Time to Wake Up
KJONE so blind as those who can't aee.
The Oregonian takes the Salem Capital-Journal to task
because it deplored the "harmony" back-slapping and partisan
yapping of the recent organization meeting of the Republican
state committee at Salem. ' . . -
, The Salem paper warned that if the Republicans are to win
back the state this fall, they will have to do more than "point
with pride and view with alarm I"
That's old stuff and discredited stuff. The result of th
coming election, as is true of practically all elections, will be
determined, not by the 100 partisans on either Bide but by th
independent voters, who will balance the claims of one party
against the claims of the other, and finally decide the victory
of which will be for the best interests of the state.
Mutual admiration gatherings, harmony banquets, tall talk
about how wise and pure and able one party is, and what
low-browed mess of misfits and nincompoops, is the other, will
so disgust this discriminating and adult vote, that if an
entirely 'different strategy isn't adopted, the Republicans are
beaten before they start.

political psychology of this state, it would second the motion,
and devote its great influence with the powers that be in th
G.O.P. to bring about what the Salem paper (heretofore staunch
ly Democratic) wishes to bring about, some comprehension
of the realities, that will face the voters of this state, in th
coming campaign, and a quietus on the sort of partisan tom-tom
beating, that had some validity in the days of Mark Ilanna,
but at the present time, is as childish and out-of-date as Mr,
Pickwick's stage coach.

much antiquated self satisfied partisanship at the Salem meet
ing as (it says) 0
"Ot course there would be talk of Republicanism at a
Republican organization meeting."
OF COURSE 1
But what KIND of "Republicanism!"
That's the entire point of the Capital-Journal's warning,
and if the Republicans wish to win in November, it's a wnrnin
they miiBt take to heart.
If theirs is going to be the Republicanism of the flaiubca
club, the kerosene transparency and the stuffed shirt, th
independent voters, in fact the rank and file of the state,
will have no patience with it, and won't be backward about
registering their resentment at the ballot box.
But if it's going to be a new kind of Republicanism, a
Republicanism that has something more above tho collar-band
than a larnyx in a constant state of apoplectic excitement
something more in its head than glittering generalities and
pious platitudes,
In other words a Republicanism, that is alive, enlightened
and up-to-date,
A Republicanism that refuses to insult the intelligence of
the voters by claiming all the virtues, and consigning to its
opponents all tho vices,
But gives DEFINITE REASONS why at this particular time
its candidates should be chosen in preference to their opponents,
and supports those reasons by facts and figures and arguments
that have nothing whatever to do with party regularity or party
pride, in short with narrow partisanship, but everything
to do with good government, with honest and efficient adminis
tration and therefore with the better welfare of this state and
all the people in it,
And finally if this new Republicanism, is NOT so blind to
the political realities, that it can be maneuvered into the posi
tion of opposing tho basic principles of the New Deal, whiclr as
Bruce Barton pointed out, whether we like them or not, have
come to stay,
THEN, the Republican party will have some chance to win
the November election in this state, and if it wins, will deserve
its victory,
But, as the Salem Capital-Journal points out there will be
no such result, if the psychology which prevailed at Salem
is to become the party's campaign key-note.
The Dog Poisoner
A hh Mcdford is thoroughly aroused over the depredations of
antiA MiKmpflltnMf. rlrir. pnisoner.
" I " " D I
This dog poisoner has been scattering poison meat about
for several months. His activities have been confined to two
districts in the city only however. Yet there have been no
arrests, and as far as can be determined, at the present writing
there promise to be none!
We can think of no greater menace to this community at
the present time, than having a sadistic pervert of this sort at
large, and it would seem that the city police, aided by the state
police, might devise ways and means, to apprehend the culprit
and put a stop to it.
Regarding the most recent tragedy the Oregonian has the
following timely editorial comment to makes
A MKitord dog named "Kip" d a duck hunter from
drowning In a Klamath lak lut winter, by awlmmlng out and
towing him to ahore. The man had only to call "Htlpl" and
tha Intelligent retriever responded. Thl "Kip" wa quite a dog.
It la unfortunate that the put tenae must be employed, but
the fact of the matter la that "Kip" will never wag a tall again,
cork an attentive ear, go with hla maater where the mallard! ara
rl.lng from the water nor by the way. aave anyone again from
death. "For "Kip" himself la dead.
A stealthy someone with a hateful heart tossed poison In
the yard of "Kip s" master, and so the good dog died treacher
ously and cruelly killed by one of those earns god-like creaturea
to whoar distress-and peril he waa ready to respond. The story
of this crime la valuable to us -for Its sharp and undeniable
contrast of "Kip." the dog that waa humane and chivalrous,
and his unknown poisoner, the man who la a dog. It Is regret
table that one must admit, on thla plain evidence, that a good
dog is Immeasurably better than an evil man.
All true.
No question about how this community arid the entire state
FEKI.S about it, hasn't the time come to DO something about it !

The most cursory inspection of the
national labor map will reveal the
reasons for the C, I. O. leaders' fright.
In Ohio, for example, Governor Dav
ey Is a bettern-than-even bet for re
election, in spite of a record consid
erably more odorous than George
Earle's. Davey la the avowed enemy
of the C. I. O., and, Democrat though
he Is, enjoys the support of many
large Industrialists In hla state. If
Davey wins in the end, his first ob
jective Is likely to be breaking the
Ohio C. I. O. unions.
In spite of the C. I. O. support of
the Democrats, the Republicans have
a good chance in Pennsylvania. The
story of Jersey City Is known to tt:
world, but It has less publicized par
allels in New Orleans, Memphis, and
Kansas City. In California, Mlchl
gon. Minnesota and many other
states, the tide of vlgllantlsm Is ris
ing. And, everywhere, an Intensive
drive Is being carried on against the
national labor relations board.
All these developments together
add up to a real threat of an out
break of labor-baiting, particularly
directed against the C. I. O. The A
F. of L leaders, clad to see the C. I.
O. industrial unions In danger, will
give old and comfort to the attack
ers. This growing antl-C. I. O. feel
ing among ti:e farmers will keep
many politicians quiet. And thus, in
the nation, the C. I. O. leaders can
look only to the president, while, In
local situations, they must make
such compromises with expediency as
their indorsement of George Baric.

My Cabin
(By Bertha B. Charley)
In a hollow In the hills above the
village.
Nestled coztly .within the asoen
grove.
Just below the crystal spring - '
Where the rippling waters sing.
Stands the little old gray cabin that
I love.
Made of poles of larger aspens from
the valley,
Silvered o'er with paper for the wood
wasp's nest,
Chinked between with creamv clay.
Chimney stones of granite- gray, !
Is my little old gray cabin In the
west.
Come and listen to the murmur of
the water.
Come and listen to the meadow
lark's refrain.
Watch the butterflies and bees.
In the bower of wild sweet-peas.
Or hear the welcome patter of the
rain.
Sit with me beside my cozy hearth
In winter,
Oh I Choose any season that may
seem the best.
There's no matter where you roam
You will never find a home
Like my little, old. gray cabin In the
west.
