Oregon's Billy Sunday fung a burning brand into the democratic camp tonight, and the fireworks aren't over yet for miles around this up-and-n-comlng city of Baker. The ,fat was in the fore for the democrats among those present and there were u-plenty, when Mrs. Han ley said smilingly and in her faclnat Ing ncver-raise-your-volco manner the "outside of Daniels one of tho very best arguments the republican party has Is Marshall." Applause that reverberated to tho Piiclrling fiills greeted her remark and in a jiffy she had the hide-bound AVilsonltes running to cover, for their dear William Jennings Bryan hasn't bad a square deal and bis legal sup porters know It. Mr. WilMin Arraigned. Mrs. Ilanley's talk tonight in Baker us a democratic arraignment of Wll son. This is our last speaking point in Eastern Oregon and interest is cen tering in the gospel of republicanism as preached by this feminine Sunday. She Is. truly a gifted hand-maiden a bearer of a torch aflamo with purpose. A woman said tonight that it is Mrs. Ilanley's earnestness that gets 'cm. Another says it is because she translates tho big issues into Kngllsh for women, still another says It Is Iter personal magnetism; that she just wooes and wills converts with the speed of 'her republican smile. I Vei'sonul Magnetism l'Vlt. Be Uiat as It may, it is true tbat women and men flock to -her side tho instant the talk is finished and light for the privilege of testifying, An old man said last night in La Grande: ".My woman wants to kiss you, but sh's afeard to ask, so I'm askin' for her," and Mrs. Hanley smiled and said ' yes, indeedy, as the wile, a motherly soul, hugged lior close." . ' Women arc forever crowding close to say wistfully: "Ob, Mrs. Hanley, you do make ft so clear, my poor bead l Isn't used to polliies and you've made things so clear." I YOUNG PEOPLE'S !

Tho church was tastefully deco rated with appropriate Halloween ef fects ajid accompaniments, jack-o-luu-terns forming a conspicious and pleas ing part. A,,,.tll.. f , . m'i'..w'.ihk ii-iii-miiucius were Nurv "cl by the young people of the Chris tian church, full justice being done to them by the assemblage. Tentative plans were dismissed by We young people to have Mcdford iu eluded on a Lyceum circuit. Tho bu reau under consideration presents an buuii cuurse mis season ana ono which will he of much instructive interest to the people of the com munity should the young people de cido to secure it.

URGE IRRIGATION FOR GOLD HILL DISTRICT On November 27th a petition will l.e presented to the county court call ing for an election prescribing an Irri gation district in the Gold Hill dis trict which will cover 1200 acres. The north end of the valley is practi cally a unit concerning the necessity lot water and there is no doubt that the election w ill carry. It Is also probable Grants Pass ranchers will extend their ditch to toeet the proposed system which Vould make a complete system cover ing about 12,000 acres. The water will be taken from Rogue river about Ihree miles southeast of Gold Hill KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 2 7. What is Willium Jennings Bryan doing in the presidential campaign? That has probably occurred to not a few who recall the drastic circum stances under which be parted of ficial company with President Wilson 17 months ago. One day with the ex-secretary of stato would convince the most skeptical that be not, only Is interested heart and soul in demo cratic success, but that he is giving more time, energy and money com bined than any other single man to bring about tho re-election of Wood row Wilson. Crowds well, the liko of them arc never seen except whon Bryan comes to. town,- Applause the' kind that rises from the hearts of a multitude, the approval that Is accentuated by the audible comment: "lie's right! He's right!" For the great commoner is making a stirring appeal. Ho touches on many issues, but the one that brings down the house every timo is his dis cussion of peace the Tact that the president has kept the nation out of war. Out in the west this Is tho Is sue which overshadows all others. and Mr. Bryan has had such a re ception in the 13 states he has al ready visited as to make him confi dent that the mountain regions of the went) will go solidly for Presldout Wilson. Four and five speeches i day for five -weeks has been Mr. Bryan's part in the campaign, and he has four more states to cover In the next two weeks. He is paying his own travel ing expenses. , The Kansas City meeting was tvnl. oal eff those he has had for many weeks. The big convention hall there was jammed to the doors, which means nearly 16,000 people. But It remained for Mr. Bryan to grip the audience with the kind of antummit. and npopal that he alone can make. He had hardly entorod tho hall in me midst of another speech when the crowd caught sight of him and yelled itself hoarse. When the commoner was finally introduced the thousands of neonln stood up and cheered. Mr. Hughes gets nothing of that kind; cvon Mr. Wilson seldom inspires such a demon stration. But with Bryan it Is con stant. And he told me afterwards he had never had such enthusiasm In all bis crmpalgn days. Just why that is may be bard to say; but I suspect he Is also making more votes for Mr. Wilson tllnn he over made for himself. Perhaps bis own explanation may account for It. 'I can make a much better argu ment," he told me. "for the re-elec tion of President Wilson than I ever could for myself. For four cam paigns I have been able to talk about promises only, but tcjday I can point to a record greater than any adminis tration of our generation. Deeds are so much more convincing than promises." ELECTION IS NOT PARTISAN AFFAIR D10TUO1T, Mich., Oct. 27. "This is not a partisan election, and people ure not talking about political par ties; they are talking about men, and Die principles they stand Tor," Henry Ford said today. "Tho majority of the people of this country are going to voto for Presi dent Wilson because they have faith In his ability and integrity. "I believe that the young men of our land owe a gerat debt to Presi dent Wilson for carrying us through critical periods without Involving us In the horrors of war. "Contrast the condition of the young men of this country today with that in Kurope. Our people are pros perous and happy; they have cheerful and comfortable homes, and their families are well provided for with the best the world affords. "Jn Huropc the ravages of war have torn psundcr tho very hearts of the people; Kuropc's sons arc dyiug by the tnousands, while famine and suf fering are almost universal in till belligerent nations. "Let me tell you that tho mothers of tho United States understand the situation just as well as he men do. Go into the homes of the people, and you nill find that tho women railize fully as much as the men that Presi dent Wilson has not only kept us out of war, but has given peace and pros perity to the greatest nation that the world has yet produced."

Angus McSweon, political- expert of the Philedalphla North American, tele graphing to that paper from Colum bus, says in effect that Ohio is lost to the republicans. His dlspath In part, says: "Unless the present drift of senti ment to President Wilson can be checked, this state will be overwhelm ingly democratic. So extraordinary is tills situation here that the republi cans are in a state of partial panic. The national ticket is rapidly being J'.andoned to Its fate by tho state campaigners, and the fact that Hughes is weaker hero than his party is apparent. "Tho Wilson candidacy is gaining lis strength in Ohio from two sources CROUP i uemii Eucalyptus ointment AT ALL OKUQ TORC Tubes 2bo jars goo A real mechanical marvel Is the new bookkeeping luachltio that has Just beeu Installed ut the Jackson County bank. The inachlno Is tho Burroughs addlng-subtractlng model and will greatly simplify the work of keeping tho bank's books. It auto matically prints dales, subtracts checks, adds deposits and computes new balances, all in ono movement of the carriage across the page, and with a speed that seems incredible. That Is to say, tho machine not only posts figures to the ledger page, but com putes - balances automatically as the posting is done. And this automatic bookkeeper can't mako a mistake His "stool brains" aro mathematically error proof. Depressing the key puts fig ures "Into" tho Burroughs. Touching a bar adds or subtracts the figures and prints them in even rows. And now matter how fust or how long you feed figures Into It. the machine ncvor gets tired, never lets errors creep In through "brain fag." It has just as lively nil appetlto for largo niiinbors as for small. As a depositor you might deposit $10,000,000 tomorrow, but tho machine would not have to exert Itself to enter tho amount, add your old balance, subtract your checks and automatically computo the cor rect now balance of your account. The only lime it balks is when you havo an overdraft. Then It warns the op erator, by the simple expedient of re fusing to figure any nioro without the "subtract" lover is held down, that your account Is overdrawn, and there upon proceeds to print a red "OD" signal opposito tho amount you uocd to get sutiaro with the bank. Heretofore .in posting to tho ledger it was necessary for a list of checks and deposits to be entered by hand In order for the bank to properly debit and credit ench customer's account. Tho bookkeepers had to add each list of checks mentally, also had to add all deposits and combine their total with the customer's old balance. When that waa dono, the total of all the checks had to be deducted from the sum of old balanco and doposlts to'determlno the new balance. Willi-; the machine all this is accomplished automatically and without any mental calculation whatever. The operntor has only to depress tho proper keys and touch tho operating bar. There will be a public demonstra tion of this machine at the Jackson County bank, Monday and Tuesday, Oct. 30 and 31, to which all are invited. RAND MCNALLY5C0.
