Portland. Jan. 24. To the '' Editor ot The Journal According to Mr. Faulkner, ex-dancing master, "the dance hall is the botbed from which the brothels are kept replenished by the white slaver." He says further: The dance and the saloon are equally damnable. Let there be ho Intermingling of the sexes, and this graceful, 'health-improving' axef else will die a natural death." Profes sor S tribes, renowned champion dancer, says, "No woman can waits wall and waits virtuously." Again he says, "Four fifths of the prostitutes of the United States owe their fall to the dance.' Further witnesses are the many fallen girls who - testify that the dance was the cause of their downfall. One of the most renowned women .of America, speaking ot her' experience with the dance as a schoolgirl. says she is ashamed of it all. and that her little girl shall not Indulge in this dangerous amusement. In peaking of the dance ln the pnbtle schools. Mr. Faulkner makes this state ment! ."The introduction of dancing Into the public school, .opens new fields for the white slaver to operate In.". And. further. "Dancing, to young people. Is like the first taste of human blood to a tame lion tney must have more at any cost." Beware, therefore, . ot the dance. - Mr. Faulkner, advice is, "Keep your girls out of the dance halls, and take a firm stand against the very ex istence ox tne dance.' Would you put a wolf among a band ef lambs; , Well, a child is better than a lamb, but the dance evU is far worse than a wolf. Then. parents and gentle men or the school ooars. dont you think It would be a wise policy to keep danc ing out of the public schools ? - ;-vi.;i i- ----.

She is the oldest settler of the town, having lived there more than SO years. Her husband came to Oregon in 1845. in the day. of Oregon's provisional government, when what Is now Washington county was known as manty county and included the area now embraced within the limits of Mult nomah county. It was not till tha fall ot 184 that Tuallty oounty was changed to Washington county. In the besinnlng ! of our history the government of Oregon was entrusted to an executive committee of three men David Hill. Alan son Beers and Joseph Gale. The county seat of Tuality county was HlUsboro. which was named for David Hill, on whose dona tion land claim it was located. David Hill wanted to call the county seat Co lumbus, out It war referred to as Hill's claim, and finally aa Hlllsboro. so the name Columbus failed to take. aaa Not only did Colonel T. R Cornelius serve his -state in the Cayuse war. ln i4-47. ana in the war of 1855-54 and In the Civil war, serving as colonel tn the Indian war of lsSt-St and In the Civil war. but be also was one of the men who organised the company that built the first railroad ln Oregon. This company was organised at - Amity, tn Tamhill county. May 2S. 1847. Tbe first board of directors was composed of W. T. Newby of McMinnville. Colonel T. R. Cornelius of Washington county. J. T. Belcher of Lafayette. W. C Whltson of Dallas and Joseph Gaston of Port land. Ben Holladay came to Oregon tn the fall of 1868 and begin fighting to secure the land grant rights gtven by congress to the railroad company organ ised at Amity the preceding year. Hol laday Invested $15,000 la votes of pox- chasabla members of the legislature and they passed a measure prepared by aim transferring the rights of the first com pany to Honadays company. The bitter fight waged by the rival companies and the final winning of tbe contest by HoUaday are ancient history. The united States supreme court de cided that the Holladay company had secured tt rights through fraud and that it had no legal , rights and could not take the land grants transferred to It by the purchased votes of venal mem bers of the legislature, W. M. Everts. later secretary of state nnder President Hayes. -was paid a fee of S2S.0O. and discovered a plan whereby Holladay could organise a new company, and this new company could nave assigned to it the rights Illegally obtained by the former company and thus secure the land grants and other concessions.
