OREGON'S VOTE MAY DECIDE. How Now York World Biies up Chunces of Bryan and Taft. Portland Journal, Oct. 20: It is within the possibilities that Oregou's four electoral votes may decide the result of the national campaign. In; that event the voters of Oregon will determine by their votes whether Bryan or Taft Is to be the next presi dent of the United States. According to the forecast of the New York World, which on the whole is the fairest estimate of the situa tion that has been published, there are but six really doubtful states. New York," Indiana, Ohio, Maryland, Nebraska and West Virginia. The World considers that Taft Is sure of 205 electoral voteB, Bryan Is sure of 178, and these six doubtful states have 100. The successful candi date must have 242 votes. The six doubtful states are as fol lows: Indiana 15 Maryland 8 Nebraska 8 New York . . ... 39 Ohio 23 West Virginia 7 Present indications are that Bryan will carry both Nebraska and Indi ana. New York, which Is now the chief battleground, Is expected to go for Bryan. Adding the vote of these three states to that of the states which are considered safely for the Nebraskan, his total would then be 240, or two less than the required majority of the electoral college. If Oregou's four votes should be cast for Bryan he will be elected, even though Taft carry Maryland, Ohio and West Virginia. Oregon's vote would be equally decisive In case Bryan carries New York and Ohio, the other four doubt ful states going to Taft. Even without Now York Bryan will be elected provided he carries the other five states classed by the World as doubtful and receives in addition Oregon's four votes, o Patronize Review advertisers.

SINCE 1877 OF SOUTHERN OREGON W INDICTMENTS Two for Liquor Selling-One For Tobacco to Minor FOURTH HELD IN SECRECY Jones and Cameron, Indicted at Term Previous, Fail to Appear, and Forfeit $1,000 Pleading guilty tothe charge of selling tobacco to a minor, John W. Kruse, a storekeeper of Yoncalla, paid a fine of $20 lu the circuit court here this morning. Kruse was In dicted by the grand Jury Wednesday1 afternoon. At the same time the grand jury returned three other in dictments, two of them against Dr. M. J. Gray, of Elkton, charging him with selling Intoxicating" liquor. The fourth bill is sealed, and will be kept a secret until the Indictee Is arrest ed. The indictments against Dr. Gray will probably not be pressed, as a previous indictment against him was suspended pending his good be havior and after he had paid a fine of $250 on still another charge. i . The grand jury is still In session, but It is expected to complete Its work tomorrow. This morning the jury asked Judge Hamilton in effect if an evasion of the law was equiva lent to a violation of the law and in dictable. Judge Hamilton informed the jury that the question raised war for the jurors exclusively to decide Tho word "evasion" is believed to In dicate that the jury was investigating either "near-beer traffic ur indis criminate sale of liquor through phy sicians' prescriptions. That the for mer, at least, is probable is evidenc ed by the condition of the grnnd jury room, which, when, exposed to outside gnze for a brief moment, this afiei noon, revealed Innumerable bot tles of liquor under inspection. The Jury this morning returned not a true bill" In the case of Thos, Gallagher, a transient, charged with stealing a pair of trousers from the MeMullen home, in the Hamilton ad dltlon, several weeks ago. Whether the failure to Indict was due to lack of evidence or the fact that Gallagher has served considerable time in jail as sufficient punishment for the of fense If he committed it at all : -i not known. 1,0(1(1 I''(ii'fii(p(l.

PROMISES. Record of I,ast Congress and Record of Taft Convention. Promises are cheap, but records deadly. Three times within 25 years Mr. Taft's party has promised re vision of the tariff, and each revision. Instead of reducing, raised the tariff In 1884 it ruised the duties, in tin face of the fact that a high tariff commission had urged congross tc reduce all duties 20 per cent. Thai Is the record. The present Taft plat form promises revision, but doos not say whether up or down, and Mr. Taft says "Borne duties should be In creased." Which? Another record. The last congresB rejected all ap propriations for rivers and harbors, but voted hundreds of millions to In crease the army and navy. Why? It refused to pay expenses for thejtf commission on conservation of our J water powers, our forests, our coal lands and our natural resources, it it, rejected a campaign publicity bill rejected the Injunction bill, rejected a child-labor bill rejected every thing the people asked for. Aldrich and Cannon ruled supreme and spurn ed the people and the people's j w lanes, 'mat is anotner record, aim a deadly one. With such a record of bullying and blight, what Is the hope that another administration by the same regime wilt do better? Tho Tuft Convention. By a vote of 866 to 114, tho con vention that nominated Taft reject ed the La Follette platform plank foi election of senators by the direct vote of the people. Also, the same convention, by a vote of 917 to 63, rejected a plank for ascertaining the real value ol railroads as a basis for regulating rates. Was that not a good meas ure? La Follette was the father ol it and has put It Into effect in Wis consin. Why was it rejected? Again, the same convention, by b vote of 884 to 94, rejected a tmV for publicity of campaign funds Trust magnates dare not let It be known before election what they are contributing to Mr. Taft's campaign because thereby they would warn the public of their designs. When trust magnates contribute, they expect fa vors In return. It was for their sake that the publicity plank was rejected Once more, in a sieech In Okla homa, Mr. Taft opposed the Initiative and referendum. The constitutional ity of this law is now being tested It is now on Its way to the United States supreme court for final dec! slon. Four members of that court retire during the next administration If Mr. Taft Ib elected, will he not ap point men to that bench who are In sympathy with hlm in his opposi tion to the Initiative and refendum? Men, think before you vote! Sat urday'B Portland Journal. VRTK11ANH FA VOIt lilt VAN. Portland Journal: Members of the Grand Army of Portland do not seem to look with favor upon the candidacy of William H. Taft, ac cording to the Investigations of Al amson M. H lines of this city, himself a member of the Grand Army. Mr. Hlmes decided yesterday to take a sort of straw voto among the old soldiers and see how they were going to vote at the presidential elec tion. Accordingly he started among the veterans nnd the first men he met, all of them republicans signified their Intention of voting fo: Bryan. Mr. Hlnieg decided If that was the way the sentiment ran It would not be necessary for him to search fur- tner to find how the soldiers were Intending to cast their ballots. ANOTIIKIt IIKK'K HMH K.
