I am only a little boy, perhaps I can not tell as good a reason as Z can in twenty years from now. But for my argument I would say always borne first; then. If you have any to spare, give It to your neighbor. What we have used of the Oregon food we have found as good as any other. My mother always uses Otter brand clams, of course, they ar.e the best. They are always good; but when we went to the beach this Summer we took 'a three pound can of the Golden West coffee and a sack of the. Olympic flour and a dozen packages tff Albers" "Peacock" buckwheat flour. We thought that we had made a fine selection. Our food never tasted better. If we didn't use the foods that are made here at home, we cannot expect people out of the state to use these, for how would they know about them If we didn't each family use them and tell how pure the foods are, how nice Is the cloth and how fine the lumber? Then, If Oregon people would be loyal to their own manufactures the Willamette and Co lumbia rivers would be lined with mills and factories clear to the sea, and good old Oregon In the lead among the states of the United States, for we have the climate and the soil, the rivers and the brains. . JOHN KENNY. 691 Marshall street. SECOND PRIZE, $5. Last Monday I read about your essay contest, and when I got to school I asked teacher why It was that "Ore gon people should do all their buying from Oregon manufacturers, everything? else being equal." She said she couldn't take time to tell me during school hours, but if I would wait in the even ing she would talk about it. Here are some of the things I learned. Every time you buy anything that is made in Oregon you help yourself and other people, because the money stays right at home. Oregon manufactories must be sup ported, because, if they are not, the farmers won't have any place to sell their raw products. If we keep buying things made at home there will get to be such a good market here that other manufactories will be built, and pretty soon we won't have to ship hardly anything here from the East. If everybody would buy Oregon goods there would be so much .work to do that nobodV would be out of a Job. When I got home I told mamma what the teacher said, and asked her why we didn't buy more things made at home. She said it was easy to be care less about this, but that she thought the teacher was right, and that she would try to remember to buy Oregon goods after this whenever she could. GLADYS BECKMAK. 181 East Twenty-sixth street. THIRD PRIZE, $2. I am just a little girl, but I know why we ought to buy things that are made In Oregon. It's because the peo ple who make them are our friends, or. if they aren't our friends, at least they live right here near us. So, why shouldn't we help them instead of help ing people who liVe way off somewhere whom we never did see and never will. And then, the people that own these factories spend their money right here. So If we do, too. then the money stays here and everybody can have bet ter things to eat, and go to the theater oftener, and they can buy more nice dresses for their children. And then these manufacturers all have to pay taxes so that the city can pave more streets, and have more electric lights, and have more swimming pools and playgrounds In the parks. If I get married and have a home of my own when I get older I'm going to remember all this, and everything I buy will be made in Oregon. By that time Portland will be such a big city that there won't be anything we want that Isn't made hero. MISS MYRTLE MUTtSON. Rainier, Oregon. stupendous opportunity. It Is the privilege of Oregonlans to promote and support any attempt to transform these Immense resources into a state asset. By buying from Oregon manufacturers, for instance: Albers Bros., who use great quantity of grain grown In Ore gon, would, for one thing, eliminate freight expense for shipping of prod ucts from other states. Another thing, home Industry would give plenty of work to men residing here. The state would become richer, more thickly populated and more prosperous. Port land, with the Columbia and Willam ette as great natural transportation highways, would become the metropolis of the West. HOWARD A. DARK. 269 East Thirty-second Btreet. FIFTH PRIZE. $1. FOURTH PRIZE. Oregonlans should support Oregon manufacturing for many reasons. The great quantity of raw material, such as timber, minerals, coal and iron only await to be manufactured into the fin ished article. The disposal of this crude material, combined with accessi bility to unlimited water power offers a Everyone should buy Oregon prod ucts, because money spent for home products comes back in wages, in creased business, enlarged manufactur ing plants and new Industries. We carry out this idea in our family. When we come home hungry from school we hurry to get a piece of mother's good bread, made from "Olym pic" flour, and a glass of "Portland Pure Milk." It tastes so good it makes me wish I were a camel with more than one stomach to fill. We rarely eat meat for supper, but "Otter clams" with "Haradon's crackers" often take its place. These and s light salad, dressed with "Diamond W" dressing, make a good meal. What tastes better on a cold morning than crisp "Columbia Brand" bacon, or hot griddle cakes made from "Albers" Peacock buckwheat flour," spread with "Damascus" butter and accompanied, for the older folks, byMelicious "Gold en West" coffee. Even washday loses some of Its ter rors, because we use "Van Hoeter's Bleaching Soap," and it saves half the work. Our floors are swept with "Zan" brooms, and the old saying, "a new broom sweeps clean" would apply as well to an old one, provided it was a "Zan." Take my advice, patronize home products only.

(Special.) At tha last meeting of the County Fair Association a loan of $1200 was se cured to pay off the deficit of 7639 and take up outstanding warrants. - All warrants will now be paid at the First State Bank of Gresham. H. A. Lewis, J. J. Johnson. A. F. Miller and L. M. Lepper were appoint ed a special committee to petition the County Commissioners for an appro priation of $5000 for premiums for the fair of 1914. It was said that sum would be uvailabj for that year. A. F. Millar, K. S. Jenne and E. L. Thorpe were appointed to expert the books of the secretary and treasurer and report at the stockholders' meeting, which will be held December 1. President Lewis will call a special meeting of the Board of directors for December 1, at the same time with the stockholders. A mass meeting will be held here next Tuesday night In the City Hall to nominate candidates for members of the City Council for three years and a City Marshal, to be elected at the special election December 2. Regis tration books will be open with D. M. Roberts. Everyone must register, re gardless of previous registration. The Council has passed an ordinance prohibiting dancing after 12 o'clock Saturday nights. Donglas Tax Increases. ROSEBURG, Or, Nov. 9. (Special.) According to an announcement made by the County Court here .today, the state tax levy for the year 1914, based on the valuations of 1913, will be four times as much as previously. Last year the Court levied a state tax of one and one-fourth mills, from which was derived $41,000. This year the Douglas County proportion of the state taxis $160,000. A four or five-mill tax will be necessary, according? to the Court SALOON MEN MAY FIGHT SALEM ELECTION" IS DECLARED IRREGULAR. City's Revenue Reduced 912.0O0 Year and Llqnor Dealers Lose Laree Amounts. x SALEM. Or, Nov. 9. (Special;) Al though definite procedure has not been decided upon, It virtually Is assured that the liquor interests of Salem will fight the closing of the saloons as de creed, by a majority of almost 600 at the special election Tuesday. Attor neys for the liquor element are mak ing an Investigation of the law and say some action probably will be taken this week when the County Court meets to canvass the vote. The law provides that the court shall Issue an order setting the date when th saloons shall T3e closed. It is believed that the saloon men will be given at least one month to wind, up their busi ness affairs, and. they may be allowed to continue In business until the first of next year. All licenses will expire December 1 and It Is expected, the Council will be asked to extend them one month. The saloons paid the city more than $12,000 annually for licenses and one of the first things the cltv authorities will do after they are closed will be to de vise a plan of raising a similar amount through other sources. It Is declared by the liquor interests that the petition calling the special election was Irregular in that many signatures were fraudulent and that the holding of the local option election on the same day of the special refer endum election was illegal. However, the anti-saloon element has a majority in the City Council, and even should the saloon men win in the courts they will be 'fought by the Council. One liquor dealer said today the voting of the city "dry" would cost him $40, 000, and the others say they will lose anywhere from $5000 to $10,000. Frank Collins, who, outside of the Marion Ho tel, has the finest bar in the city, says his loss will be at least $10,000. He suffered a similar loss, he says, when Albany voted "dry," moving from that city hero. " S WEST ORDERS PROBE NEWTOnrS ELECTION TARGET OF AN INVESTIGATION. Violation of Corrupt Practices Act In Local Option Choice Alleged in Circular. SALEM. Or, Nov. 9. (Special.) Governor West has instructed J. F. Stewart. District Attorney, to make an Investigation of an alleged viola tion of the corrupt practices act In Newport in connection with the recent election there oc local option. The Governor's letter to Mr. Stewart Is as follows: "I am enclosing you nerewlth copy of a circular addressed to the voters of Newport, signed by six residents there of and circulated throughout the said city during the recent election, in which among others the following statement appears: '"We are reliably informed, though we are not at liberty to name our in formant, that our City Council has in tentionally deferred the levying of a city tax for next year until the result of this election has been declared, and that the committee appointed to report upon such matter will, if the town votes "wet," recommend a 5-mill levy, as last year, but if it goes "dry" a 10-mill tax will be necessary. In view of this con templated action by our Council, should not every taxpayer hesitate before placing another burden on his already overloaded shoulders? "I wish to call your attention to sec tion 3515 of L. O. L., which provides: " 'Any ' person shall be guilty of a corrupt practice within the meaning of this act if he is guilty of undue in fluence with intent to induce an elector to vote for or to refrain from voting for any measure submitted to the peo ple at any election.' "The penalty for violation of this law is Imprisonment In the County Jail for not more than one year or by a fine of not more than $5000, or by both fine and Imprisonment." West Issnes Requisition.
