The last named is not represented on the Oregon ballot. Should a voter feel so disposed, under the electorial vote svstem. he could cast on e-fifth o f a vote for the five candidates on the ballot. The odds are favorable to Harding’s election. The senate seems sure to be democratic. It is generally conceded that Harding will carry O re g o n. C h a m b er- lain will be elected senator.

That is exactly what you will help to do if you do nothing to prevent the passage of measure Xo. 314 and 315 on the November ballot entitled, “ Con stitutional Amendment Fixing Legal Rate o f Interest in Oregon.” This measure proposes to limit the rate o f interest in Oregon to 5 per cent. You can, by law, fix the rate o f interest in Oregon, but you cannot, by law, force the loaning of money in this state, when a much liigher rate can be secured elsewhere. The passage o f this measure would force the withdrawal o f the millions o f foreign capital which is today loaned on factories, business and real estate in the state and send your local money owners outside of the state to better investments, Passage of this measure would mean foreclosure of thousands o f mort gages; would result in financial paralysis, and would mean widespread unem ployment. You, no doubt, understand the visiousness of this measure, but have you talked to your neighbors and friends about it? We urge you to do everything you can to defeat this measure. Oregon's reputation as a sound state for in vestments requires that this measure be overwhelmingly defeated.
