tic animals. The powder has an acrid
taste that is Objectionable to most
animals, but rats will eat it readily.
Since red squill has no uniform toxic
standard, it is important to purchase
it from manufacturers who guarantee
its toxicity. Red squin can also be
used with cereals, ground meats, or
fruits and vegetables as bats. 1t is
important that sufficient number of
bats be distributed at one time to
provide an ample supply for all the
rats. Bats should be put around in
the evening SO they will be fresh when
the rats are feeding; stale bats are
unattractive to rodents; hence bats
put out should be picked up and des-
troyed the following morning.

OREGON THROWS
VOTE SPOTLIGHT
I ON DEMOCRATS
Four Candidates Vie for
Ten Delegates; Hoover
Is UnOppoSed.

PORTLAND, Ore, May ia
walkaway for the lone Republican
will be offset Friday by a merry
battle in Democratic ranks as
Oregon voters go to the polls to
express preference for party can
didateS in the State primary cleo
ton.
Herbert Hoover is the only Re-
publican seeking presidential honors
who is one the Oregon ballot. He
was practically assured of the
thirteen delegates as the only man
ner in which another name can now
get on the ballot is for voters to
write it in.
Four Democrats are fighting it
out fer the ten delegates who will
go to the national convention at
Houston OF these there are three
noteworthy candidates. The fourth
the Rev. Alfonzo Workman of Mis-
souri,, is receiving little conSidera-
ton.
Three Cornered Race
Governor Alfred =. smith OF New
York, appeared to be the favoritc
as the polls opened He is opposed
by Senator James A. Reed Of Mis-
souri, and Senator Thomas J. Walsh
of Montana, with the dry Democrats
backing the latter.
A split delegation among these
three was in prospect, although
Walsh's recent withdraw left the
situation muddled.
That Hoover would sweep the
State without opposition was con-
sidered a certainty by his support
ers which includes the Republican
organization.
Hoover, Native Son"
He also has much popular
strength and is classed as a
native son" because he was raised
at Newberg, a Quaker settlement in
the Willamette valley, and attended
school there and at Salem.
Democrats, however, Waged a
warm campaign with supporters of
Governor Smith, led by Judge Will
r. King, Democratic national COM
mitteeman, being opposed by Os-
valid West, former Governor anr
national committee elect, and
other dry champions of democracy.

time at his Office for weeks and is de-
scTibed by his friends as in low spirits.
His health has not been good, and the
expectation Of his followers Is that he
will take little If any part in the ma
tional election This is in sharp con-
traSt to the recent situation. when he
was expected 70 hold Chicago's vote.
A long train of circumstances have
combined to upset the dreams of Mayor
Thompson. The greatest setback came
IN the April primary when his faction
was overwhelmed Then came a vic
tory for the Chicago Tribune in its tax
payers suit TO recover 81 700 600 in city
funds alleged to have been diverted 10
political use in a previous Thompson
administration. In addition two libel
suits are pending as an outgrowth Of
the mayors attack on former School
Supt. William AcAndrew and on some
American historians.
Taxes Have Increased.
Recently the elevated lines. which
carry the bulk Of Chicago'S commuters.
raised their fares 20 per cent. with
little opposition from the city. Taxes
have mounted sharply, and now scam
Gal is being limited IN the expenditure
Of funds for street repairs. Streets in
many sections are almost impossible.
All OF these developments have add

bles. and on top CT them has come
the resignation OF the city controller.

penditures. because he is described as
being concerned over mounting ex-
penses. Other designations from the
mayors cabinet are limited. Then there
is political trouble in the activity of
the special grand jury returning indict-
ments against important cogs in the
Grove Thompson political machine.
Hope for Comeback.
These developments. coupled with
Mayor Thompson's reported bad health,
have led to persistent reports that he
would resign, and thus pass completely

His anointed. Whose OK have I taken:
Or whose ass have I taken? Or whom
have 1 defrauded? Whom have op-

received any bribe to blind mine eyes

And they said, Thou hast not defraud-

What an achievement this was for
Samuel, to be able at the close of his
career to face his fellowmen with such
a challenge and get back such an
answer. I should like to achieve such
a record. When / go from this world
I do not want to leave any charge OF
wrongdoing outstanding against my
name. I do not want any man to be
able to rise up and say to my friends,
That man wronged me-" I want to
leave this world on good terms with
my fellowmen. I want to leave a men,
ory that can be respected and honored,
a memory that will stand for all that
is good and true and noble. memory
that will be a benediction to those
among whom I have lived.
The saddest thing can think of is
to see a man come to the end of life'S
way and, as he looks back through the
years, be obliged to say, MY influence
has been mora harmful than helpful;
I have lived to no good purpose" The
grandest thing can think of is to see
a man come to his last days and, as he
looks back over his life. be able to say,
"I have never willfully wronged any,

/ have tried to make my life blessing
