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.

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

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.

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

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

Her last words were lost on
the girl. Ardeth was watching

to comfort you. No! Not another
word. We understand each oth

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

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

some of them, are chiming in on
the salty swan song; a suicidal
gesture against what should be

greatest permanent Oregon in

And some who wanted better

those raised In countries with
low priced labor and lands.

And so it goes, down the list
of the growers of practically ev

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

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

was in England, and who wanted
cheap goods from the foreign
mills, without respect to the ef

If a democrat should be elected
to take Hawley's place, he would
immediately line up with the

for each group. He would find
plenty of good excuses. It has al

iff bill.

All the southern members of
both houses of congress were
loud in demanding protection for
their own constituents.

Now, for political effect, they
are painting the law they helped
to frame in the blackest colors
they knew how to dope out.

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.

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. Caldwell's
