The addreBS of Attorney IJurke at
the armory lant night whs a splendid
appeal to the Intelligence and com
mon seilso of the voter on the liquor
question. There has honn mileFf said
by the wet Interests to the effect that
the argument against ho aaloon Is a
sentimental ono and not rounded on
good business. But when one Bifts
the argument aguinst the saloon Is a
reason the argument Is both logical
and conclusive from a business point
of view against the saloon.
His remarks were clear and to the
Jtolnt und brought round after round
or applause when he sunk a telling
point homo. It Is to ho regretted
that the entire populace or the city
could not have heard his speech.
Tho News1 endorses his remarks
and trustB that tho enthusiasm en
gendered will boar fruit on the fifth
day of November.
This paper stnnds ngiilnst the brow
ery Interests In this city and will, al
ways bo found on the slda of lnw on
rorcement and good government and
these things cannot be true with a
brewery controlled city and n brew
ery controlled county. Let us make
away wllh this leper within our
midst and by a tremendous vote cast
It forever without our city. By not
doing so we tnke a backward step
and faco again the unclean conditions
that once prevailed here.

BI5VKKLY, MasB., Oct. 21. Pres
ident 1 art s views or bow a presiden
tial campaign should be conducted
were given to the United Press to
day In an exclusive Interview. The
president's Idea or the proper way to
elect a chief executive follows
lly President Tuft.
(Copyrighted, 1912, by Tho United
Press.)
"Mr. President," asked the United
Press correspondent, "how do you
personally believe a presidential cam
paign should be conducted?"
Hero Tuft Answered:
"In such a way as to bring out as
many votes or the citizens as pos
sible. The great dangor to a repub
lican government, as I see It, Is the
lack or Interest In politics and fail
ure to oxerclse tho suffrage by a
lurgo number of citizens. I regret
to say I believe statistics show those
who neglect tills Important duty are
generally Intelligent and capablo or
exercising the discrimination In
volved that would work for the good
of the government. Kverythlng
thererore, should he done to bring
out this voto In' presidential cam
paigns.
The press, of course. Is the chief
instrument In keeping before the
public tho various Issues Involved. A
campaign conducted In 48 states
necessarily Involves the expenditure
of vast amounts. At times It seems
more or less easy to raise consider
able sums by popular subscriptions.
nut In the jinst there have been com
paratively tow persons who volun
tarily contribute their mite to such
campaigns."
What do you think," tho prcsl-
dL-nt was asked, "or the effect of per
sonalities In a political campaign?"
'resident Tnft answered:
I doubt whether personalities
have anything like tho effect which
theme who use them think tlley have
Some Minos there Is a real revela
tion of the character of a candidate
and so clearly proven to his detri
ment that ho suffers. Ordlnarllv.
lie use of epithets and personal nt-
ncks on candidates only anger their
friends and gratify IJie(r enemies,
but do not affect Indiffen ml. nnew
'heso attacks lower tho tone of dis
union and divert tho attention of
lie public from the real farts at is-
Biie. Fop that reason, the feu-..r
personalities Injected Into the cam
paign, the belter, as the public Is!
I hen mure likely to reach a sound1
and Just conclusion."
Asked If the people still expected
dignity In high oiilce. the president
said:
"Certainly. I am convinced ihal
the very humblest voter wishes his
favorites to conduct themselves wllh
dignity and refrain from descending
to personalities, which ordinarily we
would not mssoclale with men iln
prominent, conspicuous places."
Mrs. Dunlway Is 78 yearB old to
day. For many years she practical
ly stood alone In Oregon on the
question of equal suffrage. She has
lived to see defeat turned to victory,

Publicity .Manager G. P. Schlosscr
received word this morning from the
district offices of the Wells-
Kxpress Company to tho effect that
the company had decided to accede to
the wishes of the Commercial Club
and the citizens of Rosoburi.' and
build a modem express offlce nnd de
pot. The plans provide for a com
modious building erected from brick.
I he company advises Mr. Schlosser
that the S. P. Company has ordered
it to move from lis present quarters
nt once nnd requests the use or the
exhibit building till such time as the
new building Is completed. It is
probable the trustees will grant the
request of the express company lu
vlow of the fact that (he company
has agreed to put up a permanent
structure Instead of the wooden one
as at first Intended.

Having had many inquiries for Gas Stoves and Ranges, we have
finally accepted agency, for which we think is the best obtainable, in
the ACORN.
Gas is THE fuel for home use, and especially so in the kitchen.
With wood or coal, you require more room
With wood or coal, you must wait sometime before securing re
quisite heat.
With wood or coal, you loose time taken to keep stove supplied
with fuel.
With wood or coal, you have a constant variation of heat.
With wood or coal, you cannot be gone very long or fire is out.
With w )od or coal, it is dust and dirt and smoke from time fuel
is brought in until ashes are carried out.
Do any of those objections apply to gas?
And cheapness is in favor of gas, if properly used, for it can be
wasted as well as wood or coal. j
Come in and look over our "Special" series of gas ranges, and
you can be easily shown where economy lies. j
Look at cut in upper left hand corner, note that there is no stoop
ing or lifting while using ovens. Note how easily things can jbe
kept clean and neat aoout it, even to the floor.
