It Is not at all surprising Eberhart wired to his friend ex-Judge Gllliland a denial of the Cooley Kasy to state ment published Jude Tlieni. yesterday. For Eber hart to publicly admit the truth of Mr. Cooley'a statement would mean for him to confess openly be Is guilty of a felony, for It Is a crime to corrupt a county court and conviction means the penitentiary. As the matter stands upon this point it is a question of veracity be tween A. B. Cooley, reliable farmer and staunch republican, and A. E. Eber hart. who carried on operations here that may properly be defined by use of the word swindle. It won't be hard for people to judge between those two men. It is ridicu lous to assume Mr. Cooley or any sane man would have made the statement he made under oath unless it were the truth. The great revolt in the republican party in IS 12 came about because the progressive element The Lines Are under Roosevelt re Ilalnly Irawn. sented the domina- j tlon of the party by the standpat bosses and their hench men. Following the grilling they received at the general election two years ago It would have been wisdom for the old guard to have stepped aside and al lowed the party to set itself right with the people. But in Oregon there has ben no at tempt to do this. The same old bunch Is In control. The former Taft chair man la the Wlthycombe chairman and Withycombe bewails the defeat of "that great statesman, Taft." Withycombe under the course he has chosen to follow represents all that the standpatters want He is the champion of assemblyism and of Chi nese labor. He favors a "harmony" policy with the legislature which would be pleasing to legislators but would be fatal to taxpayers. Withy combe follows the guide of the Port land Oregonian the spokesman of privilege and reaction In the north west. Aside from those who wear the ftandpat collar no republican Is under the Miphtest obligation to vote for Withycombe. In fact progressive re publicans cannot support him except through a direct sacrifice of all their former principles. A vote for Withycombe 1 a vote to turn back the clock on political pro t:rens and reform. "Vot'er ctraight" in the slogan of the standpatters. That appeal is an insult to the intel ligence of voters. I'eople long ago learned that good citizenship does not consist In follow ing any such advice. That plea is in tended for yokels and men and wom en of sense have Just reason to re tent Ks use upon them. In this tate It is a particularly un fortunate time for republicans to howl for straight ticket voting. At the head of their ticket they have as M'tiutot'lul candidate a man who has three times been before the federal courts on charges of fraudulent work, once under criminal indictment. One of his ruses is still In the courts. . Their candidate for governor Is a ;an who has mude a pitiful spectacle of himself in the campnttrn, has given ct nvlnelng proof he Is less capable than Ma opponent, Tr, Fmtth, and is x holly out of touch with the progres sive thought of the state. In making an appeal for the votes of women Booth workers have mado the false claim their P-ootli Opposed man was an advo- Suffrage. cate of equal suf frage. The facts are that In the state senate Booth opposed suffrage as he did all other reform measures. B. F. Jones who was In the house when Booth was In the senate has exposed the Booth claim with the fol lowing statement: "Now let us see what B. A. Booth's record is on women's suffrage. At the 1907 session of the legislature 1 introduced house Joint resolution No. 18, amending the constitution to pro vide equal suffrage. On February 8, 1907, the resolution passed the house by a vote of 81 to SI. On the 11th day of February, 1907, the said reso lution came up in the senate and was defeated by a vote of 20 to 7. R. A. Booth was one of the 20 senators who voted against this resolution. See senate Journal, 1907, at page 369." There are two Smiths on the ballot j for governor, this year. Dr. C. J. Smith, democratic nominee Two Smith!! and W. J. Smith, so On the Ballot clalist nominee. Both are from Multnomah county. In voting Tuesday make sure you make your cross between the name and number of Dr. C. J. Smith. Dr. Smith's name comes first upon the ballot and his number of 22. The number of the socialist nominee Is 23. Keep this In mind and do not confuse the two candidates. KESTAritAXT FOrXPED BY ANDREW HANCOCK CLOSED HIMD HEAD OF SCHOOLS EMUS TUG METHODS It.

L. R. Alderman made the state ment yesterday at the Institute that of western coast cities Portland Is taking some of the most active steps toward scientific and systematic teaching within the public schools ot the country. In Portland, he said, all opportunity possible was given the teachers to be come thoroughly acquainted witn their pupils, having Introduced the very popular method of "Rotation of Teachers," In which each teacher passes from grade to grade with her pupils. A musical school is being developed in which all pupiLs with musical tal ent are given an opportunity to devel op, and an art scnool in wnicn tnose Interested In art may develop their talents. Foreign languages are being taught In the grades, and sewing and laundering is Included In the domestic science, together with all phases of housework. A printing press has been estab lished and all advantages possible are being extended for the development of the coming generations. Parents', meetings are being held, and teachers and parents discuss to gether the habits and character ot the child, that all means possible might be extended for the develop ment of clean habits. "Community Assets."' John G. Kllpack gave an address on Your Community s Greatest As set." Mr. Kllpack is district visitor of the Boys and Girls' Aid Society ot Portland and declares that after six years spent In Investigating the caus es of dependency ana delinquency among children when the home fails to live up to Its responsibilities and leaves the child at the mercy of the community the latter Instead of being a protector or guardian. Is too often a contributing factor In accomplish ing the downfall of Its youth. He began with the question, '"What Is your community's ricnest asset?" declaring that If this question should be propounded to the people Individ ually a great variety of answers would probably be forthcoming. Doubtless they would point to their cattle or their grain and while he declared, "I am quite willing to concede to you that these assets are rich tn a mone tary value and that their conserva tion should be rigorously guarded; yet I claim that we have a far richer asset, that cannot be valued by any thing so material as dollars and cents. It Is the child of today, the man asid woman of tomorrow." He emphasized that it Is of far greater Importance that a mental and physical test Is applied to those who wish to enter the holy state of mat rimony and assume the duties and responsibilities that come with par enthood, than that a literacy or men tal test should be applied to those from other lands who desire to enter this country. He de clared that "the welfare of the state demands that children shall be well born and well-bred and not until we give them this right will there be a decrease in the number of children who are filling our institutions and becoming dependent upon public an- private philanthropy." Bringing the question a little clos er home, he continued, "Are we pro viding the children of our eastern Oregon towns and villages with a clean, healthy environment, which will later show Its result in law-abiding, character-making citizenship? Are we doing our best to beautify our town or village, not only physically but morally, so that w-e have some thing worth offering and can attract to our community a home-loving, home-making class of people? It is an unpleasant statement to nave to make?" he declared, "that there are communities In eastern Oregon Into which I would be loath to have to go and live and raise children on account of the low moral tone and unfavorable environment." He asserted that the social atmos-, S the youth today Is very largely in fluenced, if not wholly dominated, by the commercialized amusement world, and continued to inquire, "Are the arents, teachers, city officials and others of your community, who should have the welfare of your children at heart, looking to It that only pictures nd plays that are clean, wholesome nd uplifting ore presented to me hlldren who frequent your theaters hat no dances are permitted which re not carefully regulated and sup rvlsed, and that everything Is be ns done that can ne aone to bbib- rufrd childhood?" It conclusion he emphasized the Importance of every teacher being an earnest student of mich problems as heredity and environment, which are Interwoven with the life of every ch'll, declaring that we might rest nfsured that most of the all-Important questions will be simplified ani perhaps solve themselves If we are fo'lowlng the great principles of love and service. "May we always remember," he concluded, "that to help a boy or girl Is the greatest thing In the worlfl for the arc our community's richest Hset. At one and the name tlm you are helping not only the chill but the man or woman the community th'- vih'-le world and yourself.'' "Anelo-Saon Grit." Thursday evening Maynard Lee Daggy of the Lyceum Bureau, gave a splendid and entertaining lecture In the public auditorium of the local high KChool. His subject was "Anglo Sax. n Orlt," and the theme was II luMrated with humorous and interest ing unt-ctodtes throughout the count of the- evening. He reviewed the Saxons from the time of Julius Caesar until the pres ent day, emphasising their remark abio btaylng qualities and determina tbn; and how, through them so many rcuntr'.cj have been colonized and cIvlMirJ. He compared Europea.i cond.tiors with thosi of the United S'.ates, 'vhich he used as a model out- come of "Angle-Saxon" perseverance, ana or the people of these natlo.is. developing the peculiar characteristic of the different nationalities, In cus tom, thought, and action. He used Abraham Lincoln as an example of "Anglo-Saxon Grit," and determination, showing what he had accomplished, and developing the characteristics of this reverenced leader, In regard to humor, firmness of purpose, Individuality, oratory and personal qualities. Egypt Is Xot In Mutiny. LONDON, Oct. 30. Official denial was given In London to the report sent out from Berlin October 27 that there had been sanguinary encounters between the British garrison and In dlan troops at Alexandria. Egypt, and that a courtmartlal there had sen tenced 30 men to death. This German report, said to be rrom official sources, was declared to be an entire fabrication, the best proor of which was In the fact that no Indian troops are stationed In Alexandria. ii MU1B German Cargo Arrives.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIM I TO THE VOTERS I OF UMATILLA COUNTY: f Ladtcs and Gentlemen: The campaign of 1914 Is drawing to a close. I entered the race as a can didate for the legUlature at the urgent request of demo cratic and republican frlendu with whom I have been ac quainted many years. I was not solicited to enter the race for partUan political reasons but purely, as my friends un sure me, fur buxlnexs reas ons. We all know how rap Idly taxes have Increased the pant ten years. If they con tinue to Increase at the same ratio for another ten years we simply can not stand It. The fault, as I see It, lies In legislative extravagance, ex cessive appropriations, the rreatlon of useless and ex pensive commissions, cureless and lux methods of conduct ing official business, graft, and other things all of which can be corrected and great relief had for the tax-payers by an honest, economical legislature. We simply must begin to use the legislative pruning knife, cut down expenses, abolish useless of fices and hundle the people's money us a careful businessman would handle his own money. We all know that niorul conditions are better; that less crime U committed; that expenses In conducting courts by reason of lean crime are no longer burdensome; hence, relief must come, If at all. from the legislature. One of my opponents, Mr. J. T. Illnkle has al ready been In the legislature, and his record does not show that he did anything or attempted to do anything for the Teller of the tax-pu)er. If he had done anything In the legislature, or had attempted to do anything, for the benefit of the taxpuyers,. farmers, and the people generally, I certainly w ould not be in this race against him. If I am elected to the legislature and do not return home with a good, clean record of honest service In behalf of the tux-payers, farm ers, and people generally I shall certainly never ask a re-election. I have lived here In Umutllla County neurly forty years. I have worked hard und my life Is an open book. I am not ashamed of It In any munner. I have been temperate in all things and have al ways been ready to give my fellowman a square deul. I have been president of the Umatilla County Good. Rouds Association for six years and have always advocated good roads at the lowest possible expense for every portion of the county. I have been a farmer all of my life and I am certainly vitally Interested In the welfare of the farmers. I am al.to interested In the welfare of. all persons who are endeavoring to be good citizens. My home is here among you. My Interest Is your interest; my welfare Is your welfare; I make and spend my money here; have built my permanent home In I'endlcton, and will continue to live in Umatilla County the rest of my life. Be ing a large tax-payer myself, I have felt the burden of taxation. 4 All tax-payers realize the burden of high taxation and it Is high time that the tax-payers become interested in the subject of lower taxation, and I have no other object In being a candidate for the legislature than to try to bring relief to the tax-payers generally. I earnestly solicit the support of the voters of Umatilla County and will appreciate every vote that Is cast for me. When I am elected to the legislature I mall want to keep In close touch with the furmers. businessmen, laboring people and tax-payers generally In order that I may be of good service to the people and muke a good clean record as a legislator. 1 My number on the ballot is 64.
