BEN SELLING FOR UNITED STATES SENATOR
That Oregon should be represented In the United Stales senate by a man
thoroughly Identified with the state: a man familiar with the needs of every
section of the commonwealth, and a man who stands tor modern and
progressive ideas In politics, there la not the least doubt
Fortunately indeed for Oregon Ben Soiling of Portland haa, after mature
deliberation, decided to let hla name be used In connection with the seaator
After being repeatedly urged by friends to enter the race Mr. Selling
was not content to do so until he bad more fully consulted the people. In
"""am he has ever had explicit faith. He accordingly wrote letters to a
number of voters In the different sections asking what they would advise
In the matter, and he received In reply over 14,000 personal requests pledging
Ihhn loyal support and asking that he by all meana enter the contest It was
not until these letters reached his desk that Mr. Selling decided to run. He
baa taken the people Into hla confidence, not after nomination, not at a time
when election is near, but before the primaries. No committee brought out
Ben Selling, no organisation promoted his candidacy. It was a straight
appeal to the people and that appeal met with a tremendous request tor him
to enter.
Many will no doubt like to know something of the career of this man who
would be senator. He was born In California in 1852, ten years later removing
o Oregon with his parents. As a boy he attended the Portland Academy
where he received his education. While very young he started hla business
career as a clerk, working as most clerks did In those days, early and late,
to obtain his start in life. How well he succeeded is best told by a business
career which has been marked by such dealing throughout as to cause the
general expression toward him, "Ben Selling is on the square and he is a
good citizen," which can be heard on every side in Portland at the present
time.
j Selling as a Progressive.
It can truthfully be said that Ben Selling Is one of the original prog
ressives in Oregon politics. As far back as 1896 this man was fighting for
the people and against ring rule. During the nauseating "hold up" legislature
which sent the name of Oregon around the world as a stench to the nostrils
of good citizenship, this man was working to enact laws giving more power
to the people and to dethrone the corrupt machine. He was responsible for
the passage of a bill in 1898 which eliminated the gigantic steal caused by a
tee system in the office of district attorney and placing that office on a fiat
salary. He is found later fighting successfully for the passage of an eight
hour law, the child labor law and many, many more measures which have
proved a Godsend to the people of Oregon, and which have helped remove
this state from a condition that was worse than Tammany ever dared inflict
c-n New York bringing It to the foreground of progressive government
Applying strict business principles to his every act as a public official,
always advocating economy In public expenditures, Mr. Selling, today stands
before the people of Oregon on a platform that carries assurance of honest
aeffort for n-any federal measures needed by this state, and measures that can
be obtained from tha national congress If a man is elected who will work
earnestly and consistently for them as Ben Selling has worked for the
passage of the people's laws In the slate legislature.
Among the issues pledged In his platform are tariff reform with Justice to
producer and consumer, development of Oregon's rivers and harbors, federal
land court to expedite the claims of settlers, parcels post, Alaska development,
free use of the forest reserves by actual settlers, federal control of corpora
tions, a monetary system free from the influence of Wall street, presidential
primaries, direct election of president, vice president and United States
senators, thus placing the government wholly and entirely, from the national
capitol to the city hall, in the hands of the people.
GERMANS ARE FOR SELLING
Prominent German Paper Voices Its
Sentiment.
When Robert Mantell, the actor,
was in Portland, two weeks ago, he
presented the play "Julius Caesar."
In the very opening scene two sen
ators give an illustration of their idea
of their ofTice. They meet a crowd of
workingmen on the street, and com
mand them to get back to thr-ir trades.
and exchange their holiday garments
tor the leather aprons of their crafts.
A senator those days didn't think
much of the people.
A Roman senator didn't have to live
In the district that paid him. He was
not required to know the people who
supported him. He scorned his con
stituency, and knew no more of them
than that they promptly and plenti
fully furnished him with money. He
spent the money for his own aggran
dizement, and never gave an account
ing. That would have been belittling
to the dignity of a senator.
Here In America we don't approve
of a senator who ignores the people.
Oregon doesn't indorse a senator who
ban tho Roman idea of his office,' and
f):e aristocrat's estimate of the peo
ple. L'or tho paiit six yoars Oregon has
"I
f "
i
been paying the salary of a Caius Cas
sius style of senator at Washington;
a senator who ignores the people who
support him, and avoids the contam
ination of residence among them.
The people of Oregon want a sen
ator who knows the people, and who
believes in them; who is interested
in them, and proves his position by
making himself one of them. Oregon
wants a senator who recognizes man
hood even in working clothes; who
doesn't demand that his fellow citi
zens put on evening dress before they
will be permitted to shake hands with
him;' who concedes the just demands
of labor, and would put the lightest
burden on the shoulders least able to
carry It.
Oregon men and women want Ben
Selling to be their senator at Wash
ington. They have tried the Roman
aristocrat, non-resident type, and they
Bon't like it. The manhood of the
state Is for Selling. The Zeltung.
Will Win In a Walk.
It is beginning to look like an easy
ride for Ben Selling to the United
States Senate. Formerly there was
no telling what the legislature would
do, but now it is a pretty certain thing
that it will follow the wishes qt the
people. Redmond Hub. i
