On Education
BY wILLnM HANLsY.

II must have been some one who
wants the Senatorial job TO 90
where II will do the most good To
the incumbent and his friends who
said my education was too short
10 get me anywhere in Washing
ton. Whoever II was, II reminds
me of couple OF graduates from
an Eastern college whose fathers
sent them To me for some West
ern experience, l told the fore
man TO put them on the pay
roll, give them something soft to
do and keep the other boys from
riding them too hard. In few
days he sent them 10 build fence
around some hayStackS. About q
week later we were riding by those.
stacks and the foreman got off to
examine the fence. He put his
foot against one of the posts and
pushed the whole thing over. His
first comment will not bear publ
cation, but, after he was relieved
of il, he said with a kind of hope
less despair: II couldn't expect
anything belter-the poor fools,
they're educated" So, II depends
on the meant point.
Everybody knows that my Ian
guage has never been manicured;
but ! can put over an idea with Ii
and that's what a man wants, or
lpomdn either, and | don't care for
the other.
But want to add this about my
not getting somewhere: My trou.
Bile, particularly in Eastern cities. |
has always been To keep from get
ting somewhere too much. A few
years ago all the Western COVER
norS went on an excursion East |
and took me along and none of |
them got anywhere that | didn't.
In fact. | think they overworked |
me, when il came TO answering
questions about conditions in the
great Northwest and the hopes and
needs of the people out here. They
seemed To consider that my long
suit and being men and not near
men, they were not shocked at my
delivery of goods. If the things
| noted down i'm my platform are
what you want, climb on my
wagon before the seats are all
gone, and leave il to me to get
there with them. Big men are not

lhey are on education, for | don't

Too Many Consumers Now
In the Cities
TOO few PRODUCERS
get MORE PEOPLE ON THE
SOIL" is THE SLOGAN OF THE
CANDIDATE FOR UNITED
STATES SENATOR.
BY CLARKE LETTER,
Manager Hanley Campaign.

ave talk of the high cost of
living, but the root of the matter
is too many consumers In cities
and not enough producers on The
soil" says William Hanley, candi-
date for United States Senator.
Nothing more trile was ever
uttered.
Only a man with vision, such
as Mr.. Hanley has, could put into
so few words the real crux OF the
present-day situation.
This declaration Is of special
force in Oregon.
Nowhere does IL apply with
greater force; we have the natural
advantages necessary TO the max
ing of truly great state, but thus
far we have been unable 10 bring
To- our assistance those elements
without which progress Is stifled.
Conditions are more or less
crude; we are virtually the last
frontier and not yet have we been
able TO bring 10 bear sufficient In
fluence at Washington 10 produce
results which will, when had, en-
able us as q state 10 forge TO the
forefront, as we should do.
Development OF our natural re-
sources For the good of all the
people; proper regulatory leglsla-
lion and fair treatment OF capital
are planks of the greatest import
in the Hanley platform.
Larger payrolls In the cities,
combined with modern develop
ment of the soil, the water power
possibilities and the other great
gifts bestowed upon Oregon are
features advocated by him which
are fraught with the greatest posi-
bilitieS TO our people. The Hanley
program Is q big one, but the man
himself Is big In mind and spirit,
fitting In Splendidly with the big
Western ideas of liberty. industry
and pursuit Of real happiness.
Politicians may fire broadsideS
Into the Congressional Record on
how 10 farm or how 10 wreSt
living from the virgin soil, but
those who have represented Ore
gon In the national legislative as
scmblieS would scarcely know
plow should they see one; conse
quently, they are ignorant of our
real needs.
While Mr.. Hanley Is able TO ex.
press himself clearly and en-
phaiically on any important sub
jcct, he makes no pretensions TO
being "spell-binder." AS a
United States Senator, however,
trust him 10 make his influence
felt for his state In the right way
Not flowery language, but results
Is the crying need OF the hour for
Oregon.
WITH MIR. HANLEY IN THE
UNITED STATES SENATE, ORE
CON WOULD GET RESULTS OF
THE RIGHT KIND.

GO TO ROSEBURG
AND SEE WRECK
DRYS HAVE MADE
Bank Deposits Fall OF Half Mil
lion Dollars in Dry Town
ASSESSMENTS MUCH HIGHER
Real Estate Offered for Sale atLess
Than Valuation But No Bidders

The Committee Of One Hundred
says:
eff you want to find out what
dry Oregon will do for Oregon, go
to Roseburg and see what dry
Roseburg has accomplished" "
Here's what it has done.
II has cut down the bank deposits
by over S500,000, in spite OF the
fact that there are now four banks
to the two in existence when Rose
burg had licensed saloons, and that
the population has increased in pro-
portion to the settling up OF South
ern Oregon by new settlers and Inn
migration.
When Roseburg had licensed sa-
looms the tax levy, on one-third OF
the valuation was two mills. Since
Roseburg has gone dry the tax levy
has varied from eight to ten mills
on full valuation; and In addition
occupation taxes have been steadily
increased.
The Committee OF One Hundred
boasts that dry Roseburg has erected
Sll5,000 hotel. The hotel was
erected in 1913, stood idle and ten
antless for four months, and was
rescued from the bankruptcy court
BY liberal business men Of the city,
among whom we're Z. l.. Parrot, c.
w. Parks, Joseph Mieelli, A. N. Or
colt and Henry Hart, all Of whom
are radically opposed to a dry town.
The Committee OF One Hundred
also boasts OF the armory as an
achievement. The armory was built
b. state, county and city funds COM
bined, and Is not yet completed.
Over 40 leading business men
have signed a petition calling for a
local option election In Roseburg this
year, and such an election will be
held.
Many empty store buildings are TO
be found on the leading business
streets-a condition that never ex.
listed when Roseburg had licensed
saloons. Scores Of dwelling houses
are vacant for the first time In the
history OF the city.
John Hunter, leading contractor
and formerly supporter Of the drys,
Is now advertising In Roseburg pa.
pers:
Business block for sale
for $500 less than present as
sessed valuation.
Another property owner has Of
iered four parcels OF inside prop
erty for sale at less than tho as
sessed valuation, and has not even
received a tender.
One OF the leaders OF the dry
forces In Roseburg is q man who as
former agent Of the Albany brew

day Is the owner OF drug store.

BILL HANLEy FOR OREGON.
"what does he reprosent9"

"what does he representa- =
That Is a question often asked o.
this or that public official.
The general public should be In
tereSted In knowing whether their
public servants, whether high or
low. are representing the people or
special interests"
William Hanley as United States
Senator would represent the people
of Oregon and NO SPECIAL IN
TEREST.
This is not an assertion made to
get votes, but is based on the fact
that Mr.. Hanley is of the people
and he has always worked for
the people and probably has done
more to help the state as a private
citizen than most public officials
Having been found always fight
private citizen, helping TO upbuild
concern. II may be safely figured
that as United States Senator he
would not change his course, but
that he would, because of the great

battling for those things which
Oregon needs and must have in
order TO take her place among the
states of the Union, but which she
has never received at the hands of
her public servants In the national
Senate.
A man will not change in a
night. especially the type of man
like MIR. Hanley, but win pursue
safe and dependable course as
public servant, just as he has done
in his own business, of which he
has made a noteworthy success.
