HIS WORST MISTAKE
Probably one of the worst mistakes
in the Chamberlain campaign was the
claim made by the Governor himself
that he is entitled to the credit for the
enactment of the corporation-tax law
and the Inheritance-tax law, which
have brought considerable sums of
money into the state treasury from in
direct sources, Bays Tuesday's Ore
gonian. This claim Chamberlain has
made not only from the stump, but in
pamphlets which are being sent to
every voter in the state. Chamberlain
has suffered from the effects of this,
because it is well known, and is proven
by the records, that Chamberlain had
nothing whatever to do with this legis
lation.
His claims have lost him some con
fidence among Democrats, for it is
well known that a prominent Republi
can worked for several weeks on one
of these bills before the Legislature
met and helped draft the bill that was
Introduced. Both the measures were
Introduced by Republican members
before Govornor Chamberlain had
been inaugurated, and therefore, be
fore he had uttered a word upon the
subject. It Is, therefore, utterly im
possible that Chamberlain could have
had anything to do with the onact
mentof this legislation.
Finding that he has at the very In
ception of his campaign laid claim to
credit where he Is entitled to none, the
people are Inclined to look with sus
picion upon some of his other claims.
Linn county has audited the ex
pense of holding the direct primary
election there, and finds that every
vote cast cost the county within a few
cents of one dollar. The state pays a
part of the expense, hence it is asserted
that the votes cost a dollar each. The
convention system was conducted with
out expense to the county or state.
Rosoburg News.
The best of feeling prevails in the
Republican ranks in Polk county this
year and there seems a general desire
to elect the ticket from top to bottom.
Republicans do not have to be urged
to "vota it straight" this year.
"A united party" Is the Republican
slogan this year, and it's going to be
a winner.

Corrects Mis-statements.
Charles E. Sumner, President of the
Home Telephone Company of Port
land, Oregon, writes to C. II. Morris,
manager of the Dallas mutual tele-
phono exchange the following self-
explanatory letter:
'It has been reported to me that
some one has circulated the report in
your community that the Home Tele
phone Company of this city, which is
now constructing the Automatic sys
tern in Portland and al30 independent
plants throughout tho valley, Is not
acting In good faith and Is irrespon
sible. I wish to assure you and to
relieve your mind from any effect this
may have, that the Home telephone
companies of Washington and Ore
gon are hero to stay. They are pre
pared to construct plants and to opor
ate them to tho satisfaction of the
people. No credit should be given to
any irresponsible statements as to our
condition or what we are doing. All
wish iu tho matter is a 'square
deal' for telephone business, and we
re in a position to get this."
