. We know that Senator Patterson is not unmind
ful of the responsibility the Governor’s office carries
with it. He eo exprssed himself today, and when he
says a thing he has the art of saying it in such a
way that leaves no doubt as to his sincerity. We liked
the frankness of the man when he said, “ I hope to
reduce taxes some, but any man who says they can
be cut in half is chasing rainbows.” The ordinary
p«yitical office seeker would have held out an alluP-
jng promise of greatly lowered taxes without any
logical plan for its aoeomplifchaient, jnst to gamer
a few vptes. But Senator Patterson is not that tyjie.
He promises a business administration, he pledges
minself to give the same attention to affairs of state,
ae he haa g iven to his private business. Ip this lie
has been successful aud there is every right to feel the
state of Oregon, will receive tile same treatment with
tfct Senator at the helm of state affairs. We are glad

favor at the hands of the people Oh election day.

Senator 1. H. Patterson, Republican gubernator
ial nominee.spent a f$w hours in Ashland yesterday,
and addressed ^ui impromptu luncheon attended by
nearly forty people. While this attendant ordinar
ily would not be considered significant, It v a s so re-
garded yesterday when it is 4tnown 'that the lunch
eon was not planned nor executed until about two
hours before the Republican supporters gathered
around the festive board. That it was possible by.
haflty telephone messages and personal calls to secure
title number of representative citizens to drop their
daily work and attend a gathering of this kind, in
dicates an unusual interest, in the candidate and the
part}' he represents. It is indicative also, of the fact
that local people are inclined (6 take seriously the
party and the standard bearers of that party. They
want to know who he is and wnat he stands for, and
what can reasonably be expected in the way of admin-
igtration o f their affairs.
It ¿s interest of this kind that makes better
government possible. It is interest of this kind that
should prove inspirational to those who seek to serve
the type of people who greeted the Republican nom
inee yesterday. They should feel keenly the re-
spoiisibility that is an- integral part of every public
office, when they are met by as appreciative and
representative gathering as greeted Senator Patter-
