SIX THE 9-AJLY CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON, MONDAY, OCT. 29, 1917. OPEN F9RUM . WANTS EXPOSITION EEPORT. Salem, Oregon, February 8, 1017. To th Editor: Becentlr I read ia the Pallas Observer that Senator Hawley would introduce into the stats Senate, a, resolution calling for a report of the Panama Exposition Commission, and by all means let 's have a report. We want it ,aud yet, Mr. Editor, I assume that such report will not be news to Sen ator Hawley. Senator Hawley is a mem ber of this Commission. There was ap . preprinted to bo handled by this Com mission, the sum of $200,000. Out of this appropriation, I suppose Senator Hawley 's daughter was eiven a trio to nan i rancisco, chaperoned, too, by Coun ty School Superintendent Seymour and wife at the public's expense. Senator Jlawley and his family attended the ex position prepaid. The senator made sev eral trips and yet made an extended stay at the exposition, returning at about its close, twirling a dude's cane. For one, Mr. Editor, I would liko to see even the expense bill of Senator Haw ley. Some three or four months ago. 1 read in the Portland Journal that this Exposition Committee "iad just held a meeting in Portland and they found that all of the expositions appropriation was not expended. Jic it remembered, that the Oregon Building was given away donated to some organization. Well, at this Portland meeting, the Comuvwsion decided to again visit San Francisco to attend the eeremonios of formally turn ing over our building and spending the remaining appropriation. I hav? heard a story of early mining liistory ill Idaho, when the miner would work all week in the mino, gut his wages on Saturday night, go to the sa loon and to the gambling table and re main until his money was all gone and would then return to' his bunk and turn PR.

At about 12 o'clock ho had lost all his wages as usual and gouo to hia bunk to turn in for the night. Ho got out of his pantaloons and throw them upon tho floor when ho heard a thump that he did not understand; and so in a mom ent ho took up the pants, felt in the pockets and found six-bits that had been overlooked. Ho hesitated a mo ment, then pulled his pants on again and returned to -the gambling table. In short time, ho hair lost the six-bits and was dead broke so he could so homo and go to oca nntl tall asleep. lis Exposition (Jommisison has dis covered about six-bits unexpectedly and well, they should by all means, go to San Francisco at the formal turning over of our building, take their little canes along and expend what remains of the 2l)0,000.00.
