The Meier Rally AT LAST we have heard real speeches in favor of Julias Meier aad the Meier program. It has been exceedingly baffling to put one's finger on Just what the campaign was all about We were greatly disappointed in Mr. Meier's own talk because It was jast a personal appeal for votes or criticism- of those who opposed Mm. There was no meat on the bones of bis talk. Friday night, however, Salem people were privileged to hear Ms. Alexander Thompson speaking for Mr. Meier and Homer T. Bon for the grange power bHl plus Mr. Meier. In this two hours and a half the whole story was told; so now we have something real to shoot at if we attempt to oppose the Meier candidacy. Mrs. Thompson was quite a strong speaker. She has a fine speaking voice, a good stage appearance, and handled her material with skill. Her evident sincerity would carry much conviction were it not for the fact that she campaigned Just as ardently, just as heroically. Just as vigorously fdT Charles Hall in the primary cam paign last Eprlng. We confess we find It hard to shift masters quite as easily as Mrs. Thompson. Mr. Bone's talk was more of a harrangue. So ted ions did It be- rvma (tial man nennla nrnu and !ft Hw hall. Rut there was en- nine substance to Bone's address .... with a- lot of punch which got over witn the erowa. Now In a manner not at all want to review dispassionately the arguments which they put for ward in support of their program and candidate. Of the addresses of both speakers about 90 was devoted to extolling the virtues of public ownership and the sins of private ownership. Suppose we grant the truth of all that was said, what ha that to do with the case? Oregon laws permit and foster muni cipal ownership and have for many, many years. Under these laws moat municipalities own their water plants and some own their electric plants. McMinnville for instance has owned and operated its electric plant for over forty years. Ashland has had municipal ownership for a long period, and so has Eugene. For seventeen years Portland has had power under its own charter to go into the light and power business whenever it wanted to; Salem's charter gives that authority. Any city in the state may go into the business whenever it decides to do so. Electing Mr. Meier will not put a aitigle city in the power business unless it goes in of its own accord. If Mr. Meier were sincere would he not be spending the fortune which he or his friends are spending in promoting municipal own ership for Portland instead of trying to get elected for office? In brief Mrs. Thompson and Mr. Bone gave nine-tenths of their time extolling public ownership which we have already within our ivo wer. ( Remaining points of the Bone speech we may take up one by one. 1. Financing power plants by utility certificates. Bone made quite a lot of the fact that Tacoma finances its extensions by these utility certificates. Yet Bone did not tell you that the first bonds issued were general obligation bonds, and not until the Tacoma plant had built up both earnings and plant assets did it finance itoelf by utility certificates. We ask Mr. Bone to show us a single case where a municipality on any considerable scale was able to launch public ownership of a light and power plant except by general obligation bonds. It might be accomplished through utility certificates but only at a discount which would be almost prohibitive. 2. Mr. Bone condemned the private utilities for selling elec tric appliances in competition with the independent merchants. But Mr. Bone did not tell his hearers that the Tacoma light de partment itself sells ranges, amps and water heaters in competition with Independent stores. Nor did he tell that the city light depart ment of Seattle sells all electric appliances (reputedly at cut prices) in competition with Seattle stores. Two years ago Seattle merchants asked the Puget Sound Light & Power company and the City Light department to desist from sales of merchandise and leave that bus iness to the stores. The Puget Sound Light & Power company com plied with the request, but City Light did not. A year later the stores voluntarily asked the private company to re-enter the retail field, saying they did not think it was fair for them to stay out if City Light continued; also that they felt the advertising done by the private company stimulated their own Fates. 3. Mr. Bone told how the Tacoma light department paid 7 of its gross revenues to the city as a gross earnings tax. He did not tell yon that the Pepco pays 13'; of its gross earnings in taxes. 4. Mr. Bone spent much of his time criticizing newspapers which accept power company advertising and then publish editorials or news favorable to the power companies. In other words, he in dicts the integrity of the press, and that cannot be permitted to pass unchallenged. We do not believe the newspapers of Oregon in any great number are influenced by the power company advertising which they have published. So far as The Statesman is concerned, we have accepted such advertising, just as we would accept adver tising from Mr. Meier, the grange or any other legitimate interest, but this advertising does not affect our editorial comment. Using th same line of reasoning shall we say that the Portland Telegram -and Journal and News are bought up for Meter by Meier and Frank advertising? Incidentally, these papers too are publish ing power company advertising. Most newspapers take this attitude that their advertising col umns are for sale at regular rates: their editorial and news columns are not for sale. Speaking of the subsidized press, what about subsidized speak ers? Do Mrs. Thompson and Mr. Bone and Mr. Harlan speak over the state without compensation and without expense money? 5. The grange power bill. Mr. Bone urged this but very brief ly and quite vaguely. He spent most of his time explaining away alleged flaws in his own Bone bill that was defeated in Washington in 1324. There would be scant objection to the grange power bill in merely giving to rural districts the power to go Into public owner ship provided there were limitations on the taxing and bonding power. In fact if Oregon does go Into municipal ownership we be " lieve it would be better to go in in large districts than in individual city or country units, each with separate small plants. Mr. Bone tried to explain away this lack of limit on taxes and bonds in th9 grange bill by saying that it was merely added to Article XI of the constitution, and the limitation appeared in Article XI. Very well, let us turn to Article XI, which includes the six per cent limitation which Bone doubtless meant and which reads in jaTt as follows: "Unless specifically authorized by a majority of the legal voters . . . neither the state nor any . . . district or body to which the power to levy a tax shall have been delegated shall of revenue for purposes other than the payment of bonded in in any year so exercise that power as to raise a greater amount debtedness or interest thereon than the total amount levied by it in the year immediately preceding for purposes other than bonded indebtedness or interest thereon plus six per centum thereof . . ." This provision specifically excludes the "six percent limitation from applying to raising money for bonds or bond interest. There is therefore NO LIMIT either in Article XI or in the language of the grange power bill to the issuance of bonds or to the levy of taxes to pay said bond interest or principal. We extend to Mr. Bone the privilege of setting forth In these columns wherein Article XI limits the unlimited provisions of the grange power bill which are its real dangers. He or the Telegram might even get a Salem judge to 'hand down an opinion" on the subject that might be helpful. Now boil down all that31r. Bone said and all that Mrs. Thomp son said in praise of public ownership. Oregon laws now permit and encourage municipal ownership and no new legislation is necessary on the subject. The grange power bill is objectionable not because It permits country districts to do something which cities may now do. but because it puts NO LIMITS for taxes and bonds to promote the program. The grangers themselves ought to see the menace of this because It permits cities to Include a lot of rural territory in new taxing districts with NO GUARANTEE that the lines would reach out into the country, and NO LIMIT on the tax the farmer would have to pay. The cities have the voting power; the rural communities would have to whistle for benefits. Our nose doesn't have a three thousand mile range, but some thing tells us there is something smelly about its Ires a charges the bishops have brought against Bishop James Cannon, Jr. Now the bishop is suing Hearst for five million dollars for alleged libeL which will make people lean forward and take another whiff. Some scandal ef course wosld be Just what the Cannon-haters are hot to find and air. Editor-Manager Managing Editor and he gave his side of the story J ..... I unfriendly to these speakers we HEALTH Today's Talk By TL 8.CopelanJ, M. P. With our present-day knowl edge of nutrition, we most take great carei In providing the prop er combination ox food. We mast do this to give oar chil dren the best nutri !on pos sible. Among our faulty prac tices is the tendency of In eluding too much sweet in the diet. Sugar is an important ele ment in some of the best ' of our natural always found In foods. It is fruits. Except In honey, it Is rare ly found without being combined with certain salts and fibre. Te gets its benefits the foods mast be- carefully chewed and proper ly mixed with the saliva. Then it Is ready for the gastric juices. All persons crave sweets, espe cially the children. This is well, because a moderate use of sugar is necessary to meet the demands of the active youngsters. They need the carbohydrates, which are the sugars -and starches, to make energy. There is no doubt that many young children are given too much sugar. In the past many baby food formulas were used which contained too much sugar, more than Is found in mother's milk. "By overfeeding of sweets there is danger that a child's taste may become perverted. Then be will crave more and more su gar. There are many-sided foods and the one-sided food. The many-sld- nnf Aittlwa'' f AAilal IflAlUflSl ed. "protective" foods Include cereals, breads tuffs, meat, milk fruits and vegetables. All these contain kthe life-giving elements. and, when properly combined, they make an ideal diet for the growing child, as we'l as fer the adult. The one-sided food, such as su gar, Is all right in its place and in proper quantity, but It must not be taken to the exclusion of the important protective foods. If taken in reasonable quantities, and after the nourishing foods have been eaten, they are good for you and your child. To be perfectly straightforward on the subject, white sugar can only be classed as a one-sided food, it is deficient in the neces sary proteins, minerals and vita mins which we must have In the diet. If we are to have good health. If sugar is taken fn the form of candy, or any concentrated form, and used to excess it may prove trouble ome. When a child is given too many sweets, such as candy, Jam or chic olate, they Interefere with the for mation and composition of the sa liva. It lessens the power to di gest starchy foods. A diet of this sort spoils the appetite for foods which are for more important to growth and development. Many of the thousands of cases of dental defects date from the time when the Infant was persist ently given too much sugar at feeding time. Don't make the mis take of giving in to your child every time he cries for candy and sweets. Keep for his dessert at luncheon or dinner some sweets, as maple syrup, or brown sugar, applied on the pudding, but cur tail the candy and Jam. Teach your child the right habits of eat ing from the earliest possible mo ment. That Is the way to build for health. Answers to Health Queries MRS. J. P. T. Q.

KJl CHAPTER 27 On a day when rain lashed Orant avenue and machines slid cautiously by the glass paneled front door of The Caprice, Tom Corbett entered the shop. From the smokerie came the voices of Cecile and Jeanette and the insolent caress of Cyril Un derbill's drawl. Tom scowled and carefully avoided the open doorway. He disliked the smok erie. Walking over to Ardeth, and speaking in a cautiously low voice, he regarded his gray felt hat, stained black and shapeless by moisture. "Raining cats and dogs. Good thing, though. Rain here means snow up in the mountains. I heard from a fellow lives in the small town near my cabin up there. Says they had a fine fall last week." His brown eyes went a little shyly to the girl. "Mary say anything to you yet?" Her astonished gaze met his squarely. "Mary? Mary East wood? No. About what?" Tom scratched his head like a bashful youngster. "Pshaw. Put my foot In it again, didn't I. Well, she will . You see, Mary's going to chaperone a bunch I've invited up to my mountain cabin for a snow party. You're included. Mary said she was going to speak to you." When thi girl opened her lips to speak Tom's words flowed a little faster. "Going to refuse, aren't you? Got to be a habit, hasn't it, turn ing me down " He grinned but there was something hurt and wistful 4n bis eye3. "Save your breath this time; he's coming, too. Oh, don't try to look so in nocent and surprised. You know 1 mean old Ken." "Why I I didn't say " Tom's grin was a trifle thin. "Sure. I invited him to get you up there." 4 Ardeth felt her cheeks burn. "Oh, of course! So popular I am!" she tried to jeer. "Anyway in spite of your deep scheming, I can't 'go. Jeanette needs me. Someone has to be here in the shop." "I've talked that all over with Jeanette," returned Tom. "See WINS AIRCRAFT 12 ' Bernard Collins; 17. ef Provi- f oerura uouins, u. ex rTOVT dence( R.

By GLADYS -Vl 1 VrVlL I have you in a corner. It's Just a week-end party. Most of us are leaving Friday. But you can come up with Fred Eastwood on Satur day. How does that suit you?" Her eyes were dancing and he read her delight In the deepened rose of her cheeks. Something flamed in the man's eyes. "You're a darling!" he said fervently, then turned scarlet and pretended to be examining a chiffon scarf sewn with seed pearls as a customer came in. When Mary Eastwood came in to the shop later in the day she came directly to the girl behind the case. "Tom told me he spoke to you. He really has a jolly little cabin and we're going to rough it. Get our own meals, you know. No servants. Fred and I will be chaperones. Phyllis Hawkins and Malda Duvant are the other girls. Ken Gleason and Bill Lane and you and Tom that's all." Then, in her own direct way, Mary broke off to eye the girl before her, curiously. "You clever little devil do you know what you're doing? Here, Ardeth, don't you pull that baby stare on me! You've got one of the most eleglble men in the city wild about you. I've nev er seen old Tom like this before about a girl." "Oh that's Imagination," Ar deth began to stammer. She re fused to meet the other's eyes. "Don't be coy!" said Mary Easterwood severely. "And don't fence with me! I know what it is to work and to be poor too. I hope you're not going to be a fool, Ardeth." "Why what do you mean?" The wide amber eyes came up to rest on Mary's steady dark gaze and there was a glint of fear in the girl's look. Mary shrugged. Her voice was kindly. "You know what I mean. I'm afraid those cards are stack ed. Ardeth! No! Don't ask me anything further; I've talked too much as it is! Let's talk about clothes. Dress warmly; you'll need hiking things If you.'re going to have any fun in the snow." Her last words were lost on the girl.

If I'm right, I'll try to comfort you. No! Not another word. We understand each oth er. And I do riot gossip, Ardeth Carroll!" The warm, hearty voice held a badgered note as though Mary Easterwood were in a panic for saying so much The memory of this was a bit ter secret in Arleth's heart. That night, lying in her small, lark room, high above the city Ar deth'a lips moved noisily in the dark. "I'm afraid those cards are stacked If I'm right. I'll comfort you." Ah. she understood dear Mary Easterwood! Perhaps before her marriage, she too had known this ache of uncertainty. Perhaps she too had fought phantom fears be fore she landed the big brown Fred safe in the net of matrimony. A wry little smile touched Ar deth's Hps in the dark. Women They spoke of the new freedom.

If I hadn't promised Mary to take her and the girls up Friday I'd wait over a day." Ardeth never ceased to won der that Jeanette permitted her to stay away from the shop on Saturday. It was not natural for Jeanette to be big-hearted with out cause. The truth lay in Jeanette's hid den spite for Cecile. Cecile was not invited on this party. It would irritate her to learn that a mere nobody like Ardeth Carroll was invited on a house party which also included Ken Gleason. If a thing caused Cecile irritation, that was sufficient reasons for Jean ette carrying it through. She was sweeny gracious to Ardeth. A Joyful dream to he leaving in the middle of the morning!

Even these. some of them, are chiming in on the salty swan song; a suicidal gesture against what should be soon and will be ultimately, the greatest permanent Oregon in dustry. S And some who wanted better protection for field seeds, against those raised In countries with low priced labor and lands. m And so it goes, down the list of the growers of practically ev ery agricultural product we have or ehould have in this state. Where is their gratitude, the noblest of human virtues? There is nothing of sincerity in the salty flow. It is all hooey. The democrats were with the re publicans on the tariff question in the last presidential campaign for the first time since it be came a political question, at the behest of the cotton growers of the south raising their product with slave labor, whose market was in England, and who wanted cheap goods from the foreign mills, without respect to the ef fect upon home manufactures. If a democrat should be elected to take Hawley's place, he would immediately line up with the producers to demand protection for each group. He would find plenty of good excuses. It has al ways been so. It was so, to the last man. in the course of tbe consideration of the Hawley tar iff bill. "m All the southern members of both houses of congress were loud in demanding protection for their own constituents. S Now, for political effect, they are painting the law they helped to frame in the blackest colors they knew how to dope out. S There Is no sense in the tar iff matter being In politics. It is not in politics in any other coun try. It is an economical ques tion. Congressman Hawley deserves the vote of every man of his dis trict who has any kind of a stake in it. That means all the votes. He did the best he could for his district; with the urging of every one in any way interested In the things we have or grow. If your memory is not short, and if you have any gratitude in your heart, vote for Hawley. Most of you will of course. s s s The Bits man does not have to tell any one who knows him that he is a republican. But he is go ing to vote for one democrat this time. He is Supreme Judge O. P. Coshow. Why? Because he is an able judge. And an honest man. And an upright and useful citi zen, and a helper in all Rood works, which has been his record all his life. V V And another reason: There should b no politics in the cases of candidates for the supreme bench. There is none In Washing ton. Over there, it is like Salem city offices. It should be so iu Oregon. ". " S This Is saying nothing against the republican candidate. But if every one who sees the matter as the Bits man does will vote for Judge Coshow, irrespective of politics, it will go a long way to wards having Oregon adopt the same rule that holds In Washing ton. Oh, yes; the right title for a supremo Judge Is associate jus tice, and for the senior member of the court, chief justice. That is what O. P. Coshow is. But mot readers understand better . the. simple word judge. A DOCTOR'S ADVICE for Stubborn Bowels Drink at least six glasses of wa rier daily preferably before meals. Eat bulkier foods, such as vegetables, fruits and coarse breads. Use a mild laxative as needed." That is Dr. Caldwell's advice to people with stubborn bowels. He specialized on the bowels; treated thousands for constipa tion and its ills. The prescrip tion he used over and over in his practice has become the world's most popular laxative! "Syrup Pepsin," as It is now called, was tested by more than 47 years of practice. Today you can get Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin at any drug store in America. It is always the same; made exactly accord ing to the original prescription, from laxative herbs, pure pepsin and other valuable ingredients. Nothing in it to hare even a baby. It does not gripe, sicken or cause any discomfort. But it moves the bowels; it gets rid of all the souring waste which clogs the system; makes you bilious, headachy, gassy, bloated, weak, half-sick. A doctor should know what is best for the bowels. Syrup Pepsin is a famous doc tor's choice of a safe, pleasant, effective laxative for men, wonj en, older folks, babies and chil dren. Da. W. B.
