FULTON HAS A REAL ALIBI.
Ex-C City Engineer Said He Didn't Draw
Up Filler Specifications.

W. S. Fulton, ex-city engineer, says
that the charges of Fred A. Finneran
to the effect that Fulton drew up city
asphalt filler Specifications as a copy
of the patent specifications of a fille-
company, are untrue.
In the first place Fulton declares
that the city specifications are not
drawn up according to the patents.
In the second place Fulton says the
specifications were drawn up by City
Engineer Young, now in office
Finneran is out of the city and
couldn't be interviewed. He picked UP
asphalt filler on West Eighth avenue
before he left and took the samples to
Kansas university for test purposes.
He declared before he left that Topeka
had been swindled on the asphalt filler
used on est Eighth. He said it was
poor material and did not perform its
duty in binding together the brick in
this expensive pavement but as Mr..
Fulton didn't draw the specifications
he is out of 1t.

CHARLES W. JAMES,
SUPT. STATE PENTTENTIARY.

There is no question in the minds
OF those best posted on the subject
that Charles W. James, has made one
OF the best superintendent of the
State Penitentiary that the state of
Oregon has ever had and there is a
very generally expressed sentiment
that he should be retained in his
present position regardless Of politics.
simply because his administration
has been along progressive and hui
name lines and the affairs of the
institution conducted in a manner
highly satisfactory to the people as
a whole Mr. James is a gentleman
OF ripe judgment and wide expert
ence, Of culture and refinement and
unquestionably has a strong influence
for good In handling men committed
to the penitentiary. He also has
fine executive ability and thoroughly
capable Of handling even much more
complex affairs than confront him
as superintendent OF the penitentiary.
Before being appointed TO his present
position eight years ago Mr.. James
was member of the school board at
Baker City. and was member OF
board Of regents Of the Eastern Ore
gon Normal school. He has always
taken an active interest in education
al matters. He was recorder of
Baker County and one Of the most
popular men in Eastern Oregon. His
selection for place under the state
administration was highly pleasing
to his many friends and acuualnt-
ances, who will be pleased should he
be retained-which he certainly will
be II public sentiment already ex-
pressed is carefully considered. Dur
ing his residence In Salem Mr.. James
has made many warm friends who
would willingly go to almost any
length In his behalf and there seems
pretty thorough understanding in
the minds OF those who watch affairs
closely that he will succeed himself
as superintendent Of the state peni.
tentiary.
