Well" said Mr.. Bluski, "Galicia
must become. of course, a part of
Poland, for it is essentially Polish,
and so, possibly, must the territory
known today as White Russia. As
far as the provinces further north
are concerned we think the best
means of solving the frontier ques-
tions forr those regions would be for
the Lithuanians and Esthonians to
join a Polish federation, and we
would give them all the rights over
their respective provinces. We think
they will be agreeable to such a prop

what had made Paderewski so popu-

During the war there were only a

tell of the plight of the Poles, but
among those few were Paderewslti.

SENATOR "A. M. LAFOLLFTT
1.-THE MAN OF THE PEOPLE,

gon who desire proper legislation, than
Senator Lah'ollett. Patriotic end cour-
ageous he did his duty by the people.
True, manly courage cannot exist
without honor and integrity. Those
traits Senator I4aFollett possesses in a
remarkable degree. Any person can go
with the current, but to stand firm
ly by ones convictions in the interest
Of the taxpayers and vote for propo-
sition that one deems right, is difficult
to do. Most men lack the Spartan cour-
age to stand up and be counted alone
in favor of a measure they consider
right when the ercwd is against it.
Rugged and strong Of character, hon.
est in the conception of his duties, Sen
ator LaFollett is type Of man that is
uncommon in these trying times of
duplicity and double dealing.
He is one of the chivalrcus charac.
ters that has the firmness to advocate
what is right because it is just rather
than for any personal interest. Big
hearted and faithful to the cause of
the taxpayers, Senator LaFollett has
made q name for himself in which his
relatives and friends should take
special pride. He despises cant and hy.
pocrisy. An enemy to falsehood and de
ceit, he could not help properly repre-.
senting the people of Marion county.
He is a plain, blunt, and fearless per-
sonage. He is born fighter for the
overburdened taxpayers and the pub.
lie in general. Those who thoroughly
know his honesty Of purpose, admire
his grand qualities of heart and mind.
The people of Marion county are sin.
gularly fortunate in having selected
as one of their representatives man
of his sterling character.
When the smoke Of battle Of the
thirtieth session of the legislative as
sembly of Oregon shall have cleared
away, the name of Senator LaFollett
will appear pre-eminently before the
public as one of the best legislators
it. His honesty and integ,
rity will stand out as beacon light
for the encouragement and as an ex-
ample for the future members of the
Legislature to follow and emulate. 1t
can be truly said, Senator LaFollett is
