JONES' LETTER. CoinmlBRloner lHniverH Kxplalus Why it Was Written. Hood Eiveu, Jan. 23, 1S97. Editor CheonicIie: "In reply to communications from friends at The Dalles, will you pleaee publish this: "I am a little surprised that Mr. Jones should deny having promised to vote for J. H. Mitchell for senator, yet his Baying to M. Nolan or anyone else that all those parties who signed that article were d d liars does not make it so, nor does it constitute a denial. What we want is for Jones to put him self on record over his own signature, denying that he made any such promise, ,,then we will satisfy people who is tell ing the truth. This Mr. Jones will never do. He knows he made the promises juBt as we state it, and he knows we can and will prove it if called upon to do so. Now to explain how the promises came to be made. "I was working at all times for the whole Republican ticket (as I have done all my life). In doing so I met a great many Republicans who said they were not going to vote for Jones. Some said be was an Englishman and not friendly to Senator Mitchell, and much more in that line. In fact it seemed that Jones' opponent from Wasco had been around among the voters and promised to vote for Mitchell if elected, and quite a num ber were inclined to bait. Right at this time Mr. Jones ani other candidates visited Hood Jiiver. He (Jones) asked me bow things were looking. I told him exactly as above stated, and that I was a little afraid for him. He volun tarily replied : 'I don't see how the people got such an idea into their heads. Moore and I have always been very friendly to Mitchell and never thought of voting for anyone'else.' There was quite a crowd standing near, among them a few who bad expressed them selves as opposed to Jones. I called to them, introduced them to Jones and said them : 'You're mistaken about Mr. Jones, he is as good a Mitchell man as you are." He then reiterated statements be had made to me and added : 'Don't be uneasy about that, but rest assured that if I am ejected I will vote for Mitchell.' After he left for The Dalles, there was some dissension oyer the mat ter, some saying that he did not appear sincere ,when talking to them and they did not believe he meant it and they were not going to vote for hi in, etc. Then someone went to The Dalles and Informed Jones that all was not fair for him down here, when Jones wrote mo a letter. This accounts (or hia having written the letter after having made verbal promises. "I took that letter to the polls, and with it and the several witnesses who bad heard the promises, secured a good many votes for Mr. Jones. I did this with the very best of feeling, bolieving that I was helping him all the time, never dreaming for one moment that I would ever have any trouble fordoing my best to help elect him, But when be THE BEAN AUTOMATIC SPRAY PUMP. Ie, unquestionably, the moat success ful and perfect working Spraying Devico yet invented. It is a nusversal testimony that more, as well as better, work can be accom plished with the Bean Spray Pump than with any other pumpou the market. With this pump one man can charge the receptable and leave it to direct tiio spray just where it is wanted, and thus with sufficient hose puss .from tree to tree. The solution is delivered in a fine mist or spray, penetrating every nook and cornor, thus doing better and more effective work than is possiblo by any other method, and with no waste what eAer of solution.

PER & BENTON -AGENT F6R THE DKLLES, went to Salem, and relused to go into the house, my friends here have been making it somewhat tropical for me, somo going so far as to say I knew ho was not a Mitchell man at the timo I worked so hard to elept him. Taking this on one side and the denial of Jones and his friends on the other, I have come to the conclusion that nothing short of this explanation and the publi cation of hie letter to me would ever set the matter right. While I am very sorry to be compelled to do this, I feel forced by Mr. Jones and his friends to do so. I send you the original letter be cause I am informed that Jones says he never wrote me a letter, but that I inuet have gotten hold of one he wrote to Dr. Leavens and now claim it belonged to me. "You are at liberty to permit anyone co read it who doubts its authenticity, but please be sure and return it to me. I want it not for its intrinsic value, but as a gentle reminder in the future of the fallacy and uncertainty of some tilings here below. "A. S. Bi.oweh8." The following is Mr. Jones' letter, written on a sheet of paper with the Umatilla House heading : The Dam.es, May 30, 1890. A. b. BI.OWKK8, JiSQ,, HOOD KlVKIt I Deau Sik: A friend of mine who ought to be well posted, came up on the train last nigtit and said to me, "Jones. things look a little yellow for you fellows at Hood Ktver." 1 couldn't get at the exact cause ot his remarks. 1 had sup posed when I left your town that events were shaping themselves in our favor, and cannot believe them different now, as I know our friends there can, and will get into the harness cheerfully and earnestly in ourbehult, and make a spe cial effort fpr the legislative ticket, now that they know how Mr. Moore" and my self stand on the Mitchell question.

Beulah Gilgard, a 10-year-old ward of the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society, is now confined in the Magdalen, Hpme, where she will remain till she repents of her misdoings. The girl was sent to the society from Wasco county several months ago. She has given Superin tendent Gardner more or less trouble ever since, but did not get into any seri ous trouble until a few days ago, when she secured f2i wqrth of goods from a promfuent dry goods firm by forging the name of a patron of the store to an order. The girl, who lias been working in a family on East Twenty-first street, wont to the store early in the week and said she was Ella Jones, a domestic in the family of the lady whose numo was signed to the order. The order was sent to tho office, where it was marked "0, K." and the girl was given a skirt, a suit and a clock, the whole bill being valued at $2-1, When the order was afterward sent to the signer for collec tion, the lady knaw nothing whatever about it. Ex-Chief of Police Hunt was sent out to investigate the matter, He learned from Superintendent Gardner thatJEIla Jones, who had also been a i LARGE CONSIGNMENT WILSON HEATERS JUST RECEIVED at L Remember.

Tho same night it was reported to Mr Gardner that tint Gilgard girl had brought homo a lot of new goods, which she claimed had been given her. J lu at once went to the houee whore she worked, and, after a little talk with her, made her confess that she had forged the order and obtained the goods. Tho goods were returned to tie store the same night, and, after lecturing the girl on the certainty of detection in sucl dishonesty, Mr. Gardner took her to tho city jail, where she was kept for two days. The girl's conduct had demonstrated that she could not he controlled by tho society any longer, and, their being no retorm school for girls in the state, Mr. Gardner was obliged to send her to tho Magdalen Home. The lack 0 a girls' reformatory very frequently workH a severe hardship on flie Boys' and Girls' Aid Society, which often is forced to keep girjs that are really too vicious for such an institution, or to send them to tho Magdalen Home, where fhoy are thrown n with girls whose society is not helpful to them. Mr. Gardner lias brought this mutter to the attention of the authorities several times, but no action has ever been taken. Oregonian. OuorgU Uulverfclty Graduate' Jlluntru Ptr.
