What 20 They Mean

Why did the representatives
of the churches of st. Johns en-
ter into politics TO the extent of
placing full city ticket in the
field for the coming city election
on April 9th? They state, ITO
secure a clean city, morally"
They would, apparently. have
you believe that such a course is
absolutely necessary in order to
secure such a city, and from
their point of view absolutely
necessary so to do. Is it be-
cause a clean city morally to
them is equivalent in part to no
open places of amusement or en-
tertainment on Sunday, no Sun.
day ball games. and no saloons
after the expiration of the pres
ent license period. irrespective
of whether the state votes dry
or not in the Fall elections? III

tition in part of past unproht-

The American love of fair play
will condemn the attempt to de-
ceive the voter at the next pri-
mary election by the introduc-
tion of one Thos. Kay as a can
didate for the Republican nomi-
nation for State Treasurer, if, as
is believed, such deception is be-
ing attempted. The present in
cumbent, Mr.. Thos. B. Kay, is
Just the sort of a business man,
successful in his own affairs,
that the state needs to care for
it's funds. The State Treasurer,
besides having the state funds in
charge, is a member of a number
of boards, and in the perform
ance of his duties as such mem
ber, there is needed ripe busi-
ness experience. There is no
indication that the ex-detective,
Thos. Kay, has any of the need
ed qualities for such an import
ant office. Fortunately the vot-
ers of this state are too intelli-
gent to be fooled by the intro
duction of Thos. Kay into the
fight. Few, if any, believe for
a moment that the former detec-
tive is in the field at his own
suggestion. and with his own
means. Whoever is at the bot
tom of the scheme, it will not
injure the present incumbent of
the office. Those who heard Mr..
Thos. B. Kay speak at the late
gathering of candidates at the
public library in Portland were
very much impressed with the
character of the man and with
his forceful remarks. In our
Judgment. the state of Oregon
needs just such a man as the
present incumbent TO handle its
financial affairs. and the Repub-
lican voters will do well at the
next primary TO guard against
the confusion caused by the sim
ilarity of the names of Thos. b.
and Thos. Kay.
