cate of the splendid gravity water
system which has recently been in
stalled in Pendleton. lie has always

soutely honest, absolutely conscien.
tious, absolutely truthful. His every

THEY MAKE PUBLIC
BOOTHS OPPOSITION
TO CIVIC WELFARE

Eugene, Or, Nov. 1.-The Lane coun-
ty Democratic managers, being without
a paper in this county, (the Eugene
Guard which has heretofore supported
the Democratic ticket having flopped
suddenly to R. A. BOOTH, this morning
published in the morning paper, a page
advertisement, in which it is declared
that r. A. Booth is friend of big
interests, opposed to municipal owner.
ship of public utilities in his home city,
that he patroni2es private corporation
furnishing lights instead of the city's
plant, and that he always opposes de.
velopment and betterment Of utilities
necessary to the upbuilding of the city
of Eugene.
Showing how the Booth. Kelly Lum.
ber company and Booth have opposed
the city, and endeavored to hamper it
in the construction of its municipal
plant, the following account of an in.
junction suit instituted against the city
by the company is given;
About Water Plant
"In 1907 the city of Eugene voted
to sell 100000 bonds with which to
install a municipal water plant; $l40,
600 Of this sum was used for the pur.
pose Of purchasing the old water plant
from the Willamette Valley company,
and the balance was used for the pur.
pose of building power ditch and
power plant on the Mckenzie. The
bonds Were dated January l, 1905"
October 10, 1909, the Booth. Kelly
Lumber company, of which R. A. Booth
was manager, filed an injunction suit
in the circuit court of Lane county,
Oregon, against the city of Eugene and
its Officers, to enjoin the city from
diverting, retaining, OBTAINING or in.
terfering with the water Of the McKen.
zie river.
The amended complaint in this
suit, and upon which the case was
tried was filed March g. 1911, after the
city had spent large sums Of money in
the construction of its power plant and
water system. This case was tried in
the circuit court Of Lane county. The
court decided in favor of the city.
60 The Booth-Kelly Lumber company
appealed the case to the supreme court
OF the state and the case was decided
by the supreme court in favor Of the
city on December II, 1913. The case
was heard in the supreme court and
decided long after the city had spent
Approximately 100000 on its water
and light system. This was dc.
termined effort on the part Of the
ooth.Relly Lumber company to hold
up the city Of Eugene, and defeat the
construction aud equipment of the nee.
essary power plant, which operates the
water and light plant of the city,"
Booth has been one Of the staunchest
supporters Of the corporation, refusing
to patroni2o the municipal light plant
up to the present time, although about
20 per cent Of the residents of Eugene
are its regular patrons.

Explains Chicken Incident.
4 4 X = 4 x = 4 x i X x 4 x X ,

Editor Capital Journal: In regard to
the article in the Daily journal of
recent date, thought that in justice
to my self and the parties concerned
| should make statement as 10 facts.
l admit have my failings but as to
hooking chickens L am not of that
caliber. The chickens that were said
to be STOLEN from H. 9. Mcdowell were
gotten from the slaughter house of the
Cross Meat Market of this city.
The parties involved in this, remarked
to Henry Wolfe, the butcher Of said
firm, that Mr.. Cross would object, and
he, Wolfe, said "no" that it was
alright and the parties relied on the
reliability of his word as TO his per-
sonal rights, being associated with the
firm as he is. There was no intent Of
stealing in the matter. myself fur
nished some from home for the social
gathering at Mr.. VOTES apartments.
There were several married men in
the party with the unmarried "guys".
One of the boys Of the Ed. Earl
family told Mr.. Mcdowell that his
chickens were being stolen and he
s'wore out the warrants claiming that
the chickens Henry WUlfc, said would
be alright to have) were his. Later
on Mr.. Mcdowell had tho ease dropped,
as he saw more clearly into the matter.
Remarking no special ;Jilme be laid On
one. The Few chickens Henry Tofe
supplied, and what / furnished. were
cooked and eaten hy us all. The hoys
offered to pay Mr.. Mcdowell for tie
chickens nut h, refused to accept it

JUDGE VIM. GALLOWAY
Candidate for Justice of the Supreme Court New Judge
Of the Third Judicial District

The three hold.over Justices of the
Oregon Supreme Court are Republicans
There are four Justices to be elected
this year. Other things being equal, it
is right and proper, in view Of the i'm.
partial balance which should be estab
hshed and maintained in this tribunal,
that the four to be elected should not
all be members of the majority party.
In 1904 Judge Galloway was one Of
the Democratic nominees for circuit
Judge Of the Third Judicial District,
comprising Linn, Marion, Polk, Tilla
nook and Yamhill counties--all strong
ly Republican. He was elected, carry
ing four of the five counties. In 1910
as candidate for reelection, he made
no other campaign than that Of his
record in office, The result was that
he received the highest vote Of any Of
the four candidates, carried decisively
over every one Of the five counties,
overcame Republican plurality Of ut
least $500, and was elected with more
than 1900 votes to spare.
Judge A. s. Bennett the well.known
lawyer of The Dolles has recently
written:
81 have known Judge Galloway inti.
mately for more than forty years and
have never found a better man. In
both private and public life he is above
suspicion or reproaeh, In his home, az
a husband aud father, he is ideal
Truthfully has It been said Of Judge
Galloway, He has in more than one
instance in the past shown that he has
the courage Of Dis convictions in diff.
cult positions and that he has made
a record for honesty and courage, He
always does his duty az he sees It, re.
gardless Of consequences and is abso.
lutely inyulnerable to pressure or
