ANSWERS HODSON LETTER
W. M. Davis Writes About Matters
in Precinct 8.
PORTLAND, April 16 (To th Kdltor
On rturnlnc bora today I found an art
ful lltrr from O. V. Hoditon. camlMat for
State Senator on th so-called "Hodson-Batly-Bpach-Rd"
HckM. addrwwd to
a a resident of Precinct 8. The ltter
said that Max G. Cohen "ha Precinct No.
8 all laid out tn block, and has a Yaptaln'
wh looks out for you to see that you vote
rlffht"; alo that Mr. Cohen carried the
prcinct for revtln a ynar aro by lrr
majority, by work in at the poll In place
lt day, and that this year he exjxvts to
carry the Mine precinct for Tr. Emmet
Drake and E- B. Col well, for State Sena
tore. "PoesiMy you are not aware," says
the letter, "that Max O. Cohen In m ana tin
your political affairs In Precinct 8."
I would like Mr. Hodon to Inform me
what object he has In wrltlnr a letter of
this character to the voters of Precinct 8.
Is t his desire to belittle the candidacy of
Dr. Emmet Drake and K. H. Colwell. who
are candidates for the same office to which
Mr. Hodson aspires? If this Is his object
It strikes me this is very small politics. He
belnn a candidate himself he should at least
have frottn one of his many hlrellnra to
have strned thts letter. In the first place,
the statements are not true. Max O. Cohen
w-as advocating; the candidacy of Loule
Zimmerman at the last primary and did
all In his power to defeat T. C. Devlin for
the nomination. At the rneral election
whatever effort Mr. Cohen exerted for T. C.
Devlin was done In Precinct No. 10 and
he was not at the polls at all during; the
day except to vote. Although Precinct No.
8 was larrely Republican Mr. Devlin only
carried it by a small majority. These facts
are familiar to every voter In Precinct No.
8. and If Mr. Hod son expects to rain any
votes for himself and associates In thl-
pYrclnct he will have to sticJc a l.ttle closer
to the truth.
I presume he will try some other deceptive
scheme in other precincts to belittle the
candidacy of Dr. Drake and Mr. Colwell.
I think that ns a campaJjrn manacer Mr.
Cohen will measure up favorably with
P. E. Reed. Mr. Hod son's manager, who la
at present lining- up the North End for Mr.
Hodson's ticket.
In conclusion. I desire to say that I am
the committeeman for Precinct 8 and a
member of the executive committee repre
senting the entire Second Ward and otig-ht
to know somethlnr about who is nmnarlnf
campalpna In Precinct 8.

I did anything- or omitted anything- which I
ahould have done while one of the com
pany's attorneys, but merely that I was
"connected with the company.
Coupled with thts Is the claim that I was
a '"secret" lobbyist of the company, and
that my appointment wit the rvetilt of a
political dal of some eort between Mr.
Steel, the State Treasurer, and the com
pany. This Is not true. That my appoint
ment was not due to the Influence of any
officer of the Title Company has been suffi
ciently estabttehed by the uncontradicted
statement of Henry Hahn, Herman Wittenberg-
and A. H Devers, published some
months- arn In The Oreirnnlan. and by ths
letter of Mr. Hahn appearing- tn another
column of this paper. That I did not con
ceal from any member of the les-lslature
that I was In the employ of the Title Com
pany can be learned by Inquiry.
The letter published In this mornlnic's
Oreironlan shows that what I have hitherto
contended Is true; that I accidentally
learned of ths Introduction of H. R. WT,
that I rerarded It as ho utile to the Interests
of my client, the Title Company, and tha
I Immediately reported It both to the com
pany and to the proper Benate committee.
The bill was killed, unanimously. In the
Senate. I have no resrete on that aro re.
aya !enator Coke: "He surely should
not be censured for objecting to such a bill.
W h lie the bill passed the House, owln-e; to
the fact that It was apparently wholly mis
understood or not considered, It did not re
ceive a single vote of a member of the
ienate. The effect of the bill would have
be-n to have placed titles to real estafce In
such unsettled condition that It would have
been a e-reat Injury to the entire state: In
other words. It would require ten years
after a decision of the Supreme Court be
fore the title to any real property Involved
therein would be settled or In shape eo a
person would be safe In buying- the same or
lending- money thereon."
I am aeked whether I will deny tbat the
state banking- bill was prepared In the
offices of the Title Guarantee Trust Com
pany, and tbat I assisted In the preparation
of it. Certainly I deny It. ery banker In
th-e state knows the contrary. The state
banking bill was prepared by a committee
of tHe State Bankers Association and was
Introduced by Senator Haines, who was the
president of the association. Neither I nor
the Title Company had anything whatever
to do with Its preparation. I dM prepare
and present to the Senate committee, openly,
an amendment providing for a separation of
the truet and banking departments, and this
waa adopted.
I do not believe there is a bank or busi
ness house of any s1k in the city which
does not use a telegraph code for the trans
mission of messag-ea. Economy and business
prudence require this.
I am asked whether I will deny having
sent a copy of the banking bill to the Title
Company on March 5, 1P07. Certainly not.
This was long after the L-r1slature ad
journed, and before the session laws were
published. I would send any cltlxen a
copy of any law when he aaked me to go
to the office of the Secretary of State and
get It. That Is what I did In this case.
If the fact that I did aid In the prepara
tion of the Railroad Commission law, in the
Interest of the people, and in my capacity
as attorney was paid for so doing by pubtlc
organisations In the City of Portland, con
demns me. I will have to plead guilty. Mr.
Hurlburt claims he has had 35 years ex
perience In railroad employment. If my em
ployment In the interest of the public Is
a gal net my election, how should Mr. Hurl
burt's former employment affect him as far
as the public Is concerned?
After all. Is not the main question what
sort of a Railroad Convmissloner have I
been ? I am entitled to be judged by my
services as Commissioner during the last 14
months, and on that pro-position I stand.
