G. filler o Ashland was in Hertford Monday on business con nected with a broom factory which he and hia sons are operatim. Mr. Miller stated that b factory wnjs bnt a Mnttll concern as yet but with the new mnchinerj which he is at present putting- in he hoped to ho able to more than supply the demand of southern Oregon and northern California. He has maiutfa'ettired several hundred dozen brooms thi season and next year he expects to manufacture !lho product from at least 250 acres of ground, provided of 'course, he i& able to induce farm ers to plant that many acres to corn. It is n proven fact that this valley-is capable of producing nn excel lent quality of broom com. For a great number of years it was grown abundantly around Mcdford and a broom factory wfl"s kept in operation in this city but for some reason the factory quit business. Mr. Miller stated Monday that an average crop of broom com would bring to the fanner from "15 to $00 per acre, and that his factory would be prepared to use all the com planted up to 250 acres. Any land which will produce a fairly good crop of field com will do equally as well when planted to broom corn. Fanners who may want to add. the growing of broom cron to the other products of their fann should write Mr.' Miller nt Ashland nnd arrange for securing seed and get inMniu tions as to planting the peed nnd caring for the crop. WORKS FOR DIVISION OF CLACKAMAS COUNTY L. E. DeUlIs of Estacada, Clacka mas county, is In Mcdford in tho Interest of tho amendment to be voted upon at the November election calling for the division ot Clackamas county, with Estacada as the county. The residents of the eastern part of the county claim that as things are1 at present they are cut off from the western portion ot the county and havo to go .through Portland to reach their county seat; that the change will contrallze government a'nd glvo them a chance to spend their own 'taxoa and will aneau tho development ot tho country. Tho bill Is 318 on tho official ballot and the entire state will vote on the question. NOTICIS FOIt WATKIl MAIN' IHi)S.

Dated October' 29th, 1012. 192 10. T. FOSS, City Uecordor, A WbfcKEft SENATOR BOTJttNE lias done inoro U advertise tho Rogue river valley than any man ever in public life. Every year he has purchased V20 boxes ot Oonliee peal's and presented them to all members of the senate, the president, cabinet officers and department, heads. AVhen the prize winning ear of Rogue river Spitzen berg were sent, from Spokane to Washington for sale, the larger portion was purchased by Senator Bourne who pre sented them to members of the foreign diplomatic corps, as well as officials, together with copies of the Mcdford painphlet. J. E. AVutfc who has returned from Washington states that Senators Olapp, Gronna, Nelson and other personal friends of his were loud in praises of Bourne as the hardest worker in congress, the most efficient and capable public servant Oregon ever had and the one who has done most for the stato and most for progressive policies. "People in Oregon cannot realize what an asset they have in Senator Bourne" states Mr. Watt. "All unite in praising his work, though differing from him in politics. Everywhere I was asked 'What is the matter with the people of Oregon. Don't they know a good thing when they have it, don't they appreciate an efficient public ser vant I My eastern trip convinced me that there is one thing Oregon must do, and that is send Bonnie back to the senate." Senator Elihu Root, whom Bourne opposed on most political issues, yet who ranks as one of the leading states men of the country, differs from his small "stand-pat fol lowers in Oregon, being big enough to recognize merit when he sees it, as shown by the follewing: CLINTON, N. Y., Oct. ttt, 1912. lion. Jonathan Bourne, Jr., Portland, Oregon! Although our views differ widely on some public- ques tions, I value very highly the painstaking industry and constructive capacity which you have devoted to the work of your very important positions in the senate, and I am glad to learn that so many people in Oregon appreciate your service and Wish to keep you in the senate. If Oregon wishes to contribute her fair share to the government of the country, she can do it in that way. To run a big gov ernment properly, someone has got to do some hard and intelligent work. Half ot" the men who are sent, to Wash ington because they are 'popular at home, simply sit around and do nothings leaving the real work to be done by a few." You are one of the few. ELIHUROOT. FOR JOINT REPRESENTATIVE. THREE nominees are oh tfic ballot for joint represen tative from Jackson and Douglas counties. They are, O. Jj. Reames, democrat, C. E. Whisler, republican and A." W. Silsby, prohibition. The pailty labels that these men wear should not in fluence the voter. The legislature is not called upon to settle the tariff, the trusts or other national issues. Tile personality of the men. their individual beliefs, their reputations and their records, factor. Mr. Whisler is a professed is his proclaimed ideal or a statesman, lien Selling ot a senator. He is a stand-patter on the tariff, an active op ponent of woman's suffrage1, would emasculate the initia tive by the so-called majority rule bill and at heart opposed to popular government as distinguished from representa tive or delegated government. . Mr. Silsby is best known for having peddled wireless telegraph stock in companies whose promoters have since been sent to federal prison for swindling. No "reflection is intended against Mr. Silsby, who was probably himself deceived and an innocent agent, but he might be similarly imposed upon if in the legislature. His platform is a pro gressive one. Mr. Reahies is an able young lawyer, a good speaker and probably the best qualified of any of the candidates for legislative work. He is a progressive, a believer in the Oregon system and a pioneer advocate of equal suf- irage. .Mr. Reames should be elected. Fulton's Pblitical Record Worse Than Senator Bourne's To the Editer: That was a savage attack Fulton made upon Bourne Saturday. It will havo little weight with those who know Fulton and Oregon polit ical history, 'Now arrivals in the Rogue River valley may await an answer, Fulton and Dourno first came into prominence In 1894 wnen bound to gether by tho silver umbolical chord they becamo tho Siamese twins of tho freo silver propaganda. With this alliance they defeated Dolph in 1805, tho greatest senator Oregon had produced. Dolph was a sacri fice to tho silver cause that had been accelerated by Bourne's activity and Fulton's speeches and writings to tho end that, In the languugo ot their chief, Senator Mitchell, "the silver movement might become cy clonic." To carry out the program a Mitch ell legislatute must be elected In tho spring ot 18'OC. Ilourno was mado secretary of tho state central committee of the republican party, he having had u bargain with the leadorn that ho should bo mado speaker of the house of the coming session. I The Mitchell republican party was then born, Sol Hindi, Charley Ful ton, W, S. ' U'rem John O. Young ami Jonathan Ilourno assisted at tho dcllvory and fathered it. Tho country bus not elsewhere snDDFPiw; pOT.Tigwjys, fob bftfc&ON. should be the determining reactionary. President Tal't witnessed Buch a variety of breeds, brands and ear marks In a legisla ture as that which assembled at Sa lem, January, 1897. Counties had been Invaded and wherever possible men not outspokenly for Mitchell had been defeated. Tho motley bunch bore such names as "silver republicans," "Mitchell republicans," "populists," "domo-popo-sllver re publicans," "repubo-opo-sllver re publicans," "Repubo - popo - sliver democrats," "pcoplo'a" democrats, republicans. When tho legislature convened thither came also Charles W. Fulton and Jonathan Uourne In full charge of tho piebald array. Here Is where Jonathan and Char ley split. Jonathan domauded tho speakership. Mitchell and Charley refused It, Tho gold ropubllcanB now opposed Mitchell, for they mistrusted him. Tho silver advocates now opposed him, for ho had betrayed them. Then Ilourno demanded that Mitchell Htep asldo for some mnn with positive views and character. Mitchell de manded that Ilourno step aside for a candidate for speaker moro expe dient to tho hour. Tho leglslaturn could not organ ize, Ilourno demunded Mitchell's withdrawal. If Mitchell and Fultou had fulfilled their pledge Ilourno would have fulfilled his, Tho first breach of faith was not Doiirno'H, Doiirno'B fight was Indorsed by anFQEP, OREOON, TUESDAY, OCrOiTO 2M912, ho OViso,nlhn, which at tho elo&o of tho noBslon thnhkod Ilourno, U'ron, Simon and other for koUIiik rid ot frco silver domination In Or egon politic, and Mr. Fulton Is In thu habit of tnktiiK tho Oroitdnlnn lis nn orncle, During this lamented loRlMiUnro ttoitvno had hendipmrters In tho Eld rhino block, In Suloin. Mltcholl, with C, Fulton na itonorullnitlnui, presiding had the Wlllnmotto hotnl nn tho chief londoxvaus. Ilourno. gnvo clnhorato dinners nnd his one intea say his house was n hrothol, Mitchell had an nbumlaneo ot tine cigars, a draylond of Honors ot all sorts and qualities, with n spoelnl man for bartender. One IncldiMtt Is recalled whoro Mr. ot Crool. county wan to bo tnvulglod Into a room In tho Will nmottu nnd at tho proper tlnirt cor tain ot tho tiotuliiuiirtors' lloiitouauts wero to break Into tho room and, finding tho honorable member of tho house In a rompromlsliiK position, forco snob moiahur Into lino for Mitchell tho' next day. Tho whole schemo succeeded admirably, except that tho Keutlemnu having boon warned In some way, yn not In tho room when tho room was lirokou !iitiMceorclln to program. This oc curred within seventy-five feet of Fulton's headquarters, and whllo this does not accuse Charley or par ticipation In or knowledge of tho ovcut, I am suro Charley would grow very red and ury hoarse denounc ing Bourne if the scene wero shift ed to tho Kldrhlgo block. Charley says the blackest spot up on Oregon'H fair political history Is tho Kldrldgo block In Salem In KS57, .Vow, If that block was blacker than tho Willamette headquarters during tho samo day It Is beeaiiso Bourne had his alleged outfit of filth more compactly hunched thun the other. Hon. J. B. Hanultluo, a devout Presbyterian, went to tho statu sonv ato as a supporter of Mitchell and after learning tho character of the Wlllnmotto headquarters ho with drew his support on the ground that he could not continue to take sug gestions from this corrupt source, and went over to the Bourno-Scott-Slmon combination, llasultlno was occasionally at the Eldridgo block, but ho never again darkened the door ot tho opposing headquarters. It will bo remembered that Blsh Barclay of the Congregational church and David Craig of Mcl.oay wert both constant visitors at Bourne's headquarters, nnd they are Bourne's firm friends to this day. Now, In 19(j, a committee of em inent cltlzeai. invcstlgatvd tho charges against Bourne and tho Kid ridge block, and after a thorough Inquiry brought in the report that tho facts afforded no shadow ot foundation for tho charges made ngEinst Bourne and tho Kldrldgc. In 1903 Mr. Fulton was elected to tho UHlted States senate by the Southern Pacific nnd the Astoria & Columbia Itlrcr railways, and tho federal push. For six long years Fulton served his masters well. In 190S Charles came out again for sen ator and wax defeated at the prim aries by William M. Cake. In tho election that followed Chamberlain defeated the republican nominee, Cake, with the aid of Fulton and his friends. Chamberlain and tho Ful ton leaders had hcadquartors prnc tlcally together and co-operated to the last detail to defeat Cake. This accomplished, Fulton got Ormshy MrJIarg to conio to Oregon with his vest pocket full of federal patronage and with II. E. Williams, an ex-dom ocrat, ns republican committeeman, be opened up headquarters at Salem (whether in tho Kid rid go block I am not informed) and laid siege to the Intellects and consciences of the members of .he legislature to over throw the people's will. How he failed Is known to nil. It was thorn and then- that Charley should havo seen that railroads, appropriations and federal patronago havo gono out of the senator business In Oregon. It comes with poor grace for Charley to attack Bourne for opposing Bow erman, an aatminbly candidate when ho by turns fought Cake, his party's choice, and Chamberlain, tho pco pie's choice. In 1903 Bourne fought his Inst battle with the old weapons of cor runt warfare. Sluco that llmo ho lint) worked with and for the people. Ho has taken high ground and has maintained It so long mid stress and danger that ho will never rotrcat. His able sorvlcos demonstrate how very potent a mnn anay bo when ho throws hlmvclr bodily Into tho peo ple's work with tho people, tho only powor behind him,- Selling shown his unfitness when ho puts men like Fulton into tho flold.
