8 THE OREGON STATESMAN. SALEM, OREGON WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE 1, 1021 lull MY ISBJ1 Adele Garrison's New Phase Of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE CHAFTJilt 78 HOW MADGE STARTLED A f CONFESSIOX FROM ALICK HOLCOJtfBE. - For a momnt I clung to the back of a chair while the walls of the' room whirled around me In temporary vertigo. 'From my " little mother I had Imbibed lasting horror of the false friend who had lured her husband from her. doomed her to worse than widowhood, and me to the aad . childhood in which the father ! pokn- of with whis pered shame. This woman Was to me like the bog-y man of which some little children stand in such terror, it fcemed to me that I couldn't again look upon her evil facfr, eontront the sneer I h.i'i watched in the oaf's upon the on ly occasion 1 had ever seen hr. Bui n- a few minutes the love for, mv'l'ttli mother which wai my; whole life until death tailed her away from me, carm to the rescue of my will power. With almopt her last strength she had urged me to forgive and chorion my father should I ever meet bim. In the name rohmn hour she hart referred to the woman who hart itofen h!s love with no diminu tion of the just hatred she had felt for so many years. I knew that if my mother could knov: what I was doing she would ap prove of my facing and thwarting the malevolent personality that had, caused fo much misery. What were my own feelings compared with this opportunity for'fcervins my father and in part avenging my dead mother, all in one; moment? -My pulses thrilled with a primitive ds'.re for con flict and vengeance as 1 went back upstairs in hurried quest of ft ED Experienced Truck Driver Must have references and know the city thoroughly J People's Cash Store Alice Holcombe. for the recess time was almost over and 1 v -wneci to -e her beforo tiie pu pils came In. A Hitter Smile. "I have been called away by a busmesr, matter 01 the gravrt importance-." I told her. "If 1 at tend to it prop-rly I ought to get that train 10 minutes after schooi closes.

"There's noth :nn here 1 enn't atfnn to easilv Hut you can't make it from her? unless you p,et a taxi " "I'm Koing to telephone for one right now." I said mechanically, for my tho'ighls were tusy. not with Alice Holcombe's cheerful ready word.-?, but with th? dis mayed expression I had seen leap into her eyes at my announce men t . She didn't want me to go for some reason which I was sure war, unconnected with tho work de volving upon us in the absence o' ilr. Stockbndge. She had spoken only the truth. There was noth ing especial ou hand, and I knew Alice Holcombe was' the last per son in the world to object to ex tra work. She was generous in the extreme in thought and ac tion. It WMf not the thought of thf extra woik that was troubling her. With a st'dden impulse I P'tt my hand on her shoulder. "What Is It, dear?" I asked "You don't want me to go 'or some reason not connected with the work. T can see that. It is imperative that I go to the city this afternoon or I shouldn't think of leaving. Hut at least tell me what is troubling you. I shall away easier Tor knowing, and per haps I can help you." She smiled a trifle bitterly.

"Otherwis-j you can't help me. Run along, child, and telephone for your taxi. Those hoodlums will be storming up.stairs in another min ute or two." "My taxi can wait." I said de teriuinedly. "1 can leave my pu pils alone long enough to tele phone. Hut as it happens I've had so many queer notions and premonitions myself that I ?eel I'm particularly well qualified to help out a similar sufferer." I was almost talking at random, saying almost anyth:ng that came into my head, but Alice Holcombe reized upon one word avidly. "Premonitions:" she exclaimed. "Do you have them, too? Then vou know what I'm suffering to day. I know something terrible is going to happen to Kenneth. The fear of it has been crushing me all day." (To be continued EDITORIALS OF THE PEOPLE The IVonus Itill. Editor Statesman: The nature of my work pre vents me from taking an active personal part for the success of (he soldiers' bonus measure which comes before the people for their endorsement next week, so I am asking a short space in your col umns in which to urge the favor able action of the voters of Mar ion county thereon and to ask that they take time between now and election day to study the sub ject, talk it over with friends and neighbors, to -go to the polls them selves, and insist upon their ac quaintances doing likewise. I am aware that all tax-raising movements are naturally unpopu lar, but the ultimate result of the success of the bonus measure will be the reduction of taxes in Ore gon by increasing the home-builders, the developers of industry, the producers of wealth, the tax contributing forces, so that from that standpoint it is a movement of great economic value for the future. It means that the state will use its credit to finance sev eral thousand vigorous, patriotic young men to establish homes and productive enterprises in Oregon and that the state will be fully reimbursed by those men from the products of their industry, while during the years of that reim bursement they will also contrib ute their full share in the prog ress and advancement of the state In supporting the schools, the churches and the various civic en terprises of the state, and sharing In the exactments of taxation with their fellow men. This action is similar to that of the parent who has a worthy son and has not the capital to give him a decent start, but is willing to go to the bank and assist the young man in borrowing the ne cessary sum. The young man in time pays it back and the father loses nothing. The action is sim ilar, but with this difference: In the case of the father, he gains nothing except the satisfaction of having assisted the son, while in the case of this bonus the state not only will have the satisfaction of aiding a son who has proven worthy, but will also derive a substantial and permanent bene fit from the productive enterprise it has made possible. I was one of many who went to the school houses, the theaters and the public platforms in the Red Cross, the liberty loan and other patriotic missions in which the sympathies of loyal Americans were enlisted a few years ago. In the name of the American peo ple and by the authority 'of state and national officials I promised the "boys" who went out to rep resent Oregon in the conflict for the protection of human liberty and American honor that they would not be forgotten or ignored when that conflict should end. Now, I want to see that prom ise fulfilled. Those young men dkl their duty faithfully and well. They brought pride and glory to the state of Oregon. They freely gave all they had to give. They loft a good period of productive time when others were reaping great harvests of profit. Let us now be willing to loan our credit co that they may be given a start la life. Honor to a nation's defenders is an investment which produces patriotism and is a credit to a nation's citizenry. Ingratitude to them is a national disgrace and breeds disloyalty. Vote No. 302 YES on June 7. FRANK DAVKY. SUPPLIES SENT CnUiJTY CLERKS Equipment for Special Elec tion of June 7 Dispatch ed by State Special Election to Be Held at High Today A special election necessitate by the failure of any candidate to secure the required majority vote in the regular election held a week ago will be held todav by the student body of the "high school to choose officers to tilt the position of secretary and ser-Seant-at-arm. All but the two nominees securing the highest namber of votes in the regular election have been eliminated, and with but two in the race a warm contest is expected. Ruth Grif fith and Marie Rostein are still in the race for the secretaryship while Howard Post, aiid Ellis White will battle for the position of sergcant-at-arms. 1 The secretary of state's office yesterday finished the task of sending out election supplies to the county clerks for the special election of June 7. The county clerks distribute the supplies to the election precincts. It is esti mated that the election will cost $100,000, and of this amount only $15,000 will be paid by the btate. Under a law enacted by the 1921 legislature county courts may use counting boards at the special election, who would begin the count after 20 ballots had been cast. This would make it possible in any precinct to com plete the count within an hour after the closing of the polls and greatly facilitate the gathering of election returns. It is not believed many court." will as yet avail themselves of the privilege afforded by the new law. by Justice McBride. Judge J. W. Knowles afrlrmed, Frank A.

D. Inman estate against State Treas urer Hoff. a rebate of $36,000 in inheritance taxes would be due the Henry L. Pittock estate of Port land, and about $50,000 to other estates.
