Surreptitiously.
Rev. E. H. H. Holman, who was ar
rested a week ngo on a warrant Issued
in the Justice Court at Ontario, Or., for
defrauding Charles Goddard and George
Patterson, hotelkeepers, out of a $39 board
till, was released by Judge Gantenbeln
yesterday on a writ .of habeas corpus.
Rev. Mr. Holman was pastor of the Con
gregational Church at Ontario, and Is at
present agent of a life insurance com
pany In Portland. The head office of
the company is Dps Moines, where Rev.
Mr. Holman formerly lived.
The warrant for the arrest of the ac
cused was based on an affidavit sub
scribed to by Charles Goddard. Jut'J o
Gantenbeln, In issuing the writ of habeas
corpus and releasing the petitioner, de
cided that there was nothing in the affi
davit to show that Holman had not paid
the bill, or that any demand had ever
been made upon him for payment. After
leaving the hotel, Holman stayed at a
private boarding-house at Ontario for
some time, and did not leave the place
aurreptitiously.
A peculiar circumstance connected with
the case Is that two telegrams were sent
to Holman from Ontario to Portland, one
offering to dismiss the case on payment
of $400. and the other offering to settle
for $197. Why so much money was de
manded has not been explained. It Is
stated that Mr. Holman owed the On
tario Bank $100 and that this may have
been Included In the telegrams, and also
the expense of the trip of the Sheriff to
Portland and return.

Our Work
The quality of our work has
never been questioned. Some
sticklers for ethics in the profes
sion may condemn us for advertis
ing, just a difference in methods,
but if they are honest they will
not question our skill. That has
been generally acknowledged years
ago, and our constantly increasing'
patronage, the largest 'in the state,
speaks more .eloquently of our suc
cess than mere words. Some peo
ple are always jealous of their
more successful competitors, and
it is natural to suppose that a fewr
dentists are jealous of our success.
It makes no difference. .

any defects. You naturally desire
the best service obtainable. That
