Just now there appears to be
but little doubt but that it is
Senator Oake of Oregon. Once
the campaign started it was
speedil' seen that the oft-boast
ed personal popularity of
George, the governor, was not
so almighty stout as it once was
Various things that some folks
have known about our chief ex
ecutive have come to light, and
and a lot of folks are today
doubtful if George was such a
whale of a man after all.
The nearer Oregon makes ii
unanimous for Cake the better
for Oregon. There are a few
places where party politics still
conn'; they don t usually in
city, county and district affairs;
but they do in national affairs,
especially in the upper house
of Congress, where the majority
party gets what it wants and
the minority sits tight and
waits. Oregon wants a lot ot
things from Congress; it can
never get them through a dem
ocratic senator.
Between the men personally
the issue is not drawn; it is not
a personal campaign; if it was
Mr. Cake would not be on the
defensive.
It is also remembered that

POLITICAL SPEAKING

dress the voters of this precinct

The public is' cordially invited
to come out and hear Mr. Sprin
ger discuss the issues of the
campaign,
DR. CLARENCE TRUE WILSON ON WOK
- AN'S SUFFRAGE.
The question is not whether women
have a right to vote, but it is whether
we have a right to compel them all to
vote at the dictation of a very small
minority of their own number. It is
certain the vast majority of our women
do not wish the ballot. The laws for
the protection of "women are improving
steadih with the years and every inter
est of hers is as well safe-guarded as
that of any man. If you wifch to protect
the lights of women, ask yourself today,
does my wife want to vote, does my sis
ter, does my mother claim it to be her
privilege? If they do not, what right
have I to compel them to do it by my
ballot?
But it is said we need the ballot of
woman to aid us in government. But is
it expedient? Will society be improved
by the granting of the ballot to women?
Will the better element of women come
to the front as political workers and fill
our oflleoa, or will the worse? Which is
the better element of women? The
quiet and unassuming queens of our
homes, our mothers, sisters, wives and
sweethearts, or will politics be con
trolled by the clubwomen? This is hot
an untried experiment. Four states
have given the ballot to women uncon
ditionally, and alter 30 years of women's
voting, politics has not arrived at the
moral standard of our own fct,ate, in Wy
omini'. Colorado, Utah, or Idaho. But
vou say, "There are not as many women
ng men in Wyoming." Yes, but in
Utah women are so plentiful that seven
or eight of them club together and keep
one husband between them, and with
this numerous company they have not
closed the saloons, or closed the broth
els, or prevented gambling dens, or pur
ified politics. Indeed, there are not four
states in our Union whro politics is so
corrupt as in tho four states whore
women vole. It is a sad picture whore a

tho Voters of Crook County:
This is to certify that Professor W. 11.
fJookj tlio Democratic nominee for
school superintendent in your county,
has been a student and a teacher under
my supervision in this county for sev
eral years. During my LU years experi
ence as principal and county superin
tendent and principal in Linn county, I
havo never met a young man of more
studious habits or greater worth in all
that goes to itiake a successful school
man, than Mr. Cook. Ho has always
been found true to any trust confided to
his care. I have no hesitancy in sinting
that I believe Mr. Cook will givo to the
people of Crook county a safe, wiso and
nronrcssivo administration as superin
tendent of schools.

Thinks Prohibition Did Not Pay
Portland; May 19. To the Editor of
the Journal. Being a regular reader of
the Journal and interested in its wel
fare, I am sorry to see you imposed
upon. I hope you will make this pub
lic so that tho people may know that
your paper is not biased. In an edito
rial printed on the 8th inst., entitled
"Does Prohibition Pay?" it is plain that
the paper has been grossly deceived. L.
G. Gates of Kent, Oregon, is quoted as
saying that in two years of prohibition
in Sherman county $U3,000 , has been
saved to the people and that taxes have
been lower. ,
In the first place lie falls to explain how
all tills money has been saved. Surely not
because the people of that county hae
been doing a much larger percentage of
their buying at The Dulles ,and in Port
land since the county went dry than
before'.'
In the second place, Mr. Kent Is either
woefully Ignorant upon the subject he at
tempts to discjiss, or has. deliberately at
tempted to deceive the public. The taxes
in Sherman county have not been lower
since prohibition went into effect; thej
have increased to an alarming extent.
I do not ask you to accept my unsup
ported word, as does the gentleman fioin
Kent, but refer 3 ou to the public records
of Sherman county. They will show that
lu 1903, the year before prohibition went
iuto effect, the county tax was 8 mills on
the dollar. In 1100 the county tax was in
creased to 10 mills and in 1907 Increased
to 12 mills. S
The city taxes in Sherman county for
the same years show a similar increase:
1005 11XW 1107
Mills Mills -Mlll
Moro - - 10 10 10
Grass Valley - !J 12 12
Wasco - - 15 15
This does not look as if taxes had been
reduced by prohibition, does it'.'
Mr. Kent Is an agent for Dolfour, Outh-
rie & Co., wlio buy barley from the l.iriu-
ers of Sherman county to sell to the 1 n-w-
ers. Is is possible that Mr. Kent Is q.uie
tin; "disinterested" business man pictured
in the Journal's editorial.

Editor Pioneer:
Before another letter could reach the
people through your splendid paper, the
stiui;le between the home and the saloon
will have ended ou Monday, June 1, and
we desire to thank you for allowing us the
privilege of ,your columns.
When the Lord was on earth He was
exemplary in every respect. iille lie
waged ceaseless warlare ugalnst sin wher
ever he found it, he had at the same time
all love and sympahty for the poor fallen
sinner and never did tho sinner fall too
low for him to stoop down and lift him up
with the words, "Go and sin no more."
My friends, how well havo we heon emu
lating our blessed Master V Have we imt
rather reversed his plan and held to our
bosom In delusive phantom the licensed
liquor traflic and turning our bucko upon
the miserable diunlcard and his wretched
fa-- 11)', the only linis'hed product of tho sa
loon V Why not face about and wage war
against the saloon that caused his down
fall and give a helping Jinnd tojlie drunk-
aid and his family by removing the curse
from him? Havo wo not tried to reverse
the Havlor'n plan of reformation long
enough ? Wijy not change our past wuy
of doing and try his way oijce and test It?
Lotus do this Monday, Jnuol. iot us
not forget that "(W nro our inoiner fl
keeper." Wo would 110$ thlnlcpf sued a
thing as llcenslug u cesspool at any price,
where tho germs of t)phoid (over or con
BumptIoij,we,re to be grown, because wo
would be afraid of our loveu ones laiting
the dea'dly diseases, yet for a paltry sum
of money some of our otherwise- talr cities
have been, persuaded to license tho Hiloon
to sell liquor whrch produces tho worst
foilns of dlscaswan'd death, ai'ld which, ac
cording to Gladstone, causes mom misery
than war, famine and pestilence."
In all of this land there is nothlngjlko
tho American saloon, tho blacic mark
upon our otherwise fair name. In view
of all that has been Bald and dono would
It not bo wise, and fair and light to givo
local option a trial and If it does not prove
satisfactory, the question Is still in tho
hands of a sovereign people.
