“Hello Judee”
If reports heard here and else­
where over the state may be relied
upon the man who goes into the
state house at Salem after January
1 to greet the state treasurer will
say,
“Good morning, Judge Maloney."
As explained by D. H. Nelson dur­
ing an interview with this paper
yesterday the regular republicans
are generally friendly to Judge Ma­
loney because they do not like his
opponent. All over the state promin-
ent men of the G. O. P. faith are
openly supporting the democratic
nominee and this gives the judge
quite a break. That fact alone might
easily mean his election.
On top of that came Mr. Holman’s
war on Governor Meier's purchasing
agent. The governor was elected as
governor. Mr. Holman was not, and
the governor should know how to
select and direct a purchasing agent.
But Mr. Holman seined to hold dif­
ferent views and that's that. Under
the circumstances it will be natural
for the governor's friends to support
Judge Maloney. Why not?
Out of all this springs the belief
that the Pendleton man will be suc­
cessful. With the democratic vot;
and the friendship of the two formili
able elements in the republican
camp it looks like victory, sure en­
ough.
Well, If the judge Is elected the
people of Oregon will not be sorry..
Be has ability and experience, he
has integrity and he is sincere.
Those qualities inspire confidence,
regardless of partisanship. Further­
more, there are thousands of people
all over Oregon who know that the
judge Is as described herein and they
are passing the word along, The
writer has run across many such
people during the past month and
they are putting their hearts into
it. .It is not a political matter with
most of these people. It is personal.
They want nothing except a chance
to step into the treasurer’s office
next year and say,
"Hello, Judge.”

True, they have adjourned without
getting anywhere in the way of per­

balancing their budget by imposing
a tax on many of the necessities of
the common people who are already
taxed to a financial death. They
have acted, speaking of the body as

The Swift & Company national market was
made by digging up demand wherever it exists in
the United States, by advertising brands of high
quality. Swift’s Meats, Swift’s Premium Milk Fed
Chicken, Golden West Fowl, Swift’s Brookfield
Butter, Eggs, Cheese and many other products.
To operate a national market means much more
than mere buying today and selling tomorrow. It
means performance of intricate services in the most
economical way. Swift & Company in the past year
has cut every expense over which it had control.
Its service charges are low and profits are small-
over a period of years they have averaged less than
half a cent a pound of all products sold.
