THE HILLSBORO ARGUS County Official Paper L. A. Long, Editor. Entered at the Post Office at Hillsboro, Oregon, as second class mail matter. Subscription, $1.50 per annum. Issued every Thursday by Mrs. E. C. McKinney and L. A. Long. , United States Senator (ieo. E. Chamberlain should receive the democratic nomination on May 21 beyond cavil or 'dispute. He has been a senator of the whole people, and has given Oregon fame and prestige in National council. Petty spite ami preju dice should keep no real demo crat from voting for him on pri mary day. He has at all times stood for the welfare of the ser vice men, not only of Oregon, but of the entire nation. When a friend at court does the American thing it is shameful that a small clique should seek to defeat him for a return where lie can keep up the good work for Oregon. While Oregon suffered from frost last Winter, doing some damage, there was no comparison between our discomforts and those, of the East and Middle West. This is well proven by the fact that Oregon today is full of home hunters from the Mississip pi belt. Bill Bryan won out in Nebras ka against big odds, aud he will go to the National convention at San Francisco, where, as usual, he will be a thorn in the sides of those who would pervert the or ganization to base uses. Mr. Bry an is American to the backbone, and there is none so small-witted to deny that he is feared by the "big fellows" more than any oth er man in public life. M.

THAT was before the days when pretty nearly everybody owned one or could, if he wanted to. There was a lot of waste about motoring in those days. A man spent a lot of money on his car and never thought very much about what he was getting in return. When a" man buys a tire nowadays he has a pretty definite idea of what he ex pects to get out of it. The dealer who sells him one that gives him Jess than he expects isn't likely to get any more of his business. That's one of the reasons why we handle U. S.

Everybody wants good roads AND WANT THEM FOR TI'IS GEI'FR ATION. , 2nd. Automobile anj gaaoline tax AT THE PRESENT RATE will pay in terest and principal and provide a surplus during the life of the bonds so that, 3rd there will be no increase in general taxes. 4th The automobile owner knows he can save several times the cost of this tax in time, tires and trouble, and is glad to pay it if he can only get the roads. Why not let him? 5th Oregon wants its share of the Federal Road Fund to get it we must match Uncle Sam dollar for dollar, AND HAVE THE MONEY READY if we don't, some other State will. 6th Wait until we can get a "dollar's worth of road for a dollar?" VVti.J knows bow long that will be? Five, 25 or 50 years? . 7th Property along permanent highways has doubled in value in a year while all land within "reaching distance" has increased in proportion. When this can be done at the cost of the auto owner, who himself snyes mon ey by doing it, WHY NOT DO IT NOW? Indorsed and approved by The Hillsboro Ciub. CHAS. E. WELLS, President. B. W.
