Salaries ate he has had an important influence in such legislation especially as it concerns Oregon. ^It goes without saying, of course, that a man for so important a position as United States senator should be elected, not for his stand op some one measure, but for his record and attitude on general legislation which affects and is likely to affect the state and nation. On this basis McNary has been the most effective senator Oregon has had in the present generation and it is certain that the welfare of the state will be well served if he is returned to office. SOME CANDIDATES A peculiar situation has arisen in the Republican ticket this year. Seventeen candidates are seeking to go to Cleveland as delegates to the convention from the state at large. Each of the three districts in the state is entitled to two delegates for a total of six and four are elected from the state at large to make up the ten the state is allowed. Seventeen are running for four jobs and in this district three are running for two jobs. Peculiar, and unfortunate, for there are many good men among the seventeen who cannot be elected. Among the group are three from eastern Oregon, Ben Litfin, who is publisher of a newspaper in The Dalles and is known to many Sherman countians who will undoubted ly give him a good vote. Arthur Priaulx of Klamath county, present chairman of the state committee and an active and aggressive young Republican and D. J. Butcher of The Dalles, former business man and Townsend advocate. There are other well known names in the list. There is Earl Goodwin, Governor Martin’s one time secretary; Arthur Geary, freight rate attorney, Joe Dunne, guberna torial candidate, Tom Verdenius, Dr. Smith, Irving Rand and Stanley Myers, all of Multnomah county. We feel safe in recommending Ben Litfin and Arthur F^iaulx as men who are aepuainted with the second district and able to look out for its interests. The race for national committeeman of the Republican party is being run between Ralph Williams, 28 year old veteran in the job, and Ben Dorris, young filbert grower of Eugene. There is an old saying to the effect that when your luck is bad it is time to overhaul and change your management It might apply to the Republican party. Those who believe that party success would be aided by sn infusion of new blood will have a chance to express them, selves by voting for Mr. Dorris. Our idea of a dangerous pastime would be praising the A man is even campaigning for vice-president. Evi dently some men want to be the forgotten man.
