SUPPOSE A REPUBLICAN PRESI-
DENT HAD TREATED A
GEORGIA WIFE THAT
WAY!

Dear Sir: am very much
interested in your writings on
Woodrow Wilson. He does not
deserve single vote in Georgia.
His neglect Of his first wife's grave
proves conclusively where his heart
is, and the time will come when he
will not be respected in Georgia.
If a Northern Republican had by
chance married Georgia lady, and
had become president, and had
under similar circumstances treated
his wife's memories, the mother and
grandmother of his children, as
Wilson has, every daily paper, every
weekly paper, every Georgia Demo-
crat, every Georgia Populist, and
every Georgia white Republican
would have cursed the air blue for
years to come.
For me, am proud that one
Georgia lady has adorned the White
House, and am truly sorry that her
end came when it did. For I be-
lieve had she lived Wilson would
have made better president. But
why lament. The future is ours, the
past belongs to the dead. So lay
on the lash, while it is yet day. You
raised blisters this week. Draw
blood next.
We Dorsey voters over here in
Troup are with you. If [ am cor
rectly informed Dorsey regrets your
efforts trying to prevent the Macon
convention from indorsing Wilson.
And right here I will say to Mr..
Dorsey, the minute he proves him.
self an migrate right then he is dead
politically. Dorsey can no more
stick to that old gang and amount to
anything than Joe Brown could.
Brown tried it and he died politi-
cally, and so will Dorsey.
We voters know who it is that
have been true. We know who has
fought our battles for 80 years un-
selfishly. We are keeping tab on
those who have and they are enjoy
ing our support. There never was
a better time for the right man to
ride an Independent horse, and
Dorsey was the man UP to the con-
vention, but it is a question now.
The voters of Georgia never have
and never will vote for Wilson. He
won't get one-third Of the required
votes in Georgia on November 7th,
yet the gang will yell the biggest
majority in its history.
Yours very truly,
]. B. DUNNE.

WHO MANGLED YOUR r. #. d.
SERVICE,

Dear Sir: The most bitterly
Matched man in the United States
today is ALBERT S. BURLESON,
POSTMASTER GENERAL OF
WOODY WILSON, and it is all on
account of the way he did the farm
ers about their II. f. ID. service by
disruption and curtailment.
Please stress the fact to them in
the next issue of the Jeffs. and
every farmer who reads it will vote
for Hughes. Please do this now and
we have Woodpile Wilson beat.
With best wishes for you and my
prayer for you in your glorious
work, am your friend

BUNTING The PARCEL POST

To large extent the effectiveness OF
the parcel post will be blunted in the
Northwest by action of jobhers, who
have entered into an agreement TO
charge 10 cents for wrapping and mail
ing each package they mail to their
customers under the parcel post rates.
The jobbers' agreement will tend to
stimulate express business. One might
logically draw the conclusion that
Northwestern jobbers own stock in ex-
press companies. We believe that the
decision of jobbing houses will raise a
protest from retailers and merchants
in all quarters.
A travelling salesman of the Blake,
McFall Company, a Portland paper
house, here this week, stated that his
company kept an account last year of
1000 parcel post packages and that
a loss was incurred in handling the
business in this manner. Let US sup
pose that the company handles as
many parcel post packages in the next
year. They will receive from their
customers the sum of 81, 500 for the
service. 1t seems to US that a profit
will be derived from the business.
If the new ruling of the jobbers is
conformed to, we may reasonably ex-
pect that charge by retailers for
wrapping the packages of their Gus
toners will follow.

LET Us RESTORE PUBLIC CONFIDENCE

Reports from travelling men, who re-
turn from trips over the state, indicate
an almost united Hughes sentiment
among the business men. As COM
merclal traveller for a paper house puts
it, "Those who expect to make any
profit in their business. or who expect
to save what they have, will vote for
Hughes"
The parlayzed condition of the lum-
ber and other industries, due to the
Underwood tariff. with the resultant
loss of employment among the working
men, have made business conditions de-
plorabIe and have resulted in heavy
failures among all classes Of business.
The activity in certain lines of bust
ness in the east due, entirely to war
conditions, has resulted in great pros
perity in those sections of the east
where located, but the Pacific coast is
still feeling the effects of Democratic
policies, and when the war ends the
same depression will exist in the east
if the Democrats are still in control.
A vote for Hughes will restore public
confidence and bring back that prosper
ity which can only exist under the pol
icies of the Republican party.

The DEMOCRATIC RALLY

The Democratic party in Hood River
county practically closed its campaign
Thursday evening with grand finale
love feast, in which Senator Chamber.
lain was the principal speaker. The
audience was composed largely of Re-
publicans, who came to hear arguments
why President Wilson should be re.
turned to the White House. or explana-
tions, if you please. of the condition OF
the country under Democratic rule. In
another column we print, as matter
of news, excerpts of his speech.
As a smooth politician. as an elo.
quent persuader among the masses, this
great spell-binder has no equal in Ore
gon. AS vote getter for George"
he has been very successful. As vote
getter for others he has not been SO
fortunate, and from expressions heard
after the meeting, we believe he made
few, if any, converts among Republican
voters. His arguments for the return
of President Wilson, when analyzed,
were not convincing. and his explana-
tions of the mistakes of the admins
tration were handled lightly with the
remark that mo amendments had ever
been suggested" He evidently does
not heed the criticisms of the Republi-
can press, or call them suggested
amendments, nor does he recognize the
amendments offered by minority Re-
publicans in Congress.
He admits that he does not know
whether the Adamson bill is a good
thing or not. He points with pride to
the Federal Reserve act, the Rural
Credits act, the Child Labor law, the
parcel post, the Shipping bill and the
Federal Road bill, but forgets to state
that they we're passed not only with
the help but with the almost united
support of the Republican party.

FRED W. WILSON
FOR CIRCUIT JUDGE

Fred W Wilson, Republican nominee
for circuit judge of this district, has
been a resident of what now comprises
Hood River and Wasco counties all his
life. For 20 years he has been in ac-
tive law practice at The Dalles, and
during that time has participated in
much of the important work that has
been before the courts of this district.
During four years of this time-l908 to
l9l2-Mr. Wilson was district attorney
for Hood River, Wasco and Crook
counties, and this is the only elective
Office that he has ever held and the
only one for which he was ever can
didate, except in the present instance
when he is the Republican nominee for
circuit judge, having had no opposition
in the Republican primaries last May.
During his incumbency of the district
attorneys office he prosecuted success
fully many important cases in Hood
River county, as well as In the other
counties of the district, among them
being a conviction in the only murder
case that has been tried in Hood River
county.
Mr.. Wilson desires every voter to
know that should he be elected to the
circuit judgeship next week he will ap-
proach the office with deepest realiza-
tion of its highest ideals and seek in
every proper manner to make them
practical. His warmest supporters are
those who know him best and include
the clients who have entrusted him
with their business. Mr.. Wilson prom.
ises that, if elected, this court shall be
an impartial tribunal wherein all liti-
gants may be assured that their stand.
ing shall be equal and open and even
handed justice alone shall prevail.
The court will be conducted with dis
patch, but net with such haste as will
prevent full opportunity for the pre-
sentation of cases and all questions
upon their merits.
Mr.. Wilson further states: "Here-
tofore 1t has not been the custom of
our circuit court in rendering opinions
in equity cases, to give the reasons for
decisions. believe that if we'll rea-
| soned decisions were handed down in
this class of cases, giving the reasons
and law supporting the same, many
cases now appealed to the supreme
court would not be appealed, thereby
saving litigants the cost of expensive
appeals. purpose to render such de.
cisions, giving the litigant the benefits
of the reasons for the same"
For many years Mr.. Wilson has
been interested in Hood River county
orchard land and plans, if elected, to
spend large portion of his time in
Hood River, and thus help facilitate
the conclusion of legal business.

VOTE NO

The true purport of the initiative
measure under which the people of
Oregon are permitted to vote direct on
legislation is often defeated. Support
ers of the system have argued and are
still arguing that the initiative makes
possible legislation representative of
the entire electorate.
This is not the case.
The ballot at every election is bur.
dened with innumerable bills. The Ii.
ties under which they parade before
the voter as he marks his ballot on
election day are in many cases mis-
leading. The pamphlet which the elec.
tor receives from the secretary of
state, the same containing arguments
for and aginst measures, reaches the
proportions of weighty volume. Its
very size and the mass of data, pro
and con, is such as to frighten the ordi-
nary voter. He lays it aside and never
reads it, and goes to the polls unin.
formed. The average voter may be
heard to say, 20 well, | will not worry
over these bills. | will just not vote
on them"
Yet you may be sure that every man
and woman who is in favor of a
measure is going to the polls and cast
his ballot in favor of it. The measure
may have been initiated for some per-
ncious means. At the coming election
exponents of single tax for the most
part will vote on the Full Land Tax
Rental bill. yes. Suppose a large
part of the voters, not having informed
themselves, are Indifferent and do not
vote at all. This single tax measure
may be adopted.
Let this be your rule, when you do
not understand an initiative measure.
vote no. You are then. at least elm
mating by the extent of your vote, the
possibility of having TO shoulder some
kind of legislation about which you are
totally ignorant.

The OLD BLUE LAW

More than so years ago a law was
passed that makes of Sunday literally
day of inactivity on the part of Ore
aon citizens. The old law has remained
on the statute books, a dead letter, for
all this time. However. last year, an
ultra-radical element sought to secure
the enforcement of the law. The mat
ter has been before the courts.
A bill has been initiated for the re-
peal of hte law, and we think it should
be supported. In saying this we do not
feel that we are taking a stand for the
desecration of Sunday. We would like
to see the pews of our churches filled
each Sunday, but men and women can
not be regulated into going to church.
Furthermore, under the old law one
cannot engage in the work of saving
his apple crop on Sunday. Under the
old Blue law the COX would have to
remain in the ditch" until the follow
ing Monday.
Vote 312 yes.

Joe Vogt seemed the goat of the

Mr.. Vogt's store.
Boys removed the concrete blocks
that top the four corner posts of a wal

the great weight. one of the blocks was
removed to such distance or was SO

HOOD RIVER LOSES
AT THE DALLE
(By Earl Weber,

The long waited for chance to get
revenge for the defeat handed Hood
River High by The Dslles High last
fall came Saturday when the locals
journeyed to the Cherry City. but the
revenge must wait yet another year.
However, the result was much more
gratifying than a year ago, and when
the final whistle blew, ending the fast
est and snappiest game it has been our
good fortune to witness for some time,
The Dalles was on the winning end of
a 12-0 score.
Individually the Hood River boys
shone forth brilliantly, but team work
was woefully lacking, while the upriver
like manner that made their offense
bad to combat and their defense wall
the Hood River backs could not pierce.
The whole of the first period was
PLAYED in The Dalles' territory and
neither team could make yardage.
Nickelsen's 8 drop kick from the IS yard
line fell short by inches and was the
nearest thing to score until the Sec
ond period, when Pashek. of The
Oalles, made several five and ten yard
gains on tackle swings and placed the
ball within stricking distance of the
goal, where The Dalles full.back took
Il over en- straight line buck.
The same tactics won for The Dalles
their second touchdown in the third
quarter.
1t was not until the last quarter that
Hood River again threatened, when
Bentley going to the back field reeled
off two end runs good for 10 and Is
yards and Blowers added another first
down through center. but the golden
opportunity went glimmering when
"Beans' attempting drop kick was
blocked and the game ended soon after
with the ball in the middle of the field.
Capt. Bentley and Wonder Abe were
Hood Rivers bright lights, while
Nickelsen was kicking in good form
until forced out of the game through
injuries, in the third quarter.
Pashek and Capt. Ganger were The
Dalles stars.
Quite a number of rooters, fair and
otherwise, accompanied the team on
the trip, and the Goldendale II and
coach were on the sidelines cleaning
what knowledge they could in prepara-
tion for games later in the season with
both The Dalles and Hood River teams.
