Tho in I'luoTK'e of Gorman ;hi!o.soihy that miht m:ikos ri'ht and that tlx; state is justified in making treaties scraps of paper was apparent in his rah of Panama from Colom bia which ho justified by the same logic that Germany justified the. rape of Belgium. JJoosevelt was formerly a groat admirer of tho kaiser because their characters and ideals were so much alik. Kaeh woi'ships himself as a glorified edition of humanity. Both are ciineteugraph heroes, posing constantly for the camera. The kaiser sought to ride the world, Roosevelt also would consent to be hereditary president. Both have a blood lust, which the kaiser gratifies by the slaughter of humanity and Roosevelt by killing wild animals. Roosevelt monopolized heroism in the Spanish-American Avar and had painted for tho eapitol a picture showing him charging up San Juan hill at the head of the Rough Riders, when as a matter of fact he was not at San .Juan hill. Had the battle occurred in tho present war, the ac count would have read: ".Demounted Rough Riders were repulsed in an attack upon Kettle hill, which was captured by negro troops." "When Germany siarted upon its mad career of con quest, Roosevelt stated, "It is omiuentoly desirable that the United Slates should remain entirely neutral, " and he justified 1he invasion of Belgium, saying in an article in the Outlook, September, 1914: "I ml nil re and rcxpect tho Herman people. I am proud of tho German lilnoil In my veins-. When a nation feels that tho lasno of a contest In which from wlm'.ever rouson, It fliula itself oiiKaKod will bo mil Irani lire or death, It In Inevitable Unit It ehould aet eo as to save llaelf from death and perpetuate llu i!fo (The Belgians) are suffering somewhat air my own German oaceaiors suffered when Turenne ravaised the Palatlnnto " ' tho surfnrlngs in by no moans as t?rent As to her (Germany's) wonderful efficiency her equipment, the foresight and decision of her Kenerul staff, her Instantaneous action, her Indomitable persistence there can be nothing hut I ho praise mid admiration due a stern, virile and masfi'rf.il people, a pcaplo entitled to hearty respect for their patriotism and farseeing self-devotion." Holding these sentiments, we are not surprised to find Roosevelt doing his utmost throughout the war to ereate division and dis-trd, distrust and suspicion in the United States, seeking to shatter public confidence in the gov ernment and prevent a united front to the enemy. Dis appointed ambit ion has made him ; a carping critic and common scold, consciously or unconsiously doing his ut most to aid the eneiny. Now that in spite of his carping, the war has been suc cessfully conducted and victory is iu sight, Roosevelt is turning his batteries of abuse against the peace program outlined hist January by the president a program that gave tho allies a moral issue the right of little poeplos to independence, that abolishes oppression of tho small na tions by tlie mighty. Such a program would prevent the subjugation and exploitation of Mexico and Pan-America and is naturally repugnant to the dospoilor of Colombia. So Roosevelt has dropped his fake cloak of progres siveness to join the old guard of reactionaries, profiteers and s; c ial interests to prevent if possible, Uirough a hos liiO congress, the adoption of the president's program for an abiding peace though these terms have been acclaim ed by our allies and approved by the American people. So the president has appealed to the people, to sustain him by returning a congress iu sympathy with his policies instead of one captained by Lodge, Penrose, Siuoot and ihe crowd that Roosevelt, formerly denounced but with whom is now cheek by jowl. A vote for Oswald West is a vote to uphold" Ihe presi dent and a vote for world wide democracy and against re actionary reconstruction in the days following' the war.

Never was Oregon short ( r of teachers. .Many Southern Oregon girls would enter teaching if proper opportunity was offered. Southern Oregon school boards prefer Southern Oregon girls. Soul hern Oregon parents would like them, if qualified. There is a nat ural tendency to put local teachers in local schools, and tho only way that they can be properly fitted for their all important work, is to provide teacher, training facilities near at hand. School districts pay, in the aggregate, largo sums on their common schools. The teachers make t he'schools. If they aro efficient, tho tax payers receive one hundred cents in service for a dollar expended. If (hoy aro not ef ficient, ti part of the public's money is wasted'.

First: One who serves you in tho olalo senate In order to give maximum nervice must have hart ocrvico in the house. - A place In the senate haa always been looked upon aa a promotion. My col loaKue3 of last session aro each eandidatea for his old position. If you are satisfied with my services In the house it is but proper and rh;ht that yr.u rho'.i!:! cxrcja thtt approval In sv!r.s your support to me for the senate. Second: I pledge myself to 'support, by voice and vote, the rati fication of tho National Prohibition Amendment. Third: t pledge myself to support all measures assisting in the whining of the war or to give aid, comfort or assistance in any man ner to tho boy 3 fighting our battles, or to their dependents. I be lieve that no sacritico wo can make will ever repay the iebt of gratitude, thin nation and humanity owes them. Fourth: The most. Important local county issue, at this time, Is good roads, livery one favois good roads. The last legislature passed an act outliuinT a road program costing approximately fifty millions of dollars, and appropriated six million dollars to start tho work. Tho people of Oregon later hy vote, approved this ipe sure. Jackson County had already expended five hundred thousand dollars on the Pacific Highway in this county under an understand ing that the other counties north would in timo, make corresponding expenditures, and a hard surface Pacific Highway constructed. Tha north counties failed to follow our lead and now the ,stato has, under the lant law mentioned, assumed complete charge.

I believe the one, thing Jackson County needs more than any other Is the construction of lateral roads, leading from the mines, timber, and isolated fr.rnis, and tho Improvement of ex isting outlying roads connecting tho smaller communities with the great arteries of transportation. With n proper apportionment In the new state plan of highway building Jackson County should havo funds to make the building of these many laterals possible. I do pledge myself that tills subject shall havo my main atten tion and effort and that I will do my utmost'to procure a fair and equitable Adjustment of the abovo matter.
