H. Boardman is working at 'Ashland. When Mi Boardman was here a few days ago, ho spoke enthusiastically of Senator Pierce and is doin;; all be can to help Petrce campaign. Senator Fierce is to speak here soon. Below is the article as it appeared in the East Ore-, gonlan i Portland, Ore., Sept. 29, Jesse Winburn, of Ashland, won to the cause of Waller M. Pierce by an ad dress made by him in the Southern Oregon town, lias sent his check for $5,000 to the Democratic state head quartets for use in the gubernatorial campaign. Winburn la a man of means who after making a fortune in street car advertising in New York came t.) Southern Oregon to live, settling rtl Ashland it was announced at one t nil ,that he contemplated the erec tion of a large hotel at that point. In his letter to Senator Fierce, ac companying the check, Winburn says "I am an eastern man who has come to Oregon to live, because here I find In Hie climate, the scenery and the soil an environment that appeals to me strongly. 1 came with the in tention of making an investigation in an enterprise of considerable mag nitude, but upon investigation, I find that the taxes are so heavy on the contemplated investment as to make the profits on it highly problemat ical. Ah a matter of fact, taxes in Oregon, based on population, (are higher and its bonded indebtedness larger, I am told, than In any other slate in the Union, "Recently 1 heard you speak in Ashland on the subject of taxation, and your sound reasoning, your common sense views your proposals for the equalization and reduction of taxation and your general policies impressed me pro foundly, 1 could see how, if you were elected governor and your pol icies carried out, ihe great stale of Oregon could be relieved of the lax burden it now carried Particularly was I impressed with Ihe frank and open manner in which you publicly discussed the situation lhat now exists. "The result of it all Is that I have resolved to support your candidacy for governor, and as an evidence of my sincerity I enclose a check for $5,000 to be used in your campaign expenses. I want to see Oregon grow, anl the way to make it grow is to re duce taxes to the point where new comers will find II advantageous to settle here. Where taxation is great, enterprise declines, and where the cost of government is heavy, new comers slay away nnd old settlers Often go where conditions are morf favorable. '"Putting you In the governor's chair means putting my taxes down and I am Just selfish enough to rote to I hat end "I well knnw lhat an administra tion which has increased taxation to the point now reached in Oregon is not the administration to put tax ation down. So I favor a change, and I believe that a change in governor ship to Walter M Pierce will do two things: "Increase ihe population "Decrease taxation. "That is win 1 am for you and why I hope you will accept my con tribution." An interesting feature of the Win burn ease is thai up to the time of Mr. Pierce's speech in Ashland Win burn bad been a supporter of Gover nor Olcolt and is said to have made a 600 contribution to lh oirott fund.
