In dication that tha atoraa, -which at times reashad tha proportions of n bllx sard in tha high country; has passed. But getting back to the sub ject. The item to which ve have reference appeared under the heading "Bourbons Count Upon Damb Vote. It carries a Cam bridge date line and quotes the assistant secretary of .navy . as saying "that the democratic party is wagering everything on its the ory that there are not enough thinking voters in this country to elect a president." No truer statement was ever made. Soma of tha capitol newshoaads are wondering just whom Charles P. Pray was referring to in a let ter he wrote conceding an in mate of the Oregon State hospital. In- it he referred to the patient writing- anonymous letters and I -articles, and he added "I know several newspapermen here wha write much worse staff than that without any reason at all." Ieslie Scott, chairman of the state highway commission, likes Marion coonty. We were sitting across the table from him lata Wednesday when he was sign ing leases. One came from Mar ion county, and he replied, I would sign anythisg from Mar ion coonty. When asked why, he said Marion was like Mult nomah in getting tha worst in highway work' in proportion to money spent, and that he liked Salem. Of coarse ho pat as, your correspondent and colleagues, in a had light. Al Lindbeck aaid he couldn't have meant him be caose he didnt write. The rest of ns could only protest one tiling not that what was writ ten might be nrach worse than an Insane man could dobut the statement that we wrote for no reason at all. Bat Char lie only replied that if onr rea son was financial remuneration, we were obtaining money trader false pretenses. Gosh, what kind of a reply can one make to that? We quit tho discussion. The state highway commission this week act a new record in the awarding of contracts, and the work was done fast and quietly. The engineering staff is swamped in getting out, specif (cations, but the memDers are going, at it wholeheartedly, and this in si&te of salary reductions. 8urely a big hand is due Sam Baldock and his erew. J. W. Maloney, candidate against Rufns Holman for the Job as state treasures was a visitor at the capitol yesterday and while hero made the best of his time in making acquaintances. Maloney says he will be here after next January so naturally wanted to lay the groundwork for his ac qualntanceship. The secretary of the highway commission even went so far as te ignore a severe cold to go to Portland to read the bids, i take down the activities of the commission and do much to di rect its program. We are refer ring to Herbert Glaisyer. Bat he did not go unrewarded. In a package delivered to him at the meeting In which were some cough drops and life savers, from si eenrce unknown), was ' this poem: "Cough drops, so tho advertise ments say. Have helped many a voice to stay And carry on suck noble work As reading until prices for re moving dirt; About a year ago Ralph Cow gill, of the Oregon State Game commission, promised the news Bounds some fine salmon. Dar ing m year in which he failed to produce he was often "ribbed" abont bis promise. Bat he came through this week with a ven geance.
