PATTERSOrJ Candidate's Connection With Telephone Company Is Held Embarrassing ' Pointing out the embarrassing position ot Charles A. Hall, can didate for governor, because of his connection with the Coos & Carry Telephone company as Its president, W. E. Burke, campaign manager for I. L. Patterson, one of. Hall's opponents, has written Hall challenging him to meet Pat terson In debate. His letter to Hall follows: , ; "I am enclosing a statement taken from the report ot the Coos ring Medicine '.

' ' , ' ' . ."According to ;thls report, the Coos ; A Curry Telephone , com pany fof which you are president, is controlled by officials of the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph company. It is shown plainly, in fact, since C. E. Hickman, division superintendent of the Pacific Tel ephone & Telegraph company, of Portland, voted all the preferred stock and one share of the com mon stock as shown by an extract from the minutes of the meeting of the7board of directors on Jan uary 16, 1922;. and of , the divi dends declared for the year 1921 the preferred stockholders, all of which stock was voted by C. E. Hickman, received 110,000 and that the common stockholders re ceived $4,800. "This report would naturally put you in a compromising posi tion .before the people at this time, as'there will be a bill before the people at the fall election which, in case it should carry, would make the public, service commission appointive by the gov ernor.

EDITORIALS OF THE PEOPLE Pioneer Woman Replies Editor Statesman. I speak for the women of this city who are supporters of George White for governor. It seems the opposition press, mostly Demo cratic, have only ridicule for him 'and. his friends. Service men get nothing but. ridicule and abuse from the Capital Journal. If that is the real spirit of the people of Oregon I am much mistaken. Where shall we find men in ru ture to serve their country In time of need it we heap abuse and bur lesque upon every ex-soldier who shows his head in public affairs? Are the civilians alone worthy of fair treatment? As to a military man for governor, Was not Gov ernor Lord, a trained soldier, one of the most popular governers the state ever had? I have looked in vain for praise and commenda tion by the Capital Journal for any of the candidates for gover nor, and it is indirectly support ing all but George White. It has no material for praises in the rec ords of any of the candidates two senators, two representatives and the present governor, the men who nave been making- Our laws' ana running up our, taxes It has only condemnation for White and that beeadse he was a soldier. Is that fair to the people? It cannot deny that he has a record of sav ing $90,006 to the taxpayers of the $140,000 the state gave him to conduct the draft In Oregon. Can it show where any of the old guard lt'is supporting. Republican or Democratic, ever handed back any money entrusted to them? Is it not a fact that the Democrat it is supporting for governor was the only member of the state draft board who demanded and took pay for his services? The Journal will swallow any of the old state house machine that has run the legislature for the last ten years and given us the high est taxes in the United States, If it can only succeed in defeating White for the nomination. I am one of the women who can see through, this sham of a reform and socalled Independent news paper that is really the organ ot the old bi-partisan machine that has never done the people any justice except to keep its unprin cipled politicians in the fat places. We love George White and they hate him because he has had the kind of training that would make all that kind of patriots respon sible and, after trial on their rec ord, they would be asked to walk out of office. White Is the only man the old legislative machine workers, who take the last dol lar in sight and then cry for more, fear. They can manipulate all the rest as they have done in the past. No wonder they weep and gnash their teeth at prospect of retiring if a main like White la nominated May 19, as I hope he will be.' PIONEER WOMAN. m ftotesftwe Shake Into j your snoes Allen'!

What is his record as to law enforcement? Why did he withdraw efficient special agents January 1, on a plea of economy? What is Olcott's attitude on the Portland roadhouse evil? An editorial in the Portland Telegram for May 10, outlines the roadhouse situation, and follows "The .roadhouse known as the Twelve-Mile House - at Base' Una road and Falrview avenue has again been raided by the sher iff's forces and its proprietor. ar rested charged with maintaining a public nuisance. The raid was made In the early hours of Sun day last, the natural time for such houses to do their best business under cover of darkness to be tin tall operation. - The Old Homer ctead, another road house Rockwood, was raided at the same ttme while a disorderly dance was in progress. It is a matter of .common .knowledge that both these places are resorts for dissi-. pation In "its worst forma. , "Why cannot these houses ' b. permanently ' closed. emptied, boarded up, put out of their ne farious business for once and all? Is It that they have not yet fiUrd op the measure of their iniquity? Is it that they hare not yet made themselves sufficiently obnox ious to the decent peopla who live nearby? "In Rockwood, a little rural crossroads settlement, where de cent people are trying to raUa do cent children, this Old Homestead is a moral smear. Here, where children can but Inquire and know what their neighbors are do ing children hear talk about this resort such as should never come to little children's ears. A clean mind is one of childhood's inher ent rights. A child's mind, clean of filthy information, is Impossi ble where such houses exist.. ,rWlthtln4 few rods of . the Twelve-Mile House are seven farm houses. Within 80 rods is a rural school house. This road house is built In a bizarre style that marks it as an architectural vamp. Is there a child of 6 years of age and over in any of these farm houses that has not inquir ed and learned what this . odd looking house is doing? Who U responsible for this poisoning ot the child mind of this fine farm ing community? "These houses, and three or four others not far from them, have long ago forfeited all right and title they ever may. have, had to -hang out a sign or offer enter tainment of any kind. So long as they remain open, they are an cpen sore in society, infectious and abominable." OREGON CITIZEN. LAST CALli IN PUZZLE CONTEST terday by " Major James B. Dusen- bury.
