The animal's hesd was missing, but

Farklson. who superintended the cir
culation of the petitions, has addressed
a letter to C. K. S, Wood, of this city.
In which he Insists that District Attor
ney Cameron be compelled to proceed
with the prosecution of circulators of
the referendum petitions who have
been Indicted for fraud. At the same
time Mr. Farklson etrongly intimates
that by the Indictment of certain of tha
petition circulators. District Attorney
Cameron Is playing politics.
In his letter Mr. Parklson declares
that deputies In the office of County
Clerk Fields, following a careful In
vestigation, have found the signatures
In the case of two of the alleged forg
ers to be genuine, notwithstanding the
faot that the same signatures had been
pronounced forgeries by D. W. Rosa, a
handwriting expert employed - by the
defense.
The letter of Mr. Parklson to Mr.
Wood follows:
Copy I Sent.
T am enclosing copy of a letter sent
to General Crawford relative to the
testimony given in the referendum case
by handwriting expert. D. W. Ross, in
an effort to prevent the people from
passing upon the merits of the large
university appropriation mad by, the
last Legislature.
"A copy of this letter Is sent, as It
contains two additional names of sign
ers of ' the referendum petition that
were declared the work of cirrulators
by this so-called expert, which proved
to be genuine signatures.
"Tou have noticed, no doubt, that our
estimable friend. Judge Cameron, has
procured the Indictment of Circulators
Charles Mathews and E. J. Rallies
"Tou will remember Mathews as the
man who testified before the Salem
court that he signed the confession for
th Burns detective agency for the pur
pose of getting out of jail, after he
had bean there for four or five days,
and was unable to procure ball, owing
to the fact that his brother was out of
town.
"E. J. Rahles. on the other hand, is
the young man who refused to make a
confession for the Burns detective
agency.
"At thks time, and in both cases, the
Burns detective agency declared that
they would see that these two young
men were prosecuted, and that other
circulators, who had made confessions
under promise of Immunity, would be
turned loose and receive their pro
tection. lajuatiee Declared Done.
"I wish to call your attention to
these farts at this time. Mr. Wood, as I
am convinced that there has been a
frightful Injustice done to these two
young men.
"In looking over the testimony In the
referendum case I find that tha hand
writing experts In County Clerk
Field' office declare the work of both
of these men genuine, and without a
suspicion or taint of fraud.
"Again I have looked over the names
and investigated the names declared
fraudulent by the. Burns detective

agency, and have located almost every
man on these petitions, and they de
clare that their signature on the peti
tion Is genuine.
"Now comes Judge Cameron with an
Indictment agalnet these men.
"During this last Summer a number
of these circulators were arrested,
through the efforts of the Burns detec
tive agency, put under pressure, and,
according to the testimony of all of
the circulators, were promised immun
ity for testifying in substance as the
detective agency desired. Judge Cam
eron permitted these men. after mak
ing this confession, to be released upon
their own recognizance.
Inquiry Is Made.
"Since being relieved of the pressure
of work in the referendum1 ease. I have
Investigated the law relative to the
appointment of a special District At
torney by the local presiding judge,
with the object of appealing to the
court to give us a special prosecutor
so that all cases of fraud could be
prosecuted in accordance with the laws
of the State of Oregon.
"I find that section 1001 of the code
Is the only law we have on the subject.
This does not give the necessary, power
to the court for such an appointment.
However. I railed on Judge McGinn and
Judge Gatens and laid the facts before
them, and suggested that I call on Dis
trict Attorney Cameron and ask that
he consent to an appointment of your
self. John Jeffrey, E. S. J. McAllister
and W. S. U'Ren as special prosecutors.
This I did, but Judge Cameron turned
the proposal down coldly, with the
statement 'that he did not need any
assistance.
"Next in the line of developments,
and on Monday of this week. Judge
Cameron returns Indictments againt
two of the circulators who secured
fraud names. These were Harry Coler
and Sy. Sandroskey, alias Sam Conn.
Release Is Requested.
"Following this, on Tuesday, the
Burns detective agency appeared be
fore Judge Gatens and requested the
Judge to release these men upon-their
pleading guilty, with a promise of ap
pearing in the case against Mathews
and Rahles.
"Thus It will be seen that the Burns
detective agency appears to be running
the- District Attorney's office, and that
they are endeavoring to protect fel
lows who perpetrated fraud In the
referendum petition, who, during this
last summer, signed untrue statement
or 'confessions' for the Burns agency
In thefr effort to destroy the university
referendum, at the same time using
thtse false confessions to convict lnno
cent men. whose petitions check up all
right, oml who had the Independence
and nerve to stund out against these
1'urns detectives, when they were alone
In Jail and told that they had been
deserted by me; that I was guilty of
crooked work relative to the referen
dum, and that if thty did not confess
and ngn a statement for them that
thev would be convicted.
"Now, the question In my mind,
Colinel YVood, la this: Is this damnable
thing going to continue any longer?
"Are the people of the State of Oregon
going to permit this detective agency,
that has been thoroughly discounten
anced In court in the referendum case.
to longer continue their damnable practices?
"I have confidence in humanity, and I
feel that if we get these facts before
the editors of The Oregonlan, Journal,
Telegram and Dally News that they
will certainly assist in showing up
these frightful Injustices, and, further,
lend a helping hand in the conviction
of these five or six circulators who
were the wilful perpetrators of fraud
on the referendum petition."

Taylor-Street Methodist Church will
rirohiibly build an addition to the pres
ent building for the accommodation of
the Sunday school. The question will
be Taken up at the quarterly confer
ence and official board meeting at the
church tonight.
At the last meeting of the official
board a committee, consisting of J.
D. Ogden, C. D. Mlnton, Seth Rlggs,
Alex Mulr and T. S. McDanlel was ap
pointed to determine what the cost of
an addition would be. This committee
will report at the official board meet
ing at 7 o'clock tonight. Just prior to
the quarterly conference.
It has been decided that a satis
factory addition, two stories high, IS
by 28 feet, can be put up for $2500. It
Is the plan to use the first floor of
the addition for primary classes, and
the second floor for adult Bible classes.
In the primary department are now
bout 125 children, while the Taylor-

only 75.
As to the building of a new church.

the new building on the present site,
as they consider it an excellent loca
tion for a downtown church.
There Is also a difference of opinion
as to how the building should be con
structed, some of the board members
wishing to have a building with audi
torium above and stores oeiow. ano
others desiring to have a church
building without these. It is pointed
out that the stores would materially
increase the revenue of the church, and
help to bear the expense.
Churches In other cities which have
tried the plan of building over stores
have been communicated with for In
formation as to how the plan has
worked. There have also been sug
gestions that it will be better to wait
before building until after the Presi

will be easier to raise money at that
time.
