FIRS! BALLOT Í# tOORl^ R ustic \ SB» j SENATOR LA FOLLETTE’S VIEWS Over fifty years ago—away back about 1850-5—a very considerable proportion of the pioneer settlers of Lane county and the Willamette valley came the "plains across'* from Mis souri. And from many personal acquaintances we know they were good people. There are few of them left, very few. But won't that statement of Governor-elect Hadley ,of Missouri, that there are ten million acres of uncultivated land there capable of cultivation, for which settlers are wanted, surprise you? Following is the way Senator LaFoUette talks of the Oregon senatorial situation in his new magasins: "Thornton Haines is on trial for advising the commission of a crime, and Frank Hitchcock, who is also widely accused of ad vising the commission of a crime, is guilty of one equally heinous. "It is said Hitchcock has actively endeavored to induce the legislators of Oregon to violate their promise to support the can -1 The Guard'a year book will be iaaued early next week, and we didate for the United States senatorship receiving the most votes confidently say, judging from the firat forma that have come at the primaries.

In view of cally arranged for in advance of publication the impossibility of legal vindication it would seem that he can do no loss than deny the aspersion. * A California judge granted a divorce on the complaint of the wife that hubby would not talk back to her.
