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. GOLD MINES AKE CLOSED DAIRY EQUIPMENT EXCHANGE UNIQUE Two hundred and fourteen pieces of dairy equipment were returned to owners in an unusual organized and conducted in Euge­ ne recently by Dan W. Young. Lane county field man for the state department of agriculture. Dairymen and dairy plants participated. So far as the depart­ ment knows, this was the first such organized exchange con­ ducted in the state. Ml Gold mining in Siskiyou county | is over for the duration. This unwedcoming fact became apparent today with the issuance of an order in Washington pro­ hibiting placer mines from treat­ ing more than 100 cubic yards or gravel per month, or lode mines from treating more than 100 tons of ore. —Buy War Saving* Stampa— tU Organisation of ‘Ellsworth I Big Crop Goals For I Congre«»’ Completed 1943 Needed for War for EUGENE.
