I submit my candidacy to the Repub
licans of Oregon for the nomination
for Governor. Following are some of
the principles for which I stand:
1. I have made no pre-election prom
ises and I will make none, except
those herein stated.
2. Taxes on general property must be
reduced. I fsvor substituting net
to exceed ten departments for the
seventy or more existing State
Commissions. (Illinois System.)
3. Not only reduction of taxes, but
improved msrketing facilities and
Increased credit are eeeentlal to In-
eure the prosperity of the farmer.
4. A more equitable adjustment of the
automobile license tax with due re
gard to the actual value of the car.
Gasoline tax for highways only.
5. As to my attitude on the labor
question, I refer to my employes,
and my Legislative record.
4. Completion of the State Highway
System with special attention to
market roads.
7. The public school is one of the
fundamental factors in our systsm
of Government. I favor compul
sory attendance In the primary
grades. Teach pure Americanism
to all pupils, beginning st an early
age. Continue to strengthen and
build up this typical American In
stitution.
8. Strict enforcement of all laws.
9. I am against Japanese land owner
ship or control.
Senator Charles Hall of Marshfield,
who has long been mentioned as one
of the strongest prospective candi
dates for Governor, has announced
definitely that he will enter the guber
natorial race. This announcement has
been expected by his friends for some
time, as strong pressure has been
brought to bear upon the Coos and
Curry Senator since his name was
first mentioned as a prospective can
didate.
He was born on a farm In Jefferson
County. Pennsylvania, and came to
Oregon in 1901. Shortly thereafter he
began hts business career as a clerk
In a drug store at Clatskanie, Oregon.
Eventually he acquired ownership of
the drug store, sold it and bought a
drug store In Hood River, where he
lived until 1914. In Hood River his
ability for organization asserted It
self. Durtng the eight years he spen’
In that town, he was one of the build
ers of the telephone system there, the
Oregon-Washington Telephone Com
pany, and built the Central Building.
Oregon Hotel and the Hall Building,
and owned and planted a number of
orchards in the Hood River Valley. He
also served as Director and President
of the Hood River Commercial Club.
His activities were transferred to
Coos Bay In 1914 and Immediately
thereafter a number of new organisa
tions In that district came Into being.
He organised the Coos and Curry
Telephone Company of which he Is
President today; organised the Bank
of Southwestern Oregon In 1917 and
was President of that institution until
1921.
Outside of his business activities In
Marshfield, he soon became one of the
prominent citizens of that district. He
was one of the original promoters of
the State Highway program. He was
elected Senator from the Eighth Sena
torial District comprising Coos and
Curry counties in 1920.
Senator Hall soon became one of
the leaders in state-wide politics as a
fearless exponent of the highway pro
gram. As a Legislator be played a
prominent part in all important legis
lation during both sessions In 1921
He risked censure from the exponents
of the 1925 Exposition Bill when he
refused to listen to any proposed In
roads into the road funds for the pur
pose of financing the Pair, Hall's un-
deviating course In this latter action
brought forth the highest praise from
all parts of the State.
Sines his debut into state-wide poll-
tian, the leadership In various non
political movements has gravitated
naturally to him. He Is a member of
the Oregon Lead Settlement Commis
sion and served for three years as
President of the Oregon State Cham
ber of Commerce and Is now a director
of that organisation.
Friends of Senator Hall proclaim
him as a natural leader, and point with
pride to his record of achievements In
public and private life. Others con
cede that his Judgment is sound and,
admit that no outside pressure or log
rolling can swerve him from any pro
gram or movement to which he has
dedicated hinjgelf.

"My life has been so hum-drum and
as nothing has happened to me out of
the ordinary I am sure there is noth
ing In what I have done the last two
years In the Near East that would be
of interest to my Oregon friends,” stat
ed Mrs. Amy Anthony Burt of Bend,
Oregon, to J. J. Handsaker, State
Director of the Near East Relief when
he met her In Constantinople last
summer.
“After much effort,” says Mr. Hand
saker. "I persuaded her to tell me some
of the things of this hum-drum life of
hers. Sitting in a Constantinople cot i
fee-house she told me of some of the
events of her life since March 1919,
when she arrived in the Near East.“
“Her first work was at Karakllss,
where with her sister. Miss Gertrude
Anthony, she had charge of a large
orphanage and a territory 75 miles
square for general relief. During the
time she was there she nursed her sis
ter through both typhoid and typhus.
The two women were alone in this sta
tion.
“After going through this experience
they went to Alexandropol and there
one day received a message from the
English that they were evacuating
Baku, some 600 miles away.
The
British had been feeding about 1,000
children, and unless they were trans
ferred Immediately they would starve
as soon as the British left. This Oregon
woman whose life was so hum-drum I
quietly secured two special trains', put- j
ting a man in charge of one, and tak
ing the other herself. On arriving at
Baku, she began loading the children
at 10 o’clock a. m. and had the children
and their supplies all aboard by 4:30
p. m. She read the riot act to the
Turkish captain In charge of the train
and he compelled the guards to cease
attempting to enter the cars where the
older girls and women were. The round
trip took nearly two weeks, but Mrs.
Burt returned to Alexandropol with
her two train loads of children without
having lost a single child.
LIFE OR DEATH?
A question which is still haunting
State Director J. J. Handsaker of the
Near East Relief; was put to him by
Mrs. Jeanette W. Emrlch when he
was In Constantinople late last sum
mer. Mrs. Emrlch Is well known in
Oregon through her talks on condi
tions In the Near East four years ago,
when she spoke In the 1918 campaign.
“Mrs. Emrlch Is now in charge of
extensive Near East Relief work at
Constantinople, her duties Including
the management of several industrial
units, a number of soup-kitchens, and
a feeding station for 6,000 children,”
said Mr. Handsaker. “She is one of
the most energetic, efficient and de
voted workers on the Near East staff,

fetid eggs.
"This beverage is drunk so gener

to restrain their appetites, that It has
become an economic problem of great
magnitude in Mexico because of the
Immediate enforced Idleness It causes,
and because of the degeneracy that re
sults from Its long-time use.
“Pulque is not to be confused with

with aguardiente, a brandy, distiller)

"In lesser altitud«« than that of the

very slowly, a fact which led to giving
the nickname ‘century plant’ to the
variety found In the Southwest of the
United States. The abolition of pulque
would not affect the high esteem In
which the maguey plant is held In
Mexico. Not only Is Its beverage very
ancient, but Its uses always have been
many. A 'miracle of nature' Prescott
called It, nnd small wonder. Its leaves

manuscripts were preserved, the na
