ADVICE TO VOTERS
The foregoing advice to voters, la
written for the sole purpoae ot filling
pace with type, and, without the
lightest Idea any portion or part of
It will be heeded. If, by any ohance.
ny person should decide to follow
It. In whole ot In part, he or she,
doee bo at file own risk and peril.
.
(a) All candldatea are human:
Votera ahould try and be the same.
(b) It Is two weeks until election
day. It will not be the laat two weeks,
you will survive. Leading optimists
hold that after November S, whoever
wins, the world will roll along as
heretofore. The world waa created,
before either of the major parties,
or their standard-bearers.
...
(S) There Is no use getting mad
about the campaign, or anything
that la said, or hBppen, on or be
fore, the "Great Showdown." rMw
remember what they were mad about
In 1033, and none can recollect what
peeved them In 1038, 1M4, or 1030.
) It la a waste of time to fret
iibout what the Lit. Dig. atraw vote
poll ahows, and, be disgusted with
their mathematics. No matter how
you feel about It, the Lit. Dig. will
keep on publishing them, until the
finish. If the atraw vote rounta are
unsatisfactory, remember the final
returns will not pleane everybody.
Man has found no way to conduct
n election, with no losers.

your favorite candidate, without be

The Sporting Angle Only

German had a chance. And he

out. Some of them even put their bye-lines on stories maintain

give the gamblers some easy
dope bucket was completely
won in a walk.
AST Saturday another sporting Goliath met a poor Lil'
"J David, and not a football expert in the country gave little
Duqucsne a look-in over the mighty Pittsburg juggernaut. The
only question was the score the Panthers would run up. The
touted, champions were shut out,
The odds were two-to-one on Princeton, unbeaten in 12
starts, when it tangled with second-rate Pennsylvania, but over
went the bucket again, and the eastern intorcolleinte cham
pions were tumbled in defeat.
Only slightly less sensational was the shut-out given South
ern California by the underdog Washington State at Los An
geles. U. S. C. was generally doped as another galloping herd,
destined to return Hose Bowl honors to Howard Jones on a
silver platter, but the fickle fates that appear to be in control
this year decreed otherwise. Southern Cal. staved off defeat,
but that tie game, promises to ruin its Rose Bowl chances.
So much for sports.
KJ0W, how about political
' For those sportive citizens who don't care about issues, but
are only concerned with how the battle of ballots is coming
out, the eleotion will be the outstanding sporting event for the
next two weeks. As we see it, the one ray of hope for the
G. 0. P. adherents, rests upon the belief, that what has been
true of 1936 sports will also be true of 1936 politics.
. For as things are now going, the somewhat weather-beaten
elephant promises to get on his mnrk Novoniber 3d, as a hopeless
underdog with something less than a good fighting chance.
THHERE is the Literary Digest poll, of course, but impartial
experts an practically a unit in discrediting it. All the
other national polls, don't give Jumbo a Chinaman's chance.
The Gallup poll for example, recognized as the most scientific,
now estimates President Roosevelt's electoral total at 390 to 141
for Landon, with 35 doubtful.
Its political graph shows Roosevelt's voting strength reached its
low, just after Landon 's nomination, at 51.8; but has since
steadily increased, until today it is 54. The Fortune poll
gives tho president even greater popular strength. These straws
in the wind added to the fact that Wall Street, which can't be
accused of pro-Roosevelt sentiment, has raised the odds in
favor of the Democrats, from 8-5,
booking booths look a trifle sick.
The Gallup statisticians admit, the popular voto promises to
bo close, only two or three million votes separating the candi
dates, but in the last prediction they don't deny, a Roosevelt
landslide, clectorially is nowentirely possible.
OUT wait a minute I
There ij Schmeling, and little Duqucsne, nnd Washington
State and poor old Penn they didn't have a Chinaman's chance
cither. Who can tell, perhaps the elephant, will join the
exultant procession of Lil' Davids and underdogs, after the
third of November.
At any rate our advice to those who are sportivoly inclined,
and fanoy tho long shots, in matters of this Bort, is to hmig
tight to that jinx which has appeared to pursue the favorites
since June the first. As we see it, it's about all they have,
at this stage of the gnme to cheer about.
The Independant Vote
ri those who don't take much stock in straw ballots, of any
lr i 11 rl Villf op, intArnot e1 in Icanee nnil 1ia (tcao t AMi.
can publio is reacting to them, we would present what we regard
as threo highly significant developments, the past few weeks.
First: the reasoned choice of
the largest and probably the most influential morning paper in
the Unitod States, which after withholding its decision three
months, finally came out for President Roosevelt.
Second : the announcement
known New Vork financier and economist, that unless there is
a radical change in the situation between now and November
Third, he too will vote for Roosevelt. This is a most startling
example of the present reversnl in publio sentiment I For Mr.
Warburg, not only disagreed with many of the New Deal poli
cies, but. wrote that best seller
bitterly criticised those policies, and has been extensively used
by the Republican national committee, ever since in its cam
paign propaganda service.
Third : the action of the Coos Bay Times, a Republican news
paper in this state, which withheld its decision, until the funda
mental issues in the campaign became clear and distinct, and
yesterday also, came out against
of the present administration.
II ERE is the leading paper of the conservative cast; an out-
standing representative of the more liberal and enlight
ened section of the New York financial district; and a small
city daily, on the remote Oregon coast, all in the space of s few
weeks, coming to the same conclusion, and for varying reasons.
But all three .decisions had one element in common. They
were all free from political bias, from any personal or partisan
prejudice; they were all the result of REASONING the thing
out, thinking it through, placing the claims of one side against
the other, striking a balance, and then calmly and impartially
deciding, the victory of which party, is best for the welfare of
this country and the people in it, under the circumstances which
today exist.
That tiler all decided for Roosevelt we regard as of TRE
MKNDOUS siguifi cancel Not only as to the essential "Tight
ness" of the Roosevelt cause, but as to the probable outcome, so
much more important than any straw ballots, in authenticity
and dependability that there is no comparison.
For as before stated this election will be decided, aa most
in New Tork last June. Just
the country, maintained the
wasn't very sure of it. Most
city, were only worried about
a real match, but a play-up to
money. As everyone knows the
upset, and the German has-been
and Duquesne won 7-0.
(An election majority is 266.)
to 3 to one, makes the Q. 0. P.
the New York Times, certainly
by James P. Warburg, well
"Hell Bent for Kleetion", which
Landon and Knox and in favor
close elections are, by the non-partisan independent vote, those
who have no axe to grind one way or the other, but have been
and are today reasoning the thing out.
When, three parties so dissimilar in character, so widely
separated as the three mentioned, come to the same conclusion,
then it is fair to assume a vast majority of the independent
voters in the country will do likewise.
And that as before stated will settle it.

Mining vs. Profit Tax
To the Editor:
Of all the fool measures that have
been Jammed through congress by
the present administration, probably
the most damaging to the mining
Industry, and especially to the min
ing prospector, Is the law taxing un
distributed profit of corporations.
Mining Is a wasting Industry and
very few Individual mines have lives
of more than twenty years. This was
early recognized in England and for
more than & hundred years English
mining companies have regularly set
aside a part of their earnings for the
acquisition and development of new
mines. The result Is that, aside from
Russia, British capital now controls
75 percent of the gold output of
the world, Including much In the
United State.
Within the last thirty or forty
years, conservatively managed min
ing companies in the United States
have gradually adopted the same
policy, building up several reser
voirs of capital that could be drawn
upon for mining expansion.
Now all is changed. A few days ago,
I offered an option on what I con
sider a meritorious prospect, to a
comparatively small, but prosperous
mining company. Today, I have &
reply from their president, who ha
been my personal friend for many
years. He says that, because of the
new law they cannot afford to use
current earnings for the acquisition
of new mines, and that they must
preserve their previously acquired
surplus to provide for unforseen set
backs to their present operations.
Just what does this mean to the
mining prospector? It means that
in the future new capital for the
development of really good prospects
must be raised In a haphazard man
ner, adding greatly to the promo
tion cost, and therefore, lowering the

IN Oregon, at least, choosing a preai-
dent is not the only task to be
faced by the voters on election day.
On the ballot there will be eight
measures laws to be enacted or re
jected by the sovereign people whose
fate must be paaaed upon.
"pHESl! measures all of them aub-
mltted by initiative petition
range all the way from, simple
amendment of the old age pension
act of 1033 to far-flung schemes to
put the state of Oregon into the
power business on a grand scale and
also Into the banking business.
They Include an amendment for
bidding the regulation or prevention
of truthful advertising, and an
amendment enabling the Portland
school district to levy more taxes
than the six per cent ft ml tat ion
amendment to the constitution per
mits. Among ?em Is a bill to forbid
compulsory military training at any
of the state school of higher learn
ing. "pHESE measure are complicated
not simple. Their purpose and
effect can not be determined at a
single casual glance.
For example: There la among them,
a stated, an amendment to the con
stitution of Oregon forbidding the
prevention or regulation of TRUTH
FUL advertising. Tht writer, whose
business 1 publishing newspapers,
believes about as strongly as be can
believe anything that ALL truthful
advertising should be not only per
mitted but encouraged.
All honest newspaper men resent
and abhor censorship In all It forms.
Yet, holding these convictions, this
writer will be compelled to vote
against this amendment which for
bids the censorship of truthful ad
vertising. WHY?
" Because It t an amendment to
the constitution, which 1 the funda
mental taw of the state, and a such
would wipe away all the wise regula
tion surrounding advertising which
have been built up in past years by
better business bureaus, publishers'
Associations and all others Interested
In the welfare of honest advertising.
That wouldn't be wise at all.
The presence of this amendment
on the ballot Is due to the desire of
somebody to get even with wnebody
else. Measure SHOULDNT get on
the ballot for any luch reason.
But the fact remains that they DO.

The Other Side of Taft
To the Editor;
If you are to quote Charlie Taft
for the New Deal, as tn your editorial
Sunday, fairness demands Inclusion
of the following quotation from Time,
Aug. 3, containing the gist oi why
Taft is AGAINST the president:
"Strong for social security, he (Taft
considers the New Deal' system un
just and Impractical, dislikes its
'spendthrift generosity, Its currency
policies. But the only thing which
really msde him boil are: 1) 'Must,'
bills Jammed through without ade
quate debate by congress on the na
tion. (3) Waste and politics in re
lief. (3) The Spoils system as prac
ticed by James A. Farley."
These issues "only" should be
enough to boll the democrats off tha
top of the political soup pot, even a
briefly considered as follows:
(1) The "must" bills at best are
an unwarranted presumption on the
part of the chief executive and Imply
a failure of his faith In elected rep
resentatives and at worst they serve
as precedent for less high-minded
wire-cutting of boundary fence pro
tecting representative government
through separation of executive, leg
islative and Judicial powers
(3) "Waste and politic In relief.'
Democratic vulnurablllty on this score
is substantiated by Innumerably
minor messes throughout the country,
the major one in California two
years ago the present stench In
the votes of other people, for this
particular writer never has been In
terested in telling other people how
they ought to vote. His business Is
merely to express opinion of his own.
V 70TERS of Oregon should study
these measure with care, weigh
ing the considerations both for and
against them.- But, If you are not
willing to give the time necessary to
a careful study of them, tt Is this
writer's careful Judgment that you
won't go far wrong If you vote NO
all down the line.
There isn't a measure In the lot
that we couldn't get along without

Js for Charlie Taft "ell of him." How
many members of the republican

for hi holding company 'and yard
