Seba EMrldge Declares That Every
Person Able and Willing to Labor
Should Have Place or Be Pro
vided; With Income.
NEW YORK. May 1. The smallest
Income upon wmui ne arse v in v-
Snirmari's family can live in Hew York in
decency has been estimated at J800. Yet
00,000 families tn the city live on In
comes less than that amount. This
mvans that 100,000 families are under
fed, overcrowded. r insufficiently
clothed, or all these things put together,
wrttet Seba Eldridge. a Brooklyn social
voider, in an- article on "The Standard
of Ltvltur tn New York.
"Tit back j these statements there
are t. following facts disclosed In a
recenti investigation of the standard ol
livine to New York. Of 200 families
Btudied' in. 1903-4-5, 11 received incomes
of $200 to J-400; 16. Incomes of J400 to
S500: 16i 500 to IBOO: , oo to sivu;
27. $700 to S80; 25. $800 to $900; 19,
$900 to tlOOO: 28, 100ft to J1200; 29,
S1S00 or over. These families were
fairly representatives of workingmen's
families in the city generally. Twenty
one and fivto-tentha per cent, more than
one-fifth. ved on incomes less than
$600: 3S per" cent, more than one-third,
on incomes lfcsa than J700; 45.5 per cent.
practically tne-bal, on Incomes less
than $800. How It was estimated that
an income of 720 a year was necessary
to support a'v family in decency, and
that if provision was to- be made for
the rainv day. suo to suo was neces
eary. Later Investigators have shown
that the estimates were certainly not
too high. .

"The standard or manner of living Is
of course affected by mans things be
sides income. The most itoportant of
these other factors Is the coait of living,
a high-sounding term for th prices w
have to pay for the thingV we buy.
Prices In New York, as elsewhere, hav
soared higher and higher the. past few
years. Since 1905, the pric of food
has advanced at least 25 per cent, and
other things probably In t.e same
ratio. Wages have not Increased at th
same rate. Other things affecting ou
standard of living are the kind t"f work
we do. the length of onr working day,
and our surroundings while at work
the kind of houses or apartments we
live in; the amusements and patatlmes
we engage in; the people we associate
with, and the nurture and heredity -with
which we are endowed. The wageei or
Incomes we receive and the prices we
pay, however, determine our manlier
of living more than all other thiiigs
put together. What can be done to
improve the situation, in addition "to
the many departments of social refortn
work already familiar?
Greater Production U r Red.
"More wealth can be produced and
made available for distribution as
wages, profits and rents. Many econo
mists hold that several times as much
wealth as is, produced at present could
be produced through the better or
ganization of industry. Elements in
this better organization would be the
removal of trade restrictions between
countries, the distribution of labor
where labor is needed, the vocational
guidance and training of boys and
girls, the scientific management of in
dustries, the inducement to service of
those not forced by economic neces
sity to labor. '
"However greatly we Improve recrea
tional, labor, and housing conditions;
however well we are trained for life
and work; however effectually we reg
ulate prices; however great our pro
duction of wealth the fact remains
that We all need Incomes for the neces
sities of life we have to procure for
ourselves. Every man and every wo
man who Is willing" to work and able
to work should be provided with
work, and should receive for this
WITH a bis rally at the Central
Library tonight and a series of
open air rallies at various points in
Portland and through the county on
Thursday night, the Lincoln Republican
Club will close its ante-primary cam- ,
paign.
The Library meeting tomorrow night
will be for all candidates for Repub
lican nominations at the primary. Each
will have a few minutes in which to
show himself and make a few remarks.
The speakers probably will be limited
to two or three-minutes talks.
The Thursday night meetings will
be at least five in number and perhaps
more. Candidates will go from one
rally point to another in automobiles.
The places already determined on for
meetings are:
Corner of Grand avenue and East
Morrison street.
Corner of Third and Burnslde streets.
St. Johns.
Piedmont. .
Lents and bossibly at Arleta, also.
Though this will wind up 'the Lin
coln Republican Club's activity In the
primary, the organization is making
plans for conducting an equally vig
orous campaign beiore tne general
election.
Grant B. Dimlck. of Oregon City,
candidate or the Republican nomina
tion for Governor, campaigned In Yam
hill County Monday. He spoke at a
mass meeting in McMinnville last night.
John Manning, candidate for the
Democratic nomination for Governor,
has ended his out-of-town campaign
ing. He expresses satisfaction with
the prospects.
If I come to Multnomah County less
than 2000 votes behind I will surely be
nominated," asserted Mr. Manning yes
terday. "I figure that I will not be far,
if any, behind in the state, with this
county excluded. I will have a ma
jority in Marion. Carry, Columbia,
Washington and Coos counties, as .well
as In Multnomah. I expect to have
plurality in Klamath, Jackson, Jose
phine and Douglas.
In, Lane, the bulk of the vote will
be divided between Dr. Smith and me.
and this will also be the case in Clack
amas and Polk. In Eastern Oregon the
total vote will not exceed 6000, and,
while I will be third in that territory
Dr. Smith and Judge Bennett will have
an. almost equal vote, and It will. not
be far in excess of the one I will get.
I am content to abide by the result of
Friday's election on my present show
ing."
The appearance of a third anonymous
ticket, bearing the indorsement of
full list of candidates before the Re
publican primary, caused a little flurry
In political circles Monday. It was
printed on a small card and gave the
name neither of sponsor nor printer.
It had practically "the same list of can
didates as the so-called "Voters' Pro
tective League" ticket. There Is much
mystery about the origin of the new
ticket, as of the others. The candidates
who have been selected for "Indorse
ment generally profess entire igno
ranee. The respective tickets are un
doubtedly the work of a very few In
dividuals, who are pursuing their own
ends and who have not consulted the
principal candidates in any way.
One of the. largest electionbets of
the primary campaign was recorded-
Monday, when Dave - Anderson, of
Anderson Bros.' livery -stable, bet $1000
against $75 that Dr. Sam C. Slocum,
Incumbent, would get the Republican
nomination for Coroner against the
field. Another bet of $100 even was
that Slocum would get more voteB than
the other three candidates together.
Joe Murphy bet $10 that Dr. Slocum
judicial departments and that each
power is supreme within Itself.
"Any decision of the Supreme Court
of the state Is final," he said, "subject
only to a review by the Supreme Court
of the United States on constitutional
questions. The Legislature has a right
to enact any law in its discretion that
Is. any law not unconstitutional. Like
wise,' the authority of the Governor is
supreme within that branch.
"For these reasons, it is the duty of
all citizens to select good, clean, com
petent men as Judges of the Supreme
Court; also to select men of known
standing and integrity as members of
the Legislature, and a man as Governor
who will revere and respect the law
and carry out the intent of the con
stitution.
Mr. Johns at the Transportation Club
meeting said that he had come to Ore

arms, and contrasted tne difference
between modes of travel in Oregon In
1866 and 1914.
As a small boy," he continued.

Now it can- be made in five hours."
Miss Lida M. O'Bryon. candidate for
the Republican nomination for Judge of
the District Court, Department No. 3,
was a speaker last night at a meeting
of Republican women in the Central
Library last night. She will speak
there again tomorrow night at a gen

candidates under the auspices of the

platform, publlsned in THE TIMES to

"The Courier can heartily indorse the
planks in judge Dimick s piatiorm op
rjoslnsf tne extravaerant legislative an
propriations and the growinar lists of
salaried boards and commissions. These
are becoming a dead weight on taxpay
ers and the people are not going to
stand for them. Already there are pe
titions Deing preparea to aooiisn an
throw out- these useless boards an
commissions, and If once they get on
the ballot there will be less taxation
in Oregon. -Oregon City Courier.

Candidate for Nomination for
Attorney General
William P. Lord announces bis can
didacy for this office on a definite
platform, on something that means
something to the people of the state.
Among other things, he pledges himself
to enforce the public rights in water
fronts and tldelands; to prosecute suits,
to regain vast tracts of publio land,
wrested from the people and to pro
tect the rights of settlers on arid lands.
Mr. Lord further pledges himself to
keep the office open at all times to
the people and legislators alike, to fur
nish every assistance in formulating
legislation forthe reduction of taxa
tion and the abolition of worthless
commissions and offices.
No credit is due to an officer who
has done his duty, whether for one
year or for 18 years. He was paid to
do his duty, and if he failed to enforce
the laws he is derelict in his duty.
What the people require , of a candi
date is a definite policy in the main
tenance of the office, and Mr. Lord is
a candidate who baa made pledges to
the people, which he will unswervingly
fulfill.
