A BUSINESS PROPOSITION.
IP YOTJ won? to hire ;i man to manage your private busi
ness you-would expend considerable thouidit upon tin
selection. You wouldn't close vour eves and select tin; ap
plicant who made the largest claims, or wore the prettiest
necktie, or shook your hand with the greatest gusto. Nor
would the fact that the man needed the monev, regulate
your choice. You would go into each man's record, ascer
tain all the facts you could and then select the one who
from past performances gave the best indication, of being
best qualified tor the position.
If you would do this when your private business i.s
concerned, why not do the same thing when the public
business is concerned? Far you are a stockholder in the
county, state or federal corporation, and inefficiency in
public office, not only effects your social welfare, but ef
fects your pocket book.
In about three weeks the primary will be held. A mul
titude of candidates are to be voted upon for local, state
and federal office. It is a physical impossibility to delve
deeply into the records of all of thein, But a few minutes
conscientious investigation, from the standpoint of prac
tical capability will eliminate a majority of them, and con
fine your vote at least to the more deserving.
Vv'hat indication has this man given of being better
qualified for the position to which he aspires than his
rivals; that ishould be the acid test of granting him sup
port. Forget about personal popularity, forget about the
flattery and cigars and baby kissing, exercise a fraction
of the hard headed discrimination you would exercise if
you were employing the man for yourself. Then, what
ever the result, you can at least have the satisfaction of
knowing that you, for one, discharged the first duty of
conscientious citizenship.
Those people who want to vote for the candidate best
qualified to beat .'Johnson in the west may find some food
for thought in the Literary Digest poll. In California
Johnson leads with Hoover second and Wood third; in
Oregon Hoover leads, with Wood second and Johnson
third; in Washington Hoover leads with Wood second and
Johnson third. In other words, Hoover has two firsts and
one second, Wood has two seconds and one third, and John
son has one first and two thirds.

PRINT PAPER
THE SHORTAGE of paper makes publishers weep;
and prices, they caper still higher each week. The
publisher's legging around in the mart; the publisher's
begging, with aches in his heart; for paper imploring,
he's down on hisknees; and prices are soaring like kites
in the breeze. And Uncle Sam's printers use paper as
junk; through summers and winters the documents
punk that no one confesses to reading, I wot, come forth
from the presses as mountains of rot. Oh, Uncle Sam's
spoiling the paper we need for news hot and boiling, t he
stuff wc read. He's blowing the boodle on volumes of
slush, on endless flapdoodle that's not worth a rush.
His basements are crowded admit it he limist wirh
printed stuff shrouded in cobwebs and dust. "Reports"
and such litter arc there by the stack; it makes a man'
bitter, sends pains np his back. And new stacks are
added to them every day big tomes that arc padded
with buncombe and whey. Ilia presses are creaking,
they groan and complain, with publishers shrieking for
paper in vain. ' ;
