But he did 1t grandly.
What the Republican congressional
convention should do in this matter
is to elect a congressional committee
of one from each county. and then let
the candidate of the party name his
own campaign manager
The Journal would go step farther
and have law to make the chairman
give a public accounting of his ex'
penses of the campaign management
DR.. Harris has made an excellent
record as district chairman. He has
made two campaigns for the late
Thos. II. Tongue, and one for Mr.. Her.
Hermann.
He has a wide personal acquaintance
with the political speakers and pub.
lie men Of the district and state.
It is doubtful II better man could
be found for the position, and what is
said here is for the purpose Of cor
rectlng defect in the system. and
not of criticism of the work done.

Western Oregon is not an arid re-

forests are growing faster than they

In the three millionaire Southern
