WHICH IS RIGHT, THE CANDIDATE OR PARTY
Candidate Hughes in his speech at Albany, New
York, Thursday, intimated that our flag under the pres
ent administration meant only "an invitation to come
home." If this is true what did it mean under President
Taft when he told the citizens of Douglas that if they
were in danger from Mexican' bullets to move out of their
way? That was not an invitation "to come home" but
a suggestion that American citizens leave their homes if
Mexican bullets made them dangerous. It is one of the
nnfnvhinate thines for Candidate Hughes that his party
leaders have so acted that no matter what course he takes
he runs up against something they have done that he has
rn JtrraPK wrnie anacrum; x i
tho rhild Labor Bill because
iron vpf rlnims Vip himself
signed a similar bill. Why? He must have known that
bill could not affect the children of other states. Then
whv sign it since it did not apply to all the children of
the United states f tie stuumes nimseu in ms unucn..
He takes the position that since the bill would not pre
vent all children from being worked in the sweat shops
that none should be so prevented.
He is met with the same situation in his attacks on
the eight hour bill. He says he favors the eight hour law,
but objects to the Adamson bill because, as he says, it only
applies to 20 per cent of the railroad employes. Candidate
Hughes believes in the theory of an eight hour day but
objects to it as a fact. At the same time he, with his
vociferous right bower, attacks the administration for
its "cowardly surrender" to force. Here again Candi
date Hughes is up against the actions of his own party.
The venerable "Uncle Joe" Cannon so long leader of the
republican House, voted for the bill and was one who was
therefore guilty of a "cowardly surrender to force." Not
only did "Uncle Joe" cast is vote for the eight hour bill
but so did two of the three republican congressmen from
this state Sinnott of eastern Oregon, and the congress
man from this district, Mr. Hawley. This was not all
either, for the record shows that seventy republican
congressmen in all voted for this "cowardly surrender to
force," and only 5G against it. A majority of 14 repub
licans favored this "cowardly surrender." Why then
does Mr. Hughes confine his attacks on this account to
the administration? Why not assail the 70 republicans
who were equally guilty with their democratic confreres
in "surrendering to force?" .
Mr. Hughes says "A promise to respect the rights of
smaller nations should be kept a reality," and he said this
while the pugnacious colonel who, as president started a
revolution in Colombia and robbed that little country of
the Panama zone, was out helping him criticize the pres
ent administration;
He insists the republican party shall be returned to
power principally that the tariff may be revised by it,
forgetful of the fact that a few years ago after promis
ing a revision of the tariff, by all implication, downward,
it was shoved the other way; a fact largely responsible
for Woodrow Wilson occupying the presidential chair
today. He also overlooks the fact that his party has ad
vocated the appointment of a tariff commission of busi
nessmen who would look into the whole matter and pro
vide a tariff based on business principles rather than on
party expediency. This commission the present admin
istration has provided for, and in a short time it will be
at work. Here again Mr. Hughes runs counter to his
party, unless indeed it was only stalling when it sug
gested a businessmen's commission to establish a sensi
ble tariff. ,
So it goes through the whole list. The things Mr.
Hughes most objects to are things his party is against
him on. Which is right, bis party position heretofore, or
Candidate Hughes now.
The fight between Pendleton and Weston over the
location of the normal school reminds one of the good old
knock down and drag out days of politics. Weston adver
tises to vote no on r09, insisting such action will "nail
some great Pendleton lies," and Pendleton is not back
ward about saying "your's another."

Mr. Hughes says he "wants to see labor employed at
the best wages, with proper hours and wholesome condi
tions." Yet he says the Adamson bill is wrong because
it was an attempt to raise wages not to establish an eight
hour day. What does he mean, if anything, by best
wages," and what by "proper hours?" Mr. Hughes'
position is as indefinite as

CLIFFORD
CHAPTER LXVII.
To my delight, and, I confess it, to
my surprise, Clifford took me to sup-
;er. It was a buffet affair and I en
joyed myself immensely. But my pleas
ure was entirely spoiled when Clifford
remarked as 1 proposed leaving:
'I have asked Mrs. Horton to drive
home with us. She will be down in a
minute."
I said nothing. Evidently it had all
been arranged with no thought of con
sulting me. So I stood meekly by, but
raging iuwardly, until Mabel Horton,
smart iu fashionable furs appeared.
'Have 1 kept you waiting! 1 in so
sorry!" she gushed.
'Only a minute,' Clitford, tne most
impatieut of men if obliged to wait,
smilingly replied as he assisted her into
the car.
Although I had tried hard to make
myself think otherwise. I felt that Ma
bel Horton was the real reason Tor Clif
ford's acceptance of Muriel's invita
tion. Something of this must have been
reflected iu mv face; for I saw, or im
agined I saw, Mrs. Horton dart a shrewd
look at me, as she stepped into the
car.
'I never should have dared to come
if Cliff hadn't promised to take me
home," she remarked to me. "I am
horribly timid about going out at night
iu a hired vehicle."
Prearranged.
So it waa all arranged that Clifford

the character of an associate or chance

is toned up by the sight of a neatly
dressed person! We involuntarily give
a mark of approval and mentally re
solve to . do better ourselves. Then,
too, neglect of our apparel and person
lends others to believe wo will be
neglected and inefficient in our var
ious occupations, and this decreasea
our commercial prospect and value in
this age of efficiency. It is our duty
to ourselves nnd to humanity to ap

the effect upon ourselves can not be
overestimated. We have an abundance
of assurance, self-respect and "pep"
which fires us with enthusiasm and de
sire to overcome our various petty ob
stacles nnd mount to some higher and
better level. We command respect and
admiration. No advertisement is as
effective as well dressed people. It

arose a beautiful stone structure. This
is the new Union Depot and is located
on the old site of "The House of a
Million Bargains. ' ' This depot is mod

play ground where children may play
during long waits.
Tuesday morning I went to visit the
high school. I was going to the build

DRESS UP SALEM
(By Catherine Vincent, Seventh Grade)'
Salem, dress up! Put on your best
bib aud tucker; adorn yourself in your
very best! Clean up your stores, aide
walks, alleys, streets, and lawns. Mr.
Storcinan, clean up your store, put a.
new display in your window. Have
things iu through your store clean and
in order. Salem, don't have dress up
week once a year, but every week of
the year. Let people come to Salem and
say, "Salem doesn't need a special
week called ' Dress Up Week ' because
n town of Salem's' size could not be
much cleaner dud neater." My, would
not Salem be proud though f I think
most any city would be.
Now, don't think that this is impoe
sible, because it isn't. It can be done,
ami Salem above ull cities shall da
this. Let people .come and go from Sa
lem and say that the7 have not found
a cleaner and uioro modem city of Sa- .
loin 's size any where in their travels in
the United States.
Give people n chance to brag on SiJt
lcm, let them praise Salem for her fine
buildings anil her good roade lending
in nil directions from Salem, to the dif
ferent towns aud cities around Slcm.
There are other things that should
attract people to Salem, nnd some of
these are the State Institutions, beau
tiful in their lawns, drives aad shrub
ery. The Insane Asylum is especially,
beautiful along these lines.
Now, Salem people, don't knock but
boost! Yon 'II profit by it, nnd so will
vonr city. Now, do your best for the
capital city of Uregon. Salem.
Committeej have been appointed and
("H active ennvats will begin next week
bv those interested in the Old People'
Home for the raising of $5,000 in Sa
lem. Of tho amoupf. to be raised, $900
was subscribed without solicitation.
Those in charge cf the city canvas feel
that the iutitutiou is so worthy of the
support of Salem people, aud the ad
vantages of a $25,000 home here such
that thoy will have no difficulty what
ever in raising the amount within
week's canvas. By the raising of $5,
000, Salem will receive $15,000 from
ouiside -sources, nnd with the $5,000 now
available by the home, $25,000 will be
Vfpcded for a new .building.
