Never in the history of the nation hive voters recorded ther votes re gardless of party lines as they have In the past few years. Oregon, the mother of many reforms, is proof of this statement. This Illustrates be yond question that unless a political party does the right thing voters wl!I not be bound by Its action. It also gves opportunity for the raising of much talk Ic opposition to the party that does the right thing at times azd causes defeat through unfair ac cusation. But Oregon voters sre alive to the pr"fSant situation.

Republicanism In Oregon is just as iood. as pure, as honest as ever, and within the state boandaries It has a right to assert Itself. In a national way the voter may do as his consci ence telis hiui. but no one can find f?v!t with state, district and c atity tickets. , Virginians at Arcade Tonight In th! production we have an am bitious pictured version of James 3.
