CAr.lPAIGfJ METHODS
SCORED BY DR. BOYD
Civic and Political Life Black
ened by Suspicion and
Distrust, He Says.
DEAR PRICE PREDICTED
Pnstor Asserts Community Must Pay
for Religions and Other Im

Array Classes.
EXCERPTS FROM DR. BOYD'S
SERMON OSf ELECTION.
When Catholics or Protestants
or a Masonic organization or any
creed or class arrays itself
against another for political pur
poses it introduces an element
that is destructive.
Our whole political campaign
has been a welter of personalities.
Here we are a few days after
wards with our hands dripping:
with the nastiness of it.
Our whole civic and political
life is blackened by this creed of
suspicion.
Many may be congratulating
themselves that certain elements
in the Courthouse are eliminated,
but eventually they must pay the
price for the methods employed.
It is an evidence of our social
atmosphere.
With the election just passed as his
theme. Dr.. J. H. Boyd, at the First
Tresbyterian Church last night, de
clared that the community must pay
dearly in the future for "the creed of
suspicion and distrust that has dom
inated the campaign." .
"Here we are now a few days after
ward, with our hinds dripping with
the nastiness that has been uncovered,
and our whole civic and political life
blackened by this creed of suspicion
and distrust." he said.
"When Catholics, or Protestants, or
ft Masonic organization, or any creed
or class segregates itself and arrays
itself against another class for poli
tical purposes, it introduces an ele
ments into, politics that is destructive.
When you treat others with contempt,
you must pay the price.
"Our whole political campaign has
been a welter of personalities. There
was a man and I hope he is here to
night, although I do not see him in
the audience sat at my table a few
days ago, and, in our discussion of the
political situation, he poured out con
tinually slimy suggestions about cer
tain of the candidates. When I said
to him: "If this is true, you ought to
publish it," he answered: "Oh, I don't
believe in bringing personalities into
a political campaign.' And yet his foul
mouth had been breathing personalities
into 'my ear, that his cowardice pre
vented him from coming out and giv
ing in the open.
Price Mut Be Paid.
"Many may be congratulating them
selves that .certain elements in the
Courthouse have been eliminated; but
eventually they must pay the price for
the methods employed in accomplish
ing this.
"When you divide a city into East
Side and West Side, Catholic and
Protestant, Jew and Gentile, some time
the fires of hell are bound to burn In
that mass of prejudice.
"Remember when you shall complain
In the future over the vast sums that
must be expended for armaments in
this country, that you are paying the
price for Aryan arrogance and Mon
golian prejudice.
, "This creed of suspicion and con
tempt drags down to a low level the
prestige of public office and public
service, until men feel that it is an
unworthy thing. Some few men in
office are honored, but you will find.
with few exceptions, that it is men 1
the offices in which they are brought
the least closely in contact with the
whole of the people. In the present
hour, the large mass of our leaders
are resting under the contempt of the
large mass of the people.
"When you are introduced to the
burgomaster of a European city you
are meeting a man in whom is reposed
the confidence and respect of the peo
pie. Is our own Mayor so regarded?
Since he took office he has been made
the object of suspicion and contempt,
and the commissioners with him.
Social Aunosphrre Shown.
"It Is an evidence of our social at
mosphere. I sometimes think that the
Mayor and commissioners themselves
have lost their self-respect under it
when they will sit around their table
at the City Hall and quarrel like school
boys.
"The result of all this is misgovern
ment. There are no cities in the world
worse misgoverned than American
cities. You can hardly get a man to
invest himself in public service, so
long as the dark influence of sus
picion and contempt is abroad in the
land, and so long as the people assume
the attitude of discrediting public
office and doubting the integrity of all
men who hold public office."
Dr. Boyd based his sermon on the
text from the "Sermon on the Mount."
in which the words appear: "Whoso
ever shall say to his brother, "Thou
Fool' is in danger of the hell of fire."
He led up to his remarks on the
political campaign by pointing out that
an attitude of contempt toward an in
dividual or a class breeds contempt and
discord In return, and that the atti
tude of persistent pessimistic criticism
is destructive to all the good elements
in the individual or in society.
"The critical faculty . is the ' most
active and at the same time the" lowest
of the human faculties." he said.
seen at San Antonio. Tex., on June 14,
of that year, and Mr. ana Mrs. Victor
E. Innes were indicted on a murder
charge, it being alleged that they killed
the Nelms sisters by administering poi
son, i
Mr. and Mrs. Innes were found by of
ficers near Eugene, Or., where they
were living, and a requisition for the
two to be removed to Texas, asked by
Governor Colquitt of that tate. was
honored by Governor West, of Oregon,
and the two were taken there for
trial.
It was the theory of the officers
that money was the motive for a dou
ble murder. Mr. Innes secured a divorce
from Mrs. Dennis in Reno, Nev.. in 1912.
After that time, it was said, Innes ex
changed letters with the- women rela
tive to investments in oil lands In
Texas and Mexico. Marshall Nelms, a
brother of the missing sisters, said at
the time the Innes couple were extra
dited that his sister, Mrs. Dennis, had
written him that she had given her
money to Innes to make investments
for her. It was the brother's belief
that Innes had received about J14.000.
for he believed Innes had gotten all
that Mrs. Dennis had.
According to the story of Marshall
Nelms. his two sisters and Innes took
the same train West from New Orleans
to San Antonio, where an explanation
of investments on behalf of Mrs. Den
nis was to have been made bv Innes.
This had been demanded by Mrs. Den
nis and her sister, Beatrice Nelms. Mrs.
Innes was also in the party. At San
Antonio the party left the train and
Mrs. Dennis disappeared. Miss Beatrice
Nelms later dropped from sight and
the theory of the prosecution was-Mrs.
Dennis, was killed by Innes and that
the murder of Miss Nelms followed be
cause of Innes' fear of exposure.

VIETOR WIHS RAGE
Clackamas Nomination for
Sheriff Landed by 12.
E. T. MASS FIGHTS HARD
7
Democrats, by General Consent, Ex
pected to Name cx-Sherlff at
Primary, but Eleventh-Hour
Filing Upsets All Plans.
OREGON CITY. Or.. Mav 81. rsne-
cial.) The outstanding feature of the
election here is the nomination of Max
well Vietor for Sheriff of Clackamas
County, defeating Ernest T. Mass. who
had served two terms. Vietor won by
12 votes and his victory was net cer
tain, even considered possible, until
late Saturday, when the last precincts
brought In the winning ballots.
Vietor. unheralded and unwelcomed
by the leaders of the party in Oregon
City, filed two minutes before the time
for filing ended. Mass, who by com
mon consent was to be given the. nom
ination, did not know of Victor's ac
tion until it was too late for him to
file, and Vietor held the advantage of
having his name on the ballot, while
Mass, supporters had to write in his
name.
Hard Race Made.
Nevertheless Mnsn wrh in the rare.
heart, body and soul. The local lead
ers united in their frantic effort to
prevent the nomination of Vietor.
Word was sent to every section of the
county, and the faithful lined up in a
body for the ex-Sheriff.
Early returns showed Vietor far be
hind. When the complete returns from
22 out of 81 precincts in the county
had been totaled. Mass had 176 votes,
Vietor 100. But as the day wore on
and the ballots from those districts
removed from the influence of the
local leaders were heard from, Vietor
slowly shortened the distance.
The counting was like a race. With
60 precincts In, Mass" lead had been
cut down to 18. Slowly it went down.
It was merely .a matter whether there
were, enough country precincts to be
heard from to give Vietor the lead.
Finally Mass' lead dwindled to one.
with three precincts to be heard from.
The last three decided in favor of Vie
tor, the total being 464 to 452.
Returns Are Complete.
With the complete unofficial count
of both Republican and Democratic
ballots completed, there is no room for
doubt regarding the success or the fail
ure of either district, county or state
candidates in Clackamas.
Dr. H. A. Dedman heads the ticket
for Republican candidates for the State
Legislature, with George C. Brownell
and Harold C. Stephens following. C.
chuebel, for two terms a member of
the House from this county, is out of
the race. William M. Stone is Repub
lican candidate for District Attorney,
opposing Gilbert L. Hedges, Democrat,
who is a candidate for re-election.
W. J. Wilson, the present SHeriff, has
buried John F. Albright beneath a flood
Of votes, while D. C. Boyles is the Re
publican nominee for Recorder; M. E.
Dunn for Treasurer, W. W. Everhart
for Assessor and W. A. Proctor for
Commissioner. J. E. Calavan, County
School Superintendent: 11. H. Johnson,
County Surveyor, and Dr. W. E. Hemp
stead, Coroner, all Republicans, were
unopposed at the primaries. F. G. John
son Is Democratic nominee for Assessor.
J. U. Campbell. Circuit Judge, and Miss

ably will receive Republican. Demo

Volunteer Department Does Good Work
In Staying Spread of Flames Re
building Is Proposed.
MADRAS. Or.. May 21 (Special.)
Fire early this morning destroyed one
of the principal store buildings of
Madras. The fire was apparently of
incendiary origin, as the fire was well
under way In the stairway and upper
story when discovered. The building
was owned by Douglas Hood and was
occupied by James Rice, general mer
chandise, with a stock aggregating
close to $8000, with Insurance for about
two-thirds of the loss. The building
was fully insured.
The work of the volunteer fire de
partment of Madras, together with the
adequate water system, did excellent
work In saving the brick bank building
just across the street and the other
buildings in the vicinity. The building
where the fire started was doomed from
the start and the work was directed
to saving the other property. Little of
the merchandise was saved. .
The owners of the lots are today talk
of the erection at once of a modern
brick or concrete building on the site
that may be used for garage purposes.
PEACE ADDRESS IS GIVEN
President Pennington, of Pacific
College, Is Speaker.
At the Friends' Church, East Thirty-
fifth and Main streets. Dr. Ievl T.
Pennington, president of Pacific Col
lege, Newberg, addressed the congre
gation last night on "The Fallacy of
Preparedness." He was introduced by
Rev. Homer L. Cox.
Big, boyish and brave-voiced. Dr.
Pennington rose at the words of intro
duction and entered on his theme with
a vigor that showed real preparedness
on his part at least.
"Germany has attacked the I'nited
States." he declared, "and has taken a
large portion of the capital city. She
is now pushing her conquest of the
couptry."
The speaker explained at once that
there was no need for physical appre
hension at that moment, but that he
meant to indicate the rapidity with
which the militaristic spirit was
spreading throughout the Nation.
"We are being paralyzed and Prus
sianized as rapidly as the exponents of
preparedness can bring it to pass." he
announced. "Few of us realize the ef
fort that is being made to make a mil
itary nation of the United States. Pre
paredness not for peace, not for inter
national harmony, nor for anything
save war and readiness to fight to
be able to kill more British or Ger
mans than they can kill of us, to be
able to send more ships to the bottom.
"Europe, it seems to me. should be
the final answer to the argument for
preparedness," said Dr. Pennington.

Uao tha ax!
George did.
and LOST!
George Washington was a thrifty and forehanded man;
he died, it is said, the richest man in the new world
America's first millionaire.
He had a weakness for getting things cheap; and like a large number of
people in his day, he often played the lotteries. One adventure he records
laconically in his diary under date of Oct. 14, 1788 (three months before he
was chosen the first President of the new Republic):
"By profit and loss, in two chances in raffling for encyclopaedia
Britannica, which I did not win, j 14."
This great work, already famous, was deeply coveted in Washington's day.
And such rafflings were many. The custom still prevails.
A few weeks ago, at a charity fair in New York City, a set of the new Eleventh
Edition of the Britannica was offered in a raffle and 1800 tickets were sold.
The sum of $450 was realized from the sale of a single set of this work. It is
doubtful if any other set of new books in any language could bring such a sum.
The people of today are as eager to own this famous work as in Washing
ton's time, as is evidenced by the fact that more than 70,000 people have
already paid more than $16,000,000 for the new Eleventh Edition.
The reason is clear enough. In Washington's day, as in our own, the
Encyclopaedia Britannica represented the finest digest of the world's knowl
edge which could be obtained.
It is this fact which has made it for 148 years the standard in the English
language, and incomparably the greatest work of reference in any language.

Of Perennial Value
' Like a fine watch, like beautiful furniture, like precious jewels, the
value does not rapidly decrease. A few days ago, at an auction in New
York City, the sum of $137.50 was paid for a secondhand set of the
'Cambridge University" issue of the new Eleventh Edition. For his
copy the owner had paid something like $150 nearly two years ago ; and
had the use of the books in the meantime.
This splendid work you may now obtain for a little more than one
third this figure a brand-new, complete and unabridged copy of the
Eleventh Edition, guaranteed by the publishers both as to its contents
and as to the quality of the binding, paper and printing,
not in the large-sized "Cambridge University" issue ; that would
be absurd; but in a .new "Handy Volume" Issue of the same work
which the publishers have made for us ; every one of its 29 volumes and
30,000 pages and 15,000 illustrations, identically the same as the larger
and higher-priced work, except in size.
Not Much Longer
But this chance can last for only a little while longer. We arranged
with the publishers for an enormous printing. This alone made possible
the phenomenally low price at which we are able to offer you these books.
Now the publishers advise us that on account of the rising costs
everywhere they cannot possibly supply us with any more sets at these .
prices, when the present contract is out.
When you purchase a set of the new "Handy Volume Issue you
have the assurance that you have paid for It the lowest price at
which It will be sold that It will not depreciate rapidly In value, and
that It will be worth for a long time very nearly what you paid for It.
A 130-PAGE BOOK FREE
The publishers of the ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA have pre
pared a richly illustrated book of 130 pages to tell you all about this
great work and the new "Handy Volume" Issue, and its usefulness to
you. It is full of interesting stories, clever dialogues, beautiful pictures
a book packed from cover to cover. Some of its contents include:
100 interesting bits of knowledge revealing the ENCYCLOPAEDIA
BRITANNICA from a hundred different points of view.
A little history of the BRITANNICA from the days of King George III,
with 70 portraits of the noted men who have made it the greatest work
of its kind.
Twenty pages of interesting dialogue telling of the unexpected in
terest of the BRITANNICA for women. .
A clever story about the way children get interested in it
Portraits of the Nobel Prize winners and other famous contributors
to the new Eleventh Edition.
Nearly two hundred half-tone illustrations, color plates, specimen
pages and the like.
Whether you are interested in the BRITANNICA or not, you and
every member of your family will thoroughly enjoy reading this book,
as big as a magazine.

antee that it is absolutely complete and unabridged; and to this guarantee
