Oh, Where-oh, Where, Will
Jeff-Johnson Battle Be Held?

Where is the Jeffries-Johnson
-miXup. scheduled to take place
July 4, going to be held, or is it
going to be staged at all?
There is either some very fine
politics going on between the
promoters or else the dear old
public is being made the butt
of one of the finest cases of
fourHushing ever seen.
The promoters, Tex Richard,
Jack Gleason and the others in
terested. all seem to be balled
up in a muddle. Richard has
chosen Salt Lake City, Utah, as
the scene of the battle and, de-
spite the statement of the gov
of Utah that a forty-five
round mill cannot be pulled off
within his bailiwick, has rented
the big Salt Air arena, giving, it
is said, q contract to the owners
to hold up his end. This place
has q seating capacity of 10000
and would be pretty good for
the purpose.
With almost as much emphasis
as Richard, however, Gleason is
dispensing bulletins to the eff
feet that San Francisco or it's
vicinity is going to be the ia
vored section.
Besides quarreling about the
place to fight. the promoters are
mud singing II another about
the money part. 1t is said that
only $4,000 Of the $101, 900 guar
antee has been put up. Those
who are shy in the pot are being
overhauled by those who have
advanced the little remnants.
What do you know about It?
Is it going to be held or not?

BEWARE OF FLOPPERS.

In his address at the court house
last night senator Chamberlain warn
ed local people against relying upon
legislative candidates who subscribed
tc statement No. under pressure and
at the eleventh hour. He said death
bed confessions" cannot be relied up
on because the sick men may get
well and then change their views. He
told a good story Illustrating the
point
Senator Chamberlain's reference to
this subject was timely in view of the
local senatorial contest. Senator
Smith has always been a statement
man and he has been tried in the
fire during the past eight years. Peo-
PIE know he stands by his principles.
Mr.. Burgess, his opponent entered
the campaign as an anti-statement
man. He is an assemblyite and was
brought into the race by assemblyites

always hated it. But Burgess found
he was on the unpopular side of the
fence and he has tried to flop. He
may be entirely sincere and may in
tend to stay flopped. But people
cannot tell about it. 1t is not safe to
send that sort of men to the state SEN
ate. Had the last legislature been
composed of such men they would
have been easy plucking" for Orms-
by McHarg. the shyster who came
out from Washington to get the state
ment men to violate the pledges they
had made their constituents.
If you believe in statement No. l
then vote for Senator Smith, a man
who has stood for statement No. l
all the time. Beware of the sudden
convert.

SMASH THIS CLIQUE.

The plea for party regularity is
made by the local assembly brigade.
Voter straight" is their cry and they
have their ward and precinct heelers
busy all over the county trying to get
republicans into line. But their
scheme will not work because the re-
prblicans of this county do not trust
the self appointed party leaders in
Pendleton. These leaders do not
represent the best of the republican
party in Umatilla county. They mere
l. represent a minority faction of the
party. They represent the assembly
or stand-pat faction. The great bulk
OF the republicans of Umatilla county
are progressive and they do not be-
lieve in machine rule. They don't
want TO see a few local peanut poll
ticians as Judge James A. Fee has
called them, build up a machine and
force other men to kiss their feet
ey erytime they want to run for office
OF do anything else.
This year the republicans of Una
tilla county have a chance to break
UP this little clique that wants to con-
troll the politics of the county and con-
roll for narrow and selfish purposes.
The way to break up their scheme
is through voting for men rather than
for the party labels they wear. There
are good men running for office up
On both tickets. Pick out the good
men regardless of partisanship. Pay
no heed to the man who shouts
voter straight" A man who makes
that plea is either an ignoramus OF
else he thinks you are one.

wipe the school out of existence. He
would not even stand for an appro-
priation to enable the school to fin

to its instructors.

BOWERMAN'S CONFESSION.

So Bowerman did not mean Wes-
ton, Ashland or Monmouth when he
made his statement to the effect thai
normal graduates had cost this state
S12,500 each. He referred TO Drain
and based his calculations on the al
legged fact that one year Drain had
but two in the graduating class and
the school had been given $4,000.
Such chicaneryi
st is an interesting confession
though for many reasons. It gives
an insight into the class OF data"
that was used against the normal
schools two years ago and is being
used now. 1t shows something of the
calibre of the assembly candidate for
governor OF oregon.
If Bowerman did not refer to the
schools at Weston. Ashland or Mon
mouth why did he not come out in his
speech and say so? His hearers
thought he referred to those schools.
Eisinterested men believed he did and
eaking his statement as true became
prejudiced against those schools. His
statement that graduates cost S12,500
each has gone abroad over the state
and is hurting the three normal
schools in their fight to gain support
under the initiative.
IT is natural people thought Bower
man referred to Weston, Ashland and
Monmouth. Those are the schools now
under consideration. They are the
schools Bowerman tried to kill two
years ago. The Drain school was ell
minated from the field four years
ago and it should have been eliminat-
ed Yet the Drain normal also was
Ifbelled by Bowerman. In its news
columns today the East Oregonian
publishes a statement, compiled from
official records, showing that during
me year referred to the Drain normal
received but s10,500 from the state
Tor all purposes and the school had
erman should now offer an apology
over the grave of the Drain normal
school for he has slandered the dead.
The East Oregonian rejoices that
at last the truth about the normals
Is coming forth and coming from the
school killers themselves. This pa
per has been an earnest supporter of
the three present normal schools and
especially Of the Eastern oregon nor
NAL. Through thick and thin the
East Oregonian stood by the Wes-
ton normal and it now thanks Al
mighty God it did. This paper sup
ported the Eastern Oregon normal
not merely through local pride but
for the further reason it believed the
school to be a meritorious institution.
Il believed it was doing good work
and that it had been jobbed for po-
Ntical reasons after having been
snamefully slandered. 1t is now plain
that this was the case and there Is
ample PROOF IN Jay Bowerman's own
confession.
And this is the calibre Of the man
who wants to be governor OF Ore
son. He was not lying about the
schools at Weston, Ashland or Mon
mouth. He was lying about Drain.
1T is quite likely good work was
done at the Weston school," he Is
quoted as saying. Out with such stuff
As this. It makes decent men sick.
Bowerman's friendship for the East
ern Oregon normal is as false as was
the kiss of Judas. He has soft words
now. But two years ago he would not
listen to the righteous plea OF that
