violated section 4111 of the corrupt
practices act, according to prominent
attorneys of the city, who have made
an examination of the statute.
This section provides that no can
didate for office shall either directly
or indirectly promise to appoint an
other ptnw.n to a public position, and
prescrioes as a penalty forfeiture of
office and a Jail gentence of not more
than one year, or a fine of not more
than av r both:. . -
The time for the forfeiture penalty
his elapsed, however, and hence
could not be invoiced.. ' ' '
Charges that th governor made a
pre-election pledge to appoint Hill to
the game commiiMion were recently
made in a signed statement tamed by
Ikri Anderson a prominent citisen of
Medford, and former member of the
commission. . !
Statements corroborating Anderson
have txren made also by other promi
nent Medford citizens, although not
in writing.
"Candidate Pierce understanding
fully the resentment felt by the
sportsmen of Jackion county over
the appointment Ly oicolt of Louis
fiean. a Willamette Valley man, on
the game commission, when that sec
tion already had two able represen
tatives, and in an effort to capitalize
that resentment for his own political
advantage, voluntarily made a defi
nite pledge to the Jackson County
(lunie Protective association that if
elected governor he would appoint
any man they might select as a mem
ber of the state game commission, "
reads Anderson's statement in part.
"Mo when Pierce was elected,
knowing the positive, definite, pre
election promise he had made, ' the
association proceeded to select a man
to go on the game commission when
.Mr. Kean's term would expire on
February 25 following." I
Anderson then relates how the as-
soeiatlon agreed on A. L. Hill for
the place, and how the governor re
pudiated his pledge and appointed'

The section of the corrupt prac

assert Governor Pierce violated, if
he made the promise, reads:
-No person shall In order to aid'

through any other person, promise to'
appoint another person, or promise to
secure or aid in securing the ap

WHEN I was well I used to say, "I'm getting better every
day, more buoyantly I tread;" I felt improvement as I
spieled, imaginary ills were healed, and phantom ailments fled.
And so I said to all my friends, "Here's where the doc's profes
sion ends, the pillsmith's trade is K(mc; henceforth suggestion
will avail where saws don't help and capsules fail, and you may
bank thereon." But recently I caught the flu, and when the
blamed attack was new, I said to neighbors five, "Now watch me
cure this dread disease;-I'll spring my 'getting better' wheeze;
before it ills can't thrive." I murmured, as I went my way,
"I'm getting better every day, I don't need doe or nurse," and
thus I tried to kill the flu and kept on trying when I knew that
I was getting worse. My neighbors five stood in a group, and
watched me cough and sneeze and whoop, and they were greatly
pleased; for they had argued, with much steam, that faith in such
a dippy scheme betrayed a mind diseased. I do not say that they
were right, but I am taking pills tonight, and dope, and boneset
tea; and Old Doe Casket just has said, "You wait until you're
nearly dead before you send for me. I am disgusted with you
lads who take up modern cure-all fads as soon as they begin;
you fool with them, and fool with fate, and when (irim Death is
at the gate, you cull the doctor in."
