Thomas W. Lawson, ureal friend ot tho
people, who for the post quarter of n cen
tury hits boon fighting Trusts and Frcnxled
Finance, nnd who comes ench year to Ore
gon to rest from his arduous duties, writes
to tho voters of Oregon as follews:
Supposo YOU had como over 3000 miles
to Oregon to rest up from twenty-hour-a-day
body and mind drudgery! Sup
poso during YOUR rest-up YOU could
not shut out from tho natural beauties or
YOUR rest-up plaro the suffering and mis
ery of others! Suppose In tho middle of
YOUR rest-up YOU saw an opportunity to
do something towards alleviating the suf
fering and misery ot others nnd supposo
YOU took up YOUR pen went hack to tho
drudgery YOU had fled from nnd formu
lated trls page and personally paid tho
money to get it whoro It might help tho
suffering nnd misery which had roused
YOU to action.
No state in the union has a better stock
of statesmen raw matcrinl than Oregon,
yet a visitor from Mnrs to Washington In
the post two years, tho most vital two
years in tho past fifty, In search of tho ten
greatest law makers, would depart with
tho first and second ten without knowing
that Oregon was ono of tho United States.
I mean by this no disparagement to tho
West, or Its able representatives, for num
ber ono on tho Martian's list would be Sen
ator Owen of Oklahoma, with Dornh of
Idaho n closo second.
Does any student of affairs who-hns ab
sorbed tlio mental atmosphere of theso real
statesmen or who observed the campaign
of tho lncxperlcnccd-in, politics college
teacher, Woodrow Wilson, believe that any
of tho thrco would allow such a campaign
ns tho ono I havo been watching In Ore
gon? i
Somo cute politician may say that tho
reason for Candidates Chamberlain's and
Ilooth's prominence over Candidate Han
Icy, is their better equipment for the of
fice, to which I answer: The study of
public men and public affairs is my profes
sion. I know tho statesmen of yesterday,
and day boforo yesterday, I know those of
today! I havo studied Senator Chamber
lain and Mr. Booth nnd Oregon affairs and
I know Mr. Hanloy, Have seen him In
action cast ns well ns west, and I am ab
solutely unbiased In my views of all three.
- With my knowledge ot tho men nnd Uic
job nwaiting Oregon's next senator, I am
firm In my convictions that I do Mr. Han
loy no favor or his opponents any Injus
tice, when I unqualifiedly affirm my be
lief that at tho cud of Mr. Hanlcy's first
year In tho Senate he .will crowd Senators
Owen and Dorah for first place on the list
of real statesmen doers.
IP WILLIAM HANLEY IS HERALDK1)
TUB XBXT UNITED STATES SENATOR
FROM OREGON. THE WORLD WILL HE
ON ITS TOETII'S TAKING NOTICE. AND
OREGON FOR A LONG TIME AFTER
ELECTION WILL DE ON THE MAP OF
THE UNITED STATES IN LARGER.
HRIGHTER-COLORED LETTERS THAN
EVER DEFORE.
In tho event ot Mr. Hanlcy's election,
tho world will ask: Who is this man who
has smashed tho two powerful political ma
chines, nnd beaten down odds that ap
peared unsurmountable? What his se
cret? Whence his power? Why his
need?
And tho answer will be: His personal
ity, llfs simple, old-fashioned honesty.
Ills country's and his people's perld. Tho
world will bo told this by n legion of slin
plo folk, by a legion ot tollers, by a legion
of oppressed and suffering, as, with ono
voice, they sheut: HE IS WITH US. FOR
US. OF US. HE HAS HEAD, HEART.
SOUL AND CONSCIENCE, ALL OF
WHICH WILL HE WITH US. FOR VS. OF
US. WHEN HE IS IN THE NATION'S
HALLS OF l'OWER, AS THEY WERE
WITH US. FOR US. OF I'S. WHEN THEY
WERE AS LOW LY AS WE.
Messrs. Chnmborlaln and Booth are the
candidates of mighty parlies and tho
mighty parties havo a mighty press. Either
could havo given Oregon voters a campaign
worthy of a senatorial candidate. Mjr.
Hanloy has no press. Ho and his helper
can only get to you as I do, by buying ex
pensive advertising spnee; but, oven with
this almost prohibitive handicap, I will ,
give on my Idea ot tho kind of cduca
tlonul matter which should bo submitted
to Oregon voters at this critical election.
As you read my facts recall whether you
havo been shown any of them In tills cam
paign. Then ask yourself, Js It possible
thut they arc facts, and It they are, should
Oregon miss this opportunity ot sending to
tho Scnato tho man who understands tho
real conditions of tho country, or tho man
who knows nothing of tho burning ques
tion of tho times? And if they aro not
tacts how can their fallacies be punctured?
This latter will bo simple.
THE QUICKEST AND MOST FEASIBLE
WAY TO PUNCTURE THE FALLACY OF
MY ASSERTIONS WILL BE FOR SENA
TOR CHAMBERLAIN AND MR. BOOTH
TO DO SO IN MY PRESENCE, AND MUCH
AS I WOULD DREAD THE ORDEAL OF
MEETING THESE SEASONED DEBAT
ERS, FOR I HAVE NOT BEEN. ON THE
PUBLIC PLATFORM. EVEN FOR A SIN
GLE SPEECH IN OVER THREE YEARS. I
WILL AGREE TO BE ON ANY PUBLU2
PLATFORM IN OREGON, UPON NOTIFI
CATION THAT MESSRS. CHAMBERLAIN
AND BOOTH WILL BE THERE, BE
TWEEN NOW AND ELECTION.
Why is tho cost of living hlgji?
Becausa there is of tho country's sixty
billion dollars of stocks and bonds draw
ing 6 per cent, three billion dollars an
nually thirty billions which aro ficti
tious, fraud made, more printed paper
created by tho trick.
THE COST OF LIVING CANNOT DE
CLINW UNTIL THESE THREE BILLION
DOLLARS OF ANNUAL TRIBUTE HAS
STOPPED.
This Is tho greatest question before tho
American people, for it means that It it Is

WILLIAM HANLEY
For United States Senator
HANLEY TIDAL WAVE SWEEPS STATE
. Why? Because lie has done things for Oregon, .lie wants (o do things for Oregon.
He has a definite plan Lor the unbuilding of this state. Politicians can't fool all of the
people all of the time. They have waked up to the fact that they have had nothing from
machine politics and machine politicians an d machine newspapers, lo', these many years.
"Why should the people want Chamberlain? "What has he done? He won't tell.
"What is he going to do? lie won't tell. Ho brushes aside vital questions concerning his
votes in the senate and official acts as senator under the pretext that he won't 'answer
questions from a printed circular issued by the William llauluy committee. They are
the people's questions whicli any citizen has a right to ask a public servant. Does any
one imagine Senator Chamberlain would quarrel about who asked the questions, if he
had a worthy answer to make, which would exalt his campaign? Ho has brushed aside
contemptuously all inquiries into his past o ITicial conduct. He has but one wail
"elect me or you discredit President Wilson." Think of it! Wilson's credit depending
on a man like Chamberlain, who twice betrayed the president in his hour of need, and
now clings to his coat tails as a drowning fly to a straw. The man who fought the
administration may be forgiven by the prcsi dent, but he has still to reckon with the
president's friends. Thcyare determined to prevent him from betraying the president
again. It isn't necessary to take chances. Hanloy is one of tho original Wilson men.
The administration never woke up tx any 11 ecd for !Mr. Chamberlain until very, very
late in the day, and then only when the whole senatorial push sent Owens to demand
some help as a parly measure. Jf Olcorge Clianiberlain can treat thu people with a con
temptuous silence and refuse to account lo them by so much as a single syllable and
fool them once more, then they deserve another barren six veal's.
Booth is out of the running. AVe drop him lo save space.
A Hanloy tidal wave is sweeping the state. The people have discovered that he is
a progressive statesman and not a politician . Oregon must be developed and Hanloy is
the only candidate with a large constructive plan for its development. The silent,
potential strength of Hie state, aside from politicians and special interests, has been
mustering back of Hauley for about ton days and the landslide is starling. Every
secret vote in Oregon will bo cast for Hanloy on his own account, and Wilson's.
The great German-American societies ainl tho Swedish societies have indorsed
Hanloy. The Portland News is for him. Tho Labor Press and labor' are for him. The
timid, afraid-I-will-throw-away-my-vote fellows arc climbing onto the band wagon. Tho
plain masses of the state want relief, not politics. William Hanlcy's election will be
their own triumph. It is tho people' chance lo win a big victory. Hanloy is elected.
not ctoppod if it continues tho peoplo
will, when they realize, as thoy are be
ginning to realize, that they cannot meet
tho cost of their living with their Income,
revolt against Us collection.
Notwithstanding this Ih tho grcatost
question of the times, can any voter of
Oregon rccal a single refcronce to It by
Senator Chamberlain or Mr. Jlooth?
Docs It occur to you when you obsorvo
the struggling father, worn mother, and
little assisting tots working from sunrise
to sunset to build their home and compel
their now-born ranch to give thorn the
prohibitive cost living' and tho shylouk
usurers of tho System the mortgago Inter
est, and when you Jater observe tho sullen
father, the frenzied mother and tho weep
ing tots navigating tho dusty roads for a
now homo to rcpluco tho foreclosed one,
M
if
' i- and when you listen to tho talus of hay
- sold at less than cost nnd cattle sacrificed
' to meet tho loan company's queer '10 por
' rent lntercst-and-you-scll-thomat-our-prlco
contracts, and then you recall tho taleH of
the mlddlo west prosperity, and thoso ot
the eastern banks a-hurst wlthto-be-loauod-to-'ul-Strcot-at-2
per cent billions of thn
people's savings, and then when you read
- in tho presH of tho great eastern cities of

alty, do y6u not feel like dropping to your
