J. W. Davcnport'8 Misstatements
Corrected-The Ballots Printed
on Colored Paper.
Ed. Capital Jeurnal: In your
issue of May 21st, I notico that Mr.
Davenport comes forward with
glaring head lines, and consures tho
citizons of Sllverton, and especially
tho city council for doing their duty.
Ho also makes several statements
that aro unjust and untrue. To
prove tlint Mr. Davenport's state
ments nro false and unfounded, and
to shield our most respeetablo citi
zens from tho dirt and slander ho
seeks to heap on them, I will stnto
facts that I can vouch for.
Mr. Davenport says. ' 'The ballots
used by tho prohibitionists wero
made of paper furnished bv tho
secretary of state for tho purpose, as
tho law directs, and that thero was
no mark or color on the tickets by
which to distinguish them from
other legal ballots."
Tho paper used by tho prohi
bitionists did como from' tho secre
tary of state, but not for tho pur
pose of using it at tho lato municipal
election held In this city. It was
bought for the purposo of replacing
some that had been used by Guild
& Adams, (then proprietors of tho
Sllverton Appeal) for printing honey
labels, for E. S. Brooks; this Mr.
Guild will say is correct, and tho
statement above will bo suftlclent to
couvinco any one that Mr. Daven
port's statement was false.
Again: Mr. Davenport ac
knowledges in his artfclo, that the
law requires the use of "plain white
paper." Will Mr. Davenport tako
one of tho citizens tickets and one of
tho prohibition tickets, placo them
siuo by siae, ana say, that tho pro
hibition ticket was printed on "plain
white paper," and stoop to utter
such a falsehood as to say, that ho
or any one elso could not distinguish
one ticket from tho other1? I mall
you with this article, somo of each
kind of paper used at our election,
and I hopo all tho good prohibition
ists and all others Interested, will
call at tho Journal olllco and tako
a look at it, and when Mr. D. comes
around howling "fraud"! and stuff
ing "Louisiana methods" into tho
minds of our people, glvo him tho
G. B. Mr. D. had better look at tho
paper again and then como out liko
a man, and acknowledgo his mis
statement.
Mr. D. speaks of somo of tho "col
ored ballots" "as having been
scratched, and tho names of candi
dates on tho citizens' ticket iiiHcr
ted." Hero ho himself says that
colored paper was used. Don't
squirm, Tim, for this is tho reason
that tho prohi's ballots wero thrown
out. and this you know to bo tho
truth. Therefore tho wholo prohi
all those "illegal" "brown pa
per votes" were not counted and
the prohis were left. And now Mr.
Davenport goes through tho coun
try and asserts things no knows aro
false. Ho tries to make tho outside
world beliovo that tho majority of
citizens of Sllverton aro a terribly
bad set of mon, (especially tho coun
cil) and to these gentlemen, Mr.
Davenport has fallen so low, as to
try to heap crime upon their shoiil
dors. There in not a muu in our
council but Is thoncerof Mr. Dav
enport In honesty. I, for one do not
want to sec good, honest citizens ac
cused of a wrong that was never
done, and that Mr. Davenport knows
was no ver done, ami that nine-tenths
of our citizens will say, Is false. Mr,
Davenport is slandering our best
citizens perhaps to accomplish somo
political ond. Chamro vour words
of slander, and don't try and make
tho people believe that Sllverton la a
city of crime and dishonesty. Tako
sides with somo party, democrat,
Crohl or somo othor party, and don't
o "a crank" and as soon as you
turn "truo blue." ovory one will
wish you well. But slander and
misrepresentation will never win.

TELEGRAPHIC SUMMARY.
THE COLEMAN FAILURE.
Tho
Assets of tho Firm Greatly
ceed tho Liabilities.
Es-
San Francisco, May 21. Tho as
signees for W. T. Coleman & Co.
mado publlo this afternoon tho state
ment of tho assets and liabilities of
tho suspended firm. Tho values
wero estimated by Coleman himself,
but tho assignees say that they aro
most conservative. In many cases
tho figures of the assets havo been
materially reduced by him to keep
them far within tho amounts that
could be obtained upon a forced sale.
Two schedules have been prepared,
one of the firm and tho other of tho
property of Coleman personally.
Tho assets of the firm nro $1,707,-
138 27. Coleman's personal assets
aro $1,887,031. Tho total assets aro
$3,505,009 27.
Tho liabilities of tho firm aro $2,
0G0.0S3 95. Tho personal liabilities
aro $50,009 22. Tho total liabilities
aro $2,910,093 17.
Tho excess of tho assets over tho
liabilities is $070,070 10.
A Judgo Behind tho Age.
San Francisco, May 24. Says a
local paper this evening: "Tho
Washington territory law establish
ing woman suilYago has again been
decldedunconstitutional on a techni
cality. As tho Judge bases his opin
ion on tho Dred Scott decision, that
nas long ucen a synonym oi reproacn
to tho American bench, ho estab
lishes his qualifications for private
mo ooyonu insputo."
Death From Strychnine.
Louisa Sttce, thn adopted child
and nelco oT Mr. B. Hunsakcr, liv
ing below tho city about three miles,
died Monday night from tho cllects
of strychnine. Tho child had been
warned of tho dangerous drug on a
shelf in tho closet, but her childish
inquisitlvenoss led her to reach for
it and as sho said "sho wanted to
see how It tasted," sho did so and
tho result was suro death. Mr. and
Mrs. B. Hunsaker aro an aged coup
le, their own children grown, and
they adopted Httlo Louise to cheer,
comfort and make their homo pleas
ant In tholr declining years. Her
death Is a sovoro blow to them as
they loved her as their own. Tho
child's funeral took placo in this city
yesterday afternoon. Baker City,
May 23d.
Tho Kind of n Mini Wiintri.
Tho right kind of a candidate lias
been discovered hi Alabama. Just
after having announced himself u
caudidutc for congress and while
standing on tho court-house steps
making a speech, some one in tho
crowd yelled:
"Say, what do you think of tho
tiirlfl? Glvo us your views."
"My friends," said tho orator, "I
don't know a blnmo tiling about tho
tarlir."
Ho was elected by a largo major
ity. Arkansaw Travolet".
