FATHER AND SON
A son as candidate for office and his father strug­
gling to defeat him, is a spectacle in Minnesota. Merle
Birmingham is an independent candidate for senator on
a beer and wine platform. His father is the Reverend
Thomas C. Birmingham of Nebraska. The father has ad­
dressed an open letter to the voters of Minnesota, asking
them to defeat his son Any normal father can sense the
sickening feeling with which the father wrote that letter
¿nd of the son in reading it.
HERE’S THE REASON
A New York farmer shipped 26 bushels of peas to
New York city.
P
The peas sold for $13. The freight was $7.14. The
cartage was $1.82. The fee for the commission merchant
was $1.30. The farmer got the rest, $2.74.

We find that this evidence substantiates the claim
that many millions of dollars have been diverted from in­
vestment in Oregon industries that would provide a home
market for Oregon agricultural products. • '
AVe find the damage is so serious and of such extent
that we appeal to our neighbors and to voters in all parts
of Oregon to vote lor the repeal ot the present income
tax and to oppose the enactment of any new state income
tax hill, at least until such time as the other Pacific Coast
stymies have enacted similar legislation so they cannot
grow at Oregon’s expense.
We do not object to paying a state income tax, but
we do object to imposing a tax that keeps capital out of
oui state, retards state development and tends to leave
our farmers dependent upon distant markets.
M e resent the tendency to give Oregon the reputa­
tion ot being a backward state.” Oregon’s resources
and the courage and enterprise of her pioneer people en­
title her to a great destiny. Let us all join hands to rid
Oregon of legislation that handicaps Oregon development.

RELAXATION VS. AGE
A recent news dispatch tells us that 'John D. Rocker-
feller, past 80, still hale and hearty, attributes his good
health to his ability to relax. The moment his work is
done, Rockerfeller explains, lie can loosen every muscle
in his body, resting them, and adding a reserve strength
to carry him through his next undertaking.
Rockerfeller, in his short statement, sums up the
leal reason for the health of a number of virile, hearty

lo u r writer once worked with a newspaper man, well
past sixty years, who was as vigorous as the youngest
cub on the staff. Relaxation, in the most perfect form,
was his only exercise, other than the walking required
in Ins work, and this old newspaper man, working in a
profession generally acknowledged to he one of the most
nerve racking known, was appartnetly as voung as the day
he started.
