Before the registration is closed for the general state elec tion, notices are up to register for the city election, " What a farce and a fraud the registration system in Oregon is, anywayl No one should pay any further attention to it, and all should demand the right to vote on their former registration this year, The present registration law was the last precious gift to the people from a legislature run by the Machine. That was fifteen years ago, but the machine Is just as ig norant today as it was then, or it would repeal such laws, ' . o- ' REV. WILSON IS HARD UP. Rev, Clarence True Wilson was advertised at Heppner as having a joint debate with Col, Hofer to help him get a house, At Pendleton the same thing was done, and . shows th? waning influence of the Prohibition leader in his campaign. The last joint debate that Col. Hofer engaged in with that gentleman was at Ashland and that was two months ago, The editor of this paper went out with Dr, Wilson as a cour tesy to him, when he was not able to get crowds to hear him. Now, on the strength of that, Dr, Wilson is advertising con tinuously, or beinp; advertised, as having more joint debates, As a result of his campaigning in Oregon Dr, Wilson has got a position on a big salary in Chicago for his church. We do not begrudge him, but wish he would not allow any more use of a good man's name to boost a falling cause, A PLEA FOR MEN AND NOT THINGS. BAKER CITY WELCOMES BOWER) CITY PRIMARIES NOV. 5 CITY ELECTION DEC. 5 GREAT AND ENTHUSIASTIC MEET j INC TESTIHE8 TO HIS VUVV LA HIT V IN THE row COCXTIES AMI AMONG THE MINERS. Take the workingman, and what interest has ho In the election that is going to be held? . He labors on the street, in the sawmill, or drives a team, or pushes a smoothing plane. He is shut out from voting unless he registers; he is put to great trouble to vote, and what for? He gets nothing but grafts, officials, taxes, trusts and an aristocracy of wealth eats him alive. Half the laborers are disfranchised in one-way and another and the legislature turns down labor bills, The so-called labor leaders sell their influence and enact new complications in the way of laws. Manhood suffrage and manhood laws are farther and farth er removed by the complicated systems invented by the bosses, How many laboring men can understand the thirty-one J measures that are put up to them to vote for this year Are they not mostly measures invented by the predatory class who want more power to use for the spoliation of labor ers, When you telll the truth, is not government a big graft? o , ERROR OF THE LABOR PRESS. 1 The Portland Labor Press is supporting only the Demo cratic candidates for Governor and State Printer, This is a strange attitude for ii newspaper to take that is supposed to represent laboring men of all parties. This will react against the cause of labor when it comes beforo tho next legislature with" labor bills, " - A Republican governor and a Republican state printer will be elected and the legislature will be Republican. Then what position will this labor newspaper be In to champion measures for the benefit of laboring men? Some newspapers undertake to shapo up the affairs of the Republican parly, and the rest of the parties. In tjto elf oil to carry out selfish policies in the interest of a certain combination they abandon principles and endanger policies that aio of tho hip.hesi importance, This mistaken policy of tho Labor Press should be repu diated by honest labor organizations, o 1 THE KIND THAT GO TO THE WALL. Who are tho business men that go to tho wall, nine times out of ten? Are they not the kind that think they can get along without newspaper advertising? :: f I Ask one of that kind if ho takes the homo paper, or if ho advertises at Salem? n Ho will tell you that he takes a Portland paper, and adver tises oh the fences. Ho will try forty different ways of advertising, except the newspapers of the town, All the time he is running behind and wondering why he is not building up a trade. The busy, busy world is forgetting a'l about him, and is pat ronising others. He squanders his money on all kinds of advertising fakes and gets no results. He lets the faker woik him and write his ads for him, and plays a losing game, Then tho business is sold out, and he is not even referred to as noinq out of business, Tho fact is there was no business to go out of. Baker, Or., Oct. 12 .Acting Gov ernor Bowerman addressed a large and enthusiastic meeting at the Bak er theater this evening, and, in the opinion of the majority of those pres ent, won many votes. The meeting was presided over by Representative McKlnney, and a number of short ad dresses were made by other speakers, Including George Cochran, of . La Grande, candidate for water commis sioner. Mr. Bowerman was given a great ovation when he was Introduced, and in the beginning of his remarks paid a tribute to Senator Hart and ex-Senator Rand, of this city. His speech was mainly on the supporting of par ty pledges In the past by himself and associates, and ho was frequently In terrupted by applause. He said In part: "I am not here either as an assem bly or anti-assembly candidate, but simply as the cholco of the Republi can primaries, and have no pledges other than those which I have sup ported In the past and those which I will heartily support In the future, if I am chosen governor at the polls In November, I stand for direct primary and all laws put In operation by the people, whose Interests I have always served, and will so continue." Mr. Bowerman gave Senator Bourne a thrust, saying emphatically that the senator was Ignorant of the needs of the peoplo, and that candi dates recommended by him were merely nanicd by the senator because they were those who would do his blddlnit If elected to offlce. He also said that the aim of some of the sen ator's ofnce-holders at the present time waa to further his Interests and to the detriment of their duties In a public capacity. "I promise that If 1 at.y elected governor that in one item alone I will save the taxpayer $50,000 a year, and that It In the purchase of supplies for the state Institutions. When I was called upon to assume the duties of the governor's offlce the djscrepan cles In this matter were badly believ able. ' . gome of the public institutions were getting their supplies for just one-half what some of the others were paying, and, being of an Inquis itive turn of ml-d, I have found the loaks and remedied the condition. I promise that if elected I will" still further save the taxpayers In these matters." Mr. Bowerman appealed to the peo- nle stronaly on the ground that In; case or his dereai eastern uregon would be without representation In the state, all other candidates being from coast points or west of the mountains. Stormy weather did mn keop the people away from the mooting. The acting governor arrived In the city at noon today, and was buy all day meeting local politicians and promi nent Republicans. He Is eunortng from a severe cold and a hoarseness as the result of continued Hpeaklng, but nevertheless made hlmttelf clear ly understood, and at the condition of his speech was accorded a great ovation. Every Citizen Should Go to the Polls Let It Be a "People's Election" Capital Journal Will Take a "Straw Ballot" and Publish Results. City primaries Saturday after noon, November 5. City election Monday, December 5. Tlte officers to be elected are: mayor, recorder, marshal and treas unr, and one alderman from each of the seven wards. It la claimed that a special regis tration of voters will have to be made for this election, and no one can vote at the primary who doe not register again. This Is denied by some who claim that tho general registration for each of the seven wards now com pleted at the city hall should be tak en and that seems reasonable! Any other construction means that the professional politicians and the official elements alone wll take iart and the citizens, and taxpayers will not be forced to register over again to vote, at the city election. The city council can by resolution declare the general registration In the wards as legal and sufficient and allow nil who have not done so to register. Common sense and economy dic tate that the registration shall be taken as already made and not yet completed for the general election and not compel all the people In the seven wards to dd over again what they have Just done. The Retiring OITIclnl". Officials whose terms expire at the end of the year are Mayor Rodgers, City Recorder Moores, City Marshal Gibson, City Treasurer Crossan, Al derman Johnson in the first ward, Lachmund In the second ward, Stolz In the third ward, Sauter in the fourth ward, Hill In the fifth ward, Greenbaum In the sixth ward, Car sonin the seventh ward. It is un derstood that Marshal Gibson will not be a candidate for re-election, ii nil that Aldermen Stolz and Carson -vlll rot be up for re-election. Mr. fitolz ueBlres to give more time to his own business and Mr. Carscfo expects to be elected to the state senate. Candidates for City Marshal. There are already two candidates In the field for the office of city marshal and chief of police Ira Hamilton and Walter W. Johnson. The former Js constable of Salem district and the latter Is a guard Ht the state penitentiary. There will be a very spirited contest for this place. Arouse Public Interest. There Is talk of organizing e municipal league for the purpose of arousing Interest In the. city cam paign, and get the people to express themselves. With small registration only a few voting, the selection of candidates Is not left to the people but cunning manipulators try to have but one cand'date come out for each office and have a dozen votes In each ward determine who city offi cials are to be? To contribute to the general Interest The Capital Journal will take a straw ballot and asks citizens to fill out the enclosed ballot and send It In to The Journal office where the votes will be pub lished from day to day and the total counted a few days before the pri mary to show what Interest the peo ple really take In the matter. Fill out the ballot below and send It '.n to this office. The b"aJlot,wHl be se cret and merely for the purpose of helping to bring out an expression of Interest on the part of the people.
