HE LIKES THE SYSTEM.

Col Roosevelt paid a high compli-
ment to the oregon system and he has
placed himself squarely in line with
the progressives of this state. His
speech at the armory in Portland left
nc doubt whatever as to where the
colonel stands. He stands here as in
New York, for cleanliness in politics
and for a government truly for the
people. In New York they class him
as a wild radical-because he holds
such views-while out here he declares
he appears as mild conservative. He
is a scholar, not a teacher.
Col. Roosevelt especially approves
CT the statement No. plan for elect
ing United states senators. He de-
clares that state after state will fol-
low oregon in the adoption of this
plan until the senate itself becomes
sufficiently reformed to pass the con-
stitudonal amendment providing for
direct election Of senators.
Roosevelt IS not afraid Of the peo-
pie. He knows their shortcomings
bu. he also knows their virtues and
their strength. He would like to see
them choose senator's direct They
may not always do well but they will
do better than do the legislatures. 1t
will never take the people four
months to elect a senator and they
will never at the last moment turn to
candidate who has never been men,
toned previously and concerning
whom few people know anything at
all-as was true Of the case Of O'Gor-
man in New York With direct cleo
tion Of senator's in vogue no combi-
nation Of capitalists will ever get to-
gether to "underwrite" the election
o. senator for 100000 as was done
when Lorlmer was chosen by the leg.
islature Of Illinois
Regarding the use Of the initiative
the referendum and the recall Roose
vel. had sensible suggestions. HI
urged that since the people Of Oregon
have taken the lead in the adoption
OF a progressive system Of govern
ment it is up to the people to see tina
the new system is used in prope
manner. The initiative and the ref
erendum should be maintained bu
not abused. Good government ma
not be obtained If the initiative an
referendum are abused anymore thai
can good government be maintaine
under the strictly representative sys
TEN when it Is abused.
From an Oregon standpoint tn
visit OF Col. Roosevelt was most sat
isfactory. Aside from the pleasure {
having in our midst such a distin
guished citizen it was cheerful to hea
him speak we'll Of Oregon and Ore
gon ways. OF course there are pee
pie who did not entirely like his Por
land speech. 1t did not set we'll wit
the reactionaries. But the majorit
or Oregon people like the views {
Roosevelt and they admire the franl
ness with which he spoke.

jest at motherhood. The colonel is
chivalric and always ready to ex-
alt womanhood.
If all Of this is politics then it IS
politics of the right sort But it as
not mere politics. The colonel is
simply an all-around good American
citizen and acts like one-though up
on a big and strenuous scale.

Spring Tired?
Are You Weary and Run Down?
Are You Sick and Depressed? Is
Your Blood Thin and Poor?

Do you take cold easily? Do you
feel shivery? Utterly fatigued out
after little exertion? Is your COM
plexion bad? Do you feel that life is
not worth living? Nearly every one
has some OF these symptoms in
spring; for winter, while apparently
bracing, is all the time sapping your
strength. By spring every one is in a
more or less played-out condition
just right to catch any disease Not
always sick; but tired, tired, tired. To
carry you through the changeable,
trying, disease-breeding weather of
spring you need

ADVERTISING TALKS.


town called on the agent to see
if they would get the business.
The agent told them frankly
the advertisers purpose, but
this did not satisfy them and
they went over the agents head
and called on the advertiser him
self. 9
Instead of offering him sug-
gestions or cooperating with
him in any way, they remarked
how foolish he was to use this
one newspaper, which hadn't a
large circulation, and they so dis
gusted the advertiser that HE
STOPPED THE CAMPAIGN
ALTOGETHER and diverted to
another city the $4,000 he had
intended to spend in newspapers
in the first city.
So the city where he wanted
to gradually develop business
killed him off as an advertiser
through the asinine solicitation
of the newspaper representatives
who did not get the first copy.
Until newspaper representa-
tives are willing TO cooperate
with each other-until they are
willing to encourage the adver-
!. tiser despite the fact that he
may use some other paper than
his own, it is going to be hard to
develop newspaper advertising
on broad lines.
HONORABLE COMPETITION
is all right enough, but the kind
of competition that tries to build
by tearing down somebody else
is menace to the development
of business.
