"Sincerely regret X am unable to be present tonight and Join with you In honoring the memory of Abraham Lincoln. Xn one of the great critical periods of our nation's history, Lin coln strove to save the constitution and the rights guaranteed under it. In these days when the constitution is being lightly cast aside we should turn to the teaching of the Great Emancipator. We will honor his memory by rededlcatlng ourselves to the preservation or the constitution al rights distinguishing American cltlzenahlp. "SENATOR FREDERICK STEIWER. "Washington, D. C." "Thank you for your letter of Feb ruary 1 Inviting me to attend the LIncom day banquet which will be held in Med ford on Monday evening. February 13. "I regret that I already have an engagement for that evening and for this reason will not be able to be with you. "X assure you. however, I appre elate your courtesy in extending the Invitation. 7 "GOVERNOR J. L. MEIER, "Salem, Ore." "I congratulate your club and the Republicans of Jackson county on your observance of the anniversary of our party's greatest leader and the nation's greatest msn. "I think well for us to pause a mo ment on an occasion like this to remind ourselves that the party of Lincoln still stands for certain urln clplea which are as fundamental now as they were when first announced by our immortal leader, and that these principles are not to be sur rendered or Ignored even In the present grave emergency, "The Republican party Is still the party which Lincoln founded, and Its basic Ideals are still his ideals. The Republican party still stands for con stitutional, parliamentary govern ment. We still believe in govern ment by law and not by men. :"We are still of the opinion tfiat It Is the duty of the legislative branch of the government to make law and that congress has no author ity, under the constitution, to sur render Its Jurisdiction In this field to the executive branch of the gov ernment. ."In our sincere desire to aid In the recovery, we have, nevertheless, heeded these fundamental principles i and we have also tried to prevent a' sometimes ruthless majority from attempting to destroy them. In this we have at least partly succeeded. ' "The minority party In congress is fulfilling Its moral and legal duties as such, and that It la functioning ; effectively, smalt though Its num bers are. It has opposed whatever bed legislation the majority party has offered with the as me vigor that It has supported the good. This has often required no little courage In the face of a temporarily blinded adverse public opinion. "The Republican party la doing Its full share In bringing about the recovery of our country. It Is doing this In a manner so unnelfla-h snd patriotic that It has gained the re spect and the confidence of the peo ple everywhere. And when the battle shall have been won and the history of thta struggle written, the party of Lincoln will -have no came to be ashsmed of the part It has played. "Very cordially yours, "JAMES W.

The audit states "the funds of the county nave been effic iently and economically administered" for the period from the submission of the report of C. H. Haines, auditor, last July, until Decemt;r 31 last. The Haines report was for a three- year period. Auditor Hoetllng recommends that a monthly audit be taken, so that the county court will have & cumula tive audit, and recommends changes In the present system of bookkeeping The report holds that errors foifnd are "minor." It Is further recommended that the "county engineer set up a schedule of depreciation, for the value of ma chinery." and that "each road dis trict receiving the benefit be assess ed for the use of the machinery in the Machinery Depreciation fund.'
