Roseburg testimony:
J. W. Wright, real estate and Are
insurnnce agent, Room 8, Marsters
Uldg., Roseburg, Ore., says: "There
Is no question In my mind as to the
value of Doan'B Kidney Pills and 1
fully believe them to be the best
remedy obtainable for kidney com
plaint. Hnckiiche has been my dost
companion for so long a time that 1
most despnlred of ever being cured.
After having used numerous remed
ies without obtaining any beneficial
results, I was Induced to try Doan's
Kidney Pills, procuring them at
Marsters & Co's. drug store. They
not. only banished the backache, but
strengthened my kidneys and im
proved my general health. Should
I ever have a return of the trouble,
I would Immediately resort to Doan's
Kidney Pills, feeling confident that
good results will follow their use."

forced by tho polico last Sunday
Defending him were Attorneys John

The Review I'QIQi
ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAWS. ,
... 1 1
.iuvur iiuuvlt nits no more 10
do with the enforcement of the
liquor laws than any privnto citi
zen.' That Is the declaration of his per
sonal organ, the Oily News, and It is
very probable that he inspired the ,
statement himself. That Mayor
Hoover has not been doing anything 1
toward the enforcement of that law
is apparent to the most casual ob
server. It will be a surprise to most
people, however, to learn of thin
new doctrlno, that tho chief officer
of a city has nothing to do with law
enforcement.
it Is by no means surprising that
the Oily NewB Is so wrathy at hav
ing Its real position mado known, or
that it hurls nearly a column of
abuse at The Review for revealing
Its true status as the organ of
Hoover, Norman, et nl. While that
sheet has had tho unwavering sup-
'lort of the "wet element ever since
the June election. It has also en-
leavored to pose as a friend of law-
enforcement, by mentioning In an
offhand way what everyone already
knew that cases of drunkenness
have been of largely Increasing fre
quency In itoseburg of late. When
:iKked to specify and to explain why
the mayor and tho marshal had per
mitted such conditions to exist, In di
rect violation of the prohibition Inw,
It merely fumes with rago nnd utters
a volume of abuse. It tries to hold
Judge Hamilton, Hist. Atty. Brown,
Sheriff Kent on and Justice Long
"(liiaHy culpnble with Hoover and
Norman. That Judge Hamilton nnd
Dint, Atty. Brown will prosecute all
awes brought before them Is fully
known hy every citizen and likewise
dreaded hy every lawbreaker. City
'ases would most likely come before
Recorder Orcutt for hearing and
date cases before tho grand jury, so
Justice Long's olliclal connection
with any of them would be infre
quent. If Sheriff Kenton has been
overlooking any county cases of law-
breaking he should bo admonished
to "get busy." In the towns it Is
the duty of tho city otllclals to see
that the laws aro enforced. That
such has not been done in Roseburg
the Oily News Itself declared In its
last Monday's issue. Yet when asked
why the law has not been enforced
by the city officers it files Into a
rage and seeks to shield its speclnl
friends, Mnyor Hoover nnd Marshal
Norman, who have allowed such law
breaking to continue, with no up
parent effort to stop It. Indeed
many people believe they have had
no desire or inclination to stop It
As The Review has staled before
such a condition will not be toter
aled much longer. Whether n man
believes In prohibition or not, such Is
now the Inw and It must he enforced
In fact this seems to be the prln
clpal issue In next Monday's city
election. It being generally ad
mltted that the present otllclals have
not enforced tho law. It seems to be
up to the voters to elect others who
will.
