General Martin as Governor
SO Geucral Martin prefers Salem, Oregonio Washington. D.C.I
SURPRISING particularly at such an interesting time as
this, with President Roosetelt over three years to go and very
likely seven.
There must be something more in the announcement than
meets the eye Probably some deserving Democrat wants the
post in congress more than General Martin does; and the Demo
cratic party, including the Roosevelt administration is particu
larly anxious to have a Democratic governor in Oregon.
WELL, we can say this for General Martin. He ig f
fine man, thoroughly familiar with the needs of this
a man of character and determination, who if elected would
give the state an efficient, business-like and non-partisan ad
ministration.
And with no radical change in the political picture his
chances of being elected, would be good. With the popularity
of Roosevelt WHAT it is, any candidate having his endorsement
and support, would have a tremendous advantage over all com
petitors, in both the primaries
In fact at this writing we
Goneral Martin's election, than his success afterward; for as a
rule military men are not very successful either in politics, or
in civil administration,
TNLESS there should be a marked change in Oregon's politi
cal atmosphere, the difficulties before General Martin as
governor would be particularly irksome in this state, at this
time.
For there are so many adjustments and compromises to
make. For some reason Oregonians take politics INTENSELY.
They adore fights and factions. The sales tax, for example, has
divided the state; and each community into hostile warring
camps. We have it on excellent authority that right here in
Jackson county families have been divided on this issue. Old
timo neighbors have become estranged. j
It seems foolish, and yet there it is an undeniable fact. The
Power Trust issue is another bone of contention in this state,
and there appears to be no sane or satisfactory adjudication of
that controversy, at least in the near future. We Oregonians
just like to fight.
Once in office and with no marked diminution of the prevail
ing discontent, factionalism and unrest, General Martin would,
we fear, find the going both distasteful and rough.
f N the matter of courage, force, and uncompromising devotiou
to duty the general would be admirably fitted to face such a
situation. But whether we like it or not, the fact remains, it
takes MORE'than that. '
In other words wo fear no man can be an outstanding success
in this stnte, as governor, under present circumstances, UNLESS
hp is not only a competent executive and administrator, but a
resourceful and adroit politician.
The combination is rare, but President Roosevelt is a living
example of the fact that it exists.
Is General Martin, or oould he develop into such a type.
KPOm wnBj we know of him which we admit isn't very much,'
j
We 8hOUId doubt it. ,
LJOWEVKR, all this is more or less, beside the point. General
Martin hasn't won the nomination yet, much less the office.
To doubt any man'a success before he has been given a chance
to demonstrate what he is, or isn't himself, is to say the least,
rather academic. . -
But having gotten off on this tangint, we might as well
finish it. Which is to-wit: '
If anyone asked our opinion which no one has wo ?ould
say that General Martin's unfnmiliarity with the Hrts and wiles
of the practical politician, would endear him to the people as a
candidate,. BEFORE the election; but would prove a serious
obstacle to his popularity and success, as chief executive of the
state, AFTER IT. - - '
The Incident
"1XVIT1I a third grand jury, finding insufficient evidence to
" justify an indictment, in the Dahauk case, ye trust the
incident, may, by unanimous consent be considered closed for
all time. . . '
We aro tired of tho everlasting controversy hihI bcliove the
uoopln of Jnckson county arc also. It has already cost the tax
payers thousands of dollars, in direct expense and oven more in
futile bickering and dissension. .
As a matter of fact no one knows who fired the shot that
killed Dalmck and it is doubtful if auyonc ever will know. A
volley was fired at a group of fleeing men, one shot went wild,
penetrated a thicket of trees and underbrush and hit Dahack,
who was invisiblo to the officers, as well as to the fleeing men.
If one Brand iurv had thorouehlv invviii-nt.l ihio .i
f.,, t 1 . t .
Iol"w no evidence for an indictment, one might assume there
had been a mistake. Hut when THREE grand juries, and one
of them under the direction of a special state prosecutor, came
to the snmo conclusion, we arc quite sure all reasonable peoplo
will agrco that such a finding is the correct one.
So that's that. Lot's forget it at least until new and im
portant evidence, is discovered, which ALONE would justify
reviving it.

particularly like milk cherish a fancy
that an exclusive milk diet Is bene

nothing especially healthful about
milk, and in fact I should say milk
that has been par-boiled (pasteurized)

densed or mixed with one thing and
another has lost whatever claims it

In order to get sufficient energy
from milk alone to maintain the nor

would have to consume more than a
gallon of milk a day. That's a rather
burdensome quantity of liquid to put
In the stomach. Besides such an ex

much exercise as a regular boy or girl
should get.
There are a few fundamentals In
the diet which one who endeavors to
follow a maintenance or a reduction
regimen, or for that matter a regimen
for gaining weight, should scrutinize
carefully. The most practical, health
ful way to control weight, so far as
diet is concerned, Is by familiarizing
oneself with the nutritive value of
these fundamental items, so that one
can count the calories at a glance
and so prevent them from sneaking
up on you, so to speak.
