BRAY TALKS TO
0TTUMWA VOTERS
ELOQUENT GRlNNELL SPEAKER
MAKES CONVINCING REPURLl-
CAN ARGUMENT

Thomas J. Bray of Grinnell, one of
the sixth district political leaders, and
an able speaker, addressed big crowd
Mr.. Bray analysed the third party
situation completely, making a clear
and concise argument to support his
contention that there is no justification
whatever for any republican voter in
following Mr.. Roosevelt in bolt from
the republican party He paid trib-
ute to President Taft, Senator Kenyon,
M. A. McCord, candidate for congress,
and George w. Clarke and the other
candidates on the state ticket and de-
clared the honest and consistent thing
for all republicans to do is to support
the entire ticket. He reviewed the
conditions that existed the last time
the democratic party was given power
and asked the voter if he should again
take a chance. He ridiculed the plea
made by the democrats that they will
reduce the cost Of living by declaring
that they would probably do it, "but
after having reduced the cost of liy-
ing they would have reduced us to an
extent that we couldn't afford It," K.
R. Ramsell was chairman and intro
duced Mfr. Bray to the gathering.
"The proposition this year that every
voter must determine" said Mr.. Bray,
as business proposition. Leaving
aside the question of patriotism, cast
ing aside the question Of duty, the
voter must decide by his vote this
year what the economic policy OF the
government is to be during the next
administration, and the decision thus
made cannot be recalled or changed
for four years."
The Roosevelt Movement.
Mr.. Bray then discussed the various
issues in this campaign. He took up
the third party movement and made
an appeal for those who have felt in
clined to follow Roosevelt to stay in
the party and work out the needed re-
forms within the republican party,
which he showed had always been
responsive to the public will Touch
ing on the third party situation Mr..
Bray said:
MANY believe that Theodore Roose-
welt was cheated out Of the nomina-
ton last June and they say they will
support his candidacy on that grounds.
Let us 90 into this matter briefly.
If Theodore Roosevelt had had votes
enough to secure the nomination and
had been denied that nomination then
there would have been justification
for his candidacy. Mind you, am not
assailing Theodore Roosevelt. He is
a great man. But he would have been
greater man today if he had said:
4 am not out for nomination, but

fora cause, and if there is some man
upon whom this convention can unite,
| will give him my hearty support
But Mr.. Roosevelt did not take such a
course, AS his candidacy now indi.
Gates
Roosevelt did not have the votes in
the Chicago convention. If he did
have the votes, why did he file 2SS
contests. and why did he make con-
tests that were not brought in good
faith? On the national committee
which decided the Roosevelt contests
and made up the temporary roll of
the convention were eighteen men who
were hearty Roosevelt supporters.
These eighteen men composed one
third Of the committee and yet they
voted with the Taft supporters on the
committee in deciding more than two
thirds of the contests against Koose-
welt.
The Fraudulent Contests.
"Now, mark you, out of these 23S
contests, in 166 all of the committee,
including the friends Of COL Roose-
welt, voted against Roosevelt. More
over Col. Roosevelt in all his public
utterances has never claimed that he
was defrauded out Of more than u
votes in that convention. Take 70
from 23S and you have 1855, the num-
Der of contests in which the commit
tee voted unanimously for Taft. Col
Roosevelt says he was robbed of these
u votes, but want to call your at
tention to the further fact that Gov
Deneen, one of the seven governors
who brought Roosevelt out for the
presidency, and member of the
Roosevelt steering committee at the
convention, says that Col. Roosevelt
asked him to limit the resolution con-
corning the contests to "a, and that
is narrowing down to a small margin.
l say that if those 81 votes were act
ually stolen it didn't do any harm.
They would not have done Roosevelt
any good as they would not have given
him enough votes to win the nomi-
nation. MY proposition is this: If
to deprive him Of the nomirStion be-
cause it did not involve. a sufficient
number of votes, and therefore it does
the republican party
Steam Roller Days Past
Mr.. Bray recalled that Gov. Hadley
was not willing to subscribe to charges
of fraud and burglary. Gov. Deneen
did not find the Roosevelt defeat suffi-
cient cause to drive him from the
party. II say that no one has cause
to go out of the republican party and
support Col. Roosevelt when the ma
tional committee didn't do anything to
deprive him of the nomination" said
Mr.. Bray
The speaker added that it, was flu
tile to support Roosevelt in protest
against "steam roller" methods, be-
cause the 1912 steam roller was the
same roller used in 1908 with a diff
ferent pilot. 1T is net necessary q"
he said "to vote for Roosevelt to
prevent repetition of steam roller
because all parties and all
candidates are united in favor of a
preferential primary which will let
the people vote on presidential candi-
dates themselves, and believe one

A Talk for You

Possibly. you have given up hope of
being cured after treating with
several doctors. Chronic diseases
are deep rooted according to time Of
development. Because you haven't
been cured is no good reason why
you can't be cured. The longer a
chronic ailment continues the harder
it becomes to treat. 1 don't claim to
cure every disease, because 1 can't
do it. However, do say have cured
many hard cases Of what apparently
were incurable diseases. My IS years
of medical experience has been en-
tirely devoted to the treating Of
chronic diseases of every kind. Now
if you wish to call on me, I will tell
you candidly what can be done for
you. Never give up, but give me the
chance of at least examining your
disease and hear what l have to say.

The Tears of Our Fathers.

The Kansas City Star, having con-
Quoted an investigation, makes the
following report.
A generation ago the real scream in
cachination was Artemus Ward. Our
fathers were wont to read the WITH
cisms of this great humorist and laugh
till the tears ran down their cheeks.
AS an example of how funny Artemus
could be when he tried, take this eX-
tract from his letter on jefferson Da-
Wis, president of the confederacy, al
legged to have been written in Rich
mond.
Jeff Davis is not popular here. She
is regarded as a southern sympathizer
& yit I'm told he was kind to his par
ents. She ran away from 'em many
years ago and has never bin back.
This was showin' 'em a good deal of
consideration when we reflect what
his conduck has been. Her captur in
female apparel confooses me in re-
gard to his sex, & you see speak of
him as a her as frequent as otherwise
& / guess he feels so hisself."

THE IRRIGON PROJECT.

The decree of the federal court
calling for the sale of the Irrigon pro-
ject should be pleasing to the set
tiers on that project and to all who
are interested in the same. 1t means
that the long sleep will be broken
and the jack rabbits driven from the
streets of Irrigon.
1t is presumed the project will be
placed under the West Extension. If
such course is taken it will be assur-
ance that the project will be we'll de-
veloped and the high land also
brought under ditch.
If all goes well it will not be many
years until the great region in the
vicinity of Irrigon will be transformed
from a desert into very productive
farming region. The project is IA
borably located as is all the land in
western Umatilla county and in
northern Morrow. The altitude is
low, the temperature warm, the soil
is good, transportation facilities are
excellent-every natural requirement
is there excepting water and this can
be supplied.
The story that the Irrigon project
will be sold is good news for this Sec
ton of oregon. 1t is a bad thing to
have dead dog projects. They dis
courage people and tend to drive away
prospective settlers. The further de-
velopment and settlement of the r.
rigon country is something devoutly
to be wished. 1t is also greatly to
be hoped that when the land is ready
for settlement it will be offered to
settlers at terms within their reach
and that half or two thirds the land
will not be tied up for years to come
by spectators.

WHERE THE BLAME RESTS.

Louis w. Hill complains that Ore
gon is not getting enough box car
immigrants, or in other words men
who come west with their household
goods ready to locate on farms and
become actual settlers. Too many
present day immigrants come in Pull
man cars and often they do not stay.
The criticism is we'll made and it
is easy to fix the blame 1t is be-
cause those who have been colonizing
lands in Oregon have been selling
their lands for the highest prices OBJ
tainable. They have been selling
them to spectators in the east who
do not live upon them. Many such
purchasers never expect to live upon
the land and this fact is well known
to the land sellers.
If Mr.. Louis Hill will profit by his
own advice he will conduct his great
colonization company differently and
will induce his friend Bill Hanley to
follow him with a new program.
Those men should offer their land
for sale at prices the land is really
worth-not what the land will be
worth ten years from now and not
for the highest prices smooth sales
men can secure.
Our present situation comes not
from any fault of the box car immi-
grant nor from anything wrong on
the part of the Pullman car settler
The blame rests entirely with our
colonization companies who persist in
running their business with a view to
making the largest profits possible
The East Oregonian is curious to
know how the Hill and Hanley lands
will be disposed Of.
