Mr. Parrett has not been Inter viewed by the Graphic on this sub ject and it may be that he will feel unable to accept this responsibility, but the Graphic feels that a citizen with such ability ought to consider it as a duty to come rorward in this trying time and help the people solve the problems of reducing taxes and bringing about a more businesslike administration of our state affairs. We believe that Mr. Parrett could be brought to this view by his friends and hope that he will give this mat ter favorable consideration and de cide to allow his name to be placed upon the ballot as a candidate for state senator. We hope that others who feel with us on this matter will both speak personally with Mr. Par rett and make public their views on the subject. The name of S. L. Parrett of this place has been frequently mentioned of late in local political circles as more than a mere possibility for state senator from Yamhill county. The present period of affairs demands the services of a keen and able business man to assist In governmental af fairs and many people seem to be of the opinion that in Mr. Parrett we have such a man.
