of politics from business big or lit
tle by enactment of corrupt prac
tices acts more stringent than any
of tho "model" rows now In effect
in several states, will bo the demand
irged upon congress by tho Clapp
committer ot tho senate.
As y:t the members have not met
to form any specific recommenda
tions. Their investigation of cam
paign contributions is temporarily
halted probably to be resumed after
tho election. But it became known
today that there would be no parti
sanship in their appeal to congress
for statutes which would bar from
future campaign war chests money
tainted with tho stamp ot corpora
tions. -. The committee members represent
the three great national parties and
aro unanimous in their opinion as to
the needs for political reforms. There
is now no provision or any code re
quiring cxposuruo of pre-convention
financing.
They bcliove that after the rancor
pf tho present polUcai fight is past,
tho parties will be united this win
ter to purgo politics of corporate In
fluence. i
S. A. Pattison and family left

chased a farm and will hereafter re

Mr. Pattlspu was the founder of
tho Central i'olnt Herald, former
president of tho Jackson County

years a newspaper publisher.

COLONEL, WOOD
TO SPEAK HERE
WHY LOSS
GOVERNOR MARSHALL oC Indmiin kept busy telling
Orcgoninns how they should vote for Unitcl Stutos
senator. This was to be expected that is one reason why
ho onino to Orejrou.
Naturally a denioeratic administration wants a demo
cratic congress. It would be a gain to the party, hut What
would Oroprou g'un by changing the label and the senator?
Ho.irno J t presents tho progressive propog.uum of ail
parties. He voted with the insurgents against stand-pat
measures. IIo would support. Wilson in his progressive
piopoganda and the people haven't much interest in who
geis the offices. Ronnie is endorsed by all progressives
outside of a few Bull Moose voters in Oregon.
The work Of the senate is done by committees. Position
on committees is governed by sonority, tho senior member
of the administration party being chairman, other mem
bers ranking next according to sonority regardless of
party alignment. -
If the democrats control the senate, and Ronnie is re
elected, he will hold all of his committee assignments, fie
will lose his chairmanship of the postal coiamitti.e, but
will be ranking member.
If Bourne is defeated, his committee assignments go to
the senators next him in sonority. Oregon loses tho advan
tage or lus strategic position.
If Lane is elected, he will be assigned to tail-end posi
tions on committees, and may get on the bottom of some
good committees iT democrats control the senate, but very
poor committees if the republicans control.
If Selling is elected, he will be assigned to the bottom
of committees very poor indeed if democrats control, as
seems probable.
In either case, where will Oregon be the gainer'? "Why
exchange n positive advantage for a known disadvantage
Bourne and Chambcrlaiiunake a good team for results.
une works with the republicans insurgents, the other with
the democrats. Together they deliver the goods.
A vote for Clark is a vote for Selling. Clark has no
'possible show of election, but may divert progressive votes
from Bourne to elect Selling, if elected, Clark couldn't
be any better progressive than Bourne and in six years
would not roach the point of vantage Bourne now occupies.
The people of Oregon have a lot to lose by changing
senators for the sake of'a partisan label to gratify politi
cians and nothing to gain.
A PROGRESSIVE
nnllE retirement of S. A. Pattison, founder of the Cen-
tral Point Herald and his desertion of newspaper work
for farm life after twenty years of continuous labor as
editor and publisher, is a distinct loss to Oregon journal
ism for Sir. Pattison always conducted a fearless and
progressive paper with higlv standards.
Prom Sir. Pattison's advent dates Central Points awak
ening. He took the lead in the progressive movements
and is largely responsible for the fact that Central Point
ij today the best paved, best sewered and best watered
i-town ofits size in the northwest.
Mr: Pattison has be6u a community builder and in
devoting his energy to improving the country has fulfilled
the best ideals of journalism. Almost every newspaper
man looks forward to the time when he shall have saved

FRANK SEYMOUR CONFESSES TO MURDER
(Continued
started after Hie money belt. 3Iike thought he was comiiijr to and pulled
out hw club mid hit him twice. Then I grubbed his cudgel and threw it
under the box factory. Then I grabbed George by the heels and pulled him
nil iii under the box fnctory but hit. head. I got stuek in the mud and
could not go any further with him. 3Iike fctood on the truck otithtdo with hi
mouth open. I culled him to help
and btqipcd on the cudgel I had taken from him and thrown under the box
factory. Jlikc picked up the cudgel and hit George again before I could
stop him and then threw ddwn his cudgel. All this time I had George by
the feet. 3Uke then grabbed George by the shoulders and pulled him
around with his head to tho bouth. Then we ntnrted in to go through him.
I started again for tho belt. I got the belt off while Alike was fcurciii'ug
bin from the belt up. I opened the belt
or paper, uiici went through hia
and four half dollars.
Mike said he found nothing but the
by the heels and Mike grabbed him by the bhouldcrtf and we hud him out
if the mud on a high place. I asked Mike where his cudgel was and he
told mo that it was in the mud, but he did not know where. It was too
dark to see it in the mud, ho I gave him a match to find it. I found the
ejub and Blnrted out with it when Alike nuked mo for it. I would not give
it to him but I Martcd down the track when 1 tnrned and saw .Mike 1,'oiug
hack under. I otitic back and miv Mike bend over. He looked up and fnw
me and said "Parker, give me tho club for I must kill him for ho knows who
I am, and I have not got the nerve to cut hi throaH"
I said to Mike, "Come on, some one it, coming down the track." IIo then
cut George's throat and threw the knife to tho north.
Tho renboit I took George'w shoes off was bccaiibC I found nothing in
the belt.
When we left tho place I hud my club swinging to my wrist and Mike
find his in liia hand. Ah we turned tho north corner of the factory wax
about 10 i'eut ahead of Mike. I turned my head and saw Miko kick a hotu
hi the sawdiiHt und hide his club. We then walked ucroiw Fir street to the
ice plant. Up the street in front of the ice plant is a stable with a horse
trough on .he east. I started )o wash my hands and Mike did thu same,
When wo left tlju water, trough we werit one block west ami wo turned and
went south. We went about oue-hulf a block and stopped. J asked Mike
what he got and he said the watch und chain. I took $1 out of my pocket
telling Mike that was all I got, and gave .Mike $2 telling him that was all
J had. I got $.'j from George. Wo walked to tho corner of Sixth and Grape.
I asked Mike what he was goiu;; to do with thu watch and he told me
he was going to bury it. I told him cither to bury it or throw it away
u oni'o before ho was caught. - Ho suit! he would throw it away.
Wo purled, t'ldi he said ho wan going home. 1 now hud inv club in my
pocket wrapped in paper. I went straight south to the further side of
Main street and dowu'nthu right side of Main street to the Nush hotel. I
went from there to the Seattle rooming house.
I went to room eight, toel: off my coat and hut, took the' chain out of
inv pocket and thought thu best tiling I could do with it would be to get
rid of it. I took the club and chain out to thu toilet and dropped it in.
I then threw thu club down under tio stairs, I went back to my room und
buw ih'ul my clothes had mud all over them und 1 spent about one hour
cleaning them at my room.
