Keady of Waldport, Lincoln county, 16 miles south of Newport, who la running on the Democratic ticket as candidate for county commissioner, occupies proably one of the strang est situations in the political hlBtory of Oregon. Keady is a registered Republican who was defeated at the primaries for his party's nomination, but without any knowledge of his own, his name was written In on the Democratic ticket and to the sur prise of everybody It was found that he had received the Democratic nomination. He accepted this, but nevertheless Is acting as private sec retary to Frank Bulker of Waldport, chairman qf the Republican county central committee, and In that capac ity ia compelled to write and send out to the voters of the county letters urging them to vote the straight Republican ticket and defeat him self. Keady explains his peculiar posi tion by saying that on account of the fact that primary day was wet and rainy, only 430 of the registered Republicans of the county came out and cast their votes, and he refuses to accept the result, as expressing the will of the party. He still classes himself as a Republican, though on the Democratic ticket and says that fter the election he will return to the fold. Meantime he is touring the county In an effort to offset the ffect of the letters against himself which as Bunker's secretary he is obliged to send out. He expresses himself as confident of being elected. REV. C. A. WOOLY ANSWERS MR. WILSON. Editor Eugene , Guard: In your Issue May 26, 1 notice some state ments and arguments attributed to Rev. Clarence True Wilson against Woman Suffrage. By your permis sion, I wish to say a few words In reply, through the Guard. In the first place I do not think it is true that only a very small minority of Oregon's good women wish the bal lot. I am pretty well acquainted In Western Oregon, and I do not think nazard anything when I say that respectable majority of them do wish the ballot. Those aueens of our homes would love to become full fledged citizens. Mr. Wilson's statement to the effect that there are not four other states In the un- on as corrupt politically as Col orado, Idaho, Wyoming and Utah, Is not true, barring the last named stale, where the hierarchy and polygamy of the Mormon church has blighted and 'hindered every effort at moral reform, from the 1st set tlements of the territory and state, It is not justified by either facts or figures. And to make such a state ment without an effort to prove .It save the one thing that he knew In stances In which women had barter ed their virtue for office, Is to beg the1 question most plteously. Does not he. and everybody else know that degraded women sell their vir tu In every Btate In the Union for clerkships, money, fine clothOB and trinkets; why then does he seek to make the Impression that tha ballot In women's hands tends to degrade her, by citing such Instances to prove It. Colorado, Idaho and Wyoming will compare very favorably with such states as Montana, Nevada and others. In point of fact, 'he need not go away from the Pacific states to find drunkenness, gambling, prize fighting, prostitution and every form of bosslsm, and political corruption as rampant as In Colorado. Idaho and Wyoming. nosliles It Is not true that eaual suffrage has been tried In all of those stntoB that he mentions for thirty years, as his statement clearly Implies. Reduced to final analysis his loose statements and arguments prove, if they prove anything, that to vote, 'hold office or tnke an active part in politics tonds to debase a woman. Now if thiB be true. It is because there is a debasing Influence In voting and holding office and therefore every time a man or wom an casts a ballot or aspires to office, lie or she Is mnde worse. If such were the facts our system of govern ment would be a huge mistake, and we had better resolve It into an ab solute monarchy, and the quicker the bettor. But who believes such stuff? There are good and true men and women who do not think It beat for women to vote, and I do not impugn the motive of Mr Wilson but 'his loose statements appear to me wholly un justifiable and his logic ridiculous.

Editor Guard: It has been my In tention for some time to write you a personal letter, and your circular letter of recent date affords me an opportunity to express my apprecia tion of same and to make a few re marks about my old home town. Probably I take more notice of Eugene from the fact that ten years of my boyhood were spent In that vlclnltv than I otherwise would. However, after surveying the condi tions and possibilities of other places along the Pacific coast which It has been my good fortune to observe and comparing them with those of Eu- sjene I can say with candor that 1 be lieve Eugene has a brilliant future. The question of greatest impor tance to the citizens of Eugene and vicinity Is without doubt the build ing up of the city and surrounding country, and it appears that you are wide awake tn regard to the means for forging ahead. I believe that the people of Eugene realize that It is better to build steadily and artisti cally than to boom. The greatest ad vertisement to any city or commu nity Is artistic and attractive homes, good highways and public places. Every one who builds should endeav or to do so attractively. A four-room 'house can be deslgned to be attrac tive as easily as a mansion may be. This Is too Infrequently considered when building cheap houses, and as a consequence most cheap dwellings present the anpearance of shacks, public parks add wonderfully to the cheerfulness and life of any city. I might say more, but did not In tend to deliver a lecture. However, I will say in conclusion that I ad mire the spirit of Eugene, working systematically to make a greater and better city. Such boosting done with forethought and founded upon truth will make Eugene 'a beautiful and prosperous city. Wishing The Guard every success and your citizens continued prosper ity, I remain. Yours very truly. E. R, WELLS. ODD FELLOWS WILL MEET TO DRIVE TO ELMIRA All those brothers who desire to aiteno tne institution or the new Odd Fellows' lodge at Elmlraon Sat urday.
