Wilson he will be beaten. But
will not the very evidence of
such affluence on the part of

pronounced than ever for Will

Could there be anything
more arrogant or ridiculous

a VULGAR LINE OF ACTION

~ HERE is abounding evil
VI dence that there is much
money back of the
Hughes campaign. There is
so much coin they don't know
what to do with it and so waste
a lot in efforts that hurt rath-
er than help their cause.
But it is not surprising that
Wall street is willing to finance
golden specials and other cam
paign stunts against Wilson,
as many as can be devised.
Wall street embodies the
ship combine for the curbing
of which the president enacted
our merchant marine law. The
ship trust alone could afford
30 finance the Hughes cam
paign. 1t is no doubt doing its
part.
Wall street includes the par
ties having great concessions
in Mexico. These men in the
past five years have been stop
ping at nothing to gain their
end. They know where some
II the Hughes campaign money
comes from.
Wall street includes the rail
road owners who wanted to
force a strike upon the coun-
try and whom the president
thwarted with the eight hour
law. The heir to the Hartman
estate is one Of the sponsors
for the Golden Special.
Wall street includes the
munition makers who have
more than once showed chag-
rin over President Wilson's
success in keeping the country
at peace and who abhor the
idea Of a government armor
plate plant provided for by
this administration. 1t is easy

PRESIDENT ACKERMAN'S
SUPPORT

N his address before the
Portland Ad Club yester-
day President Ackerman
of the Monmouth Normal
school struck the key to the
whole normal situation when
he said that no normal school
should be established in a town
where there are less than 1000
pupils, so as to have sufficient
available for practice training
work.
Mr.. Alderman knows this
tact from first hand expert
ence at Monmouth. His school
there is dwarfed and hamper.
ed by the fact the town of
Monmouth has but $50 grade
pupils. Consequently the Mon
mouth normal school cannot
possibly give students the prac-
tlce work called for by modern
requirements.
The same situation exactly
obtains at Weston or would OBJ
tain were the school there to be
revived. Last year the average
grade school attendance at
Weston was 125 pupils
where a normal school should
have not less than 1000 avail
able, according to President
/ Ackerman.
President Ackerman's sup
| port of the measure for an eat
ern Oregon normal school
should carry great weight with
voters. His support is based
upon the straight merits of the
bill. He has no favoritism
for Pendleton. His own school
has nothing to gain from the
adoption of the eastern Ore
gon measure. A Pendleton
normal will in a way rival the
Monmouth normal. Yet the
situation is so pronounced and
the need of Snother school 50
clear that President Alderman
is working actively for the
measure on the ballot. So is
Superintendent Churchill, q
Rakerite, and virtually every
school man in the state.

ligent guidance on this subject
