Wholesale Burglaries
PORTLAND. May 18. (Detec
tive Lieutenant T. T. Schulplus laid
yesterday that William A. Goldsmith,
44, had been charged with burglary
In connection with 66 house-break-lnga
confessed orally.

SINGULARLY unneighborly
is the disposition of the
Motilones Indians who dwell
dourly in the far jungles of
Venezuela and that fart has
just now set time back by cen
turies. it it
When oil drillers braved the
tropic tangle of the Rio de Oro
region to seek rich oil reserves,
the Motilones welcomed them
with fiercely resentful arrows.
You may smile to think of
these as bow-and-arrow days.
But the oil men found an arrow
was just as unpleasant a way to
die as any. By radio they sent an
SOS call for something just as
obsolete as arrow or battle-ax.
They wanted shirts of mail.
Now they work safely in
"iron kimonos" such as Richard
the Lionhearted wore. In tropic
heat they sizzle like a skillet.
But the men have nothing to
worry about except mosquitoes
and snakes and fever.
Pioneers of oil go into both
the back-country of the world
and the hinterland of time to
the end that the public's sup
ply of petroleum shall not fail.
In 1595, mail-clad Sir Walter
Raleigh received similar hos
pitality from the ancestors of
these Indians, or their close
cousins, along the River Ori
noco. He sought Manoa, a
South American 1 Dorado.The
modern mail-clad explorers
seek a liquid treasure Sir Walter
never heard of.

REPUBLIC
ON
AHS:
Don't Take the Democratic Bait!
The Democratic organization, driven to desperation, ia requesting Republi
cans by letter addressed to them and by editorials in the local paper to write
in the name of Governor Martin, the Democratic candidate for Governor,
as the Republican voters' choice. .
This is to advise all Republican voters that the election laws are such
that a Republican vote cast for Martin for Governor will be a total loss
of that voter's vote, for such vote cast in the primaries cannot be counted
for Martin as the Democratic candidate for Governor. The law prohibits it.
The purpose of this Democratic plan is to take as many votes away from
a strong Republican candidate as possible and in this manner accomplish
the nomination of a weak Republican candidate and play into the hands of
the Democratic party.
Any Republican voter who casts his vote for Martin in the election this
coming Friday will be wasting his vote. It will not be counted for Martin
as the Democratic candidate. Don't be deluded into pulling chestnuts out of
the fire for the Democratic party.
Republicans don't need the advice of the Democratic party as to bow to
vote. We have strong able men seeking the Republican nomination for
Governor. Go to the polls Friday and vote your choice of Republicans for
the Republican nomination for Governor.
