VOTE FOR OREGON
IS ADVIDCE GIVEN
(From Portland Spectator)
Republican who are urged to re
nounce party fealty, become nonparti
san and vote for Democrat, and who
are likely to auccumb to the epecioua
argument of the tempter, ahould re
member that when the Democrats
whom the Republican have elected
'vote in Washington it ia alway a
Democrats. The Democratic candidate
for congresa ia alway nonpartinaa ; the
Democratic congressman never.
At the coming election the Republi
can of Oregon have an important ques
tion to aettle: Do they desire that the
products of Oregon shall longer be ex
posed to the experiment of tariff-tinkering
free traders? Mr. Chamberlain,
after declaring in his ipeeche that a
reduction in the tariff on wool would
ruin our gheep men, voted for the re
duction. Whenever his party is ready
to make another reduction in the wool
tariff, Mr. Chamberlain, knowing that
the Democratic theory of international
trade i inimical to the prosperity of
his state, will have to vote with his
party.
Why should we longer make it necc
aary for Mr. Chamberlain to disobey
tba dictate of hia own conscience and
injure the interests of Oregon by vot
ing for free trade in the United State
senate? Oregon does not want free
tiade; then why not elect Mr. Booth to
the senate? Mr. Chamberlain say he
ia not in favor of free trade, but must
vote as his party demands. Why force
him to etulify himself?

Wolvcrton Replies to Sinnutt Editorial
Editor Glacier: My attention has
been called to an editorial intimating
"an apparent misrepresentation" of
Mr. Sinnott'a attitude on the liquor
(picstion, hy curtain champions of Mr,
( louver. Being somewhat conversant
with the matter, I feel impelled to re
ply.
To clarify the situation, I may say
we concede the right of any candidate
to declare himself upon this or any
other question, or to remain silent.
This attitude may be pretty accurately
determined fiom hi actions, as a citi
ren, his professional career, his declar
ations as a candidate. Now Mr. Sin-
nott as a resident of The Dalles has
been confronted with a live issue for
the past year the Baloon question,
What was his attitude? As to hia pro
fession, tho claim is made that two
years since ha was introduced in La
Grande as "The Brewers' Attorney."
He hHS a nomination by a party silent
on tne license issue, and Bince it is an
issue ai.d license is the present policy
or the government, silence is consent
to the present policy. Fortunately.
however, the direct primary permits
every candidate lor nomination to ex
press his own platform. So no one
need confine himself to any party plat
form, and last spring many voiced
their convictions upon this issuo. We
have one notable instance, Dr. J. E.
Anderson, now candidate for tho legis
lature, Mr. Sinnett had the same opportun
ity. He was silent. Since hia nomin
ation, the only expression we have as
you admit, is :-lle is waiting to hear
from his constituents on election day.
Now, 1 submit, that candidate for
such a position, national legislature,
should be Icadera of thought, not fol
lowers. If it he suggested that this
issue is a small matter 1, submit that
the tariff question is not considered a
small matter, and yet the change in
tariff rates as championed by the two
luading parties, involving a matter o'
one or two hundred millions is a mere
bagatelle compared to the waste by
the liquor traflic, involving the enor
mous sum of $S,Whi, 000,000. To be even
ailent on this question indicate, to say
tha least, a lack of appreciation of
questions which statesmen must solve
to bring prosperity to this people.
In conclusion, those who wish repre
sentatives (and no misrepresentativei)
in congress will vote only for persons
who have pre-election conviction. For
"wets" and "drya"" alike is not this
absolutely fair? Otherwise, to para
phrase Lincoln, "We want those who
think license is wrong to quit voting
with, and for, those who think it is
right." 15ru.ee Wolverton.
SCARED BY A FISH
Or Maybe It Was a New Species
of Inland Sea Monster.
A VISION IN RED EAGLE LAKE.
It Couldn't Have B.n Draam, the
Angler Admit That, Nor Baar, Nor
Shark, Though It Did Look Like a
Dog, but Anyhow and Luckily It Got
Away.
In camp on lied Eagle lake la the
Glacier National park, detoured Xtj
mosqultoea a big a culture, a fierce
as tiger and a numerous a drop of
water In the Taclfic ocean!
This U a bad beginning for a fish
story. The language eem to suggest
that the narrator ba already become
unreliable. A a matter of fact, phrase
which are strictly accurate may be
palpably misleading.
The language of hyperbole 1 needed
to present an adequate picture Per
haps the mosquitoes are not quite ao
big or fierce or nunieroua a stated, but
they aeeui to be.
Hut to the fish itory. And the lan
guage of vivid metaphor shall be laid
aside. What follow is fact un
adorned, uuexaggerated fact. I could
not have dreamed it I cannot even
now that I have begun to put pen to
paper hope to tell It In auch a way as
to bring the scene with realizing ear
uestnes before the eye of my brother
anglers.
It. was evening. I was on the lake
alone In my little canvas boat The
fishing had been good. I was return
ing to camp satisfied. The sack of fish,
my Ashing kit, discarded tackle, the
net, etc., lying at the bottom of the
boat. It seemed safer to leave the rod
to puke out over the stern, the flies
trailing the water out of mischief, as
I thought, where they could not get
tangled with any of the truck.
So I rowed along gently, happy in
the slaughter I bad accomplished and
wish lug my friends had been with me
to do their share. And the rod shot
over the stem of the boat before my
very eyes!
I hnd the presence of mind not to
make a forward dart and grab for it
as It disappeared. Such a violent move
ment would undoubtedly have col
lapsed my collapsible bunt I sat ia
speechless amazement, too startled for
thought
And then close by a mighty splash
ing and plunging. I turned and saw
on the top of the water something
swimming, a red brown head and
shoulders. I was frightened. It was
so huge.
1 thought of a bear, of a shark, and
stories of sea monsters flashed through
my mind. The thing was swimming
slowly. What 1 could see of it look
ed for nil the world like the head of a
magnificent St Bernard dog 1 used to
own.
Then 1 came to myself. I realized that
this was a fish of a species not known
to me and of an Incredible, unheard of
size. He had taken my fly, had book
ed hi nisei f on to the rod which he bad
dragged overboard and was swimming
slowly because he was drawing It
along the bottom of the lake.
I chased blm. He dived, came up
again with a splashing like that of
an elephant In a pond and smashed
dowu iigalu. Almost I could key? up
with him, bo slowly did he swim and
so much time did he wasto in bis
frantic efforts to get free.
If I had been able to row properly,
facing in a direction opposite to the
one iu which I was moving, I believe
I could have overtaken him. But I
needed to keep my eye on him, and
ao hnd to backwater with the oars,
losing power at every stroke. I was
thinking slowly. I was atlll too stun
ned to think normally. I was puzzled
by tho fact that such a monster did
not brenk my frail tackle iu a mo
ment There was no resistance so long
as the forty yards of line continued
to unwind or tho rod to move easily
through the water.
As often as he swung over and drop
ped down on the sir foot leader it aim
ply yielded beneath him. Five times
he rose, and the fifth time I was quite
near him. He seomed to be anything
from four feet to six feet long. I hove
nt home a muskellunge which I caught
five years ago In the St. Lawrence
river. He weighed thirty-two pounds
and measures forty-seven inches. This
fellow was much bigger and more ter
rifying. And I have no other means of
guessing nt his size and weight.
Then with the sixth leap and dive
something gave, and the monster was
seen no more. I rowed slowly back to
camp actually unnerved by the adven
ture. LLernlly nnd he who will may
laugh nt me I felt afraid to be alone
in the falling evening light, alone on a
piece of water Inhabited by such crea
tures as the one who hnd pursued me
and whom I hnd pursued.
1 was r.lad to hear the friendly hail
of my fcuhle from the landing place of
logs which we hnd constructed, to see
tlu glare of the camp fire and to sniff
the smell of supper. Then 1 reckoned
up my loss-a rod, $35; a reel, $17.50,
and a four dollar llne-nenrly $00
worth of property nt the bottom of
Red Englo lake! Itev C. F. Aked,

ENGINEERING FEATS.
Clev.r Triok With Which Em.rg.n.
ei Htvi Bten Mot.
Engineering is filled with an mn.
theks to meet emergencies that most
of them pass unnoticed, but two hava
recently attracted the attention of en
gineers because of their real oddity.
One was a acheinA fur iniini
blazing leak in a big high pressure gft
uimu in san Francisco. Some uuknown
men who wanted to
off a chemical preparation on the gas
uiain, witn tne result thnt lu a few
aeconds a hole hadbeen melted in the
main, the gas poured out and a great
flame shot twenty-five feet In tba air.
It. was tbeu after midnight, and it waa
very inadvisable to shut the big main
off, so it was decided to make an at
tempt to stop the leak without shutting
off the gas.
An oil well trick wa used. An iron
ple six inches in diameter and twenty
feet long was stood on end beside the'
gas main and then by careful manipu
lation placed directly over tba leak.
This sent the leaking gaa shooting
through the p!e and flaming out at the
top twenty feet in the air. Some gaa
leaked out at the bottom of the pipe,
but this was easily stopped, ao the only
flame was that at the top of the pipe.
Ropes bad been attached to the pipe,
and finally at n given signal tba ropes
were yanked and the pipe waa thrown
many feet away from the gas main.
The pipe carried the flame with it The
leaking gns then shot directly into the
air from the main, but as there was
do flame near it did not burn. It waa
then a comparatively simple task to
plug the hole until permanent repairs
could be made.
The other scheme was to get to the
top of a high chimney without using
scaffolding or other expensive methods.
The chimney rose two hundred feet be
side a Missouri power plant and it was
proposed to attach a sign running up
and down Its side. A little parachute
with a stout cord attached waa pushed
into the chimney at the bottom, the
flue gases carried it to the top and
then out Into the air. It fell on one
side, dragging the cord after It Then
by means of the cord a rope waa pass
ed up outside of the chimney and down
the Inside and the chimney top was
accessible. Saturday Evening Tost

GEM PERFECTION
WE WISH TO ANNOUNCE to swine raisers of
the Hood River Valley that we have secured
for service two of the finest Chester White boars in
the country. Gem Perfection, 24109, and Gem Prince
27911, which we will stand for $2.50 cash, with priv
ilege of return at our Pine Grove place. Gem Prince
is a young hog we have secured to serve the offspring
of Gem Perfection.
Gem Perfection was sired by Gem Imperial, 20821,
the grand champion boar of Idaho. His dam, Gem
Iola, 44348, took the sweepstakes sow, any age or
breed, at the Idaho State Fair in 1911.
Gem Prince was sired by Gem Napoleon, 24111.
His dam was Gem Biddy, 54332.
We realize that the Hood River Valley people are
becoming more interested in hogs every day, and we
have purchased these fine males to meet the demand
for good stock." We will be glad to have all growers
see our hogs.
