This enables a minority of considerably less than one- tenth of the voters to send one man by concentrating on him. If wanted I will serve, and those desiring me to do so can put an'X mark before my name and write it in. This is my platform, which I would rather stay at home on than go to Baltimore on any other: “ ‘Oregon system to national affairs. All tariffs are frauds. Tax special privi leges and franchises for national support. Demands of A. F. of L. on national is sues. Government ownership and opera tion of railroads and public utilities.

TOBIN, Praident Since I ran my last ad three dealers in “ready-to-hop-in-clotlies’ have called me up and said I was knocking them. T don’t want to knock anybody. It doesn’t pay. I simply told the truth about men who know good tailoring and their experience in trying to make an “approximate measure” lit their individual needs. When I measure a man for a suit the measurements are carefully put down ia a book and the cloth, after thorough sponging, is cut to these measurements—your exact measurements. T hat’s why Barkhurst clothes fit and their wearers become my patrons. This expert Union tailoring and my low prices, $ 2 2 .0 0 to $ 5 0 .0 0 , made possible by my large volume of business and thorough organization of Union men and women, is why I am doing the largest high-grade tailoring business in the city.
