, As the Multnomah county delega
tion In the state legislature, because
of Its size, wields mora Influence than
the delegation -of any other county. It
la of the great eat Importance that the
' ' beat men be selected by the voters of
thla county next Tuesday.
I"rora this county 12 state represent
atives and one state senator are to be
elected. In addition thla county will
participate In the election of a state
senator for the fourteenth senatorial
district, including Clackamas, Colum
bia and "Multnomah counties, and a
Joint representative for tha seven
teenth district, including- Clackamas
and Multnomah.
Kach of the parties, except the He
, publican, has taken recognition of
women in politics by nominating one
or mere for state representatives.
The Republican party haa its alata
of Oregonlan hand picked candidates.
Conrad P. Olson is the only one of tha
12 candidates who was not picked by
the Oregonlan. Tha voters are scru-..-
tinlzlng them closely and every Indi
cation la that soma of them will be
woefully scratched. In the list Is
the notorious reactionary, 8. B. Hus
ton, who was one of the leaders In the
assembly when the Oregonlan crowd
" sought to ride over the peopla'a direct
primary law.
4a to Pick rxon.

ers of this county to select from in
choosing their 12 representatives. Of
thise the Republicans have 12, the
Democrats six, the Progressives nine,
the Prohibitionists seven and the So
cialists eight.
As party politics ahould have Utile
to do with the state legislature, Uhe
voters are making a atudy of tha '.en
tire list and will base their selections
upon tha individual merits of the Can
didates. This la why the -Oregonlan s
slat is going to be so generally
scratched by tha great hosts Of pro
. gresslve Republicans who will refuse

ular system of government that have'
. been placed on the ticket.

nation. Party registration lays no re-
strictlons whatever upon a voter at

The principal feature of Dentistry Bill 340 is that a diploma from a reputable dental col
lege in good standing shall entitle the holder to' practice dentistry in Oregon; or, a license
in any other state shall be accepted in this state without examination before the State?
Dental Board. :
For example, my diploma from the Philadelphia Dental College, second oldest dental
school in America and admitted to be one of the best, entitled me to practice dentistry in
New York, Pennsylvania, Maine, Illinois, California and Canada, where I have practiced
during the past 25 years. The Trust admits this is true by printing telegrams from those
states showing I have licenses to practice in those states. It I am competent to prac
tice under my diploma in those states, why am I not competent in Oregon? 1
My diploma was good enough in Oregon until the Trust so doctored the law as to create
a State Dental Examining Board, every member of which is a member of the Trust. By
control of this board, the Trust can now say what particular dentists, and how many,
shall be admitted to practice in Oregon, thereby having a monopoly in dentistry in this
state. A monopoly always means high prices and poor service. If there was competi
tion there would be better dentistry at fair prices. : I
A lawyer can come to Oregon, file his license from another -state and prac
tice law without examination before a state board. The laws of the several states
differ. A dentist should be able to do the same thing, for the human mouth is
the same in all states.
' 'Under the present law, the State Dental Board can admit to practice per
sons who have never graduated from any dental college. Anyone satisfactory to
the trust is admitted. Anyone likely to give the Trust competition is denied a li
cense, the board simply saying he is incompetent. There is no recourse in the
courts. I have been trying to get this board into court with my examination pa
pers for three months, and offered $10,000 if they would prove their claim that
I was incompetent, before election day.
Many dentists now practicing in Oregon never went to a dental college a day
in their lives. One of these is now a member of the State Dental Examining
Board, and has been for nearly 10 years. How can such so-called dlntists pro
tect the public health? . - I .
These so-called dentists were admitted to practice without examination of
any kind when the Trust first jpassed the present dental law througB the legis
lature. They were taken in so the Trust could get a monopoly . of i the dental
business in Oregon.

they never read the (dental law. They never would have known. thm if I had
not shown up the rotten conditions. This law was drawn by the Trust and pu
through the legislature in the "good old days" before the people haJ the initial
tive and referendum. Vote 340 X YES and bust the Dental Trust. U .
