REPUBLICAN VOTERS
SHOULD BEWARE
Party Should Be Represented
on National Committee
Dy a Republican
The Republicans of Oregon are en
titled to have a Republican named aa
the National Republican Committee
man from this State. C. W. Ackerson.
who claims to be a Republican, la a
candidate. He registered aa a Progrea
alve January S, 1914. Then signed petl
tlon of H W'. foe to be Progreaslre
National Committeeman. Then can
celled his registration as a Progres
sive and registered as n Republican
and Immediately filed his candidacy
for membership on Republican Nation
al Committee. Mas been nn Intimate
and convenient understudy of the Pro
greKHlve National Committeeman and
aeems now to be In combination with
him In nn attempt to shanghai the
Republican organization. Ills candi
dacy Is being actively backed by par
ties hostile to the Republican party
and having personal interests and pri
vate personal grudges to serve. Ills
erratic and excitable temperament has
frequently led him to flood the col
umns of the press with violent attacks
upon the Republican party and vicious
personal abuse of prominent Republi
cans and lifelong residents of the
State.
It Is a grave nhuse for parties who
are not Republican to register aa auch.
It la a graver abuse for outsiders to
attempt the capture of a political par
ty to grntlfy a personal grudge and
to promote purty discord. It la an
abuse against which fair minded men
of ail parties will rlso In protest. We
can never have a reunited party by
pushing to the front political hotheads
and men who are political reformers
simply for the sake of office Having
been a Republican only twenty four
hours when he announced his candi
dacy for the hlghi-st honorary position
In the gift of the party, Is some Indi
cation of Mii.u Mr. Ackerson's motive
was In registering as a Republican.
As Hon Ralph K. Wlll!s;ns Is the only
llepubllcan vtho Is a candidate for
Republican National Comtiillteeinau,
we feel mii rran led III urging all loyal
Iti-publlcans In the stale lo give him
