duty of the Governor to stand between

That's what the so-called water Front bills, Num-

life, public and private, bears that out
to the fullest possible degree. And !
will always be found on that side.
Primary Law Supported.
"The direct primary law has my full
est sympathy and support. It has pass
ed through its experimental stage and
became a successful established fact.
The direct primary law marks a big
forward step in constructive legisla-
ton and there is no stronger evidence
OF its triumph in Oregon than is to be
seen in the fact that the seven Repub-
lican candidates who contested with
me for the Republican nomination for
Governor at the direct primary cleo
tion are now united in supporting me
actively as the successful candidate.
81 hitherto have indicated my full
est sympathy with the constructive
measures placed upon the statute
books by the people and / construe It
TO be the unalterable duty OF the Gov
ernor to uphold and defend these laws.
I am particularly opposed to use of
the emergency clause for any pur-
pose other than that intended by the
constitution. and never would I. as
Governor, permit use of the 'emerg-
ency clause to defeat the initiative
and referendum.

Needs oi Oregon known.

In this connection | believe | ap-
preciate and understand fully the
needs of Oregon. the richest OF states
In natural resources, During the i3
years OF my residence in Oregon there
Is no part of Oregon whose resources.

thoroughly in touch with, For i6 years,
as member OF the Agricultural Col
lege faculty, practical and scientific
agriculture have occupied consider

The building OF good roads is an

must not be lost sight Of II is un-
necessary to dwell upon the value and
Importance of good roads in the de-
yelopment of Oregon The working out
of a network of good roads will add
To the welfare and prosperity not only
of the farmer, but OF every one of us,
since the prosperity OF the farmer is
reflected 10 the state at large.
The Ontario Argus. (Ontario, Or.) 1???-1947, 1914-10-15
Construction Cost II Factor.

"of equal importance is the cost of
constructing these roads, cost which
may grow out OF proportion TO the
value OF a specified road. There must
be an eQuable method of placing the
cost of good roads, and above all there
must be insisted upon a system OF
highway construction which will give
a dollars worth of road for every dol
lar expended.
"On the subject of law-enforcement,
and as to my attitude ON the laws now
existing and which may exist, any man
who aspires TO represent the people
honestly as their Governor can have
bgI one view. Law enforcement is a
fundamental duty, one which must be

said yesterday that all teachers and
pupils should bear in mind the fact
That the numerous contests are To

Miss darlington also stressed the fact
that those who come should bring
well filled baskets. There will be a
scarcity OF food On the grounds if
many come depending on the others TO
furnish tho picnic dinner for them
and this will, of course. be one OF the
most delightful parts OF the day. 1t
Is forcgone conclusion that there

OF fine hrose flesh and these people
are evincing much interest over the
announcement that there is possi-
bility OF this county getting in on the
six club horse show 1t is said that
the other cities of the circuit are per-
fectly willing TO admit Anderson and
will give her warm welcome If she
should see fit to make application .
That this city could make Il splendid
showing, with the support that would
come from the country, cannot be de-
MED and it is hoped that the effort,
heretofore amounting To nothing but
talk, may tahe concrete form! and :ha:
same concerted action will be put
forth to get Anderson into the show
II is said that Henry T. Mills, the sec
retary, will come to Anderson within
the next few days and confer with the
local people and if Anderson folk want
TO get into the horse show this will
be their first, last, and only chance.
