CapitalJtJournal Salem, Oregon An Independent Newspaper Published Kvery Evening Bacept Sunday Telephone 81 , News 83 (JKOKC.B PUTNAM, Killtor and Publisher BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY TODAY'S CROSS WORD PUZZLE In righteousness shall thou be ettablishcds thou shall be far from opprtssion; for thou shalt not fear: and from ter ror; for it shall not come near thee. Isaiah EDS VD. Another Story? The Corvallis Gazette-Times says there must be a "good inory in connection with the Thopmson shortage in the state treasurer's office or we have lost our sense of smell" oiid then offers to wager that the Capital Journal is "suppress ing" this suppositious story. All of .which is news. There have been several "good stories" in the Thompson case all of which first saw the light of day in the Capital Journal which dug up the first account of the shortage and also the first account, of discovery of the second defalcation. There may be another good story in connection with the case if there is, the Capital Journal will have it, and have it first-, There still remains, unaccounted for, something like $1000 that Thompson confessed to taking, the disappearance of which the employes of the state treasurer's office have been unable to locate. It took them over three months to locate the $3000 second shortage. As the bonding company does not have to pay until the shortage is located, it is up to the grand jury to place its own expert accountants on the treas urer's books and ascertain the facts. This might uncover another story, inasmuch as' Thompson declared under oath that other state employes were as guilty as he. Anyway the public would know what really went on the merry game oft loaning office-holders, including the governor, state funds, without interest. There is still another story in what became of the money for it evidently went in big chunks but that of course is up to Thompson. HORIZONTAL I. To rhonc 7. New (.r.) 8. Single 10. Kycii (pool.) VI.

Preposition (L.) men, mothers and maids A Romantic Serial of Modern Life By IDAH McGLONE GIBSON IN WHICH. EROS FALTERS Lillemay said nothing. But she wondered what these everyday, sane people would say if they knew that laM night the spirits of Kob and herself had met and talked the whole hour through. She epent most of the day in her compartment. She wanted to be alone, to live again that wonderful tivue when she had felt her lover's arms about her and her lips press ed to his. Late In the afternoon she went into the lounge and sat down be hind a screen to write a letter to a school friend. Presently her mother and Har old came in. Evidently they did not see Lillemay. Kef ore she could make her present known they had melted into each other's arms. It was then she decided to keep still. To enow them she had been there during their love csene would be decidedly embarrassing to herself as well as to thorn. 'Dearest," said Harold, "I did not have a chance to tell you last night how sorry I was that you have had so much bad luck in the lost few days.' "Yes, It does look, Harold, as though that deed of Rift 'put the Jinx' on what I had left." "And I advised you, dear Llssa, to make that gift deed." 'Don't worry about it, dear boy We have still enough to live in luxury." Have you told Lrilomay yet that you intend to marry me?" 'No, deer. I had Intended to tell her last night but the news we got from California made me feel it was not the right time to make un announcement of the sort. Be sides I was too tired ta discuss the matter with anyone.' I There was a alight pause. Then Harold In a troubled voice said: "LNsa, don't tell Llllemay yel." The girl behind the screen smil ed sardonically, Harold Kennedy beginning to 'hedge" she thought. "Just as you wish answered her mother meekly, "Hut I thought If we were married immediately on our return to Hollywood, we ought to tell Lillemay before we get there." Thero seemed to be another slight p:iuse before Harold an swered. "Do you think, Llsa, that we had better try to. carry out the plan? I am afraid you will find everything 'at xlxen and cevriia when you get home. Let us wait until you get there and seo how the lnnd lies, before we tell any one. Of course my dear if we were not in a position to see each other at any hour of the day I would in eist upon your becoming my wife Immediately. "Lissa, you have had so little real happiness, I don't want our honeymoon spoiled by oil wells and other business annoyances. When we are married, dear, I want to de vote my time at least for a little while to making you har-pier than you ever dreamed you could be." Lillemay behind the screen thought that her mother's light 1 laugh sounded a little troubled as he said "your idea Is all right, dear boy, but we must be married1 before all those clothes I bought1 In New York go out of style. I have lost so much money I could not afford nnother trousseau." "Darling, you know it is not for your beautiful dresses, that I am marrying you; it is because of your beautiful soul "It Is because of mother's beau lful money." said Lille to herself as the two left the lounge to pre pure for dinner. LUIemay was sure that her plan was going to work. Kennedy was a cad and a scoundrel, was wett ing only to get her back to Holly wood to see If her mother hid enough money left to pay him to marry her. "I'll make him show his hand. I'll make hira disclose his na self to me this very night,'' LUIe may determined. In conformity with that Idea, that night after dinner Lille nay strolled into the observation pl.it form. Here she found Hat old smoking, alone. He made a pluce for her beside him in another easy chair. "i expect you are going to be glad to get back to Hollywood again. Harold the girl said. "Do yo uintond acting for the screen?" "I hardly think so. It is a tils appointing profession at best. I have been hoping to produce some thing, but this catastrophe that has overtaken Ltesa will, I am afraid, make that impossible. she had told me she was willing to back me through a finance company. "Lillemay, I am afraid that LIs- fa does not era 1 lie what has hap pened to her "No. i am afraid she dooer.'t (he girl said to herself cynically.

Dooming Democracy The New York World announces a movement on the part of the McAdoo forces of tho democratic south and west under the two Bryans, William Jennings and Brother Charlie to read , eastern democrats out of the party. The World says: The movement outBpokenly Bcoka to act up n democratic dictator" shin by the pouth And wont and would make It Inipotmihle to nominate any candidate who comes from the state ot New York. New Jersey. Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Illinois or Connecticut. ' Tho abrogation ot the two-thirds rule at democratic national conventions Is the first objection In establishing control of tho west ern-southern bloc which even now la being built up. This attempt is being made despite the offer of the forces supporting Governor Al Smith of New York to withdraw his candidacy for nomination in 1928 if the candidacy of McAdoo is withdrawn, and thus make harmony posible in the party. The democrats are like the Irish, they had rather fight than eat and while there is pleasure in fighting the common enemy, there is much more in fighting each other. So we have the Irish of the east clashing with the Scotch-Irish of the south and west and having a perfectly glorious time in whacking each other, for each is interested far more in the other's defeat than in the common enemy. The democrats cannot hope to win without the east, for the west is naturally republican and the rule or ruin popu listic policy of Bryan spells as it has always spelled, defeat and demoralization for democracy.

Articles not meeting these specifi cations will be rejected. To the Editor: May an ob server Buy a word or two In rcgurd to the proposed head-on parking? A word of criticism, be it known right now. The head-on parking Is a Tory poor way of parking, in the writ tr'a opinion, whue a few Inches per block may b saved, 'tie true, still the average man will not be any more economical of space, whether he has parked the front tire against the curb or the rear ono. Another view of the matter Is that It will multiply accidents. Ik It easier tu vetch out the front of a car and pay close attention to one direction, straight ahead, or i: It simpler to twist the neck and view the rear ot a car, through dirty and dusty pane of glass or celluloid, as like as not, and al lowlug the hubs of the car one U driving, as well as thane of othoi vehicles, to Interlock merrily, dragging the whole lot Into tlir street? ll'ertafnly, I saw It done.)

To the Editor: I consider The Capital Journal the moat fearless newspaper that I nave ever rend and If some of Its courage could be Injected Into the courts of thl state you would see the criminal class soatterlnjr like so many sow bugs when you lift a board and let the light In on them Instead of flocking to this slate to commit their depredations where they - know full well that If they are caught and convicted the trial judge haa a moderate supply of bench parolee ready and ehould he run short Governor Pierce stands ready with an Inexhauit Ible sup.ily already filled out Rome days ago The Journal car ried an article In the Open Forum concerning the woo -begone look of the taxpayer, the very essence and backbone ot any country and It spoka of the privations and self denial that tbey undergo so that government may be maintained. It seems Impossible that Judge Kelly could-reflect for one minute on such an article and then go Into a night session ot court tor the pur pose ot paroling one who had Just been convicted of appropriating thousands of dollars of these peo ple's money for his own use. Judge Kelly mny ease his con science by oskltig that the bonds men made good the loss but bad a less honest and capable man than Tom Kay been In the treaeuror'e office would the people ever have known that they wero being rob ber after this manner?
