AVQX TELEPHOXE CASES.
CHICAGO. Oct. SI. The eoclalist
party will come back at Tuesday's
election. Otto Branstetter, campaign
manager and national secretary of
the party, declared today..
He predicted the re-election of
Victor Berger to congress as well as
the re-election of the five ousted New
York asaemblymen and estimated the
total presidential vote at 3.000,000.
Campaign Is Reviewed.
Reviewing the socialist campaign,
he said:
"After three years of persecution
by the government and of lawless
terrorization, sanctioned and encour
aged by the recognized leaders and
the press of both the democratic and
the republican parties, the socialist
party entered this campaign with our
presidential candidate in prison, the
most of. our papers suppressed, our
organization entirely destroyed in
many states, with a bankrupt treas
ury and heavily in debt.
"Despite- these handicaps, the party
has made one of the most successful
campaigns in its history and the vote
on November 2 will show that we
have come back and come back
strong. ,g
, Reports Indicate Strength.
""Reports from all sections indicate
a wonderful sentiment for socialism
and a tremendously increased vote
for our party candidates.
"A tremendously increased vote
with the possibility of the election
of a large number of socialist candi
dates is a certainty in Oklahoma and
Nevada. The tripll alliance in the
state of Washington and the mem
bers of the non-partisan league in
North Dakota, Minnesota and Neb
raska will cast a heavy vote for Debs
and Stedman and the socialist vote
in the solid south will be treble what
it ever was before."
DKYS EXPRESS COXFIDEXCE
Randall of California One Repre
sentative Predicted to Win.
CHICAGO, Oct. 31.-" Charles H. Ran
dall of California, the only prohibi
tion representative in congress, will
be re-elected, and Ella Boolea of New
York, running against Senator Wads
worth for the United States senate on
the prohibition ticket, has a fighting
chance, so Virgil G. Hlnshaw, chair
man of the prohibition national com
mittee, declared here today.
Reviewing the place and prospects
of the party in this campaign, the
prohibition chairman in his pre-election
statement said:
"Hundrods of thousands of people
have been reached with our propa
ganda. Thousands of women now en
franchised have ordered literature
and platforms from prohibition head
quarters. "Charles R. Randall of California,
who has the support of all dry or
ganizations, will' be re-elected. Ella
Boolea running for the United States
senate against Wads worth in New
York, has a fighting chance for vic
tory. Her candidacy, backed by all
the drys, is being watched with great
interest.
"Margaret Wintringer, who has the
support of all drys and many women's
clubs and other organizations, is run
ning against William E. Mason, con-gressman-at-large
in Illinois. Other
campaigns of interest waged or party
prohibitionists are: Edwards of Cal
ifornia, running for the United States
senate against two wet candidates,
he having the support of all the drys;
Leah Cobb Marion of Pennsylvania is
running for the senate against Pen
rose; Mrs. Flora Diefenderfer of
Pennsylvania, running for representa
tive in congress; Dr. Esther Pohl
Lovejoy of Portland, Or., running for
congress against C. N. McArthur;
R. H. Clark of Lacrosse, Wis., dis
trict, is running for representative in
congress, and others.
"The prohibition party was a vital
factor in securing war prohibition
and ratification. It will be a vital
factor in the November election, with
its language of protest as against the
wobbling attitude of both old party
candidates."

partment under Mayor Baker has
failed to push to a decision cases in
connection with the telephone rate
controversy, has declared every case
mentioned was either won by the city
or became obsolete before being tried.
The purposes, he said, were won by
the tity without having to continue
the case's before the courts.
."Mr. Kellaner insinuates," said Mr.
Tomlinson, "that two eases concern
ing telephone rates, started by the
city, were allowed to lapse and lie
dormant. The fact is that both cases
were prosecuted until the purposes
for which- they were started were
fully accomplished. The first case
was to wipe out the threatened Bur
leson rates and they were wiped out.
The second case was to nullify the
public service commission's rate of
May 1, 1919, and this case was ren
dered obsolete and unnecessary by
subsequent action by the postmaster
general and the adoption of an en
tirely new rate by the public service
commission. Mr. Kellaher also, by in
nuendo, leaves the impression that
Seattle got some relief from high
rates whj,ch Portland did not, whereas
the exact 'opposite is true. Seattle
paid the Burleson rates while Port
land successfully resisted them..'
"Mr. Kellaher Is merely using a
ridiculous subterfuge in an effort to
convince the public that everything
possible has not been done to stop
telephone rate increases, when as a
matter of fact, nothing within the
power of the mayor pr city council
has been left undone."

Do we live in the age of the golden rule, or don't we?
How would you like to have some sentimental theorist go into your community and pick on
your richest possession your cranberry marshes, berry fields, hop fields, orchard lands and
propose to hand them over to the Federal Government for a playground for wild life, just because
you were so isolated it was easy to take it away from you?
Haven't we had just about enough withdrawals of our natural resources from Oregon?
Theorists who never did any pioneering in their lives have conceived the impractical idea of presenting Mal
heur Lake, in the very heart of one of Oregon's greatest valleys, to the Federal government for a bird refuge.
We have had land troubles, water troubles, settler troubles, cowboy troubles, gun men, coyotes, rabbits,
crickets and grasshoppers, and now comes along the sentimental theorist, and he's the worst of all!
Guess we people over in Harney have got some rights in this country!
Bill number 317 X robs the school funds of thousands of dollars.
It robs ranchers of hundreds of homes on the soil.
It robs Central Oregon of a rich producing area.
It robs the tax rolls. This is not an emergency measure; if in doubt, vote no.
Oregon's engineers are against it! The Kiwanis Society is against it! Oregon's Attorney

In the circuit court of the state of Oregon for Multnomah,
county. City of Portland vs. Public Service Commission of Ore
gon, G-8297. Suit filed July 14, 1919.
Sought to vacate and set aside an order of the Public Service
Commission Increasing telephone rates in the city of Portland
and praying for restraining order on the ground that the com
mission had no jurisdiction over property under government
control.
Summons July 15, 1919.
General demurrer July 22, 1919.
No further action.
In an identical case brought In the state of Washington by
the cities of Seattle and Tacoma against the "Washington State
Public Service Commission, the supreme court of the state of
Washington decreed: .
"The Judgment of the superior court affirming the orders of
the State Public Service Commission of February 13 and 20
1919, is reversed and the orders themselves are annulled and
Bet aside." State ex rel. cities of Seattle and Tacoma vs. Public
Service Commission et al. No. 15607. Supreme Court of Wash
ington, March 3. 1920 (1S8 Pac. 7).
The failure to prosecute these suits by Mayor Baker's legal department was a most flagrant vio
lation of trust. Mr. Baker makes no pretense of explanation. He cannot explain. The fact of
betrayal of the people's interest into the hands of the Telephone Trust is proven by the foregoing
court record. The people of this city are overcharged $50,000 per month by the Telephone Trust.
