t AAream delivered last Saturday
night at Scholls, in Washington coun
ty, Walter Ij. looie, jr., cnairmnn 01
the Republican state central commit
tee, declared the promises of tax re
duction rosde by Candidate Pierce to
be impoisible and extravagant, ex
iho nrnoram of tax reduction
aud equalization undertaken by Goveu-
nor Olcott, ' ana reruiea severar iaise
rumors concerning the Republican can
didate, authorship of which he laid to
Fierce supporters bent on arousing re
ligious prejudices, it
"The Portland Journal "and Mr.
Pierce have wept long and copiously
over what they term mud slinging, be
cause we sought to tell the people the
truth about Mr. Pierce's sharp prac
tices ir dealing with the irreducible
school fund," ssid, Mr. Tooze.. "The
people are entitled to know the truth.
We have told nothing else. But as
much cannot be said for some of the
supporters of Mr. Pierce, who, in
order to stir religious prejudices and
work upon the Religious passions of
the people,' and in this way enhance
the cause of this demagogic candidate
for governor, have circulated false
stories - concerning Governor Olcott
Let Mr. Pierce and the Portland Jour
nal clean their own back doorstep be
fore venturing to wash that of their
neighbor. . j ' !
' VWhat a man's religion is should not
be and is not an issue, yet Mr. Craw
ford took occasion to emphasize the
long Protestant lineage of Walter
Pierce in bis published story of Pierce's
life. This showed their line of attack,
and as a part of the general scheme,
many stories have been circulated con
cerning Governor Olcott that are posi
tively false, and the only reason for
their circulation is to prey upon tl e
passions and prejudices of the ignor
ant. Let me briefly relate one or two
of these stories, and some of them
have been circulated in this commun
ity, otherwise I would Ignore them
completely. They say that Governor
Olcott is a Catholic, hiswife a Catho
lic, and bis children are attending a
Catholic school. Not that that should
make any difference, but the truthlof
the matter Is that Governor Olcott Was
raised a Methodist, his wife is 1 an
Episcopalian and his children attend
the Congregational Sunday school snd
the public schools of Salem. Further,
Governor Olcott is a York Rite Mason
and a Shriner, and there is not any
likelihood of his being kicked out! of
either organization, as is being said
about him in Moro up; in Sherman
county. It is also said in some places
that from 60 per cent to 75 per cent! of
the state employes are Catholics. 1
"This story was printed in a south
ern Oregon newspaper during the pri
mary campaign; The Catholic popula
tion of this state is about 15 per cent
of the total, snd it would seem that if
15 per cent of the employes were mem
ber of that faith, that -would be.no
more than they Jwere entitled to and
might reasonably expect. Yet a eor
respondent for one of the big Portland
daily papers made a check upon thie
report and of the 800 and more state
employes he found that only nine were
of the Catholic faith. All the reBt of
these stories are equally false. j ; '
"As I said before, religion had no
place in politics. The constitution of
the- United States and of the state of
nn rimrntpa tn everv man the
right to worship God according to the
rti.tafca rf hia own conscience : it was
for the exercise 01 this ngni wai
America was first settled, and what a
man's religion may be is not a matter
for political aeDaie. xei 1 warn 10
