To the Kditor: In The Capital Journal of the JititU Inst., an arti cle, "Seeking to Disqualify Kay," coutains the following; "Dr. Slaughter, employed aa a special field investigator for the state laud board by Coventor Pierce and Blate Treasurer Myer, waged h.i active fight upon Mr. Kay during the campaign In which the latter was elected." Permit me to say that this state ment would he interesting If true, fortunately it is not. I made uo active fight against Mr. Kay at any time during the campaign, and no fight against Kay, active or otherwise, while I was employ ed by the state land board. This brings me to the "he also address ed letters to Mr. nay threatening to expose alleged irregular sale of supplies to state institutions, but the letters were Ignored and the expose was never made.' The least that can be said about this is that U is a deliberate false hood, as a perusal of the letter to Mr. Kay (copies of which are at tached hereto) will show. Dr. Slaughter made no threata, but did ask questions. It Is true that Mr. Kay Ignored the letters na Jt was expected Ik? would. It is the opinion of those hciiuainted with the facts that Mr. Kay felt sure that n truthful nu liwer t tl,e questions would de feat him, and it is also believed that ho feared to Hiiswcr falsely lest evidence be produced to refute bis answers. Again, "two years ago Di Slaughter charged Dr. H. K. L. Hteiner, superintendent of the slate hospital, with using his of fice for personal gain, and Dr Kleiner laid the charges before the Krand Jury which, alter an inverni gation declared them lo be un founded." This is another false hood, as I never at any time made nny charges again: t Dr. It. IS. '.ce Kleiner, and tuo grand jury never irade anv hih-Ii report as Plated by The Capital Journal, as the report of tho grand jury, which Th.' Journal never published, wih show. However, I did ask mime questions (copy of same herewith attached) but Di"- Meinor, like Mr. Kay. failed U answer the ques tions, all of which had to do with his acts while superintendent of the stato hospital. Why are both Di. Stelnor and Mr. Kay unwilling to answer imwtinns that deal ex clusively with their actions, while thev are serving the state of Ore gon In official positions? Have we returned to the time when Hie 'king (politician) can do no wrong?" For years, t nnve remaitu.l quiet, while bolus subjected t' deliberate misrepresentation by newspapers and would continue In do so, if it were only a matter of myself, but when such misrepre sentations are resorted to seem ingly for the purpose of prejudic ing the public mind and laying the foundation for a miscarriare of justice. 1 miKt Insist that 'he falsehoods he repudiated by the newspapers that have made them. I have no desire to escape Just crltcism. but 1 do nU fnr fair plnv I,rt evlllcsiu he based upon farts is all I nsk or desire, and this I must Insist upon. . Sf.M'tiHTICR. Ralem. Or. Dee.

To tho Kditor: There Is ouv problem not only lor tho people of tho United States to solve, hut for tho whole world, and this one problem above all othera has been .1 isc tissed more than any other subject, that concerns the human race, and yet it is as far from a solution as It was ages ago. 1 re fer to the liquor problem. I wih that every man and every woman would lay aside all hope oi earthly gain long enough for problem to be solved once and (n all time, for the wet and the dry element a must come together as of one mind before a solution can bo found that will be aatisfactory to all concerned. I'p to this time this problem has just been, a see-saw game, and nev will he settled permanent as long as t lie radical element that luu an axe t i grind personally is In con trol of the dry or tho wot side of this controversy. In starting in to solve this pro!), lein It see ind to me that a few thought should he taken into con sideration by all, regardless of our belief at this time on the liquor question, and tho most Important uf these nre that according to our .oiiHtKiition a majority rules. And that not many years ago a major ity allowed liquor to be legally sold, and we collected a revenue from (tie sale of said liquor to help maintain the cxpeuses of our gov ernment. Next, we must take Into cont'd erat ion fu solving this problem, that much mad seed waa sown dtir iug this time thnt we were col lecting this revenue from the sale of liquor, for not only did men, women nnd children learn during (tint time to love the effects of liquor, but thousands of unborn babies we re imbibed with the ippetito as well. lu soving this problem It Is has that we let the radical drys or :l e radical wets continue In control of tho law enforcement cud of thb controversy, for personal gain they keep the public confused in trvuig to cover up one nnthers iautts, or Is It best that this liquor problem he handled In a manner that will not cause crltieimn from either the wet or the dry element. The reader of this article may have formed an opinion that thh; liquor problem will never be solved if it requires that the wets nnd the d:vs come to an understand ing native to this liquor proposi tion. Hut such readers are mU taken T nru jure, but we all mu.t ho taught to see this problem alike our ulssses must be fitted by the tuiiua optician and our object to help solve this problem must be prompted b; a desire to help mnlio amends for the past smmI that was sown while we were col lecting a revert"? from the sale of liquor. ril.I, R.

Why Is It, so many of the young folks no sooner bare "obtained the prise," than they are seeking a separation? And as soon as that has been granted they have, in many cases, "eyed" out their next victim even before they have been dragged into the divorce courts? Not even Solomon, 1 believe, in all his wisdom could define this- If all married people would take the two beoiB Into their home "bear" and "forebear" and gat better acquainted before they em bark upon the matrimonial sea in the proper way, there would be loss unr at and fewer divorces. The marriage vows are too soon for- l l4 i, "till life and death do us part," aud "what Uod hath joined toget' er let no man put asunder." We don't often bear a sermon preached from these lat words. It will soon be a problem for children to determine their own "real' brothers and sisters. It seems that girls will suffer almost anything before ending their days in a state of celebecy. I have heard girls exclaim, "Oh, anything but an old maid' and that "rtythlng" often spells Bhamo before a husband is lauded, out are apparently better satisfied even then than If they had gone to their graves "unkempt, unmar ried' and "unsun."

Girls, don't make yourselves cheap in the eyes of the youtj: men Adorn yourselves with mod esty (woman's chief charm) and some dignity, instead of lipstick and paint, and don't accept every proffered car ride and especially if you don't know the car driver. Try it girls and se if the young men will not have a higher regard for you, and I am persuaded there will be a fewer number obliged to wase a fight after dark but upon a lone country road, or left to wend their way home alone. Speaking of one-hand drivers, I have an opportunity of seeing some such drivers, and I have nev er seen one of the "sweet dears' yjt make any protest, but look as if they were transfigured and nev er wished to be disturbed. So don't put all the blame on the "driver. Again, what we need are mothers and fathers to set a good precept or rather example.
