In the last pres idential polls, be has hit the bolls eye 1B-: times., missing only the first year he compiled a set: of statistics That was the first time Bryan ran against HcKinley. Speer wasn't quite old enough-to vote, but that campaign turned him, son of a right staunch dem ocrat, to the republican fold, where he has since remained. "Despite all the talk of switch lnz to Roosevelt in the campaign, I believe 80 out of every 100 re publican votes in Oregon will be marked for Hoover Toesday, Speer commented yesterday, "For man's political party is about as hard for him to give up as his re ligion." . Speer says, too, that the farm er knows, whether he will admit it or not, that the same economic problems which keep the business man in the Hoover column are the same economic reasons that will ' keep the farmer there. No New Issue Help "How do I arrive at my fig- ures? Well, partly from the fact ; that there is not a single issue in the present campaign that has not come up at least once in persist : ent form In the presidential cam paigns I have studied and figured right." And partly from the law of averages." Speer said. "When the issues in this cam paign became essentially finan ces, credit, fiat money or whatever you . want to call it, t knew that three times the populace cheered and hurrahed for Bryaa then went against him strong at the polls. So it ,1a today. A month ago people didn't realise the economic significance In this campaign." New York, with largest elector al rote, Speer has figures as fol lows: Roosevelt will lack 10 per cent of polling as many as Smith In 12S and Hoover wilt gain 10 per cent over last election on the economic question; but Hooves' will lose 15 per cent of the vote of last election on account of dis- NEVER HEARD OF DEPRESSION A.

California, with the largest increase of popu lation since the last electoral col lege change, will go heavily for Hoover. The population Increase there is around Los Angeles, a heavy republican center and anti Smith. "The last month has shown Hoover as a campaigner and po litical leader so different from conception of him that he arouses the Interest of the American voter just as much as a new leader.

All don't are wrong. The ten com mandments are wrong. Our young people are learning murder sim ply because it Is forbidden. What we must do is to decrease mur dering by making it so easy that people will not want to do it. But the increased murdering will BRING BACK PROSPERITY BECAUSE of the greater need for flowers, caskets and cemeteries. and greater employment for un dertakers and manufacturers of weapons. The government will benefit, and taxes will be lowered because it can le vy a high amuse ment tax on murdering. Billions In taxes will be raised, yet the price or nurderine will be within the reach of all! The govern meat will save huge sums on the enforcement of the murder laws, and yet no government employe need fear, because we can keep as many or more men at work in the administration of the regula tions. Thus everybody will win. Besides, think of the firearms manufacturers who have gone heavily into the business, expect ing to be able to put this plan across, and wno mar not get rich If it fails.

There will be large Btaffs of officers to inspect all cases, to determine the nature of the murder, see that . the means of death were govern ment-approved, and collect the tax. If it does not seem too dif ficult to enforce them, we will pass laws regulating murder on the highways and In public places, and operating against in dividuals who do not desire to pay the tax, or who kill in unap proved manners, or without per mits. Of course, if these laws are hard to enforce, they will hare to. be repealed. In any case. PEOPLE MUST HAVE THEIR FUN. What do a few lives mat ter T H. L.
