Carlton, Oregon, May 8, 1820.
Editor Newberg Graphic.
Newberg, Oregon.
J.f
Statements have been energetical­
ly circulated in Yamhill county to
the affect that I am “ a Warren Con­
struction Co. man.” and a “ natural
supporter"
of
corporations and
trusts, and that my legislative rec­
ord proves this beyond all doubt.
It ip not for me to Judge o f the
motives of any other man, but the
evident purpose o f these slanderous
reports at this particular time is,
by appealing to popular prejudice,
to defeat my nomination by the Re­
publican voters for Joint Senator
from Yanthill, Washington. Tilla­
mook and Lincoln counties.
W ill you kindly permit me the
use of your columns to denounce
the above statements as being on-
seal if led ly and maliciously false?
During the 1818 session there was
a flood o f bills, coming chiefly from
the Senate side of the legislature.

SCHOOL
AG R ICULTUR E MOTES
1. The school gardens work is
' shaping up nicely.
The blistered
bands and sore muscles bothered at
first, but both were soon forgotten
in the keen race for “ first garden
prepared for planting.” This work
gives th« young “ would-be garden­
e r" a chance also, to show his game­
ness. We all know the world has
no use for a quitter. The sooner
the. young folks learn this lesson the
better.
2. Children
sometimes
tell
strange tales.- Parents please note
that no pupil needed to spade hit
plot. Soil was nice aad mellow be­
neath a slightly caked surface. A
good hoeing, leveling, running over
with wheel plow, breaking of lumps
and raking was all that^wae needed.
2. Of the thirty-six' pupils who
prepared for planting; a little girl
did the quickest, neatest aad most
efficient work. aO things considered.
She came with open mind, took the
teacher’s advice, acted aeeordlagty.
and profited thereby as might be
expected.
4. There is perhaps no handicap
so hard to overcome in taking up
new work, aa tha handicap of a big
act of "pre-coneeived ideas.” Such
a handicap caused many pupils to
spade when there wan no aeed of it.
We advised against it (it has a very
bad drying out effect at this time)
but did not say it must not be done.
Such a late turn over tends to a
breaking up o f the capillary action.
A good seed bed? Most certainly!
But necessarily a spade deep. Those
who have “ dry-farmed” w ill appre­
ciate the value of a shallow seed
bed ia dry weather.
6. Vegetables that will grow
during dry weather without artifi­
cial watering:
Warm season crops— Beans, okra,
cucumber, egg plant, melons, pep­
pers. potatoes, pumpkins, squash, to-
corn.

CANNING OUTLOOK

It Is easy for anyone to see that
tt canned gooda are put on the gro­
cery shelves at prices that are out

is not at all promising.
>
H. F. Davidson, Hood R iver fru it
grower, and who is interested in
the canning industry, ia discussing
the situation sayn:
“ The situation is going to re­
bound ultimately, to the detriment
of the grower. W e can find an ex­
ample of growers over estimating
the value o f their product and the
resultant had effects ia ' the apple
deal of the past season.
“ Growers last year, on the open­
ing of the market, priced their fru it
ut a figure that curtailed consump­
tion. i f the values had been net
lower, low enough to have kept ap­
ples moving swiftly into actual con­
sumption, northwestern apple, grav­

mines how many apples or bow
much o f a fruit product, or any
other product for that matter, is go­
ing to be sold.

goes beyond a certain figure the
consumer w ill cease to buy. Grow­
ers cannot afford to.produce such a
situation aa this.

bitterest enemies. I refer to Sew
tors Dlmtck. Thomas. Bfrayer, Pierce
and LaFollett. They were the men
who openly fought the 1817 Bond
BUI ta the house aad senate and
campaigned their local districts
against it. The same men, except
Thomas, voted against the 1818 ten
million doUar bond hill, and against
the 1820 ten million dollar bond
bill. Throughout three sees to ns of
the legislature they bad been the
open, aggreeslve and bitter enemies
of good roads.
It was hardly to b« expected. I
think, that constructive legislation
looking to the upbuilding of a
sound, practical road construction
program was likely to come from
such source, nor should it be hard
for any intelligent person to under­
stand how, with my well known
views on the subject of good roads,
there would be little in common be­
tween such men and me on the
question o f road legislation.
I f there is a man or woman in
Yamhill county, or elsewhere, who
wishes to vote against me because I
stood up against these enemies of
good roads and fought to save the
state road program from their at­
tempt to destroy it. I would consider
such opposition aa a compliment.
Instead of my being n so-called
“ Warren Construction Co. man” and
supporting legislation favorable to
them, the exact opposite ia true.
The worst enemies o f the Warrens
have given me direct credit for hav­
ing protected th « state from the
machinations of the so-called paving
trust. Senator Qua Moser, Senate
floor leader, and one of the most
powerful enemies of the Warrens,
stated publicly on the floor of the
Senate, when the ten million dollar
bond bill of 1218 was under consid­
eration, that this bond bill prepared
by my committee, together with
House Bill 818, prepared personally
by me and Introduced by my com­
mittee. had given tbe opposition to
tbe paving trust all and more than
they had asked for, and for that
reason he was In favor of the Senate
passing these two bills aa they came
from the House without dotting an t
or crossing a t, and this was done.
The Portland Evening Telegram,
the champion o f the fight against
the Warren Construction Co., In Ha
issue of February 85. 1920, said:

protective legislation designed to
