Aurora, Or-Jhursday, Sept. 10, 1 903 There is a sense of the incon . sistent in the position of Mr. Debs, socialist candidate for 1 president, who is touring the country in a spcial train at. the ' expense of laboring men, who lire furnishing the fund?. Eryan doesn't use special trains in his campaign tours, and the bvrden to labor would bo lighter if Mr. Debs would travel in little less regal style. ' ! Mr. Harriman has rromised that all railroad 'construction how under way -in this state shall be complete J,' besides 'the building of a ne' line in fccntral prcgon, opening up to; settlement a vast empiro ofrfer ilo lands: This ia.particv'arly Encouraging, coming as it does, from Mr. Harriman himself. Already two corps of surveyors arc in the field seeking the most feasible route. This building will . employ thousands 6f men and cause the" ex-' pendituro of millions of dollars for supplies and labor. There is no state n the. Union today that has a grander future than Oregon. . ' In cyery stato where the pri- i . . . . mary law nas occn inirouucea jt means tho end of the old re gime. The machine politician has to step down and out while the advocate of reform methods steps into office. In Washington jiState, U. S. Senator Ankeny los es to Congressman Jones, the jipostlo " of popular rule. The primary lav is no doub the best means pr mptnod of securing the pept and most capable men. The j)est of men will not go into a convention and clicker and deal rd mako promises they . do not intend to keep in order to get p nomination for office. Under the primary they go-direct to the peoplo and success or fail ure depends upon the public con science which is nearly always right. ' Tho editor of this paper , wa tho first to openly advocate the fuaranteo of bank deposits in misstate. We do not advocate this as a political measure, but as a public expediency. Tho election of any presidential can didate would not bring it about as a national measure. If there is a practical rule by which a b?n depositor can bo protected against loss of , his money in bank failures, wo see no reason why wo should not have it. In Oklahoma. 1 1 .o only stato . in which the lav ij in vogue, the system is r.o popular that the bankers would iu-t ho without it. They get tho deposits cf peo ple from adjoining states and have their vault3 bulging with money, However.- thia is not a national issue. There will not be a national law of tl.h kind for tho next 10 ycavs nt I a:?t, but the pooiIj of Oregon can havo ar. opportunity to study tho law ami its modua operandi and pass It nt some future flection.

More truth than poet; rj. A littlo rristcr't Ink prints a littlo advertise ment in a littlo "maga zine" that ciirulatc'3 at a littlo prico tind goes into a million littlo homes, chie fly in the littlo cities and. towns and country places. . f- Tho millions of peoplo in these homes nro caused bv the Printer's Ink to think that they can get big bargains for thnV money'1 by lending It -away .'by mail, order ing tlib things advertised by' thd ' littlo pinch of Printer's Ink. Sometimes when they receivo tho stuff they order by moil they havo another Think coming. They think, "What . fools vo mortals be," and apply, tho Think to themselves. And sometimes somo of them think something likp fins: "Wonder why Mister Man, our local dealer In many things weieed, doesn't advertise these things In our local paper? Maybe If he did we wouldn't be tempted to send to the big city for these same things. If we were sure we could buy them at home for about the same price and have a chance to see. the Goods before, taking, we think we'd prefer to buy them at home."
