ington Court House,
SAYS IT LOOKS AS IF
ISIS TO BE THE
FINISH OF HAWLEY
Writer Shows How
Congressman Is
Interests of the People.
"Well"
Serving
Salem, Or., Oct. 12. To the Editor
of The Journal The campaign for rep
resentative in the 1'lrst Oregon Con
gressional district is becoming highly
interesting, and judging from some of
the remarkable methods and arguments
adopted by Mr. Hawley and his man
agers against Frederick Hollister,
Democratic candidate, they are greatly
alarmed. For this they have good
reason, for it begins to look as if this
is to be the finish of Hawley.
We notice that Mr. Hawley has a
motto. It may be seen on nearly all
of his campaign literature. .Here it is:
No interests to serve but the public
interests." A fine motto; a beautiful
motto, if the word "beautiful" mav be
applied to mottoes. But it is hardly
appropriate to the occasion. The facts
do not bear out the assertion. Here
are the facts:
Kver since Mr. Hawley has been a
member of congress he has been draw
ing a salary of $75 a month from the
Woodmen of the World and $5 a day
and traveling expenses every time he
attended a meeting of the board of
neaa managers or wnicn ne is a mem
ber.
Attends Two Meeting's'. '
The regular bpard meetings are held
in Denver four times a year. During
the past year the records show that
Mr. Hawley has attended two meetings j
ot the board at Denver when his con
stituents supposed he was serving
them at Washington, the meetings at
which he was present being one in
November, 1913, and another in Aug
ust. 1914.
Here is something that looks sus
picious. In the Congressional Record
of August 8, page 14.R99, we find this
statement by Speaker Clark:
"Yesterday morning the chair ap
pointed the gentleman from Oregon,
Mr. Hawley, on the commute of 48 to
attend the funeral of Mrs. Wilson. The
chair baa jst received a telegram
from him saying he has gone to Ore
gon and cannot be here."
Mr. Hawley's managers have been
telling us that he was busy in the
capital all summer working in the in
terests of his people. But on August
8 be sent a telegram to Speaker Clark
saying he had "'gone to Oregon." But
he did not come to Oregon; he went to
Denver on a little vacation trip. There
Is absolutely no doubt about it, for on
page 13, of the September issue of the
official organ of the insurance organ
ization of which Mr. Hawley is one of
the directors, or managers, we find:
Pats In Expanse Aocoant.
"August 10, 1914. At 9 a. m. the
board of head managers met pursuant
to adjournment. Present: John Patti
son, head manager; W. C. Hawley, head
manager; John H. Altom, head man
ager." So much for that. Then we turn to
page 14 and find this in the expense
account:
"W. C. Hawley. railroad fare Wash
ington, D. C, to Denver and return
and sleeper, $100.42. W. C. Hawley, 9
days, per diem, $45."
Now, does this look as if Mr. Haw
ley has "No interests to serve but the
public Interests?" It takes a . lot of
nerve for even a hardened politician
to make such an assertion In the face
of such an array of facts. Why did
he tell Speaker Clark that he was go
ing to Oregon? Was he ashamed to
have the speaker and his colleagues
know he was going off to Denver for
nine days to attend a board meeting?
What right has Mr. Hawley or any
other congressman or senator drawing
a monthly salary from insurance or
any other organizations? He should
be satisfied with the $7600 a year he
draws from the federal government,
for it is much more than he would be
able to earn in any other capacity.
Besides a man cannot serve two mas
ters and do justice to both. Do the
people of Oregon hire Mr. Hawley to
attend board .meetings at Denver? Per
haps. We shall see on the third of
November if they approve his coursed

Will Loan Slides
Free of Charge
After months spent in quiet prepa
ration and assembling of slides, the
Pictorial Instruction association with
offices at room 635 in the county- court
house, is prepared to loan without fee
educational lantern slides to illustrate
lectures given before civic organiza
tions throughout Oregon.
Thousands of lantern slides have
been gathered by Miss Alicia M. Zier
den. director. The board of trustees
consists of Samuel Hill. T. B. Wilcox,
Henrietta K. Failing, G. F. Johnson,
A. S. Benson. The slides illustrate
subjects that have to do with industry
in and development of Oregon, edu
cational methods, general cultural sub
jects, etc.
The work is supported solely by the
contributions of public .spirited citi
zens. Saratiel Hill, president of the
Home Telephone company, has given
a letter saying that it is a project for
instruction in the state of Oregon of
the greatest importance.
The promoters are trying to secure
financial support to carry on this
work.

Bloodhounds Unable
To Find Missing Boy
Woods Around Sara, Wash., Thorough
ly Combed by Sheriff Word's Party
Last Seen by Hunting Companion.
Although the woods in the vicinity
of Sara. Wash.. were thoroughly
combed by Slreriff Word, bloodhounds
and a searching party of about 100 no
trace could be found yesterday of
Mathew Harris, the 11-year-old son of
J P. Harris, of Sara,- who disappeared
Saturday afternoon. Bloodhounds
picked up the trail a number of times
Saturday night and early Sunday
morning only to lose it later.
The boy had been hunting with Alvin
Tower, but according to the story told
by the latter the Harris boy left him
to pick some popcorn, about 3:30
o'clock in the afternoon. That was the
last seen or heard of the boy. At dusk
when the boy did not return the neigh
bors organized a searching party,
which after failing to find any trace
of the lad, telephoned to Sheriff Word
for bloodhounds.
Sheriff Word left here immediately
after receiving the call Saturday night
and arriving at Sara at midnight im
mediately took up the search which
continued through the night. He re
turned to Portland yesterday leaving
one of his deputies to continue the
search.
(Special to The Journal. 1
Hillsboro, Or., Oct- 12. Fire believed
to have started in a defective wiring
early Sunday morning gutted the build
ing on Main street owned by Ed Lyons
and spread so rapidly that roomers on
the second floor were compelled to
escape through windows in their night
clothes. The first floor was occupied
by the restaurant of Louis Stohler and
a barber shop run by L.. P. Adams.
Loss to these is confined to damage
by water. Furniture and fixtures on
the second floor are a total loss. The
fire originated in the room occupied by
Stohler. who had risen early to serve
breakfast to a party of hunters.
Mrs. William Smith, the cook, as
still in her room when the fire was
discovered and her husband rushed up
the stairs to awaken her. He was cut
off from the stairs by stifling smoke
and lowered Mrs. Smith from a rear
window by an improvised rope of bed-
clothing. Ole Dahlheim, a roomer.
threw his clothing from a window and
followed it, and the same means of
exit was adopted by C. Lee of Wheeler,
who had rented a room Saturday night.
Lee lost ail of his effects. The fire
was quickly extinguished on the ar
rival .of the department.
The building was at one time the
Washington county court house. It was
of frame construction and was built
in the early fifties. Many years ago
it was moved from the court house
square and has served many purposes.
Prior to the victory of the "drys" at
the local option election it was occu
pied by a saloon from which a high
rental was received, and the building
had a statewide reputation of return
ing the highest income in proportion to
its value of any building in the state.
The owner, E. J. Lyons, lives in Cali
fornia. When used for public purposes the
building was the seat of government
for a wide territory which included
what is now Multnomah county.

idle. '
Would you be helping humanity when you knowingly created hunger and want?
You, or others near and dear to you, who sadly need the weekly income now received, might find it cut off. The world can
present no more sorrowful picture than worthy men and women seeking employment day after day,' week after week, month
after month, and failing to find it.
While you are thinking of the few unfortunates whom you might hope to "reform by law" you should also think
of your duty to the thousands whom you would force out of work and perhaps onto the streets, hungry and starv
