Republican Meeting
w
S everal republican candidates
for office in county, sta te and n a­
tion w ere present at the political
rally at th e high school gym nasium
last F riday evening and spoke of
the p rin cip les for w hich they stood.
J. L. Stafford presided a t the m eet­
ing and m ade a stro n g plea for p a r­
ty loyalty, urging repu b lican s to
vote the stra ig h t ticket at the com-
ing election. He Introduced John
L. Day, ch airm an of th e county r e ­
publican ce n tral com m ittee, who
in tu rn introduced the speakers.
In the absence of F rederick W.
Steiw er, republican cand idate for
U nited S tates sen ato r, Mr. Day
spoke briefly in his behalf telling
of his grow ing stre n g th throughout
th e d istric t. He called atten tio n to
th e fact th a t in the prim aries Mr.
S teiw er polled th ree votes to o n ^
for Stanfield thro u g h o u t the state,
and in U m atilla county life received
m ore votes th an all other can d i­
d ates for United S tates sen ato r put
together.
I. E. P a tte rso n , republiciyi can d i­
date for governor of Oregon, made
a good im pression on his h ea rers
and ap p a ren tly won th eir confi­
dence in his honesty and his busi­
ness ability. Mr. P atte rso n , who is
a s ta te se n ato r from Polk county,
is ch airm an of the w ays and m eans
com m ittee, and was characterized
by Mr. Day as “the w atch dog of
th e tre a su ry .” He is a successful
business m an and farm er, who be­
lieves th a t the governorship is a
business office w hich should be
conducted for the good of th e state.
T he sta te peniten tiary , said Mr.
P atte rso n , is th e only sta te in s titu ­
tion not now under the board of
con tro l, w here it should be. He
charg ed th a t th e p en iten tiary had
been a political football w ith
changes of policies under every
governor. He said th a t th e re have
been six w ardens in six years, and
also th a t parols a re too easy. He
prom ised to be, as governor, “ hard
boiled” in the m a tte r of parols.
P a tte rso n 's recom m endation of
the budget system as a basis of a
business like ad m in istratio n met
w ith the h ea rty approval of th e au ­
dience. U nder the budget system
th e governor w ould be responsible
for the money and how it was used.
A plan for arm ory building in the
various counties covering u period
of y ears should be m ade, said P a t­
terso n , and a program worked, out
by th e leg islatu re, the governor
and th e m ilitary au th o rities w o rk ­
ing to g eth er to the end th a t 'too
m any pro jects would not be under
way a t th e sam e tim e.
As to tax reduction, P atterso n
m ade th e sta te m en t th a t alm ost ten
m illion d o llars m ore have been
sp e n t for governm ental p u rp o se s in
th e sta te during the p ast four years
th an d u rin g the four y ears preced­
ing.
Ju d g e M artin W. H aw kins em ­
phasized his slogan, “fair and im-
p a itia l ad m in istratio n of the law ,”
in a b rief speech in w hich he
show ed th a t this had been his effort
in the p ast and would be in th e fu-
ture. Ju d ge H aw kins is nom inated
to succeed him self for the office of
c irc u it judge, d epartm ent No. 4.
C ongressm an M. E. C rum packer
discussed the p rinciples of govern­
m ent, w hich he said should p re ­
vail. He is on th e riv ers and h a r ­
bors com m ittee of the house of re p ­
resen tativ es, w hich is an Im portant
and exclusive com m ittee. T he im­
p ortance of th a t com m ittee to this
d istric t is ap p a ren t when it is
known th a t y ea rly fifty m illion dol­
la rs have gone Into h arbor im ­
provem ents here.
Clay S. Morse, th e last speaker
on th e program for the evening,
enun ciated some of th e principles
for w hich he would stand as coun­
ty com m issioner If chosen for th a t
position in th e com ing election.
Among them w ere th e elim ination
of to lls on the in te rsta te bridge, the
prevention of accidents on the
highw ays and proper road con­
stru ctio n , which would bring about
the best developm ent of th e county.
All of th e speak ers expressed a p ­
p reciatio n of the m usic furnished
for th e occasion by the high school
o rc h e stra under th e direction of
Miss Alice P rindle.

THE FISH WHEEL MEASURE
The in itiativ e hill, on the ballot

It w as initiated by the Oregon S tate

So it has p re tty stro n g and reliab le
