The News desires to state, however, that it has no apologies to offer for any of the eaudi lates so pre sented to tin- final choice of tin- public, ami that its sole regret consists of lack of space ami time to properly dis cuss the merits of the Demoeratie nominees in detail.

E. Whisler, republican nominee for Joint Representative of Jackson and Douglas counties. Care fully worded as this late appeal to the voters is, it betrays the nature of the Whisler candidacy. Mr. Whisler is a reactionary. He favors the restriction of the Initiative by amendment which will render it an unfit instrument for popular voice. lie is a sworn enemy to Equal Suffrage amendment, and believes that tin- women of Oregon are incapable of citizenship. He is a champion of lien Selling, standpat nominee for United States senator, lie is a friend of the old order of things, a conservative of con servatives—pledged to the program of Taft in nation, state and county.
