Cities Felt Slight Trembler This Morning Snlem, Or., Jan. 12, 1909. Editor Gtihrd: 1 have Just seen a statement taken from the EiiKone pa pers, and copied from the Medfoqd Tribune, to the effect that I hud stat ed recently while at Medford on offi cial business that business conditions had not Improved in Eugene since lo cal option had gone into effect, is not In any way true. What I did say was, that business conditions had Im proved in Eugene, and were Improv ing all the time, but whether they would have improved 'whether the city had gone wet or dry Just the same I waa unable to say, but I thought they would have improved just the same under either condition. As to the statement that wholesale liquor houses sent out free books of instructions as to how to make fancy drinks and many of the women every afternoon gather together and have 'booze parties, and that I had seen many women drunk in Eugene since, prohibition went into effect is a lie. nure and simple. I I n' ver made any such statement l 1 the Tribune representative, or any j one nt Medford or elewhere. , As to tho statement as to the amount of liquor used in private j homes, sold by "blind plus" or "boot- luggers In Eugene since It went dry. . or as lo tho number of revenue tax Ktnmni there. Is of little moment and Immaterial. Hut such statements as I i lo the women and citizens of Eugene' eov;,nr demand an explanation and no suiti language was used at all The facts are that a very hitler campaign is being waged In Medford for their city election held there. I believe, today, and no doubt but that such articles are written and enlarg ed upon largely to Influence'the vot ers. Kome, Jan. 13.

This prerogative, which our forefathers Intended should be vested In the people only, has boon re stored to tho olectornte of this state through the passage of the d I root pri mary law. The people exercised that prerogative for tho first time last Bummer. They have chosen their representatives for the various admin istrative positions and through them the people rule. "Efforta were made by some of the candidates in the Inte primary elec tion to defeat the purpose of the law and violato Ita spirit by filing declar ations solely for the purpose of aiding or defeating other candidates for the same office. Such an abuse of the law should not be tolerated, but should be made Illegal and penalties should be provided for those who do not file their declarations In good faith.

"A party responsible for the char acter and efficiency of its candidates and Biandlng for a concrete princi ple or policy Is hlile to contribute to the welfare o( the state or nation in a greater degree than a disorganized mass having no recognized pollilcai affiliation. or no harmonious political relationship.
