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.

er industrial enterprises.
There is one way to stop this

DEFEAT
The Fish-Wheel-Trap, Seine Bill
VOTE 333 X NO
It will place a monopoly of fishing in the hands of one class, most of
whom are not Citizens, and who have already repeatedly sought to
raise the price of raw fish so as to place it beyond the reach of the aver
age consumer.
Fishing has seldom, if ever, been better.
There is no occasion for factional discrimination and confiscatory
legislation.
This Bill Is Opposed By
The Astoria Chamber of Commerce (the home of principal sponsrrs).
The Clatsop County Press. s
The U. S. Bureau of Fisheries.
By all fair minded citizens respecting the rights of property and be
lieving in common justice;
This Bill, If Passed, Will-
Further increase taxes ;
Raise the price of fish to the consumer;
Violate a solemn treaty with the State of Washington, making it a
scrap of paper ;
Throw many people out of employment in Wasco, Hood River, and
Multnomah Counties;
Destroy industries and valuable taxable properties in these Counties.
Leave the Columbia River a boundary stream subject to concurrent
jurisdiction with the State of Washington in a legal chaos without law
