Meet the Issue Squarely.
Deceived ly tile l";;ic c.f the
full dinner pail, the ureal ihalin
vote ! tlie country turned to
Roosevelt in I ''04. I lis election
and a continuation of the lii,i;li
tariff policy was followed hy the
panic 1 4 VM7.
'I'he Democrat does ','tot state,
and does not believe, that the
panic of l'H)7 was due to the hiyh
tariff policy adhered to by Mr.
Iv'oosevelt, but it (hies contend
that it is just as reasonable to
.suppose that the panic of 1X7.!
and the panic of 1V07 were line
to a hislli protective tariff, as was
the panic of 1X4 to the adminis
tration of a democratic president.
When a candidate is forced to
resort to the exploded lnjric of
the full dinner pail, as a substi
tute for reason and horse sense,
he must necessarily lose the re
spect of fair minded men. The
scare-crow of "hard times" is the
me last argument oi a (leinaouu
ami a public ailmissiou ot prob
able defeat on the pari of the can
didate or parly who uses it. There
are certain well defined issues in
the present campaign which must
be fairly nu t by the opponents of
Governor Wilson. His argu
ments must be met by arguments
not by wild and unsupported
statements which are calculated
to appeal to the ignorant and un
informed. REPUBLICAN OF NATIONAL REP

It is conceded that the progres

evenly divided between Progres
sive I.ane, near-progressive Clark,
and s o in c t i nt e s - progressive
r.ouruc. Add to Lane's normal
democratic strength, a large re
publican vole in Multnomah
county and fully twenty-five per
cent of the progressive republican
strength in the various other
counties in the state. Then give
Selling the solid reactionary vote
and it can be readily seen which
candidates have the best chance
of success.
The fight is undoubtedly be

a progressive and a reactionary;
between a friend of the masses

THIRTY-ONE REPLIES RE
CEIVED BY STEWART TODAY
That newspaper advertising is a
paying investment for the Commercial
Club of this city was further demon
strated when Manager Stew-art re
ceived thirty-one replies in his mail
this mottling from parties interested
in th's section of the Willamette Val
v y.
Advertisements have been confined
entirely to newspapers in the middle
western and eastern states and the
large number of replies received bv
tlie Commercial Club justifies the ac-
