Correspondent Presents His
Views in Relation to Sen.
Chamberlain and Opponent
Portland, Sept. It. To tfs Editor of
The Journal Tour paper deserves
much credit b5caute it Is always on
the eld of all the people, especially
In demanding that Astoria, shall, hare
the same railway rates that Tacoma
and Seattle have; also, for the great
fight for the Chamberlain rivers and
harbors bill. In ho doing. The Journal
1m boosting for Astoria. Portland and
the grvuA Inland Kmplre, But the Ore
Kontan Is doing all it can against As
toria, Portland and the Inland Kmplre
by lUt editorials and its cartoons. One
In compelled to believe It is more in
terested in Seattle than it is in As
toria and Portland.
The Oregonlan for years has done
all it could for Seattle by fighting
Aotorla. It has caused nine-tenths of
all the export business to go to Se
attle. If the Oregonian can beat the
rivers and harbors bill, that will en
able Seattle to retain all the business
It now has, that belongs to Portland
and Astoria. If the bill Is beaten.
Oregon directly and indirectly will
lop billions of dollars. Seattle will
gain what we loe. I
If the rivers and harbors bill passes
It will give 40 feet of water over the
Columbia, river bar. With that depth
of water over the bar, it will give
Portland and Astoria seven times the
bitalness we now have, which means
Portland will have in eight years over
.ri 00,000 people, and Astoria not less
than 10,000. Portland can't grow un
less we get that 40 feet of water.
Astoria can't grow unless Portland
grows five times faster. What As
toria gains, Portland doesn't lose but
gains.
Comparisons as to Efficiency.
It appears -that the Oregonian is
willing to beat this state and the In
land Kmplre out of billions, for no
other reason but to elect Mr. Booth
senator. All the voters know that
George K. Chamberlain has done and
will do more in the senate for Oregon
that any other man in the state. "Mr.
Booth never held an office, hence has
no experience, except that when he
was state senator be voted against the
direct primary law. Senator Chamber
lain -has held all kinds of offices and
always has made more than good. He
has always been elected and reelected
by Intelligent, sane Republicans, and
will be again. We want the man that
knows, and who has and' always will
get Oregon more from the government
than any other man or men In this
or any other stata Mr. Booth has
made millions In the past few years
by getting his poor relations and
friends to file on timber claims and
deed them over to him. He is a very
generous man, according to the Ore
gonian so very generous with his
poor, helpless relations, . that he ac
tually paid them as high as $150 for
Umber claims that are now worth
from fSOOO to $20,000 each. Mr. Booth
is too generous to send away from
Oregon; he could do much more for
his poor relations by posting them
how to get him some more timber
claims at one-thousandth part of their
true value.
Mr. Hanley says he voted for Wood
row Wilson, and will be a good, true
Democrat (if elected). Mr. Hanley
knows how to raise calves; he knows
that bo will not get over 3000 votes
in the state; he also knows those
votes will come from Chamberlain's
side.
A Discredited Adviser.
If Woodrow Wilson had taken the
advice of the Oregonian and the in
terests, thousands of our brave sons
would now be dead in Mexico. All
of Kurope except England would now
be fighting us as they are Germany.
We would be in debt billions of dol
lars and the pension" list would be
enormouK. Mr. Booth has one chance
in u million. He will have to get
the Oregonian to boost tor Chamber
lain, because over half of all the vot
ers always vote Just opposite to the
Oregonian s advice.
Senator ( Chamberlain Is being lied
about and all kinds of dirty jobs
are being hatched against him. One
of them Is that he Is and always has
been against woman suffrage. The
fact Is he has always been in favor
of giving the women the ballot.
