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.

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.
