All Martin Voters Up!
WE came to the office this morning to meet a vociferous de
mand to take the hide off President Roosevelt, for inter
fcring in the Democratic primary in this state.
"Why don't you pick on the man responsible," cried the
spokesman, "instead of panning such stooges as Elton Wat-
kins, Steve Early, and the like.

a swift kick in the seat of the

of Oregon, who they can have

sian serfs. If we ever get a
etc., etc., far beyond the allotted
IF we believed President Roosevelt WERE responsible for the
"New Deal" effort to defeat Governor Martin, we would
gladly follow our apoplectic friend's suggestion. But we hap
pen to KNOW he isn't. And every newspaperman in the state
who has kept in close touch at all with Washington and the
Walter Pierce faction of the Democratic party, knows he isn't.
It's another case of the President, yielding to his desire to
please, and the persuasion of those who happened to have his
ear, at the psychological time. He hag again been the victim of
poor advice; but he did not initiate the action.
a .
THE effort to get the President to aid in the defeat of Gover-
nor Martin has been going on aggressively for at least two
months, and Congressman Pierce, has from the first, been active
in it. He has been vigorously aided by Elton Wntkins, disgrunt
led office seeker, and of course by Henry Hess, Governor Mar
tin's opponent, and the Hess brain trust.
The pressure brought upon the President has been tremen
dous, it even being reported, and never denied that John L.
fiewis, put in a strong word, against the man who dared tell
lawless labor leaders in Oregon where they got off.
. . . '
HPIIEN something happened, we don't know what, but
something terribly vital, as far as the primary fortunes of
General Martin and the Democratic party in this state are con
cerned. President Roosevelt still refused to do what he did in
Florida, directly enter the primary through his son James
but he did agree to give Governor Martin a slap on the wrist,
denying a certain statement linking the Governor familiarly
and approvingly with the President j and ho also agreed to keep
his hands off tho rest of the program, which was to draw in
certain influential members of the cabinet and senate, to op
pose the nomination of Martin, and come out approvingly for
Henry Hess.
"I IE might as well have originated the idea?"
Well, we hardly think that. In fact it is the conviction
of this column that had the President a TRUE idea of the sit
uation in Oregon, he would never have entered the primary
against Governor Martin directly or indirectly, and he would
never have sanctioned any other member of his administration
doing so.
Cj'OR it is the considered judgment of this column that this
action bv President Roosevelt, will lose him more friends
in this state, and do moro harm to his party and his adminis
tration, than anything that has been done since he was first
inaugurated.
Such action in fact we regard as close to a fatal blunder.
There may be some justification
istration entering a party primary where the nomination to an
office of tho federal government is at stake, the congressional
support of a national administration, is of vital national impor
tance. But tliero is no justification, no excuse whatever for
this administration or any administration, interfering in the
matter of STATE government telling the people of this state
or anv other whom thev should choose to administer their OWN
AKFAIRS, and whom they should defeat.
We agree with our.table-thuniping visitor, it is none of the
government's business, and he can put in all the "blanhety
blanks," he wishes as far as wo are concerned.
fJOWKVER, we can see no particular good that can bo done
' by cursing, or squawking, what's been done has been
DONE, and no power in creation, chu NOW undo it.
SO what!
Well, merely this:
LET EVERY FRIEND OF GOVERNOR MARTIN in South
ern Oregon, go to the polls this Friday, and mark a cross be
fore his name if he is a Democrat; and write his name in, and
mark a ero;.s before that, if he is a Republican.
That is the only hope as we see it, a last minute uprising
throughout the .state, an uprising to uphold good government
on one hand, to rebuke federal intereferenee in our own af
fairs, on the other.
....
IT can he done, if tho peoplo will only wake up and do it.
There is no doubt whatever, that a majority of the people
of Oregon an overwhelming majority want Governor Mar
tin to remain as thief executive of this state. If they will go to
the polls and vote accordingly, three days hence, they will get
what they want.
It's a genuine crisis, as we view it. If there are not enough
Democrats to nominate him, then there may be enough Repub
licans. It's no time to quibble over parties, or to leave any
Klone unturned. f,et all Martin people, men and women, go to
the polls on Friday, and vote. Let that be done and there need
be no worry about the final result.

It is not quite correct to say that I

such a case. I suggest the exercises

In old hernias where the protrusion

leaving off the truss at any time.

Comment
on the
Days News
By IBANK JENKINS
IH. VAN WINKLE, attorney-gen-e
eral of Oregon, is a candidate
at Friday's primary for a position on
the Oregon supreme court.
This writer thinks he should be
DEFEATED.
IN March of 1036, there was a battle
between rival unions In Clatsop
county. Several men were killed and
many others wounded. Thirty mem
bers of the attacking faction were
arrested and held for trial. What
followed Is described by the Asto
ria n -Bud get, which Is published In
Clatsop county, where the bloody
battle occurred. It says:
"The then district attorney
(of Clatsop county), Willis West,
requested aid in the prosecution
from Attorney -General Van Win
kle, who demurred and objected
until he was ordered to take
charge by Governor Martin. He
then agreed to appoint as special
prosecutor Bert Tongue, of Hills
boro, who spent three weeks with
West In preparing the prosecu-
tlon, only to have his commls-"
slon WITHHELD on the day of
the trial.
"Without commission, he was
forced to sit silently by while a
deputy out of Mr. Van Winkle's
office took over for the state,
ruled the district attorney out of
the case, despite the latter's vig
orous objections to the procedure
and effected the notorious "com
promise with crime' which re
sulted In the PAROLE OF ALL
DEFENDANTS."
IT developed that this procedure
I had been COMPLETELY PREAR
RANGED In conferences between the
attorney-general's offlce'and tho AT-
TORNEY FOR THE ACCUSED RIOT
ERS.
The conclusion la Inevitable that
Van Winkle deliberately sanctioned
this action.
a
O such man. in this writer's
opinion, should be permitted to
become a member of the Oregon
supreme court.
VAN WINKLE Is opposed (for po
sition No. S) by Hall LusK, who
la now a member of the oourt, hav
ing been appointed by Governor
Martinr and by James T. Chin nock,
of Grants Pass.
This writer, without malice toward
Mr. Chlnnock. will vote for Judge
Lusk. Obviously, if the purpose la
to DEFEAT VAN1 WINKLE, It will
be necessary to center upon ONE of
his opponents.
Communications
The Burden of Proof
To the editor:
In the Pathfinder for May 14th.
there Is a condensed statement of
legislation now requested by the
president, touching monopolies.
One point especially should be
carefully noted and weighed by every
American citizen. He urges, "im
provement of anti-trust procedure
by making companies charged with
violation, prove that they are not
trusts, rather than force the govern
ment to prove they are."
Just place that In your mental
scales and weigh It.
One priceless heritage passed down
to us by our fathers Is the legal prin
ciple that every person is presumed
to be Innocent until he is proven
guilty! And it applies the same to
corporations as to Individuals. It is
a corner-stone of American penal
law, and of American liberty.
But It would seem that such a
"procedure" is too slow and bother
some to suit our president, when
convictions are wanted right now.
So he asks for a new procedure (a
Hew Deal) In criminal law. Nothing
un-American, of course. Oh . no I
Just something more In harmony
with wiiat Americanism will mean
after he geta it remodeled. Just some
little thing that will make a federal
indictment, based on suspicions and
rumor, tantamount to a conviction
unless the accused party takes the
necessary time and trouble to collect
evidence to disprove all suspicions
and rumors. The burden of prool
has always rested on the accuaoi :
All he asks Is that It now be trans
ferred to the accused.
Federal departments could then
prepare skillfully worded indictment !
which they wouldn't have to prove
They could go fishing or watch their
innocent victims perspire aa they
searched for that disproof. If thai ;
perversion of Justice Is established
aa to corporations, it would soon
become the law as to Individuals. It
would then be up to you to prove
that you were not exceeding the
speed limit, that you did not stea
the chickens, that you did not start
the scandal, etc. You would be pre
sumed guilty until you could prove
your Innocence.
As a legal principle it Is unfair
undemocratic un-American. It would
be a kind of "black-Jack" in the
federal band with which to intimi
date big business, or to "crack
down" on them.
And It is our president that Is
asking congress for such a change
In the law.

JINGLES
A "jingle" is a "tinkling
sound or meaningless
rhyme'
Webster. Ah! That's
the way I've been wastine
my time!
I'll certainly fess up to the
meaningless part,
For I've never thought them
akin to poetic art.
Have to plead guilty doing
a thing I shouldn't do
But if YOU'RE reading em
guess YOU'RE guilty too.
Anyhow it's lots of fun to
write 'em every day.
And if you DO read 'era you
know about Chevrolet!
