Oregon tlly Public School Notes. Oulv two csHes of tardiness last month with a total enrollment of six hundred and seven. The uiHrintendent'a report, which appears elsewhere In this issue, shows a gain ol three er cent in attendance lor tho past month when compared with the attendance for the corresponding month of 181)7. This gain is without doubt due to filters, sterilisers, and the gymnasium The first term will end on February 4th . New pupils for the llrst primary departments Bhould enteron February 7th as no special arrangements can be made for the instruction of those that enter after this date. Mr. I'likiue. of the U. 8. weather hureuii. will address the members of the high school department s on some after noon of this month in thoir rooms at the Rarclav school. The lecture will be free to tho nunila and to such of the patrons and friends of the school as may be able to attend. In order that parents and other inter ested persons may have an opportunity to ifain some idea ol the work that Is now being done by the pupils in each department of our bcIiooIh, an exhibit of the written work of each month will be kept in the postodlce building for as long a time aa the interest taken by parents In examining and comparing work sub mitted each month may justify. The members of the high school have organized a literary society styled The Barclay High School Club, which ha its regular meetings at the Barclay school at 2:30 p.m. on the Bret and the third Fridav of each school month.

POPULIST PERFIDY U'Ken, You hi; and Jlounie Enter Into a Conspiracy. Substantial Details Regarding Ihe Let; Islutlre Fluscoof 1807 W.'io Is Responsible. A meeting of the opiilint county cen tral committee, of which W. H. U'Ken i chairmsn, was held In Tofie's hall, this city, last Saturday beginning al 2 o'clock. At a previous meeting of the committee J, 1). Kteve.is preferred charges against John C. Young, chair man ol the populist state central com mittee and W. 8. U'Ken secretary of said committee to the enect that these two had connived with Joseph Simon and II. W. Corbett to prevent the organ ization of the legislature and the defeat of John H. Mitchell for United Biatei senator. The committee of which U'Ken is the bead and which is composed of his friends refused to hear the charge proponed by Hlevens at that meeting but summoned him to appear at the meet ing helil last .Saturday and furnish proof to substantiate, bis charges, which lie agreed to do and which he did do to the saiixfaction of all reasonable and un prejudiced men. At the proper time last Saturday Hlevens appeared before the committee at a p .blic meeting in Pope's hall and presented his charges, and to show bow he came into posession of the letters which had passed from Young to U'Ken he called Miss Florence 0',so, of Mil waukee, to Ihe rostrum to make a state ment, in whfch she stated that U'Ken had some years ago come to the home of her stepfather, Mr. Set h Lewelling in Milwaukee and was then, y far as she knew, homeless, sick and penniless, and in some possible way gained the good graces of Mr. Lewelliog who after wards made him a partner in the busi ness and at the tatter's death became manager of the estate. The indebted ness ol the estate at that time was l"KXX) but at the precent time the debt had in creased until it was flM.OfiO. That during the tine U'Ken managed the business of the estate he kept his papers in a certain desk that was also ued by the family for the same purpose. One day Miss Olsen missed a deed lo certain property and in searching for it ran across these letters written by Chairman Young to U'Keo. She deemed it an act of patriotism that all honest re formers of the state should know how they were being deceived by those with whom they had enlrosted their affairs, and aim therefore gave the correspond ence to Mr. Stevens that they might be made public. At this point Stevens took the stand and read the proofs which he had prom ised to produce, and commented upon them at length, the first letter read be ing as follows, Young using the letter M for Mitchell. K for Kruse and Old Sol for Hon. Sol Hirsch : "Baker City, Or , Dec. 21. I8flfl. "Fiiend U'Ken: Old Sol. just before I got on to the 'buss Saturday night, was joking me about Bourne. I have no doubt that Sol, McBride, and Mitchell are all fighting him. They do not know but they shrewdly guess that the pops are being lined up against M. Indeed I think K. and possibly our Jacksou county man, is reporting. Iu any event to minimize the responsibility for calling the pops to line up their legislative members, so far as you as a member may be concerned, your hand should be as little seen in it aa possible. Hence I telegraphed you from Pendlotou yester day morning to hold circular letter until I could write you. It seems to me now that the work should be so managed that it would appear spontaneous and not Instigated, We must not overlook the fact that Sol's side of the house is power ful on account of the patronage it will have to dispose to the faithful, and that they may not only defeat Bourne but defeat everything else we want. "I think, therefore, a letter direced to some discreet pop, (other than the chair man, in each county that has elected legislators) instigating him to write his county chairman to call a meeting of the county central committee to line up such members to their duty, would be the better way . If your hand and my hand appear in this matter it may impair our ellkiency later on in the game. In any event impress those to whom such letters are addressed that their contents must be regarded as absolutely confidential and strictly private. You and I must be veiled in absolute secrecy. I think that Nelson should write the letter, and that neither your name or mine should appear in it. "I say this because I feel from what Sol said that someone is doing the spy act and that it is one of our men. I be lieve Bourne can be made to tie ud with Joe, aud that he will do It to defeat Mitchell and for legislative purposes. Sol is now Bure Jonathan has out his stilletto for Mitchell and that he will go with Joe. I think so too, but I am not sure and I am afraid Joe has not snflicient 'pull' to beat Sol's patronage game. If he has not, there we will all fall down, and our open fight on Mitchell now will result In Bourne's sure defeat. I do not believe that any of our men, except per haps K., will bolt the unite rule. I go to Walla Walla Tuesday ; thence to Spo kane. "Old Sol was very much inclined to take his axe out for Bourne. He was deeply in earnest, so much so that I sm sure he thinks Mitchell's fate rests in our hands; hence the necessity of mak ing the wisest use possible of our power, and not to give our hand away until we play it. I believe you will understand the importance of noUhowing our hand through a letter that might get out. If in Clackamas county you can get some outside party to start the work on you an J your committee, then K. cannot dis cover your band in it and report, nor by indirection trace it up to Bourne for Sol'a benefit. King will move on Yoakum without any 'intervention' as a precau tionary measure Yours truly, Signed "Joim C. Youno." The circular letter referred to above which had been stopped by telegraph from Pendleton was for the purpose of lining up the populist members in com pliance with the compact with Joe and is as follows: Okxoon Citv, Or.. Dec. 21, 18'J6. "Dear Sir and Brother: The county central committee is hereby called to meet at Justice Schuebel' office on Sat urday, January 2, 1897, at 11 o'clock a. m. (sharp) to decide on what course our members of the legislature should pursue as to the re-eiection of Senator Mitchell or any other republican, and such other business as may come before the meeting. Your presence is of the highest importance and we truet you can be present. Fraternal I v yours Signed "W. 8. U'Ken, Chairman. "Elmkb Dixon, Secretary." But a document which shows even more the corrupt and degrading influ ences which were at work last January and February, is an affidavit by Mrs. Lewelling. She is an intelligent woman of character and has the unbounded res pect of the people of Milwaukee. There are none who know her who would.ques tion her assertions. She said in her sworn statement that U'Ken came to her house from Portland at one time during the session of the leg islature and exhibited a roll of bills, which he declaied was a part of "his share of the Salem business." He took three $10 bills from the roll to pay a debt which he owed her. It is not known how much money U'Ken secured, but be admitted "bor rowing" $S0 during the sesciun. Mrs. Lewelling is of the impression that be had at that time much more than that amount. Where did U'Ken, the gentleman who has poied as the holiest of the holy in politics, the most virtuous of- the good, get his roll? Did he find it? Had some thoughtful friend made him a Christmas present in Wi? He is not a wealthy mm. In fact, be tells everyone who will listen, of his pov erty. The only money that he earned at that time was what came out ol the Lewelling estate. And he had secured no rolls of bills from it. Or was it that U'Ken was bought and paid for by II. W. CjrbetiT According to Mrs. Lewelling, be got it out of the "Salem business." Does not the "Salem business" mean the bold up of the legislature in the in terest of H. W. Corbett? Here is Mrs. Lewelling's affidavit: "Milwadkke. Or., Nov. 1, 1897. "I, Sophronia V. Lewelling, residing at Milwaukee, Clackamas county, Ore gon, depose and say: That I am per sonally acquainted with W. 8. U'Ren, member of the legislature from Clacka mas county ; that said U'Ren has for several years lived on the premises of deponent, and was a partner in business with my late husband. I further depose and say that at different times during the session of the legislature of 1897, 1 held conversation with said U'Ren rela tive to matters pertaining to said legisla tive session, and that in one or more of said conversations Baid U'Ren stated lo me that H. W. Corbett, of Portland, Or., was furnishing the money to pay the ex penses of the members of said legislature who were refusing to assist in the organ ization of said legislature. He, U'Ren, further told me that H. W. Corbett would probably be the next United States senator, because the house would not or ganize, and that Governor Lord would then appoint Corbett, as the said Corbett and 'Joe' (meaning Simon) 'owned' him (Lord;. I further depose and say : That during the time that said legislature was attempting to organize, the said U'Ren on one occasion came to my bouse from Portland, (as he stated) and showed me a large roll of bills (money) remarking that he had 'drawn on his share of the Salem business.' He took from the roll three 10-dollar notes and gave them to me. This was in settlement of a debt for money I had previously loaned him. I farther deiioseand say that another inter view at a time later than the one above mmitioned, the said U'Ren said to me that he was afraid the members might be compelled to 'go in' ind organize, in which event the First National bank people, (meaning the First National bank of Portland) had $12,000 ready to send the said members out of the country. I said to U'Ren 'I suppose you will go to Denver (his former home.) He replied, 'No I will go to Mexico, out of the Unites States altogether, or I may have to go to the penitentiary.' I make tho above statement in the hope that it may bene fit the people who are being betrayed by one of their trusted leaders. Signed "SOPHBONIA V LbwBLLINO." "Pobtland, Or., Nov. 1, 1897.

It seems to me that Mr. Bryan ia taking time by the forelock. Some populist ought to ask Mr. B. why he treated the nomination of the populist national convention with silent contempt, and if bethinks popu lists have forgotten it? My own opinion is that he con not be nominated nor in dorsed in a populist convention again. "Then why his gyrating? Of course he will be listened to like the circus crier, but I don't believe he can Bryanize our party. Yours truly, " Joim C. Youho." "Bakes Citv, Or.,May4, 1897. "Friend U'Ken : I am in receipt of a letter from George Washington Kelly, the Ku Klux gentleman from Washing ton county. I gather from his scrawl that the meeting of the 8th is to be a joint Jesuit afUir in which the dems and reps are liable to take control of our wild man from Glenco. I have written him pretty fully and reminded him that "union" or "fusion" delegates would probably not be seated in a populist state convention. I think this lellow is somewhat enlarged by his own impor tance nd needs looking after. I sur mise also that Jack is prodding this fusion business. If we find his banJ meddling in populist affairs for the dis ruption of the party I guess you will know what to do at the extra session, and so will I. We will check up on him somewhere along the line later onv Kelley kicks about the resolution look ing to a provision of funds. Oliver, of Lake county, has been seen by King, and he repudiates the action oi the slat committee on the assumption that it is mine individually. These two follows are the only ones so far that object. King I think, is now working along the Pennover-Mitchell line to break up the pops and is probably in their political employ. Whether Jack is behind him. also, I do not know, but we will find out later on. In any event, I urge you again to be at Kelly's meeting. The pops hre are going to lay King on the shelf or bust a gut, but then there is no danger of them doing that. Tell Nelson to ans wer my letter. Yours, Johm C. Yochg. "P. 8. I inclose you Kelly's letter. After reading a second time I see he is in the bands of the enemy. I mark special point Preset ve the letter. Don't fail to be on deck. Young." During the controversy between. U'Ren and Stevens each on admitted haying washed dishes at Milwaukee, and thtt each one wan wholly or partially supported by others- U'Ken by his father and brother and Stevens by a son and daughter which had really no bearing on the case at is sue except to show the worthlessness ot the two leaders. Stevens charged U'Ren with riding on a pass from the .Southern. Pacific company, and the latter admitted' that he not only rode on a pass but that he had made application direct to the) -company for the same. Stevens then asked U'Ren who gae him the 80 last winter, and the latter replied that it was none ot his business, but finally said he horrou-nii it from Ttmirna Thia wan not well remembered that at a meeting held last spring U'Ren stated he received the money Iroui a fund which, bad bee a made op by the enemies of Mitchell. There was one of the Young letters which was said to be only a copy of the original and as soon as the U'Ren wing found this out they demanded the orig inal, which Stevens said did not belong to him but if . the committee would Hp point a sub committee to go with htm thev could see the original. But the Bub-committee was not appointed. The trial was very much like bringing the accused into court and allowing him to select his own jury from among his per sonal friends. When Stevens had rested his case the fun began in which the lie was passed and family records dug up bordering on the vulgar, notwithstanding there was a lady present, and finally U'Ren pro ceeded with bis defense, which consisted mainly of extracts which he read from the Oregon City Herald. He then pro ceeded to make an open conlession to all and more than he had been charged with by Stevens. He said he had en tered into an agreement with Simon and explained to the committee why he had done so and wbat the terms of tbe com pact were. He made a clean breast of the whole thing and asked his commit tee to sustain him which was done with out a dissenting voice, and thus the pop ulist party, through its county commit tee, passes into the hands of Simon, Cor bett & Company and assumes the entire responsibility for the legislative disgrace.
