DENIES
CHARGE
Wade by Kay That He Prom
ised the Latter His
Support
.The matter of the speakership of
the next legislature ls coming apaco
with oonalderabla animation and
warmthi AIs Intimated yesterday, Mr.
Gjahiami has come out In an Interview
staUne his side of the case. The
statements from his polnit of view
seem bo Justify hlLs position, and tiho
wholio controversy brings to mind a
number of similar features In the his
tory of Oregdn legislator. Many
years ago one A. N. Gilbert "Big
Andy" -siat In the legislature from
this comity anil became a candidal
for speaker. Ho would have won out
but for the opposition of one of his
colleagues;, and thils resulted In the
election of Geoigo W. McBrlde. The
recailt was largely inlluentlal in shap
ing the political aspect in Oregon for
manly years, aa Mr. McBrlde after
wards became iseoretary of state,
United! States senator and! world's
fair comrmssloner. Some years later
Hon. T. T. Geer woe a candidate for
speaker, when 'the astute Tllmon Ford,
his colleague, thought best to trans-
GRAHAM
for that office of pru tige to Multno- j dear of work and responsibility, and
mah county. The result is welH Mr. Kay, who was chairman of this
Icnown. 'committee, was severely censured
A similar condition existed two 'and criticized on a number of matters
yeaip ago when Mr. Kay of this coun
ty declined his support to Frank) Da
vey. In the light of these facts, It is
evident that Mr,
Graham's position Is
not a newi one.
Mr. Graham's Interview.
Mr, Graham said
(
"It is certainly to be regretted that
owing to a misunderstanding that has
arisen between Hon. T. B. Kay and
mycelt in regard'to his candidacy for
tlhe speakership of the house that he
should rush into print and endeavor
to place me in a bad light before the
people of Marlon county.
"The Marlon county delegation was
called together by Mr. Kay to meet at
Salem on Monday the 8th Inst., but as
1 did not know there was a meeting
called for that date I went Into the
country on business, and tho first in
timation I had of ai meeting was when
Mr. Kay 'phoned mo that there would
bo a meeting and asked me to return.
It was impossible for me to return
before nearHy 4 o'clock, and then found
that Hon. J. S. Kitohle and' Hon. J. H.
Settlemler were the only members
that bad been at my office, but owing
If you knew the facts about
Schilling's Best, you wouldn't
bother with anything else in

WTrf. SetWlcr flftfif Prelum on
the evening train, I did not have an
opportunity of discussing the matter
with him' at lencth. and onln- hmi
conversation with Mr. Ritchie In re
gard to the matter. I do not consider
there has been! any meeting of the
whole delegation, and there certainly
was not one held at my office as
stated in yesterday's Statesman.
"Mr. Kay Is laboring under a mis
understanding when he says I pledged
myself to .support him, and I regret
very much that he has construed the
conversation I had with him Into a
pledge. I have never been accused,
excep'lng by Mr. Kay, of not keeping
irty word, and when I agree to do a
thing I always aland by It.
"I do not wish to be understood
that I ami opposed to the election of
Mr. Kay, because I think it would
redound to the bonteflt of Marlon
county if he Wtere elected. But I
think should Mr. Kay not be success
ful, and1 .1 can only, say I trust ho will
land the coveted prize, that Marion
county's Interests would best bo
served by having one of its delega
tion in a position to do some good for
the county. I Intend looking out for
the Interests of Marlon county first,
and -Kay and Graham next.
"I am not taking the position I
have with the promise of any reward,'
and Mr. Kay told mo yesterday he had
been misquoted lnl regard to the state
ment he had made In regard to the
fchatrmars5Hp of tho ways and means
coinmltteo, and ho also denies the
statement In 4ast night's Journal. The
chairmanship of a committee such as
the one mere'doncd entails a great
that camie up before that committee.
"Mr. Kay's statement that I am
sacrificing ithe Interests of Marlon
county for Multnomah county. Is hard
ly worth con.ldaiiing, as I have the
Interests of Marlon county at heart
and her Interests are mine first, last
,
and all tho timie, but Mr. Kay must
not ithink he Is all of Marion county.
" Mi'. Kay two years ago pefused
his support to Hen. Frank Davcty, ot
Marion county, who was a candidate
for Speakership of tlira house at that
time, and he did net ooniJdor then
that the beat plan was for the Marlon
county delegation to bo united, but
'ho does ithink so now, and because he
ib a cannraaie ior speaKer. in oiner
words, Mr. Kay looks at the matter
wholly differently thnn he did two
years ago.
"I am not taking the position I Jo
with the hope of a traitor's reward
from tho successful candidate, should
he noti bo from Marlon county. I am
taking this position from what I con.
aider to bo tho broader view of Ma
rlon county's time Interests.
"In case Mr. Kay should not bo
successful, I still hope to be in a po
sition to not only materially assist
Marlon cour.it y, but possibly Mr. Kay
as well"
Back to the Jungle.
As otated. in yesterday's Journal,
Governor Chamberlain had under con
sideration the matter of permitting
the murxleVcd', Frank Grrgllemo, to re
iturn to the Mu'itfromah county JJail
unrtiil the supreme court will huvo de
cided in tire matter' of a stay of exe
cution, His excellency has deeldedb
that under tho statute the prisoner
must be returned, and therefore this
morning Superintendent C. W. James
started for Portland with tho young
