No dmiht the legislature that combined nil elections pn tlie same day felt it was working the spirit and letter of economy. -Like many other political reforms, it .sounds fine' to argue the saving in election expense by having national, state, county and city officials chosen on the fiume day. " Rut, how does it work out? " This year Portland has a city election that seems to bo of far greater' interest to Portland people than is the na lional election. j La Grande has an election which bears directly on the! (tty water question, and that question will take attention' of La Grande people from national issues any time. And, it is so on down the line. Every community haft its local matters which are close to the hearts of the peo ple, while national affairs seem a long way off. The net result is that most voters lose themselves in a maze of city measures on the ballot, state measures on the ballot, together with a bevy of candidates who are being attacked from almost every angle. This very thing is probably responsible for a great many people refusing to vote at -till. So, it is doubtful if the legislature, which meant the best in the world, ac tually did the right thing when it combined all elections for the same day. have, about his letterheads). i,n "M'r "itU Fvperlencr voulri b ft iM'tier teacher IT she'll Mop to explain lhln ' Junius puis men In throe p1:ihhoh: the handsome, the Intellectual, and lite great majority, Navy officials and Navy League ' ent h usiasts, however, insist i hal ithe sinking of the Washington, as Meheiluled.

Thai's the record of our old Democratic friend, Will U. Kinjf, who by the way, is present head of the Oregon Democratic party, for he is its national committeeman. When the pulse of the "boys" around Portland was beating slowly and they expressed the fear that La Fol lette was to be second in Oregon in the presidential con test in comes Will R. King, the sage from Ontario, the rx-supremc judge by appointment, the late candidate for the senatorial nomination, and assures the Jacksonian fol lowers that there is nothing to their fear; that Davis has the thing won, and all that is left to do is to light the lwmfircs when election returns arrive. That shot of hop is just what Hairey Starkweather, Walter Pierce, Doc Morrow and the rest of the faithful needed. From now until the midnight hour preceding elec tion day there will be a Democratic campaign waged in Oregon, and if Will R. had not rode the Pullman car from the national capital the Democrats might have all voted for the Iji Follette electors in this state.

Union BECAUSE Union Gasoline is a highly scientific product, the real story of its qualities would be clearly understood only by a scientist, and the telling would require several thousand vords. In general, therefore: good gasoline results from a combination of circumstances involving ample capital in the company that pro duces it, highly developed scientific experience and skill, and the mot modern facilities for efficient manufacture and exhaustive chemical research. The Union Oil Company is In a position to employ all of the necessary means to the most desirable end. Its reputation made ' by its products-" is its greatest asset. ( In the protection of this asset it is simply good business to give you the thing that will maintain it the best fuel this company knows. i Union Gasoline has the quality of non-detonation which means less tendency toward "knocking" on hills, and in slow, heavy pulls quicker acceleration, and a smoother, more vibrationless speed.
