feeling. There was no bitterness, nn
personalities in the campaign. It was
a straight-forward, honest campaign
on both Bides. The bond lHsue won
and the opposition will join hands
with the majority and assist in every
way to a speedy completion of the
road to the timber.' Today Koseburg
Is a united citizenship.
Let us continue so!

J'JUIJAY, MAY 4, 11)13.
TIIK HONI) JKNl'K CAItltlKU.
j tfloseburg yesterday placed, her
neit in tne very front rank of pro
gressive American cities. The over
whelming avalunche of votes cast in
favor of the railroad bond issue is
elgniflcant not only of the progres
sive character of our citizens but of
their desire to help themselves.
The splendid victory is uot attrib
uted to uny one mun or any group
of men. It speuks for the Intelli
gence of the people. The vctory be
longs to the mult and file of the vot
ers. They were guided solely by
their own best judgment and they
acted almost unanimously on a pro
posal whfcli means much to the future
welfare of the city Itself and its citi
zens. The cry of taws made no impres
sion on our people. All of us who
worked and voted for the bonds are
ready to pay any addltlonul tax which
may lie Imposed because of our vote.
We nil bellcvo that the tux will be
more than offset through community
growth and prosperity. If the voting
of (he bonds gives employment to
lust twenty men who are now unem
ployed, the wages paid to these men
will equal the amount of our Interest
chhrgo on tho bonds. The wage money
will be spent hero and will circulato
through nil the channels of commer
cial activity.
With one or two exceptions the op
position to the bond Issue came from
property owners who have retired
from active business and who de
pend upon rentals from their prop
erty to carry ttiem along. To tills
class of perBonB the tax argument ap
pealed mnBt strongly, because aa they
figured It, every additional dollar
thoy paid In taxes wns Just so many
dollars taken away from their rental
income, nut in this they were in
error. A landlord fixes his rent to
cover all charges, against ills prop
erty. The tenant pays the bill. Tho
tax argument wns a bug-u-lino which
failed to attract any attention in this
election. It was rolcgnled to tho an
clont archives from which it origin
ated. .i -.; '
The carrying of the bond issue
means a new era for Koseburg. In
connection with the railroad and mill
work a largo auxiliary electric power
plant will bo built. It will generate
power vastly In excess of the amount
necessary to handle the Kendall saw
mill. What then Is tho motive prompt
ing t'ho expenditure of this capital
for tho erection of nn auxiliary plant
It Is evident that a change Is necd
I ed in the naturalization laws of this
I country, or In the treaties regarding
j this subject between ours and for
eign governments whose subjects take
out their papers and become citizens
or the United States. It Is stated
that Italy has issued orders calling
all her reserves In foreign countries I
to the colors, and this call is said to
be applicable to all the naturalized
Italian citizens in this country under
penalty of possible loss of property,
or arrest In case a visit to the old
hqjne is ever made, if the call Is not
obeyed. This is not right, and as
soon as this war Is over Bteps Bhould
bo taken that will secure to the natur
alized citizen the same immunity
from trouble or arrest as possesesd
by tho native born. It is true that
tho naturalized sons of nearly all the
warring nations can be found In the
camps or trenches of their former
countries, fighting as though they
had never forswore their allegiance,
and It Is equally as true that one can
find native born Americans in Bonu
one or other of the armies. These
men are as a rule soldiers of fortune,
and their enlistment Is voluntary,
carrying no obligations to their gov
ernment for protection. It is the
mandatory call of a foreign govern
ment to the naturalized citizens of
nnothor, that needs attention and revision.

I'lliHT, AS I'SUAf,,
Five minutes after the polls closed
lust night, Tho News bulletin board
had tho total vote of the four wards,
and the majority In each for the
bond Issue. Fifteen minutes later an
extra edition of The News was on the
streets and sevornl hundred copies
distributed gratuitously to the wait
Ing public. The thanks of the people
who were so vitally Interested in the
question amply recompensed for
tue extra expense and trouble incur

It has been suggested thnt the citi
zens of Koseburg celebrate the result
of the bond vote, and the actual be
ginning of work on the new road, by
digging the first Bpado of earth, or
driving the first spike, on tho Fourth
of July. There certainly could b? no
more filling combination than that
of national patriotism and civic pro

he moved a portion of the burned

which he replied that he had not. A
bottle of this oil was then shown him
and ho declared he never saw it. The
defense asked him If he ever bought
any ethensia and he said he never
had.
Mr. Beemer was recalled and ask

ed that on the morning of 10th of:

$5,450 Per Day
Spent to Fortify Goodyear Tires
Our experts say: "If Good
year tires were built like
some others, our saving would
be $1,635,000 per year
$5,450 per day."
The difference would
hardly be visible when the
' tire is complete. But it would
probably cost our users a
million dollars monthly.
Better Still
But, instead of skimping
Goodyear tires, we are build
ing them better still.
Goodyear Fortified tires,
for many years, have em
bodied five costly features
exclusive to these tires. We
still employ them all.
We spend on experts
$100,000 yearly to find new
betterments to add. In the
past year alone we have
added improvements which
cost us exceeding $500,000
per year.
Lower Prices
Yet Goodyear prices are
constantly coming down. Our
last big reduction on Feb
ruary 1st made three in
two years, totaling 45.
In view of those facts,
don't you think it worth while
to get Goodyears? Most men
do. Goodyears have long
outsold any other tire. They
are selling now much faster
than we can build them.
Any dealer will supply you.
