A CH ALLENGE TO MR SELLING
THAT HE DARE NOT ACCEPT.
U ITE frequently in business life
it happens that through tnisrep
resentation or deceit a person
is led into doing something that he
would not do if he had known the truth.
(juite often it has happened that a
person has bought a piece o f property
or something else o f value because of
such misrepresentation or deceit.
Sometimes the victim only goes so
far aa to promise to do certain things
and learns of the misrepresentation be
fore the transaction ia completed.
In the latter case he naturally refuses
to carry the transaction through regard
leas o f his promise to do so. He does
not feel it dishonorable or dishonest to
refuse to carry out in business life a
promise secured through misrepresenta
tion. Neither does the world hold any
disrespect for the man who repudiates
a promise secured in that manner. It
would likely consider him a fool i f he
did not refuse to carry through such an
unfair bargain regardless of the coax
ing, urging and cajoling on the pnrt of
the one who would benefit by the trans
action.
It should be reasonable to apply the
same rule to polities.
Through plausible misrepresentation
on the part of The Oregonian, which
claimed that Selling had enough votes
pledged to him to insure his election,
when that paper knew that he did not,
and through misleading claims on the
part o f Mr. Selling, several votes were
secured for the Selling speakership can
didacy. Several other votes were proci
ised on the condition that he already
had a majority.
Those who promised their votes con
ditionally certainly should have no bes
itancy about changing their allegiance
if Mr. Selling and The Oregonian can
not show that be previously had a ma
jority. That Mr. Selling and The Ore
gonian ean not do.
Without these latter votes Mr. Bel
ling ean not be elected.
Those who pledged their votes un
conditionally but because o f the mis
representation on the part of The Ore
gonian and because of misleading state
ments on the part o f Mr. Selling, would
really be more honest in refusing to car
ry out a promise thus obtained than by
protecting their honor to the extent of
carrying out a promise no matter how-
obtained.
A member would hardly be honest to
his constituents to carry out a promise
made under such conditions.
Mr. Selling should be honest enough
to offer to release any who feel that
their votes were obtained under false
pretenses.
I f he is not willing to release any who
do not feel that their votes were honest
ly obtained, he is not fair enough to
make a good officer.
We challenge Mr. Helling to make
such an offer to his supporters.
I f the
votes he has secured were secured fairly
and squarely he has nothing to lose by
accepting that challenge.
I f he is not The Oregonian ’» hand-
pieked candidate, let him answer that
challenge without consulting that news
paper.
But he will not accept the challenge—
not i f The Oregonian knows it— and if
he dare not accept sueh a challenge he
might as well acknowledge that in a
fair fight he could not get enough votes
to elect him.
I f Mr. Belling will not make such an
offer, and thereby acknowledges that
some o f his votes were obtained unfair
ly, those whose votes were secured by
underhanded methods should have no
hesitancy about eoming out for a square
deal and for control of the legislature
by the members thereof.
Mr. Belling hasn’t sufficient uncon
ditional votes to elect him. I f a few of
those pledged to him should fail him
be would have no chance at all.
In any kind o f a fair fight Mr. Eaton
will win out.
We dare Mr. Belling to offer to re
lease any member who feels that his
vote was secured unfairly.
Again we say he does't dare.
Q
,v
20
The Oregonian intimates that the man
or newspaper that would seek to array
on* part of the state against another at
thi* time i* little less than a public
enemy. That seems to be about what
The Oregoaiau has succeeded in doing.
ABOLISHMENT SAVES INNOCENT
MAN.
Two years ago The Sentinel made
quite a light for abolishment o f capital
punishment. One o f the arguments it
used quite frequently was that often
the wrong man has been fouud guilty
and that it were much better that many
guilty ones escape
extreme penalty
of the law than that one innocent man
have his life taken for a crime he did
not commit.
The Sentinel did not expect to have
its point brought home as forcibly as
it has been in the last few days.
In the penitentiary is a nmn found
guilty of murder. But for the abolish
ment o f capital punishment at the re
cent election this man would have al
ready been legally killed for the crime
of which he was found guilty.
Through the efforts o f an expert
criminologist another mun has confessed
that it was he who committed the ter
rible crime.
What would be the feelings o f the
officers o f the law now if they had
legally killed this innocent manf
We have little feeling for a murderer.
Wo feel the world would be better with
out him. We feel that every possible
deterrent should be placed before the
intending murderer, but we feel that
our argumeut has been shown to have
substantial foundation.
How impossible it would be to make
atonement to this innocent man if his
life had been taken from him.
The Ashland Tidings closed the old
year by issuing a splendid, illustrated
booster edition. It was devoted largely
to editorial matter regarding the beauty
o f Ashland and the wonderful oppor
tunnies of that section. It wus replete
with halftone pictures o f a large per
centage o f the citizens o f that live lit
tie city, to which the special edition
was a credit.
The newspapers refer continually to
the Christian nations at war.
There
are no ehristian nations. Christian na
tions would not go to war. The nations
at war merely profess Christianity.
They do not practice Christianity as nu
tions.
They are merely nominally
Christian.

This Year — Total
to Be Raised Is $594,342.89.
Lane County’s tax levy for 1915 has
been fixed at 15.5 mills.
The county
court met Saturday and adopted this
levy after having changed only a few
items in the budget as resubmitted to
the county by the committee o f taxpay
ers, which was adopted at the meeting
Thursday. The levy last year was 1*
mills.
The taxpayers voted at the meeting
to do away with the services o f the
juvenile officer and suggested the cut
ting out of the estimate for the main
tenance of that office, but the members
o f the county court did not see fit to
place this work in the hands o f the
sheriff as suggested and provided $1,-
500 for juvenile work.
The taxpayers'
committee was willing to giVe $000 for
the work to be performed by members
o f the sheriff’s force.
The original
amount asked for was $1,700.
The court also provided for a county
veterinarian which the committee re
commended cutting out and will give
him $500. The assessor was given $2,-
000 for the work o f taking the state
census and the total amount allowed
for his office is $14,260. The committee
recommended $12,260. For the circuit
court the committee recommended the
sum of $ 15,000 but the county court
voted to retain the original estimate c f
$17,800. In the account for the care
for the poor the committee voted to
recommend $10,000 but the court will
allow $14,500. In the office o f county
treasurer the committee wanted to cut
the estimate down to $6,810 but the
court allowed that official $7,210. The

Julienne strips of boiled tripe are al

ihredded chicken, diced sweetbreads,
flaked fish or creamed oysters may be
mixed with any o f the Italian pastes

the result is an attractive as well as

Any one of these is suited to serving in

An eaav way o f introducing a novel
flavor nifo the familiar dish known as
macaroni au grntin, is to sprinkle bits
of uncooked bacon over the top of the
prepared macaroni just before placing
it in the oven. While baking the bacon
fat will trickle down through the con
tents of the dish, resulting in a delicious
flavor, while the bits of lean bacon will
be crisp and appetizing.
The shell o f a pineapple or Edam
cheese makes a good receptacle in
which to bake creamed macaroni. There
will always be sufficient o f the cheese
remaining around the sides o f the shell
to give richness to the macaroni and
by standing the cheese shell in a link
ing dish it will eook without losing its
shape.
Macaroni timhales are a desirable nd
dition to the list of economical lunch
eon or supper dishes. One large mould
