PAGE TWELVE 1 h ' Chnrlei A. Hpraffti (Republican Candidate) - His ancestors settled In Salem, Maw., In 1038 and apread westward with the great migrations. The can didate waa born at Lawrence, Kan.. In 1887. The family moved In a few montha to Columbus Junction, Iowa. He financed his education at Mon mouth, 111., college by teaching and writing for newspapers. Through hta Job as correspondent, Sprague formed associations which led him to a pub lisher's career years later. At 33, Sprague went to Waltsburg. Wash., as school superintendent and In three years waa appointed sup erintendent of public Instruction for the state of Washington at Olympla. A hankering for newspaper work per suaded htm to purchAM the Jourmtl fcWmes, a weekly, at RKzvllle, Wash.. In 1916. He pierced a larger newspaper field In 1031, buying an Interest in the Oorvallls Gazette -Times, He sold hta hare at a substantial profit In 1020 and bouRht a two-third interest In the Salem Statesman where be Is publisher. Sprague has maintained a deep nd actlTa devotion to community and educational problems. He Is trustee for both Willamette univer sity and Albany college. He has been a steadying Influence In Republican politics for many years and In 1034 waa keynoter at the State Republi can club convention. He has two children, a daughter who Is a bacteriologist at Sun Jose, Cel., and a son who la a student at Oberlln. Sprague believes In a atable and orderly government. He believes, too. the people want their highway de partment, state police department, liquor commission and all other state departments free from political spoils Abuses; that the state should have the benefit of the training and experience of competent employes. ' The candidate regards the existing liquor laws satisfactory without Im portant change. He assorts the WPA and state relief programs necessary until men now benefiting by such agencies have been re-employed In private enterprises at good wages. He aaserta It Is a libel on the humani tarian purposes of President Roose velt to aay the election or a Repub lican would cut off relief. He says he would take construc tive steps to build new sources of agricultural and Industrial Income. Ho agrees the stato should Increase Ha pension to the aged to the full amount possible under the law. He promises careful compliance with the federal program ao Oregon would not be exit off for allowing politics to creep In as they did In some other states.

JO1 Henry L. Hess (Democratic Candidate) Three decades ago thla 47-year old candidate for the highest office In state government wore the caulked boot of the northwest logger. Born at Rexburg, Idaho, Hess wti the second son among eight chil dren. HI parents, who moved Union where his father operated sawmill, recently celebrated th . golden wedding anniversary. The candidate, an inseparable coin panlon of two motherless sons, wa educated at Rexburg, Ricks college Idaho, Union high school and the University of Oregon. He waa admit ted to the bar in 1014. Young lawyer Hcaa waa a top ser geant In the United States expedi tion to France. Upon his return, he j The nominee went to the statu senate from Union and Wallowa ! counties In 1032 and served through 1 three regular And two special sea- slons. He was chairman of the for- : eatry and forest products committee i and the committee on counties. He j waa a member of the committees on j irrigation and drainage, revision of laws, and game and vice-chairman of the committees on education and ways and means. Hess has defined his platform as "liberal, progressive government em- ; bodying fundamental American prin ciples ada'pted to Oregon's changing needs." He advocates Individual farm own- i crshlp as against corporation farm- ! lng; long term farm financing at j low rates and equltablo distribution j of taxes between farmers and those ' "better able" to CArry the load. The candidate believes It la neces sary to develop Oregon markets un- , der Oregon labels; to encourage man ufacture of lumber end pulp by products; to work for a sustained forest yield. Labor must have the right to bar gain collectively, ho says, with wage and hours safegunrded by law. Ho declares for strict law enforcement, lntolernnt of violence and racketeer ing. His other points are old age pen sions to "properly care for" the aged, full use of the president's power pro gram, encouragement of WPA and PWA projects until private industry takes up tho slack, adequate educa tional facilities, development of rec reational resource nd the tourist trade.
