OF GOLD COMES SPOONER APPEARS
WHY OLD MOTTO
FOR HARRIM a N
FROM EUROPE
WAS NOT USED
Washington, Nov. 13.—The com
in a letter In answer to the prot sts
received at the White House against
the new gold coins without the words
"in God We Trust,” says in part:
"When the question of the n^w
coinage came up we looked into the
law and found no warrant therein
for putting "In God We Trust” on
the coins. As I did not approve if
>t I did not direct that it should
again be put on. My own feelings in
the matter are due to a very- firm
conviction that to put such a motto
on coins or to use it in any kindred
manner not only does no good, but
does positive harm, and Is in effect
irreverence which comes dangerously
close to sacrilege. A beautiful, sol
emn sentence such as the one in ques
tion should be treated and uttered
only with that fine reverence which
necessarily implies certain exaltation
of spirit. Any use which tends to

standpoint profoundly to be re
gretted. in all my life 1 never heard
"ny human beins speak reverently
of this motto.
If congress alters
the law and directs me to replace It
on the coins it will be immediately
put into effect, but I trust the sen
timent of the country, the spirit of
reverence of the country, will pre
vent such action being taken."

WHERE CASH BEATS CREDIT
Washington, Nvo. 13.—The com
plaint prepared by the North Pacific
Lumber Association, charging dis
crimination and illegal concert of ac-
uOn against Western and Northwest-
ern railroads.was filed toda ywlth the
interstate commerce commission. It
asserts that the roads advanced rates
from five to ten cents per hundred
pounds, effective November 1st, on
all forest products and that rates are
excessive, extortionate, prohibitive,
and discriminatory, and If enforced
will seriously injure the lumber in
dustry.
David B. Parmenter, an aged far
mer residing about three tulles from
Walker station, was arrested yester
day afternoon by Deputy Sheriff C. C.
Hammond on the charge of polyga
my and was brought to Eugene last
evening and placed in the county Jail
to await his examination before Jus-
tlce of the Peace Bryson.
The fact that Parmenter had more
than one wife was brought to light
through the filing of a divorce suit
against him on the sixth of the pres
ent month by Mrs. Sarah E. Parmen
ter, wife No. I, as mentioned by The
Guard at the time. She alleged in
her complaint that she left home in
July, 1906, and went to Tacoma,
where she has been staying with her
daughter. On October 21 Parmen
ter was married in Eugene to Mrs.
Louisa A. Bowen. Mrs. Parmenter
No. 1 heard of the marriage and at
once came to Eugene and began di
orc« proceedings. The first mar
riage occurred In Vermont November
12, 1862.
Parmenter states that he did not
know he was committing bigamy, or
polygamy, thinking his first wife
dead. He,says that when she left for
Tacoma the doctors said she could
not live more than two weeks longer,
and that shortly afterward he beard
that she had died.
Mrs. Parmenter No. 1 and Mrs.
Parmenter No. 2 have both been In
Eugene since the beginning of the di
