Carle Abrams, has given oiit ;the impression, or it has been given out in a news item printed here, that Col. Abrains has had little or no experience as a buyer. That is wrong; dead wrong. Col Abrams has been a buyer eydr since? he was a -boy. lie was abuyer of merchandise for; the general- merchandise .store of his father, and continued as a ; buyer' 4hat store after-the 4eath of his father; lie was for years the buyer of paper and other supplies for the Statesman Publishing Company. If the reader has an 'idea that jCol: Abramjj is not a good miyer, let him ask any drummer ori the road, in almost anyline. For that part of the duties of the secretary-of the Oregorf State Board of Control, there is no . better-qualified man in.the-stated This may-be asserted without qualifications CoL "Abrams may not be the most popular- man with the people who sell things o the state; jbut. his work! will &how up in low costs for supplies bought for the state institu tions and other public uses.

TI3IK TO QUIT The senate has very sensibly de cided sot to permit another inves tigation to be started. One sena tor,, feeling that the election was not entirely over, wanted to start one on Muscle Shoals... It was the same senator, by the way, who announced that la the event of the election going Into the house, be would vote for vice president ac cording;! how his state went on that office, which showed hiia'to be not much ot a man.

Montana is King's native state, where he worked In the mines for years, later he went to Tacoma to work in the shipyards. At one time he was well thought of in the east and received much pub licity in the sporting columns and publications. He always j fought men of his own weight but had to take on some lightweights at times in order to have worthy opponents. King is i said not to have ; been , a spectacular fighter, but waited his chance, and when he delivered his noted wallop, with either paw,: the fight generally ended when , the connection Was made. !
