SUPPORT THE TICKET In vlow ot Senator McNary's pros .... tn nu-n tniinr nml his nrogram for .campaign speeches In behalf of republican principles ana cnnuiuatcs. beginning hero this ovenlng. wo feel it an especially fitting tlmo, to Join in tho plea to members ot tho party and thoso who will vote with them this year to mark their ballots for the republican candidates through out. Nearly everybody, It now appears. la ronrir in vote for Harding and! Coolidge. "Nick" Slnnott will re celvo his customary large majority both hero and elsewhere In his dis trict. In tho stato contests tho re publicans will lead their various op ponents, wherever there are any, and in tho county we hope to seo a full measuro of support given all the re publican nominees. Two years ago wo favored Senator McNary In his contest with Robert N. Stnnfleld. That, ot course, was for the republi can nomination for the senate. The Stanfleld methods of extravagant ex penditure were not such as to win him favor and we were glad to seo the voters rebuke him as they did. This year Mr. Stanfleld Is tho regu lar republican candidate. He Is not trying to mako his way to the senato by the profligate use of money. The reasons for opposition no longer ex ist and important reasons for sup port, to the end that Oregon may do her share toward providing a republi can senate to work with a republican president do exist. We therefore hope that Mr. Stantield may be chosen. "This is a republican year. It Is up to all republicans to support their candidates. THE McCANN NOMINATION Tho petitions circulated for the purpose of placing T. A. McCann's same In nomination for the office of mayor of Bend are an attempt to draft for the most Important city of fice a man whose abilities make him conspicuously fit for the Job. Hold ing the position he does, with Its many demands on his thought and attention, Mr. McCann would never ot his own desire seek the office. He would never be a volunteer candi date. Those who ask him to accept the call know what sacrifices he must make to do so, but at the same time feel that the need ot the hour must appeal to him, and that be will see an opportunity to do a service to tho community that he will not refuse. E. D. Gilson, Mr. McCann's pros- nectlve opponent for the position, has a record of able public service In the city of his former residence, and it is not in disparagement of him that; , The Bulletin hopes that Mr. McCann will accept the nomination and carry the election. Our feeling is simply that Mr. McCann Is the better man for the Job. ANTI-VACCINATION In spite of the overwhelming proof of the valuo and efficacy ot serums and Inoculation against disease the antis keep bobbing up , with attempts to prevent their use. The latest effort is found in the measure .initiated by a body calling itself The Public School Protective League which will be voted on at... ,.,, ,,,, ... the coming election. According to proposes that "no form of vaccina tlon, ; inoculation, or other medica tion shall be made a condition In this state for admission to, or at tendance In, any public school, col lege, university or other educational Institution; or for tho employment of any person in any capacity, etc." In considering this measure It must bo remembered that many forms of disease aro contagious and communicable. This Is Just as cer tain as tho fact that water runs down hill. It Is also equally cer tain that vaccination and tho use of seruinB render a person immune from many of these diseases. Thoro can bo no denial of this fact. Eur opean experience with smallpox bo tore Dr, Jenner discovered vaccina tion and the later experience since his discovery has been in uso show this.' Array oxporlenco with typhoid fever boforo and after typjiold serum vfas used gives proof of tho stimo nature, pther eyjdon'co is nvallable, but this from thoso two diseases la sufficient.

That lies tlio whole ques tion ot iiroTonJIon. Thn hope of Iho medical profession Is to wipe out disease. This rannol ho dona If people nro left to lake disease Is they nro willing. Prevention Is the llrst step toward elimination. Wo can noror eliminate If wo pass such measures as this. U should bo voted down. AN' EXPERIMENT Bend's paving plans nro beginning to recclvo comment from tho outside world, tho following being taken from tho latest Issue of C. C. Chap man's Oregon Voter: "Bend's city fathers hnvo decided to "experiment" with a now kind of ruueni imkhu'iii iuv a w theory lhat It will endure flvo years. anyway, yrcauy me. taxpayers beginning to wondor whether It will bo economy. History of these 'ex periments' in hundreds of other cities has hnd only one result tho cheap pavement has lasted from thrco to seven or eight years, and then has gono to pieces. Portland and other cities of Oregon hnvo tho same ex perience. The lesson Is that It pays tho taxpayers to lay a reliable pavo mont. There nro soveral such, but none are as cheap as tho short-lived kinds." The Voter Is somewhat Inaccurnto In attributing tho local paving action to tho "city fathers" and In suggest ing that It Is causing tho taxpayers any-worry. The mayor and council, It Is true, are tho ones who hnvo put through the preliminaries to paving, but In doing so they have merely fol lowed the request ot a majority ot the owners of property on tho streets to bo paved. So far as personal opinion Is con cerned, thero wcro several council men who believed that a mistake was made In entering Into the paving con tract providing for only a two-Inch surface. Thoy agreed with tho city engineer that a thicker pavement should be secured, but In tho faco ot the public demand they accepted the situation and voted for tho two Inch pavement. No city taxes wero concerned. The bills nro to bo paid by the property owners and tho council acted merely as their agent. It's the property owners who nre trying the experiment. CRITICAL Some time ago there appeared here an editorial commending the Orcgo- nlan on the stand It had taken In re spbet to one of Senator Harding's statements concerning the League ot Nations covenant. This editorial was reprinted In full with approving comment in the latest issue ot the Oregon Voter. And now today's mall brings this critical missive from Portland: "Editor The Bend Bulletin: Your editorial, so full of praise for the Oregonlan's editorial some time since, showing a trifle of anxiety be cause of Harding's flopping around on the League ot Nations question. "Your editorial Is under the title, 'Cool Courage,' I assume, as I saw It In another publication. "It is very fine of you and all oth ers to blow your horns of prnlso WHEN said praise agrees with your Ideas and then STOP blowing. As you very well know, the Oregcnlan has not kept Its position that It took on that particular occasion. In fact, Its changes make a sensible person dizzy. "I am wondering If the average newspaper editor will ever learn that the American people are beginning to learn to read! It doesn't seem llku it. "Yours with hope for a chango in editorial write-ups 'some day,' "L. R. SMITH." In reply to Mr. Smith we venture ore weJ awflre Qf the fMt that i the people have learned to read. That Its why newspapers are published. Mr. Smith's Idea seems to be that, hav , Ing learned to read, he has also learned to think. We trust this Is so. In one respect wo feel that, yester day's suggestion that all tho republi can candidates on tho ballot bo sup ported at the polls by members of the party should bo qualified. Oc cupying the position wo do, we think It hardly the thing to urge support for the republican candidate for county Judge. Wo know him well, wo know the circumstances under which ho happons to bo In tho otflco, and we know that his wish is not for tho office, but simply to do the Job woll In caso tho voters prefer lilm for It. Ho will be qulto willing, we happen to know, to leave tho office If his democratic opponent and friend Is -preferred. Addison Bennett has begun n series of articles In tho Oregonlan in which ho says ho will fairly r:nd impartially consider tho Question ot tho proposed bird reingo Jn ilarnoy count.. At tho same tlmo we.flnd in the Harney Ooiinlr Now Mini Mr. IlnpmMt In In tin rim "(o seek first-hand Itiforitm tlon concerning the bird reservation measuro and to aid lu iui Intelligent endeavor In defeating the measure nt the polls." flu much for the Impur tlal study. lly n careful examination of the photographs ot tho republican nml tho democratic presidential candi dates appearing lu thn voter' ramph let we hnvo discovered that both Cox and RoosoveR wear nose glasses and Harding and Coolldgo wear no glass es. To tho Intense partisan this gives plenty ot reason for voting for his choice. Ii. C. (lilmnu, promoted to tlio vlco-presldency of tho (Jreat North ern Railway, was always a good frlond ot this section while presi dent of tho Oregon Trunk. Wo are sorry to seo him go, but congratu late him on tho advanced position. Pulp mills and railroad connec tions nro all very well, but what wo are really Interested In these days Is n return of our former brand of sun shine It this weather keeps on, wo might ns well pockot our prldo and go and livu In tho Wlllnmotto vnlloy.

Tho city election promises the Injection of Interest Into an other wlso dead campaign. FIRE PREVENTION ' WORK APPRECIATED Appreciation of tho observation ut Firo Prevention dny mado through tho medium of newspaper publicity In Bend Is conveyed In n letter just received by Tho Bulletin from A. C. Harbor, stato tiro marshal. Mr. Bar ber writes as follows: "Thero has Just com6'to my at tention through a press' bureau, n copy ot your tiro prevention Bulletin of October eighth. "I noto from other press clippings that Bond observed Firo Prevention day in a mnnner befitting nn enter prising and up-to-dato city.

Ot chief Importance to tho coast states, Mr, Erskliio said, was tho recommendation regarding Amer ica's Japanese policy.
