Ilnskihs for, health. ti HIS PICTURE rllE nil-Important tmltoiinl issue to ho settled in tho coming pruning election is tho nomination oC a, congressman i'or this district who will represent the people iVuly, honestly and with ability. When you reflect thnt congress, with its power of taxation, can control Vour very life and living, fix the cost of tho necessities yon eat and wear and tho roof that shelters you; that by the contemptuous Pnyno-Aldrich tariff bill you are daily being mulcted on every necessity of life for tho benefit of tho trusts, tho gravo importance attaching to tho selection of a. hired sonant to represent you and nil of us intelligently, fearlessly and honestly in theso great public functions cannot bo exaggerated. It is not tho purpose of this paper to usurp tho porogntivos of impotent, still-born or diseased party organs, but rather to urge on tho dominant party tho responsibility that it cannot shirk in this campaign. There has been an awnkoning of tho publio conscience all over tho land. An aroused constituency is demanding an accounting at tho hands of its servants, and tho party, however strongly entrenched, that offers as a caudidato a dis ciple of tho "pork barrel," a henchman of Caunouism and u server of special privilege must go down to certain dofent. Tho roll-call in tho Congressional Record tells tho story of Mr. Jlnw loy's stewardship. It has been published in theso columns before; it is a record thnt every intelligent republican in tho district should familtnruo himself with boforo goiug to tho polls. The last issue of La Follotto's mngarine gives it in its shameless entirety. It is a record of betrayals of tho people, a reflection of Cnnnonism, a parroting of the master privilege; tho record of a political cunich. Even Mr. Uawley is ashamed of it ho daro not defend it, ho dnro not meet his opponent on tho stump. Ho is mnking a campaign of pictures in store fronts and vaudeville theaters, a life-sized, complacent, dignified, self-satisfied servant of tho people but in tho fnco of La Follotto's awful impeachment of his record, in tho face of the overwhelming defeat that has engulfed his co-eunichs in tho house, even tho pictures should blush, Oregon stands to tho forefront of states that have inaucurnted a "ou- ular" against a "delegated" government, therefore its shame is tho greater to nave been represented by this levy upon tho people a tnbuto as infamous as the blood and land tributes of feudalism. Let tho next roll-call of the national legislature find Oregon represented by a champion in the bnttlefront of tho people's causo and not by a political ounich of tho "me-too" type, whoso priucipal platform is his photograph. A BLOW TO DURING tho years tho direct primary law has been in force in Oregon thopeople have como out from tho black night of "party regulnr ., . i.ty'" eT0 tuo merit oC n measure was of less consideration than its ongin. Whether it is republican or democratic doctrine is secondary now to whether it is honest, just and insures a square deal to tho plain people. The vital issue today is between partisans of government for and by big business as against those who believe in government for human welfare. Does a tariff bill that puts the raw product on tho free list, thus admit ting the supply from foreign countries at a prico below actual cost to ths American producer, and then taxes the finished product, increasing its on",! to the people, serve any interests except those of tho trust! Oregon siookraisers are receiving two and one-half cents less for raw bids today than thoy were receiving two yonrs ago, and at the samo time the price of shoes is steadily going np. This is but one instance of the workings of the Pnyno-Aldrich tariff revision upward, supported so loyally in all its details by Congressman Hawley. It forcibly illustrates tho method by which big business contrive-, to slice from both ends of tho loaw. v Congressman Hawley, in voting to put hides on tho free list, dealt n blow to the Oregon farmer: In voting to put a higher duty upon finished leather goods, he dealt a blow at the pocketbooks of every consumer. The "interests" alono profited by Congressman Hawley's tariff votes, but as La Follette says, Hawley has always been a subservient tool of tho interests in congress. FOR ATTORNEY-GENERAL rwy HERE aro two candidates for I general, A. L Crawford, the incumbent, and J. N. Hart of Baker City. , Mr. Crawford has held tho office for some years through lack of com petition. Nobody wanted it badly enough to live in Salem. Mr. Crawford is very accommodating. His opinions are apt to suit the desires of the inquirer. He is an adept at carrying water on both shoulders, and it is hard to pin him down. Before the Crater Lake highway bill was introduced it was submitted to Attorney-General Crawford, who made some alterations and pronounced it legal. When the injunction proceedings had reached tho supremo court, Mr. Crawford fonnd it illegal, and aided the obstructors, although supposed to represent the state. 3Er. Hart is an ambitious young attorney who stands high in his pro fession. As a member of the state rennte he developed qualities of leader ship. He advocated the Crater lake bill and other measures affecting South ern Oregon. Mr? Crawford has proven an enemy to this section. Mr. Hart has proven a friend. Mr. Crawford cannot expect any support here, Mr. Hart should have generous support. AN ENEMY TO THE bill approved by tho master ish warden for shortening tho fishing season on Rogue river, designed to prevent extermination of fish by commercial fish-hogs, was defeated in the senate at the last session of the legislature by one vote. It had already passed tho house, and would have settled tho fishing question on tho Rogue by giving the fish nine months' closed season instead of tho longest open season of any stream on the coast. The one vote which defeated tho bill was cast by Senator Albert Abra ham, now a candidate for governor. When the bill was called up in the senate, Mr. Abraham, holding in his hand a telegram from the Roguo River Fish Protective association, asking his support, made a maudlin plea for "the poor widow" who now owns tho fishing monopoly at tho mouth of the Rogue, and n savage nttuck upon the association for trying to limit her vested rights. Tho "poor widow" lives in luxury in another state and is worth several millions, all taken from tho Rogue. As a direct result of Candidate Abraham's efforts, tho fish-hogs still unrestrictedly continue their work of extermination in tho Rogue, to end which an initiative bill is presented the people of Oregon to bo voted upon in November. ALL-SEASON BALL FOR PORTLAND PORTLAND, Or., Sept. 21 That Portland will bavo continuous base ball next season was strongly Intimat ed by Representative McCroalo. who has Just returned from San Francis co, whore ho attended tho directors' meetluB of tho Paclflo Coast league.

MUCH BUSINESS IS TRANSACTED Last night's meeting of the city dads was a tamo affair, there being a dearth of accusations and eloquent appeals.
