Hut it should have been Solomon JlJl I'm-le Dan, as everyone, ealleil him, was wondrous wise. He knew just how to run the jrovernnieiit. lie knew how to run Ihe'state. He knew how to run his home town. If the President had only done this, and the Governor that, and the Mayor thus and so, all the misfortunes and disasters that I'ncle Dan so fondly dilated upon, would never have come to pass. Then one day I'ncle Daniel, who had always lived on an inherited ii'coine from gilt cilued murttraues. decided to make a fortune. He discovered a neglected genius who had perfected a process of milking gasoline out of rain water. All the genius needed to make I'neie Daniel as rich and as great as Henry Ford was the use of Uncle Daniel 's capital. Why not be rich as well as wise? AVhy not indeed. So 'Uncle Dan turned over his cash to the genius whose name was Creen, and prepared to see his picture on the front page of the village news paper, as the man who husted John D. Rockefeller. Hut something went wrong. In a remarkably short time Uncle Dan's fortune had disappeared and so had Green. It was quite a blow for I'ncle Dan. but a distant relative was good enough to die at that moment, so the old man was able to live on without working, and continue to tell everyone on the street just how the country and the ftate and the town should be run. So we come to the moral of this touching little tale, which is "The man who knows just how to run everyone else's business, never knows how to run his own." There arc plenty of Uncle Dans, here, there and everywhere. And strange to relate there are still plenty of people, whohave noth ing better to do than listen to them.

I should read the volumes deathless writ by men of bulging domes, hut I follow, pale and breathless, the ex ploits of Sherlock Holmes. While my wiser neighbor traces Ein stein's theory to its source, I, with Cleek of Forty Faces, mix with sinners vile and coarse. I pass up the stately dietion of philoso phers and seers, and the tinhorn sleuths of fiction are my com rades through the years. And my aunts, with eyew accusing, tell me how I'm wasting time, but 1 find the sleuths! amusing, and they're surely not a crime. I have found it doesn't matter what a fellow likes to do: some one's hound to rise and .platter burn ing language over you. If I liked the works of Dac-on, my fierce aunts would rise and say, "By your reason you're forsaken, since you r.ead that stuff all day!'' So, ignoring the objertives of the good and wise and true, I commune with punk detectives who've just found a hopeful clew. COMMUNICATIONS FIli Issue Kxphihutl. t Ashland Ore., July 10.

A few of us have, durifcg ihis time, spent our time and money in the cause, and Mr. Thomas as mm h. if not more than any one t-tee. Among other things he spent a couple of weeks at the mouth of the Hogue River in the Investigation ui it-mii-tions, so that he intent have first ha'nd information. Kveryone who has followed this subject knows of this. f In view of these facts, we feel that Mr. Thomas is entitled to fair treat ment, and that when Mr. Colvig pub lishes statements in regard to these affairs that are not true, we feel that Pitch statements should be contra dicted. Mr. Colvig says that Mr. Thomas was guilty of "injecting him self into the presidency of a game and fish association." When the members of the Ashland Fish and Game, Protective associa tion were approached to consolidate with other like clubs in Jackson county as one club, they were inclined to refuse because of the fear of domi nation on the part of Medford and along lines not approved by outside, clubs, especially Ashland. At a gen eral conference at Medford, it was decided that Ashland should have the presidency of the club, and the Ashland committee, of which we were members, returned home to discuss the matter with our own members prior to the .general meeting to be held at Medford later. Upon a can vass of our members,, our commit tee found that there was practically a unanimous feeling that Senator Thomas represented our views, and that he shoud be named as our choice for president of the new organiza tion. When informed of this, Mr. Thomas strenuously demurred on two grounds, viz: That his selection might cause some dissension, and that he had already given more than his share of effort and should be re lieved from further leadership. It was only when he saw that the con solidation might fail that he consent ed to let Ashland present his name sis its candidate for president of the When Mr. Colvig makeg tle state ment that Mr. Thomas injected him self into the presidency, it appeared to us so unfair that we decided to narrate the real facts. There was also one other state ment made by Mr. Colvijr that was unfair and referred to Mr. Thomas, viz: "Since the gentleman (meaning Mr. Thomas! to quote a prominent daily of the capitol. 'does not know a carp from a steelhead. nor a pheas ant from a crow, and never fishes only for suckers, or hunts except for votes.' " This quotation -is taken from an article copied in The Tribune recently from the Capitol Journal the paper edited by tieorge Putnam. Mr. Put rram's hatred for Charlie Thomas has ben well understood in Jackson coun'J for many years, nnd has been one of the thjngs that has endeared him to sportsmen. George fought the battle oi our organisations until we procured a closed river. H helped undue that and thereafter has not only favored all the McCleay in terests wanted, even to favoring a re tention of the seines, but has vic iously attacked the men who hwe been continuing the fight along fne lines he himself fought so long before he faced about. The lines quoted from the Journa show the malice and venom of the writer. the untruthfullness is apparent on its face and we are surprit-ed that Mr. Colvig should adopt them as his own. As we said, we do not know anything about politics, but we want fair play. - HARRY H. HASLBR.
