MORE PROSPERITY AND LESS
POLITICS WHAT IS NEtDED
Dr. Wlthyrombe' Mm na I'pbulldlng
llrir,,n in Ulirht
La Grande Observer.
An election Is near. The campaign
Is on In earnest.
The main Issue that of giving farm
legislation Is lost sight of, and why?
Hecause down In Oregon City a man
by the name of U'Ren la a part and
parcel of the Pels organisation to put
'over single tax In Oregon. U'Ren is
ably assisted by Editor Jackson, of the
Portland Journal. They know single
lux In Its raw state will not carry.
In their craftlneaa they knew they
muni befog the voter's mind.
The old issue that is used In every
state to attract public attention was
raised, presumably with the bono that
It would get the front of the stage
while i Ken and Jackson put over the
fifteen hundred dollar exemption and
other measures of a single tax nature.
The whole game Is to befog the public
mind , to raise a big smoke so that ean
diutes and Issues of their choice can
"slip" In.
They are raising every political
corpse that Oregon has ever had; they
are flaunting every disseuslou bufore
the people In the hope of stampede
and chaos.
Hut throughout their endeavor not a
single particle of legislation is prom
ised for the farmer and the farm lands.
For yeara farmers of Oregon have
been listening to the siren songs of
the politicians. There has been sbso
lutely no uniformity of thought or ac
tion on the part of the friends of agri
culture and no plan of procedure.
Many of the campaign promises now
being used by candidates would crip
ple agriculture It fulfilled, ha fact,
deatroy It In this state.
Are the farmers and those in other
lines of business benefited by the
farmers, going to continue In submis
sion to the befogging process which
Invariably results in no legislation for
the agricultural classes, but instead
puts hordes of clerks on salaries and
creates numerous commissions?
This year the people have a chance
to vote for a man who will work for
the farms, first, last and all of the
time. If we are to have an Oregon
that bases its advancement on the
land (which Is the only correct and
substantial Industry to base It upon)
then we should alt, regardless of po
litical party, vote for Wlthrconibt -the
man who believe in tbeposslbllltlesof
the soil and who respects the farmer
to the extent that he will lay other
legislation aside for a while in order
that this state may go on record with
some constructive legislation that will
advance agriculture.
WHAT THE EUROPEAN WAR
IS DOING FOR AMERICA
The wars in Europe are giving
American industries an effective Pro
tective Tariff. These wages have done
what tho most radical Protectionist has
never advocated. Thoy have stopped
Importation In some linos of goods en
tirely, because the men who formemly
made sut h goods are In the army. On
aceonnt of tho cessation of Imports a
large number of Free-Trndors are urg
ing manufacturers of chemlcnls, drugs,
dyaalaffa, etc., to enlarge their plants
and to Introduce new linen. Some of
these goods have never been made In
America. Just now there Is a big
opportunity for the home manufactur
er, but tho home manufacturer knows
that tho wars will finnlly come to an
end and that tho people of Furopo
again will work. Then the people of
Kurope will work cheaper than thwj
over have In former years because of
their anxiety to secure some kind of
employment. Thousands of men in
Kurope will not have a dollar, nor nn
extra blto of food when tho wars are
over. Therefore, the competition from
Kurope, not only on the linos wo have
named, but In all linos, will be more
savage than in any former year. Pnder
tho existing Tariff the Kuropcan manu
facturers wore rapidly taking posses
sion of tho American market. If Ameri
can industries had not suffer)! on
account or the wars, there suffering
would have been great on account f
multiplied and enlarged foreign Impor
tation. The Tariff wall erected by the
wars has set a great many men to
thinking along lines different from
their thinking In former years. Ever
valuable Industry needs Protection, not
i :n...r:ir . imt permanent. Tho xlnc
Industry was established by means of
Protection. Thta can also be said of
numerous other Industries. Inasmuch
as the Government needs the revenue
and Is at Its wits' ends for more money,
why should not the Tariff, thus start
ing toward American Industrial In
dependence? When Oermany quit
work and went to war ahe waa the
most Independent nation In the world
In an industrial sense. She accomp
lished this by a Protective Tariff. Why
should this great republic be ashamed
to charge the foreigner ror the privi
lege of doing business In the Pnlted
states Ordinarily this Is the best
market in the world. The home manu
facturer pays taxes for the privileges
of the market. Why should not the
foreigner be required to do the same?

VILLA REFUSES TO
ACCEPT CARRANZA
Chihuahua, Max. The Immediate
resignation of Carranxa as first chief
of the constitutionalists Is the only
basls on which General Francisco Vil
la will agree to the settlement of dif
ficulties between himself and Carran
tn Tbla was his reply to messages
of officials In Mexico City who pro
tested against his attitude towards
Carranxa.
Villa declared he never would ac
cept Carranxa us head of the republic.
His reply, as given out here, follows:
"I lament the circumstances that
have brought about grave danger, but
sincerely protest that my soio ambi
tion will be to arrange existing diffi
culties without shedding blood if pos
slble.
"I emphatically declare, however,
that the only move that can bring
about ceaaatlon of hostilities on my
part is thst Venustlano Carranxa de
liver supreme command to Fernando
Iglealas Calderon so that, In the short
est possible time, elections may be
called. At the same time I declare I
ahall not accept Carranxa aa president
or vice-president or president ad In
terlm of the republic.
"I aball prove the rectitude of nay
Intentions and the disinterestedness
which animates the force of tbla divi
sion. Later the world will realise
where rests true dlslnterestadBMS and
where abortive ambitions."
