Notable Political Era Nearing End Hoover-Smith Battle for Presidency to Be Memorable for Measures Involved and for Obliteration of Party Lines in Many Localities Liquor and Religion Play Prominent Roles. Uy BY It ON PfZlCK f Associated Press Statf Writer) When the voters translate their decisions Into ballots at Tuesday's election they will be passing Judg ment on one of the really extraor dinary cnapiers oi American po litical history. Whether the verdict Is for Hoov er or for Smith, the year Vr& it, likely to be memorable for reas ons aside from the personalities of the candidates and the Issues for v.hfrh thry have stood. It ha seeu both of the major parties letting KO the traditions of geographical and Industrial sectionalism, and gropinK for a more secure nation al footing; third partyism reduced to Its lowest ebb in this political general ion, and many of the ordi nary customs of the year's abro gated altogether. Politics Revitalized It may be that the political stu dent of the future will call 1928 the year of the militant minorities. Everywhere over the country new life has been Imparted to mori bund state and local organizations which In past years have been overawed by the hostile majorities about them, and have given up the struggle before It began. This timo there has been organized democratic activity In nearly all of the heavily republican states, and an organized republican campaign In nearly every democratic strong hold Of course the party forecasters disagree as to the precise effect on the fhial outcome, although they concede gmetally that neither the normal r publican states nor the normal democratic states will re turn majorit'eo at all comparable t. those of pnet years. They fur ther agree that no matter who wins eac!i rarty will have left at i'.s disposal, for future use, a more truly national organization than cither has had for many years. Party Lines Disappear In respective efforts toward na-: tlMmliziitioji, the rival parties have gone outside the old established lines for rrcrults, and have held no grudges against erstwhile ene mies who have become suddenly friends. In the south, the republi cans have worked shoulder to shoulder with the "anti-Smith democrats" organized by Bishop Cannon and his colleagues. In re publican states like Pennsylvania and Minnesota the democrats have helped organize clubs whose only entrance requirement was a pledge to vote for Smith. The splltjlng of tickets has been encouraged to a degree never dreamt d of a few years ago. Liquor and Religion It would he difficult to sort out the Issues of the campaign and designate any one as paramount. (Jovernor Smith's celebrated tele gram to the Houston convention gave prohibition a prominence it never had before in ft presidential campaign. It is certain that to many voters the chief distinction between the parties In 1028 ha been that th nominee of one Is for modification of the Volstead act, and (he nominee of the other has dnrlared for the eighteenth amendment. This is a promise which many others have disputed, ; particularly 'some of Governor ! .Smith's own supporters in the j farm belt, where democrats and bolting republicans have waged a j war on the republican nominee on the basis of his record as food ad ministrator and his opposition to the McNary-Haugen bill. Slurs on Smith's Tammany connections and I Hoover s long remembered resi j deuce abroad have caused both ; sides to charge their opponents ' with "whispering." One. of the big enigmas is the re ligious Issue. (Jovernor Smith's membership In thi-'Catholic church has been discussed privately and publicly. The republican national organization and Mr. Hoover him self have expressed condemnation of such a campaign, hut other anlt Smith agencies iiave. distributed anti-Catholic literature far and wide. Opinions differ as to the per centage of votes thus influenced. Chief Battlegrounds The final week of the campaign finds an unusual number of states still claimed" by both sides and Btill rocked by the thunder of heavy political artillery. Those in which the battle now seems most terrific include: In the east: New York, New Jer sey, Massachusetts Rhode Island and Delaware. In the south: North Carolina, Florida, Alabama and Texas. On the border: Maryland, Kentucky, Tennessee. Missouri and Oklahoma. In the Farm Belt: Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Da kota and Nebraska. In the west: Montana, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico and Arizona. These are the states In which political analysts are likely to be most inlerested when the first re turns trickle In next Tuesday night. STATEMENT OF PERCY A.

YES EXPERT LAUNDRY And rt HfcNJi LEARNED Our practical knowledge of the laundry business enables us to turn out work of surprising excellence. Whenever you se a well launder ed, rteltrate shirtwaist and frsh, at tractive table napery you should think of this laundry. Roseburg Steam Laundry Phont 7 Roaaburg TO THE VOTERS OF DOUG LAS COUNTY: During this fall there has been a number of cases of stealing of domestic livestock, particularly sheep and turkeys, In the coumy. I)ih to the use of automob'lca by ; the criminals, no time can Ha lost In Investigating these cases and running down the thieei. For that reason I have been unable to gke much time to my candidacy for election as sheriff. I have, felt that the duties of the office nm-t come first and have suuvd on the job. I take this means of reach ing those of you whom 1 have been unable to see personally in repaid to my candidacy for bhclif on he Kepublican ticket. Protection of the lives, movM welfare, and property of the citi zens of Douglas county, both old and young, rests with the sher iff's office. The sheri;f Is also en trusted with the colleotlo'i -f Maxes and with the servlco of all civil papers pertaining to the cir cuit court. These various duties of the sher iff's office require special tmlnlnpr and experience. My present office force is selected and trained for that work. If this force, be re placed, it would necessarily result In poorer service until the new force had gained the necessary ex perience. The Pacific highway brings. into our counly the hardened, exper ienced criminal as well as the ama teur. The ability to detect and apprehend the criminal can be gained only by experience in that work. In my one year in the sher iff's office I have handled over 260 cases of law violations that were followed by arrest, with ninety five per cent of convictions re sulting. " These cases included thievery, burglary, arson, moral offenses against children, prohi bition violations, and practically every other type of criminal of fense. An officer must know what evi dence H necessary In criminal cases and must know how to se cure and preserve such evidence. This knowledge can coniw only from doing that work. Finally, I believe that training gained by experience alone can guarantee protection from the criminal. No man. no matter how willing, can successfully enforce the law until he has learned that work. When you hire a man to work on ui fiiu ui la oir piHct oi business, you want one with ex perience in that particular line of work How much more necessary Is It to have a trained man in the office of sheriff who has the re sponsibility of protecting not only your property but your lives and the moral welfare of your child ren? During the year slnee 1 was ap pointed to succeed Sheriff Sam Starmer I have had the actual ex perience which Is absolutely ne cessary to efficient work In the sheriff office. Prior to that time I had served as deputy sheriff and on the police force. Because of my training in this line of work, and nn the strength of my record as sheriff for the last year. I can confidently pledce that. If elected sheriff on November 6th. I can and ; will give Douglas county an effi cient snd economical dmlnlstra ; tlon of the sheriff's off(ri and hon- est and thorough protection iroin the law violator. Respectfully submitted.
