At the Republican Direct Pri­
mary on Friday, May 15, 1914.
He has gained a high standing and
useful experience in Congress, which
is at the service of every locality in
the District.
He freely and gladly does all that can
be done for every man, woman and
child In the District who makes a re­
quest. and has aided thousands.
When Congress Is not in session, he
spends the time going over the Dis­
trict, learning its needs and the wishes
of the people.
Members of the Rivers and Harbors
Committee have said that he knows
more about the waterways in his Dis­
trict and presents their merits more
effectively than any other who ap­
pears before them.
FOUR PER CENT of the WHOLE
amount appropriated in the present
Rivers and Harbors bill Is for this
District.
He has already
secured over
$4,000,000 for waterways, buildings
and other public purposes and will add
to that at this session over $2,000,000
more, which is an average of over
$870,000 per year.
HE IS JUST AS DILIGENT, PER­
SISTENT AND SUCCESSFUL IN
A L L OTHER MATTERS PROMOT­
ING THE W ELFARE OF THE PEO­
PLE AND THE COUNTRY.
A VOTE FOR HIM IS A VOTE FOR
A FAITHFUL. INDUSTRIOU8, HON­
EST, able and effective public ser­
vant.
Congress being now in session, he
leaves his candidacy In the hands of
the voters, to whom he is profoundly
grateful, while he serves their inter­
ests In Washington.
He will appreciate alj that Is said
and done In his behalf.

Republican
The Republican« of Oregon are en
titled to have a Republican named as
the National Republican Committee
man from this State. C. W. Ackerson,
who claims to be a Republican, is a
candidate. He registered as a Progres
give January 8. 1914 Then signed peti­
tion of H. W. Coe to be Progresalve
National Committeeman. Then can­
celled hta registration as a Progres­
sive and registered as a Republican
and Immediately filed his candidacy
for membership on Republican Nation
al Committee. Has been an Intimate
and convenient understudy of the Pro­
gressive National Committeeman and
teems now to be in combination with
him in an attempt to shanghai the
Republican organization. Hit candi­
dacy is being actively backed by par­
ties hostile to the Republican party
and having personal Interests and pri­
vate personal grudges to serve. His
erratic aMi excitable temperament has
frequently led him to flood the col­
umns of the press with violent attacks
upon the Republican party and vicious
personal abuse of prominent Republi­
cans and life-long residents of the
State.
It is a grave abuse for parties who
are not Republican to register as such.
It la a graver abuse for outsiders to
attempt the capture of a political par­
ty to gratify a personal grudge and
to promote party discord. It Is an
abuse against which fair minded men
of all parties will rise In protest. We
can never have a reunited party by
pushing to the front political hotheads
and men who are political reformers
simply for the take of office. Having
been a Republican only twenty-four
hours when he announced bis candi­
dacy for the highest honorary position
In the gift of the party, Is some Indi­
cation of what Mr. Ackerson's motive
was in registering as a Republican.
As Hon. Ralph E. Williams Is the only
Republican who Is a candidate for
Republican National Committeeman,
we feel warranted in urging ail loyal
Republicans in the state to give him
their earnest and enthusiastic support.
