We are pleased to receive these

statements made.
Whether or not you agree with

Perhaps you may have some
ideas along the lines discussed, the
tax problem, or you may wish to
put forth some other matter for
public consideration. I f so why not
sit down and wTite us a few para

CODE OF THE NORTH
We found out soon that the
Seftone were in no mood to take
hold and keep the Review. They
complained that the “ town was not
supporting the paper,’’ that there
“ was such a prejudice against it
that it could not be made to pay” ,
and all such stuff.
I was in no
condition to take up the work,
and let things drift along.
Just as soon as we got settled
and had any time
to get at it
Mrs. Hulett consulted Dr. Mason
about the growth in her breast.
His face
lengthened as he made
the examination and he said, ‘‘ I ’d
have that cut out o f there just
as soon as you oan get to it.”
Well, it was only what we had
expected but there were complica
tions.
A ll the money, only $200, that
we had received when we turned
the paper over to the Seftons
had been used up while away. We
had expected to get some pay
ments to help bear the expenses.
But nothing came. We borrowed
a hundred dollars from relatives
before starting home, otherwise we
should have been forced to desert
the old Dodge and try hitch-hik
ing. O f course there were a few
dollars coming on the bills owing
the Review when I had left. These
came into the Bank, and Mr. Gray

Greene (peace to his ashes— he’s

me to go to
the University o f Michigan hospi

much less.
I wrote to many hospitals in
the West and found that I could
pay my fare to Michigan from
New Mexico and back again for
about what any hospital in the
west would take care of me for.
The cost at the University of
Michigan hospital was borne by
the state,
it being something
the
same sort of state school the U -
niversity o f Oregon is. And the
thought came to us that it was
possible that the University of Or
egon had a hospital connected with
its medical school in Portland. No
one knew anything about it, but

gathered, that the nurses of the

for the patient that wished to a-

outside o f Multnomah county.
All of which has prompted a
little search to see how much the
state pays for the institutions re
