He pointed out many switches Hughe had made In the campaign In his efforts to find a popular Issue, picturing him as arising each morn lng and kneeling by his bedside prayerfully saying. "Give us this d:y our daily Issue." He declared the Hughes campaign has been a frank disappointment . to many people through the lack of deflniteness ol his promises. "He reminds me of a horse I once knew," said the senator. "He runs better with his mouth shut than open." However, he said, Hughes has been In a precarious po sition, trying to please both standpat and progressive elements with his talks. Discussing the attempts the repub licans are making to secure the wo man vote, he declared they were of fering the women a colossal gold brick. "If they are so eager to enfranchise women," he said, "why did they with hold the boon during It vears they were In power.

Brooke Points Out Advantages From Having School Located In Town of Some Slse. From all over the state local peo ple are receiving letters Indicating that the normal school letter writing campaign is proving effective. Dist rict Attorney Stelwer today received the following typical communication from a friend, W. H. Brooke of Mal heur county Dear Mr. 8telwer: I believe that eastern Oregon should have a Nor mal school, and that such a school should be located In a town of some size on the main line of the railroad. Where a school is located In a small place, It Is difficult to obtain proper accommodations for those at tending the school, and the town be comes practically a school town, where the students are secluded from ordinary worldly affairs, and hence the tendency is to narrow rather than enlarge their mental horizon. In a larger town they receive not only the advantages of their school training, but also have an opportunity to wit ness and take part In larger affairs along economic, social and political lines, and thereby their training be comes of larger and more Important value. I consider Pendleton an ideal town for the location of such a school, for the reason that It is one of the larger towns of eastern Oregon, centrally lo cated so far as railroad facilities are concerned, has an excellent climate, and,a high class citizenship: besides affording as good an opportunity as any town In eastern Oregon for the students there to witness, take pert in. and become familiar with the affairs of the world in general, and matters of public importance. For these reasons I am pleased to do what I can to lend my support to the Pendleton Normal School BllL With kind personal recard, I am Yours very truly. W. H. BROOKE.
