ROSEBURG, OREGON CAMPAIGNING FOR - It has been considered in former years as an import- ht principle in politics, that candidates for president and ice-president should come if possible from one of the big loubtful states. As most of the states were pretty sure for nany years '. oto the same way year after year, not many .f the state re then considered doubtful. It was regard d as a go' , i.tical card to play for these large states hose verdui was uncertain. As a result New York, Ohio, nd Indiana, which'were uncertain in their alignment, have ad more than their normal share of candidates. Today here is not the same dependability in politics, and the list )f doubtful states has become very extended. If a party ries to nppcal to just one or two states by picking presiden inl and vice-presidential candidates from those common rcalths, it may neglect large sections whose action is equal r uncertain. John W. Davis, named by the democrats for resident, might be considered ,e is connected with a New York law firm. Yet one thinks A him as a West Virginia man, the state where his home was up to the time he went into the public service. West Virginia has never been one of the big doubtful states for vhich the politicians played. -So Massachusetts is usually epublican, and that party dropped the tradition of nomina ng favorite sons of doubtful states when it named a Mass :liusctts man. Gen. Dawes, and Gov. Bryan come from ates usually republican, so again the custom is dropped. It well that the two parties are picking men on the idea it they will make a general appeal to the whole country, '.her than that they will be influential in swaying cer in big doubtful states where they live. New York, Ohio, nd Indiana may get fewer candidates, but their people and hose of Oregon want the ablest men elected regardless of here they live. o " 'enty years ago the American people spent a consid-' ortion of their time during the hot weather in sit . their porches. ' The women folks did a large part of mending and sewing there, as well as making it the ! center for calls and conversation. The men too, en 1 their evening hour in their piazza chair. The young pie gathered to sing, and much jolly life centered on the nit porch. Many people who used to be satisfied with the eed of a rocking chair, are not pleased now unless they e burning gasoline and eating up the miles at the rate of ) or more miles per hour. There are benefits in this stimu ,.ting motion. But the old time neighborhood gatherings n the front porch were refreshing after their simple way, .nd should not be wholly given up. The human body was rot built solely for motion. It also needs its periods of calm. o -It is easy for people to walk with an alert and springy l when the tang of winter is in the air, but not so nuu-h when the heats of summer come on. Many people who other seasons have a good erect carriage, will slump down ml bend over in summer, as the result of fatigue and weari less due to heat. - Physiologists will say that the results of . stooping posture are bad. Admonitions to jyeople to stand iji straight are needed, and yet exceedingly difficult to re nprr)ber constantly and obey. Probably more is accom plished when vople take for a fow minutes each day a well mtsitlt-red ' of exercise, by which the back is straight ned and t' belt's reinforced.

Some of the outstanding things men- tioui'd were the following. -"oieraieu yvuh uio ur-goii State Chamber of Commerce in finlhing the home products dinner to a large number of rail road and publicity men at the Ho tel l.a Salle, Chicago, on the even ing of March 12th, I'mpqua Val ley broccoli being furnished for the bill of fare.

There are many other smaller accomplishments that were han dled in the usual rotine way. and which do not seem of importance enough separately to mention, w hile In the aggregate they would make a fine showing.

The turbulent bard rock miners of Butte were stirred to pretty con stant activity from the time the kaiser tried out bis war machine. The soaring of copper was a temptation for agitation, and there waa constant clashing between em ployer and employe, and between j. W. W. and trades unionists. When the United States was drawn into the war the struggles grew more deadly, and Wheeler was accused by hia eneniiee of looking vith a too friendly and tol erant eye upon all the miner and their leaders. In 1818, President Wilson sealed the issue by refus ing to reappoint hi in as district attorney.
