HEADQU ARTERs DEPT. OF THE COLUMBIA,
VANCOUVER BARRACKS, w. T.
I,n,,r,, .snth 1904


Some three weeks since there appeared in
the editorial columns of the Oreyonian
short paragraph attributing in the most
positive terms poor McKenzes lamentable
mental condition to the excessive use of in
toxicating drink. The statement greatly
shocked very many army people who knew
Mckenzie's record for twenty-five years to
be that of an exceptionally abstemious
man. Many of us knew that for quite a
long period prior to the announcement of
his insanity, there had been occasional evil
dences of disturbed mental condition, but
these were universally and correctly attrib-
uted to the effect of wounds received IN ac-
ton. and OF other severe bodily injuries he
had received in service But the statement
was SO positive, and seemed to be given
with such assurance of special kporledye in
the premises that | for one thought Gen.
Mckenzie might have resorted to stimulants
in the hope of relief from great physical
suffering during the last few months while
sane, but yet with MUD and body weak
eued by the causes which later developed
his present state. Still it was very difficult
to think even this much against the gallant
young fellow, with a record splendid and
correct in many ways for so long a period,
and | determined to make inquiry from such
source as would give me the absolute truth
IN the matter.
In reply to such inquiries | am just in re-
ceipt of a letter from Gen. Vincent OF the
Adjutant Generals Department. who had
been serving in the most intimate capacity
and relations with Mckenz for a long
time previous to the elimination of his
mental troubles, and who during the past
seven years has been III such position as to
know absolutely in regard to the truth or
falslty OF the information upon which the
OreJOn6tns editorial was based.
He tells me-and no one will doubt the
accuracy of his statement who knows him
personally or by reputatlon-that the ore
g0HiIHS informaut's informttion was wholly
incorrect, without the slightest foundation
IN fact.

In connection with this matter the Ore

lowing editorial note:
We have it on the authority of General
Greene of Vancouver that the statement
heretofore published as to General Mcken-
zie. attributng his insanity tn the use OF in
toxicating liquors, is ascertalned ON in
curry to be without any kind of founda
tion. His disturbed mental condition is
known to be due to the effect of wounds re-
ceived in action aud in other severe bodily
injuries received in service. General Greene
bears testimony to the record of Mckenzie
for twenty-five years As that OF an excep
tlonally abstemious man.

SPRING EMIGRATION. The agent of the
immigration bureau in Portland reports
average arrivals by steamer from San Fran
cisco about $50, of which 100 come in the
steerage and 80 in the cabin Most of the
arrivals by steamer are ranchers from the
northwestern part of Texas, Arizona, New
Mexico, Nevada and California, and few
from New Zealand All have a good supply
of funds. Immigration over the Northern
Pacific railroad for the past few months is
confined principally to Scandinavians and
Germans from Minnesota, Wisconsin, Mich
igan and Iowa Most of them express
strong aversion to the severe cold and heavy
SHOWS, and have chosen homes within thirty
or forty miles of Portland, generally on
timber land, which they propose to clear.
They have settled on Lewis river, near
Washeugal and La Camas, Clarke Co., back
of St Helens and Columbia City, and in
Clackamas county. Nearly every man
is mechanic, who will seek work during
the summer, and will clear his place in
winter

Our Old Men.

Mr.. 10 Douglas, still an active far.

old. He was born in 1902, and cast
bis first vote for jackson, in 1924, at
which time there was no election be~
fore the people. Adams was elected
in the House. There are several older
men than Mr.. Douglas in this county,
who doubtless voted in Presidential
elections previous to Jackson's first
race.
Mr.. r. Spurlock, of DeKalb
county, informs us that he, Jerry
Sulans and Harden Cantrell of his
county, voted for jackson and for
Cleveland. Mr.. Spurlock does not
give the age or the years in which
they voted for jackson.
Asa Faulkner, Esq, was born in
1902, and consequently 50 years of
age, and still able to attend to business.
He voted his first vote 60 years ago
for jackson, 1924, and for President
in the recent election Of 1884.

Patronize Your Railroads.

Notwithstanding Warren county has
ample corn to supply the local demand
and to spare, corn is being shipped
from Marshall county to this place.
In the spring our surplus, which ought
to be consumed at home, will probably
be to shipSouth. Shipping both ways,
however, gives your railroads employ
ment. While our corn crop is not
large in this county, we have ample to
supply the demand. Consumers pre-
fer to patronize home farmers, but so
long as they can bring it from neigh
boring counties for less than they can
buy at home it is very nature! to do
so.
