A CASE OF ROAD HOG, Ever hear the definition of a "road-hog?" A large auto truck from Portland eoming down the hill met Lancelot Kennedy, a youne farmer living on his fath er's place east of town, driving to town With a horse and buggy and a load of eggs. The truck driver kept, the road, forced Young Kennedy into the ditch tipping over the buggy, spilling the eggs and .stampeding the horse. A little' farther on, at the bend in the road where an auto was wrecked a year ago, the truck driver met another machine and forced the driver to run his machine . over the edge, narrowly averting an aceident. Later 'the driver of this machine met fCe'nnedy and both came back to Beavertoh ahead of the truck ,v;here they phoned to the sheriff's office. When the truck driver learned of this he imme diately handed over $10 and the charge ' .was-' dropped, A few more, drastic .moves like this might clear the road of this specidB of swine and give the traveling public at least half a chance to drive in peace. .

Statement of E, L Moore Republican candidate for legis lature. To the republican vot ers of Washington county, Or. 1 am not a politician, have never asked for or held public office. 1 have no word to say against any other candidate. I am a business man and a mem ber of several commercial and business organizations' and have given business and industrial conditions a careful study. 1 be lieve .that the future success and prosperity of Oregon und Wash ington county depends upon the development of industries and resources. I believe that every person that is engaged in busi ness whether it be in producing, buying and selling, agricultural products, buying tnd selling of merchandise, manufacturing and employing of labor or any other business pursuit, should give these conditions careful study. Let us be fair aud just to busi ness industries so they may have a chance to develop and we will be able to manufacture our raw materials here instead of else where, and in this way give labor more employment and better wages. 1 consider the state leg islature more of a business than political organization. Let us re duce taxation by more business economy and the abolishment or combination of some of the forty- sevea commissions now existing, i These opinions are the thoughts I that have been expressed Dy a large number of .farmers, manu facturers, merchants and labor ing men, and if they meet with vour aDDroval vote for the candi date who is best qualified to rep resent you.
