PHY HEAVY FINES
this county, combined with the money
received as chairman of the Multnomah
county draft board, should have sufficed
to pay all his indebtedness.
The allegation that I associated with
notorious gamblers for a term of years
as a means of livelihood Is an unmiti
gated and dastardly untruth.
Regarding the case of Cuilison vs. Down
ing, wherein I sued Downing, Hopkins
Co. for an accounting. Judge Raleigh
Stott and later Hon. S. C. Spencer, sitting
as referees, and Circuit Judge Alfred F.
Sears, before whom the case was tried,
all found for me in the full sum sued,
with interest, and they failed to unearth
anything unlawful or criminal in the prof
its of the firm in which I sought par
ticipation under a contract. On appeal
the supreme court decided adversely to
me and I believe the language quoted in
Mr. Hurlburt's letter appears In' the de
cision. It might be well to remember.

CULLIS0N ISSUES REPLY
Candidate for Sheriff Denies
Charges of Mr. Hurlburt.
- John. -Jtf. Cullison.-who is a candidate
Tor sheriff, yesterday issued a state
ment in reply to a letter recently di
rected to him by Sheriff Hurlburt.
The "statement follows:
Jt Is with mingled feelings of profound
pity for the author and considerable
amusement that 1 have read the feeble
reply of the perennial candidate, Thomas
M. Hurlburt, to my charge that he, while
feeding; at the public crouch as has been
hit continuous performance for over 30
years, exacted his pound of flesh from the
nation in time of war by taking from the
government $7.50 per day for alleged serv
ices as chairman of th,e Multnomah county
draft board, which he should have ren
dered in a natriotic spirit without com
pensation by reason of the fact that his
salary of $4300 a year as sheriff was am
pie for the support of himself and famitj
without necessitating unwarranted de
mands on depicted federal resources.
Imitating the methods of the artful
dodger who, when in peril of appreherr
sion following the theft of a purse on t
crowded thoroughfare, cries "stop thief"
in order to distract attention from himself,
Atr. Hurlburt, caught with the goods, is
seeking to turn public notice from hia
indefensible action in taking government
funds for draft board services in violation
of presidential proclamation by indulging
in a silly and scurrilous attack upon my
record, and reputation.
With characteristic venom Mr. Hurlburt
indulges in a deliberate falsehood when
he avers that 1 have refused to pay to
the Pation home a debt due for the car
of my mother, now deceased, and in this
connection a reference to the books of
said home will indicate that all of the
amount had been liquidated long before
hie attack on me with the exception of
the inconsequential sum of $'28. As per
agreement this latter sum was not due
until May 10 and was paid on May 1. It
is to be assumed that Mr. Hurlburt has
no outstanding obligations . as in more
than 3" years' tenure In puhllc office in
SAGE TEA TURNS ' '
GRAYJIAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Bring Back Color and
Lustre to Hair. ,
That beautiful, eten shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture 6f sage tea and sul
phur. Your hair is your charm. It
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked. Just an
application or two of Sage and Sul
phur enhances its appearance a hun
dredfold. Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture; jjou can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients at a small cost, all
ready for use. It is called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound. This
can always be depended upon to bring
back the natural color and luster of
your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's Sage and
suipnur Lompouna" now because It
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied.
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at
a time: by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another aDDli-
cation it becomes beautifully dark and
appears glossy and lustrous Adv.
