The following statement has been
made by Frank c. Baker, In regard
10 the ownership Of the state print

property, and which has been dis
puted in part by several persons who
make claim that they know the
status of the plant. The statement
OF Mr.. Baker is herewith printed in
full:
Portland, Or. Nov. II, 1906
To the Editor.-Quite a heading you
put on your writeup concerning the
state printing office agitation. For
example: Says Baker Hasn't Plant

Friends. The fellow who writes
heads for The Journal is certainly
on to his Job.
Mr. w. II. Leeds. my successor
as state printer. put in quite lot of
new type lover $4,000 WORTH during
his term. in which had a 20 per
cent interest; and at the end of his
term when we settled up our affairs
became sole owner of his interest
therein. As to Mr.. Whitney, the
present state printer, the only inter
est he has in the state printing office
printing materials is an electric mo-
tor, which he added to the plant with
the understanding that II should be
his own property
"As another proof that own the
above plant, and that he considers
I. worth something, permit me to
remark that Mr.. Duniway made me
an offer exactly as follows: 4 will
give you $500 for your printing ma
terials known as the state printing
plant; $500 down. balance on or
before one year at 6 per cent; pro-
vided. however. that II I should be
placed on a salary. you are to re.
turn to me all the money shall have
paid you less 500 a month rental.
And he even went so far as to go Ia
Salem and examine the plant and
prepare an itemized list OF the ma
terials, which was to be a part OF the
bill Of sale.
For the present, let the above
suffice. My next theme will be the

The two most important laws en-.
acted by the present congress were
First. The law permitting the
manufacture OF "denatured" acohol
The meaning OF the word "depatur-
ed" as applied TO alcohol is alcohol
so treated that e shall be unfit for
use as an intoxicant beverage, but
that II may be employed as fuel in
producing light, heat and power. A
gallon OF denatured alcohol can be
manufactured from potatoes very
cheaply and is more valuable for
fuel than the best refined petroleum
or gasoline. In Germany last year

become one OF the worlds greatest
blessings. Already steps are in pro.

Second. The next important en-
aotment OF congress was the pure
food bill. It's purpose Is to prohibit
the manufacture and sale OF adulter-
ated foods and subjects meats and
canned goods to strict government

provided in an amendment to the

Ann Boyd is a character one
may meet only once in fct ion.
Single handed she fights the
battle of injured womanhood.
She t rdily faces the conven-

home town, and at last wins out.
And strangely enough, her grim
triumph is brought about by the
happy romance of her enemy's
daughter. There is real clash
in this story of feminine rivalry.
1t is woman against woman, and
both women win.
