MR. SCLUINQ
Senator Den Selling bas nn
nouneed hit Intention to con
tett for the Hepublltan nomina
tion for Unltod State senator.
For a number of year the
political oe-urte of Mr. Selling
and The Journal have run along
much the same line. Support
of progressive methods of gov
ernmcnt In Oregon when they
were badly In need ef support,
brought Mr. Selling and The
Journal on common ground.
When there was need of
Statement One candidates for
the legislature, they were not
always easy to find. There was
a time when most of tho higher
ups of the Republican party In
Oregon were, and some of them
still are, against Statement One.
It was In suoh a time that Mr.
Selling was a welcome addition
to the forces that wero striving
for direct election of senator,
and for elimination of disgrace
ful deadlocks at Salem.
Without at all entering Into
the support of Mr. Selling's pres
ent candidacy, It Is as littlo as
The Journal can do to thus ack
nowledge the aid Mr. Selling
has been to the cauio of popu
lar government In Oregon, on
acknowledgment that, In fair
ness, Is also due to Senator
Dourne.

WILLIAM HANLEV
Hanley came out of the Selling head
quarters yesterday looking cheerful,
Reflecting that Mr- Selling In his plat
form had definitely committed him
self to securing for Oregon Its Just
share of the reclamation fund for
promoting various Irrigation projects
In this state, Mr. Hanley ssid it would
bo advisable for tho voters of this
state to elect a senator who could bo
depended upon to do nil In his power
to secure for the state all that belong
ed to It In the way of money for ori
ginating and completing Irrigating en
terprlses.
"Up to the present time the state
of Oregon Is short about J8.000.000 of
its part of the reclamation fund, mon
ey that should have been used for the
construction of Irrigation projects In
this state and which money was ao'
tually given to other states," said Mr.
iianley.
'Mr. Selling is pledged to the re
covery of that money for use hero, and
If anybody can do it I am convinced
that he will at least lend bis best ef
forts in that direction. My acquaint
ance of several years with Mr. Selling
has convinced me that he always has
stood square-toed to the front for
Oregon Interests and It is about time
we had such a representative at Wash

Prof. W. C. Alderson
The name used as a caption for
this article is familiar to "most .of
our. readers, Professor Alderson
was for many years n teacher, and
wus in chnrue of the St. John
schools, as principal, for some time
severing his connection with them
about four years since.
1 lie professor is now in the cm
ploy of the city of Portland, as head
of the filing department in the office
of the city engineer. lie gaiuct
this position as the result of n sc
ries of promotions from t)ie work
first assigned to him by tile city cit
glueer. Having passed the civ
service examination to establish
his eligibility, and being regularly
appointed soon tliercaltcr, his po
sition is one for life if he will hav
it so,
Profcstior Alderson is still
school man, and probably will be
all his life. He was elected last
October, as principal of thu night
school conducted in the Lincoln
High school building. His work
was eminently successful. One
the teachers with him there, and of
whom he is loud in his praise,
Professor A. P. Armstrong, a can

Alderson, printed in another column
of this issue, sets lortli the views 0

the position mentioned.

an editorial in the livening Tele

night school work of Professor A!

For County Assessor
HH
I will give personal attention to the office. You will find
me on the job all the time.
Expenses of the Assessor's office have increased 272 per
cent since 1903. I will separate the office from politics,
and that will save the taxpayers' money.
I will not permit deputy assessors to pass out election cards
and campaign literature enclosed in assessment blanks.
I will conduct the Assessor's office according to law. No
juggling with the assessment roll.
I will make the Assessor's office an open book to the tax
payers. No star-chamber proceedings go with me.
Multnomah County assessments have been increased at the
rate of nearly 30 per cent a year since 1904. Assess
ments climb year after year, and the tax rate climbs
with them. The tax burden falls heavily upon all
classes of people, but heaviest upon the little home
owner. I think the time has come to investigate these
heavy increases and see what justifies them. What
do you think?
I Belfevb in- economy in public expense, but not in parsi
mony. We cannot tax ourselves rich, but we can tax
ourselves poor. Therefore, I am opposed to excessive
increases in assessments and excessive taxes. If you
believe as I do, vote for me in the primaries on April 19.
Multnomah County has been my home for forty-one years.
' I pay taxes on land as well as on personal property.
