Stephens, as a candidate for assessor by insinuating that he was a defaulter while school clerk of Marion county some years ago, 1 have caused an inquiry to be addressed to the people of Salem who know the facts in the case and have received many replies, all favorable to Mr Stephens, and I sub mit as many as you will have space to publish. They arc from well known and prominent men and give Mr. Ste phens a record of which any man might be protuV Il seems that Mr. Stephens was school clerk in Salem for four years «hiring which time he handled about $100,000, and while an incompetent assistant caused him some trouble with his ac counts, he settled every dollar honora bly at the end of his term, and in such a manner as to earn the esteem and confidence of the gentlemen who give him the following testimonials. It is to be hoped that this a ill he the last atlenip at starting a campaign of slander and mud throwing in this county. T. B. H andley .

I have found that a report is now go ing the rounds among the people that I am trading A. 'I’. White, our candidate for clerk, for John Edwards, the demo cratic candidate. Now I will positively state that said report is a wilful and malicious lie, as I am always for every individual candidate on the ticket on which I am nominated. John Edwards mid mvself have always been good friends, and I respect him as a gentle man, but I could not and would not down any man on my ticket, to support him or any candidate on either of the other tickets. But the voters should know, the campaign is on ami lies are in order, among the campaign liars, of which is always a general ssorliuent be fore election. Respect fully Yours, J ohn II. J ackson .

Cul verts and sms II bridges will need re placing soon to Ire safe. The Tillamook owners of the road have not seemed dis posal to do anything to improve their property, prolrahly feeling that they have already enough money in it. It would be l/etter for the read if those having claims against it would relin quish them and give the road to the counter, and it is pro I »ably as much as the lien holders will ever get out of it.— Forest Grove Times. 1 1 $u6 The foiegoing shows the style of the ad- dresses.

TALK ABOUT THE ACADEMY /LV0777ÆÆ VERSION OF THE AFFAIR. E d . H eadlight :—There are two sides to everything. Every virtue is opposed to a vice, and ever)’ poison has its anti dote. In case of a deadly poison, an effective dose of antidote is neeeded Sugar and candy will do no good. A crime must be punished to give satisfac tion to the offended party and to correct the offender The correction, according to justice, should be according to the nature of the crime. A mere lie, that might be called a “lapsus lingua?” will be punished by a corporal punishment in the academy. It depends with what the lie is connect ed. The liters stealing of a rope is not i punished by pennitentiary, hilt if the 1 rope is connected with a horse or a cow i it might he worth a trip to Salem, If a lie is connected with immorality, it de- serves a corporal punishment, even i in case of dismissing the offender from the institution. The corporal punishment is an antidote, and has nothing to do with the ladies or gentlemen, and there fore it is not called anti-lady or nnti- gentlenien, but simply niiti|>oison io ' destroy the i poison contained in the ladies and gentlemen. Pride and indulgence of the senses of the body of our first parents was the cause of concupiscence. They wanted to be like God and wanted to satisfy their bodily taste with a fine apple. Pride and the vohiptuousnessof the body were the poison and the cause of this pernicious effect, w hich effect is best cured by its antidote, humiliation and chastisement of the body, being opposed to pride ami voluptuousness of the hotly. Did you ever set the point before!! Corporal punishment contains in the best and highest degree the antidote which destroys the poison and immor ality; it contains humiliation and chas tisement of the body, absolutely requir ed to destroy that poison. Ignorance is not cured hy ignorance but by learning, nor is immorality cured by keeping Mi- lence, or allowing it or in sending Ill« pupil away. *Is there any person in Tillamook who dares to come to the academy declaring himself wiser than Solomon la?t this person come and we will have him as a teacher. You par ents might say that this is not according to American principles to correct pupils. I tell you it is not nor will it lend to the American conclusion which is the scaf fold, the electric chair, the home of the fallen women, or the penilentiary as your American principles will. Such principles are not found in the academy. You can see about twenty testimonials of this kind every day in the Oregonian. , A few days ago the superintendent of the “Open Door’’ a home for fallen women in Portland gave the following ( important statement : “Not all have been bail girls, some only needing protection and encourage ment. Home have been excellent husi- ness girls. Some have he«m cultured ladies; sonic line iniisicieiis, some Inind- some ami interesting. They have come from all grsdes of life; but they have all m I i ' ow ii the lack of a mother’s firm guid ance in the beginning of their lives.’’ This is nil aw ful indictment of moth ers of sinning women ; at the same time, it ought to be a solemn and effective warning to mothers not to shirk tVeir duty. Mothers often yield to their daughters’ importunities, out of a weak ness which (hey fancy is parential nf- fection Woiihl they give a rattle snake to a child who might he pleased with the Nmike’n mottles? That, indeed, would be a |w>sitive kindness compared with allowing your girl» Io visit many public balls unattended by their mothers. In apile of all the warnings that com» from ministers of every denomination against the moral dangers of the ball room, mothers not only allow their In nocent daughter» to frequent them, but not infrequently urge them to attend, with a false desire to thus get “theii girls into society," and so marry them off. The Tillamook academy will not turn out ladiea and gentlemen that are a dis grace to themselves, to their families and to society ; the rilles mid the guid ance liste destroy this pernicious poison of society. The academy has to be a model school in ever) line or will be given up. We want m H the parents whose children are here, to know, un derstand and to In* sure that a« long a» their dearly beloved are in the academy, they are taught, directed, protected, (Concluded on last page.) _ .____ ___
