It »ays it now because it ought to be said now. It would not have him, nor any man, penalized through politics, or partisanship, or newspaper unfairness, for having performed to the state of Oregon and to the Northwest an invaluable service in creating here a great wool depot, and in helping lay the foundation for an important industry in the manufacture of wool products of all kinds. What encourage Every day the Administration is seeking men who have the “know how” to help win the war. After the war, when the reconstruction period comes, practical men will be required to work out the big problems of the Nation. Stanfield is the type of man needed by the ¡Government. Oregon can again do its bit by nominating and electing Stanfield. Stanfield is not a politician. Hefhas been doing constructive labor for the state all his life. Listen to the following: “He (Stanfield) was practically unknown in the political affairs of the state prior to his election as Speaker of the House, two years ago.”—Oregon Labor Press. That is true. Stanfield was not playing politics but was developing an industry (see Oregonian quotation above) when his opponent was taking political appointments from Democrats and Republicans whenever he could get them. Stanfield was building himself through his awn efforts and creating a pay roll for the state while his opponent was either holding politi cal jobs, to which he was not elected, or was representing corporations at Salem. There are two points to be settled by the voters May 17: The first is whether they want better representation at Washington; representation which will bring results to Oregon, and if so, Stanfield is the man. The second point is whether the Republicans of Oregon want a 100 per cent Repsblican or a 50-50 Demo.-Rep. The nomination of Stanfield is the only thing which will save the Republican party in Oregon from falling into the handa of the Democratic boss, for the protege, friend and col league of the Democratic boss is Stanfield’s opponent. ment can Portland offer to others to invest their capital here, contrib uting a share to the development of desirable enterprise U they are to be assailed and libeled merely because they happen to be candi dates for office?- Oregonian Editorial, May 12. 0 Ik. I f I 1 The foregoing is respectfully referred to the Journal and the Telegram, who complain that Seattle io alwayo taking pay rolls away from Portland, and then attack Stanfield because he has built up an Industry benefiting every citizen of Portland and Oregon. Do you want to send to Washington a Senator who has initiative and who will strive to obtain recognition for Oregon, or do you want a Senator who simply introduces bills for press agent purposes? Stanfield’s opponent does not believe that Oregon has been discriminated against What do you think? What has been done to develop Oregon’s Arid lands? Where are there any cantonments in Oregon, although this state has contributed 20,000 young men to the service? Where are the airplaues being manufactured, for which Oregon supplies the spruce? The list of things Oregon has not received can be continued interminably. To remedy these conditions and get results, a business man is better equipped ¡than a lawyer. The Government is commandeering business men, not barristers, these days. A It is up to, Mr. and Mrs. Republican voter. (Paid Adv., by Btaafivld BvnatorUl Leo ifu«. 203 Northwestern Bank Bide.)

Runyon, 1519 First National Bank Building, . San Francisco. It should be a clear picture for reproduction purposes. There is just one other thing: Boys overseas want to see the old home newspaper. There are many persons in your community that would be glad to pay the subscription price to have your paper sent to the American Y. M. C. A. headquarters, 12 Rue d’Aguesseau, Paris, and the Associa tion overseas will see that the paper gets into the hands of soldiers from the Pacific Coast. We must keep the soldier boy in touch with home. It’s the biggest thing in the world to keep him braced up. When he knows the people at home are behind him to a man, he will fight the harder. Home means everything to the soldier. Let’s keep him in close touch with it as much as we can. Again thanking you, believe me, very sincerely, F. F.
