neither be so compact as to interfere

GUILTY-OF TNCITING THE

This is innocent enough in itself,
but the corporation has seen fit to
spread broadcast in this locality,
certain literature OF a nature design
ed to inflame the youth Of the dis
trict. Already groups of boys, no
older than ten to fourteen, may be
seen perusing the pictures in these in

are heated. They are wroth. The
pamphlet states that September II,
which is the first day Of school, is
also "clrcus day" in neighboring

FOR CAR SHORTAGE

Salem, Aug. 22.-In letter to the
public service commission today, Gen
eral Manager Scott of the Southern
Pacific declared that coast railroads
were not responsible for the freight
car shortage in the west. He denied
that there had been discrimination
against Oregon distributing points,
and asserted steps were being taken
to relieve the situation.
Scott said the shortage was due
to water shipping congestion in the
east, where many loaded cars are
held without labor to unload them.

Governor Hughes starts today on
his return to the east. His whole
'swing around the circle" was to be
10000 miles, and though he has al
ready covered that, the greater mag
nitude of the journey is considered
by republican leaders as well worth
while. The West has always been
the seat of freest thought Of the ma
ton. Here new ideas in government
and economy first break into the
maelstrom Of politics, and here it was
that an unreceptive nominee for pres
ident was placed upon the ballot. Mr..
Hughes undoubtedly appreciated the
significance OF this, and his numer-
Gus talks to the people Of the coast
have been series of soundings, to
ascertain the depth of public opinion
on various questions OF national in
terest. He has tried this point and
that one on various audiences along
the seaboard, always watching the re-
ception given.
From day to day he has touched
upon a point considered but a short
time ago as dead wood in political
circles. In the east, II at all, was
It considered Of value in politics. But
each day has seen new crowds OF
westerners cheer when Governor
Hughes calls upon the nation to sup
port economic principles in tariff leg
islation which will guarantee indus
trial prosperity after the bolster of
foreign warfare has been removed.
Public approval was marked last
night when Governor Hughes told
Los Angeles that he would carry out
impartial though substantial legis-
lation in this regard the same as he
carried out the progressive legisla-
tion which won him fame in the
commonwealth of New York. His
name as fearless fighter for what
he believes is right wins him the
confidence OF the west in the tariff
matter. No fear is felt that a pure
principle Of economic necessity in

Mr.. Hughes, will be prostituted to the
