The most rigid test that hts policies, pra ti ed over a period of twenty years, are Sound, Just and Efficient The Best Possible Proof that hts pledges to the citizens of Oregon are not mere "words” but “words backed by works” Those who know him believe IN him, believe IN his ABILITY, be lieve IN his POLICIES They know he will give Oregon a Clean, Impartial, Businesslike administration. They know it to be true, absolutely. Why? Bec ause In nineteen years he has employed 21.000 men. Ue has always paid good wages. He never had a strike or a personal injury suit. He built many houses "on time,” never foreclosed a mortgage or sued on a promissory note. He has helped many laboring men to acquire their homes, (their busi ness and their livelihood. These workers, who know him best, have endorsed him to a man, have anopted the above slogan and that’s “WHY” he Is “Your kind of a man for Governor. ” Paid Ad. issued by “‘Simpson for Governor League, 411 Selling Bld., Portland Prominent Progressives in Oregon ENDORSE CANDIDACY OF Ralph E.

Simpson, candidate for governor of this state, came to Hermiston by auto and for a couple of hours circulated among the people of this community. We had heard quite a bit about the gentleman’s good qualities before becoming acquainted with him on that day, but we had taken it all with a grain of salt in the belief that it was only pol itical buncombe let loose for his gubernatorial aggrandizement. But on meeting him we could see at a glance over the make-up of the man that our impression of him had been all wrong, and we now believe the high rating the gentleman has received by friends here and elsewhere is wholly justified. That we are not alone in our opinion is shown from the fact that all whom he met while here have signified their intention of voting for him for governor. His appearance, personality and open frankness at once dispells any idea that he has an ax to grind in seeking the highest office in the state, and reports from al over the country where he has campaigned show that the voters are rapidly coming to the belief that L. J. Simpson will be one governor of Oregon that will serve all the people in a just and equitable manner.
