Prominent Republican De
clares Loyalty to State
Should Be Held Above
Loyalty to Party Machine
PICCARD HURT IN BALLOON LANDING
OBRVAIS. Ore., Nov. (Bpl.)
n place loyalty to the state and to
Its people ahead of loyalty to party,"
aald Senator Sam H. Brown, Repub
lloan. in a recent address here. He
added:
"If by chance, men who are un
fit happen to receive the party's
nomination, remember that your
duty to your atate and lta people
takes precedence over your loyalty
to the party.'
Supplementing his radio talk of
October 11, the Republican senator
from Marlon county again assailed
Joe B. Dunne. Republican candidate
for governor, and some of .his so
called "Four Horsemen."
He continued:
"Party loyalty has taken on a dif
ferent meaning to me after years of
service as a member of the legis
lature. "Ab I sat In the legislative halls
by day and In the committee rooms
tov nlKht and witnessed behind the
scenes the working of the party
bosses who are the leaders of this
invisible government, I was seized
by a revulsion of feeling that de- J
manded that I take no part In the i
betrayal of my etate. I
"Behind locked doors- these bosses
meet and map out ways and means
to exploit the state and Its people.
Despite the protests of loyal and
honest members of the legislature, i
who really have the Interest of the I
people at heart, these bosses pick !
out hirelings who can be relied upon
to do their bidding and can nearly
always muster up enough strength to
parry out their wishes.
"From these meetings spring the
bppresstve laws against he Interest
ttf the people.
"Under no form of government
and under no party will there be
good government unless, and until,
the people select competent officials.
A competent official la one who has
the ability to understand his duttes
land to perform them efficiently. He
must be honest, and he cannot be
honest if his official conduct la
guided by political bosses or politi
cal Interest, either for himself or for
bis party.
"In the selection of our governor
H must be remembered that he Is
practically one-third of the legisla
ture, and on his shoulders rests the
responsibility .of helping to enact
honest laws In the interest of the
ntlre state. It Is also his duty to
veto vicious legislation that is against
those Interests of the people.
"Ha must be courageous, one will
ing to fight, one aggressive In the
work of reform. If by chance men
who are unfit happen to receive
your party's nomination, men who
never led or were a party to any
reform movement, who never de
nounced graft, who always have been
regulars and placed party organiza
tion above the public welfare, who
are supported by a gang of political
buccaneers, who see In the admin
istration of government, not the wel
fare of the people but an oppor
tunity to despoil for private gain
REMEMBER THAT your duty to
your state and its people takes pre
cedence over your loyalty to the
party."

very much like to find some."

Here's a Tip to the
REAL ESTATE DEALERS
Last week a local resident advertised a tract of land
for sale in the classified columns of the Mail Tribune
and reports 20 calls in a couple of days. He is confi
dent that out of the 20 he will close a deal and he says
for cash. -
o
This Would Indicate the Demand for
Real Estate Is Growing
NOW
judging from this, might be the time to begin advertising the
properties you have listed. We can not tell what the man with
money is thinking about these days. He knows that it is the
buyers' market. He also knows that prices are lowest they have been in years, .
and that there is little chance of them going lower. It may be that now is the time
for action. At the small cost of Mail Tribune Classified advertising, it would not
take a large deal to create an advertising fund large enough to "carry on" for a
whole year.
