Toledo. Write or Call, ou Mutual Phono It has been broughj to my attention that the Anti-Satotm League, fol lowing the same tactics it has followed in every campaign heretofore, Is trying to besmirch this organization and to-carry on a vicious campaign of untruths. No name seems to be too good to be dragged into the mud by them. I have reliable information that a statement has been made to- the Anti-Saloon League and to the Committee of One Hundred by Mrs. Cora C Talbott, former secretary of the Taxpayers' and Wage-Earners' League, that she was brought into this work by me under the impression that it was a Women's Suffrage movement, and her duties would be those of a physician while I made speeches throughout the state. I also understand that Mrs. Talbott makes the statement that funds have been collected with out authority, and in some way the Brewers' Association has been collect ing these funds. These two statements are absolutely untrue. The collec tion of funds was authorised by me as president, and the secretary was ordered to have a letter sent out in connection with this work. I under stand that Mrs. Talbott, in this purported Jctter, in the hands' of the Anti Saloon League 'and the Committee of One Hundred, states that she ob jected to the raising of funds under her signature as secretary. How 4i4 the good lady think the work of this league was to be carried on? Why did She think Mr. Bortzmeyer, cashier of the Scandinavian-American Bank, was appointed treasurer of this league? Did she think we would ask the brew ers to put up the money surreptitiously? If so, she reckoned without her host. I have always fought in the open, and now, in my 80th year, and probably in my last campaign, I do not intend to change the principles 1 have always fought for, nor depart from my honesty of purpose in advo cacy of equal rights for all the people by no means excluding women, for whose interests I have spent my life to obtain the ballot. My chief con cern in their behalf has always been 40 secure for them their economic in dependence, as married mothers within the home, which alone will enable any woman to quit the business of marrying inebriates or raising drunkards. The moneys collected are in the hands of Treasurer Bortzmeyer, and all those who have donated have received a letter acknowledging receipt thereof. Any one so desiring may inquire from our treasurer as to whether the money has been put in his hands, and I am quite sure he will advise them of receipt of their donation. If there is any one who has paid their money into this organization under misapprehension as donation for carry ing on this work, this league will he only too glad to refund it. It is indeed strange that Mrs. Talbott thought this was a Suffrage move ment when she went to the Portland Hotel, engaged the dining-room for our first luncheon for organization and arranged for the payment of this luncheon, and went so far as to get speakers to express their views against Prohibition. Tl;e real break between "Mrs. Talbott and myself was caused when I found out that she had gone to the Brewers' Association and told them she could be of good service to them in connection with this league, and asked and received a salary from the Brewers' Association on the ground that she was putting in her time and needed the money. On the 26th of August a meeting was held between Mrs. Talbott and myself for the purpose of get ting matters straightened out before starting the general organization. At this meeting a statement was signed by myself as president and Mrs. Tal bott as secretary that the two letters sent out by myself, as well as the let ter sent out by the publicity department, were approved. This statement ended with the sentence: "After discussing generally the affairs of the league, the officers ratified all work that had been done up to date by the publicity bureau and officers of the association." I have lived in this state for 60 years, during all of which time I have toiled and worked for the people of my state', and I am willing to leave it to the publ.c to decide as to whether I would lend myself in any way to any organization or any act that could be construed as anything but honorable Every one in this state knows Mrs. Duniway and her family. I wish further to say that, if the occasion arises and I deem it necessary to go further into this matter, I will be glad to publish some additional facts in these same papers not necessary to publish now. and will meet the conditions as they arise. If the Anti-Saloon League, by its paid foreign agitators or Commit tee of One Hundred, think theyan becloud this issue by trying to drag into the mud my name or others, they are very much mistaken. I expect to carry this work on to the conclusion of thi, campaign, and then allow the people to judge as to whether we will control our own affairs in the State of Oregon or allow the paid agitators of the East to show us what to do.
