GENERAL PUBLIC Voters So Far Deaf to Noise; "'.Hall as Possible Independent -Candidate Hangs Like Sword. - Tha strenuous efforts of Walter I. Tooxs Jr.. chairman of the- Republican stats central committee, to . th . con trary notwlthatandlng, !t leenn about as difficult to stir up any general Ja tsrest in etat and local politics as I-It would be to buy a dry martini In. on of those yet unforgptten place where ft used to add Ita Inner glow to the payday throng. ' There are a few here and there lilte the nnchastened tippler and the boot legger who persist in keeping op their Interest in the good old game, nut tney are mostly office holders or those who would like to be. or those other unror tunate who have contracted5 the habit mo firmly they simply can not stop It. ' Broadly speaking, however, there la Oil one uncertainty of the. pending campaign that , la intriguing the minds Of those who follow- politics at all, and that Is whether Charles Hall Jg golhg' to run as an independent candidate for governor at the eleventh hour, or leave the field to Governor Olcott and Wal ter Pierce. B.CMOB PERSISTENT I- The rumor has been persistent for 10 days or more that Hall would yet come into the field. It has come from various sections of Portland ; has floated up definitely from Marshfield. baa been spread and circulated by some of Hall's close friends, until polit ical observers have begun to wonder whether all the smoke does not In fact -JULve some fire behind it. , . '. Some have gone ! so far as to say that Hall's friends have felt out Sec retary of State Kozef regarding hi? construction of that statute- which in hibits defeated nominees from becom ing independent candidates, and that the secretary of state would accept Hall's name as an independent can didate, were it to be. regularly pre sented to ' him on the theory that the statute is unconstitutional. . Bnt that is rumor, though it - serves to keep alive the thought that maybe . there is more than fable to all this whisper ing that Hall has not finished with his efforts to reach the governorship. - Then, on the same subject, a good many are wondering and watting to sea what the executive committee of the "Progressive party" will, do with the "authority to act" granted It at Jts recent convention In reference to the governorship and various other offices. : ELECTORS WE EE FEW " .That convention was a good deal of a dud. not having enough "electors" In attendance to make any . nomina . Vons. But Norman Richards and his Coadjutors, foUowera of Gifford Pin ohot and others,, might yet drum up the necessary 100 - electors to indorse whatever ' the executive committee right see Tit to do. . It would; not' make much difference who put Hall's name on the ballot If it could be put- there, just .bo long as it was there, but it would make a whale of a lot Of difference in the closing day-.; the campaign jrt&ould xnac contingency nappen, In the meantime both01cott and Pierce are pussyfooting- it about over the state in' a sort nf shadow-boxing .tour. It seems to be tha general opin Ion that Olcott is in a stronger posi tion than he was at the close of the primary campaign, but there are still 'great gobs of political dynamite under son for the Western Oregon love feast staged at Eugene last nlghU It ex plains. alao why the stats leaders camped with Pop Gates end Bert An-derson- down at Med ford ami coned them back on the reservation In" Spite of all the" unkind things bey had said abntOicott immediately after- Gates was boosted off the fair boardiJ, In launching this campaign tN re vivify party spirit in the state, Tooae and his advisers have two objects-in mind. They want to bolster tip- the party morale until thai Hall forces will see nothing but misfortune ahead of an independent candidacy, and then they want to jazz 'em xip to go down the line. or the ticket and plug up ftia gaps Pierce has bees digging in the party dike. Just how effective, this ef fort is going to. be ?on s election day is problematical, for the- fellows who are attending the Tooze get-togethef meetings 5are the county; central cora Altteemen and the habitual politicians more 'often than the-. boys "with the whiskers out behind thetraw stacks, and those latter-are oti teUJng as it is their wont not to do until electkraj laay.- wnai wiey.r- aro muitm a. wu, WAITIS & OX Qk.

Miller, the Democratic nqmine'e. . Smith is" due back during the S week and it seems to be the general! opinion that J. K. Weatherford of Ajjbany will be riven that nomination by the com mittee. ( The camp of Elton "Watkins is feel ing a little better, and fthat of Rep resentative MCArtnur a uwe worse. since the Rev. W. T, McElveen de clined the independent nomination for coneress from the Multnomah district. McArthur's henchmen vere juouant at .the prospect of McElvfen s entrance as a candidate, seeing in it a wide split in the McArthur opposition. Since he declined, however, jithe Watkins forces have brought out their grim but cheerful camnaicm smile ajrain and contend they are going to "give Pat the race of his life,j after which they emlle craftily and whisper confi dentially that they are very conserva tive In their statements. SORRY THET SPOKE. S Switching off to the legislature, word comes down from' here and there over the state that some candidates for the house are having trouble in their home districts as a result of having tied up too prematurely withf the speaker ship ambitions of - "Krfp" Kubli of Multnomah. Kubli, hasj in probable reality, some 27 prospective members of the house pledged to his candidacy for speaker. He is regarded, though he denies It strenuous!, as the Ku Klux candidate for that! office, which story has gained widje circulation throughout the state. In some dis tricts where this organization Is not overly popular, prospective members who are tied up to Kubli are having a lot of explaining to doj to their con stituents and, reports $ay. some of them aren danger of defeat. With the date of the I election, No vember 7, only seven wetks distant, it won't be long before all the orators are out and all the candidates begin energetic efforts to convince, the voters that they are the real stjuff. There is yet, however, a day or So of relative peace for the general public. advocate a return to the old eon sys tem, Some tax reduction plan must be included injj the platform, it was, de-: Walter Fierce aa smep votes away from htm. The Ku Klux Klan was never men tioned in the discussion. It was de cided that the religious issue must be sidetracked or else the party would be split for the next 2 year.

Governor Olcott spoke as folows : As Republicans, we are gathered here 'representative of certain great prin ciples. To foster and preserve those principles are duties imposed upon us as American citizens for the promotion of the welfare of our state and nation No party is greater than the welfare of the people. As long as a party and Its candidates are actuated by principles and policies destined to better the wel fare of the great body of the electorate. Just so long Is it justified in its exist ence. The Republican party is actu ated by such principles and such policies. We are caught in the surging tide following a great conflict. There is, and has been, more or less unrest. Shifting scenes, changing conditions, new thoughts, new ideals, all tend toward creating dissatisfaction in the minds of the people. We cannot blind ourselves to these facts. They are before us. It is our duty to meet the facts and so shape the destinies of our party. No one can be unmindful of the sacrifices entailed upon our people by the great war. Every family felt the sting of it, and there are thou sands of vacant chairs to attest to the grief which followed in its wake.

There were some dif ferences of opinion, it : is true, but nothing serious. The "Bolsheviks." as one prominent politician,: dubbed them, were conspicuous by their silence. . VJt good deal or fault was found with the Oregon primary law,: but all pres ent seemed to be of th opinion that it would be dangerous to the party if an attempt were "made t0 change it or changes. The people responded ' Ubr erally.- . to i every financial , demand made upon them. Federal taxes rose by "leaps ' and bounds. Living costs monaied skyward. Each individual pockecbpok was open at all times to tneet new demands. For a tim bbt preCedented. . prosperity made these de mands aeem easy to the many. Bat, diminution of costs tailed to keep pace with the wane of prosperity The householder may have experienced,; a. reduction in income, but the house wife found no consequent reducuon;ra the cost of the table or the price ox commodities, v Slowly that cost re duction is making itself felt. T Govemmenta expense differs to no way from that of the private Individ ual, isreaa costs money, wneuier piu for from the private pocketbook or toy a state warrant. The householder and, the hoosewffe have been compelled to pinch 'the pennies to meet the condi tions. Let me assure you that the state government has been doing, the same thing; :t.. It. Is .ttue-i lnatltuHotuaeosts" ' have been larger than before the, war They have been larger .lor the same reasons that the erocery end--meat bills of toe householder nave been larger. i -.j Tajces have-Been highs This Is a fact not..largaly due, U however, to odmh istrativa, .costs. i3all art await of the vast sums in taxes that have been voted favorably upon at the last few elections. I am not chiding the elec torate for so voting, but to explain the main reason why taxes are 'high, we must cite those-' elections -and the measures' approved , at them. " These moneys have been voted and what ; is dope is done. j Our duty as Republicans Is to fol low the course pursued by the careful householder and housewife, and the same duty is incumbent on every elector, to pinch the taxpayers' pennies, to cut expenses here and there. ;to lessen the cost burdens, in every direc tion possible. This is true not alonelof the state administration. It is a course which must be followed in every tax levying and tax spending division iof Oregon. Down to the smallest political subdivision where money is raised and expended for public purposes, thrift must prevail if we bring about a ma terial lessening of the taxpayer's bur den. No matter under what name they may be called, no matter what .body may bo responsible for making tax levies, it must be. borne In mlpd that all public fends come from the. same source the pocketbook of the tax payer. Whether tax money is spent by the stats,, the county, the city, the port or the school district. It is the taxpayer who pays sad the taxpayer who feels the burden. A dollar is-a dollar whether expeadsd on schools, en roads or on state government. To, save as great a share of the dollar as pos sible is incumbent upon every man in public office who shares in the re sponsibility of public expenditures. . I am proud to aay that. Imder the present state administration. ; business principles have been applied to the conduct of every activity coming,under its control. I point with - Justified pride to the Condition of the state In stitutions -coming under the board .of ntroLjbfwhh.- 1 amamember. with the secretary of stats and state treasurer. - With, this board' lies the responsibility for the care of the In stitutions, save control ever the peni tentiary, which is directly under the governor.

It Jwould afford me ihe' greatest BaiisfaCtJot! itt every dtisent -of Ore gon could -visit - these Initiations ' and I deem it their duty to see what has been accomplished there and what,, la being accomplished.? - Z- believe I may take sons pardonable personal gratifi cation a the fact that the Institutions are on such a high? plane. r? ... ,-miiuinmimnnnmmr. : - Announcing' Opening in New Location !
