JUNE SO, 1»21 A SENATORIAL MISFIT. l^at week Senator Stanfield visit ed Portland, hie home town. While it is true that hie visit was rather unexpected the senator excited but little more attention than an ordin ary hobo landing in town would. The press merely mentioned that the senator was in town. His ar rival would hardly have been men tinned except for the office seekers were to be jollied. There's a reason A congressman is expected, in his activities, to represent the sentiment of the people of the United States in general and that of his home state in particular. It is doubtful If Senator Stanfield represented 600 of the people who elected him. when he advocated the interests of the “big five" packing companies before the U. 8. senate. Few people, however, were sur prised at his action. In the cam paign of last year, owing to Stan field's Intimate relations with the Swift Packing company, that he would represent the (tacking house interests in the senate. So he did not disappoint many Oregonians when he announced in a speech before the senate that they (the lacking houses) had developed the best and moot economical system for the distribution of meat prod ucts in the world. But moot Oregonians, whether producers or consumers of animals slaughtered for'food purposes, con sider the packing companies next door to enemies. They Know it is the purpose of the packing houses to hold down prices of meat-produc ing animals to the lowest poanble figure and to exact the highest prices for the meat after the ani mal has passed through the slaugh tering process The people see in the [tacking companies friends, not to any con siderable amount of the people, but of themselves only. They pluck the producer and skin th^ consumer. Hence the people of Oregon, though they do not openly say so. privately In their hearts they curse Stanfield. If a new election could occur now, as between Stanfield and Chamber lain, Stanfield would not receive one- third of the votes of the people. Dragon has Iteen represented in the U. 8. senate in the past by some very poor material. But Stanfield Is tbs first senator to advocate a measure to which the vast majority of his constituents were opposed. Had it been known that Stanfield would thus quickly misrepresent the people of Oregon he would have been sunk so deeply in oblivion that he would never have been heard of in a political way again.
