Man
Aleddlins Willi Legitimate Control
of Ciliitcu Over Business or
Projicrty Is Opposed.
Dan Kellaher, candidate for mayor
issued a statement yesterday in
which he said he intended to re
establish the 5-cent car fare, abolish
everything in the machinery of gov
ernment except the essentials, obtain
courteous and efficient telephone
Kervicc and oppose meddling: with the
legitimate control of a citizen over
his business or property, Mr. Kel
laher's statement, in full, follows:
I have decided to present myself
as a candidate for the office of mayor
of 1'ortland. In doing- so I deem it
proper to present, in the principal
outline, my conception of the needs
of the city in the administration of
this office and an impersonal crit
icism of what seems to me the short
comings and omissions of the present
reKime.
These, to my mind, are serious,
and would be, if permanent, intoler
able; they are not compensated by
the forensic charm of the present in
cumbent of the office. The city gov
ernment has hitherto consisted, be
hind the beaniinn person of the
mayor, of the impossible but irresist
ibl influence of the local power and
traction company and its correlated
interests.
Fare Contract Cited.
This condition manifested itself
with sufficient and painful clarity
when the contract for a 5-cent fare
between the city and its people on
the one side and the power company
and its foreign interest holders on
tho other, was abrogated with the
consent of the representatives of the
people in the city hall disguised by a
thin and transparent show of Jegal
resistance.
My purpose is, when elected, to
hold the company to its contract, the
city to its rights,- the public service
commission to a verified statement
of the positive and real cost of the
company's plant and the courts to a
constitutional interpretation of the
validity of contracts, and this con
tract in particular. 1 believe that
there is a way to reduce the fare to
the legal and contracted sum of 5
cents, and 1 shall seek that way.
Enemy of I'nds.
1 declare myself, broadly speaking,
the enemy of fads, of over-government,
of meddling- with the legiti
mate control of the citizen over his
business and his property. I stand
for retrenchment, defining for myself
and for this occasion this well-worn
phrase as meaning that I shall abol
ish everything in the machinery of
tho government except what is neces
sary for the observance of the law,
the security of property and the con
duct of the proper administrative and
fiscal activities of the city. On the
other hand, 1 shall endeavor to I
achieve economy by demanding
greater efficiency from the individual
servant of the city in whatever
capacity and wherever his service
seems to grade below that which is
demanded in private service of the
highest order, there I shall effect a
betterment or a change.
Next to the power and traction
company, the telephone monopoly is
the most oppressive in the city. It
collects a charge far in excess of the
cost - plus reasonable profit on the
value of its equipment, which is all
it is entitled to. as the use of the
streets was a gift to it by the people.
I shall make this concern render
courteous and efficient service on the
lais of compensation outlined above
if not prevented by the council or
the courts, and if prevented 1 shall
name the opposing forces so that the
people may act understandings in
their own interest thereafter.
Induxtry Expansion Aim.
The extensinn of our commerce and
the increase and development of our
industries shall have my best efforts.
The city's -business shall be my only
- occupation. Large investments have
been kept from Portland, both in in
dustries and building, in consequence
of oppressive, meddlesome and fad-,
dish regulations, or the threat of
such.
1 hold that business follows the
easiest road to success, that all at
tempts to strait-Jacket it or to as
sume the guardianship over its ac
tivities and movements which are not
demanded by sound principles of
safety and sanitation are detrimental
and should be omitted. Our recep
tion of new coming investors in com
merce and industry and our ordin
ances over their business should be
a. reason for their coming here, not
an obstacle in their way to our midst.
in the foregoing, as well as in all
other questions where the interest
of the city touches the special in
terest of private persons, or corpo
rate organizations, then also in the
securing of the city's rights, in the
matter of freights on foreign ship
ment, recognition of our harbor and
the growing importance of our port,
I am bent upon using my best ef
forts for the city.
Independent of Harden.
I shall be independent of all par
ties representing special interests,
serving as best 1 may 'the public in
this high office, leaning on no one.
but seeking the support of all and the
counsel of all for the common good.
For this my door shall be open in
the front only and the public's busi
ness transacted in a public manner.
A statement of this kind must of
necessity be brief. For some years
I seem to have perceived a growing
apathy toward public affairs among
my fellow citizens; abuses are con
doned and impositions tolerated which
in past years would have aroused the
citizenship to action. The above
named abuses are real, and there are
others to which I shall in time ad
dress myself.
I tender in this my candidacy, my
self, with every eftort that I am
capable of to rectify these and other
abuses. Kor this purpose and in this
spirit I ask for your support at the
polls. DAN KELLAHER.

When you wonder how the new Karo Maple gets
.its delicious tang of rich maple syrup remember
The makers of Karo Maple use annually over a
thousand tons of the purest and best flavored maple
sugar from the finest maple groves in Vermont and
Canada.
This is one reason why over five million cans of
Karo Maple were purchased by American house
wives last year.
This is a greater sale, by far, than any kind of maple
syrup offered.
The moderate price of Karo Maple is also an at
traction it costs less than any other syrup of ap
proaching quality and flavor.
Go to your grocer today and get a can of Karo
Maple, in the Green Can. Try it just once on
biscuits, waffles or pancakes or as a spread for
buttered bread or toast.
. Compare it for price and flavor with other
maple syrups. If you are not satisfied return
the balance of the can to your grocer, and get
your money back.

All Mothers Will Find Use
For This Laxative
Give Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin to a
constipated child and note its
quick recovery.
IN a growing family the subject of
thought with the parents is 'how to
keep the children healthy and happy,
and what to do when they become ill.
Most illnesses of childhood are the
symptoms of constipation, such as
headaches, coated tongues, flatulence,
dizziness, loss of appetite and sleep,
biliousness, etc.
You can surely feel safe in doing what
tens of thousands of others do with good
results, so give, according to the age of
the child, a small quantity of Dr. Cald
well's Syrup Pepsin. Eight million
bottles were bought last year at drug
stores. It is America's favorite family
remedy for constipation, indigestion
and similar ills, and is especially suitable
for children, women and old folks as
it is so mild and gentle in action.
There is no secret about Dr. Cald
well's Syrup Pepsin. It is a combination
of Egyptian Senna and other simple
laxative herbs with pepsin and pleasant
tasting aromatics. Druggists have sold it
for thirty years, and a sixty cent bottle
will last for months. Experienced
mothers are never without it in the
house.
TRYITFREE
Send me your name and ad
dress and I will send you a free
trial bottle of my Syrup Pepsin.
Address me Dr. W. B. Cald
