THE OREGON ELECTION.

If the completed totals show, as in
dictated by the partial figures, thai
Governor George z. Chamberlain has
carried the state of Oregon as the PEG
pies choice for governor, the Webfoot
Republican party will have no rea'
cause of. complaint. Henry NJ. Cake
who ran as the Republican nominee
for senator against Governor Cham
berlain, is an admirable gentleman
who is one Of Portland's leading law
yers. Outside of his profession he is
unknown. In il his standing is high.
Judge Cake, under normal conditions
would never have been selected as a
candidate by the leaders of the Re
publican party of Oregon. Party needs
required a man of higher ideals than
Senator Fulton, and Cake was selected
to beat him in the Republican prima-
ries for the party nomination for SEN
ator. Judge Cake was able to do this
with seeming ease. though the old
gang OF land thieves and all around
rascals made a desperate fight for the
retention of Fulton.
In oregon the people this year vote
direct for senator under a provision of
the last legislature known locally as
Statement No. l." This statement,
to which a large number of candidates
Tor the legislature have announced
allegiance. carries with it a promise on
the part of the legislator. if elected, TO
vote for the candidate for United
States senator who receives the largest
popular vote at the polls in a regular
election; in other words. the aspirant
for senatorial honors is first chosen by
the people and then confirmed by the
legislature. Whether Statement No.
l" Legislators will prodominate at the
coming session of the legislature is a
question which may not be determined
until the last vote is counted If
they do predominant - and they
probably will-the Republican legis-
lature of Oregon will he morally
obligated to elect a Democrat as Unit
ed States senator.

Then the trusts. having due regard

know. as everybody knows, that the
next session of congress is going to do
something to the tariff. If II is Re

rearranged in about the ratio of cam
paign contributions. What would any
tariff -fattened trust do under such cir
cumstances? What could IL do but
come up handsomely with a check for
the Republican national committee?
Take a concrete case in point. The
paper trust has just been favored by
Speaker Cannon and his select Mann
committee, which postponed any ac-
ton on the demand OF the newspaper
publishers for the removal of the tariff
on print paper and wood pulp. The
action of the committee is worth some
millions of dollars TO the makers OF

prophetic genius to foretell what will
happen to the paper trust when the
Republicans intimate gently. but firm
ly. that a campaign contribution will
be received kindly; and any politician
knows what would happen to the duty
on paper if the trust failed to come
through"
No wonder the Republicans defeated
the bill for publication of campaign
contributions and expenses. They need
the money.

TIME TO TELL THE TRUTH.

After several weeks of delay the city
council has again postponed action on
the proposal to ask approval of a $500.
600 bond issue. Thursday has been set
for the next discussion of the matter
and the councilmen show the same joy
at approaching the ordeal that the
small boy shows when he sees his
mother waiting for him at the front
door with a bunch of switches.
There's a reason for all this DELAY.
for the shuffiing and evasion: the city
finances are in a bad way and the ad-
ministration hasn't had the courage to
say so. Instead it has suggested an
extraordinary bond issue and let II be
understood that the proceeds were 10
be used for new improvements, when.
as matter OF fact, at least half OF the
100000 IS needed to I'LL up the hole in
the treasury made by last years ex-
travagance. Apparently the council be
heves the public has neither the intel
hgence nor the energy to discover
when il is being buncoed, but past ex-
perience has taught the people of Salt
Lake to be wary when the "Ameri-
cans begin to talk finance. In last
falls campaign the administration de-
clared the city's finances were 'in far
better condition than when the Amer
lean" administra ton took charge. The
simple truth then was that the city
had assumed obliga tions beyond its in
come and was hound to end the year
with the largest deficit it had ever
known.
Now that il is not longer possible to
conceal the facts. the administration
makes an appeal to the patriotism"
OF the citizens for bonds. but carefully
conceals, so far as il is able, the real
reason for the appeal When A bust
ness man asks a bank 10 lend him
money he expects to make a genuine
statement OF his resources and liabiIi-
ties. but the city proposes TO ask a
vote of confidence and power to ne
gotiate a very large loan and refuses
10 make a plain. honest statement of
its financial condition. Very naturally.
the citizens look on the proposal with
suspicion, and viii probably refuse to
sanction the bond issue; and II the
issue fails it will be because the man
ayers of municipal affairs have not
been frank with the stockholders. the
property owners Of Salt Lake.
If the council is wise enough to real
ize its situation IT will begin on A new
tack and take the people into its con-
fdence with an exact and complete
statement of city finances. II will tell
what il owes. what it has contracted
for, what its overdraft is and what it
may expect from This years taxes. It
will explain what It really intends to
do with the bond proceeds in case the
issue is authorized. and II will abandon
its pretense that the treasury is in
good shape and that the bonds are
wanted for new improvements.
Possibly. with a frank statement OF
the situation. the property owners
might vote for bonds, though il is late
in the day for such hope But it is
that no bonds will ever be
until the administration is
ready To tell the truth about its own
affairs. Having been induced to pur.
chase a gilded brick at the last city
election, the voters are in no mood to
repeat the process.

Why is it women will condone in
a man the faults other men find
hard to excuse?
1t cannot be called broad mind

ever extends to the woman who
has sinned.
1t Is not ignorance, for a man S
misdemeanors are the first things
related by women when talking
about the men of their acquaint-
ance.
When, then, is the peculiar quirk
In the feminine mind that illumnes
mmen's sins with halo of ro-
nance?
To the average man this is one
of the strangest traits of that most
strange thing. woman's mind.
When a man forbids his wife to
invite that cad" to the house again
and she innocently asks him why
not. he can only fume and rage in
wardly.
She knows why, and he knows
she knows. but he also knows she
condones the very things which
brought the "cai" into disrepute

Brothers have urged( times with
out number, the spotted reputation
OF some man as ample and sufficient
reason why sister should cut his &C

Does she? Not much! From that
moment the man wears a borrowed
interest In her eyes. He becomes
another Byron, misunderstood and
with no good woman's hand to
guide him. She loses no opportunity
of meeting him AMI showing there

CHAPTER VII.

Although Jane Malley had not
been accused of participation in the
death of Montgomery Stone, there
were many who thought seriously
of her possible guilt. The chagrin
and disappointment that must have
been hers when she heard of the
sudden loss of the Stone fortune
and the great blow to Theodore's
future by the factory fire that
morning. combined with a possible
feeling of deep revenge toward
Montgomery, suggested to them a
motive for crime.
But Jane herself apparently was
wholly unconscious of the doubts
which wer rising around her. Her
two lawyers were heavy-hearted on
the morning of Quintus Cakes ar
rival in Salsport. A consultation
was held by the three. Jane, too,
was present and told what she
knew of the murder and of her con-
sternation at meeting Theodore in
the room.
Little progress was made in the
next two days. Prosecution and
defense were alike cropping in the
dark, accommodating great amount
of information which might or
might not be of value to the case.
Cakes men, of within there were
several in town, reported that the
state was baffled, and that the
medical examination had been
stunning blow to the prosecution,
for it had been determined that
Montgomery Stone was dead when
the dagger entered his breast
Quintus Cakes and Troop were
well aware of the fact. The amount
of blood spilled was most trifling,
although the dagger had gone
through the chest.
By unmistakable signs, it had
been found that the heart was full
of blood. AS the examiner stated
the man died as the heart was
resting between beats, in diastole";
AMI that was most unusual in death
by violence and in death by hemor-
rhage or shock. Again, the knife
had pierced the lung and cut part
of the great artery, the aorta, and
yet even internally there was no
real bleeding,
The heart was fearfully distended
as though suddenly stretched, and
death had come before the ven
tricles had contracted to empty the
overloaded chambers.
He had died, not from shock or
external violence, or disease, yet.
as science could state most posi-
lively, he had died just before the
dagger pierced his heart.
Martin had written long special
articles to his New York papers.
detailing the curious fact that the
dagger had pierced a dead mans
chest, and limiting at great sur
prises, great evidence in possession
of the defense.
During these days of uncertainty
the two reporters sent to watch the
case for the city papers became IA
miliar figures in the town, especial
ly the tall one named Parker, whom
every one declared was a hand
some, agreeable fellow, with a
knack of making himself thorough
ly companionable without saying
very much. He took copious notes
for his paper. and was always will
ing to listen to the theories ex-
pounded byo theirs. Perhaps had
the citizens been less in earnest
about their theories they might
have sometimes suspected him of
inattention at those very times
when he was most silent. Parker.
otherwise Cakes, was endeavoring
to recall something. While the citi-
Gems talked. he was in pursuit of a
memory. The wide education OF
