questions directed at his attitude on
various public measures. These cir
culars will be distributed at every

The Oregon State Board of Horticul
ture yesterday adopted resolutions op
posing the eight-hour bill on the state

regular county committee at a meet
ing in Hillsboro on Saturday after
noon. Ex-Governor T. T. Geer, of Port

that I must defeat Dr. Withycombe.
But I am not yet willing to admit that
I will not defeat Withycombe."
So said W. S. U'Ren, independent
candidate for Governor, yesterday,
shortly after addressing the depart
ment of the Oregon Civic League on
revenue and taxation on the proposed
$1500 exemption law.
"Normally the odds are two to one
against a Democrat running for Gov
ernor in Oregon. Dr. Smith's only
chance to win would have been a
split in the Republican party over
some vital issue, such as the assembly
issue four years ago. He could have
entertained some hope if he had the
solid backing of the radical faction.
Governor West in his campaign for
election certainly profited immeasur
ably by the split in the Republican
party and he got many of the radical
votes.
"But this year there appears to be
no split in the Republican party and I
am going to get the radical -vote. For
those reasons I can't see where Dr.
Smith- has any chance of election."
As the big crowd stood in Alder
street yesterday afternoon watching
the baseball scoreboard, thousands of
white cards fluttered down from the
third floor of . the Selling building.
The men reached out for them and soon
the modest election announcements of
R. A. Booth, Republican nominee for
the.Uited States Senate, were in the
hands of thousands of men.
The idea of distributing the cards in
this novel manner originated in the
offices of the- Republican Women
Election Officials at 301 Selling build
ing, and was carried out by Mrs. Alice
R. . Nugent, in charge of the offices,
and Miss Ruth Gilbert, of the Repub
lican county headquarters.
C. M. Hurlburt, who recently was re
pudiated by the Republican County
Committee as a candidate for the
Legislature from the Multnomah
Clackamas joint district, has gone to
Oklahoma, and, it is understood, will
not return to Oregon for several
months. Many Republican voters will
support Koscoe P. Hurst, the Demo
cratic nominee for the office.
C. M. Hurlburt, it is pointed out. is
not related to Thomas M. Hurlburt, Re
publican nominee for Sheriff.
W. S. U'Ren. independent candidate
for Governor, spoke for the enactment
of the $1500 exemption law before the
department of revenue and taxation of
the Oregon Civic League at the Hazel
wood yesterday noon.
He contended that if it was fair to
exempt mortgages, diamonds and
jewelry from taxation, that it was fair
to exempt the house on which the
mortgage lay and to exempt tools, im
plements and livestock at least up to
$1500. He held that it would encour
age the little homemaker.
In rebuttal, Arthur M. Churchill de
clared that the $1500 exemption law
did not conform to any principle of
taxation aside from the one to get all
exemptions possible.
"There is absolutely no precedent
for this proposed law," he said. "It
simply means putting single tax under
another name. Why not exempt a man
from paying for his groceries unless
he has a bill in excess of $300 or ex
empt him from paying water rent un
less it runs over a certain figure? This
law would be 'even more discrim
inatory than the single tax.
"It would work a severe hardship
on the tenants, the owners of vacant
lots, the owners of residence property
that is about to be transformed Into
business property and the consumers
who will be forced to bear indirectly
the burdens of excessive rents." -
A number of Democratic women
have arranged to hold a meeting in
the main assembly hall of the Public
Library building on Wednesday even
ing. October 21. A number of candi
dates on the state and county ticket
will speak.
The Hanley-for-Senator Club will
meet at the Public Library on Friday
evening. Miss Anne Shannon Monroe
and others will speak.

A well-known Ohio woman, whose

gladly told what she used, but request

why he quit using tobacco. She said:
"The recipe is Inexpensive and can be

Yesterday we bought
outright and had turned
over, to us fey Mr.
Lucore the balance of
altogether forty-four
of the costliest Pianos
in the Soule Bros.'
Failure Sale
TWO GREAT SALES NOW IN ONE
The most important event in West
ern piano merchandising, the Manu
facturers' Emergency Surplus Sale,
merged with the Soule Bros'. Failure
Sale.
Soule Bros., old-t -tablished musical
instrument merchants. their stock.
after authority and direct order of
court, was taken over by C E. Lucore.
the wholesale piano man and repre
sentative or some or tne creditor man
ufacturers. Nearly all the inexpensive
pianos were quickly sold, at 388 Mor
rison, but the more costly kinds were
left on hand. There was no time to
lose. A quick turn was necessary and
we were able to get them in one lump,
so that we can sell them for almost
what they sold their medium and
cheaper priced pianos for. for we de
clined to take over any but the finest
instruments in the sale. The better
makes and higher grade pianos, the
really much-to-be-desired Instruments,
now on sale at Ellers Mustc House,
started yesterday morning.
In these two great sales at Ellers
Music House will be found pianos for
a great deal less than what the manu
facturers expected to get for same
when they billed them to their agents.
Some of them. oldest established
makes, time honored, time tried names,
are included in this great sacrifice
sale now, and positive assurance that
every instrument is reliable, depend
able, price worthy, and accompanied
by our positive guarantee as to qual
ity and service, and accompanied by
our exchange agreement and money
back guarantee.
OUR PROPOSITION NOW MAKES
THE BUYING OF SOULE BROS.'
FAILURE PIANOS THOROUGHLY
SAUK.
For several weeks,'' while the Soule
Bros." failure sale was in force, we
would hear customers ' say, "I believe
they have real bargains up there at
Soule Bros." failure sale, but if the
piano should not turn . out what it
should be, to whom can we look to
make the piano right?" Now that dif
ficulty has all been done away with,
for with the Eilers guarantee, and a
record of many years' fair dealing and
the high standing of the house, every
pianoless home can now feel sure
that the piano will be found in every
way satisfactory. For Eilers Music
House Is the money back institution.
We also issue an exchange agree
ment so that for any reason, at any
time within -two years, a customer can
exchange for another piano at the big
piano hcjuse, and all the money paid
will apply on the instrument selected.
EILERS MUSIC HOUSE HAS ALWAYS
BEEN NOTED FOR SELLING THE
BEST AN I HIGHEST-GRADE
PIANOS MANUFACTURED.
Their enormous business enables them
to sell a piano of a higher grade for
much less money than the old-time
method dealers ask. Seventy-two per
cent of all the pianos shipped to the
Coast are sold by the Eilers houses.
This leaves only a very few for all the
other dealers combined to sell. This
fact itself should have consideration;
any thinking business man or woman
knows that a large quantity of goods
can be marketed for less per article
than can a small number. Thinking
people know that in buying in large
quantities each article can be purchased
for less. Furthermore our Eilers Music
For Example We Quote:

And many others, new or used, at equally low prices, some of them taken

ing this great Manufacturers' Emergency and Surplus Sale.
Mouse guarantee is thoroughly depend
able and trustworthy in every way.
It Is the only lar&e home institution of
its kind, and many years of successful
piano distribution has put it in the
lead of all the great National institu
tions. Whenever the opportunity pre
sents Eilers Music House is always
ready and anxious to arrange excep
tional values, and offers them to buy
ers at the lowest possible price con
sistent with quality.
Everyone knows that the export
business has practically been at a
standstill; every manufacturer, espe
cially of musical Instruments, has been
at his wits' end to know what to do
with his surplus stock, that is why the
manufacturers' representatives, Ells
worth, Barnes and Davey and Lucore,
are now in charge of this greatest of
all - Portland piano sales. Hemember.
these pianos are all new, guaranteed.
ALSO INCUDED IX THIS SALE.
The famous Duotonal (Double Sound
board Piano), also the Eilers De Luxe
Player Piano are included in this great
sale which is now being conducted by
the manufacturers under an agreement
that the Eilers Mustc House will buy
three pianos every time the manufac
turers' representatives sell two. How
ever, a sale like this can never hap
pen again, for the same conditions will
never again exist.
Never Were the Old Reliable Makes oC
Pianos Offered at the Low Price
Now Marked on Every
Instrument
Never since the establishment of the
Ellers Music House many years ago
have' prices been made so low and
terms so easy. Think of buying the
Chickering, America's oldest and best;
the Sohmer, pr'de of New York; the in
strument you find in the most exclu
sive circles of that great city; the
Kimball, the piano that today enjoys
having received the indorsement of
more of the great artists and musici
ans than all other makes combined, and
we could go on and enumerate many
other makes included in this emerg
ency sale. However, for the future pro
tection of smaller dealers who must
secure the established retail prices, plus
