FILTHIEST CAMPAIGN IN YEARS
Sense of Decency and Fair Play Cer
tain to Elect Steiwer.
Corvallis Gazette-Times.
We haven't the slightest idea that
George Putnam believes a single word
of his telegTam to Senator Reed con
cerning the J35.000 a Philadelphia
power company is alleged to have
paid The Oregonian to support Stei
wer. It would be a compliment to
Steiwer that some such important
concern as this Philadelphia outfit re
garded him so highly.
Let's analyze this thing.
Why would a corporation wish
Stanfield defeated?
Has he ever shown any anti-corporation
tendencies?
On the contrary, hasn't he been
consistently branded here by the Or
egon Journal as a "friend of big bus
iness?" Hasn't he been linked up with the
Swift Packing company by this same
muck-raking journal in an effort to
create a prejudice against him in the
eyes of those who have not wealth?
If these things are true, and every
one in Oregon knows they are, what
object would a corporation have for
wanting to trade him, a known friend
cf business, for a man whose only
reputation in that direction was the
bringing of several suits for the farm
ers of eastern Oregon in an effort to
lower freight rates on eastern Oregon
, hay to Willamette valley dairy farm
ers? The charge on the face of it is
preposterous so far as Steiwer is
concerned.
Secondly, what would a wealthy
and prosperous newspaper like The
Oregonian have to have $35,000 for
to induce it to support its own can
didate for the primary race?
Haven't we been told time and
again by Putnam and the Portland
Journal that The Oregonian opposed
Stanfield because he refused to ap
point Oregonian friends to public of
fice? Haven't these two ravens of
righteousness given this time and
again as the reason for The Oregon
ian's refusal to support Stanfield?
Do they now believe their former as
sertions were lies and that The Ore
gonian supported Steiwer for $35,000?
As a matter of fact, Putnam knows
as well as he knows his name that
the charges are utterly foolish. He
has bruoght them as a last minute
campaign trick to befuddle the voters.
He knows that Franklin Griffith, pres
ident of the Portland Railway, Light
& Power company, is in California,
very ill. He knows that Mr. Griffith
spent most of the summer in Canada
trying to recover his health. He may
not know, however, that it was report
ed in Portland before the Drimariea
that Mr. Griffith made the statement
that he had instructions from his
home office in Philadelphia to take
r,o official part in the primary cam
paign and to make no' contributions
unless it was to the support of Sen
ator Stanfiled.
This charge is a contemptible trick.
It is in line, however, with the whole
enort on the part of the democratic
bosses to elect Haney. They have
resortea to every petty piece of scul
ouggery they could think of. Their
yellow ticket charge fell flat. Their
$230 charge fell flaflt. Their conspir
acy cnarge leu Bat. They have sue
ceeded only in cajoling Stanfield to
run an as independent aeainst the
candidate of the party that made him.
That in itself should be sufficient
ward-heeling stuff for one campaign.
If there were time enough to get
the facts of the $35,000 charge to the
voters before next Tuesday there is
little aoubt but that the reaction
against this sort of dirty hypocrisy
would do much to make Steiwer's
vote still larger. The American peo
ple line clean sports and clean noh-
tics, but the entire campaign against
steiwer has been the hlthiest seen in
Oregon in many years.

one united. I expect the good sense
of the voters of the state to declare
itself on that proposition.
"I expect Steiwer, republican nom
inee for United States senator, to
win by a substantial plurality.
Patterson, for governor, will be elect
'd by an overwhelming vote. Oregon
must not lose its opportunity to elect
a man who will give the state a bus
iness-like administration. His acts
as governor will not be influenced by
considerations of political expediency,
"Cngressmen N. J. Sinnott, W. C,
Hawley and M. E. Crumpacker are
assured of re-election from the three
districts of the state. Justices of the
supreme court will be re-elected with
out opposition. I have the utmost
confidence in the election of Charles
A. Howard to the position of school
superintendent. L. L. Bean of bu
gent will undoubtedly be elected to
the public service commission. I look
for similar party success in the otH'
er state offices and through the var
ious counties generally.
"There is no valid reason for any
republican to desert his party on elec
tion day. There is every reason for
every voter to reaffirm his allegiance
to republican principles. On the de
cision of this state may hang the con
trol of the next senate by republicans
or democrats. President Coolidge is
looking this way for a vote of confi
dence and support.
"The battle is already won. Let
the republican ranks stand firm. Let
no last minute flood of falsehood or
partisan propaganda that may be
spread in a desperate attempt to mis
lead the voters stampede or dismay
us. Let nothing prevent us from do
ing our plain duty in electing the en
tire republican ticket. Get the vote
out and the victory is ours."

THE TRUTH ABOUT
SEED WHEAT BILL
Statement Shows Who Was Respon
sible for Putting Across Relief.
Senate Bill 64, providing for the re
lief of farmers in the frozen out dis
tricts of Eastern Oregon by authoriz
ing the State Board of Control to fur
nish seed wheat, was introduced by
Senators Butler, Carsner, Dennis,
Taylor, Ritner and Representatives
Fitzmaurice, Mann, Miller, Koberts,
Shumway and Tom. This information
was taken from the senate journal.
These senators and representatives
were all the members who represent
ed the area afflicted. Farmers and
bankers from the frozen-out district
appeared before the ways and means
committee in behalf of the bill. There
was very little opposition to the bill
after the necessity was made plain
to the legislature. That any one
member of the legislature should
claim the bulk of credit for this
measure is purely bunk.

"SERVICE AT COST."
Once in a while an orator makes
promises:
"Elect me, and I will take over all
the electric light and power com
panies and give the people service at
cost."
But the electric lgiht and power
companies are giving service at cost
today. Only, the cost includes $150,
000,000 of taxes which they have to
pay.
And it includes a fair return on
their bonds which are largely owned
by insurance companies and savings
banks; and on their capital stock
which represents the savings of 1,
000,000 customer owners.
Nearly every State has a regulating
commission. It decides what the fair
costs of the electric light and power
companies are and that is the rat?
which can be charged. When there
is no State commission each company
is under local public regulation.
Cost of living studies show that the
average is 65 per cent above pre-war
costs. In the face of these figures
the achievement of the electric light
and power industry is noteworthy, in
that the average cost of electricity
today is 10 per cent below pre-war
prices.
When the government tries to run
a business the costs increase, as Pres
ident Coolidge has pointed out. But
the government can regulate a busi
ness. That's what the governments
cf the .itates are doing with the elec
tric light and power business, and the
results show that they are doing it
very well. Watts Watt.
