Hoover and Pres. Lincoln
THE Medford Mail-Tribune picks up real grains of repub
lican comfort in the prediction made by Will Rogers in
Medford last week that Pres. Hoover will be renominated
and reelected. It notes too that Sam Blythe, veteran polit
ical observer, has similar premonitions, and Editor Ruhl con
eludes "Perhaps some of us amateur prophets in the sticks,
who have conceded Hoover's defeat long ago, don't know as
much about politics as we think we do."
Political prophecy is risky speculation. Times and sen
timent change rapidly. The big Hoover majority of 1928
melted sadly in the congressional elections of two years
later. For a time it seemed true that even within his own
party there was "none so poor to do him reverence". Time
alone will tell whether witty Will Rogers made a good guess
at Medford or not; but it is interesting to note something
of a historical parallel in Hoover's mid-term unpopularity
in the case of Pres. Lincoln.
The civil war went badly for two years. The federal
forces lost many big battles: the war was costly; thousands
of lives had been lost. In March of 1863 Richard Henry
Dana who held an appointment under Lincoln as district at
torney at Boston, wrote to Charles Francis Adams:
"As to the politics of Washington, the most striking thing
Is the absence of personal loyalty to the president. It does not ex
ist. He has no admirers, no enthusiastic supporters, none to tet
ob his head. If a republican convention were to be held tomor
row, he would not get the vote of a state. He does not act, talk
or feel like the ruler of a great empire in a great crisis. Tms
is felt by all. and has got down through all the layers of society.
It has a disastrous effect on all departments and classes of oj-
ficials, as well as on the public He has a kind of Z
ness and common sense, mother wit, and slipshod, low level
honesty, that made him a good western jury lawyer. But he "
an unutterable calamity to us where he is."
As 1864 dawned Lincoln was being bitterly opposed by
Henry Winter Davis and Sen. Benjamin F. Wade of Ohio and
by Wendell Phillips, one of the greatest platform orators this
country has produced. Horace Greeley fought his renomina
tion and the New York Herald was unfriendly to Lincoln.
There was a strong drive for an independent candidate and
Gen. John C. Fremont was actually nominated. The con-
veiuion wnicn met at xammuie w icuummai.-.
not even called a republican convention in the official call,
but a "Union" convention.
As late as Aug. 23, 1864 Pres. Lincoln felt he would not
be reelected, and at that time prepared a note and sealed
it in an envelope which he had his cabinet members sign.
After the election he took out the envelope, opened it and
read:
"This morning and for some days past it seems exceedingly
probable that this administration will not be reelected. Then it
will be my duty to cooperate with the president-elect to save
the union between the election and the inauguration; as he will
have secured his election on such ground that he cannot pos
sibly save it afterward."
The tide of public favor turned, and what turned it was
the tide of battle. The waning power of the Confederacy
caused corresponding rise in the political fortunes of Pres.
Lincoln.
There is this parallel between 1931 and 1863, the
country is passing through deep waters again. Pres. Hoover
has been laboring manfully to appease the nation's ills. He
like Pres. Lincoln has suffered from severe criticism from

Richard Henry Dana, it should be noted, reversed his
own opinions within the year, for in May, 1864 he wrote :
. "You can't help feeling an interest in him, a sympathy and
a kind of pity; feeling too. that he has some qualities of great
value, yet fearing that his weak points may wreck him or
wreck something. His life seems a series of wise, sound con
elusions, slowly reached, oddly worked out, on great questions,
with constant failures in administration of details and dealings

Salem folk who attended the horse show feel a dart of pain some
where in their chests when they read of the frightful train wreck
In Missouri and the loss of many of the beautiful horses which had
shown here. Coming on top of the bad tire at the Oakland stables
last winter the loss of fine horses has been disastrous. Those who
grew up with horses miss them, and about their only glimpse of
a sleek horse was at the show. So It hurts to read of the death of
many of these favorites of the show ring.

The Red Cross
By a 0. D ATJKR, M. D.
Marie County Deportment ef
Heal tli
At this time of the year we read
much in the newspapers and hear
much about two great institu.
tloas, the Red
Cross and the
Christmas seal.
Just now the
Red Cross is
having its an
nual roll ceil
and soon all of
us will be call
ed on to pur
s h a se Christ
mas seals.
There are so
many interest
ing things and
events with
which these In
stitutions are
a O. Osaer . an!it&4 that
some information about both
seems to be very much in order.
The origin of the Red Cross
goes back to the time of our Civ
il war. Even before this, Florence
Nightingale had gone to the seat
of the Crimean war and demon
strated how the sick and wound
ed soldiers could be cared for so
that many mote could be nursed
back to health. At the same time,
about 1850-55, there lived a man
by the name of Henri Dunant In
Switzerland. He gave his services
and fortune to improve the care
of sick and wounded on the field
of battle.
He was much impressed by the
work of Florence Nightingale and
it was the inspiration of her la
bors which finally influenced
Dunant to call together in Gene
va, Switzerland, representatives
of many nations to discover some
means of carrying on this welfare
work among soldiers. This group
met again a year later in 1884,
at which -time the representatives
of each nation signed a treaty
called "The Convention of Gene
va," which provided, among other
things, for the neutralization of
p h y a icians, nurses, and the
wounded, a new thing In war
fare. Swiss Flag Reversed
In compliment to Dunant, the
conference adopted as I to emblem
the flag of Switzerland with its
colors reversed, the red cross on a
white background.
United States was not among
the nations who signed this orig
inal treaty because she was too
busy with her own affairs; the
Civil war was in progress. How
ever, she Joined later, but first
developed the idea herself, in an
independent organization. How
this development took place and
how the Christmas seal was or
iginated will be taken up in sub
sequent articles.
Whit health problems eare youf if
the above article raiies say gnestioa in
jour mind, writ that question oat and
send it either to The Statesman or the
Marion county department of health. The
answer will appear in this column. Kame
shontd be signed, bnt will not be used in

News 8 a yeara old:
h
(Continuing from yesterday:
"After passing them here, wo
never saw the Oregonians again.
They elected a young lawyer of
some eminence, as we are told,
named Barnett, as their captain,
and engaged an old mountaineer,
known as Captain Gant, as their
guide through the mountains to
Fort Hall. Several enactments
were made and agreed to, ono
of which was called up to be re
scinded, and something of an ex
citement arose In regard to it.
The law made was that no family
should drive along more than
three head of loose stock for each
member composing it, and this
bore hard on families that had
brought with them cattle in large
numbers.
..
"The dispute resulted in a
split ef the large body into two
or three divisions; and so they
moved on, making distinct en
campments all the way. Captain
Gant was to receive $1 a head
from the company, numbering
about 1,000 souls, for his services
as guide. But a few more such
expeditions following in the same
trail will soon Imprint such a
highway through the wilderness
to Oregon that emigrants may
hereafter travel without such as
sistance. "
"We left them here about the
last of May and encountered no
sign of them again until return
ing in September, when we
struck their trail on the Sweet
water, near the south paes of the
mountains. They had followed in
our own trail as far as that point
and had here turned off, our
course lying in another direction.
"From here, all the way to
Fort Laramie, we-found the now
deeply worn road strewn with in
dications of their recent pres
ence. Scaffoldings for drying
meat, broken utenjils thrown
away, chips ahowLag where wag
ons had been repaired, and rem
nants ot children's shoes,, frocks,
etc., met our notice at every de
serted encampment.
S m
"But one death seemed to have
occurred among them, and this
was far out under the mountains.
Here the loose riders of our mov
ing camp gathered one morning
to examine a rude pyramid of
stones by the roadside. The stones
had been planted firmly In the
earth, and those on top were sub
stantially placed, so that the
wolves, whoso marks were evi
dent about the pile, had not been

"On returning to Rock Inde
pendence, a point about 100
miles from the settlements, we
were astonished at finding that
the Oregonians had reached and
passed it only four days behind
us. Wo had confidently supposed
them four weeks in our rear, and
their rapid progress augurs well
for the success of their enter
prise. On the rock we found
printed:
" 'THE OREGON CO.,

"At Fort Laramie we we-re told
that they were still well provi
sioned when passing there, and
could even afford to trade away
flour, coffee, etc., for necessaries
of other kinds.
"But it was droll to hear how
the Sioux stared at the great
caravans. Some of them on seeing
the great number of wagons, and
particularly white women and
children, for the first time, be
gan to think of coming down
here, having seen, as they sup
posed, 'the whole white village'
move up the mountains."
In opening this series, yester
day, the writer promised, after
the 88 year old news article, some
explanations ot the matters
touched upon. M. C. Field, editor
of the New Orleans Picayune,
was th writer of the article
copied from his newspaper. Cap
tain Stuart headed the hunting
expedition going to the buffalo
country, of which the editor was a
member. Such hunting parties
were not uncommon in those
early days; going Into "the In
dian country" towards the Rock
ies. The Picayune was established
in 18S7. It is stIU being published
now as the Times-Picayune, and
is the greatest newspaper in
Louisiana. Its Sunday edition has
a circulation of over 125,000.

Toung and beautifnl Fanchoa
Meredith leaves Ban Francisco by
airplane to escape arrest la con
nection with a murder t which
her sweetheart. Tony, is impli
cated. She had not known that
ho was a gunman. Evelyn How
ard, whom Fanchoa had met oa
a voyage from Hawaii, Is aboard.
She is enronte to New York to
live with her wealthy aunt, Mrs.
Allison Carstalrs. whom she has
never seen. The plane crashes and
all but Fanchon are killed. Grasp
ing the opportunity to start life
anew, Fanchoa goes to the Car
stalrs homo as Evelyn. Mrs. Car
stairs wins her heart. At South
ampton, awaiting the arrival of
her son, Collin, Mrs. Carstalrs
warns Fanchoa not to take him
seriously. He arrives and accuses
Fanchon of being there under
false pretenses. Collin objects to
"Evelyn." Fsnchon learns that
Evelyn had Indiscreet affairs with
a naval officer and a native. Fan
chon's sincerity in explaining that
"her" indiscretion was only tolly
overcomes Collin's antagonism. A
warm comradship ensues and to
gether they spend a happy sum

one another. He is presented
from confessing his love because
of the blood barrier, and she be

CHAPTER XVII
In November "Evelyn Howard"
made her bow to society. There
was a tea for older people at the
apartment and then a dinner
dance at the Ritz for the young
sters. Her frocks were exquisite,
one white, the other a faint flush
ed pink. Her flowers, orchids
and gardenias, which Collin had
sent. Other flowers filled the
house. The debut was attended
by yards of newspaper chatter and
by new photographs. Fanchon had
fought against the photographs.
But fought helplessly as she could
give no reason why her picture
should not be in the paper.
Very late, the night of the
dance, as the last guests were
leaving, she was dancing with Col
lin. He held her closely, too
closely. He said hoarsely looking
down at the radiant face, the gol
den skin and soft red mouth.
"I can't stand it, Evelyn . . .
"Collin?" she asked, on the
breath of a whisper.
"I hadn't meant to speak. I
swore I wouldn't." he muttered,
"but I can't endure it. You're toe
lovely. Too dear. I love you toe
much. I'll clear out of town as
soon as I can "
the Louisiana territory. The upper
part was set off as Missouri ter
ritory in 1812.

The "gentleman" who accosted
the young lady reading her book
was probably Mr. Field, the editor
himself. The young lady no doubt
became one of the grandmothers
of a prominent pioneer Oregon
family one of the Waldos, Ap
plegates, Fords, Kaisers, Howells,
Hewitts, Looneys, Mathenys, or
a member of some other out
standing family among that com
pany of 1000 members which
broke and marked the old Oregon
trail; making up the first covered
wagon train to cross the plains.
Perhaps she told ot the incident
to her children and grandchil
dren. Who can tell us about this?

The meeting where the officers
of the train were elected was at
the Fltzhugh mill, 12 miles from
Westport. Bancroft says It was
on May 20. Nesmlth said the
18th. Nesmlth was there, and he
was elected orderly sergeant
and ho no doubt had It right
(Nesmlth said the Journey start
ed the 21th.) Peter H, Burnett
was "the young lawyer of some
eminence" of the editor, who was
elected captain. But, after the
"exeltement'' (mentioned by the
editor) over the number of loose
cattle to be permitted to be tak
en. Burnett resigned, aad Wm. J.
was after the train was eight
days out from the starting point.

After the crossing of the Big
Blue river, the train ws divided,
and Captain Martin took charge
ot the "light column" ahead, and
Jesse Applegato was chosen to
lead the divisions keeping in
such contact with each other as
to give them safety from Indian
attacks. All bright Oregon school
childrea know that Jesse Apple
gate's description ot the "cow
column'' Is a classic ot Oregon
literature.

Collin muttered.
"Ah CoHin . . ." she said
again on the breath of a sigh.
Looking down at her, be knew.
He held her to him with a low,
short laugh of triumph. But it
was short lived. He remembered.
They both remembered.
"Happy?" asked Mrs. Carsairs,
as at dawn, she came into Fan
chon's room where Emma was
helping her to undress.
"It was perfect.'' Fanchon told
her, and kissed her in gratitude
and love.
She lay after Mrs. Carstalrs and
Emma had left fingering the
pearls not such a small string
after all . ... which had come to
her from "Aunt Jennie and Col
lin." They slipped through her
tigers, cold and heavy. They were
very beautiful.
Pearls are for tears, she thought
She loved Collin; and he loved
her. He had told her. Happiness
wss like a flame burning through
her and sorrow was like another
flame. Between them she would
be consumed. For it was impossi
ble. He must go away and forget
her; and she, she must go away,
too, out of this FOols' paradise
which she had stolen.
Two daya later sho was enter
ing the apartment A rather shab
by thin man who had been hang
ing about near the doors, despite
the doorman's stern injunction,
watched her dismiss! the car and
walk toward the entrance. He
darted toward her and slipped
something in her hand and cross
ed Fifth avenue against the
lights, running, weaving his way
la aad out ot traffic, a policeman
shouting after him.
Bewildered, Fanchon looked
down at what her hand held. An
envelope small, addressed in pen
cil. She tore it open. Was It a beg
ging letter?
"Come, 'said the note, without
salutation, "to the above address.
X will wait all day tomorrow. Oth
erwise I will go to Mrs. Car
stairs." The address was in Brooklyn.
The signature read . . , "Tony."
Fanchon stood la the pleasant,
quiet apartment house lobby and
read the scrawled note again; and
again. Then she crumpled it in
her hand and walked steadily to
ward the elevator.
Tony had found her at last
Tony had traced her to this little
haven ot peace, and of security.
Tony had traced back to claim
her.
How had ho found out where
She was . . .? under whose name
she was living her enchanted and
threatened existence?
Suddenly, now that he had
struck, now that she knew she
could no longer go on, she was
not afraid. She was cold, chilled
through, with some curious icy
determination that as yet she
could not name. She could face
Tony, she could fight him, she
could ask his terms,"" she could try
to meet them as long as they in

laid sleepless, tortured with the
thought of Collin's love for her
and hers for 'him and Its utter
hopelessness, she was no longer
afraid of Tony.
With this in her heart she went
to the Brooklyn address on the
following afternoon.
It was easy to provide herself
with means snd an excuse for this
minor deception. The Carstalrs
had several ears and two chauf
feurs. Therefore a car and a
driver were always at Fanchon's
disposal. Collin drove -himself as
a rule, in a sleeky shining, long
bodied roadster. Fanchon, too,
had her own car and had learned
to drive it, in the country. It
was now laid up tor the winter.
To go out was easy enough.
She had made a number of
friends, she was inundated with
invitations to day-time affairs,
matinees, teas, luncheons, bridges.
And she went shopping often. Sho
told Jennie, therefore, having as
certained that Mrs. Carstalrs had
an engagement for the afternoon,
that she would like to gc shop

and platinum watch. Not because
she feared for Tony's honesty la
minor matters, but because she
had no idea of the section into
which she was going.
She stopped at the bank and
drew out enough money from her
current account to make up the
sum which Tony had given her.
Little had been spent of it save
for the airplane passage . .a small
sum to the people who had cared
for her since then much aug
mented by her check, sent at Mrs.
Carstalrs suggestions and ' the
sum she had left with the doctor
to take care of Evelyn.
She had the car leave her at a
shop. She waited till the man had
driven away, she then entered the
shop, came out and took a taxi
and went to the Brooklyn address.
There she dismissed the taxi aad
