THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES
Continued from page |.

TIE two candidates for circuit court
commissioner, Messrs. l.. NJ, Phelps aud
O. w. Rowland, have each had eX-
perience in that office that fits them to
discharge its important duties. The
circuit court commissionershlp is gener.
ally regarded as a minor Office aud ~ u
sense it is such as it occupies out a
small portion of the time OF is occu pant
And yet the duties OF The flee are
important, IN many respects Oiug on a
par with the functions OF the circuit
Judge. The legislature has regarded it
as of so much Importance and as re-
curing so great a degree of legal ability
that it has decreed that no person except
an attorney of the supreme court of the
state shall be eigable to the Office
The other local candidates, Charles
h. Ashley for drain commissioners,
Warren III. Goss for county surveyor,
Messrs. j. L. Quigey and f. h. Cady
for coroners have all been tested, tried
and not found wanting
The republican ticket Is an excellent
one from top to bottom, from president
to coroner, national, congressional, legis-
lative and local, deserving OF support
and ought to carry the county by good
majority without single exception.

shnm OF the straw Votes.

Some Of our contemporaries
have been covering a lot of good
white paper with straw ballots
for the Presidency, and remind
ing their readers that "a straw
shows which way the wind
blows. They refrain from
quoting a still older saying by
the Apostle Paul, which is much
more pertinent to the present
political situations:
"The wind likewise carrieth chaff,
stubble and such like things along
with il, but houses we'll founded
stand firm so the doctrines OF false
teachers carry aside unstable per-
sons
1t seems almost absurd that a
straw ballot should have any
weight, yet it does seem to have
with some folks in and out of
the newspaper business. For
their benefit we give the Port
land Oregonian's account of four
straw ballots taken in the main
street Of Corvallis, Ore, recent
ly by four different canvassers:
George Deuman first passed the
hat and got following results: Taft,
100 Cfafin, 2; Wilson, 0; Roosevelt,
O; Debs, O..
Then Bob johnson tried it and pro-
duced the following results Wilson,
90; Debs, 3; Taft, o; Roosevelt, o.;
Chain, o.
Next, DR.. Hanford employed the
scheme and proved that the bull
moose was rampaging in Corvallis
in this wise: Roosevelt, 13; Wilson,
/; Taft, 0; Chain, o; Debs, o.
AS there was still some dissatis-
faction, Henry price went out on
the same street and found the wind
blowing as Indicated: Debs, 8: Will
son, l; Roosevelt, l; Taft, 0; Chain, @.
All of which shows that the
political wind does not blow

the fellow taking the straw
ballot wishes. Inter Ocean.

HUSTLE is THE WATCHWORD
Stakes are Big and Worth Great Effort. Candi-
dates are All Hustng.
.3RD WEEK OFBIGCONTEST
Districts Friends
Should Line Up and Lend Help. Thousands
Pouring

We are now entering the Third week
of the great contest. The field IS
organized and the contestants are
settling down to the real work of the
campaign.
Your opportunity Is all ahead of you
and grand opportunity it is. Has the
chance ever before been offered you, OF
obtaining such handsome prizes as The
True Northerner is putting within your
grasp? We think not. The 1925
Jensen piano, the beautiful oak dining
room suite, the exquisite SO diamond,
the handsome mahogany bedroom suite,
the sparkling little $50 diamond and the
fine little gold watch-Six prizes in
all-each one of them worth everv effort
you may make for the next four weeks.
Remember there are two districts and
three prizes must go to each district,
This is fair and impartial method Of
distribution. One district can have no
advantage over another. But remem-
Der also that contestants may obtain
votes anywhere. The districts have
nothing to do with your work. They
simply determine the distribution of the
prizes.
Another thing we wish to impress
upon the contestants is this: Do not
hold back your subs. with the expecta-
ton of getting a greater value for them
at the close. IL you do you will be
disappointed Each week we will give
extra bonus offers, but they will be
decreased. Your subs are worth more
NOW than later. Turn them 10 each
week. You will then be certain OF
getting the highest value for them.
This is alsu fair to the workers who
have been faithfully hustling from the
start. The bonus offers for this week

Now you contestants who are in this
race to win, HUSTLE ia the watch word.
Hundreds of subscribers have rot been
asked for their subscriptions. Some OF
you are going 10 get them, but you must
ask for them. They are going to pay
their 50 Inscriptions; aud it will cost them
20 more if they pay YOU Winter will

thinking of reading matter for the long
evenings. Get them for The True
Northerner. These prospects are here,
scattered all about you. You need not
have the slightest hesitancv on ap-
proaching anyone for subscription To
The True Northerner It's only
dollar and worth every cent Of it-live,
newsy, printed all at home-it should
enter hundreds more homes, and will.
A failing of many contestants is that
they decide for themselves who will sub
scribe and who will not, and thereby
mss many a prospect that is later
snapped up be the contestant who goes
after them ali. You are never sure. of
prospective subscribers until you have
seen them and exhausted every argu-
ment and effort to get them.
And now one word to The True
Northerner readers: Over score of
workers are hustling for the prizes
Surely among these you have a friend.
Can you imagine the investment OF a
dollar that would bring more satsfac-
ton to him or her than your subscrip
ton to The True NorthernerY A re.

\ Probably no single exhibit at the Paw
Paw fair this fall attracted as much
attention as that shown by Mr.. and Mrs.
Chas. X. Cadman, which consisted of
curios brought from various countries,
but more especially from those of
Latin America.
During his active business life Mr..
Cadman has been almost constantly
engaged n his profession OF civil
engineer, and his work has taken him
into the southern countries largely. lie
was for a time chief engineer Of the
Canarea aud Yaki railway in Mexico
and built over 100 miles of this road
while serving in that capacity. Ills
labors i'm this connection were largely
in the country formerly occupied by the
famous old Apache chief, Geronimo and
his band of war like savages and while
on the grounds of this noted band was
enabled to pick up many interesting
relics OF value. Mrs. Cadman, who Is a
daughter of Hon. Louis Kaiser formerly
u. s. consul to the west coast Of
Mexico, accompanied her husband during
his residence in this part of Mexico,
she being the only white woman among
a population of $50 people, three fourths
of which we're native poems. Mr.. and
Mrs Cadman lived in a tent all this
time, and although at an altitude OF
10000 feet above sea level, suffered no
particular hardship.
Mr.. Cadman was later appointed as
an engineer on the Mexican Central
railway and helped construct that road
from Colima to the port OF ManiZalla
but 10 the meantime he had applied for
and received an appointment as division
engineer on the Panama canal and
assumed his duties there in 1907. He
held this position for two and one-hslf
years, having charge OF Bias O'IIispe
division on this great work.
At the close of his work on the canal
he took the position OF assistant engineer
under b. j. Arnold, president of the
Arnold Engineering company, who was
chief engineer of the Chicago subway
under Mayor Busse. A change OF ad.
ministratIon, however, deprived him OF
his position when he went west in
charge OF various irrigation and re-
clamatiou projects.
During all this varied and unusual
experience 10 the various countries
