I t looks all right, but oh how bitter it will be if you swallow it— that / ‘Farmers’ Land and Loan Law .” D o you know what that “ Land and Loan Law ” really is? I t ’s sin gle tax in its worst possible form. W h y has it been given an at tractive decieving title? Because M r. U ’Ren’s single tax bills have been twice burned under an ava lanche of votes by the people of Oregon, and the paid propagand ist from Oregon City knows that if the proposed amendment were to sail under its true colors tt would be smothered beneath an other landslide. So he promul gates the most vicious of all single tax bills under the alluring title of “ Full Rental Value Land Tax and Homemakers' Loan FundAmend- ment,” commonly called the “ Farmers' Land and Loan Law .” Single tax was defeated by the voters of Oregon in 1908 by prac tically a two-to-one vote. The amendment received 32,066 votes to 60,871 ballots against it. Single tax was given a more severe trouncing in 1912, when 82,015 citizens of Oregon registered their disapproval of the theory, and only 31.534 tvoted for it. It will be defeated again November 7 if. It is presented to the voters of the state on its own merits. And that is what must be done in this campaign— acquaint every one with the fact that this so-called “ Land and Loan Law” is the most wicked form of single tax. Remember the number—307 X N o.

There will be no change in the present series of Studebaker cars for several months to come. changes in Studebaker cars to increase their popularity or stim ulate public demand........................................................................................................ Even with a great inorease in Stude baker production from 5000 cars a month to 8000 cars a month, Studebaker cannot meet the present demand, and there is no indication that it will be able to meet the future demand for some time to come. The present series of Studebaker cars were first announced to the public in June, ‘ 1915. Refinements and improvements were added in January, and the new series i at that time called the “ ’17” car. ADDITIONAL LOCALS. Otto Peetz, assessor for Sher man county, and Margaret W hal ley, daughter of John T.W halley, of Portland, were married at the home of the brides’ parents Thurs day, October 5th. They will be at home to their many friends at M oro after Monday, October 16. Since then, no company has been able to dislodge the leadership of Studebaker in its class. No company has been able to offer greater value, higher quality, more power, greater beauty of line, oY better riding qualities, than the public finds in the present series of Studebaker cars.

Poley hat the nobbi est roadster in the county with which to answer professional calls. It is a “ chummy” three seat 6-cyl- inder Studebaker, with the two seat arrangement joining with, but slightly back of the seat used by the driver. which today makes it impossible for Stude baker to keep pp with the steadily in creasing demand. The present series of Studebaker cars have been sold in all parts of the world— more particularly in all parts of the United States— and whether the service was in metropolitan centers or on the rough Rocky Mountain stage routes of the far West, Studebaker cars in power, in stam- inia, in dependability, in exceedingly low repair and maintenance expense, have es tablished a splendid reputation. Seventy thousand owners testify to the worth of the present series of 8tudebaker cars. Is there a better guarantee for you to consider in making your investment in a motor car, and is there greater assurance that the buying of a Studebaker car is a real investment; and if you should care to sell it in the future, is there a better guar antee that you would be assured of the highest possible resale price? have just received a liberal shipment of new Studebakers. it will be a pleasure for us to go over the Golden Chassis of this car. point by point, and demonstrate the car against any competitor on the road.
