Chlntiook, rcfereo. At tho time tho deed was drawn, If drawn when It Is dated, tho Prospect Construction company was not Incorporated as the dato Is a year and a half before tho latter company was organized to con struct tho power plant at Prospect. According to tho testimony, while not admitted by the officials of tho company, the deed was evidently dated bnck In order to escapo deed ing tho water rights to tho Iloguo Klver Klcctrlc company which had an outstanding bonded Indebtedness, IfiO.OOO of M-hlch was held In In dianapolis. Attorney Hcamcs who 13 appear ing for he St, Louis capitalists who nro contesting the' rights of the com pany was relentless In I1I3 examina tion of tho company officials regard ing tho dating of tho deed. Tho taking of testimony will prob ably bo concluded at a night session to he held tonight or Thursday. The office of county treasurer i one of tho most important and ro-j-poiihible in the gift of the people of Jackson county. Not only must the occupant be able to give n heavy bond, but he must nlso be competent, honest and courteous in order to ful fill tho requirements of the place to the satisfaction of the public Such 11 person is Lewi Ulrica of Jiu'lihoin Hie. No comes up to the Jcffcrsoninn standard and will make it model official. Dnring D. II. Mil ler's second term n county tiPiiMirer lie made nn enviable reputation s deputy treasurer, .so that he has al ready been fried and found worthy of the confidence and good will of the people in the position to which he was unanimously nominated by his party. Mr. Ulrich is n successful young business man of Jacksonville, where he was born and grew to manhood. The citizens of his native town have shown their appreciation of his ster ling qualities by choosing him n councilman and school clerk and to other honorary positions. This is Mr. Ulrich's first candi dacy for a county office. lie wns not an aspirant to this nomination, his iinmc having been wrifien on the ballot at the primary election with out his knowledge or consent. There is no doubt of Mr. Ulnch's qualifications and worthiness, and wo feel certain that the voters will never regret having given him favorable consideration at tho coming election. Tho claims of such u candidnf" fihould not bo overlooked. Sea Girt, it, J., Oat. 19, 1913. To th Voters of Aasrlcat I aa glad to have nn opportunity to state very laply nod directly any 1 an Booking to be oleoV ed President of tho United State. 1 feel .? deeply that this la net an aabltlon ft cam rcvJLd entertain for hie om eelce. He suet to serve a cause, nnd ut know very clTly c j oause It la he Is stoking to aorve. The oause I aa enlisted In Ilea very plain to ay own vlevt The Qovtroaant of the Unit States, as no bound by the policies vhleh fciuo beeoae characteristic of Republican adalnlsm tlon In reoent years, la not free to servo the hole people inpaTtlally. and It ought to be eet free. It has been tied up, vhether dellborately or Borely by unintentional devolopaent, with particular Interests, vhleh have used their por er, both to eontrol the governaent an4 to oou trol the Industrial development of the country. It Bust be freed froa suoh oataagleaonta anl X llanoes. Uutll It la freed, It cannot serve the people as a Thole. Until It la freed. It ercnot undertake any prograaae of social, and oeocoato beiteraent, but oust be checked and thiartcd at very turn by Its patrons and Maters. In practically every speech that I sake, I put at the front of what I have to say the ques tion of the tariff and the question of the trusts, but not because of any thought or party strategy, because I believe the solution of these ques tions to lie at the very heart of the btgfer question, ehether the governaent shall be free) or not. The governaent la not free beoauae It has granted special favors to particular elasais by aeons of the tariff. The aea to whoa thss speolal fivora have been granted have fonee-t great ccstlnatlona by vhleh to control enter prise and deteratne the prloes of cesssodltlea. They could not have done thla had It not been for the tariff. Ho party, therefore, shloh does not propose to take avay these special favors and prevent monopoly absolutely In the aurketa of the country sees oven so such as the Boat eleaentary part of the aethod by which the aoversssst la to be set free. The control to vhleh tarlrf legislation ha led, both In the flald of politics and In the field of buslneaa, la vhat has produced the aoat odious feature of our present political situa tion, naaely, the absolute doalnatlon of power ful boases. Boaaea cannot exist without busi ness alliances. With the polities la hardly distinguishable fro bualseas. Bosses Maintain their control because theyre allied with aen ho vlsh their assistance in order to get eon tracts. In order to obtain speolal legislative advantages. In order to prevent reforms ehloh 111 Interfere vita monopoly or with their an joyaent of special exeaatleas. Merely aa polit ical leaders, not backed by atoney, not support od by securely Intrenched speolal Interests, bosses would be entirely manageable and ooaparatlvely powerleaa. By freeing tho govenaeent, there fore, we at the aaee time break the power of the boas. He trades, he does not govern. He ar ranges, he doea not lead. He seta the stage for what the people are to do; he dees not act aa their agent or servant, but as their director. Tor hla the roal buainesa ox pouues 1a oooa under cover. r- The saae aeons that will set the governaent free f roa the Influences which no constantly oon'.rol It would aet Industry free.

Vi R'TOnt-it might be eervlaeable f or-nany thtngf , It night assist in a hundred ways to afvSTlrd the lives and the honlth and pronote thi eoBf ort and the happlneia of the people ; but It on do tbooo things only If lta notions be d.B-l-Uerested, only If they respond to public opinion, only If those who lead govenvaent see the -it-y as a whole, feel a deep thrill of lntlwAte sympathy with every oloaa and every ln Teroat In it, know how to hold an even hand nud llsXen to nou of every sort and quality and origin, in taxing oounsel what is to be done. Interest oust not fight against interest. There sust be a coaaon understanding and a free ac tion all together. The reason that I feel Juatiried in appeal ing to the voters of this country to support tho Deaocratlc party at this critical Junoturi In lti affairs Is that the leaders of neither or the other parties propose to attack tho probloa of a freorovornaont at Its heart. Neither pro poses to soke a fundamental change in tho policy of the government with regard to tariff dutlea. It Is with both of then in respect of tho tariff aerely a qustl-i of aore or less, aerely n ques tion of lopping erf a little here and amending a llttJe there; while with the Dexocrata It la a q-estlan of principle. Their object is to cut every rreoial favor out, and out It out juit Its fast as It on be cut out without upsattlrg t-4 buslnrss prcooesea of the country. Neither does either ox the other parties propose seriously to disturb the aupresnoy or the trusts. Their only remedy la to aoeept the trusts and regulate them, no.ltiiaidlag the fact that aost of thu trusts are eo constructed aa to Insure htfch prices, because they are not based upon effici ency bat vpta Eeaepely. Their success lies in control. The oceapatltloa of aore efficient con pet iters, not loaded down br the debts created when tme aeatbdoatlons were Bade, would ooSarrnsa and coaauer tbea.

To the Editer: Inasmuch as this office Is being repeatedly asked aa to what will be come of the 5300,000.00 appropria tion made by tho last legislature for the University of Oregon, and now held up by the referendum, should the proposed millage tax hill for the support of tho University of Oregon and the Oregon Agricultural College 'carry, 1 wish to make the following statement for the Information of your readers. If the proposed millage tax bill (No. 320 on the ballot), carries It will kill this $500,000.00 appropria tion and the money, already raised through taxation and la the hands of tho stale treasurer, will revert to tho general fund and bo available for other purposes. Tho mlllago tax bill abolishes tho two boards of regents and tho Hoard of Higher Curricula "and puts both Institutions under one board. It is a well knoft'n fact that at least one-fourth of tho tlmo of the members of the legislature Is taken up wrangling over the appropriations for theso institutions. Tho millage tax bill will keep them away from the legislature and take them out of politics. ' Yours very truly, OSWALD WEST.
