New YOrk's Disgrace.

The election of Gov. SulZer, of New York, no matter by whom brought about or the cir cumstances surrounding his public life, must be pronounced positive disgrace to the Elm pire state. Even his warmest friends and stoutest defenders confess that he is wholly unfit ted for the position. Ex-Sena- tor Hinman, who was the leader in the defense of Gov. Sulzer, made a painful admission in his opening speech, when he said:
 "The respondent is a plain, affable man, easy to approach, and a man who, until the year 1913, never made enemies. He has never had any business edu- cation or experience. Practl- cally all of his time since in the sos has been taken up with hls duties as a legislator, either in the assembly of the state or m the house of representatives. While a lawyer by profession, about the only evidence of that fact, as one witness stated 1t, IS that he had law office. He ne- yer kept books of accounts or records of his transactions. lie is exceedingly careless and un- methodical. Details are some thing to which he is almost a stranger. ]
 A man who is a lawyer, but never practiced law; who nev- CT had any business education or experience, who never kept books or accounts or records ot his transactions, who was ex7; ceedingly careless and unmeth- odical, and who was a total stranger to details, should not have been elevated to the re- sponsible position of governor of the Empire state, and would not have been but for the cor rupt politics that obtains there, and in which he was a shining light and lifelong beneficiary. When such men are elevated to positions of trust and responsl- bility there is something funda- mentally wrong that ought to be remedied.-Memphis News Scimitar.

Financial ReyerSes.

Then her father met with SERIOUS
financial reverses and she came 10
Oregon to make her own way in the
world and help support her brothers
and sisters. For a time she was a
Soyerness in the home OF J. Wesley
Ladd In Portland. But she wanted to
get out in the commercial world, so
she bought a typewriter and a book
on stenography and IN spare moments
mastered them.
1t was not long until she was the
private stenographer for the president
OF the Title Guarantee 6; Trust COM
pany Of Portland. IN which, the
Ladds were interested. While there
she had what she says was the most
trying experience OF her life. AS con-
fidante OF the president OF the insti-
tuition, she went through the storm of
a bank failure and investigation. And
IT was the loyalty, pluck and spirit
displayed during those turbulent
weeks that opened the way for her
TO win her $4,000 position,
All this time she was stenographer
In the bank she also kept house for
her younger brother and sister, and
on the side studied law. Her ambi-
ton had not been satisfied with the
attainment OF stenograDhy.

then employed as stcnographer 10 tho
like OF the man who was trying to
find something wrong with the
transactions OF her former employer.
Her dislike OF him and her loyalty to
and spirited defense OF the bank
caused Olcott TO take particular no.

One day he met Judge Martin L.
Pipes, her law tutor.

"Yes"

Judge Pipes. but ] know she IS one

When the bank investigation was

with the Ladd Estate company, one
OF the wealthIest corporations in Ore

campaign manager for Oswald West
