For State Senator
It. P. NEIL
DeniQcratiQ Nominee for State Sena
tor, from Jackson County; n
$tands for Statement No. 1.
HAWLEY'S
THE utter incapacity of Congressman llawicy to grasp
the real issue of the campaign and to understand
the wave of popular protest that is sweeping the country
against misgoverninent is again portrayed in an open let
ter which he has ,iust addressed to the Voters of the First
congressional district.
This communication consists of a bunch of platitudes
and generalities that tell nothing except the egotism of
the "writer the impenetrable, bombastic egotism that is
the candidate's chief characteristic.
Mr. Hawley prates about the need of lower tariff. "Why,
then, did Mr. llawlev vote, without urotost. for tho in-
Payne-Aldrich tariff
its ot the trusts at tlio expense ot the consumer?
Mr. Hawley says he does not favor a protective tariff
on non-compotitive articles. Why, then, did he vote with
out objection for schedule after schedule, placing- high
tariffs that benefited only monopolies?
Mr. Hawley states that ho favors a change in the rules
of the house. "Why, then, did he vote times innumerable
against the changes sought by the insurgents? "Why was
he a faithful henchman of Cannon throughout the session,
. !-. .
opposing all changes?
Mr. Hawley says he believes in the rule of the people.
Why, then, did he go into the assembly and make a speech
there favoring the restoration of government to the poli
ticians?
Mr. Hawley says that he has "no interests to serve but
the public interests." "Why, then, was he a faithful serv
ant of the system, voting for their every measure, obey
ing tneir every order against the public interests?
Mr. Hawley saj's he favors the direct primary. Why,
then, did he lend the prestige of his position to the effort
to undermine it? Why is he opposed to Statement One?
Mr. Hawley asserts that if re-elected he will "continue
to support effective and progressive legislation for the
general good." What effective and progressive legisla
tion did Mr. Hawley ever initiate or champion? You
Search the Congressional Record in vain'.
Mr. Hawley brags that he has "traveled extensively
over the district at my own expense to secure information
as to the needs of localities." Mr. Hawlev has made two
trips through the district, the last purelv to look after his
political fences before the primary. He draws $7500 a
year and mileage and is .supposed to tour the district out
of it. Who did Mr. Hawley expect would pay his expenses
iui. Lueau inpst
Mr. Hawley meets none of the issues of the campaign,
refuses to discuss projrressive policies. Hn fnils tn
He
on record for Statement One or against Cannonism. What
he does say sounds insincere in view of his stand-patl'ec-ord.
Deeds rather than words count, and Mr. Hawley 's
deeds belie his promises.
EX-PRESIDENT OF
BUYS PLACE HERE
Man Who Has Been In the Employ of
James J. Hill for Past 20 Years
Is so Well Pleased by Visit to This
Valley That He Invests Came
With John F. Stevens for Visit.
Francis E. Clark,' ex-president of
the North Bank railroad, and a Hill
official for twenty years, who ac
companied John F. Stevens on a tour
of investigation of the P. & E and
other possibilities of southern Ore
gon, has shown his faith in the fu
ture of Medford and the Rogue River
valley by a substantial investment in
property on the heights east of the
city. The property purchased in
cludes the Armstrong chicken farm
and fourteen acres adjoining and tho
consideration for the tract was $20,
000. It is understood that the tract,
winch many sightly residence locu
tions, will bo cut up into small tracts,
and sold for residence purposes, af
ter improvements have been made in
the way of parking and the building
of driveways.
Tho deal was made through the
agency of Cusick and Myers.
BOB WHITE QUAIL

State Game Warden Stevenson, be
sides other matters needing 4iis at
tention, is looking after the proposi
tion of breeding "Bob White" quail

and Mr. Stevenson is now arranging
for the distribution of a number of
pairs of tho birds 'n favorably locat
ed districts, whoro they will bo pro
tected until until the lime arrives
when thev can take eare of them

PruparatiMiiH for taking tho royal

Is thought that they would not be

Official messages convey little in
formation of conditions-, the only in
timations being the constant orders
for tho transfer of troop. Tho offi
cial dispatches, however, invariably
assign the movements of the tinny to
the operations in Morocco, each or
der being accompanied by the sterci
typod phrase, "for Bprvico in At net."
While many garn'isoiiH in the xouth
