scientific and correct mechanical
lines. At first the reflectors were
mere theories constructed in a hap

the best results. They did about
everything but reflect the light to
its best possible advantage to the
correct spot. Now they make light
reflectors after blue prints and ac-
curately figured drawings, obtain
ing high efficiency in light reflec-
ton, and no matter where you want
the light, or what you want it for,
there is reflector properly design
ed for that very purpose.
Nothing is so easily wasted as ar
tificial light, Because sunshine is
free, and there is vast abundance
of it, is no reason why we should
be so extravagant with artificial
/ light which costs real money. The

Harry H. Collier Tells How He

States

Pendleton, Ore, Feb 1.-THE
following is from the Pendleton
East Oregonian:
Harry H. Collier of Tacoma, own
ier of the Progressive Democrat.
passed through the city Saturday en-
route to Kallispel, Montana. Mr..
Coiiier judges poultry shows all
lover the northwest from California
to Montana Speaking of politics In
1.-THE states he has visited he said:
81 have judged poultry shows IN
California, Oregon, washington,
Idaho and Montana Being news
paper man I have taken quite lla-
tie interest in getting the sentiment
lof the people as to their choice for
president this summer. Wherever I
Ihave gone I have found that tfe
progressive sentiment outnumbers
1.-THE standpat element in both par
tiles. The republicans would like, In
iaH of the states mentioned, to see
progressive delegates sent to the
national convention. California
under the leadership of Governor
Hiram johnson, will send delega-
Ition for Senator LaFollette, while
| the democratic sentiment is strong
| for Governor Woodrow Wilson. The /
conventions will instruct for VIII |
|soH wherever conventions are held, |
and the people wilfiyote for Will |
son wherever they have chance to |
voice their sentiment.
Zone of the surprises that has |
come to me in travelling over the !
states named is the great interest
being taken by the young men of I
the country. Strike young man ,
and one finds progressive. He |
may be a democrat or he may be
republican, but ninety cases out of /
hundred he either favors Wilson |
or LaFollette and | believe that the !
majority Of the young men are for
Woodrow Wilson.
THE democrats are not going to
be satisfied with sending Wilson i
democrats to the nation
al convention, but they are going
to see that those men sent are true
They will not take a
chance of sending some reactionary
who would like to get back to Bal
timore and tie up with the stand !
pat element, but they are going to
see that every man that goes is a I
progressive at heart and the trim 1
mer will be left at home
I'm the event that Woodrow
Wilson is the democratic nomin e
without half trying, and with it the
state officers along with the iegfs-
lature
! Washington will send an in
| structed delegation for Wilson.
Chas. G. Heifner, chairman of the
democratic state committee, is out
for Mr., Wilson, and SO is William
III. Dunphy, national committeeman.
In fact, big majority of the demo
cratic state committee are for Will |
