"THE TRUTH WILL^^
SET YOU FREE”
VOTE FOR EARL «NELL
November, the Third, is the day set aanle for every voter to
rush to the polling places and cast their votes for Governor of our
wonderful State, Oregon. Thrt, coming election may not seem im
portant to some of us. But it is very important if we want things
done and done right. We have at this time and age the best canui-
dates fitted for this office and we should use the utmost care in
voting. Mr. M. C. Atmey, in an editorial in his paper, expreasea
our sentiment to a T, on Earl Snell for Governor, that we will re
print same fur our readers.
Although we are for Edward C. Kelly, not because he is a
Democrat candidate for Fourth District Congressman but we feel
he is better fitted for this place and one othdr thing, he is fiom
Jackson County.
We should like to see Mr. Kelly as our oWn boy be elected
to this office and we strongly urge and recommend your consider
ation.
Let's all go out and poll the biggest votes for E A. Kelly for
Congressman and Earl Snell foiAJovernor.
Read what Mr. Atmey of the Illinois Valley News has to say
about Earl Snell for Governor.
"In Earl Snell the state has an opportunity of electing a gov
ernor who has made a national re putation as Oregon s secretary
of state, and he has served two terms in this office. While secre
tary of state he was a member of the state ooard of control, which
makes him an added asset as governor for he knows whaT it is all
about. Earl Snell is still a young man, and has many many years
ahead of him, as a valued agent of the state.
"Besides being exceptionally well qualified for the position. Mr.
Snell is one of the finest personalities anyone could meet, and we
are not boasting when we say we believe that he will be one of the
most popular governors of the United States, and this won't hurt
Oregon.
"We do not have to tell the residents of this valley the virtues
of Earl Snell, for most of you know all about him. But we do
hope that you all give him one of the biggest majorities any candi
date ever had. We are proud to be one of the sincere advocates
of Earl Snell for Governor.”

WARTIME POLITICS
.Washington has a way of sort of "tempering" the American pu
blic. For instance: Secretary of the Treasury Mogenthau proposes
"spending tax” and Washington sort of eases it to the public
and every one has a chance to maul the idea around and pretty
soon sentiment cnceming the idea begins to seep back to govern
mental departments and all at once, the idea is reeking with poli
tical odors. We wonder why in an established Land of freedom that
we have let politicals hold such a sway. Why is it that always
near elections, issues become so involved in political set-ups?
It
becomes not the true justification of certain measures but rather the
idea of how the measures will "set” politically with the peopie of
the nation.
Whether the idea is just and for the need of the
country does not seem important—but governmental "heads” cer
tainly like to lean politically toward the favored side.
Now the newy proposed "spending tax" idea is being circulated
and ideas, developments, and criticisms are working overtime When
the idea finally comes up to congressional procedure the debate
first in one house and then in another will take place and those
that come from districts that favor the idea will heartily applaud
and those that disapprove will likewise disapprove and the situa
tion will no doubt end in the political rending machine. Meanwhile,
we are in danger of inflation and if the idea would end this war
menace, certainly it would be too late by the time the measure
"passed” and became active. It seems the idea of a new tax bill 1
might have been proposed long ago to have gained favorable re
sults. We need a new source of revenue and this undoubtedly was
imminent long ago . Why then wait until the last minute or when
the nation is gravely in need to propose something that will take
months and months to work out satisfactorily.
We are at war, the senate’s nerves are becoming frayed, and
the public yet does not know the full basic facts of many procedures
Will everything work?—truthfully, we do not know.
