YT If KTJIKIi Johnson wins or loses in Oregon, his vott
V is nothing short of scnsatioiinl. In Multnomah, foi
example, he had the opposition of all the influential news
papers, throughout the state, there was no nppreciahk'
newspaper support and yet he carried Multnomah and it
leading in a majority of the comities. The republican or
ganization was opposed to him. There was no Johnson
campaign until the last week and then it was a very feeble
one, and yet he still leads and more than likely wiil main
tain this lead when the final count is completed.
"What does this mean ? It is futile to dismiss the John
son sentiment as a combination of the League of Nation
lialers, pro-Germans and JJolsheviks. Such n coniliiiuiHnn
could never niarshnll the votes Johnson marshalled. The
truth is Johnson has captured the independent and liberal
support wincli Jloover should have captured.
Ve venture to say the League of Nations entered ver
utile into the calculations of the average Johnson sup
porter. As a matter of fact, the old guard Republicans, who
voted for "Wood, are as bitterly opposed to the league tu
Johnson. The old guard oppose any league but they oppose
me cnanenge to tlieir autiiority which Johnson threatens.
more.
In fact, the election returns demonstrate that the ma
jority of the Republican party in Oregon favor the league,
as iar as their votes are concerned, for the combination ol
Hoover, Lowrten and ood votes total approximately 07,
000. to the 10,000 for Johnson. Moreover, the contest be
tween Stan field and Abraham was clearly between tin
league with reservations and no league at all, and the pro
league candidate won.
No, the league issue canjt be made a determining factoi
at this stage of the game, no matter how hard the cam
paigners try to make it so. The people, as a whole, are
more concerned with domestic policies. They want a new
political deal all around, and with Hoover throwing his
support to "Wood, they gave their votes to the. candidate
nest calculated, in their opinion, to make mufee meat ol
the si at us quo.
J his Johnson vote in Oregon with his tremendous-
strength in other states, demonstrates conclusively that if
the Republican nominee is not a man of progressive tem
per, who can he depended upon to end the strangle hold of
old machine, the independent and progressive vote will
go to the Democratic party. Hoover remains the one Re
publican candidate, vvbo can unite the Republican party
gain this forward-looking vote, and yet retain those prin
ciples of international policy, and proper domestic adjust

one in town, to knock the profiteering game, and bring
the prices down. The rich men in tlieir gilded halh
with poor men fell in line; we all were wearing overalls,'
and feeling mighty fine. At hist we'd found a useful
way to curb the rising cost, and make the profiteering
jay feel like an early frost. And then t he price of denim

same old gags, and crooned the same old tune. ' The

honest- workers everywhere in fig-leaves we're arrayed,
the dealer had no duds to sjlare we'd bought his stock

thing grew stale; we look and threw them in the creek,
or hung them on a nail. And thus a great reform, niv

Binder for You
The next time you
are in town, come in

Deere Binder. It's a
machine that will give
you extra years of ser
vice at less cost for repairs,
and will do better work
under abnormal field and
weather conditions than
other binders.
We want to tskow you
many points about this ma
chine not found in other
binders that you will rec
ognize as extra value.
Stronger wheels, heavier
frame, reinforced platform,
self-aligned bearings, roller
bearings, three packers in
stead of two, hardened
wearing surfaces on knotter
parts, ground and polished
packer shaft bearing nnd
quick turn tongue truck
are a few of the many points
about this binder that make
it serviceable.Iight draft and
economical to operate.
