An Abla Presentation of :ttie Issues By The
Senior Senator From Oregon
Somebody is going to be elected presi
dent of the 1'nited Slates in the neit
week. It may be said with safety
that it will not be Hisgen, 01 Watson, or
Debs, or the gentleman in t he peniten
tiary. The country will survive either
horn of the remaining dilemma. Koth
parties are vociferating their confidence
in the reenlt. This is customary. The
other party those who are putting up
their tuoncr on the issue are unemo
tional and unaffected by the hysterics
of politics. The gamblers in such cu.ea
are the safest prognostieatnrs.
Cnited State Senator Charles W. Iiil-

saying that ht had always stood in with
the ladles and ha.t lie was the first legis

favor of woman suffrage; that was In
1S78. He also said that the first politi
cal speech he ever made was in Ualnier
in the same year. Said he was picked
up tie-cnuse 'ha was it stranger, the other
fellows knew each other too well He
tuld the story of the farmer who when
brought tip before the juuge for assault
and ba'.fery explained that he accepted
all ki ads of insults from the tramp who
came to his home, ate his fine meal
smoki-sl his pipe, put his feet on his
