The Close of the Campaign
AS THE campaign closes three names are recognized as
being in the lead of the various candidates for the repub
lican nomination for governor. They are: Norblad, Corbett
and Joseph. The Statesman reiterates its endorsement of
Harry Corbett for the post of governor.
Corbett is honest, both personally and politically. ;
That means much if you know politics. It means that he
will give the state an honest, capable, independent adminis
tration supported by a mind that thinks clearly, is not easily
stampeded, is not busily engaged in fence-building and: re
pair. It means that as his record shows he is not out to curry
favor with every group of three or four voters. His campaign
shows that. He has made no promises and so will not be em
barrassed by the importunate demands of those who cry for
the moon.
Oregon is not prepared to launch the dream of George
Joseph for state-owned power plants. There is no financial
backing for the enterprise save the property of the people.
There is no outlet for the product save displacement of that
now supplied by private companies or the natural increase
which time brings. Farmers should see through this propo
sition because it places a mortgage on their lands; and has
the effect of taking off the taxrolls utility property and the
farmers are the ones who must take up the slack in taxa
tion. When the question arises as a straight out power ques
tion let it then be fought out on its merits. A vote for Joseph
is merely a protest vote so far as this immeT:ate, issue is
concerned.
We are not excited about this election. We think; the
dome will remain on the capitol no matter who is nominated
or who is elected in November. But we have confidence in
the ability, the character and the record of Corbett so that
we do not hesitate to recommend that the republican voters
of Marion county cast their ballots for him. His nomination
will give no cause for regret and points the way to a smash
ing republican victory in November.
It Is a matter of treat rejoic
ing that real progress ha been
made in tbe control of tubercu
losis. A forward movement of still
greater importance has now bee a
started in co
operative r -search
in tu
berculosis. This
baa been und
ertaken to the
en that knowl
edge o f the
means of its
prevention and
a more direct
method of
treatment may
be obtained.
This highly
specialized and
technical re
search Is being
carried on und
er the direc
tion of the National Tuberculosis
Association. Outstanding special
ists. both men and women. In In
dividual fields, are attacking the
study under a carefully laid co
operative plan
The work is being carried on
in twenty-one different laborator
ies such as The Rockefeller In
stitute of Medical Research, Yale,
Johns Hopkins, Vanderbilt Uni
versity, University of Nebraska,
University of Chicago, Cornell
University and other medical cen
ters.
Two phases of work are being
undertaken. One is for social re
search and the other for medical
research
The germ responsible for tu-
bercnlosis is called the "tuberclfe
bacillus." There can be no tuber
culosis in the absence of this
germ and unless there Is a favor
able soil for the nourishment of
the germ, it cannot take root, or
at least cannot thrive,
The presence of some of the
most simple, ordinary illnesses,
and a tendency to colds, may indi
cate a run-down condition of the
system. A slight cough which
hangs on after a series of cold
should be looked after by your
doctor.
Undernourishment from lack ef
food, or from eating tbe wrong
foods- are other causes.
' A distinguished physician who
is recognized authority on tu
berculosis has said:
"There are six danger signal
which should be watched for es
pecially in children:
"First, persistent underweight
Children and thiu people should
be weighed frequently and sent
for examination if they do not

"Second, unusual fatigue.
"Third, any cough which lasts

Ta some of the best friends of
I the Bit man. who say. regarding
the proposed purchase of the wa
ter system: "The question ie al
ways open, and we can go into
the water business at any time,
bat it la our belief that sufficient
study and investigation have not
been made to undertake so im
portant a step at this time"
S W
The voters of Salem who have
been here for 20 years, and new
comers who have kept up with
events, do not need this advice.
It is manifestly given as a friend
ly and sympathetic gesture to the
private owners of the water com
pany, whose present managers
have done very well with the
property and are making and
promising improvements.
m S
These things are all admitted.
But the people of Salem consider
ed this matter seriously in 1910,
and they voted for city ownership,
and their city council passed the
necessary ordinance for selling
the bonds, and the ordinance was
vetoed by the then mayor, and,
for various reasons that need not
now be recalled (in recrimination
and bitterness), the veto wag not
overridden.
s s s
The price then was around
S400.000: the estimated physical
' value, with no charge for fran
chise value. Had the purchase
been made then, the profits would
have long since wiped out the
first cost of 1400.000. The peo
ple who voted for buying were
thus robbed, along with their
children and otheraiwho came af
ter them.
S ii S
Around 1927, the question was
up again, definitely, and commit
tees were appointed. (It had been
up several times in the interven
ing period: for instance when Dr.
Steeves was mayor,) The price In
1927 was around 5700,000 to
$800,000. And even then, physi
cal value only was considered.
The people would have voted to
buy the systems then, had they
been given a chance without a
doubt. But, for various reasons
not necessary to relate (also in
bitterness), the proposition was
sidetracked and kicked about, till
the present private company got
! a chance to buy. at pernaps a
higher price than the city would
have had to pay. had its voters
been given the chance to take a
ballot.
S
Now, after 20 years of time to
consider, the matter is up again,
compahf is doing a good Job now,
and this franchise wm guarantee
it continuance, with no raise ol
fares. Thi tor fire years. At
the end of that time, if the peo
ple on deck then want to end7 tbe
franchise, they can do so. This
is only fair and decent. If yon
were in their place, would you
want to risk such a venture, in
volving a great deal of money,
without some assurance that yoa
would have a "run for your
money" tor at least five years?
S S
You would want it for a longer
time, unless you had a very-large
bank account and were reckless
in the use of it.
