f CIRCULATION WKDNKNDAY 2.&02 oCplea VOL. XIV. FINAL EDITION. TVIB WKATIIKR ??lfPtmary And other measures of "reform had their Punt cordial welcome here. So Oregon may be regarded as a good place in which to test out whether Senator. LaFolleltc is en- , titled to the label "progressive" in the viewpoint of the voter. First of all it should be re called that LaFollette was a ciooe second here to Roose velt in the primary days of 1912. But it cannot be said that the same type of Repub licans who fought for Roose velt then arc today support ing LaFollette. In the contest between Presi dent Cool Idee and Hiram Johnson tfcll year the ? voters ? of ? Oregon recorded their preference for Mr. Coolidge by three to one. Nothing has happened since the primaries to make ho large a tjody of vot ers turn from the President . The only question here lswhether the dLiaeontcntcd vote T>as grown. Undoubtedly there Is sonic dis satisfaction here over the Presi dent's unwillingness to come out flatly for the McNary-Haugen bill laat spring and there are farmers who still feel aggrieved because the Federal Government Institut ed no relief measures to boost the price of certain farm prod ucts. but this disaffection is not so widespread as to endanger the chances of Republican success. The LaFollette vote In Oregon will be large. It may even ex ceed the Davis vote. But it Is not coming from the so-called in dependent or progressive voters. It Is coming from the people with a grievance, the people who vote against particular candidates rather tbsn for others. .There are groups, of course, who will vote for LaFollette because of his rad ical views, groups who will sup port him for bis friendliness to the railway employes, asid groups, of Germans who think the Wis consin Senator stood by them In the period of alleged hysteria over the war. Bat (tie Independ ent voter who considers himself hardly a partisan will for# the most part stick to the two major parties, and the vast number who will vote for Davis or Coolldge would never admit that the latter are not progressive. There are no local Issues in thin state to confuse the national is sues. It's a straight out Presldentlsl eontest. The regular Republicans appear to be well financed and their organisation Is beginning to function. The Democrata are mak ing poTTs a riff C*irvgMrir irnd-ttTTT deny that any , considerable num ber of their voteri are going to LftFollette. But the evidence would appear to indicate the La Follette movement will draw a large percentage from the Demo cratic rote. The Republican vote Is so hesvy, however, that the third party would havfc to draw almost 40 per cent of the vote from the Republicans before it would be a serious contender for the electoral vote. Oregon Is not a radical stste but It Is a rock ribbed Republi can stronghold. It stood in the Republican column In 1*16 when most of the ststes West of the Mississippi snd even neighbors like Washington. Montana and California voted for Wilson ss against Hughes. In 1?20 Oregon did not run up anything extra ordinary In totals for Harding but gave him s big majority. While many things may happen between now and election dav. It would appear that Davis will from now on recover some of the Dem oeratlc votes which have been slattd to go to LaFollette and that President Coolldge will be the beaeflclsry thereof. On pres Ct Indications the President msy expected to carry Oregon by a plurality of at least ten to fifteen thouasnd. This la Itself Is sn In dication that the raee Is close, for If the contest were between Cool ldge and Davis aleas one would f*#l reasons h| y sure of at lesit 30.000 for Coolldgs.
