I Lturday Evening, April 13, 1918. EUGENE DAILY GUARD. Pace Three. E TO E secretary of Treasury Makes Plea for Rural Population to Buy Bonds. : Chairman It. A. Booth Thursday night ecelved, through Edward (Jookingbam, jecutlve chairman of the Btntc central .iborty Loan committee, the following incBsage to ine rumi n-muuuiB ui iae ountry, from Secretary of the Treas- :ry McAdoo: To the rural residents of America it matter , of supreme national import- nre that the treasury of the United states shall be supplied at all times with he amount 01 money neeacu 10 lurmsn he food, the clotning, tne guns, the am' nnition required oy our soiaiers to iglit successfully for the safety and lib- rty of America, 10 pay me allowances ude by the government to the depend ent wives and children of these soldiers lad to pay the life Insurance which the lovernment permits every soldier to buy rrom it. xne ireunury iuubi msu uuve he necessary money to extend credit to valiant Britons, French, Belgians nd Italians who are fighting alongside kmerlcan soldiers on the bloody battle- elds of France, Belgium and Italy; If he American people fail to lend their honey to their government for these no- Lie purposes how can we gain, a victory this glorious cause. Everyone can help lending their money to the govern ment. . "They do not make a , g(ft of their boney. Xlicy merely icnu it on lmpreg- lable security and are paid interest on she loan. At the same time the farmers the nation can render genuinely pa- riotic service by lending all the money key can to their government and encour- ee everybody else to do tne samo. It Lakes no difference how small the loan, will be helpful. Those who can only iny tnrltt stamps Bnouia ouy tnrire itamns. Those who can buy only war Living stamps- should buy war savings lamps. Those who can buy Liberty onds should buy Liberty bonds. Always hey should buy as many stamps and onds as they can instead of as few. The iovernment has now put theso loans in inch convenient form that there is no ton In the land who can not help to lome extent if he is patriotic enough do so. I rely upon the farmers, than thorn there are not more vitally inter red in protecting Americn's future and he liberty of the world, to do their ut- lost to help in this great Liberty loan Uik. Tho farmers ore already perfora te, patriotic service of the highest value raising the foodstuffs needed by our iwn military forces and citlzenB nt vi.e, by and by the soldiers and civilian kopnlation of the great nations assoclat- d with us: Biit they have a further duty perfoTm. They should invest all of .heir available money, the obligations of lleir government. In doing so they will ot only benefit themselves in having honey but will be helping to defend their Ibcrtics, their tights and their farms gainst the threatened aggressions of the post powerful autocracy . and military overnment ever created. The fanners of the nation tradltiqn- :lly are freedom-loving people. One hun- rcd and forty-three years ago on the Oth of this month the farmers at Lex- bgton and Concord fired the first shot or liberty and it was heard around the orld. I know that the American farm- irs of ioday are just as liberty-loving b their heroic ancestors. I know tbat key will join with other Americans of ery business and profession in pro- iding the money which will enable their overnment to fight to a victorious con- luslon this great war for liberty, jus pee and American sacred rights."

This is part of the daylight laving movement. To the Voters of Lane County: I am offering my nome for renomina tion to the office which I have filled for the past twelve years because I think I can do more as a member of the legisla ture, both to help win the war, and to advance the cause of democracy than in any other position now open to me. I will therefore present to the voters a legislative program intended alike to speed up the production of tkosj things nnon which the wnr is dependent, and to protect those -industries temporarily injured by the war. This urogram will Include; A change In the highway law, by which Tfi ner cent of the state's money bos been spent, on scenit highways and oi roods ruuning in and out of Portland. The repeal of such useless and burden some laws as the Publication of the Do linquent Tax List, and the $40,000 State Advertising Act. A state classification of. farm hinds flhroueh departments now established) to protect the prospective farmer and future immigrant from speculator and land sharks. The distribution of labor, by whicn the man and the job can find ea-;'n other In -the shortest time at the least ex pense. , Better state facilities for the prelimi nary training of men foe the war. And last but by no means leiuc, pro vision for the boys, upon their return home, free education and training; lor the work of their choice, with good londs and equipment, and capital on generous terms, to enable them to becoms produc ers.'..";.' '.''' .' ' I am entering this campaign also to meet and destroy tho lies that have baen publicly and privately circulated agiiiust me. since last fall, when, under cover of the Eugene commercial club, aud in the name' of patriotism, an attack wos made against me, intended t- destroy my personal and,political influence,, and render me useless for luture puoiic ser vice. After making full ollowanco for the sincere people who were drawn Into this movement, it still remains tho most un fair, vindictive and shameful polilii-al nersecution ever carried out in this com- mumtv. Not one word or act of mine could be proved disloyal but taking ad vantage of a widespread prejumco against a meeting which I attended in Chicago, my enemies have tried to make me the victim of all that has been cnargea nrainBt that organls-Ulon, although my own connection with It was siicii: ana al together honorable. I think this meeting was sincere but ill-advised; I thing the sunoresslon of it wrong. Where the mi nority has no voice there is na demo- rrncv. At the one session wtttfn I at tended there was no attack upon the Government. Had there been, 1 suouid have opposed it; as it was, I took no part In the meeting and since my return home I have had no connection with tne or- eanlzation. As to my iatrl.itlsm, thero has nevtr been the least question. My position on the war, despite the lies circulated by my nolitical enemies.has never Been equivocal From its very Dcgiunmj, i nave oevn n careful student of the war, and I have never been neutral n my i. :art. l nave never been a pacifist except in the sense that President Wilson is a pacllst. He represents more than any world stnies mnn mv attitude toward the war. I be lieve him to he the grent hope of liberty throuihout the world. Since we entered U. I have alwav maintained that ft patch ed up peace wouia De a calamity, am to try to find those thing wmcn win en rlrhteous and, if possible, a per manent pesce, I consider, the duty of every citizen of a truo democracy. - With this explanation I must respect fnllv decline to favor my political opto- nents with any further discussion' of the question of my patriotism. I shall during the campaign confine myself to the real motives which lie back of this persecu- I have been a member of the House of Representatives during the sessions of 1007, 1000," 1011, 1013, 1015 and 1017.
