BOURNE CARRIED FOUR.
Ben Selling received the Republi
can nomination in the direct, primary
election by a plurality of 6500 over
Senator Bourne. Mr. Selling made
his race on his record as a progres
sive. He submitted his record as a
pioneer and consistent advocate and
supporter of progressive legislation
in this state. The people approved
that record and nominated him. In
the primaries, Mr. Selling carried 27
of the 34 counties, as against four for
Bourne and three for Judge Stephen
A. Lowell, of Pendleton, who is ac
tively supporting the Republican nom
inee. Mr. Selling is today standing
on the same record and platform that
won for him the nomination. He is
entitled to the vote of every elector
who believes in popular government
&s is typified in Oregon's progressive
laws.
NO SINGLE TAX THERE.
With an assurance that would have
a brass monkey absolutely backed
BUT THEY COULDN'T KEEP
from the boards, Single Tax advo
cates all over the state, of Oregon
have been urging Single Tax for the
state of Oregon, on the, grounds that
it has been proven a success in Brit
ish Columbia.
But they have not got Single Tax
in British Columbia, although some
improvements are exempt from taxa
tion. They do not intend to have Sin
gle Tax.
Why, Henry George ' would turn
over in his grave could he know that
Oregon Single Taxers would point
with the finger of pride to British
Columbia. Henry George would dis
own Single Tax if the British. Colum
bia scheme had to be Single Tax.
A' revenue poll tax of $3.00 per
head is collected from every male in
habitant of the Province.
It may be remembered that under
the guise of repealing the poll tax
in Oregon Mr. U'Ren imposed county
home rule in taxation on this state.
Mr. U'Ren declares this was no trick
but an honest first step towards Sin
gle Tax.
If he is correct, why then does he
point with pride to British Columbia,
inhere they have poll tax, as a Single
Tax province?
Simply because Single Tax cannot
stand save on misrepresentation, lies
and deceit. Single Tax, Graduated
Single Tax call it what you will is
an attempt to confiscate all property
to the state. Henry George says so.
He ought to know.
'EVERY PROSPECT PLEASES"
Bradstreet's Report Says That Trade
Continues Its Onward
March.
Bradstreet's Report, a recognized
authority on business conditions,
sums up the present prosperity in the
following words:
Every prospect pleases and trade
continues its onward march. Cumula
tive strength appears to be the order
of the day. The quickening impulses
of better things are extending to sec
tions that heretofore have been rela
tively backward, and what is most sig
nificant, garnered crops contribute
even higher yields than were antici
pated a fortnight ago, with those yet
to he gathered corn and cotton giv
ing evidence of astonishing good
progress. The crop situation is such
as to generate' optimism, the influ
ences of "-'lirh on trade are clearly
apparent all over the west.
"Steel business was never better,
specifications in August were of rec
corrt proportions, pig iron is active at
an unprecedented rate of production,
and higher prices have been named
on a number of finished lines. Job
bers of dry goods have enjoyed a
good house trade despite the holidays,
visiting buyers, still being in evidence,
and road sales are larger, while busi
ness for spring is opening in a good
way with first hands."

FORESEE AN ERA
OFPROSPERITY
Julius Kruttschnitt and - Otto
KahnTell of Increased Busi
ness Everywhere.
OTHERS ECHO SENTIMENT
Politics Introduces the Only Element
of Uncertainty.
From the New York Sun, Sept., 11,
1912:
Prosperity for the United States and
Its insular possessions was predicted
by many returning passengers on the
Kronprinz Wilhelm of the North Ger
man Lloyd line. Among the most op
timistic was Julius Kruttschnitt, vice
president of the Harriman railroad
lines.
Mr. Kn:schnitt bases his roseate
predictions on the reports he received
through tht newspapers and from the
officials of the Harriman system. He
thinks that the prosperity wave will
extend throughout the country.
Among those who are confidently
looking for good times is Otto Kahn of
the firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., who
sailed for Europe on the Mauretania
this morning. In discussing business
conditions throughout the country Mr.
Kahn declared the big crops of this
year indicated a revival of prosperity
and increased business.
But Mr. Kahn was careful to point
out that there was danger to business
from politics and unsettling legisla
tion. He said in part:
"When any one tells you, as many
are saying, that the business revival
is going on regardless of politics, you
can laugh at him," he said. "It will
not. It is true that the country is all
ready for the great prosperity. The
crops are wonderful, the greatest we
have seen. Business is running smooth
ly. Factories are operating at full
capacity, labor is well employed. The
outlook is good. But business will
not cut loose into any great boom.
"Politics is one big factor. Wilson
is an uncertainty. He has been giv
ing us a great deal of loose talk late
ly on one thing, concerning the inabil
ity of American business men and
bankers to handle their business. Pres
idents cannot afford to indulge in
loose talk."
IN MINES AND QUARRIES
Industries Which Have Greatly Pros
pered Under President Taft.
From the Quincy, 111., Whig:
The mining and quarrving Industry
is one of the greatest industries in
the United States. During the ad
ministration of President Taft the
miners have prospered, there have
been fewer strikes than ever, and why
should the miners vote for a change?
The best is none too good for ithe
working people of this country, and
they .have been getting the best dur
ing the past four years. Can they
expect f anything better under the
administration of a Democratic presi
dent, when history teaches us that
this would.be an utter imposibility?
Illinois has 86,389 persons engaged
in the industry, a larger number than
any other state in the east north cen
tral grouo. which consists of the
state of O'o. Indiana. Illinois, Mich
igan and Wisconsin. Do the voters
of this great state want to continue
to prosper, or do they prefer to go
back to the old days when thev
worked for starvation wages? This
is something for the thinking men of
this country to ronflpr over. Tou
cannot get away from the cold facts.
Prosperity Wave Increasing.
"The prosperity wave is increasing
daily," said President Benjamin F.
Bush, of the Missouri Pacific-Iron
Mountain system. "I wish," he adds,
"that the railroads were going to
share equally in the profits with oth
er lines of business, but the prevailing
rates are low and operating expenses
are great."
Mr. Bush's interview shows that the
Interstate Commerce commission, un
der President Taft, is protecting the
Interests of the people and that
wages were never higher than they
Shetland Wool.
A curious historical legend is con
nected with Shetland wool. Over 300
years ago a man of war belonging to
the Spanish armada was wrecked on
one of the islands. The sailors who es
caped taught the natives to make bril
liant dyes from roots which they found,
resembling those used for like purposes
in Spain. Those persons who now wear
bright Shetland knit comforters are
unconsciously wearing mementos of the
"invincible" armada. London Standard.
