"' "' ' ' "
Turn! Hi Back On the Parly That
Mad Him Senator Take On
Bright Yellow Ochre Strtak
Bub Stanfleld hoi at lat com out
of his shell and proclaimed hi in
gratitude toward tho party tht
exalted him to the lofty position of
United States senator. He hat stated
his intention to run a an Independ
ent candidate to succeed himself,
and in' so doing has made the way
easier for the election of tho candi
date of the democrat, Bert Haney.
Ingratitude is a besetting sin. No
one has ever accused our senator of
.having that streak In his makeup.
The friends he made while in con
gress stuck manfully to him during
the primary campaign and worked
for his reelection. That a majority
of the republican party of Oregon
had tired of him was mado manifest
at the polls. Now, listening to the
voice of a few pultroons, who chose
to bolt the purty and who flaunted
a yellow streak, Bob Stanfleld, a
man whom we thought much of, has
taken on a coat of ochro that will be
visible in his makep 10 long as he
habitats Oregon.
Stanfield's decision to make the
run as an independent is given in
a short paragraph in the Oregon
Jounral. He says:
"I expect to accept nomination as
a candidate for United States sena
tor, provided such nomination is ten
dered me prior to" Stptember T, the
hist date for filing acceptance of
same."
The Journal is right in its state
ment that the newa of Stanfield's
decision has been anticipated with
regret by tho Btato republican or
ganization. Not only tho state or
ganization will regret Bob'r action,
but the many friends he has had will
look askance at him hereafter. He
has proved a traitor to the party of
the state; he is playing into the
hands of tho opposition eOd will bo
elected to stay at homo and muc
over the treatment meted those who
bctrav the r fr ont s. We hnve no
use for a man who is not poascsssed
of sufficient manliness to abide by
a popular verdict. Stanfield ia a
poor loser, and whilo ho may con
tribute to tho defeat of Mr. Steler
by running as an independent candi
date his conscience will not permit
him to again proclaim himself a re
publican. Bob, Tho Times is agin you, at the
same time wc pity you. ,

NOTICE TO DELINQUENTS
As the publishers of The Times
we havo been easy with those of
our subscribers who are in ar
rears for their subscriptions. We
have sent out notices but once,
and then arrearages amounted to
over $400.00. Of that amount
lvoi than $60.00 were paid.
Those who are behind in their pa
per know of that fact. Just why
they don't pay we cannot tell.
Fact is, they don't come in and
settle. '
. We do not like to be forever
dunning people; we do not like to
be dunned, and for that reason
strive to keep our bills paid up.
If our delinquent subscribers
would -only realize that it takes
money to run a newspaper; that
the publishers have bill to meet,
and also that they must live,
probably more would come in and
liquidate.
Subscribers to 4 newspaper
must pay their grocers, their
clothiers, their shoe dealers.
They mubt pay for all commodi
ties used and they usually make
an effort to meet those obliga
Hons. Why not consider the
newspaper as a commodity and
keep it paid for? We need the
money and will have to take dras
tic measures to collect arrear
ages. The harvest ia over and a
majority of our delinquents arc
In a position to meet tho little
they owe us. One account docs
not amount to much, but in the
aggregate make to quite a sum.
Bo as honest with us as you are
with your grocer. Come in and
settle your indebtedness. By so
doing you will be helping us and
at the same time enabling us to
give you a better paper. Think
it over, then come in.
Wamic Young Man
' Appendicitis Victim
Brief mention was made In these
columns last week of the death of
Arby G. Magill, son of Mr. and Mrs.
George Magill of Wamic, who
died In the Sell wood hospital as a re
sult of on attack of and operation
for appendicitis on August 23.
Arby Magill was brought up in the
Wamic section. He wa born June
27, 1901, being a little over 25 years
of age at the time of hi death, lie
was married and besides his parents
and other relatives leaves a ' young
widow and an eight-months-old son
to -mourn his untimely passing away.
Arby was stricken August 12 and
was Immediately taken to the hos
pital, where an operation was per
formed the next day. He seemed to
rally from the effects of the oper
ation, but the next day or io an
abeess formed at the seat of trouble
and from then until death overtook
him, tho young man continued to
sink. The body was brought to Wa
mic and the funeral services con
ducted there, Wednesday, August
25, by Revs. Frischkecht and J. I.
I'mker'of Manor, Washington The
body was followed to its last resting
place by a large gathering of sorrow
ing friends and the beir was covered
with f'oral offerings, a last testi
monial of the respect in which de
cedent had been held.
Arby had been associated with
his father in the conduct of tho
ranch. He was a young man of ex
emplary character, honet, industri
ous and a friend to all that knew
him. That his demise has cast a
cloud over the whole Wamic
neighborhood is shown by the many
sympathetic messages of condo
lence received by his sorrowing
parents and young widow.

The prevailing idea that it is

as soon as they are opened is erron

safer to allow the food to remain in

receptable only adds to the danger
of contamination.

If Dan Kelleher can put over in

involving expenditure of $55,000,
000 of public funds by a board of
five inexperienced politiclly ap
pointed members, he can start in

one will have authority to restrain
him.
It has been shown m numerous
cases where public control and oper
ation of such utilities has prevailed
that the rate all things considered
was not lower. Considered alone,
the wattage charge might be in cer
tain cases reduced. Compensating
charges made this rate appear to the
public as-an advantage.
However, when loss in taxes from
private sources, displaced or bought
out is considered, the interest and
sinking fund reservations taken care
of and the total expense ascertained,
the slight reduction in rates was
more than ofset by total cost of op
eration. Consequently many of the
former publicly-owned plants have '
been returned to private control and
ownership.
