JAMES U. CAMPBELL
LEGISLATIVE RECORD
SERVED THE PEOPLE OF CLACK
AMAS COUNTY WITH ABIL
ITY LAST SESSION.
James U. Campbell, who is seek
ing the nomination on the Republi
can ticket for the Legislature, has
served one term In that body and
made a splendid record.
He advocates more stringent Bank
ing Laws, Preservation of Natural
resources. One Normal school and
abolition of all others. Keeping tax
roll open a greater length of time and
the payment of taxes by the counties
to the state in monthly Installments.
He has subscribed to Statement No.
1.
In attempting to give a line on the
work of the members of the last leg
islature, The Portland Telegram after
the session ended, published a flat
tering statement relative to Mr.
Campbell's ability and the things he
accomplished. In an editorial The
Telegram said:
"For forty days a body of men have
been engaged in doing public, work at
the Legislature. Some of them have
done well, some of them not so well,
,vhllo a proportion undoubtedly have
served rather the special Interests
than the public. During this long
term it is next to impossible for a
.'to"'-' 'rW-o v-V
' " "4
man to hide from a close and unpreju
diced observer where he really stands.
On this basis he Is entitled to praise
or blame, and it Is only fair that his
constituents, wherever they may be,
should be given a line on the men so
thnt whon they next appear for public
office they may know precisely what
to expect from them.".
Under the heading of "Campbell
Clean Polltlelan," the Telegram said:
"J. U. Campbell was emphatically a
'fornluster.' He was the best parlia
mentarian In tho House, a resource
ful tighter, usually had to battle with
the other leaders and the Speaker be
sides, and yet won as many battles as
any member. He introduced few
bills and helped kill scores. He fought
every big appropriation as a matter of
course, whether the appropriation was
needed or not, and he caused the ma
jority in the House more uneasy
hours than any other half dozen men.
No one ever said that Campbell did
not fight fair, and no ono accused him
of pledging his support to a measure
aud then betraying the trust, as oth
ers In the House did, and no one ever
did parliamentary battle with him
without knowing that he had been
through something. Campbell Is a
politician, but a clean one. He was
tho only man on the floor of the
Houso this session who had backbone
enough to stand up and be counted
when there were 59 members against
him, aud the only man who dared cut
loose from tie-ups and tell the machine
to do Its worst. Ho manufactured a
record that will make mighty good
reading for his constituents, and gen
erally headed the procession though
often there was only one In the pro-

cession."
The Telegram speaks of a "Small
Band of Notables," and says:
In the little band of men to be
noted may be Included Speaker Frank
Davey, of Marlon, John B. Coffey and
John Driscoll of Multnomah, J. U.
Campbell of Clackamas-Multnomah,
George F. Rodgers of Marlon, C. S.
Jackson of Douglas, W. K. Newell ol
Washington, W. I. Vawter of Douglas-Jackson,
and John C. McCue of
Clatsop. There were other men who
were known for bills they Introduced,
as Chapin of Multnomah and Burns
of Multnomah; there were men who
became known for some one fight, as
Eaton, of Lane In the university strug
gle and Rothchild for his tribute to
Bryan; others who were known for
one policy, as Purdy for economy and
Edwards for advocacy of normals by
the dozen, but the handful mentioned
were the real workers in the House,
so far as debate, manipulation or con
test went.
Good Word for Campbell.
During the last session of the State
Legislature, J. H. Fletcher was a cor
respondent for several of the news
papers of the State. He was present
at Salem during the entire session and
kept a close watch on proceedings. In
the issue of the St. Johns Review of
March 8, Mr. Fletcher reviewed the
work of the legislature, and said that
the body as a whole was not particu
larly commendable as a rule. The ex
ception he made is shown in the fol
lowing article: ,
"There were several members in
both house and senate who honestly
tried to do their duty to their consti
tuents. And foremost among these,
allow me to say was our joint repre
sentative, Hon. James U. Campbell,
of Oregon City. Representing as he
did a class who were largely Inhabi
tants of cities and towns, I did not
look for this. But from the very start
he took a manly stand in behalf of the
laboring classes. So far as I can see
he supported every measure calculat
ed to benefit the state, and he stoutly
opposed everything that looked like
graft or a useless waste of the public
funds. The people of St. Johns would
do well to remember him should they
ever have a chance to vote for him
again. He was Indeed the friend of
the people. Such men are scarce and
should be appreciated when we have
them. Addressing the House shortly
before the legislature adjourned, Mr.
Campbell said: "The way this legis
lature has appropriated money out
of the treasury for various purposes
In different parts of the State, reminds
me of a gang of robbers gathered to
gether to divide the loot."

MOODY GAINING OmuUND.
A Strenuous and Clean Fight for As
sessor on Republican Ticket.
Harry S. Moody, candidate for as
sessor on the Republican ticket Is
putting up a vigorous campaign and
is undoubtedly gaining strength every
day. His platform meets with the ap
proval of nearly all the Republican
voters. The energy and enthusiasm
which he displays In behalf of an
equitable and just assessment Is
coimting votes for Harry. What es
pecially Is noted Is the fairness with
which he treats the other candidates
for the same office. He is certainly
making a clean, decent campaign with
lots of push and vim. These are qual
ities that are needed In the next as
sessor of Clackamas County. The fact
that he has never before held a coun
ty office, and that he stands for a
new deal and a just assessment
counts.
E. D. OLDS, Statement No. 1 Candi
date for Representative.
I am a candidate for the Republi
can nomination for Representative In
the Legislature. I stand for repeal of
the three per cent tax rebate, election
of road supervisors, equal legislation
for the employer and the employee.
No special legislation and not pet
measures drawn, in the Interest of par
ticular corporations.
I am the only candidate who came
out unequivocally for Statement No.
1 on entering this race. If nominated
and elected I can and will serve the
plain people of Clackamas County
faithfully and earnestly in all matters
that come within my official duty.
