NATOR
THOMPSON
Senator W. Lair Thompson of Lake
county is m Portland In the interest
or nis errorts to land the position of
presidency or the next senate.
Cat-en a . nei .
UI""'r iompon nas Deen working
to this end for a long time. He has
visited personally a number of the
members of the senate and has written
er 1legraphed to many others, asking
ior promise Of support. The votes of
10 senators are necessary to elect the
priding officer, and so far Senator
i iiompson has not secured enough
Mu..ues io insure his election.
Confidence Is Expressed.
vnue declining to say how much
-uppori ne has pledged, Senator
Thompson expresses confidence that he
win e elected. It Is reported, how
ever, mat He has been able to secure
only li votes and that, his election i
not such a sure thing at he would have

tte nas opposition in Senator W. D.
wooa or wasnington county, who is
a iso a noidover senator, and It Is re
ported tnat Senator R. R. Butler of
Waseo county is casting eyes ut the
Place. Senator Wood Is actively after
me position.
when benator Wood was called over
tne telephone today he was somewhat
noncommittal regarding his candidacy,
but said that while Benator Thdhipson
had a lead In the race, he dldn"t have
ine place secured. He said he found
a number of senators obiectlnar to
; having the matter rushed so soon after
election.
Many of the senators seem to think
it would be a good idea to eo a little
slower and take time to get acquaint
ed ana learn more about the situation.
They want to get started right and
seem to be shy of Senator Thompson's
reputation as the out and out spokes
man for the corporation interests at
the Inst session and the appeiratlon of
"Swamp uand Angel," given him be
cause of his sucaess In getting through
tue last session certain swamp land
measures considered by many to be
sntagontntic to the public interest.
They argue that a senator who so con
slstently served special Interests at
the last session might be a dangerous
presiding officer, where he would have
great power in controlling legislation.
When seen today at the Imperial
hotel, Senator Thompson said he had
no legislative program he desired to
put through at the coming session. He
predicted the next session would make
a record for its economical tendencies,
If this proves true, it will be a new
experience -for Senator Thompson, who
has stood In for all the appropriations
.in the past and at the last session vot
ed to override the governor's vetoes
when the governor was endeavoring
to stem the flow of salary increases
an4 other bills carrying appropriations.

"I do not feel that it would be
proper at this time for me to give the
names of the senators who have
agreed 'to support me for president of
the state senate," said Senator Thomp--son.
"It would not be fair to those
members of the senate whom I have
not seen personally and have not heard
from directly. However, I feel that It
is proper for me to say that Ism rea

Among the many attractive exhibits
at the Manufacturers' and Land Prod

post exhibit. There is displayed ail

fcity of articles so
tounding.
To enumerate them all would take
too much space. Suffice to say that
the things accepted range from type
writers, sacks of flour, baby car
riages and automobile tires to egs
and apples.
But aside from the exhibit proper,
the display goes far in showing hoy
goods should be- packed for parcel post
shipment and by attractive poster,
signs tells its audience the kind of
articles that are accepted and are not
acceptable for transportation through
the malls.
For example, a number of egg car
riers are displayed. These show how
eggs for setting purposes should be
packed, a method which is much dif
ferent from ordinary commercial pack
ing. It also shows how breakable
articles should be prepared for a Jour

used by the postofflce to handle and
deliver the great mass of things now

determined to tnake the coming ses
sion of the legislature the most eco
nomical in the history of tho state.
Many have definite ideas as io what
should be done to stop the inroads
upon the taxpayers' pocketbooks, but
all agree that the taxpaylng public ia
entitled to relief, and that the legis
lature will go to the extent of forc
ing economny in the administration of
county government, if necessary, to
accomplish this object.
Matters Are Discussed.
"There is a ; general disposition te
restore the old provision for payment
of taxes in installments, without pen
alty if each installment Is paid with
in the time provided by law. There
also seems to be a general inclination
to reduce the machinery of govern
ment, if necessary, abolishing or con
solidating some of the very numerous
commissions amd bureaus that have
been created in comparatively recent
years.
"I found nd disposition to direct
any legislation at any commission or
bureau for the purpose of 'punishing
anyone, but every member seems to
have an eye solely to the best inter
ests of the taxpayer.
"Regarding the prohibition amend
ment, I feel safe in saying that any
machinery needed to carry out the
spirit and letter of this amendment
will be provided, willingly by the leg
islature. The members of the legis
lature desire that the will of the peo
ple in this regard, as well as others,
shall be enforced.
"Regarding the organization of the
State senate, and re-asserting my
Statement that! I eel quite assured 1
shall be elected president of that body,
I wish to say that in securirfg this
assurance I have not made a single
pledge, and I shall not make any.
Policy Is Given.
"The committees of the senare will
be selected by me, if I am elected to
preside over that body, with Hie sole
purpose of securing the very best re
sults for tho entire people of the state
of Oregon. During the - past several
years I have become reasonably famil
iar with the ability and particular
qualifications of the men who will
compose the next state senate, and
should know something of the com
mittees upon which they can serve the
people best.
VThe action of the state senate this
time upon legislation will not be in
fluenced in any manner by pre-organi-zation
pledges, and I believe not by a
bitter pre-organization fight.
"I am entirely unfamiliar with -'what
has been or is being done looking to
organisation of the house of repre
sentatives. I am not a member of
that body, and shall not take any part
In Its organisation.""

Flans for the new First National
bank building at Fifth and Stark

by January 1, and the work of build

practically all of next year. Approxi
mately $1,000,000 will be spent for
building and site. It will be the only

Mills. An important stimulus to lo

the money distributed in building.

"It is a dreadful disease for which
there- is no known cure. It breaks out
first in little sores on the mouth and
then is spread to the feet and sides
when the animal licks other portions
of its body.
"Frequently the animals cure them
selves in some way or another, but
ordinarily they become covered with
sores and simply waste away. It is
very contagious and its spread is only
prevented by the strictest quarantine
measures. Not uncommon is It to
have the disease in one district and
be free from it in the next and ad
joining district.
"The foot and mouth disease is
transmitted from one place to an
other in water, on the feet of men and
animals and in other ways.- The germ
is evidently present in the sick ani
mal's saliva.
"England has been kept well free
from it by the most stringent quar
antine and examination measures."

MUSIC a Necessity
1 Do you regard music as a luxury ? When you feel it
necessary to curtail expenditure, do you think that
music, at least, is one thing you can do without?
If You are mistaken. Music is one of the necessities of
life. Since the birth of man, among civilized and unciv
ilized alike, music more trian any other influence has
soothed, inspired and stimulated the race.
T After the day is over, an evening of musicv in your
home, will amply repay anything you have to spend to
get it will rest, strengthen and inspire you -even the
carefree children.. J
If It is time that you awoke and realized that you need
music now and that music in its most enjoyable forms
can so easily be yours. ;
