Ontario Pliarmacy "CAPITAL and INDUSTRY Keep Out!" WOULD YOU, AS A PATRIOTIC CITIZEN OF OREGON, PLACE SUOH A SIGN ON THE BORDERS OF THE STATE? That is exactly what yon will help to do if you do nothing to prevent the passage of measure No. .1M and 1115 on the November ballot entitled, "Con stitutional Amendment Fixing Legal Rate of Interest in Oregon." This measure proposes to limit the rate of interest in Oregon to 5 per cent. You can, by law, fix the rate of interest in Oregon, but you cannot, by law, force the loaning of money in this state, when a much higher rate can be se cured elsewhere. The passage of this measures would force the withdrawal of the millions of 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 of mort gages; would result in financial paralysis, and would mean widespread unem ployment. You, no doubt, understand the viciousness 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 investments requires that this measure be overwhelmingly defeated. VOTE 315 X NO AND URGE YOUR FRIENDS TO DO LIKEWISE. - r STATE TAXPAYERS LEAGUE PaU Adfartlum.nl net The Resources of the West -:. ? Protect Your Investment in Idaho Power Company's 7 per cent Preferred Stock Tho growth of tho Idaho Power Company is as oj tain as tho Future of tho gretit territory which it serves. At the present timo, Southern Idaho and Eastern Oregon aro undergoing remarkablo development. Great sections of farming land aro boing opened. New industries are springing up. Old onos aro growing. All this means tho demand for more electric power and the certain growth of tho Idaho Power Company. Already ten groat generating plants, with all their transmission and distributing lines, supply power to more than 32,000 customers. , , .

When you buy a share of Preferred Stock you become a part owner in this industry, the future of which is as certain as the future of this great ' Western territory. WHY YOUR 7 INTEREST IS SURE This 7 per cent Preferred Stock really con stitutes a mortgage on tho Idaho Power Com pany's property. That is tho meaning of Pre foxred Stock. It ip sold to obtain part of tho money needed for further development; but tho entire Idaho Power Company's system stands as its security. And here is the reason why your 7 per cent in-. terest is absolutely assured every year. That interest is paid out of tho Company's annual in como before tho Common Stcck owners receive one cent of dividends. Por instance, because of our low rates, Com mon Stock owners last year received less than 2 per cent interest on their investment. Yet, the full 7 per cent interest was paid on every dol lar's worth of Preferred Stock that had been sold by the Company. And that will alwavs bo the case. That is whv your 7 per cent interest is always assured.
