RESOLUTION

The following resolution has
been submitted to all oranges
and commercial bodies in the
state by c. c. Chapman of the
Oregon Voter.
WHEREAS the so-called Peo-
pies Land & Loan Law, if adopt
ed by popular vote in November,
would become part of the Con-
stitution of Oregon, and
WHEREAS, it would make all
farm-owners and home-owners
mere tenants of the state, pos
sessed OF empty titles and bur-
dened with the obligations of
paying each year the full rental
value of their homes and lands
into the public treasury, and
WHEREAS, by its provisions
for loaning 81, 500 cash without
interest for five years to anyone
who with his family has failed
to accumulate property of the
total value of $2,250, it pena-
Lies thrift and puts a premium
upon sh!ftlessness and extrava-
gance at taxpayers expense,
therefore be it,
RESOLVED, that we urge our
membership and all other intel
!igent citizens to give attention
10 the revolutionary proposals of
this radical measure, so It may
be voted down by so large a
majority that the promoters of
this single toX legislation may be
brought to realize the futility OF
their visionary but dangerous
schemes .at every general cleo
ton.

Fred Lockley of Portland was
a visitor at Toledo yesterday, Mr..
Lockley is here in the interest of
the proposed Eastern Oregon
State Normal school at Pendle-
ton. In speaking of the matter,
Mr.. Lockley said, THE voters
at the coming election in Novem-
Der will be called upon to decide
whether Eastern Oregon shall
have a State Normal to train
teachers for the schools of East
ern Oregon. The cost of main
tainance of this school will be
one twentyfifth of a mill or four
cents on each thousand dollars
of taxable property year.
Nowhere else in the state ar E,
teachers paid as high salaries as
in Eastern Oregon, yet in spite
of the high salaries, the teachers
are, to a very large extent, mex
Iperienced and unframed. When
you need the services of a ply
sician, a surgeon, a lawyer or a
plumber you try to secure the
services of a man who knows his
business; yet when school
boards employ teachers to train
and educate your children and
mine, fitness for the work of de-
veloping and training the char
acter of their charges is but lit
tie considered.
Pendleton has more than a
thousand pupils in her pubic
schools. Practically every edu-
Gator in the state favors the ns-
tablishment of a Normal school
in Eastern Oregon.

THE DEMOCRATS

President Wilson," says the
non-partisan press, "is entitled
to reelection because he kept
us out of war with Mexico.
President Wilson ordered the
bombardment of Vera Cruz,
which would have resulted in
war If Huerta had been strong
enough to fight us. President
Wilson ordered the invasion OF
Mexico, which would have caus-
ed war II Carranza had had the
men and the money with which
to fight us. Huerta is dead, but

pathetic Strike
OROER MUST Be ENDORSED
Meetings of Individual Unions Must
Be Held Before Men Are
Called OuI.

New York. Sept. 11.-A strike OF
stage employees, longshoremen, brew
cry workers, machinists, bartenders,
holders and printers in sympathy with
the unionzed carmen who quit their
places four days ago was decided up
on, at a meeting of the heads of their
unions last night, according to an an
nouncement by Hugh Frayne, state or
ganizer of the American federation of
labor. According to Frayne, approx
mately 100000 men and women are
enrolled in the unions which were rep
resented at the meeting last night
Before sympathetic strike
can be declared, however, the
union leaders explained, it would
be necessary for them to call mass
meetings of their respective unions
and put the proposition to a vote of
the members. The delegates at the
meeting last night assured William b.
Fitzgerald, organizer OF the carmen's
union, that their members were will
ing to fight to a finish, morally, physi'
cally and financially in the interest of
trade uniOnism."

MAINE C. O. p. is CONFIDENT
Nothing Is In Doubt Except the Size of
the Majority.

Augusta, Me-. Sept S.-Republicans
are making a whirlwind finish in their
state campaign. The last word Will be
said by Charles f. Hughes in Rock
land, Democratic city, Saturday
night. Hughes and Fairbanks are
both into the state today. The eve
of election finds the campaign at
fever heat. Nothing like 1t has been
seen in Maine, old time politicians
say, in 20 years In many respects
it recalls the Blaine-Cleyeland cam
paign of 1884. Republican leaders,
flushed with confidence, say nothing
is in doubt except the size of the Re
publican plurality.
With the candidate for president
and the candidate for vipe.president
both arousing party enthusiasm; there
is no danger OF a slump between now
and next Monday. On the contrary,
Republican leaders look forward to
days of uneXampled activity. They
say the presence OF Hughes and his
speeches assures a record breaking
Republican vote 1t is estimated the
vote this year will exceed by 10000
that cast i'll the state election two
years ago. A presidential year al
ways brings out full Republican
vote.
Party managers say the excess vote
will be almost wholly Republican
Frank J. Ham, Republican state
chairman, said the situation was en-
tirely to his satisfaction. There is
not a nook or corner in the state, he
said. which had not been reached by
the Republican speakers and their re
ception at the hands of the voters
| and been of character to indicate a
| splendid victory.

troll of Upper House of
Congress,

Arlington, Me-, Sept. IA rousing
vote at the state election in Maine to-
day is predicted. The day promises to
be fair, The weather is the one fac
tor that the politicians have not at
tempted to influence by argument and
fireworks, and the forecast was anXi-
ously awaited Last night there was
rejoicing in both the republican and
democratic camps, for it was expected
that the expression OF Names opin
ion on state and national policies
would be decisive and both
sides faced the issue with confidence.
After Sunday of comparative rest
and review, and during which the heat
CT battle cooled somewhat, the party
managers declared that they stood by
the figures proclaimed at the close of
the campaign Saturday night. The
republicans claim everything with
pluralities approximating $1,000. The
democrats make similar claim, ex-
cept that they set the pluralities at
5000 and admit that the outcome in
the third and fourth congressional dis
, tricts Is in doubt.
If an average is struck between the
rival claims, Maine, politically speak
! ing. may be said to be either party S
state. Three conclusions, however
are not disputed. Il GOV. Oakley c.
Curtis is reelected by the democrats
the result will be accepted generally
! as an endorsement OF the Wilson ad
minstration. If the democrats, who
now hold one OF the four seats in Con
/ gress, return Congressman Daniel J.
McGillicuddy and capture the second
seat. which they expect, il will be con
strued as showing that the first and
second districts stand strongly behind

is especially important as upon the
outcome may depend the control o

IN ACCIDENT ON
QUEBEC BRIDGE
Central Span Falls While Being
HOiSted Into Place
WORKMEN KILLED And DROWNED
About Ninety were Engaged on
Structure When Accident
Occurred.

Montreal Sept. 1.-THE central
span of the transcontinental bridge
nj Quebec fell this morning while be-
ing lifted into position. The accident
was accompanied by heavy loss of life,
but, as yet no accurate estimate of the
killed and drowned can be made.
About 80 men were at work on the
bridge when the span fell and con
siderable number of them can not be
accounted for.
The span which weighed 5000 tons
had been foated under the bridge and
was being lifted with specially con-
structed cranes and jacks when it fell
about 80 feet into the river
The bridge was being constructed to
shorten the distance between Halifax
and Vancouvre about 200 miles. 1t was
to be used by eight railroads and was
to cost in the vicinity of $17,OOO,OOO.
The bridge was 1899 feet long from
shore to shore and the central span
was GAO feet long.
