HOFF POINTS TO
PAST RECORD|N
HIS PLATFORM

State Treasurer o. p. Hoff will
make his race for reelection on a
platform Of integrity, efficiency
and economy as established by his
department during the past three
years under his administration
In statement issued today Hoff
points out the various economies
affected by himself In the hand
ling of the states funds and in
vites investigation as to their ac-
curacy.
I'm the past three years l have
earned and saved the state, thru
the application of business princi-
pies in the handling OF the funds
entrusted to my care, approx
mately $258,000," the statement
points out.
Efficiency Instituted
Il have successfully admins
tered a business which has in
creased in volume 500 percent
since 1915, with an increase in
departmental expense of 81 per
cent.
"The year preceding my advent
into this office, the state treasur-
er handled, In round figures, $780,
100000 In receipts and disburse-
ments and maintained an aver
age daily active balance of
$348,000, on which the state re-
ceived no interest, as 1t is the in
active accounts, only, that pay
interest. The third year Of my ad-
ministration the department
handled $50, ,000,0 with an av-
erage daily active balance of
$35, 900, the difference earning in
interest over $4,000 for the state
of Oregon. Approximately an
equal amount saved each year in
the same manner.
Interest Yield Raised
"By close attention to the in
dustrial and segregated accident
funds, I increased the interest
yield LOG per cent with an in
crease in funds of 90 per cent or
$1,000 saved for 1921.
II saved the state over $4,000
by arranging with banks to han
die endorsed state warrants for 2
per cent instead of 6 per cent,
when the general funds became
last year.
II have increased the earnings
Of the inheritance tax department
over 100000 by inaugurating a
policy of examining valuations
and insisting on the true value be-
ing placed on all property.
II refused to sanction a pro-
posed increase in my salary dur
ing the 1921 legislature, believ-
ing the present time for redue-
tion in state expense.
Opposed Higher Salaries
81 have consistently opposed in
creases in salaries OF state off
cials and more highly paid state
employees and have opposed what
| conscientiously believed to be
unwise expenditures of state
funds.
These facts are duly audited
by state officials and inscribed on
the states records, and l invite in
spection thereof.
''The methods of economy and
attention to the states
which has enabled me
to make this record. will continue
to be my policy, and the princi-
pies embodied in my oath of Of
flee is my platform, and approval
Of the same by the people will be
appreciated"

with sound economy and good
state policy.
"The growing cost of govern
ment is partly due to the increas-
ing insistence that we be more
and more governed. We have
created salaried officials for this
and, salaried officials for that, un-
til the official class has become a
minority so powerful that it large
ly dictates policies and controls
government. Some officials is al
most constantly at the citizen $
elbow. The cost of government
can be made less by wedding out
the superfluous functionaries and
turning out time servers and in
efficients. AS governor, / would
do all in my power to rid the
public payrolls of parasites and
political henchmen.

Razor Fracas Here
Sends One to Jail,
Other to Hospital

o. A. Penny, SO, of Portland, is
in the Salem Deaconess hospital,
his neck, fore and aft, terribly
lacerated, and a man who gave
his name as McAfee is held by the
Portland police as his assailant
as the elimination of liquor
party and subsequent razor fight
which occurred at the Southern
Pacific depot here about 8 O'Clock
this morning.
Penny, his neck and head
swathed in bandages, will recover.
Word received by local police from
Portland this morning said that
McAfee had virtually "come
through" with a confession. He
probably will be returned to
Salem pending an Investigation.
Man Admits Drinking
The fight here, in which Penny
narrowly escaped death, was pre-
cipitated, he said, by his refusal
to accompany further man whom
he met in Portland and whom he
knew by the name of Davis. PEN
ny told the police this morning
that he and his companion chad
bottle" in Portland and that
they had "6aen drinking" The
next thing Penny knew, he said,
he was in Salem. He had, he
found, "beat' his way here on a
Southern Pacific train.
"I'm not going any farther" :"
he said he told his companion.
'T'm going to return to Port
land.'
Razor Is Employed
His companion, he explained,
refused to consider Penny's turn
ing back and demanded that Pen
ny accompany him on to Eureka
Cal. When Penny flatly refused
the man attacked him with a
razor and a few seconds later
Penny was left a bloody, scream
ing figure In the Southern Pacific
yards.
The man, Penny said, was about
S5 years Of aye, was more than
six feet tall and wore short
mackinaw. He claimed, according
to Penny, to be railroad brake
man and to carry union card.
The man who gave his name as
McAfee had on his person a brake
man g union card, according to
word received from Portland Of
ficials, who added that McAfee
was found to have collar, COW
cred with blood, in one of his
pockets.
Admits Having Trouble"
Penny told the police he re-
sides at the Gurns hotel, 122th
and Washington streets, Portland,
and that he has a wife and little
girl. Investigation this morning
indicated that there is no such
hotel at that address.
McAfee, according to informa-
tion received from Portland, ad-
mitted having ''sone trouble" in
Salem. He did not elaborate, Of
ficers said, concerning the nature
of the alteration.
Penny requested this morning
that nothing be published con-
cerning the fight because, he said,
he has relatives residing near
Silverton. He did not furnish
their names.
Robbery Held Motive
II began drinking in Portland
and didn't know anything after
that until I reached Salem" Pen
ney said. ~ intended to take a
stage back to Portland from here.
This man must have thought I had
some money ON me- -
If robbery was the motive for
the assault, the assailant appar-
emily lost his nerve as Penny's
watch was not taken from his per-
son. When officers arrived at
the station, Penny's antagonist
was not to be found.

est pressure on the blooms. Sprinkle
flowers well with water and use only
tissue paper to line the box. A good
way to pack long-stemmed flowers is
to lay them in rows at each end of
the box, their stems overlapping in
the center Take a stick just a trine
longer than the inside width Of the
box and spring it across the center Of
the box pressing il well down on to
the ends ot the stems. This plan
keeps every bloom from moving and
