Robert Service Gives
Pledge to Serve People
Robert Service, candidate, says:
1 believe that the people pay a
preat dfa! more for telephone service
than they should; that the public
should not permit the railroads to
capital ire the increase in value of
land composing the railroad hiph
vay for that value did not add one
dollar to their original cost, neither
has it benefitted the public one dol
lar; that the paramount interest in
our railroads and utilities is in the
Government, or the people, ar.d ben
efts, if any, accrue to the people.
2 am opposed to the Esch-Cummins
cash pius system for our public
business, such as railroads and util
ities, there being no ineer.tive for
economy.
Its effect is shown in the increase
of 8835 officers at a cot of J47.000.000
whiie employes decreased 123,33-1,
freight train miles per cent,
passenger train miles 3 per cent ar.d

STKND money and SAVE money.
Savings average thirty million
dollars a day, about thirty cents
a day for every man, woman and
child not bad.
Yet you bar pessimists predict
ing hard times and sensible busi
ress men actually frightened by
their own talk about "a bad Presi
dential year."
We are indeed "fearfully and
wonderfully made," and well may
we praise the Lord. What horri-
t.e things Mlblil happen u our
glan.is ran wild, as in the case of
a little Russian boy four years old.
He wears a full beard and has such
ahnornial power that he wrestles
successfully with grown men and
must be watched lost he strangle

a child and no realization of power.
Doctors say the unfortunate boy

ous glands, especially the thyroid.
million average human beings, was
ths ton of a livery stable groom.
Tha Governor of Connecticut,
past fifty, will enter Yale Univer
sity, to specialize in history and
psychology when his term ends,
and that is normal. At fifty, men
really want knowledge and value
it. In early youth they crave ex
ercise and excitement.
In childhood we lock them up In
schools, forcing knowledge into
them by a pumping process, when
they ought to be out of doors. And
when they are old we turn them
out into the golf fields and let them
make geese of themselves, when
they really ought to be studying.
The, Labor Government of Eng
land has abolished all duties on
automobiles, motor cycles, moving
picture films and watches and
that, in spite of Great Britain's
terrific war debt.
This highly intellectual Ameri
can Republic is planning a tax on
radio sets, which is about as intel
ligent as it would be to tax school
books or new ideas. To allow
twenty billion dollars' worth of se
curities to go untaxed and put a
tax on human ingenuity is foolish,
to put it mildly.
Marvelously we are balanced,
and we should be grateful. At the
F luator, temperature 140, or the
North Pole, 50 below sero, the
temperature of your blood remains
the same, not a change of one de
free, while outside temperature
changes two hundred degrees.
And the earth, that floating hot
house in which you live, sails
through frightfully cold ether per
manently at "absolute tero," cold
inconceivable to us, and w are
protected from it
Washington predicts that postal
emploves will get an increase of
J 300 a vear, "all except laborers.
WHY except the laborers ? Their
children eat as much, wear out as
manv shoes as others. The Gov
ernment can afford to pay its work
ers well, and should remember that
the chili of a laborer may be the
most important citizen of the fu
ture, and. anyhow, should be well
fed. Keats, the poet, worth ten
Mason J. Aldrich bought a Bible
at auction for twenty-five cents,
and found in it two bills, one for
$100, the other for ?2. A wonder
ful bargain, newspapers call it. Put
there are better things than $102
to be found in any Bible. There is
salvation, most important, and if
you are more interested in money
than salvation, as some are, you
can even make money by reading
the Bible.
Isaiah, Job, the Psalms stimu
late the mind, make the brain work.
A stimulated mind succeeds,
whether in making money, or
avoiding sin.
"To lend dignity to their bobbed
heads," English women wear fil
lets of green and gold, or little
spikes, in Goddess of Liberty fash
ion. The real dignity of a bobbed
head, is a well shaped skull. Noth
ing is more dignified than the sym
metrical head of an intelligent
woman, bobbed or not. Eventually
all women will cut their hair In
such fashion as to show the whole
forehead, the ears and the shape
of the back head. But it will take
time to get used to it.

NEAR EAST BUNDLE DAY, MAY 21.
How gladly I welcome the
verdant spring onion, that sheds
o'er my garden its capable
breath It's good fer my coid
or to poultice my bunion, and
helps to postpone when I'm
flirtin' with death! Its virtues so
rare, that I gladly repeat 'em.
although they are easy and well
understood, I challenge the
strongholds of science to beat
'em in uplift, exclusion, perfum
ery and food! What matter if
friends an' companions forsake
me, or face t'other way when I
toot my bazoo? Of course Mi
repent if my sins overtake me,
and set by myself in a far
corner pew. . . . Let neighbors
insult me by holdin' their noses,
and hintin' that "polecats is or,
the increase" the onion don't
smell like the ottar of roses, but
she lends her admirers content
ment and peace! And, while I
am keerful in idyll and lyric,
and deftly avoid any statements
that clasli I'm quick to repel
any mental hysteric that enters
my kitchen an' fools with my
hash!

, rates were increased.
i Cot of operation is guaranteed no
matter how extravagant and the plus
is too often paid on watered book-
; value that has no earning right.
I recommend the repeal of Section
j 534 Oregon Laws. It regulates the
people and not the carrier; it de-
I prives you of trial by jury when
freight rates is the question to be
j determined.
I also recommend that actual cost,
! if prudently made, be the value of
railroads and utilities for rate mak
ing purposes and as the base for
taxation and also to prevent further
watered stacks and bonds being is
sued in violation of all principles of
justice and right.
I believe it is time to look to the
interests of the public.
I will, if nominated and elected,
probe the telephone and all other
utilities to the bottom and when
thoroughly informed as to facts will
nght it out, in the courts if neces
sary, to establish reasonable rates,
and this is no idle promise nor is it
an emptv pledge.

school, writes as follows .to Hepp
ner friends on the unit plan:
"I think it is far superior to the
old plan In many respects. It Is
more economical as alt supplies for
the districts are purchased by the
superintendent or central board.
Teachers are largely placed by the
central board, too, considering always
the wishes of the local boards. The
blanket tax means a more even dis
tribution of funds. It gives more
nearly even privileges to all children
in all districts. The superintendent
is appointed rather than elected
which, of course, takes the matter
somewhat out of politics. To my
mind it is better school administra
tion all around.
California and the other states that
have adopted the system would not
go back to the old plan."
