IMPORTANTI
The local Republican Democratic
parties through their state chairmen
have named their committees and
aides to assist in conducting the
campaign. But as usual no colored
man or woman Is named on either ot
the committee«. Maybe the LaFol-
lette state chairman will rerognlse
and appreciate the colored vote in
Oregon to the extent ot naming on
his campaign committee some worthy
colored man or women, knowing, as
all three parties must know, that the
colored vote in Oregon is now the
balance ot power In any election In
this state as well as national.

Concord of the Infinitive With the
Principal Verb
(a) When the infinitive refers to
a time either coincident with or af
ter that of the principal verb, the
present Infinitive is used, thus:
In the following examples the time
of the Infinitive Is either coincident
with, or after that of the principal
verb.
1. I mean to write. I Intend to go.
I am happy to meet you.
2. I meant to write, not I meant to
have written.
I Intended to go, not I Intended to
have gone.
j I hoped to see her, not I hoped to
have seen her.
It was their duty to tell him, not
It was their duty to have told him.
b) When the infinitive refers to a
time prior to that of the principal
verb, the perfect Infinitive Is used;
thus:
I am happy to have met you (pres-
ent).
I am glad to have been remeta-
bered (passive).
