Today is the 81st birthdav of S
W. Gaines, and he Is celebrating the
great event by going to Scio to have
the time of his young life. I was
presented with a fine cake from my
niece, Mrs Intx Stoddard, of Port­
land. and a nice tie from my son.
Theodore. Mrs. Wm Fuller, for­
merly of the Scio hotel, also sent a
big cake and trimmings from Shedd,
where they now live. Th»-»«* * kind

old men so much worse off than 1

With the advent of the political
campaign upon US, it Is well to dis­

politician is for most any measure
that will take him into office, but at
heart is against it as his vote a few
months later will prove. The man
who is for a measure, like the com-
pensation act or for the relief of the
farmer and tells why he is for them.
is the man we should elect.
The
measure is the expression of the will
of the people, and should be invio-
lately followed, while the man is
only the personal ambition of an in­
dividual seeking preferment. Let's
not conflict th ear two by forgetting
the firmer in electing the latter.
