No doubt ' e you are weary of it all, and nobody X7ITH this information, and with such an attitude adopted, blames you lor being tired. Most of , VV . . ,. ... us are so pisyed out, from pontics. w nall h8v n0 fear regarding the result of the primary tnst if the csndidates gave a voters' election, on May 20th. For under such circumstances, that Ball, the attendance would be limited I ,. ., , . . , , ,. . . to the candidates and deputles-eleot. ; reauu can t fail but represent, not only the will of the ma it sure keeps the candidates bmy jority, but the decision of an enlightened and discriminating bopping from speeches to danoes to . ball games, and shaking hands. Some electorate. of the smart ones are reported snoop- ' Ing around prayer meetings. Now there are 17,838 of us voters, and under the law we have the last and deciding shot at the mocking bird, If nothing trivial comes up to provide an excuse for not voting, auch as being invited to a ptcnlo on May 30. You are urged to vote even if the family auto la in hock, and you have to walk two blocks out ot your way. Tou ought to do this much for America gladly. v ' ! There Is going to be considerable lying at the tall-end of the campaign unless campaigns have changed a lot since 1030, when we were lied to about getting no electrto light bills on the 10th Inst, Many voters who were fooled then are now aotlve, try ing to get fooled again. The lies come biggest the last 80 hours, when they can't be contradicted. As only 14 candidates can be elected, the S3 defeated candidates will think some of the voters lied to them. The voter has the last edge, as he gets his lie In last when It counts the moat. We warn you against the 11 o'clock ca nard. Never trust a oanard. If you are a Democrat, which we nope you are not, don't let your In herited fondness for canards get the best of you after 11 o'clock. Also remember that the ability of a can didate to quote Wood row Wilson, Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jack' son disqualifies him for the Job he seeks. If he remembers something smart that Abe Lincoln General Grant, or Cal Coolldge let fly, he not a total loss and a vote can be wasted on htm. Don't vote for a man who cannot awlm, or Is mean to his mother. The women voters should not vote for such, even If he Is good looking and has ears like Clark Oable. In weighing a candidate, be sure his wife, or somebody he has prom ised to appoint a deputy, do not slip their hoot on the scsles. All the candldatee are fair dancers. There la nothing like a good waltxer to look after the county business In an eco nomical manner. No deputy Is fit who has not laid up against the BUI Oore bank since the Wall st. crash. It looks like there would be an over production ot deputies. In a raw days, as voten, you will be called upon to use what la called "the sober second thought" before you mark your ballot. The candidate who asks you to do this Is not In sultingly Intimating you were drunk on the first thought, but he would If he thought It would help hlin any. Right now the vote Is being chaaed more than the dollar, or the Klamath Indians In 1871. In conclusion we will give you a few pointers on how to Judge a can didate: First, ascertain It all opposed to Mm are grandchildren of Captain Kind and guilty of all kinds ot low grade villainy. Tou know all the virtue of the county Is not rammed Into the bide of any one aspirant, even if he doea think so. If, In shaking hands, your arm Is tore loose from the socket, the same thing la apt to happen to the door of the court house safe. Don't believe It, if you are told an aspirant Is "a tool of the million aires." Besides, experience teachee that a "tool ot a millionaire" Is a better epender than the millionaire. The valley can stand a tew more mil lionaires and their tools. Tou will find that all the candi dates are human and not aa bad as some of their speeches sound. At this writing all confess they have worked very hard all their days. The rest ot us aliens the same. Borne have faults and some have fallings, and some have both, even as you and I. So long until tne next time, and please excuse poor pen. Tour friend, AD ASPBRA ASPKRA,, (Name on file). P. 8. Some of the boys went to hold a Thank Oodl the Election Is Over Week. Let me know your views on tba matter. How IN another column of thu paper today we are printing thumb. A nail sketches of the candidates in the democratic primary, In a subsequent issue we republican candidates. We hope our readers will read over these sketches carefully, and be aided in making their final selections, by the informa tion disclosed. There has been no partisanship, no favoritism in the com pilation of these records. As ftr as is humanly possible, the salient facts concerning each candidate, have been presented, and nothing else. Some of the sketches are longer than others. The sole reason is that some of the candidates have taken a more active part in public affairs than others, and consequently more information concerning them, is available. IN publishing these sketches the Mail Tribune is simply carry A ing out a political policy which was established many years ago, and has been consistently maintained ever since. This policy ib based upon the conviction that it is not the function of a newspaper to tell the people HOW to vote. It IS the function of a newspaper to give the people all the information available concerning candidates and issues, so they MAY VOTE INTELLIGENTLY. ""PHESE sketches are given as an aid toward that end. With A this information, which we regard as reliable, supplement ed by such added information, as the individual voter may obtain, we are going to ask our readers to do one thing more : In the light of this information, adopt the same attitude toward the selection of these candidates for publio office, you would adopt toward the selection of candidates for private office toward applicants for jobs, in your own business, or own household. mi. m: t. - : .1 . ; -T .1.

But this referendum proposal has nothing to do with the desirability or undesirability of prohibition. It has ONLY TO DO with government in this oountry, the right of majority rule. .AH that its proponents ask is that the people of this country be given the opportunity to express their will at the polls, whether they want prohibition to remain as it is, or whether they want a change. THAT'S ALL. Why any oppose suoh a common sense proposal, is more than we can e e IF a majority of the people of this country favor prohibition, how can Mr. Clark, or anyone else, object to that sentiment finding expression at the polls. If a majority of the people DON'T FAVOR IT want a change haw can Mr. Clark, or anyone else, deny them the right of making THAT desire known. , Certainly Mr. Clark can't maintain, he believes a law which a majority of the American people don't want, should be forced down their throats, that the right to make laws of this govern ment, conform to the will of the governed, ended with the pass age of the 18th Amendment. And yet if that isn't his contention, WHAT ISt We believe the voters of Oregon would appreciate it very much, if Mr. Clark would let thera know. tpartnts THE ONLY Cllll.n By Alice Judson Peele It Is a matter of common observa tion that the only child tends to be especially eelflah and to remain long er emotionally dependent upon his parente than a child who has brothers or sisters. Never hss It been necessary for him to make way for a younger brother or sister. Never has he had to share his toys, his pleasures or his parents' love. It is difficult for him to form progressively the normsl attachment to others, to friends, to members of the opposite sex thst should occur at different stsges ot his develop ment. Typically he can be drawn only to someone who loves htm as wholly snd uncritically as his parents have alwara done. He can only care even a little tor someone who already adores him. This profound self oenteredneas Is often dlagutsed by an Ingratiating charm of manner which enables him to mske superficial adjustments with great esse. But In his Intimate, vital relationships he fells. There ought not to be only chil dren, but since thera ere, their handi caps may be eomewhat offset by a wise bringing up. playmate, should be cultivated early and assiduously.

At Nagasaki, Japan, the united states consulate was bombed, just before noon yes terday, supposedly from a pass ing automobile. The fire was put out, nobody hurt. That doesn't make this government "gravely anxious" but it should remind us to keep our defense apparatus in good or der and not to tie ourselves up in any world court. Many people in this world are worth while, although they rarely appear in print on newspapers' front pages. Mrs. E. Ozonne ot New York lost her pocketbook containing $18. borrowed to pay her rent. Mathew Boran, conductor of a Fifth avenue omnibus, found the purse, on the floor ot his omnibus and returned It to the loser. She sent him 83 "for his honesty," writing, "As you could see by the papers Is my bag I had not paid my rent In three months, wish I could send you three times as much, but I have been out of work for seven months and I have a boy to support. I cried aU sight when I lost the money." Matthew Horan returned the three dollars with "your thanks are suffi cient reward." Merchants, newspapers and the publio are Interested In proof ot the fact that It pays to advertise ener getlcally, when you offer what the people want. This was demonstrated In Boston last week by Houghton & Dutton, one of the two oldest depsrtment stores In America, advertising "Houghton's Today" sale for last Sat urday. Anthony W.

Advertising pays. It you know how, have the goods, and use the rlg,ht medium. . The patient American people are actually, tired ot being robbed through taxation. A Wall Street man yesterday re marked: "You would be surprised to know how many of my frlenda have taken the trouble to look up the names ot their congressmen, so they could write about taxes." In New York City, at least four million Americans could not tell you the names of the men thst represent them Is congress. A New Jersey farmer aatd:, "We are tired of seeing signs on gss sta tions, telling about Increased taxes. We are tired ot buying taxes, instead of gas, and we are not going to tand It." In New York City, real estate own ers notify their local government that there ought to be some end to robbery through taxation.

' Autointoxica tion means pois oning of the body by Its own excretlone. It Is a morbid, de pressing theory based on total Ignorance of physiology, psth ology and hy giene. So far aa the layman's experience or ob servation la concerned, autointoxi cation can't happen, and that's an assertion that defies contradiction. Autointoxication may occur we are not certain about this, but It la fslr to assume that It may occur In the course of certain very grave Illnesses. If or when It does de velop as a result of such a grave or fatal Ulness, no cathartic, en ema or other such measure can be of any avail. Radical surgical at tack It usually the only remedy that can save the- patient In such a plight I am perfectly conscious that some tine old physicians have stout ly espoused the notion ot autoin toxication, and that here and there a nice easy going old timer still prescribes remedies or treatments which purport to correct or over come such self-polsonlng. That does not In the least alter the fact that autointoxication can't happen ex cept In the last few hours ot some fatal illness and then It Is only an effect of the Illness. Any victim of this morbid ob session who Is sophisticated enough to discriminate between competent and Incompetent teachers, between honest physicians and humbugs, be tween scientific health advisers and faddists, can readily learn by keep ing tabs on the Ideas or teachings of these various Individuals, that the autointoxication trick is used almost exclusively by the wrong uns. And the crookeder and ehad ler they are the more alarming and unpleasant the picture or suggestion of autointoxication they offer the prospect they hope to sell the treat ment. It was a physician, Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, who ssld It would be better for the human race and worse for the fishes If all physic were consigned to the bottom ot the sea. "Physic" ss the poet used the term, means all medicines. Phys ics, as I use the term, means laxa tives. I believe It would be a great boon for the health of the race If all physics, not only medical but these glorified enemas and colon filling stations, and Imported bird sued five gun men on the West Side, then the five returned to the Roxey .hotel with a machine gun, and "sprayed lead" over the police car and the restaurant where the detect ives were eating. The policemen dropped to the floor, aaved their lives.' No one would speak lightly of pro hlbltlon, based on a sincere desire to help the human race and "put an end to crime," but It certainly has made lite more exciting than It used to be, thanks to the bootleg Industry. While Chicago's 'machine gunners were busy, another machine gunner was similarly busy In far away Oar field, New Jersey, hidden In a build ing. The New Jersey gunner was Interested In Joseph Bonfontl and Harold Schlesslnger. He shot them both. Mr. Schlesslnger'a family Is untor- tunte. HI brother 'Wild Bill" Schlesslnger, and another gangster were tortured and killed by bootleg rivals three yeara ago. Riviera RIVERIA. May 10.
