SAYS GOVERNOR
Grand Jury's Charges Termed
; 'Unfair, Unjust, Untrue.' '
ANIMUS SEEN IN REPORT
Executive Declares That Parole Of
ficer Keller Never Acted as Spy
' at State Penitentiary.
' SALEM. Or.. Dec 4. (Speolal.) "I
have the utmost contempt for a tale
bearer, and If Joe Keller had come t
me bearing tales of what Murphy had
been doing or any other man at the
prison I would not have tolerated It for
a minute."
This ts the assertion of Governor
Withycombe -today, when asked to make
eome specific statement as to the espi
enaze allegations contained in the re
port of the .special grand Jury which
has been investigating the prison.
"There is absolutely nothing to th
charges as to espionage. But. listen,
2 have positive information that the
local representative of the Portland
Journal endeavored to mane an ar
rangement with one of the Janitors In
the Capitol building to Keep a lao on
Joe Keller, to watch and report to
him each time that Keller entered my
office, and how long he stayed there
and as Just to the dates ana times,
That is what I call an ellon at espi
onage. and my information along this
line is correct.
Keller's Tlalta Explained.
"Joe Keller came to my office quite
freauentlv when my Son was ill in
"Washington and my daughter was
back there with him. liy daughter
acted as my chauffeur in driving me
to the state institutions eacn after
noon, and during her absence, when Mr.
Keller was not busy. I asked- him to
do this for me. Because he appeared
at m v office each afternoon the idea
was gathered that he was reporting
to me what was occurring at the
prison. Had he attempted to make such
reports I would not have tolerated it.
because I despise a taieoearer.
"I wish to say. as a concluding state
ment relative to the report, that after
reading it more carefully the animus
behind it Is apparent on the face. It
Is unfair, unjust and untrue. The facts
have not been given as they exist
and apparently no attempt was made
to secure information from rename
sources which would show this to be
the case."
Report Be Delayed.
Attorney-General Brown will have a
reDOrt of his own to make on tne ques
tion of paroles at the State Peniten
tiary, but It will not come until after
the grand Jury cleans up Its work as
to indictments which may be returned.
He was asked by the Governor to make
a probe into conditions surrounding is
suance of paroles and the grand Jury
reDort Just made Is an offshoot or that
Investigation. The Attorney-General
said today, however, that his report
will not be forthcoming until the crim
inal proceedings now pending before
the grand Juries are brought to a head.
This means that the report of the Attorney-General
probably will not be
sent to the Governor until after the
first of the year.
Parol Officer Espial.
Parole Officer Keller, who was the
principal subject of the special grand
Jury's report on the prison, today as
serted that he can account for every
penny In the prisoners' loan fund, and
drew a distinction between the fund
provided for by law and the fund
which was secured through donations
by the prisoners. His books show that
there Is 1171 in the fund make my do
nations of the prisoners, and these are
itemised. As of November 21, this year,
loana were made to the men amounting
to 1142. as shown by his books.
"This fund was donated by the pris
oners themselves and is a fund I start
ed myself. It is entirely separate from
the fund provided for by law, and I
have to make no accounting to the
Warden for it." said Mr. Keller. "The
grand Jury asked me no questions as
to this fund, so the situation could be
fairly explained."
Mr. Keller displayed a letter which
he had written to Warden Murphy
August 31, 1918, In which he called the
Warden's attention to the fact that
$;07.6 had been lost from the regular
fund by bad loans. Two ef these loans
amounted to 1113 and he said that the
Warden made them himself. He pro
posed to the Warden that If an honest
attempt were made to require the men
to repay these bad loans, he would
transfer enough from the fund donated
by paroled men to the regular fund to
make that fund good, calling the War
den's attention to the fact that he
would have to report on the regular
fund to the Legislature, and that the
deficiency caused by bad loans would
be up to the Warden to explain.
"That doesn't look much as though
I had a knife out for him, does it
asked Keller.

Frank Riley Highly Commended.
Automobile travel showed the great
est increase during the year, Herbert
Cuthbert, executive secretary of the
association, reported. Frank Branch
Riley, Portland lawyer, was highly
commended for the good he accom
plished during his speaking trip
through the United States and Canada,
carrying the message of the natural
wonders of the Pacific Northwest to
more than 40,000 persons.
It was pointed out that millions Of

Publicity Takes 86 Per Cent
During the year 88 per cent of our
income was spent on publicity," said
the report. "Fourteen per cent went
for overhead managements and admin

HOT TEA BREAKS
A COLD TRY THIS
Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take a
tablespoonful of this hamborg tea, put
cup of boiling water upon It, pour
through a sieve and drink a teacupful
at any time. It is the most effective
way to break a cold and cure grip, as
it opens the pores, relieving conges
tion. Also loosens the bowels, thus
breaking a cold at once.
It is Inexpensive and entirely vegetable,-
therefore harmless. Adv.
hat this system was thrust upon the
State Penitentiary by an expert hired
by the State Board of Control, and was
nstalled during March a year ago. The
grand Jury calls the system antiquated,
but this indicates that It is a very
young infant as far as the prison is
concerned.
"The system, I admit. Is somewhat
cumbersome, and Is not as easily work
able as the system which I found here
when I came, and which was in use up
to last March, but when the grand Jury
asserts that the present system leaves
it so that costs cannot be accounted for
in any department it demonstrates that
its investigation was a delusion and a
snare.
"These books show the cost for every
single department of the prison down
exactly what it is." Saying this, he
further demonstrate! by a practical
demonstration that he could do Just
what he said.
. "In addition a double chfck is given
on this through the vouchers, and I
can not only furnish this information
from the books, but I can ascertain it
from the vouchers in a 'very brief
time."

No more campaigns for war funds
for the Red Cross are contemplated,
according to a message received from
H. P. Davison, chairman of the Red

mation that the Red Cross, while plan
ning more extensive work than ever

further funds.
Membership in the Red Cross Is to be
the backbone of the organization, and
to this end it is hoped that every adult

hearty response to the call for mem

With reconstruction under Way In
Europe the demands on the Red Cross
will be without parallel, but the over

ing Relieved of Rheumatism.
Gains Fifteen Pounds
"When I first started on Tanlac I
was so crippled up with rheumatism
that I had to use two walking sticks
n order to get about at all. But after
taking four or five bottles every pain
was gone and I have actually ' gained
fifteen pounds besides."
The above statement was made by
William Choate, S4 West Riverside ave
nue, Spokane, Wash., recently.
'Rheumatism," he continued, "was
only one of many troubles Tanlao re
lieved me of. I had suffered from a
bad stomach for twelve or fifteen years.
I could eat scarcely anything but what
gas would form and almost cut off my
breath and bring awful faint, weak
feelings over me. There was a terrible
hurting In the pit of my stomach, and
if 1 ventured to eat anything except
the lightest food it would almost put
me out of commission.
"This was my condition a little over
a year ago when I made my mother
and brother, over In Iowa, a visit. Soon
after I got there my troubles got
worse. My kidneys started bothering
me, I had awful pains In the Small of
my back and constantly had 'headache.
Then started In a Biege of rheumatism
which I will never forget. I was laid
up for six months and was flat on my
back for several weeks hardly able to
move. It started in my legs, then got
In my arms, and the pain was some
thing awful from the tips of my fingers
to my toes.
"When I did get up t was In such a
bad shape I had to use two canes in
order to get about at all, and this is
the fix I was in when I got Tanlao.
I read the statement of a man in the
paper one day that fit my case exactly
and decided to see If it would do mo
any good. Well, to make a long story
short, Tanlac simply did wonders for
me. Before I finished my second bot
tle I threw my canes away and could
walk as good as anyone. And eat
why, I never had such an appetite. All
the sourness left my stomach, my back
ache and headaches disappeared and I
haven t had a touch of rheumatism to
this day. One of those bottles of Tan
lac I drove 30 miles to get, our local
druggist being out at the time, and I
would do so again under the same
circumstances. It's a real pleasure for
me to recommend Tanlac, and I will
gladly tell anyone personally what It
has done for me."

"I find the Mentho-Laxene Just fine

With very little advertising, hundreds

larger. Get a 2Vi-ounce bottle, concen
trated, and mix with simple syrup to
make a full pint. Directions and guar
antee of satisfaction are with each bot

whole family. It Is cheaper and better
than ready prepared medicines, but Busy

your children by giving them castor oil. Chamber
