The Ramsey Incident

The public has had sufficient time to digest
the school boards statement. So far citizens
still hold to their theory that Principal Ramsey
was not shown very much courtesy in being dis
missed summarily and without due notice.
The boards statement has not dispelled the
resentment that is felt generally over the tactics
that were employed. Citizens were expecting
the school board to cite the specific incidents in
which Ramsey had shown disloyalty to Super
intendent Giles and the school boards. The public
wanted facts not generalities, and what seemed
to be an effort to evade the point at issue.
The connection between Giles and Melpolder,
paid agent of public philanthropy, cannot be eff
faced from the public consciousness. Citizens
know that Giles supported Melpoader in the fight
that the Social Service secretary made on Ram
sey because he would not bow low to his dictates
Melpolder never forgave Ramsey for his stand
that the Charity Car did not have monopoly
on charity distribution in the Whitewater dis
trict. With Giles publicly defending Melpolder,
the inference is plain that Giles, on that ground
alone, would not be friendly to Ramsey.

Elliott S Reply

R. N. Elliott, the Republican nominee for rep
resentative in Congress, minces word in reply
ing to the challenge of Finly Gray, his Democrat
ic opponent.
He hits the nail on the head when he remarks
that he cannot see why the nominees must take
the voters behind barn to explain the issues at
stake.
An open campaign, in which speakers appear
before the public and in which their speeches are
reported in the public press, leaves chance for
subterfuge or for deception If speaker makes
charge that is false his opponents have the OPP
portunity to nail the error and to demand the
proof.
Americans do not like gumshoe methods and
pussyfoot tactics. Play the game above board
where all of see the cards. Elliott is right
in refusing to resort to methods that the Sixth
District does not condone

SENIORITY RULE PUSHED
ASIDE TO PUT DR.. CLARK
IN CHARGE OF HOSPITAL

National directors Of the Red Cross
yesterday faced knotty question OF
precedent in connection with the ap
pointment of Dr. W. D. Clark. formerly
of Wayne county. to the dictatorship
of the Eli Lilly hospital unit at Indi
annapolis.
DR.. Clark is only captain In the
reserve, while DR.. O. G. Pfaff, also
connected with the hospital. is a
major. How to give DR.. Clark the
dictatorship without breaking prece'
dent was the question. 1t was finally
decided to call DR.. Clark into active
service ahead Of DR.. Pfaff. The latter
is to be Arst assistant.
Base hospital No 80 was the title
given to the new hospital.

1t doesn't matter whether you are Republi-

Many of us do not appreciate the worth of the

WILBUR IS SEATED
WITHOUT OPPOSITION

"Was seated without opposition, |"
were the words of telegram received
here Monday noon by J. II. Hazlett
from Senator Geo. r. Wilbur. The
news brought rather a'general gratif-
cation, for many Hood River people
had been peeved at the activities of
Roy D. Smith, representative from the
county to the Oregon State Republican
Central Committee, who declared that
Senator Wilbur was not eligible to sit
in the legislature. Mr.. Smith quoted
as his authority Article ii. Section TO-,
of the constitution, which follows:
"No person holding lucrative office
or appointment under the United
States, or under this safe, shall be elig-
ible to seat in the Legislative Assem-
bly,; or shall any person hold more than
one lucrative Office at the same time.
except as in this constitution expressly
permitted: provided that officers in the
militia, to which is attached no annual
! salary. and the office of postmaster,
where the compensation does not eX-
ceed $l00 per annum, shall not be
deemed lucrative"
Mr.. Smith was in Portland over Sat-
urday, and apparently decided to forego
his plans of proceeding to Salem to
contest before the credentials commit
tee MIR. Wilbur's place in the senate.
The plans of MIR. Smith created no
small interest in Portland political cir
cles last week, numerous representatives
and senator's elect were there attending
the irrigation and road conferences.
nkhor did nt faEa ulnak
in the plans of Mr.. Smith. II was
pointed out that Representative Conrad
p. Starrin. of Polk county, was captain
of Company l.. Third Infantry. 1t was
stated that Mr.. Wilbur, who, according
to Mr.. Smith. was barred from serving
in the senate because he held the cap.
taincy of Company IL. G. A. g.. o. N.
G., could receive a 60 day leave of alb
sence. and hold his place in the general
assembly. MIR. Wilbur even went so
far as to tender his resignation in the
military organization, but this was re-
fused by Adjutant General W. W. Viii.
son. who instead presented Senator
Wilbur with 60 day leave.
Relative to his activities as captain
of the company, Mr.. Wilbur telephoned
as follows :from Portland last Satur-
day:
IL have never received a cent of re-.
muneration from my participation in
the organization of the artillery COM
pany. Nor do ever expect TO receive
one cent for what have done. In or.
der for US to nave the company here,

men who were engaged in the formal
organization. accepted the captaincy

be attached, but that might be of as.

Mira Suddenly Finds His
Speed and Beats Favorite
in Fifth Race

The Woodsde Steeplechase Handi-
cap, over the two-mile course, featured
a very ordinary card at Aqueduct yes
terday, and it resulted in an easy vic
tory for Brooks.
Tho son Of Leonid -Insolence, In win
ming the event, created a new track
record for the distance when he went
over the Jumps in 4:08 As, which is just
two seconds faster than the best pre-
vious time, made by Ben Wyyls a few
days ago. Because Of the showing of
Ben Wyvis he was installed an odds-on
choice for yeste rday's feature, but he
was clearly outclassed by Brooks. ,.
Brooks took the lead early and held
it to the end.
Gillies Proves Game
GiIlies, in the fourth race, at mile
and a sixteenth, proved the gamest IN
the drive and defeated Brooklyn, the
favorite. Gillics went out 10 make the
pace and led TO the stretch. when Brook
Ign moved INFO the lead and looked a
sure victor. but few jumps from the
finish he tired badly and Gillies won by
half length.
The worst form reversal OF the meet
ing occurred in the fifth race, when
Mira suddenly found his speed and
won from the favorite. Mira in his
previous start finished a bad last.
Trompe La Morte captured the last
race. He was badly outrun in the early
part, but through the stretch he closed
fast and, catching Trite in the last six,
teenth, drew away to win by one and
one-half lengths.
