TO CRATER ROAD The Portland Oregonian. in defending the supreme court for its decision in the Crater Lake road ease, says that the real reason why the appropriation was held invalid was "the obvious purpose of the makers of the constitu tion to prevent embarkation by the state in any general abuse of internal improvement." Is that so? Why. then, was it permissible and legal to appropriate money to construct the portage railroad, and maintain it at an annual loss, au internal improvement for the benefit of the northern section of the state1? Why, also, was it constitutional to permit a $300,000 appropriation for the construction of locks at Oregon Citv, an internal improvement designed to benefit the Willamette valley? Will the Oregonian please explain why there is one law for northwestern Oregon and another law for southern Oregon, and why the state can embark in "general schemes of internal improvement" in the vicinity of Portland, but not in southern Oregon T Perhaps." concludes the Oregonian, "these were not desirable objects: but the makers of the constitution thought there were; and so we have the constitution as it is. "We have the constitution as it is," do we? Does not the constitution distinctly m-ovide but three supreme court SALEM. Or,, Fob. IS. Elltor Mull Tribune: I have received n copy of you rodltorlal discussing the supremo court decision on the Crater Lake road, and regret very much that the coutr decided against your people. I gave the matter a number of edito rials, but seemed to have uo Influ ence with thorn. I am In favor of a campaign tor a definite good roads program. Wo ought to make a fight so na to build one state highway across each couuty upon condition that the couuty put up about twenty-five per cent of the cost. The road then could be built by thp state with a state appropriation and convict labor. I would like to come down to your town sometime and get this proposition before your people. It Is the solution of the good roads problem tn Oregon, because It would give the progressive counties all a chauce to take part on equal terms. The "mossback" counties would not have to go Into It unloss they wanted to. We have uo Seattle fairs to put up for, and we ought to have an appropriation of at least $300,000 for this purpose. E.

Will-the Oregonian also please explain why it is con stitutional to have five supreme court justices, "and un constitutional to build a state aided highway to a national park? THE NEWSPAPERS' OPPORTUNITY. Portland newspapers are loud in their, assertions of friendship for all sections of the state. They frequently assert that they have the welfare of all Oregon at heart. On several recent occasions they .have trumpeted their friendliness for southern Oregon. Now they have a change to prove it. Let all three of Portland's papers assist in raising the '100,000 desired to build the Crater Lake highway by pop: ular subscription. ' - The plan is to secure one thousand subscriptions Of $100 each, payable in two equal annual installments, the money to be iised .ioiiltly with Jackson county's $50,000 ' appropriation, under supervision of the federal govem fment. Let the Portland papers prove good faith by cham- pioning the cause in their columns. Let them start a fund and receive subscriptions for the highway. Let them help educate the public about Crater Lake and its natural won ders, so that Oregonians will not know less about it than the people of foreign lands know. Crater Lake and the national park can be made a great "resource for all Oregon. It should be so made. The met ropolitan papers owe it to the state to help make it. The Journal, which has given freely of its space for Crater Lake, has sent in the first subscription of $100 for the road fund from outside the county. Let the Ore gonian and Telegram prove their good faith by dping like wise. Let all three open their columns and build up the fund show that the press has the power to build a high way to the world's greatest wonder, if the legislature hasn't. Or else let the newspapers quit prating of their interest in the development and progress of all Oregon. THE "LOG-ROLLING" BUGABOO. So much has been said In these columns relative to the phenomenal cures effected by the great Fer-Don's corps of medical experts that only the most miraculous cures accom plished by these 'famous experts ex- cjte more than passing notice. The public of Oakland and San Francisco are familiar with the marvelous re suits achieved. The offices at the Hotel Moore, Medford, are now be sieged by crowds who have either read or heard of these wonderful cures, and .who after spending hun dreds of dollars with other physicians without being relieved are now satis fled that Fer-Don can accomplish what others have miserably failed -to do.

"Log-rolling" is the bugaboo blamed for many things by the Portland Oregonian and its feeble echoes in the state. It is the capital crime of legislatures, according to -these wiseacres of journalism. It was the sole excuse for the slaughter of' the normals, or murder made possible solely by "log-rolling" by opposing interests. As a matter of fact, no legislation, state or national, is ever accomplished without "log-rolling," as the com bination of certain elements to achieve certain ends is popularly styled. No convention, no society, no collection of individuals, can come together and do anything without "log-rolling." Tne Oregonian is itself championing the "assembly," wuiuu 10 ucBiruu uy politicians simpiy Decause it restores log-rolling" and its possibilities, which the direct pri mary has rendered difficult. The paper itself is the worst log-roller in the state to carry out its aims and objects. Yet we find it claiming as the reason that the Crater Lake road was found illegal the fear of the framers of the con- sniution or tne custom or log-rolling!
