Capital and Industry-Keep Out!
WOULD YOU, AS A PATRIOTIC CITIZEN OF OREGON, PLACE
SL’CH A SIGN ON THE BORDERS OF THE STATE ?
That is exactly what you will help to do if you do nothing to prevent
the passage of measure No. 314 and 315 on the November ballot entitled.
Constitutional Amendment Fixing Legal Rates of Interest in Oregon.”
r*8
3 his measure proposes to limit the rate of interest in Oregon to 5 per
cent. Y>u can by law, fix the rate of interest in Oregon, but you cannot,
by law, force the loaning of money in this strife, when a much higher rate
can be secured elsewhere, The passage of this measure would force the
withdrawal of the millions of foreign capita! which is today loaned on
factories, business and real estate in the state and send your local money
owners outside of the state to better investments!
I assage of this measure would mean foreclosure of thousands of
mortgages; would result in financial paralvsis, and would mean wide­
spread unemployment.

As is generally known, the present
Republican majority in the United
StUi.es Senate is Just one vote, Repub-
bliean control of that body is, there­
fore, in jeojardy. It is the reallzat-
tion of this fact which is causing
Oregon’s Republicans to unite in sup­
port of the candidacy of the Republi­
can nominee for United States Sena­
tor, Robert N. Stanfield. With a diff­
erence of only one in the present
Senate. Republican voters have awak­
ened to the fact that if they vote for
George E. Chamberlain they may by
that every act be turning the control
of the Senate over jo the Democrats.
On the other hand, by electing Rob­
ert N. Stanfield it is possible that ills
single vote may give the Republicans
control of the Senate, and thus put
that body solidly back of Harding.
Oregon producers are fearful of
the effect that the election of Cox
and a Democratic Senate would have
upon them. It is quite evident that
under Democratic rule rival products
of foreign origin would offer a ser­
ious menace to many Oregon prod­
ucts. It the American standard of
living is to be maintained, Oregon
farmers, livestock men, fruit grow­
ers, lumbermen and woolgrowers
must receive a price for their pro­
duct which will enable them to make
a reasonable profit over and above
the cost of produotion. They will be
unable to obtain such reasonable pro­
fit. or any profit at all, unless a Rep­
ublican administration is elected to
levy protective tariff duties just high
enough to save our producers from
the ruinous competition threatened
by Canadian wheat and lumber. New
Zealand butter, Australian wool, Ar
gentine corn, European beet sug: r.
South American meat and hides and
Mancljurian beans and peas.
To hamper a Republican President
with a Democratic Senate flies in the
face of the well accepted principle
that
governmental
management
should be centered, so that the peo­
ple can correctly place the responsib­
ility for success or failure. The feel­
ing among Oregon Republicans Is
therefore, becoming quite general
that Harding, if elected, is entitled
the support of a Republican Senate
and that .therefore Oregon should
elect the Republican Senatorial nom-
inee, Robert N. Stanfield, to help
back up Harding.

Up to Year 1900 th* Projections on
Mara Had Been Thought to
Be Mountains.
The first obser-. ers of projections on
Mars hud attributed them to the same
cause that produ-
projections on the
moon—that Is. mountains. Such they
were said to be In France and at Lick.
Tills view, however, wns in 1892 dis­
puted by W. H. Pickering, who consid­
ered them to be not mountains, but
clouds. This view was supported by
A. E. Douglass, who observed them in
1892 at Flagstaff, Ariz. The mountain
theory of their generation was shown
to be untenable and their ascription
to clouds proved to be the correct
theory In December. 1909. Only a sin­
gle projection was visible In 1900. 1903
and 1905. As a mountain does not
change its place, and as nothing was
seen where something had been vis­
ible. tiie phenomenon was proved to
not be a mountain peak. Now the only
other thing capable of catching the
light before It reached the surface
would he something suspended in tiie
air—that is. a cloud.
Deductions.
therefore, from the rarity of tiie phe­
nomenon aloe allowed that the pro­
jections must be clouds. Furthermore,
the projection war- smaller after the
lapse of 24 hours. The something that
caused it was not only not attached to
the soil, but was moving and dissipat­
ing as It moved along. Clouds are
the only bodies known to us which ac­
count
for
these
metamorphoses.
Clouds, then, and not mountains, are
the explanation of tiie projections of
Mars.—"Mars and Its Canals,” by Per­
cival Lowell.

LONG LOST USE OF WINGS
Ground Parrot, Found Only In New
Zealand. Interesting to the Stu-
dent of Evolution.
The wingless birds of New Zealand
are particularly Interesting to the na­ i
ture student as illustrating the process
of evolution. Nowhere but in their
native land could these birds have
survived, and, therefore, nowhere else
would they have become wingless.
New Zealand is the only region on
earth where there are no destructive
animals. Being unable to fly, the birds
could not, of course, have escaped
from any swift hunting animals such
as abound in all other lands. It Is In*
terestlng to note that the knkapo. or
ground pnrrot, once had the use of its
wings, but being a grass seed feeder
and .finding no enemies on the ground
gradually ceased to fly and eventually
lost the use of Its wings entirely,
though it can run very swiftly. These
birds are so gentle and so unconscious
of having any enemies thut if a per­
son sits down near one and keeps qui­
et it will presently tuck its head un­
der its wing and go to sleep. The
knkapo breeds but once In.two years,
and the mother bird carefully hides
the nest from her mate, though why
she does so Is unknown, the male
showing no desire to harm the eggs or
young birds. In this Infrequent breed­
ing Is demonstrated nature's thought­
fulness—having no destructive ene­
mies the knkupo would multiply to too
great numbers If the breeding season
occurred ns frequently as with other
birds.
