WE RECOMMEND FOR YOUR VOTE
MARK HATFIELD
Hatfield's opponent, Monroe Sweetland, has
long been associated with the extreme left wing
segment of the Democratic party. He has even,
at one time, been associated with the socialist
party, so the argument we gave in our editorial of
three weeks ago apply more directly to him than
many other Democrats. In addition, we believe
Hatfield to be a much better administrator and
better qualified for the position of secretary of
state.
SIC UNANDER
Sig Unander has demonstrated his ability to
serve the people of Oregon as state treasurer. His
is not a job that is glamorous or frequently in the
headlines, but he has done the work well. His
opponent Is able, but Unander deserves reelection
to the post.
WE PICK BOB THORNTON
We deviate from our list of Republicans to
recommend Robert Y. Thornton for re-election as
attorney general. He has made some mistakes In
his nearly four years in office and early in his
term it appeared that possibly the Democratic
party was guiding his actions, yet he has showed,
particularly in his handling of the extremely dif
ficult and touchy Multnomat county vice probe,
that he is working for the best interests of air the
people of Oregon. His opponent, Carl Francis,
has recommended that the attorney general's of
fice be made appointive in effect a personal at
torney for the governor. We disagree with this
idea and we don't believe that it is in keeping
with the idea of good government in Oregon. We
recommend Thornton's re-election.
JOHN HOUNSELL FOR SENATOR
John Hounsell of Hood River has served two
terms in the Oregon senate and has done an
excellent job. His respect among his colleagues is
unquestioned, and he has a good understanding
of the problems of this section of the state. His
district has only this year been extended to in
clude Morrow county, but he deserves the support
of local voters.
ALLEN TOM KNOWS MORROW COUNTY
Charles Allen Tom has served this district very
well as state representative and his experience
and understanding is needed in the house. His
knowledge of tax and education problems is ex
tensive and the legislature needs the benefit of
his experience. He should be returned to office.
Three weeks ago this newspaper made its poli
tical position obvious when it ran an editorial
entitled "Why I am a Republican." In most cases
the arguments presented at that time apply to
individual candidates for public office, but this
week we want to briefly say why we believe in
these men. To present a full discussion of each
is prohibitive in a weekly newspaper, but a short
discussion is in order.
WE LIKE IKE
Dwight Eisenhower has lead America wisely
and well during the past three and one-half years.
He has brought peace and the closest thing to
peace-time prosperity we have seen in our life
time. Some segments of the country have not
fared as wellas others, but no reasonable-thinking
American can expect a perfect job in one term
or in two, for that matter. We believe the Re
publican policy will ultimately give America and
all of its people the greatest opportunity it has
yet had to live peacefully and prosper indepen
dently. DOUG McKAY
Wayne Morse has long since ceased to be use
ful to the state of Oregon and its people the only
job that he was sent to Washington to do. Doug
McKay can again bring respect back to the state's
delegation to the senate, and we need his ability
and understanding.
SAM COON
Representative Sam Coon has given Oregon's
second district excellent representation in the
House. His opponent, Al Oilman, has offered
nothing constructive in his entire campaign he
merely mirrors his bed-partner, Wayne Morse. If
Ullman's policies are Morse's, we want nothing
to do with either him or them. Sam Coon de
serves to be returned to the House of Representa
tives. ELMO SMITH
Governor Elmo Smith has given Eastern Ore
gon its first governor in many years, yet he Is a
big enough man that he will not let strictly East
ern Oregon ideas prejudice him in the decisions
he must make as head of the state. He is able
and sincere and deserves to be elected to a full
term of office.

TO THE
EDITOR . . .
Dear Editor
Though not now living In Mor
row county I am still a reader of
the Heppner Gazette Times.
I was very much in accord with
your editorial "Why I Am A Re
publican" I can say in no un
certain terms why I am a Repub
lican and not a Democrat. I have
a great amount of sympathy for
the good, well-meaning Demo
crats who are being mislead by
socialistic and communistic sym
pathising politicians who have
no foresight of how wonderful
real freedom Is or how important
it is that we keep this freedom.
It is easy to yell big business,
but the biggest business in the
world Is the Kremlin in Russia.
The next largest Is in Washington
D. C. It Is true General Motors,
Chrysler, Ford, Standard Oil,
General Electric, Westlnghouse
and Du Pont are all large, per
haps too large, but they have
given us many scientific Inven
tions and useful appliances be
sides millions of jobs. We have
our anti-trust laws and can hold
these concerns In check. They will
never sell us out to Russia. I
have no fear of that. But, on the
other hand, will In time of emer
gency help us little fellows
against the onslaught of the
PINKS.
When the politicians who are
full of half truths and falsehoods
get all power away from the
states, the cities and the indivi
duals, get control of all utilities,
timber, oil, housing, medical care
etc., and get It all centered In
Washington D. C, they are then
on third base, all that is left for
the home run is for them through
high sounding false promises to
get enough of their group elected
to the offices In Washington D. C.
then take over without firing a
shot. Then they can hand It
over to Russia or set up a com
munistic state here in America
and there will be absolutely noth
ing we can do about it.
Communism can never take
America over till it gets all
power vested in Washington D. C.
This trend is something to watch.
Eisenhower is trying to get the
power of government back in the
hands of the states to which it
belongs.
Wars In the past have been
fought on battlefields. Now they
are being fought in the minds of
men from Trojan horses planted
In our midst and in the midst of
other governments, using decep
tive terms, words mis-applied,
bringing about dissention and
causing them to dis integrate
from within.
I like to feel independent, earn
an honest living and feed myself,
not have the government take
from me all I can earn with one
hand while feeding me out of
their spoon with the other, hand.
This seems to be the trend of the
Democratic party and I am afraid
of it. It is dangerous in that it
points toward socialism and a
seemingly carefree state with all
freedom forever gone.
I am going to vot e for the
man I can trust and who has
something to offer besides half
truths and slander against some
one else.
I am going to be careful how I
vote, defend the right on which
this country was founded, and
the right to choose how I will wor
ship and how I will support my
self. A lover of American freedom,
I. R. ROBISON

The nation ever saw before;
In this generation or days of yore.
I'h referring to the G. O. P.,
And the Democratic race you see
The elephant will win, we hear
some say,
But listen to that donkey bray
It is a fact, his legs are stronger,
And his stride they say Is a little
longer.
And where I'm sitting In th
bleachers,
It seems to me these foamin
creatures .
Are really straining with all their
might,
And slinging mud both left and
right.
To view the scene it makes me
laugh,
While sitting with my better half
To see the donkey slip and slide
And slinging mud both far and
wide.
I must confess, for it is true,
The elephant I see is slinging
mud too.
And 'fore this muddy race Is o'er,
Well witness slime and mud
galore.
Mud, In fact, is filling the air
And spattering candidates every
where.
Till just about every candidate
Is loaded down with realestate.
Should we believe all we hear,
About the candidates far and

No candidate would be elected,
For every one would be rejected.
The party hero we know as Ike,
Whom many, many people like,
Might be defeated very badly
By that persistant man called
Adlai.
Some people think that man
called Estes,
For vice president is much the

Then again that man called Dick,
Estes might find it hard to lick.
And so the race goes on and on,
From day to day and dawn to
