Thra Montka Siad Conm , tt.O , 1.00 . .70 . .N MORROW COUNTY'S OFFICIAL PAPER Foreign Advertising Representative THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION You Can Save a Life. There is a man in our town And he is sick abed. He has consumption in his lungs A puzzle in his head. He wants to go to Salem Town Down to the T. B. San But there are forty other folks Ahead of this poor man. There is no other place to go He has to wait his turn He's getting sicker every day I'd like to have you learn. If this goes on for three months more I fear that we shall see A little crepe upon the door Where he was wont to be. BUT if we had a T. B. San In Eastern Oregon We'd save his life; so voters dear, Let's pile up votes Come On! THE general election is on next Tuesday, and as the time ap proaches it is well to remind the citizenship of Morrow county that they should visit the polling places on that date and vote. The choice of candidates is an important mat ter and particularly so this year when members of congress are to be chosen and a governor is to be elected. Not only for this reason, but there is another tha tis equally important. Numerous referred and initiated measures appear on the ballot and it is very important that the greater number of these be voted down. In fact, we know of very few that should receive endorsement and no serious harm would come to the state and tax payers if the whole "kittle of fish" received the axe and were cast on the dump. This is just our private opinion and is not given as a cri terion to go by. What we are try ing to get over is that every citi zen owes it to himself or herself to be at the polls on Tuesday, and having given all matters and can didates proper consideration, vote this' is your duty and a great privilege that should be per formed. Steiwer Campaign Clean. NO MAN of real character in Oregon will today stand squarely before the world and make one proof productive charge against the private or political character of Frederick; yet, lurk ing like a night prowler or foot pad are men, who by cowardly in sinuations that they cannot prove, would stab the Republican party and its senatorial candidate in the back." This is the statement as put forth by ex-service men of Or egon, comrades who fought side by side with Steiwer in the World War. More than 40,000 citizens of Or egon chose Frederick Steiwer to be the Republican candidate in the May primaries, giving him a 10,000 plurality over six other candidates. His campaign then was clean and he won in a fair fight, and all this slander and in nuendo has been for hte purpose of corrupting the public mind. Through it all Mr. Steiwer comes out spotless, and is not the least disturbed or "wraught up." He maintains a dignified attitude, does not respond in kind, and whatever the results may be on Tuesday next, he will continue to be the kind of man he has always been, having nothing to regret and no apologies to offer for the kind of campaign he or his friends have made for him. Freak Laws. TjETURNING from a business Xv trip in the East, J. L. Bow. man, proprietor of the Browns' ville Woolen Mills, says: "The best lines in the textile industry are produced in the Pa cific Northwest, and there is but one thing holding this state back from being one of the greatest cloth and clothing manufacturing centers in the United States. The one thing is the tendency of the state to enact freak laws which have caused Eastern capitalists and manufacturers to be afraid to venture into the production field here." How natural this phrase sounds! The tendency to pass "freak laws" has been the curse of Oregon for a great many years. That it has retarded development in the state is an undisputed fact. Of recent years, however, the people have defeated practically every freak proposal that came before them. But the public mind is kept in a constantly unsettled condition, due to the fact that as soon as one election is over, a new batch of freak laws will be drafted to be passed on at the next election. Is it any wonder that today, cap ital which is willing to come into the state, is waiting until after an election which has up for consid eration state income tax laws, and a measure to bond the state for $50,000,000 to put it into the pow er development business in com petition with all private capital in the state. These are just samples of the disturbing influences which have been inflicted upon Oregon for many years. An Oregon citizeh would not put his money in an other state under such conditions, and we can hardly expect outsid ers to pour their money into this state, until we show an under standing and appreciation of con ditions which draw captial for in dustrial development. "Over the Top." East Oregonian. WORKING earnestly to enlist western Oregon support for the eastern Oregon normal school measure, Floyd D. Moore, cam paign manager, has lost 14 pounds in weight and a lot of sleep during the past three weeks. Mr. Moore has put his heart into the job be cause he believes the bill should pass if the educational interests of the state are to be cared for prop erly. In that view he is sustained by the city superintendent of schools in Portland, by the presi dent of the normal school at Mon mouth, by the president of the normal school at Ashland, by the state superintendent of public in struction and by virtually all other school men and school women. They should know what they are talking about. Meanwhile we do know that our taxpayers are paying for normal school instruction in Oregon and getting very little of it in this sec tion of the state. Eastern Ore gon is left out of the picture and will be until we have an eastern Oregon normal school. How the voting will go next Tuesday no one knows but we will have a better chance if people in Umatilla county and other eastern Oregon counties all vote Yes and induce their friends to do likewise. Putting Dan in the Mosaic WE AMEND Oregon's consti tution with no more con cern than we exhibit in passing an appropriation bill to repaint the capitol. Seven articles formed the Con stitution of the United States as originally adopted in 1787. Four years later (1791) ten articles were added as amendments. Since that time, a period of one hundred and thirty-five years, to date, only nine articles of amendments have been added. v The whole organic and basic law, the fundamental on which this nation rests, is no longer than the amendment proposed under initiative by the Housewives Council, Inc., to be added to the Oregon constitution. In the constitution of the Uni ted States no man's name is men tioned. The Housewives' Coun cil would legislate into Oregon's constitution the names of Dan Kellaher and four others, where heretofore the name of not one of Oregon's distinguished pioneers or founders has been mentioned. Queer things we have to con tend with in Oregon! Oregon's constitution is being made the tool ot an aspiring group of political schemers whose elkim to consideration is without foun dation or precedent. The House wives' Council amendment would add sixteen numbered sections to the state constitution and involve Oregon in experimental enter prises on a huge scale, dangerous to our financial stability, and nev er before attempted by any other state. The amendment as presenetd in the voters' pamphlet bears no dis tinguishing or identifying title to enlighten the voter; it is revolu tionary in its nature; it is risky in its essentials; it confers su preme power on an inexperienced board of control without responsi bility; it creates added indebted ness of fifty-three million dollars; it permits the board to further execute liens against state prop erty; it makes possible a political machine of immense influence and scope; it is suppressive of individ ual initiative; it threatens estab- Dr.Frank Crane Says READ THE KIND NEWS IF YOU see only the sordid, ugly and mean in mankind, it shows that you do not know how to look. The papers are full of kindly news, if you but train your eyes to catch it. Amid the raucous blaring of the crimes of the degenerate few, there can always be found the soft notes that speak of the great mass of common, everyday, homely, honest folk, who make up the worth-while part of humanity. Here are a few such notes taken at random from the news: A New York scrub woman, while her husband was serving a term in jail for non-support, was working for ten dollars a week to support her two children. The rent was overdue and they faced eviction. In the hallway where she scrubbed she found a pocketbook with a hundred dollars in it. In spite of her great need she turned it over to her employer, saying: "It's bet ter to be honest." The town of Newent, in southern England, is known as "the Dafodil Village." Its inhabitants each year sell tons of flowers in London. Recently they set aside a day and gathered five thous and bunches to send free to the thirty hospitals there. The rail way company also transported them without charge. On a busy corner in New York a traffic officer held up traffic for a minute while he rescued a young bird that had fluttered from a nest to the pavement, but was unable to fly. In Providence, Rhode Island, a man who had lost his wife and three grandchildren in the Mackinac disaster last August returned a check for five hundred dollars to the Red Cross, say ing: "Others need it more than I." A patrolman, making his rounds on the East Side in New York warned two men who were arguing in loud tones on a street corner late at night. When he returned they were still shouting at each other, so he locked them both up. The next morning they were arraigned for disorderly conduct and bail fixed at twenty-five dollars. The day before had been rent day and one of the men had no money. If he stayed away from work he would lose his job and his seven children would go hun gry. The officer sadly shook his head, reached into his own' pocket and gave the clerk the twenty-five dollars to release the prisoner. As you read the news each day keep your eyes open for the little revealing glimpses of the noble and the loyal and the kind in human nature that the items often show. lished industry and will repel oth er industrial enterprises. There is one way to stop this cleverly disguised political man euver. Vote 337 X No! on Tues day next. LEXINGTON CHRISTIAN CHURCH. Our Bible school is growing; Let's keep it going.
