I recognize that the state of JOregon is claimed as absolutely safe by . tii Republicans leaders: but on the pother hand, a large number of independ. en t observers, who have studied the sit. , ftuation. have stated it as their opinion i.that the electoral vote of ron rnust 'bo placed in tie doubtful llurnV't It ;these independent observers' are right. as I believe them to be. my prophecy ia .definite that Oregon will be found cast ling the majority of its votes on Novera Jber 2 for -the Democratic ticket. J "I base this prophecy on two great" big .fundamental facts in our modern public life and political contests. These two .facts are scarcely open to dispute. Either 0ie of them 1s sufficient to bring my prophecy true with the assistance of both of them there can be no room for aViiKf idoubt PARTISAXSHIP IS PASSIXO v , I ' "The first of. these truths U that' to day, more than ever before In our na tional history, the voters of the . United .States are using their heads. It is. very evident in every state of the union that .narrow partisanship is becoming -j less end less prevalent. It is ruanyevi ;ent that what might be called inherited .partisanship is also passing away. A neration ago a very Urge proportion of the voters of the nation, in both th J Democratic and Republican parties, were partisans because their fathers or their grandfathers had belonged, to a par ticular party. People inner! te their Apolitical faith with as great or even more regularity than they Inherited the jeld homestead or their father's- watch. , "Many elements contributed in the Jld days to this unfortunate tendency, -t vbut , the greatest factor probably was Jthe existence of rancor and bad feel- .lag between . political opponents. A hundred years ago people in thUnit?d .States used to fight duels- over -poll-jtica The feeling ran high; prior to .elections and. violence was hot. Tan ex- " eeptlon. The flghUng of the Civil war ;did little to eradicate the bad feeling. ANTAGOjriSM DISAPPEARS , , . later yers have passed jby, this old antagonism has largely dis-;appeared.-and with its disappearance we are loaiag. gradually but surely, an tanUquated and un-American method of .voting a Ucket because grandpa did. I am perfectly willing to let two .classes In the community vote for Sen ator Harding-this year without any ef fort to call them away.

It would be useless to argue with that type of naiad. i f'l do net ask the vote of aay man.

And the .campaign of the Republican leaders, as - disclosed thus far, is so fun of rntsrepreseuta tien that the i voters have plenty of time to discriminate; to call the bluff. to: discover the truth and, to punish those who are the guilty parties. ) "I suppose it is because the Democratic campaign has pot the Republicans pn the defensive that they are driven to the use of despicable methods. Let me give you an example. During the past week I have been demolishing the silly argument about England being able to outvote us sfx to one in the League ef Nations. I have shown, first, . of - ait, that it is the council of the league which ts'tae true govern ins; body, and that in that council the whole - British empire has but ne vote, just the same as the United -States ; and I nave shown that while a the assemblr. a venr. larere body-which has primarily only recom mendatory; powers, five of Great Bri- wm oomlntons, uke Canada, South Africa and. Australia," each have a vote. the United States of America -will ua- eKjtrbtedly'have the support of twice as many of1 our neighboring and friendly republics In the West, Indies and South America, l citea, tor instance, the fact chat the republic of San Domingo is at he present time being administered by the United States navy, and that as the Interests of the two countries are closely bound up together, the votes ; of both countries would undoubtedly be found in-the same column. , ..
