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.

" '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.

-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. This should helo them
triad up at i'. .. lit unconsciously, without thinking about it.
