THE HOUND-UP
It'i All over but the ahoutlng. and
the counting ot the primary votes.
There will be 11th hour appeal! and
canards, to olose the sound and lury
Oltlrena will be urged to vote at
least onoe. Many will heed, but the
majority made up their minds to
to fishing on election day. last
January. It was about this time an-
other majority decided who they
were going' to vote for tomorrow.
There is only one Issue that mat
ters: Is Oregon to be run by the
Governor, or the Goons. It's the
question to be decided. The elector
either wants more sawmills burned
down, or law and order.
...
The. primary campaign had Its
silly momenta. There was the bump.
tlous Portland politician, with the
elephantine conceit who, peeved
when his plea to be named to a sen.
atorlal seat was denied, rushed In
high dudgeon to Washington, D. 0.,
and, believe It or not, engineered
high cabinet officers and atateamen
Into Issuing slightly dictatorial In
structions that furthered his per
sonal ' vendetta, and gladdened his
hater. This bit of horse-play. If a
horse would act that way, is some
thing for the history books.
...
Then, there was the alien and con
victed troublemaker, who had roamed
the Interior of two etate prisons,
and while under doportatlon ordera
to Germany, turned .amateur actor,
and at public gatherings, mlmlced
the Governor, and was cast In that
role. What a travesty on the oft
boasted freedom of America. There
should be an Iron-clad rule, requir
ing Impudent foreign-born to either
behave or go home,
Locally, the hullabaloo was gayer
Candidates did nothing much out
shake hands, and gnaw the meat off
chicken legs at country dinners.
Nona got a wishbone caught in his
throat, and best of all and praise
bel this city escaped with the in
fliction of only throe (count 'em)
campaign speeches.

A S previously stated the Mail Tribune has followed its estab-

primary scramble, except where some important issue was in
volved. However there have been so many requests the past 48 hours
for "SUGGESTIONS", as to whom to vote for, and whom to
vote against, that we have decided the readers of the paper
are entitled to our advice along this line. (If it does nothing

Regarding the gubernatorial race, our advice hag been for
all voters who PREFER Governor Martin to SO EXPRESS
THEMSELVES at the polls, Democrats mark his name, Re
publicans write it in and place a cross before it. We would
like to see the Governor receive the greatest bi-party vote of
confidence any public officer in this state has ever received
Certainly on his record he deserves it.
But the voter in the Republican primary who doesn't prefer
Martin, and is at a loss as to which Republican candidate to
select we would unhesitatingly recommend Charley Sprague.
well known newspaper man of Salem
Sprague is earnest, high minded, conscientious, and while an
unknown quantity politically speaking if nominated would be
a credit to his party, and his state".
In the senatorial race on the Democratic ticket this paper
preference is strongly for Carl Donaugh, Federal District
Attorney. Mr. Donaugb is not as politically adroit, demagogic
or slick as his opponent, hut he is far more able, reliable, and
dependable, has a clear view of the needs of the state, and if
sent to Washington would give a most excellent account of
himself.
who in the line of his duty as Circuit Judge banded down an
opinion the radical labor leaders didn't like and they are out
to "get" him.
11TE can imagine nothing WORSE for the cause of a non
" political, independent judiciary, in this state, than that
this effort should be successful. .
For if a labor minority can "GET" a Supreme Court judge,
because he refuses to yield to its political dictation, any .ilis
gnintled minority can do the same thing, and then where is
your independent, non-political judiciary t -
It has gone where the woodbine twineth,
For nothing in creation could then prevent our Supreme
Court from eventually becoming an out-and-out partisan politi
cal organization, for any independent, courageous, conscien
tious judge like Judge Lusk would only last until the next
election!
Certainly no right thinking citizen in the state wants that,
or anything approaching it. ,
The way to prevent it is to vote for:
Hall S." Lusk,
J.0. Bailey, and
Henry J. Bean,
the present incumbents.

For Democrats Only
TpiIIS is the final gun, as far as the 1938 primary is concerned
The supreme issue is the Martin-Hess race in the Demo.
cratic primary.
Governor Martin isn't on trial. The Democratic party IS.
No fair minded citizen in the state denies Governor Martin
has given Oregon one of the best, administrations in iU entire
history. It is highly important to the state, present and future
that it be continued.
But if the Democratic party in Oregon, doeBn't know good
government when it sees it and has it.
If it is so susceptible to the ballyhoo of radicalism on one
hand, and the tom-tom thumping of Washington witch-doctors
on the other, that it can't see,-not only where the interest of
the state, but its own SELF-INTEREST lies, well,
That's just too .bad, for the Democratic party!
T will proceed to turn down, one of the best Governors Oregon
has ever had, for an unknown, second-rate attorney in La
Grande, and get exactly what it deserves,
THE BEATING OF ITS LIFE IN NOVEMBER !
l tools tile Democratic party ot Urogon, Jo years to gain
control of this state, and place a member of the party in
the state-house at Salem.
The result tomorrow will show whether that party will retain
that control for another four years, make a record for which
the party may always be proud, or true to the symbol of the
jackass, kick over the apple cart, throw away its golden oppor
(unity, and, -
WAIT ANOTHER QUARTER OF A CENTURY, BEFORE
THE PEOPLE OF THIS STATE, WILL AGAIN HAVE ANY
CONFIDENCE IN IT.
It certainly is up to the members of the Democratic party,
tomorrow. If the Governor is beaten, it won't be the goons
and the gillies, the racketeering politicos, or the wirepullers
and self-starters ALONE who will celebrate the biggest cele.
bration of all and WITH REASON, will be put on by the
Republican party, at least the anti-Martin section of it.
So if the Democrats of Oregon wish to commit political
suioiilo tomorrow, tho puth of destruction lies clearly before
them.
All they have to do is turn down Governor Martin and choose
Attorney .Hess for their new standard bearer.
Kill "Political Judges "
KJEXT to the gubernatorial race the most important contest
in tomorrow's primary involves the State Supreme Court.
For here too an important issue is involved, that of keeping
partisan politics out of the judiciary, and it too will be decided
not in the fall but tomorrow.
Theoretically we have a non-politionl judieiitry; practically
we have nothing of the sort, and won't have until Supreme
Court judges are appointed instead of elected.
But the people can reduce political influence to the minimum
by adopting the following common sense procedure:
If a member of the Supreme Court is honest, has Riven good
service, and is up for' re-election. SEE THAT HE IS RE
ELECTED! ....
IF this procedure is followed through the years, those who
would make a political football out of the Supreme Court,
or through political manipulation secure a soft berth on the
bench at the expense of the taxpayers will soon become lis-
couraged, and the practice will be aliamlnned.
This year there are three members of the court up for re
election, Bean, Bailey and Lusk. They are all good men They
all have good records. But there is a strong effort being
made to defea't them, particularly. Judge Lusk of Multuoniah,
You Can't Quote the President
Editorial Reprinted From the
Eugene Register Guard
(AN EDITORIAL)
As our good friend Ajax McGurk says:
"You .can't quote the president, but 'there ain't no law'
agin' chuckling."
Thus it is improper for the venerable Governor Martin to
quote his old friend Franklin as saying: "You and I make a
good pair.'
But Elton Watkins, a Portland politico, renounced repeated
ly by Oregon voters can slip into the White House with Secre
tary Ick'es and give out this wire to Candidate Hess:
"What. I heard from the lips of that great democrat and
what I saw in his beaming countenance WHEN 1 LULU xiliu
YOU WERE GOING TO WIN, I then knew and now say von
are the man the Roosevelt democrats of Oregon should nomi
nate."
Yon can't "auote the president," but with a little help from
Rneh nroeressive statesmen as Dick rveuberger, isneiaon oacneti.
and J. D. Ross, you can induce Nebraska's Norris and the
effulgent Ickes to tell Oregon people what to tninu.

This was just after President Roosevelt had delivered his
message on the spendine-lendinir program. Mr. Bertpr had
called on April 1-1 to nsk Governor Martin if he would be one
f 22 governors to "back the president up ttie only one
selected on tie Facino coast.
fiovernor Martin, reluctant to be drawn into this contro-
ersial matter had craved 24 hours to think it over, had decided
that after all "the president s wish is a command and was
rfl-eheckinir with Berter on the arrangements. We call your
nttention to the fact that Mr. Berter affirmed positively that
the president was asking Governor Martin's help.
Now the radio talk delivered over K01N on Saturday night.
April 16 at President Roosevelt s request is the talk which
has led to all the gabble about "who's clinging to whose coat-
ails."
There is in the fierce old warrior at Salem a peculiar strain
f loyalty. Sure, he has criticized Madame Perkins and Bro.
Ickes and that Great Democrat himself, when he has seen fit,
but his devotion to his old friend and "commanding officer"
(as he likes to put it) has been unshaken.
There is a report from Washington today that the smoothies
the New Deal are beginning to regret their rashness, that
Mr. Ickes thinks he was taken in, by atkins. would like to
call his letter back. It is too late. The man "with the beaming
countenance" has laid his bet.
There is real drama in politix. Hut there is much more of
omedy than of tragedy. Slickers have a way of slickering
themselves. You "can t quote the president, but neither is
it safe to draw inferences from a beaming countenance, tor
fter all it is people of Oregon who will do the voting Friday

Beck.
Now that the distinction ot hav

vanished, says
Oren O. Durham.
botanist, in his
book "Your Hay
Fever" f Bobbs
Merrlll), It Is
becoming fash
ionable to boast
of having had
"one hundred
and .fifty skin
tests right here
on my arm and
they found I waa
sensitive to for
ty-seven different things."
That is not so hyperbolic as it
may sound. When a doctor sets out
to trace the specific cause of allergy
or hypersensitivity to "some foreign
protein," by the skin scratch test,
method, the Investigation Is only
well under way when a hundred dlf
ferent protein extracts or aUergins :
h&ve been applied to a hundred wee j
scratches on the skin, and it would
be remarkable if the patient did not
react, that is, develop a little wheal
or area of redness around the spot
where three or four of the protein
extracts have been applied. Even In
clear-cut cases of hay fever, whsro
of course the "foreign protein" is
pollen, the patients generally react
to several different pollen extracts or
allergins. Some specialists, have car
ried this allergy idea on still further
and they would designate certain
subjects as being hypersensitive to
certain allergins or foreign protein
in the nasal mucous membrane
though not sensitive in the skin, or
vice versa.
Assume you have had the 150 skin
tests and found you are hypersensi
tive or allergic to 47 thlngfs, what
then? Should you receive a series of
hypodermic Injections or homeo
pathic extracts or dilutions of the
47 things with gradually increasing
doses to render you Immune to
them?
That Is for you to decide for your
self. It depends on how anxious you
may be to get rid of the trouble.
In any case, the individual who
is allergic or hypersensitive to any- i
thing probably has some constitu
tional deficiency in calcium metab
olism. In a good many cases such
Individuals have obtained marked re

Please give your honest opinion of

specialist who administers the treat
ments says they break down the fat
cells so that . . .' (Mrs. F. D. 8.).
Answer The main drawback about
that is there are no fat cells. Fat,
whether the normal fat of the body
or surplus fat, is always either in
or between the cells of the ' tissue or
organ involved. Any "reduction"
treatment which purports to work
while the sue the customer sits or
lies at ease Is likely to reduce, only
the customer's surplus of cash.
Chart
Apropos of cure for cataract. In
the vitamin chart distributed by (a
lag pharmaceutical firm) my doc
tor gave it to me It says vitamin
B and vitamin G essential in pre
vention of cataract? (Mrs. E. M.)
Answer Illustrating the m Isle Mi
ing effects of quaint attempts to

min G or B has anything to do with
cataract in man.
Peanut Butter
Kindly let us know the food value
of peanut butter. Is It inferior or
superior to ordinary butter In any
way? (G. 8.)
Answer Peanut butter contains 2
percent water, 29 percent - protein.
46 percent fat, 17 percent carbohy
drate, large amount of vitamin B
and vitamin G, yields 3.825 calories
to the pound. Ordinary butter con
tains 11 percent water, 1 percent
protein, 85 percent fat, no carbohy
drate, about 22 units of vitamin O
in each ounce, and considerable vita

spring, the Republicans of Oregon

The Republican party of Oregon,
purged of job-hunters, relief-seeker
and bandwagon riders, ts a compact
body of conservative thinkers who
will NOT vote for the radical-backed
Hess. With all this purging; the Re
publicans are still In the'majority in
Oregon registrations.
If Martin ts defeated on Friday, his
followers will not support the go in
applauding Hess, but will come oi-er
into the camp of the clear-thinking
fair-minded but basically conservative

The combination of the two will
be ample to elect Sprague in No
