been received from local and California points each day during tbe last week, the absence of big holdings of old Btock in the whole sale trade is keeping the demand at high tide in Portland. Much heavier stock of California new potatoes are promised the local trade during the week and this to gether with the natural increase in home growth is expected to more than fill Immediate requirements of buy ers. For that reason it is apparent even at this time that present values on new potatoes will be shaded gen erally during the coming week, al though no severe fluctuations in val ues are expected by the wholesale trade.
