TO REGISTER HOW
Chairman Ayer Desires Full
Taft Strength to Be Repre
sented at Polls.
REPORTS INDICATE GAIN!
Uurr Received by Portland Tatt
Committee Onm All Part of
State Show President I
Strnn; Kverjwlicre.
W. R JTyer. chairman of the Taft
rsmpslan rommlttee stt out an ap
peal ystrdsy to Republican roters to
register at onre so that the full Taft
strength of the state can be repre
sented at the poll. "I d-slr to em
phasise the necessity of registration."
Mld Chairman Ayer yesterday. "It la
ston!shlng how negligent and Indif
ferent men can be regarding this Im
portant duty.
"Renexts from all over Inm mate
are moat encouraging for President
Taft an! sentiment la Tery strong, but
an election cannot be carried by senti
mental voters, who remain at homt.
It l e-nt!al that the Taft voters
should register so that every vol ran
be polled when the time cornea to show
the people's choice In a more tangible
sir than by sentlmoot.
Chairman Ayer declared that the
N-rtl Iakota election. which went
strongly against Theodore Roosevelt
demonstrates the fueling of the peo
p!e regarding the third terra proposi
tion. "The most serious Issue of the
Presldentlsl campaign has been that
of the third term,- said Chairman Ayer.
Th action of North Dakota showing
the disapproval of the third term la
an Indication of the temper of the
American people. Certain of our Institu
tions are too sacred to be tampered
with and the opposition to the third
lrm apparently Is deep rooted In the
minds of all loyal cltisena. Mr. Roose
velt haa said he Is confident that In an
open primary he would be the choice
f the people. Ills overwhelming defeat
in North Iakota ahows very clearly
that he Is mistaken completely regard
ing the feeling of the people. Oregon
will give tiie same answer to hla
Claims aa North Dakota."
The Taft committee la In receipt of
letters from varloua parts of the
cat showing that the Taft spirit is
grost-lrtsr. I Wnldenberg. ef Canyon
'ity. Urent County, haa written. "I eiave
r.mv.-aed the Taft situation very care
fully and final that we here are all
'r ITestdent Taft for a second term.
There la only a sprinkling of opposi
tion." J. K. Starr, of Fossil. Wheeler Coun
Ir, says. "This Is a very strong Taft
county and the Indications are that he
will carry this county by a very strong
majority." A letter was received yes
terday from Joseph Moss, of Grants
Pass. Josephine County, saying In part:
"The situation here, as I see It. la very
favorable for President Taft. There Is
no qiiestlon In my mind but that this
county will go strong In favor of him
for the next President of the United
States."
