Joseph for the welfare of the State and its people. HIS FIRST APPEARANCE in the political arena years ago was as the champion of the Australian ballot system so that the people might cast their ballot in secret without coercion. HE NEXT CHAMPIONED the direct primary law so that the people themselves might nomi nate candidates to office without dictation from .. corporate interests or political bosses. HE NEXT ESPOUSED the Initiative so the people might enact their own laws; the Referen dum so that they might nullify vicious legisla tion, and the Recall so that they might retire un faithful officials from office. IN THE 1911 SENATE he introduced a reso lution recommending the adoption of the Equal Suffrage Amendment so that the women might enjoy the sacred right of the franchise on an equality with the men. IN THIS SAME SESSION he introduced a bill creating a Stale Highway Board which was the forerunner of legislation resulting in our mag nificent highway system and was instrumental in later sessions in releasing highway construc tion from the grip of the blacktop paving monopoly. IN THE PRESENT CAMPAIGN Senator Joseph is making public development of our water power resources without cost to the tax payers his major issue, to the end that Oregon may be liberated from the stifling and blight ing control of the power monopoly and forge ahead industrially and agriculturally. IN THE PRESENT CAMPAIGN Senator Joseph is also espousing the sacred constitu tional right of free speech and justice to every citizen, the abolition of the Public Service Com mission and a return to the home rule principle for the control and regulation of public utilities. All these principles are of vital importance to the State and its people. ... . ... M I" .i. 1 5 JT ... ...?.' -1 j-t' 0m 3 H It " 11 t 3 GEORGE W. JOSEPH The Leading Republican Candidate for Governor Read What the State Press Says: Just a few- newspaper comments illustrative of the esteem in which Joseph the man is held even by those who differ from him politically: "Not many men who have served in a public capacity in Oregon have so good a record for clean politics, clean government and clean citizenship." The Oregon Journal. "An eloquent and forceful orator and able floor leader, he repeatedly championed sound legislation that had been doomed to defeat, with the result that it emerged triumphant." The Portland Telegram. "Joseph has a long record of anti-power trust activity behind him." Portland News. "We hold an admiration for Mr. Joseph's splendid ability that we do not attempt to con ceal. He has one of the keenest minds that we have ever observed. Klamath Falls Herald. "George W. Joseph is now far in the lead, sure, unless something extraordinary occurs, of the Republican nomination." Klamath Basin Progress. , "More people are attending the Joseph meet ings than there are attending those of any other two candidates combined." Umpqua Courier. "The times are peculiarly suited to Senator Joseph's candidacy." Portland Spectator. "He has personality, initiative and fearless ness." Salem Hollywood Press. "Joseph, it is recalled, has been prominently and favorably identified in the public mind with the battles against the Telephone Company and Electric Light and Street Car Corporation." Salem Capitol Journal. "In the Senate and in this campaign he has moved that he is the common man's friend." Voodburn Independent. Oregon needs Senator Joseph's wide experience in the business world, his rare executive ability and leadership in the executive chair to bring about the adoption of this comprehensive and constructive program. Nominate JOSEPH : It is time for a change of administration at the' State capitol time to relegate politics to oblivion and usher in a progressive business administration so that Oregon may expand and its people enjoy an era of prosperity.
