DR. LANE SPEAKb ONCE MORE. Further Remarks on "Vermin" About the State Capital, Portland, October 5. (To the Ed itor) In looking over the state news In yesterday's Orcgonlan, I note the following item from Salem: "The failure of Mr. 1. L. Patterson to meet the charge made against him by Dr. Harry Lane, to the effect that he at tempted to defraud the state by palm ing off a substitute for meal furnished the Insane asylum, does not plfcs un noticed. It was expected Mr. Patter son would make a public explanation or begin libel proceedings. He has done neither, but Is reported as say ing that Dr. Lane, his accuser, as sup erintendent of the asylum, received what he sold for meal. If thlsbe true, Dr. Lane also has a charge to meet; though, ir true or not, It docs nob help Mr. Patterson's case." Mr. Patterson Isrlght.and his point Is well taken. If I willingly accepted from him adulterated food stuffs to be used at the asylum, I am willing to allow that eyen a greater degree of culpability would rest upon me than upon lilin, fori was acting under oath to protect the state from loss, and Mr. Pattereon rested under no obligations in his dealings with the state, further than such as his honor as a man and his sense of de cency would dictate. The weight with which such virtues bear down upon his conscience, I shall leave for others to estimate, after reading what fol lows. Mr. Patterson has a iaulty memory for deeds of the past, else he would not have forgotten that the cornmeal which lie delivered at the asylum came in barrels as usual, aud In the same kind of barrels as usual, with the trade marks Intact, and of the exact brand called for In his contract, j and that on knocking In tho heads of a number of these barrels, tho corn meal was there on top smiling up Into the face of man as pretty ''gold dust" cornmeal ns anyone over saw. Tho proof was apparently complete, and the cornmeal was accepted and paid for, and only after one former lot of meal became exhausted and wo began using tho .'Patterson meal did wo discover tho fraud that had been prepotrated upon us. Tho burrels had been opened from tho bottom, the good meal extracted and the bar. rcls rotllled with the exception of a six-Inch layer of good meal with an ,,'iishy-looklng mixture of God alone -knows what. Tho matter I roportcd to tho trustees, and thero It rested. One docs not look for such devices from business men. There was u trick for you, and u bit of bunco work, which for originality und neatness of design does great credit to tho Ingenuity of its author. At auy rate, it worked llko u charm, und 1 am frco to confess that It took -:o.- Tickets ! & Per Week i t i me In completely, and In consequence the poor folk at the asylum for the next six months ate some mighty poor mush. Uo doubt I should have shoved my arm Into each barrel up to the shoulder, but never before I met Mr. Patterson, nor after I met the druggist king of thieves had 1 rea son to suspect that- business men would stay up nights to dope up and adulterate original packages of mer cantile supplies. As I said before, I have no ill feel ing toward Mr. Patterson, personally; no grudge to work off upon him, but knowing him as I do, and as others perhaps do not, I have felt It my duty to my more decent neighbors to sound a note of warning. There is a horde of human scavengers who hang about oalem and fatten at the public ex pense. Mr. Patterson is but a type of the class. These gentry, not content with haviiiL' escaped the ollkial at tention of the public gaolers, and having grown sleek and well fed, be think themselves as good as honest men, and every year, from one party to another, come bobbing up for office These men are our curse, our shame and our crime. They do more dam age to tho state than all the codlin moths, hop lice and other pests com bined. They cost us more annually than do the other class of criminals who find their way into the peniten tiary. They make the poor man's children to have less food to cat, aud less clothing to wear, and shorten up the school days of innocent childhood. They arc a clog on our prosperity, and a dead weight that Is killing off the pride and patriotism of this coun try; and, so I say, 1 have felt it a duty to attempt to smoke some of this vermin out into the broad light of clay that my honorable fellow-citizens might see them as they are. There is no malice in my pen, and the commentators in yesterday's Oregon iau surmises that I will have had my "innings" If Mr. Patterson Is de feated for the otlice which lie seeks, does scant courtesy to my motives. I have no revenge to wreak on Mr. Patterson, I seek no "Innings" at any man's expenses. I pray not that Men tremble at My power of place And lordly sway I only pray for simple grace To look my neighbor in the face Full honestly trom day to day Yield me his homy palm to hold Aud I'll pray Not for gold.

EN The Oregon Horse Paces Two Miles in 419 1-4 THE GREAT GO IN DETAIL, Lester Galbraith's Story of the Race-Other Contests, At 1 oclock the grand stand was full and at 1:30 oclock It was Im possible to get a scat. The weather and track was perfect for fast racing and when the first heat of the 2:33 trot i was called fully 12,000 people watched the four horses which after racing for some time got off for the first heat. After this heat Mr. Fra gier brought out Chchallas for a short warm up, "tills first appearance for the day, when the Judge said to the crewd: "This is the great horse Chc halls," his words were approvcdj.by cheers of admiration which came from the grand stand each time he passed. After the second heat of this race Warren Martcll ammused the throng which now lined tho fence from the 1 pole far up the track past the 1th pole. When the horses were called out for the third heat a slight wind was com- log up and threatened to mar the ciwibui u.cuajr mi... ao -"'"-' .. I' t. A.... ...l.lnl. .....n tn ,.., n ..- T..n. l.nwf. .. f .l.n et 1. .. rn I n n lf President Looney the gates were thrown open and the crowd, hundreds of whom could not get a peep at the track, were allowed to go across the track and line along the fence enclos the inside of the track. It Is useless to say that this was the largest crowd that ever attended an Oregon State Fair, as nearly every one In Salem big enough to go was therc,and thousands from all.over the state and the north west. oDel Norte, a full brother of Oliehalis, made his appearance for a short "warm up" and evoked hearty cheers from the enthusiastic crowd. The fourtli heat finished and tho grand stand, at the Judge's request, became almost 'tpeechiess, the threat ening breeze had slacked, the track had been successfully put in a record breaking condition by Mr. Derby's painstaking efforts, the sky was clear blue and the hills In the background rolling blue to the snowcapped moun tains. All awaited tiie handsome Chehalis to complete the picture of an ideal racecourse. Mr. Frazier scored the beauty once and at the second score was off on his long journey, the last mile and quarter being paced by Bonbonnier ridden by Galbraith; without a skip lie went the full 2 miles. The first mile was made in 2:09, very fast, almost too fast. Old horsemen expressed grave doubts and were afraid of its telling on the next mile but the coal black gentleman was more than enough for tho occa sion, and finished breaking tho record by clipping off 31 seconds from the the world's 2 mile record. The king of tho west then returned to the front of the judge's stand and was crowned and bedecked with wreaths of beautiful llowers by Miss Ruth Ga brielsoi, the little daughter of Secre tary Gabrielson. Lester Galbraith who set pace, gives the following ac count of the race; "On the first quar ter I picked him up he was going a 2 minute clip and was fresh. Frazier from tills on kept him back and asked me to keep off, tit, the polo Frazier called on him and ho responded like a fresh horse and raised his head pull ing himself together. Frazier watched his clock closely and smiled assurance that he had tho woild's record. Ho entered the stretcli fast, I was right on his wheel. My horse was excited, Frazier asked me to keep back. Here Frazier gave him the word and touched him lightly with the whip for the last response, which Chehalis answered promptly nnd did tho last quarter llko a new horse." Mr. Galbraith deserves great credit for this wonderful teasing pace which did a great deal towards establishing a world's record. The quarters were done in the following time: First quarter 325 First half 1:0j J Tluce-quartcrs 1:37 First mile 2:09 Second quarter 2:39 Second half 3:14 Second three-quarters 3:45 Tw-j mile 4:19r OTHER EVENTS WEDNESDAY.
