Mclean describes
treatment at hands
of police officers
Thirty Hours Without Water
and Food Five Days
in Custody
Thirty hours without food pr wa
ter, and other persecutions Is the
treatment that B. D. McLean reports
at tho hands of Vancouver police of
ficers. Ho was arrested on giwnlo
lon of being the murderer of Jeweler
Butterworth of St. Johns, and held
for five days at the police station,
which iho describes as five times
worse than a hog pen, and as full
of vermin and filth. From Wednes
day noon at tho time of his arrest,
until Thursday evening, McLean had
nnihl ig to drink or eat, and for the
five days while in the hands of the
officers he had to buy his own food
at a rostaurant.
So: only was McLean mistreated,
but h says that a continual cross fire
of questions was aimed at him by
various officers. He states that he
think-i nearly fifty - tried to twist
something but the truth out of him.
The tweatbox as described by him, Is
a sin pie proceeding for the officer,
but V)ry tantalizing to the prisoner.
One question is asked him, and be
fore ho gives an answer out of lis
mouth, another Is fired at him; The
method is continued either until the
prisoner makes a mistake or stops
answering through his ability to

"I was run down and weak from in

answer the swiftly repeated ques
tions. McLean returned last Saturday.
He says that many of the stories
printed of him in both Portland and
local newspapers are untrue. For in
stance the report published that he
was married at sea, and that he
eloped to do so, Is totally false. He
and his wife were married In a hotel
at Astori wltn tne fu" permission
and understanding of the bride's
parents. A sister of the bride was
with them. His numerous frlendB In
and out of Eugene received the news
of his release with the greatest Joy.
The Investigation of the officers
showed that they had made one of
their numerous mistakes in arresting
an innocent man. However, such
treatment as McLean describes is not
due to tho moBt guilty criminal, not
to consider the man who Is held up
on the barest susj4clon.

REV. C. A.
W00LEY
ON MR. TAFT
Editor Guard
On the eve of the presidential
election, the Republican National
Committee has Issued a statement in
defense of Candidate Taft's religious
belief, evidently aimed as a vote
catcher. In the interest of all who
accept the Bible as a revelation of
God's will and purpose, concerning
the human race, and who accept
Jesus Christ as the Son of God and
Savior of Men, the following deduc
tions are submitted, as standing out
clearly on the face of Mr. Taft's re
ligious creed: First, he rejects the
Christian scriptures as of divine au
thority in religion. He denies the di
vinity of Jesus Christ; does not De
lleve that he arose from the dead.
While, therefore, he accepts In a
way the teachings of Jesus, he only
accepts such of them as are in accord
with the fallible scientific re
searches and deductions of today.
Believes not In God and Christ, of
the Bible, but In a God of modern
life. Which means if it means any
thing, to let every man conceive a
God after the Ideas and inclinations
of his own mind, and worship the
God which his own mind has cre
ated. In short Mr. Taft's religious be
lief exalts mere fallnble human reas
on above the teachings of Jesus
when those teachings come Into any
degree of conflict with the deduc
tions of scientific research, and hu
man reason. Now, while .Mr. Taft may
be an eceeptable candidate for the ex
alted position for president of the
united States or America, to those
who reject the Holy Bible, as the
standard of authority in religion, he
is a very unacceptable candidnte
from the religious standpoint; to
those who love the Good Old Book
and who have realized for them
selves that . Jesus Christ has power
on earth to forgive sins. We do not
find fault with those whose religious
views agree with those of Mr. Taft
for supporting them If they think
he Is as well qualified In other re
spects as Mr. Bryan. But how a de
vout believer In Jesus Christ who
says of himself, "I am the way, the
truth and the life; no man cometh
to the Father but by me" can by his
vote attempt to place Mr. Taft at the
head of our great nation and turn
down Mr. Bryan, a devout follower
of Our Lord Jesus Christ, a man
easily Mr. Taft's equal In every qual
ity that goes to make up a wise,
snfo and great president and vastly
Mr. Taft's superior 111 many points,
Is to us utterly unthinkable. For
lot It be kept In view, that this Is
not a mere choice so far as the re
ligious Idea goes, bh between Chris
tian denominations, but It Is from the
religious view point, a choice as be
tween bible and no bible; between
Christ as the Son of God and Savior
of the World; and a humanly con
ceived and Invented Jesus, who
though a great teacher in his day.
was yet fnllnble as a guide and not
to he helievert or followed in all his
teachings. To reject the bible as
divine authority In religion and Je
sus Christ, as the divine savior of
men would be to use the language of
great thinker, like "blotting out
the sun In the heavens" and then
vainly attempting to warm and light
the world by kindling fires on ehe
tops of the hills and mountains.

New York, "Oct. 30. In his fore
east of the composition of the elec
toral college which will choose the
next president and vlce-presidertt of
the United States, made public at
Republican headquarters tonight,
National Chairman Hitchcock claims
325 Republicans or 82 more than
will be required to elect.
For the Republican ticket, Mr.
Hitchcock is sure of New York, Ohio,
and Indiana. He also Includes in the
Republican column, Nebraska, Mon
tana, Maryland and Nevada. In. ex
plaining his list Mr. Hitchcock said
that he believed his chances were ev
en in Kentucky and Missouri with
their 13 and 18 votes respectively.
It by chance any of the states
claimed should go Democratic, he
said, they would be Maryland, Mon
tana and Nevada, with a total of 14
votes. This would leave a Republi
can margin of B9. and of this advan
tage he expressed himself as perfect
ly confident.
The National chairman does not
Include Tennessee and Oklahoma In
his list and concedes that the chances
in these states are against the Re
publican ticket. His forecast, Mr.
Hitchcock said, was based upon in
formation received by him up to to
night from party leaders throughout
the United States.
The states clnlmed for Taft and
Sherman, with their electoral vote,
