MRS STUBBS IM UNTO ORMSBY M'HARG BY REPUBLICAN VOTER "The Interests" Suspected of Being Behind Anti-Cham- berlahr Suffrage Worker. PREDICTS HASTY RETREAT DUOi. of Man wno Cannot BeXrig- Xollsd' Believed Back Of Uort; Tribute ald sr. Smith. Carrollton, Wash., Sept. 28. To the Ed tor of The journal I notice with much Interest, the effort being made by Mrs. Stubbs of Illinois to defeat Senator Chamberlain of Oregon at the coming tall election, and. on the ground, so claimed, as being; in the In terest 01 woman surf rage, when, as maiier or raci, according to all sur face indications it appears she must be employed by and working; for "the Interests." - She most certainly has not a vestige of ground on which to stand, such as an honest, sensible woman would nat urally desire in a worthy cause in her attempt to defeat the senator in the interest "Of woman suffrage. Senator Chamberlain's position on the woman suffrage question is well and favorably known throughout the coun try, and I believe the woman voters of Oregon will treat Mrs. Stubbs ef fort with scorn and In such a manner that, provided she possesses the intel ligence usually credited to one em ployed on a worthy mission, she will soon bo as anxious to beat a hasty re treat homeward as was a certain Mr. McHarg, whom, some years ago, "the interests" sent into Oregon to try to induce some of the Oregon legislators to stultify themselves by repudiating Statement One. Pretended Season Declared flimsy. I believe your editorials commenting on Mrs. Stubbs' foolish mission into Oregon will make a live question be fore voters of the state, and induce them to seek her real motive, being forced to the conclusion it would show the height ojfolly for her to attempt to make us believe she has been sent here : in the interest of woman suf frage in 1)14, when equal suffrage has been enjoyed by Oregon voters since 1912, donaters of the $15,000 supplied to Mrs. Stubbs are too shrewd to throw their money away on such flimsy pre texts. There is some other object to be gained, but what Is it? To my mind the reason is obvious. Her employers, "1 he Interests," are after Senator Chamberlain's political scalp, also the scalp of every other conscientious Democrat who has taken an interest, with President Wilson, in securing bonest legislation which places all on an equal footing before the law, some. thing entirely at variance with desire of "The Interests," who in the past ".have enjoyed special privileges. , XoAdoo's Warning Recalled. The unjustifiable hoarding of money by numerous banks and trust com pa niea in various sections of the country! Ka3rpoed?ty"8ecretary of the Treas ury McAdoo, together with the fact that quite recently numerous mills, factories and other employers have either suspended operations or reduced wages, is, in my opinion, convincing argument that there is a concerted movement on foot to bring about such distressing conditions as will justify, them ("The, Interests") in howling "The Empty TMnner Pall," thus endeav oring to coerce many voters into sup- nnrtlnv j'TlAniihl Irani am orA ty" so icalled, for' the favored few, "The Interests." The letter signed by Traveler." un der heading of "Anti-Democratic Cam paign," and published in The Journal of September 24, clearly exposes "The Interests' " Insidious method of secur lng results to bring about a period of nard times, thus enabling them to once more hoodwink the people as of yore. Writer Disgusted With "Machine." As for myself, I have been a voter and resident of Oregon since 1879, and usually supported the Republican ticket until the disreputable methods employed by the -machine" or "as sembly" element of that party dis gusted me and induced nre to quit them until fair open methods could prevail. This course I have been pleased to notice, has been very liberally followed for several years. judging rrom results attained.

Pathfinders in every sense of the the word, two Camas, Wash., belles, hiked from the "Washington city to Portland Sunday, the first Camas girls to walk from their homes to the Rose City. Tliy were Miss Amelia Lorenz and Miss Julia Chilberg, well known members of Camas' younger set. The girls left Camas at 6:30 o'clock Sun day morning, reached Vancouver at noon, and after crossing to the Oregon side, arrived in Portland at the home of Miss Lorenz sister, Mrs. Frank Dietzman of 230 Bast Seventy-seventh street, north, at 3 o'clock.

Chamberlain Has Made Good. As to the senatorial aspirants, I had the privilege and pleasure of campaigning with Senator Chamber lain during his first race for . gov ernor through Douglas county, and during that time he gained my high, est esteem, which his every official act and performance since then has j strengthened. During my four years' work as assessor of Douglas county,' I became quite well acquainted with Mr. Booth, now an opponent of Sen ator Chambrelain. My time covered the period from 1899 to 1902 inclu sive, about the time part of the timber locating business became so popular. I was not aware, however, until certain cases developed in the courts, that Mr. Booth was accused of being Implicated in the land fraud business. That blemish on Ijls otherwise ex cellent reputation, recently brought to the attention of the voters by the press, he has endeavored to explain away, and, the Morning Oregonian claims, editorially, that he succeeded. Chambrelain Faithful to Public. Aside from that, however, Mr. Booth's record In the Oregon legis lature, . Insofar as the best interests of the common people are concerned, is such, that I believe all fair minded unprejudiced voters who be lieve in fair play will- shun him on election day. As to Senator Cham berlain, he is at his post of duty, where he has always been since be coming a public servant, and he has never to " my knowledge performed, officially or otherwise, an act or deed for which it became necessary to offer an apology to his constitu ents. In conclusion, I might say, I have quite a large number of staunch friends in Oregon, who, I feel sure. will take more kindly to proffered advice from me as to who ' to vote for than they would from Mrs. Jessie Hardy Stubbs with a "long sack" from Illinois. Hence, in the Interests of fair play for ail, I hope to see Dr. Smith and Senator Chambrelain win in November. . H. B. GILLETTE. ennlal period which ended Septem ber 30. According to news received by State Engineer Lewis, contractors engaged on the Crater Creek diversion works, in connection with the Tumalo pro ject, were driven out recently by a heavy fall of snow.

By Percy M. Sari. London, Sept. 28. (By mall to New York) Indications Increased today that the kaiser would lose his garter not his ordinary hose supporter, but his badge of membership in "The most noble and honorable order" 1 of that name. He got it from Queen Victoria and was proud of it at the time, as con stituting him a knight of .the oldest and most exclusive order of chivalry in the world. Possibly now he will not much feel its loss if at all. The only embarrassing thing is to de cide on a cause for his Germanic majesty's expulsion. There is no pre cedent for expelling a foreign mon arch from the order and the Knights of the Garter set great store by prece dent Treason Sard to Prove. High treason would justify expul sion but the authorities agree that one ruler can hardly be accused of treason to another, even though they may be at war. Prababilltles seem to be that grounds for expulsion will be found in the Ger- mens' destruction of Liouvain, which experts at heraldry contend consti tuted treason to the lofty ideals of chivalry to which the order Is dedi cated.

Kay Heard on the Columbia Eecall Member of Highway Commission Says Flaln Statement Was Made of Jnst What Work Would Be Done. Salem, Or., Oct. 7. State Treasurer Kay today took issue with the state ments of H. C. Wood of The Dalles, who, discussing the Columbia county court recall situation, said: "The greatest mistake the court made was in bitching up with the state highway commission, for the commis sion made promises, through its speak ers, sent into the county prior to the vote on the road bonds, which It has no authority to fulfill." "There is no foundation for such a statement," declared Kay, who is a member of the highway commission, wltlf Governor West and Secretary of State Olcott. "The commission sent no speakers into the counties and the attitude of the commission was not misrepresented. I made the public statement at St. Helens,, in the pres ence of Governor West and Secretary of State-Olcott, the other members of the commission, wno concurred, that we wgigld only hard surface four or five psjles of road in each of the coun ties ofi Columbia. Clatsop and Jackson, and that we had promised nothing more. We had beard that a report had been circulated that the commission would hard surface a much larger area and I took pains to make it clear that nothing of -the kind was contemplated. My statements were made in the St Helens courthouse, before an audience of those interested, and I cannot un derstand how there could be any mis understanding."
