On Aug. 22, 1921, Mr. Hawley dodged the vote on the War Finance Corporation measure for Agriculture relief, and that good measure was de feated. On Nov. IT. 1921. when the war profiteers and stand patters , tried to cut the surtax on incomes of . $70,000 or : more, from 50 per cent to 32 per cent, Mr, Hawley voted for the cut and with the profiteers. 4 Mr. Hawley voted for the war grafters again when he voted to table the John son resolution to investigate war frauds.

We are glad Dean Allen has given us the facts. To be so far removed from the robust realities of life as to call a story "dirty" and "nasty ami not understand that the Im plication these words carry are to "things morally and sexually im proper," Is. to say the least, re grettable; and that is the most charitable assumption one can make with regard to Mr. ' Lisle. That is exactly the kind of story we thought Mr. Lisle meant Prof. Thatcher bad told at the dinner given for the writers. ;r It seemed utterly incredible; but what is one to think in the face of such a direct accusation? Who for instance, that knew Mr. Lisle would have believed it possible that he should get himself : tan gled in sueh a web of easily con troverted statements? A number of us who had heard Prof. Thatcher a.t a previous writers dinner; given by the Ore gon Writers League, In Portland, voted him the best speaker on the program. He appeared to us a man of delicacy and refinement of spirit and sincerity of purpose. We are glad that our judgment as to his character waa not so mil taken as Mr. Lisle's statement would lead those who read them to believe. SALEM MEMBER, 1 Oregon Writers' League.

CHAPTER 167 v HOW THE OARAGE MAN SET Dicky glanced at me quickly with ro much concern in his face that X had hard work to keep from showing my" consciousness of the ruse I had played. For 1 knew that I was not nervous, and that only my fear of his safety which I could not display had urged mv request to wait for him to come heme with me. "Poor girl!" he said softly. "I suppose you must be done up. Well!" with a sudden drop into playfulness, "If she wants great, big strong man to take care of her 8 he shall have him. But it strikes me you've changed your tone lately" with a quizzical look.; "You weren't, so anxious for my company a ' little while back." "Dont, Dicky!" I said with a little shiver, creeping closer to him, glad that he could not guess the shiver to be as much from fear for him of the man Smith as it was from the 1 recoUectioa ef the ugly quarrel we had just had- i "All right. I won't say another word, Just rest here," and he piled me down beside him on the grass bank and adjusted my bead As a final Inducement to the democrats of Salem district, l ae sir. te state that a cross should be placed before ballot No.- 51"by every democrat tnat aesires mat the next constable of this' dis trict shall ; be a man that will enforce the laws without fear or fimr tfion Inn f arm ISA man that can win out at the general elec i ,: y - - -r - ?

And as. he kept his vow of silence I had time to pull my self together and arrange the facts" I had learned in orderlv fashion for presentation to Lil lian,' and to'plan my course In re gard to Dicky and the new com plication which had arisen in the unexpected advent upon our neigh borhood horizon of the man Smith. One thing stood out peremptor ily. Under . no circumstances must I let Dicky know of Smith's proximity. I knew that be was still smarting under the sting of having let Smith escape after ty ing the man up in the woods near the reservoir. If he should guess that Smith was In the neighbor hood, nothing could keep him from going after the man again and turning him over to the authori ties. Waiting For Repairs. Aside from the danger there would be for Dicky in an encoun ter with so dangerous and desper ate a man for I knew Dicky too well to think that he would do anything save rush for Smith single-handed I was far from sure that Lillian wanted Smith ap prehended as yet. - Although my - friend charac teristically close-mouthed a3 to the real nature of the problem she was working out had said I'.tlle to Justify my belief, yet I was sure that Smith and the man who had so frightened Katie were but cogs in a machine so infernal, so deadly, so menacing as to tax the utmost power of Lillian and her associates in the destruction of it. And from long association with her I had .learned that ot all things 'she feared most was the premature seizure or even alarm ing of the men or women whoa the. government agents were tracking. "Qive them plenty of rope." "Let the smaller fry lead us to the big fellows." I had heard. those words from her lips so often it was impossible for me ' to forget them or fail to act upon them. I was-fairly certain that Smith had recognized me, but was counting upon bis own disguise to fool my eyes. ? Still, I told myself; one nev er could be absolutely sure ot any thing with so cunning a criminal, and I chafted wun impatience at the delay that was keeping me from Lillian, even though it were of my own making.

"If they start that blasted car without any trouble, I'll kl;k them or "ft, 1 don't particularly care Which." One - of the garage ' men, a stocky chap . with : a humorous twist to his mouth, got out of the repair car, went over to Dicky's climbed In, and pressed the start er, tried 1, again, got out and went to the rear of the ear. "How about your gas?" he ask ed. "Indicator says there's some," Dicky replied. "Did you turn on your emer gency?"' - Dicky looked at him blankly. "Never thought of that, as long as the indicator registered as much as that," he answered. "- The, stocky man did not snort aloud, but his face expressed the utmost contempt for amateur mo torists in general as he turned a lever on the gas tank, went back to the wheel again, and after two or three trials set the motor to purring. Better get some gas before you go much, further," he advised, as he climbed Into his own car again. "That emergency won't carry you very many miles." : . He drove off in a clatter that emphasized the tense silence In which Dicky looked after the re treating car. I did not dare to let even a hint of a smile appear; although the. look upon my hus band's face was distinctly mirth Inciting. "Well! I'll be darned!" Dicky said at last. "Come on, let's go home. The treat , Is certainly on me this time, but it you ever spill this may your lucky star help you."
