The Portland Municipal association
Intends to take an active hand in the
pending political campaign by the In
dorsement of and aotlve work for such
candidates for public office as may
measure up to the standards set by the
organisation.
At a meeting of the association held
some time during the latter part of
February It was decided to take an
atclve part In the campaign, and in
furtherance of this plan It was decided
that all candidates who should come
out for office should be given the scru
tiny of the committees of the associa
tion. In accordance with this plan differ
ent candidates for office have come un
der the searchlight from time to time
as the association has held its meetings.
So far this investigation has resulted
In the Indorsement of James Cole for
district attorney. He will be given the
active official support of the associa
tion and the individual aid of the mem
bers before the primaries, and should
he be nominated will be backed through
tne iinai contest to tne election in June.
The whole ticket will be scanned by
tne memoers 01 tne association, How
ever, and indorsements will be made
for each office. As It Is now planned,
a meeting of the association will be
held during the present week, at which
In alf probability a number of Indorse
ments will be made.
It is the purpose of the association In
making the indorsements to pick out
men whose past records and pledges for
the future will square with the princi
ples of law enforcement and clean poli
tics which are supported by the organ
isation. All candidates to receive the
Indorsement of the association will have
to come up-to the standard set by the
organization.
If there Is no candidate for any par
ticular office who meets with the re
quirements of the association, no in
dorsement will be made for that office
but the place will be passed ovrr All
candidates, however, who are worthy of
me support win oe oacxea actively
inrouxnuui tne campaign. 11 is ex.
nected that the attitude of th e asannin
tion will have a material effect upon
win resuiia as Biiuwu vj me vote in
J una.
For the Information of the voters of
the state all those measures which are
to come before the people at the election
in June by Initiative, or referendum, or
by reference to the referendum vote of
the people by the last session of the
legislature, will be printed In full by
The Journal from day to day until all
the measures have been reproduced. In
the cases of those measures for which
arguments have been submitted or
against which objections have been
filed, these arguments or objections will
be printed, together with the measure
to which they refer.
Altogether there are 19 of these meas
ures to be considered in June. The
measures are taken from a pamphlet
sent out by the secretary of state con
taining all of the measures and the
arguments filed with the secretary for
ana against them.
In the current Issue the proposed
amendment to the constitution of the
state providing for a change In the
emoluments of members of the legisla
ture will be printed. This Is a meas
ure submitted to the people by the legis
lature. It provides that the members
of the legislature shall receive 110 per
