From The oregonian Too

the committee of one hundred reports

mas N. strong was chairman the follow.
iug IN regard to ]. a. Ackerman now the
candidate on the republican ticket for
superintendent Of public instruction.
This paragraph was At the close OF lite
report on the American Book Company |
which was characterized 90 an unscru-
pulous and even infamous organization,
The paragraph relating to the repuo
lican nominee is a. follows:
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT AS we IN
formed you in our last report, J. d. Ack-
ern,an. the county superintendent was
appointed principal OF the Harrison
street public school, giving up. appar-
emily, larger salery for less one. The
motive of this move still remains good
deal of mystery to us. It was susges-
ted by witnesses before Us that the origi.
nal plan was to appoint one Of the PIES
ent school directors deputy county su-
perintendent. Il this arrangement was
ever contemplated the publicity given to
the recent changes has compelled lie
abandonment. For come time it was
understood, and, We believe upon the
authority OF Mr.. Akerman himself it was
announced that he was to resign the
county superintendsncy, upon taking
charge of the school. The appointment
lof his successor would them be in the
county court. An active canvas for the
Office naturally commenced, and I. h
Crawford and f. G. Young appeared te
be leading candidates for the prospects

occurred, and nothing more was heArt
OF the proposed recognition. But Mr.
Alderman appointed @. W. Gantenoein

saining in himself both OF the oficea q

An effort has made to make political
capital by charging W. r. King with be.
log an enemy of the stale militia. This
is not true at all, and as matter of fact
there is no more patriotic citizen in Ore
