Nearly all diseases of the skin, such

tense Itching and smarting, which
often makes life a burden and dis

Republican Candidate for Representative
CHAMPION OF STATEMENT
(I take the pledge No ifs nor ands)
Statement No. 1 is a Republican measure, given to the Republican
party of Oregon by a Republican legislature. Its purpose is to eliminate
graft and bribery in the Republican party of Oregon. To declare that it
is going to turn the state over to the Democrats is an admission of weak
ness on the part of those who make the argument. Others say, "We want
to destroy even the possibility of a Democrat being elected to the senate."
Now, if you want to strengthen a man before the people of a state or na
tion, just bind him hand and foot, and put him' in the race where he
doesn't stand a ghost of a show. Do this often enough and the people will
repudiate you bodily. They will turn you down. If a man's cause is weak,
give him a show and the people will think more of you and come nearer
endorsing your leadership. No man is capable of leadership who Is not
willing to be guided by those principles of just and right which are as
fixed and unchangeable as the eternal hills. Even on the field of battle in
times of war, there are certain rights we must respect and accord toward
our enemy. If we did not the nations of tho earth would turn against us.
As sure as the sun shines, Oregon is going to be delivered from that old
disgraceful system of graft, bribery, boodle and hold-ups in her legisla
ture, and it Is going to be accomplished through Statement No. 1, Have
you noticed that those newspapers that are saying Statement No. 1 is a
good thing are also saying the initiative and referendum is a bad thing?
They are saying the primary law Is a bad thing. It puts too much power
into the hands of the people. They don't want to see officers take their
proper places as public servants; they want to see them as bosses and dic
tators. But the people are going to do the bossing this time and if they
decide the politicians and corporation-hired newspapers can do better
for them than they can do for themselves, then they may turn it over to
them. But not yet. Let me say to the people of Clackamas county, In
God's name hold fast to these rights you have, and let's go forward and
upward. If we must, let us fight to the last man, and then we will say
to him, "Don't give up the ship!"
