Replying to Senator Bower-

in the management of the state
Insane asylum, Superintendent
R. E. Lee Stelner and State
Treasurer Thomas B. Kay, make
these statements:
1 The per capita cost of car-
ing for the insane in Oregon Is
less than in any other state in
the union, except one.
2 The legislative committee v
made only the most superficial
examination of the asylum, and
Its report does not present the
facts.
3 The cost of Vermont mar-
ble used in asylum buildings
was not $12,000, as charged by
Bowerman, but only 11600. s

for the asylum was needed and
the purchase was approved by
members of the legislative com-
mittee.

Neighbors Pleased to Find a Sure
Cure for Skin Afflictions.
"I suffered for eurlit years with what the
doctors called the terra year Itch." Tbli
was Ilk smsll red pimples such as form on
the twt but they burned knd itched. day end
night. Tliene pimples were from my ankles
up, but mostly on my thighs and arms. I
tried doctor after doctor but their medicines
brought no relief. But at last I struck tbe
right treatment this was Cutlcura. C
bought a act of the Cutlcura Remedies Cu
tlcura Soap, Ointment and fills and a few
applications brought relief. When I had used
atout half the set I was nearly cured and after
' using two full sets I was well snd best of ail, I
bars stayed cured.
"About four months ago, our baby began
to be covered with a rash and his head with a
spreading sore. Back of the ears, the flesh
erarked open and the poor baby would
cratch till It bled. Ha worried, cried and
eould not sleep. Then l bought a set of
Cutlcura and with a few applications the
burning and itching ceased, baby stopped
worrying and cuuld sleep. When this single
art kad gone we had no use for any more as
baby was never troubled with the disease

of tbe baby all asked what cured him and

at the conclusion of a defense of him
self and an appeal to the Joint ways
and means committee of the legisla
ture to think deeply before they pass
ed upon the appropriation for the asy
lum. He put $1500 into the hands of
Chairman Albee, saying:
"If your investigation convinces you
that I have squandered a penny of the
state's money and have not used my
best endeavors to fill properly the of
fice I hold then take this money and
use it for some worthy object, let It
go to the Toung Men's Christian as
sociation." One of the most surprising features
of the meeting was the allegation of
Dr. Stelner, made after stepping for
ward and facing Senator Wood, and
repeated on facing Senator Notting
ham, that each of them had spoken
in favor of his purchase of the big red
automobile which formed a feature of
the report of the Joint investigating
committee. Senator Wood made no
reply, but Nottingham entered a has
ty disclaimer. '
"No, no, doctor," he protested, "not
until after you had already purchased
the machine did I say that not until
it was bought.
"I will admit I said after you had
bought it that it might be a wise ex
penditure, said Senator Nottingham,
after a pause.
"I do not wish to accept the re-
snonsibllitv of holding these bonds,"
declared Senator Albee as he handed
them back. "There has been no ques
tion about your integrity, doctor, and
Senator Bowerman paused twice In his
speech In the senate to explain this
You will have a fair hearing from the
senate -and house on this subject, I.
know, and can see no reason why
either house should object to it."
State Treasurer Kay followed Dr. j
Stelner and rjresented figures contra- .
dieting statements of Senator Bower
man and the Investigatmg committee. J
He also asked for fair play on thp
appropriations.
Kay Makes Statement.
"It will be the policy of the board
of control to conduct all Institutions
without a deficit in the next two
years," he stated. "But If you tie our
hands after cutting down the estl- j
mates and unforseen circumstances '
arise and you make it a misdemeanor j
for us to exceed appropriations, we
shallr efuse to accept the Insane
turned over to us by the Judges. We
could not accept them, for there Is
no room at the asylum and If these
people are uncared for It will not be
our fault. We are only the agents
of the people."
Kay spoke of the refusal of the
ways and means committee of the last
session to authorize an appropriation
to furnish the new receiving ward
which has been completed. He as
serted that it had been necessary to
place beds in the corridors of the old
receiving ward and that two or three
beds were placed In every one of the
small rooms.
Shows Bowerman In Error.
On the charge that the asylum had
turned over patients to the school for
the feeble minded, he declared the law
had been followed In every respect,
inasmuch as It permits that imbeciles,
Idiots and feeble minded can be sent
to the Institution. He declared they
could not be returned to the asylum,
because it had reached its capacity.
He also produced figures showing
that the Oregon asylum cost less per
capita to maintain than any other
Institution of Its kind, except me
Georgia asylum, where most of the
patients were colored. He produced
a statement from the architects, show
ing that where Senator Bowerman
had charged that $12,000 had been
spent for marble In the new receiving
ward, only $1600 had been expended.
Figures were also produced to refute
the charge that It cost $1-60 for every
dollar's worth of produce raised on
the farm. Instead these figures as
given In detail to the committee Indl
cAtert a nroflt of mora than 128.000.

land could be obtained without the
owners' trying to hold up the state.
All of the land under options se
cured by Bowerman, wa i examined
by the legislative committee and up
on some of It was discovered a build
ing site which the committee con
siders exactly up to the requirements.
There Is the special committee of
physicians who visited the site a

Senator Bowerman's site for an
asylum near Pendleton will not be
approved by the committee of physi
cians appointed to inspect it, unless
the members change their minds by
the time they hold a meeting with
the legislative committee, says the
Portland Journal.
The Daniels farm, approved bf
Governor West and State Treasurer
Tom Kay, is the site approved by the
physicians, who last week inspected
both the Oliver-Carpenter tract
bought by Bowerman while acting
governor and the site farther down
the Umatilla river, which Bowerman
did not select.
When Drs. Andrew C. Smith, J. F.
Catbreath, W. T. Williamson and
Harry Lane, in company with State
Engineer John Lewis, looked at the
Bowerman site for the eastern Ore
gon branch asylum, their experience
in caring for the insane, coupled with
the state engineer's technical know
ledge, led them to the unanimous
opinion. It Is said, that Bowerman
might have chosen more wisely. It
Is said that the committee will urge
the choosing of the Daniels farm as
a site for the branch asylum, and that
an Informal report to this effect has
already been filed with the governor.
Spleadid Building Site Found.
Statehouse, Salem, Ore., Jan. 31.
When the special committee ap
pointed by the legislature to Investi
gate an asylum site In Eastern Ore
gon makes its report the report will
say:
The committee found a suitable site
and also a suitable building base for
a building 1000 feet long.
Whether this building base was
found on the site selected by Jay
Bowerman or not remains to be seen.
It is whispered here that the build
ing site was not on the tract of Bow
erman, but on another.
Five tracts of land were carefully
examined by the special committee.
This committee consists of Senators
Ilean and Chase and Representatives
Bryant, Bonebrake and Mann. Part
of the committee returned to the
statehouse this morning, after an ab
sence of five days, during which the
Eastern Oregon branch asylum situ
ation was thoroughly gone into. The
committee was accompanied by a civ
il engineer who worked on one of
the railroads In the Deschutes valley.
A report from the engineer will be
received by the committee tomorrow
and upon Its arrival Senator Chase
will prepare the report of the com
mittee. Chase was the closest friend
Howerman had on the committee and
had voted for Bowerman for presi
dent of the senate against Selling.
Almost at the time Selling named
Chase on the committee he was con
versing with Bowerman.
There Is an unconfirmed story that
the report of the committee from the
legislature will uphold the stand
taken by Governor West and State
Treasurer Kay. These state officers
did not find fault with Bowerman's
selection nor the price paid, but held
that upon the 820 acres Bowerman
had chosen there was not one base
large enough for a large building.
There were many places on the tract
which would accommodate reason
ably large buildings, but for a build
ing 1000 feet long there was no suit
able base, owing to the peculiar
character of the ground. Bowerman
had, however, caused his real estate
man to take up options on many
other tract around Pendleton so

"Third: The Oregon State Federa

Spokane, Wash. To commemorate
one of the bravest acts of heroism In
the history of the American navy,
the torpedo boat destroyer Monaghan
win be launched at Newport News,

the destroyer will be a sister of the
brave ensign who lost his life while

April 1, 1899.
Ensign John Robert Monaghan was
a Spokane boy. He lost his life In an
engagement with the Samoans near
Apia, Samoa, April 1, 1899, In which
seven members of an allied force of
107 British and American sailors and
marines lost their lives, three of the
seven being officers, ills death' was
due to his determination to stand by
his wounded comraae, Lieutenant
Philip V. Lansdale, U. S. N., who
commanded the American detachment
of 59 men. When last seen alive he
was defending his wounded comrade
single-handed against a horde of sav
ages. In the official report of the
fight Captain White of Philadelphia,
said:
"Ensign Monaghan stood stead
fastly by his wounded superior and
friend one rifle against many, one
brave man against a score of savages.
He knew he was doomed. He could
not yield. He died In the heroic per
formance of his duty."
A monument to his memory, erect
ed by the citizens of Tils native state,
Washington, stands In a public thor
oughfare. It was unveiled October
5, 1906.
James Monaghan of Spokane, fath
er of the late Ensign Monaghan, re
ceived the following message from
George Von L. Meyer, secretary of
the navy, and his eldest daughter.
Miss Eleanor R. Monaghan, will
christen the torpedo boat destroyer
February 18.
"The torpedo boat destroyer Mon

the late Ensign John It. Monaghan,
