Ander son was speaking before the University Press Club at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Anderson charged that this propaganda which editors and reporters joined in . spreading was ill advised and dangerous in its effect upon Democratic institutions, says the report in Editor and Pub lisher, which'Snmmarizes briefly Anderson's comments: . "Such propaganda began with tho aenata'a oil lnyestlgatlon and its Inquiry Into aetlritiee of the Department of Justice. For ten years congress has been the chief guardian of the publle , during which" time the press .has taught the publle to ridicule its -defender' ' " ''..' Undoubtedly a great deal of the criticism heaped npon congress was inspired for partisan purposes, or to protect individuals in, their reputations, positions; privileges or in fluence. At the same time congress did push "investigations" to an absurd extermity, until its function seemed to not be that of & legislative body but an inquisitorial grand jury. In such capacity' it did excellent work both in the oil inquiries, campaign fund investigations, etc. ,But the delays of con- ': strife and quarrels, its factional spirit, its; hostility often- "ifmpa nnin.fiftfltw1.tn tru iYPftifivft havt rkPon factors1 -.tvliten have merited a great deal of the criticism which has come upon it. .

If some members are subject to crit icism: for their zeal to protect big business, others have gone to the other extreme! joining in raids on the treasury in order to win votes Both arej reprehensible. : ; This newspaper has. criticized the congress on occasion, and will do-so again; However we have also defended that v body against xnany charges: and Complaints which we felt v unwarranted ; particularly praising ita.work during the last session.

S S Reverting to history: Tbo men tion In the letter ot Mrs. -Raymond, in which she said' Rev. O. Dickinson "preached his first ser mon ... in the OLD SCHOOL HOUSE that faced north on tbo corner of Commercial and Mar- rion streets, on the lot Chat Fath er ciaggett built on afterwards, gave the certain clew leading out ot the labyrinth ot baxy hearsay concerning two mooted points of early day Salem history. How sot W V Well, "Father CUggett" waa Charles Ciaggett. early day pio neer, grandfather of U. S. Sena tor and U. S. Judge Charles L. sad John H. McNary. And Charles Ciaggett was thrifty and inde pendent and would not have built on a lot be did not own. A search ot the deed records disclosed that the state of Oregon (school fund) deeded to Charles Ciaggett lots 1 sad 2. block II, Salem. The state had secured these lots by foreclosure of a mortgage of T. B. Rickey. Both Instruments were recorded March 11, 1892. S Fact 1: Lot 1 of that block is opposite Marion square, oa the southwest corner of Marion and Commercial streets. Therefore, the First Congregational eharch was organized Jaly 4, 1852. in the OLD SCHOOL HOUSB that stood on that corner, facing north. Fact 2: That was the first school house built in Salem, in 1850. 'outside of the Indian manual labor school of the Leo mission, built in 1840- 41, that became the Oregon In stitute in 1844, and, January 12, 1853, was chartered as Willam ette university by the Oregon ter ritorial legislature meeting in basement rooms ot its own build ing. . Rickey, who waa an early day postmaster, got the two lota, 1 and 2 by deeds as follows: No. 1, from Wm. England, Jan. T, 1863; No. 2, . from . Hugh Thompson, samel date. (Continued tomorrow.)
