FOR CHAMBERLAIN
Hr. "Henry Waldo Co-, Projtrx"
ive Republican, is out editorially
(or Senator Chamberlain's rc
e lection. He says:
"Never has there as much as a
Mush of kUiciou arise n touching
the moral integrity of Geo. E.
Chamberlain. Senator Chanbc
laiu is now in the best years of
his public life. Oregon should
retain and use him therefor. He
must Ik kept iu the saddle anoth
er tcrnt. He must further serve
the state, receiving a crowning
recognition from hi- long life and
superb ucfulness to state, nation
and world. The glory will be
Oregon's glory.
The writer had three cons is
the late war. He has therefore
more than a passing interest in
the events which led up to and
carried through the great issues.
Chamberlain was the leader of the
greatest committee in Congress.
What he did, in this and a hun
dred other situations, for me and
my boys, and for every other
father and mother who had a
child in the service, is past pay'
ing for. If Chamberlain had wait
ed until some caucus had direct
ed him how to act many a parent
happy today in the return of a
son would now be living in a
home of sorrow on account of
something that would be lying un
der a w hite cross in a poppy bor
dered graveyard in a foreign
land."
Portland is in a row over the
matter of boudiug for the port,
and there are those lighting the
pro)ocd measure ou the ballot
allowing the voting of bonds.
Portland hfty year hence should
have the largest port ou the Pa
cine Coast. Portland lays against
the greatest wheat field West of
the Kockics; lays adjoining the
greatest individual forest iu the
I'uited States; and is peculiarly
situated so as to make a salt-aud
tresh water port combined, and
its future should in no way be
discounted by friction between ri
val real estate holders. If Port
land is to keep up its gain as a
port of substance its people
should get together and do thing
"uot dream them all day long."
Mark Sullivan, political w riter,
says that the trend of political
strength has been going to Cos iu
the Last ever since Mr. Harding's
DcsMoiucs speech.
Just as long as Washington,
California and Idaho encourage
capital by abstaining from ad
verse legislation on interest rates
just that long will Oregon be un
wise to vote in the five per cent,
interest-measure now on the bal
lot. Millions of dollars now com
ing to Oregon fo.r investment in
backing up the big industrial pro
jects of the state a state that
has onc-scvenlh of the Nation's
standing timber will go to the
adjoining states for investment.
Just why Oregon should be asked
to throw obstacles in the way of
progress, and just why it is ex
acted that the state will vote to
keep manufacturing money away
from its coiiliiu s, is hard of anal
ysis. When you go into the booth
next Tuesday answer this by vot
ing "315 X No."
A vote for Geo. . Chauibcrlaiu
is a vote of confidence in the man
who looked out for the service
boys who is there to deny this?
Perhaps Swift & Co., the big
packing barons.
The big corporations are all
supporting Mr. Harding. That;
should be suiheient within itself j
to support Mr. Cox, for the big
corporations want all the labor
and all the product possible for
their almighty dollar.
FOUR FISHERMEN
Four Hillsboro fishermen return
ed the first of the week from an
expedition to the Nestueca. They
were Senator Hare, T. C. Hey
nolds, Grover Combs and Jack
Baynard. The boys trolled for
salmon and had a splendid time,'
although they claim the salmon'
were not runuing the best. Each'
one' made nice catches, and thej
way the quartet handled a motor!
boat they hired would have made!
a good subject for the movies.
Combs and Reynolds were master
and pilot of a small boat, and
when they started down the Nes
tueca the bow was almost sub
merged. When Hare and Rey
nolds asked them why didn't they
get in the center of the boat, or a
little back, to give the bow a J
chance, cacti contended that their
catch would weigh down the stern
enough to even the keel.
