TUESDAY, MAY 23, 1922; THE CAPITAL JQURNAL, SALEM, OREGON PAGE FOUR Capitaifournal Salem, Oregon An Independent Newspaper, Published every evening except Sunday, Telephone 81; newg 82 GEORGE PUTNAM, Editor and Publisher A Newspaper Ku-Kluxed As a newspaper without the courage of its convictions, prepared to support a yellow dog on any kind of . a platform provided it is tagged with the party label, the Portland Ore gonian, anticipating Mr. Hall's success in the primaries, declares for him and bouyantly hopes that in case of his election there will be "no, 'proscription against any class or group or party of American citizens." ' ' But Mr. Hall was candidate of those pledged to racial and religious persecution, sought their endorsement and wel comed their support. He declared for the program of the self styled "patriotic societies" captained by the "Exalted Cyclops" of the Ku Klux Klan, and received their vote to a man. His candidacy openly and f launtingly represented the menace of invisible' government. To expect anything else than racial and religious discrimination in case of Hall's election is childish hoping against hope. If the Republican party in Oregon has been ku-kluxed, the Oregonian is also willing to be ku-kluxed, to be "regu lar." It will also raise the banner of invisible govern ment and trust to luck. Too cowardly to help purge the party of the poison that is paralyzing it, it is prepared to meekly swallow the poison itself and .trustingly hope for the best. As an epitath to Governor Olcott, now that the time is past when a good word will do him any good in his cam paign, the Oregonian adds as an after thought: Mr. Olcott has been governor for over three years, after long service as secretary of state. None know the state's affairs-better, few so well. He may be lacking in certain qualttes of aggressive leadership, but his deficiencies there if they are deficiencies are abundantly offset by an exceptional intelligence, a sincere devotion to the public welfare, a complete understanding of the state's concerns, a decent regard for the opinions of others, an unselfish and commend able policy of getting the best available men In the public employ. He is an honest man, a poor hater, with no entangling political alliances. He is no demagogue. That is something a good deal In these times. From these few kind words, presumbably spoken over a dead one, the real opinion of Governor Olcott entertained by the Oregonian is apparent yet the Oregonian did not have the courage to help make Olcotfs nomination a cer tainty to retain in office 'this "honest man" and defeat an adventurer and a demagogue and thereby prevent the rape of the republican party by the Ku Kluxers. Too cowardly to openly oppose the menace of the K. K. K.tthe Oregonian was also too craven to uphold the hands of the governor in his effort to preserve constitutional government. With timidity and pusillanimity never before exhibited in its long history, the Oregonian ignored principle and person in its impossible effort to secure party harmony by abjectly surendertng to those who would establish an in visible government of bigotry and intolerance through the capture of the "grand old party," on sixteenth century issues.

Happiness is merely a matter of having a good time without going into debt for it. Your mind will improve faster if you stop argu ing and begin to discuss. It is often the case that women who pretend to be shocked are really delighted. How to get a raise is the male problem; how to keep thin, the female.

I just drifted, I caught my breath at the thrill of the touch of her hand I drank into thirs ty eyes her fragile beauty and as I always have done I drifted out to sea with never a thought of where I should land. . Long sunny afternoons, spent on the winding river with the long gray festoons of moss which hung from the cypress trees al most touching our heads and mak ing Blowly dancing shadows on the water's mirror, were ours. Nature was weaving her spell, Jim, the old, old spell which she has been perfecting since the gar den of Eden days. And I, well 1 did not try to resist, even though I knew it was all so impossible. Day after day we would take a jandwlch or two'and start out for a mid-day picnic, because I, by doctors' orders, had to be back be fore the twilight shadows fell. As usual, she did most of the talking. I did not realize that was taciturn, for I was happy and I knew that she was happy also. One day my thoughts had gone astraylng into impossible conjec tures when suddenly I was. brought back from my day-dream and realized that she had asked me a question, to which I was giv ing the same sterotyped answer I had given to a number she had asked before: "I do not know." , It was then that she raised hei eyes to mine and asked coquetish ly, "What do you know, "Harry?' Without volition without thought, I blurted out the thought I had kept concealed In the secret fairyland where men and worn en, too hide their unspoken de sires: "I only know I love you love you with my whol being love you, love you, unttl I know nothing else!" The next moment I felt her yielding body In my arms and then, for me the world stood still while heaven opened to my sight. I came back to earth at tht sound of her voice.- She had been murmuring things 'with her lipt close to my' ear but this sentence arrested my attention. It had end ed in the word: "marriage." I felt' myself suddenly grow cold. What had marriage to du with love? In all sincerity I ask ed myself this astonishing ques tion. To me, up to that time, they were two wholly unrelated things. The'girl Doris, as you know ot course began to talk about out marriage as the natural. sequence of love. I was almost overcome wtih the sudden change In the sit uation. I cannot write the truth, Jim, without saying some things a gen tleman does not usually say about his wife. But I shall not elabor ate on those unpleasant thing, further than the case requires.' Ti paraphrase an age-old epigram: "De femina, 11 nisi bonum." At that time yes even then I tried to be a little wee bit sane. I tried to tell Doris that I loved her too much to saddle myself up on her; a man who had hardly enough money to care for himself a man who, probably had only a short time to live. She answered that she did not care for money. Oh, love, love, what lies have been told, and sin: committed In your name; "If you live but a few months Harry," she pleaded, "give me tht sad privilege of making the rest of your life as comfortable and at happy as I can. I have a little money and we can live here for the time in which we will come to know whether It Is life or deatii BILIOUSNESS SICK HEADACHE, call for an Hi Tablet, (a vegetable aperient) to too sod trenctben the organs of digeatJoa and Urol cation.

Campbell It is a notion with George McMajjus, famous cartoonist and creator of "Bringing Up Father" that an artist should be versatile in the arts. That he who works his effects with words should pick tip the sculptor's chisel now and then; that the' sculptor and the man who lives by brush or pencil should pour out his message in music if he can. In the snapshot reproduced here he is putting his theory Into practice on the bass horn. The picture was taken on the deck of the Homeric, the ship which la hearing him to Ireland -where he proposes to buy a coun try estate and absorb, for a season out of every year, the joys of Irish life and scenery from beneath the security of his own roof tree. A harp perhaps would have been the ideal instrument with which to express in melody the sentiments of an artist about to gain himself a retreat in Irish hills. Lacking one, McManus horrowed a brass horn from the Homeric's band, and told the world in deep notes that he was on his way to the isle of the 'banshees and druids. McManus is a better than indifferent player on several instru- meats; he can more than hold his own at the piano, and has filled in with fiddle music now and then when he was among friends and finished art was not excepted. He surprised the bandsmen on the ship because he could play on brass at all. AH artists hav their special vanities. The tribe of -brass players insist that one not born with the brass gift can never be educated to it. McManus will be away until the end of July and will devote his stay in Ireland to inspecting a half dozen out of some score of coun try places which have heen offered for his consideration.. for us. For, Harry, if you go I know that I shall follow. "If you regain your health It will be very easy for you to regain your footing in the world of busi ness." Her words were comfort and baltai to a troubled soul and a sick body. She made me feel that she was right. It's very easy to con vince a man of that of which he wishes to be convinced. And, still drifting, I was con vinced completely. The faults in her logic I did not then see or seeing I refused to heed. One afternoon we slipped away and were married. .
