Polk County Observer
J. O. HAYTER,
EDITOR AND PUBU8HEH,
Published Semi-Weekly at 11.60 per
Tear. Strictly In advance. ,
Entered as second-class matter
March 1. 1907, at the post office at
Dallas, Oregon, under the Act of Con
gress of March 8, 1879.

spect for Frank Benson because he
views the matter as he d oes.
It matters not whether there are
one, two or five candidates against
Benson for secretary of state, we be
lieve that the people are for him and
will renominate and re-elct him. They
could not do better.
State Superintendent Visits.
Superintendent of Instruction J. H.
Ackerman passed through Dallas, Sat
urday, on his way home from Falls
City, where he had bon attending an
Educational Rally. Mr. Ackerman re
ports a highly successful meeting in
Polk County's live lumber town. The
attendance was fair, and much Inter
est was taken in the various papers
and discussions. Lunch was served by
the teachers and the ladies of the community.
A VICIOUS MEASURE
Once more the Observer desires to
call attention to the proposed amend
ment to the constitution that is to be
submitted to the voters of Oregon for
adoption or rejection next November.
It is proposed to upset the whole plan
of government now In existence by
giving the Governor the exclusive pow
er to appoint all other state officers.
Not satisfied with this radical pro
posal, the constitution tinkers would
go farther and take the election of
district attorneys and sheriffs out of
the hands of the people and give the
Oovernor nower to appoint them
Just think, you good, law-abiding cit
izen, what it would mean to give one
man the sole power to appoint every
BherifT and district attorney In the
state! If the people of Oregon think
they would like to be governed by an
absolute monarch, they have only to
go to the polls at the next election and
make a cross between this amendment
and its number on the ballot.
When the rumor first reached the
public that Mr. U'Ren and his assist
ant were preparing such a revolution
ary and un-American measure, the
voters could scarcely believe their
ears. They did not believe that any
man, or set of men, would have the
temerity to propose such a dangerous
and radical scheme with any hope of
its receiving favorable consideration
Many, Indeed, were inclined to treat
the rumor as a Joke, believing that
the men reported to be behind It would
eventually confess to the people that
they were only testing the credulity
of the Oregon voters. Any such char
itable view, however, was destined
to be swept asido, for the rumor was
soon followed by conllrmation by Mr.
U'Ren, himself, in a statement to the
effect that he and his associates were
very much In earnest In their plans to
place such a measure before the vot
era at the November election. That he
is ready and anxious to carry his plans
to a finish Is evidenced by the recent
mailing of a pamphlet containing ar
gument in support of the amendment
to every voter In the state.
The Observer wishes it might pre
diet that this amendment would not
receive a single vote In Oregon other
than that of Mr. U'Ren, It would ox
press such prediction, were It not for
the fact that other amendments,
equally radical and only a little less
dangerous, emanating from this same
source, have been written into the
constitution of Oregon in the lust few
years. Under existing conditions, we
can only give voice to tho hope that
this latest measure will meet the fate
It so richly deserves.
Fellow Americans, before you vote
for such government think of the
Father of Our Country. Think of Lex
ington and Concord and Bunker 11!!!.
Think of the sufferings and privations
endured by the Revolutionary aires at
Valley Forge. Think of the Declaration
of Independence. Think of Hhlloh and
Antletam and Missionary Ridge. Think
of the martyred Lincoln and his Im
mortal speech at Gettysburg. Think of
that loved father or brother whose
life blood crimsoned the god that a
"government of the people, by Un
people, and for the people" might not
perish from the earth. Think of these
things, and then go to the polls and
bury this proposed revival of foreign
desiMdlsm so deep that no crank or
theorist will ever again bo found at
tempting to make such an absurdity a
part of the fundamental law.
GOVERNOR BENSON.
(Baker City Herald.)
Of all the prbllc oltlclals that Ore
gon has ever had, the present governor
advanced to the ofllce by peculiar cir
cumstances. Is probably nearest a com
moner. Frank W. Benson loves his
Oregon country next to his wife, and
he has that kindly feeling for Its every
citizen which makes him a great man.
lie la possessed of marked qualities of
statesmanship, although he abhors the
plan of calling attention to himself at
any time. Since his Induction into of
flve at Salem things have moved quite
differently than before, because he be
lieves with all of his heart and soul in
republican principles and the republi
can party.
People In Baker City knew of Frank
Rcnaon and had a high regard for him
before he spent two days In Baker last ,
week, but after he had associated with
the Baker people they not only retain
ed the high regard they possessed for
him, but they .ire now willing to go
out and do a little work to ace that he
Is retained In oflice, j
Governor Benson's nnture Is bent Il
lustrated by his attitude on the trover- '
liormhlp. It Hill be remembered that
he was elected to the onVe of secre- i
tary of elate and under Oregon I hot
he succeeded to the governor' chair
because of a vacancy. He ts makini:
good In every way as governor and
many of the members of the party are
demanding his election to the highest
office of the state. But Benson aavt
"no," that he aa elected by the p. ople
to be their secretary of state; that he
la their governor by force of circum
stances, and therefore haa no right to
ask election to that offlce. preferring
to play fairly and run for a second
term a secretary of state.
Few men, yea, we ssy from our
knowledge of politics, that very few
me would hesitate a moment when
they saw it possible lo fill the guberna
torial chair by election. But Benson
has some ronacienttous scrapie In the
mstt.r. Just as every public man who
expects In stand oa his feet in politics
for any tenrth of time, should have.
And hile there la a demand for him
to ran. the repsMicans of Oregon can

It Is economical because It can be quickly turned off when not needed.
With gas or kerosene there is the temptation to li t lislit burn when not
needed to save bother of lighting and adjusting. In some homes the
electric light bills amount to only one or two dollars per month. You
can probubly get some kind ot artificial light for less money than elec
tric light, but does it save you anything when it limits opportunities for
work and recreation ruins your eyesight smokes your walls mars
decorations and increases household work. You could probably save
a dollar tomorrow by going without your meals but It wouldn't be eceon
