self In tho Republican Primary, May
17fh.
Fram the day he became Senator
he has loyally championed the prose
cution of the war. and during his
term of office has accomplished more
for Oregon than any other member in
Congress in a like period.
Among his colleagues he is known
as "The man on the Job" and during
the present war crisis Oregon should
consider itself fortunate in having an
opportunity to return him and not be
compelled to send to Washington, a
' 'new, untrained man.
Believing that the supreme obliga
tion ho owes his country is to help
win the war. Senator McNary, instead
of returning to his State to conduct a
political campaign, is at his post in
Washington working for Oregon and
aiding In the prosecution ot the war.
Always since entering the Senate
he has been a friend ot our soldiers
and sailors and has introduced legis
lation giving them preferential home
stead rights and repeatedly cham
pioned their cause when their welfare
was In Jeopardy.
Championing the cause of the Ore
gon farmers, Senatur McNary pro-'
cured for them a primary wheat mark
et, saving thereby several million dol
lars to the wheat growers of. the North
west. -

Terslty; Is a lawyer and farmer and
lias, -been, a life-long . republican. . He

premo Court and later chairman ot

iuitttee. Space forbids further enumeration
ot the vast amount ot work Senator
McNary has done for Oregon, but any
one will realize from the foregoing
the Senator has displayed truly re
markable ability, coupled with extra
ordinary diligence and energy. His
native State can beat show Its ap
preciation ot bis faithful and effi
cient services by nominating and elect
ing' him.

Tho fuel wood will bo obtained from

lengths and of a diameter that will tit

company has a number ot locomo

logging railways above Wendllng, and
has heretofore been using crude oil
for fuel, but owing to the fact that
tho, government needs all the oll.pos
slblo for war purposes tho company
is able to obtain but little and will
soon bo compelled to do without tt
altogether.
