14 THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN, PORTLAND, OCTOBER 22, 1923 1 ELD III FOR U. S. PRESIDENT Colonel Bush Thinks Candi date Made Mistake. POPULARITY IS WONDER TYPICAL EXHIBIT SIMILAR TO THOSE THAT WILL BE SEEN AT OREGON HEALTH EXPO SITION OPENING THURSDAY. Demand for Buttons Is So Keen That Supply Has Run Out; More Are Coming. t . ' "I was just telling Andy Gump tnat he has made the mistake of his ' life running for congress. He should lie a candidate for president ot the 'United States. I never saw any other office hunter so popular," said Colonel Bush, prominent citizen and taxpayer pf Bull Run. at the Gump-tor-Congress headquarters. "The way Gump is running he makes a prairie fire look like a rheumatic cripple on a hike. But It's all a mistake," and the colonel sighed, as he reached for another of Mr. Gump's campaign cigars, im- ' ported from Manila. "With all this publicity and his bajik account. Andy should have aspired to something greater. Why, the whole country has gone crazy about him and he could be elected president just as easy as he can be elected to con gresB. Isn't it the truth? I'll tell the world! Buttons Are Demanded. "Look at that mall," Indicated Colonel Bush to a pile mountain high, "it comes from almost every town in Oregon and many in Cali fornia. Washington, Idaho and Mon tana. Most of 'em contain requests for buttons. We're out, but a new supply has been ordered. Some of the letter writers have tried to com pel Andy to commit himself on vital issues, but they haven't got him in a corner yet. The boy's a wonder. Did you see how he handled the tariff? "Funny thing" and the colonel grinned, '"Gump is the only candi date that everyone is willing to speak unreservedly about. No con troversy when he is discussed. Gump's life is an open book; he is 100 per cent for the people and wears no man's collar. That's the reason. T. Paer Lined lp. "Anderson, the timberman, just got back from Douglas, Coos and Curry counties, and said Gump is sweeping everything, even the pre cinct at the mouth of Rock creek. Little old T. Paer dropped in this afternoon and confidentially in formed me that he and ma are for Gump. I'm trying to have Senators McNary and Stanfield put in a good word for Andy when they take the stump next week. "It's a cinch that Gump has the vote of the poets. Every versifier is working for him and sending samples. This is the most regret table phase of the campaign. Run through those letters and verses if you think I'm spoofing," concluded Colonel Bush. Samples Are Quoted i Here are samples of the colonel's Mail: HOOD EIVEH, Or. (Mr. Andrew Gump.) A large number of the people In our beautiful little city are with you and if you care to use aome of your. campaign fund for a gooa purpose jubi send me your checks for 100 bucks and I can assure you f one vote per buck. I will donate my personal services. Your well wisher. EDWIN SAHGENT. TILLAMOOK, Or. (Colonel Bush.) Sir: If Andy goes to congress the trust and big money will soon know his fail ing see how he fell for the women, who sold him a cushion and when a bill cornea up that these people are inter ested In they will send a pretty girl lobbyist and where are the people go ing to get off? Poor Min, sne can't puu his hair for he hasn't got any. Tours, B. W. PETTY. TILLAMOOK. Colonel Bush: If you'll pend Andy over here we'll turn the cows out earlv and decorate the barn and we'll guarantee him applause If he will nod his head In time whenever he says anything about reducing taxes. Yours, CHEESE. Apples Are Offered. PARKDALE. Or. Honorable Bush: Sorry we can't follow the example of the Lithia Angel and send you a hand some check, but we can send a few hundred boxes of the best apples grown In the west. A Gravenstein Instead of a cigar that would win the women. If you want the apples, send a check. Yours until election, 100 per cent for Andy. PORTLAND. Colonel Bush. Dear Sir I have heard that Andy Gump is a joke. but the common people are well nigh absolutely unanimous In hlB support. Slander may cover this man, but mod esty and worth cannot be kept down. Down with the classes and up with the masses. Cordially yours. B. J. H. CITY. To Andy: You're putting up a great big bolter about being mis ana doing thar. We know that you "wear no man's collar," but say, where did you get that hat? ANXIOUS VOTER. Support Is Pledged. SKAMOKAWA, Wash. : To Colonel Bush. We've a candidate, we're proud to relate We'll shout his name from the steeple. 'Tis Andy Gump who a taken the etump, lop pel cent for the people. He's bright as a dollar, weara no man's collar; goes all unhampered and free. To gain man's vote, if there's dust in his throat. he has "pre-war" . for such fellows as me. Respectfully yours, SKAM OK. CITY. Colonel Bush: Gump professes to be for all the people. Now if he will pledge himself to do his best to get pensions for all the other office-seekers who want soft jobs, he will win out This is the opinion of the taxpayers. Verj truly, JS. M. R. SALEM. Colonel Bush D ear Sir: Andy is making a great hit here. This town is fairly bughouse over him. j Picture Posted Up. His noble countenance greets you at every turn. He's making a house-to-liouse canvass now. I plucked the fol lowing off our front door, where he had considerately nailed it: "An analyzing ain't discreet; Let me tear your tax receipt. If the moon is up too high Let me fix it in the sky. Can't I awing Uie nasty ax Wlthftut touching any facts? When I milk the public teat Watch me hide behind a sheet. Did it once, I'll confess, When they caught me In a mess. Wouldn't mankind be the pish If I lose my grand ambish? Tell me what is wanted, dears. And I'll wiggle mouth and ears? I am nature's grandest flopper; Put your hobby in my hopper And I'll sanctify with tears Anything from dry to beers; Anything you think or feel, With my generalizing spiel. 1 Step up lively, now s the time. Whisper- it and hear me chime. Yes. I've got a lot to tote Just because X want the vote. But the service I will render If I don't bust my suspender! So I go about just raving i (And the barber kept on shaving)." I D. ROF. HOOD RIVER, Or., Oct. 20. L. A McArthur, general manager and vice , president of the Pacific Power & Light comr.ny, who has been here attending the annual convention of officials of the Pacific Power & Light company, roundly denounced Andy Gump, candldate-at-large for congress. Mr. McArthur is a brother of C N. McArthur of Portland, candidate for re-election from the third congressional distriot. Family Ties Factor, "This man Gump," said Mr, McArthur. 'is an interloper, and on account of my family connections I cannot vote for him. It la an outrage that he la being allowed to run in so many different districts. aggress il & mrMmm few CHILD HYGIENIC BOOTH AT E ASTERS' HEALTH SHOW OREGOJT SHOW.

At a meeting of Multnomah camp, Woodmen of the World, held Fri day nigTit, the 1927 exposition was indorsed. Five hundred- members were present and a standing vote was taken, the favorable verdict being unanimous. That the promotion of interna tional justice and good will was fur thered in dio iniconsidierable degree during the year by the church fed erations in all parts of the United States was the opinion leading churchmen of Portland expressed at the recent annual convention of the Portland council of churches. Seven regular meetings of the lo cal council's department of interna tional justice and good will were held during the year," said a report read at the convention, which was In session Friday night, "and some of these were of great importance. Rallied in support of a Christian ap peal for the limitation of armaments were 103 churches and other reli gious bodies. They adopted "resolu tions which were telegraphed to President Harding November 8, 1921, urging the president and delegates in the Washington conference 'to seek definite and effective interna tional means to limit immediately and to reduce as rapidly as feasible the present burden of armament.' Local Politics Influenced. "This department also prompted the mayor to call a representative meeting in the city council chamber which resulted in voicing the senti- Iment of the entire city for measures decisively toward the permanent es tablishment of peace. We are in formed by one who should know that the reason Secretary of State Hughes was so courageous in his propositions was because of the growing tide of public sentiment which swept into JSVashington. "This nation-wide intelligent in terest was largely due to the work of the church councils in various cities." . The department of social and in dustrial betterment held thirteen meetings during the year, accord ing to a report from that depart ment read at the annual convention. Numerous Problems Viewed. "The department," .said the re port, "has considered numerous problems, including such matters as marriage and divorce, publicity of facts regarding industrial matters, forums in the churches and investi gation of circuit and municipal courts. "Protests were sent to the mayor and city council against the grant ing of a permit to a troop of dancing women who, desired to put On ex hibitions in coffee houses of the north end, to be followed by collec tions from men and women who in the past were known to conduct themselves in an improper manner. As a result of this protest the chief of police refused the permit. This evidence of esteem in which the po lice bureau holds the church senti ment of the city is a source of grati fication to Christian people. "The mayor has been assisted by this department in' the selection of motion picture censors and in the unemployment campaign. The de partment has helped the fire mar shal's office to reach church con gregations with fire prevention lec tures and propaganda and has made Important suggestions to the charter revision committee. Industrial Conference Held. "An industrial conference was held in May under the auspices of this department. The speakers were Dr. Zane Batten, Dr. Alva. Taylor and Dr. Worth Tippy.
