Glen Fabrick
Democratic Candidate For Represen­
tative From Jackson County
d
A resident taxpayer, land owner, and business, man
of Jackson County 16 years. A trained business
man.
Favors direct primary. Opposed to Dennis resolu­
tion. Favors strict econmy, but not at expense of
necessary state and educational institutions.
When it eomes to applying the Supreme
test to character there are a few old-fa Aliened
English words that must be considered
honor, sportsmanship, patritbsm, loyalty, ttsad-
fastness, courage. An individual who chart«,»,
his courage in life by these words cannot
come to shipwreck. The nation or party that
iilscribes these imperishable words op it« ban­

and emblem can never perish.

In the republican primary of May 21st, r
1926 Senator Robert N. Stanfield, failed of re-
n omi nation. He Was defeated by FrederiA
Steiwer of Pendleton by about 10,000 votes.
The primary was fair and open. SteiweT’s ■
victory was decisive and was accepted in good“*
faith as snch by all of his primary opponents‘‘ ‘
save one.

Before Senator Stanfield left Washington
friends in Jackson County wired him urging
that he .make public announcement that ho <
had. no intention of running as an independ­
ent and that he expected to loyally support the
regular nominee of his party. It was pointed
out to him that any other course would be
dishonorable and unsportsmanlike in the ex­
treme. But it was no use—the Senator seepr .
ed determined to make no definite decision
until after reaching home apd advising with? |*
friends. We all know the sequel. He at ones* *
fell into the hands f»f the Journal crqwd, wh<& Y

reputation of being political mercenaries. The
Senator received liis" independent nomination
from a hand-picked convention held at the
Portland Hotel, as aimoiinced through the
public press, on admission tickets issued bv

Mw remefas 2 prefer to comply with and

The holding of snch conventions and the
indorsement df candidates thereby might be
subversive of the present primary law.'
Oftentimes inch conventions w e n called,
packed and controlled in the interest of can­
didates whose. nomination add election was
destréd by selfish interests seeking privileges
through selection of men servile to their
wishes.
That was the enrse of the old conventions
and it is no lees a danger in conventions held
without sancetion of law” — U. 8. Senator
Robt. N. Stanfield, March 2ft, 1920.
Isn’t this a corker when read in the light
of what transpired at the Portland Hotel a few
wpeks Ago when a programmed convention*
named Stanfield as an independent candidate
for Senator!
After being defeated in a fair primary by
10,000 votes the entrance of Senator Stanfield
into the Oregon senatorial race through the
back door of a packed and fixed convention
makes one wonder if stronger words than sub­
terfuge and hypocrisy should not be coined
to better describe the performance.
This talk of the Oregonian dictating' the
nomination of Steiwer is pure deception on the
part of the Senator and his crowd.
Let uS i^e'tio 'weasel woçls iii this mat­
ter. Senator Stanfield has bolted his party and
has delivered a body blow to the direct pri­
mary’. He is out to divide, disrupt and de­
feat the party that nominated and elected him
in 1920. He is now flouting the organization
that lifted him from obscrurity and placed
him in a position of jiowef, prerogative and
honor, and his conncellors and advisors are
as selfish a hunch of political pot hunters as
ever betrayed a trust.

Tlie best, or rather the worst that Senator
Stanfield can hope to accomplish by his inde­
pendent candidacy is to divide the republican
vote, thereby bringing about the possible elec­
tion of a Portland lawyer by the name of Bert
“ THE INTERESTS OF JACKSON COUNTY ARE
HIS INTERESTS.”

more’»important and 'far reaching than the
mero selection of a senator. If Stanfield can
get away with this independent candidacy, '
no decent, self-respecting man or woman will
hereafter aspire to or seek the barren and
questionable honor of A party primary nom­
ination in Oregdn. Don’t let any republican
flatter himself With the belief that he ean
bolt the lawful notainee of his party and vote
for Stanfield without Violating every principle
of honor, sportsmanship and American fair
play.

An amendment to our election laws en­
acted by the 1919 legislature reads:
,
. That any candidate for office if defeated
for nomination in the primary nominating
election wf the political party with which he
is affiliated shall he prohibited from accept­
ing the nomination of any other political
party, OR OF BECOMING AN INDEPEND-
ENT CANDIDATE at the mxsuing election.
We suppose every poor loser in a primary
battle can find satisfying reasons why this law •
should not apply to his case, but the spirit
and intent of the law is clear. It was enacted ’
to stand as a guarantee to (he man who en-
tered his Ejarty primary in good faith that his
bard and fairly won victory would be pro­
tected against revengeful bush-whacking and
political banditry.

Senator Strfhfidd ih Chis pre-primary- lit" fc
erature w'enl ouFof his way to warn represen­
tative republican county conventions that he
did not want their endorsement and he pro­
claimed fnllsoine devotion to the Oregon di­
rect primary. Here are his words—
“ My friends will best observe my wishes
by withholding my name from consideration
at any and all conventions. The present law
of Oregon provides for Selection of party can­

President’s request for bis resignation from

Opportune for him to desert his post of duty
and beat it back to Oregon, to become a demo­
crat^ candidate for the United States Senate.
When the acid test of honor, sportsman-
ship and loyalty is applied, the senator stands
revealed as unworthy of republican support.
The Test Applied to Steiwer
Fred Steiwer was born in Oregon of not
able pioneer ancestry. He is a graduate of both
the Oregon Agricultural College and of the
University of Oregon. The testimony of Jack-
son county men who were his classmates and
who played on football teams with him give
him a fine» ratiug for honor and generous
s|*ortsmanship.
Seventeen years ago Steiwer located' in
Pr'.’dleton, tTmatilla cohnty, and established
liiinself in the practice of law. He nerved
Umatilla county as .depnty district attorney,
then was elected to that office for a four-
yoar term. In 191ft he Was elected state sena­
tor. When war was declared by this country
in 1917, although above the draft age, with a
wife and phild, he waived all exemption rights,
resigned hig seat in the state senate, volun­
teered his services to his country, was com­
missioned a First lieutenant; was sent over-

law at Ptendleton, also engaged in farming on
rather a large scale, and on May 21st of this
year he received the republican nomination
for United States Senator by 10,000 votes over
his nearest competitor.
Umatilla cohnty, where Fred Steiwer has
lived fbr 17 years, and where Senator Stapfield
Was bom and raised, gave Steiwer a three to
otic vote over Stanfield. That is an indication
of what his neighbors think of him, and you
Can’t fool ygur neighbors. In his student
days, and in civil life he'stood the test of
b/rior and Sportsmanship and steadfastness.
Ill serving his country, in Camp, and on the
battlefield, he stood the test of patriotism, loy­

The greatest stabilising influence in an
uncertain world today is this republican ad­
ministration with President Coolidge at the
heltn. Did it ever occur to you that we are
the only nation in the world today that is
steadily reducing its national taxes and liqui­
dating the national indebtedness T The man
who is responsible for this extraordinary con­
dition neçiis republicans in the United States
senate to support him—not demoerhts, inde­
pendents, non-partisans or bush-whackers. Let
every voter in Jackson county settle this ques­
tion with himself on a point of honor and of
sportsmanship, and of fair play — giving that
full consideration always as to what are the
highest and best interests of his state and his
nation.
