Judge Wallace McCamant, whose
Vote as a delegate in the Chicago
convention has been attacked by Sen
ator Hiram Johnson, has Issued the
lollowlng statement in reply to Sen
ator Johnson's charges, published in
Wednesdays issue of The Oregonian:
"In his latest attack Senator John
son quotes the following sentence
from my article in the voters' pamph
let: 'I have avoided committing my-
leelf to any candidate for the presi
dency In order that I might be in a
better position to support the candi
date who wins out at the Oregon pri
mary.' Senator Johnson says: "This
vii not true."
"The sentence quoted etatee a fact
land the reason for Its existence. The
fact stated is that on April 12 when
1 forwarded my statement to Salem
I had avoided committing myself to
any candidate, for the presidency. If
this statement is not true, wherein is
it false? To what candidate had I
I committed myself? When, where
and how had I pledged myself to him?
Johimon Anked for Evidence.
"Perhaps Senator Johnson would
leay that the statement or fact is true,
I but the reason given is untrue. How
does Senator Johnson know my rea
son for refusing to commit myself to
iny candidate for president? Can he
produce anyone to whom I stated a
luifferent reason?
"Senator Johnson says I 'made a
I promise publicly and officially to the
people of Oregon." The sentence
quoted is certainly not a promise. An
I antagonist who meant to be fair
would not refer to it as a promise.
I By no proper construction can the
sentence quoted be tortured into a
promise to support Johnson.
"All my promises were to the effect
Ithat I would not support him. Kena-
Itor Johnson says that my statements
to that effect were made privately.
IThey were made to supporters of
I Wood, Ijowden and Hoover and to
the managers of the Wood, Lowden
land Johnson campaigns. By what
llogic can it be maintained that these
(promises should have been violated?
MrDnnald Knew la Defease.
"If I had desired to secure my elec-
Ition as delegate by false pretences,
Johnson's manager is the last person
I to whom I would have communicated
my determination that under no cir
cumstances would 1 vote for John-
Icon. How can my disclosure or my
I position to Sanfield MacDonald be
I reconciled with this charge of bad
Ifaith and deception?
"Senator Johnson was certainly not
(deceived as to my position. For more
than two months prior to the prima
ries his Portland headquarters was
advised of my hostility to his candi-
Idacy. He had every opportunity to
contest my election and he did con
test it. He had a delegate ticket of
I his own on which my name did not
appear.
"If the republicans of Oregon had
(desired his nomination they would
have elected that ticket. The re
turns demonstrate that 63 per cent
of them did not desire his nomination.
Hia Slogan Is Quoted.
"Sly public commitment to the peo-
Iplc of Oregon is found in my slogan
on the ballot, 'For president, an
American, a republican and a state's-
man: if I had voted for a candidate
Iwho lacks all of these qualifications
II could be Justly charged with bad
Ifaith. a
"Any uninstructed delegate would
May himself open to Just criticism if
I he voted to nominate for president
man so lacking in poise, self-con
trol and accuracy as Senator John-
Ison. Lvery letter that Johnson con
tributes to this controversy affords
additional evidence of his unfitness
I for the high office to which he re
cently aspired.
"He remains silent about those 17
Ivotes from Illinois which he accented
after Lowden had carried the Illinois
primaries. Do the principles for
which Johnson contends apply only
I in Oregon or do they anplv onlv
when Johnson carries the primaries?

FRESH from her success in "Her
Elephant Man" and "Molly and
I," Shirley Mason is to be seen
in "Love's Harvest," a dramatic com
edy of the stage in New York and
Paris. It will open at the Star theatre
tomorrow.
Although she has been an actress
since the age of four (this is to say,
Just 15 years). Miss Mason Is re
garded as one of the "finds" of the
present season, for it is through her
charming performances in the two
recent William Fox productions in
which she was starred that her name
and her pretty face have become
known to fans everywhere. She has
girlish charm and long and varied
experience a rare combination.
"Love's Harvest," is from the novel
"His Harvest." by Pearl Doles Bell,
who wrote "Her Elephant Man." It
opens with a very clever situation. A
young girl Is bequeathed by her
father's will to a man she never has
seen. What she does in this plight
leads her into a dozen eituations just
as strange; it leads her, incidentally,
to Paris and to success on the con
cert stage.
The scenario is by Isabel Johnston,
and among the players are Raymond
McKee and Edwin Booth Tilton.

SALEM, Or., July 29. (Special.)
The Oregon supreme court, at the re
quest of the J. M. Dougan company
of Portland, today enjoined the offi
cials of Klamath county from paying
to any individual, firm or corpora
tion, any part of what is known as
the Klamath county courthouse fund
until such time as the original action
brought by the Portland company to
recover approximately $35,000, alleged
to be due from Klamath county for
the completion of a new courthouse
on the old courthouse site, is finally
disposed of by the state's highest
tribunal.
Two courthouses have been erected
in Klamath county during the past
few years, the last of which was
recently completed by the J. M.
Dougan company at a cost of about
$100,000. Recently the contractors
brought suit to recover from Klamath
county the balance of $35,000, alleged
to be due for the erection of this
courthouse. Judge Hamilton of Doug
las county heard the case and de
cided in favor of the county.
Appeal then was taken by the
company, with the result that the
papers were filed in the supreme
court yesterday.
