REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOR
Mmew and Umatilla Counties
WITH THE GROWTH OF SOCIAL
ISM PROPAGANDA AND ITS
COMMON-SENSE PROGRAM
By Heppner Branch No. 1
Entering every legislative body to
day in this country and every civilized
country Socialism is compelling th
old parties to take up its immediate
demands. This is shown in Congress
when on Sept. 30 such Senators as
Kenyon of Iowa, Borah of Idaho,
Thomas of Colorado and Martsen of
New Jersey advocated the National
Ownership of Railroads as being
cheaper than spending millions of dol
lars improving rivers and would-be
rivers and would-be harbors, on the
plea that such improvements will tend
by competition with railroads to re
duce freight rates, is wasted. That
the railroads control the boat lines is
well known. That regulation of
freight rates by the Interstate Com
merce Commission has been and will
be a complete failure. That the only
solution of the problem is for the
Government to own and operate the
railroads and other transportation
lines. These are the statement s made
on the floor of the United States
Senate by these Senators. Listen to
this: Senator Kenyon was discussing
the Pork Barrel Rivers and Harbors
Bill. He said: "Mr. President, we
have spent enough money on the Mis
sissippi River from its source to its
mouth to build a railroad on each side
of the river, so if we are doing this
work to control railroad rates, we are
engaging in a most expensive way of
doing it."
Thomas Cites Reason.
Senator Thomas said: "Mr. Presi
dent, if the expenditure contemplated
by many of these items is designed to
regulate freight rates, and is neces
sary, notwithstanding the control giv
en by the law to the Interstate Com-
. (Paid Adv.)
now going on shall be completed for
the taking over of the railway lines
and operating them as general public
agencies for the common welfare of
the people, Senator Thomas referred
to the defiance by the New York Cen
tral of the decision of the Supreme
Court in the Union Pacific Merger
Case, and asked Senator Martsen if
this did not indicate that the roads
are greater than the Government.
Senator Martsen said, "They are un
questionably greater than the Gov
ernment itself." And it all conspires
to one argument. My hope and daily j
prayers are for Government owner
ship of every line of them."
As the growth of Socialism in Ger- j
many grew, Bismark gave the Ger- j
man workers one sap after another, i
Look over the railroads, old age pens
ions, widow's pensions, shorter hours j
in mines and industries, more sanitary j
conditions, better schools, complusory
education, better houses, thinking it
would stop the growth of Socialism,
but it grew from one member in the
Riechstag in 1877 until in 1914 it has
111 members, and is the strongest
political party in Germany in number
of vites. And if it had its just repres
entation as to votes cast it would have
the largest party members in the
Reichstag. The same could be said of
all the European countries. In Sweden
the Socialist party in their last elec
tion added 14 new members in the
Landstrom, making a total of 78 mem
bers. This rising tide has caused 37
nations to own their rairoads and are
operating them successfully. This
same sentiment has given us our par
cels post and will compel the postal
officials to extend it until it wil be a
parces post in service as well as in
name. And the same sentiment will
make the banking business of this
country under the postal system. Then
you won't see this Government turn
$1,000,000,000 of currency to the large
banking interests of the country to
move the crops, charging them 8 per
cent interest on the amount. It has
made the farmer get up at daylight
to move that 8 per cent crop allright.
We all call him a jolly good fellow.
The Socialists would have loaned him
that money which was his own credit,
based vpon his own land values and
produce. The Farmer's Equity
Society of Wisconsin, at Madison, in
their convention which represented
10,000 farmers of that state, endorsed
the Socialist candidate for Governor
of Wisconsin. Wake up, you farmers
of Morrow County. Vote to own all
the tools of production and Distri
bution. (Pair Adv.)
