VOTING FOR GOVERNOR.
Blue Mountain Eagle (Canydn City)
THE EDITOR of this paper as-
pires to no jjuuutaj jjicougs;

honors or emoluments.
voted for eovernors for over
vears and never have had as much
as a pleasant smile from one of
them and we would not toss a penny
who's elected governor. However,
we have our own notions, and they
are given here, not to influence any
one, but to express our own views,
for we expect to vote and we will
tell you how and why. As a demo
crat, of course, we would say right
off the bat that Bailey was the best
bet But here's the sticking point
Metschan was born and reared in
Grant county, and somehow we are
partial to the home grown product
just like we eat Sally Ann bread
and ask our grocer for Marigold
butter. We went to school with
Metschan 40 years ago, knew him
as a boy and he was a good kid.
Being a Grant county man and a
life long acquaintance is a stronger
tie than any mere political alleg
iance. And we think it ought to be
If we were to select whom we be
lieve the most unfit, most unquali
fied and least entitled man for gov
ernor of Oregon, we would name
Julius L. Meier. Why? We went
to school with him; knew him as
a young man and followed him in
his career. Going back to school
davs we recall this boy, and Fred
Jacobs, A. Walter Wolfe, Ira Pow
ers (a fine man). Bill Kearnan (a
constable) who got a fat job with
Julius. And there was Billy Swope
of the Mercury, scandal and black
mail sheet (now supporting Julius)
and Billy Souls and the gang. In
our humble opinion even Bill Lip-
man would have made a better gov
ernor. And then Julius thought be
would practice law and hung out
his shingle under the firm name of
JoseDh. Schlagle & Meier. Julius
did no practicing. Frank Schlagle,
a tall, lanky, hungry looking kid,
was a fine man. In these days
Geore-e Joseph hung around the
court house when Mose Block and
A. H. Maegley were scalping coun
ty warrants. Mr. Joseph wore
derby then. But we will pass that
up. Then Meier died, and Julius
father was a high type Hebrew,
fine gentleman. That's when the
store was down on First street Old
man Frank was as fine a man as
ever lived in Oregon. We don't
think much of his boys. But that's
aside, for Julius did not last long
as a lawyer and went into the store.
Frank and Joseph became fast
friends and when he died, Bert
Haney, his law partner told the
writer that the widow gave Mr.
Joseph a full power of attorney for
her interests in the store, and it is
our opinion that Mr. Joseph was
the controlling factor in the busi
ness. Of course Julius attended to
some things in the store when he
was there. We called on Mr. Joseph
in the office one -day. Joseph was
raised in Lake county and we asked
him if Julius had ever been to
Eastern Oregon. No, he's in Jeru
salem now. And Julius never was
in Eastern Oregon until he made
his recent trip to tell the people
how he was for them and loved
them. Julius Meier has never
shown the slightest Interest in Eas
tern Oregon or the state. Not one
dime in philanthropy has his name
been connected with. He is no such
character as Ben Selling. He's the
lucky, scion of millions of dollars
that have been used for Julius and
Julius alone. You say he wants
honor? He's had ample opportun
ity with his millions to build baby
homes, play grounds, beautify and
adorn his native hearth. Where are
they? The Oregon Voter shows that
when he contributed to a public
fund it had the string on it; buy
from our store. We might discuss
his platform; but he has none. He
tells you so. I stand in George
Joseph's shoes, says he. That's rot,
and you know it and is just about
as sensible as if he said I stand in
Abraham's, Isaac's and Moses
shoes. Knowing and following this
man's career, as we have for nearly
50 years, it is our humble opinion
that Julius Meier is the most un
worthy man who ever ran for gov
ernor in Oregon. And, yet we are
just revolutionist enough to have a
hankering to sit in the side lines
and watch the fun if he is elected,
provided certain newspapers don't
get the lockjaw. No, we would not
support Julius Meier tr he stood
four square on the Ten Command
ments. We have no recommenda
tions. Next time you are in Port
land go up to Mr. Meier's office and
have a nice chat witn mm, like
vou could George Joseph. Try it
Maybe he will invite you to nis
million dollar home. Maybe.
The above quoted editorial from
the Blue Mountain Eagle is an ex
ample of the work of the keen anal
ytical pen of its editor. Ranking as
one of the outstanding eaitoriai
writers of the state, the Eagle edi
tor is oft' quoted in contemporary
journals. In this instance, however,
we are amazed at the shortness of
his memory. Julius Meier did visit
Eastern Oregon once before, rie
once led a caravan into the sand
wastes to tell the folks out here how
the desert would blossom as a gar
den if they would help Portland
hold a World's Fair. But maybe
he didn't visit Grant county then.
We don't remember.

The Human Unit
"A sound mind in a sound body"
is the ideal condition of health.
When your physician is called to
see you, he views you critically,
first as a whole. Swiftly he scans
the person in front of him; he notes
position of body, color, expression,
movements or lack of them, utter
ances or absence of them; he notes
tremors, involuntary expressions in
muscles, nerve and bone; his sweep
is accomplished in far less time
than it takes to tell it he does it
automatically, often does not him
self realize the keenness and activ
ity of his own perception in arriv
ing at a conclusion as to what the
matter is.
The human as a unit is, indeed,
the first and most important con
clusion as to what the matter is.
The human as a unit is, indeed,
the first and most important con
sideration. I may say here quite
advisedly that over half the people
who demand the service of a physi
ian, are, first of all, "run-down" and
tired mentally.
TRUST BUSTING.
Record-Chieftain
I THEN a young

In these days of worry and ap
prehension the eternal watching
the clock makes men sick;
greatly lessens bodily resistance to
diseese. Timely vacations would
cure half of our patients, but sup
pose the worker, the man who is
working the tread-mill hasn't the
time or money to take the needed
vacation? The mind must keep on
and on, tearing down the wholly
subservient body!
How futile it seems to the physi
cian, to prescribe medicines to re
lieve a condition that only rest
mental and physical, can cure! How
helpless is the physician who is
called to minister in conditions that
he is powerless to relieve!
The purpose of this sketch, then
is to urge people to take advantage
of every moment of mental and
physical calm that presents itself.
No one is compelled to belong to a
half dozen organizations that con
sume as many nights each week
and destroy rest Take care of the
mind and the body will be a fitter

(Enterprise)
elk lowers his
head and shakes his antlers at
the old bull and challenges him to
battle for the lordship of the herd,
that is trust busting. When a year
ling rooster braves the venerable
cock which has ruled the roost
many seasons, that is trust busting.
Probably the young jellyfish dispute
the authority of the tough old fa
thers, and that also is trust busting.
From time immemorial, among men
and beasts, old dictators and rulers
are opposed by the younger genera
tion or the new champions, and psy
chologically it is all trust busting.
Agrarian uprisings, or farmers re
volts, were recorded centuries ago,
showing the agricultural elements
had become strong and independ
ent, and believed the governmental
or urban factions were oppressing
them one way or another. More re
cently, the same movement took
form in the populist party in the
United States, and Jerry Simpson
of Kansas and similar leaders were
captains of the embattled political
army that attacked Wall street, the
railroads, the grain dealers, the im
plement manufacturers, merchants,
money lenders; in fact attacked ev
erybody who seemed to possess
property and to be able and willing
to pay his debts.
Again we hear the call to battle,
the toscin is sounded as the fervid
writers say, and we are asked to
shoulder arms and march forth to
meet the enemies of humanity and
progress. It is the same old enemy
but the name is new, for now it is
the power trust, the hobgoblin horde
led by the bogie man of Wall street,
"And he'll get you, if you don't
watch out"
If we were in South America and
crops were light or prices low or if
the game had gone slowly and the
other fellow had had a long inning
and we never got to bat, to mix the
figure of speech we would issue a
proclamation of burning patriotism
and blow the bugle and call our fel
low men to arms and march on the
decadent, degenerate, disloyal, trait
orous buzzards who occupy public
office and fatten on the public trea
sury. Then our pure and lily white
host would save the country and we
would take our turn in public office,
to fatten on the public treasury.
Please excuse us if we decline to
stampede, if we remain cool and
keep our feet on the ground. The
sun still shines bright, the grass
grows green and the mountain tops
are white in Wallowa county.
ECHOES FROM THE COOS
COUNTY MEIER ENDORSE
MENT. Democrat-Herald (Baker)
NE of the most startling political
V-J happenings in Oregon history
was the endorsement of Julius L.
Meier, independent candidate for
governor by the Coos county repub
lican central committee last week
over the regular republican nom
inee, Phil Metschan. Copies of the
Coos Bay Times, Marshfleld daily,
reaching here, indicate that the
vote, taken by secret ballot at
meeting which included less than
half of the full committee has
aroused a storm of protest in that
section and seems more likely to
help Metschan than Meier, Inas
much as the Times is not support
ing Metschan and has seemed rath
er favorably disposed toward Meier
its statements are highly signifi
cant Republicans in Coos county resent
the attempt of the Meier support
ers to "steal" the G. O. P. organiza
tion, as they put it They charge
that the Meier endorsement follow
ed "the free circulation of Meier
campaign money over the county."
Meier is apparently putting on a
more expensive campaign than has
ever been weged in Oregon. Paid
workers seem to be on the job in all
parts of the state. And money
talks. But sometimes money can
be used to such an extent as to
cause an explosion. Newberry over
reached himself in Michigan and
lost his seat in the senate, although
he probably spent less than Meier
will in Oregon, considering the re
spective populations to be reached.
Thus far the Meier money seems
to be producing satisfactory re
sults without antagonizing the liber
al or radical element Perhaps the
Coos deal was so raw that it will
react against those who "fixed" it
On the other hand, perhaps not
SOME LIES NAILED.
Editor Gazette-Times:
The afternoon papers in Portland,
one of which last year received
from Meier & Frank Co., for adver
tising, $25,000, another $110,000 and
the third $140,000, are reiterating the
dirty falsehoods with which they
started the campaign. They con'
tinue to harp about the "secret bal
lot," used by the Republican Com
mittee, and try to make it appear
tt I that such a ballot was Illegal and
against ine spirit oi me uireci jjii
mary law. There is not one word
in the direct primary law which
can be construed to require a roll
call ballot by the committee, but in
the preamble and section one of the
direct primary law there are some
clauses which give foundation for
the argument of those who insisted
that the law provide for a secret
ballot Among the candidates, Mr.
Metschan and Mr. Hamilton favor
ed the roll-call ballot, while Mr.
Kay and Mr. Gates favored the se
cret ballot It is claimed that Mr.
Meier wanted a roll-call ballot but
Jack Peare, who was Mr. Meier's
chief booster in the committee,
made the most telling speech in
favor of the "secret ballot," voted
for the secret ballot, and later sign
ed the call for the convention which
nominated Mr. Meier, in which call
the secret ballot was denounced. If
Mr. Peare had made as strong a
speech for the roll-call as he did for
the secret ballot and had voted for
the roll-call ballot, the roll-call
might have won.
Then, they assert that the Com
mittee scrapped the Joseph plat
form, and that it nominated a man
"on a different platform." The fact
is that some of the leading attor
neys of the state declared that the
committee had no legal right to
adopt any platform whatever, and if
they did attempt to adopt a plat
form, such platform would not be
binding upon anybody whomsoever.
This opinion was concurred in by
the attorney general and by Circuit
Judge L. H. McMahan, the latter
having been a warm supporter of
senator Joseph. They keep assert-
ing that the Josepn piauurm wn
adopted by the people when Senator
Joseph was nominated, mere ia
not one word in the law wnicn, Dy
any construction, can be made to
sustain any such contention. If you
concede thta the people who voted
for Mr. Joseph voted also for every
plank in his platform, you must also
concede that the people who votea
against Mr. Joseph voted against
his platform. There is no getting
away from this. Mr. Joseph receiv
ed something over 50.000 votes,
while his opponents received over
94,000. So, until 50,000 can be prov
en to be more than 94,000, this argu
ment must be discounted about 100
per cent. But, regardless of what
the people may have meant by their
votes, the fact remains that the
committee did not scrap the Jo
seph platform, and no-one who is
honest will make such an assertion,
If money, misrepresentation and
mud-slinging can win, the outcome
is obvious, and we had just as well
hang out the sign, "None but mil
lionaires need apply for office in this
state.

Galatlans 6:13-26.
Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D.
- It is hard to find a new argument,
for the liquor question has been be
fore mankind from the earliest
days. The family of Noah, for ex
ample, had to face the shame and
disgrace of a drunken father. Today
no one undertakes to refute the
facts that science presents when it
demonstrates that alcohol is poi
son. These deadly reactions are al
ways exact and clearly understood.
Personal liberty is understood. Per
sonal liberty is about the loudest
argument that is presented in de
fence of the habit Here our les
son text meets us and shows that
Paul punctured that fallacy in his
letter to the Galatlans. Of course
people have individual liberty but
no one should do as he pleases to
the detriment of self or of society.
Real character makes one a ser
vant of mankind and therefore one
must not help forward the destruc
tion of the other man. Paul wag
safe when he followed the teaching
of Jesus and said "Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as thyself."
Paul had the right kind of psy
chology in presenting the matter.
He showed how to be constructive
If they would endeavor to walk in
accord with the Holy Spirit they
would at once cease to center their
thinking in themselves and see
what they might obtain for their
own satisfaction. All were aware
of the works of the flesh, yet Paul
catalogues them. Nearly every one
is incited or Increased by the use
of alcoholic beverages.
Then note Paul's contrast even
the cumulative fruit of the Spirit,
that matures when people seek to
do righteousness. This mastery is
gained through the Spirit and thus
men are free indeed to work out the
best In their lives.
