IS T1IE CAMPAIGN PROGRESSES
Do you know there Is a real cam
paign on in this state?
Tbe fight is naturally centered on
the head of tbe ticket, which 1b Bow
erman on the Republican side and
West on the Democratic side of the
house. The attempt to pull the non
partisan plan on the people has, failed,
and C S. Jackson, of the Portland
Journal, who Is the only force of con
sequence behind West has settled down
to a campaign of personality with
the Journal as West's mouthniecA.
Should West win, which is almost
among the lmposslDtlltles, it will mean
that the Portland Journal with Jack
ion at ill head will dictate affairs of
state. West may be a good underman.
He has always worked as' such and
having that kind of training you must
expect nothing else, of him. Jackson
Is resourceful and cunning and would
be a boss over West In all affairs. '
If the people want the Journal in
the gubernatorial chair they can have
it by voting for West. On ths other
hand, if they want a man of the peo
ple to be governor it is necessary that
Bowerman be elected. The opposition
to Bowerman has fired Its .heavy guns.
It has had men woiklng overtime look
ing up the record of Bowerman. The
magnifylnug glass has been placed
over every day "of his life from' the
time he split wood in the town of Sa
lem to the present day. And nothing
has been found against the man. There
is nothing that even the Journal can
make stick against Bowerman. Every
time that paper springs something It
bounces off because of coming ln con
tact with the truth about the Condon
boy.
The campaign is on in earnest. It
will last several days longer during
which time quite likely the corrupt
practice act will be violated by the
enemies of 'Bowerman, but no headway
will be made. It is very, very hard to
blacken the character by false accus
ation of a man whose career Is open to
tbe public as Bowerman's is.
THE ACTIVE SMALLER CITY.
This evening the little city of Union
will hold a commercial club banquet.
That sounds good, but many will sat,
"Oh, the day of the commercial club
boosting, is almost over in the north
west" Now, the truth is, the day is
not over but in many places that day
is a dark one and lack of interest In
it has almost caused its abandon
ment. But Union is different from many

towns, either large er srcall, for Un
ion keeps pegging away whether tie
sun shines or whether . the clouds
thicken. Therein lies tbe key to sue
cessful commercial club work. It Is
easy to follow the band when the ex
cltement runs high, but the hard part
of commercial club work comes when
there is not much stirring.
. Tonight Union's business men meet
around the festal board to enjoy a
banquet and talk over what is best
for Union and the Grande Ronde val
ley. There will be one hundred -plates
and many speeches have been prepar
ed for the occasion. Did It ever occur
to you that few towns many times the
size of Union can keep thlngB going
so well. There are several live wires
In the Catherine creek town and. they
never quit working .That Is what
makes things move.
THE SUPPORT OF GAILOWAT.
Cecil Galloway, whose name appears
on the ticket for county commissioner,
will have the support of the north end
of the county practically solid regard-
ess of political parties. This Is the
strongest recommendation a man can
have, for when home folks are for him
It Is a safe guess that the man Is
right, And Cecil Galloway is right. He
lays no claim to ability as a politi
cian for bis life has been lived in a
different channel. He has been a work
er, belonging strictly to the produc
ing class and little of his time has
been spent around the countv sent.
When he was selected for county com
missioner he proved his ability, not
by experience on the official end, for
he had never had any, but because he
knew Union county and realized the
needs of the county and the people.
When a question came up In the most
remote part of the county Cecil Gallo
way Instantly understood the local sur
roundings and whit was needed. His
counsel thus aided the court in ad
Justing matters equitably- in. different
parts of thetvalley. '
Mr. Galloway will be elected be
cause he Is fitted for the place and
has made good during his present
term. ' -, ,

A Household MedicinA
To be really valuable must show
good results from each member of
the family using it. Foley's Honey
and Tar, does Just this. Whether It Is
the chronic cough of elderly people,
or whether it Is with children or
grown persons, Foley's Honey and Tar
is always safe, sure and effective. It
cures coughs, colds, croup, whoop
ing cough, and all affections of the,
throat, chest and lungs. Earl Fair, !
Waukesha, Wis., writes us recently;'
"For some years past I have bee!
a great friend of your Foley's Hone
and Tar cough1 remedy, and our fan
ily uses it for all coughs and colis.
I had a most stubborn cough wbch
gave me much distress and intfn
venience and failed to respond tcor
dinary treatments. I finally rested
to the old reliable Foley's Honeand
Tar and less than two 60 cent tjttles
effected a complete cure. I cojsider
it the greatest and best Coug? rem
edy ever made and recommeni.tQ
all." "
