mercfal Club to ee that thla doe
not occur again.
It 1 already apparent that the
tariff revinion promised for next year
will be uuward tnittead of downward
That Is apparently what a majority of
the people voted for, ao they nhould
have no complaint to oner.
At next Monday's city council meet

toward paving HoHeburg's principal

is possible to get them.
A bunch of machine politicians of
this stale, aided and eanouraKd If
not actually led by the Portland
OregonJan, are endeavoring to over
throw the primary election and Initi
ative and referendum laws of thff
state. Further than this, they are
endeavoring by every possible meam
at their command to Induce members
of the legislature to commit perjury
by violating their sworn pledges to
support Statement No. 1, In the
election of a UnHed States Henator.
Perjury is a grave crime in this state
and every legislator who violates blv
Statemont No. 1 pledge should br
amenable to the penalty therefor.
Technically this may not be poesthle.
yet morally Ue OreKnnlan and those
working with It to defeat the prac
tical application of that law are
guilty of aiding and abetting the com
mission of perjury- Thewe are plain
words, yet they but state plain facts.
When It comes to being a real newt
paper Tbe Review has long beer
without a peer In Southern Oregon
It maintains that proud position hj
fulfilling its mteslon of giving nil lh
news all the time. Ht -utiles fully cov
ering the local field, in a fair an
reliable maimer, it has the only tele
graphic news service in the count
and thus places he Important eventf
of the world before Its readers every
day. It Is not a matter of an oct
atonal '."scoop," here or there. Our
service is so incomparably bette
than any other paper in this count)
that any would-be competitors are en
tlrcly outclassed. Oiscrlmlimtttif
readers know this and conseijtioiUl;
our clrculatioon Is also far and awaj
ahead, of any other and ie growlnr
all the time. Htg events like a na
tlonal election are hniidld right u
to the minute, and The Review war
the only paper tn the county that
gave the detailed vote of this county
by precincts and for tho electors of
all parties. We Invite comparison al
all times, lining confident that out
service will show everything we claim
for It the best Ln all lines
With eKgR retailing at 35 to 40
cents ptr dozen and potatoes at 90
cents to $1.2Ii per tiuMhel, there If
certainly no lack of Inducement foi i
the production of these commodities.
Yet It is a regrettable fact that both
have been Hhippcd Into ItosehurK
from other counties or statesre
cently, in the potnto line such a
shortage Is not likely to occur an
other year, as several parties, we un
derstand, are expecting to plant a
good acreaKe next season. One grow
er recently told a Uuvlew representa
tive that ho expect to devote ;tl)
acres exclusively to potato- next
year. Others will probably plant
in in-h lancer areas, so that DoukIu
county will bo an extorter Instead of
an Importer of potatoes hun-ufti-r
As to vhk production, our poultr)

TWO PI-INS OITMXEO.
Statement 1 Mm Can Either Hlgu
or Kecelre Petition.
PORTLAND, Or.. Nov. 11. Grad
ually the plan of campaign to prevent
Governor George E. Chamber lain
from being elected United States
Senator by the Legislature, is assum
ing definite form, and the chief point
of attack now Is on the phalanx of
the Statement No. 1 members. Those
who are engineering the proposition
express themselves as confident of the
ultimate success of their designs and
the overthrow of Chamberlain, des
pite the pledge whirb the Statement
men voluntarily made to the people
who elected them.
In the legislature there are 52
members who were elected on the
Statement No. 1 pledge, and Gover
nor Chamberlain needs but 46 votes
to elect him to the Senate. To defeat
Chamberlain, therefore, bt is essential
to eliminate seven of the Statement
No. 1 mtn in some manner, and this
is to lie accomplished, according to
the enemies of Chamberlain. To do
this two methods have been mapped
out, the first is to have certain of
the Statement men resign and to
have others renounce their pledge
Those who are to resign will do so
beeause they do not want to vote for
Chamberlain and do no want to vote
for anyone else, as that would be
breaking their pledge, and consider
that resigning Is the lesser of the
evils confronting them. As a salve
for the conscience of those who will
renounce their pledge, a petition wll'
be sent them signed by voters who
will urge them to vote for a Re
publican In preference to a Demo
cra-t.
An Outside Opinion.
After stating editorially the fact
that the supreme court of North Da
kota had decided that members of a
legislature pledged to vote for the
popular choice for senator cannot be
.ompl!ed to keep their pledges, the
San Francisco Chronnlcle, a staunch
Republican newspaper, says:
"Of course they cannot. Everybody
knew that. The method of chooslnr
United States senators Is determined
by the constitution of the Unltec"
Staops, and no state legislature car
n any way affect It. Rut neither doe
'he federal constitution prevent legis
lators from promising to vote at
their constituents direct. It, how
rver, they make these pledges nr
power on earth, except their own
mnne of decency can prevent them
'rom 'welching.' If a man desires ti
'itibllcly confess bimrelf a liar and a
meak he has tho moral no, the Im
noraJ right to do so. And If a
'eg Ih I a tor thus pledged should thur
lolate his promise it would be ut
erly Illegal for his constituents to
luck him in a horse pond after hr
ot home. Rut they might do It and
nke their chances with the law .and
the recording angel."

NKW YORK, Nov. 11. Harvey W.
Watterson. a lawyer and younger son
of Henry Watterson, editor of the
Louisville Courier-Journal, plunged
to his death from the 19th door of his
office building at 37 Wall street late
this afternoon. His body shot down
ward from a height of 110 feet and
landed on the roof of a 1 0-story
building adjoining. Almost every
hone was broken and the head was
crushed.
While there were no witnesses to
the tragedy, evidently it was entirely
accidental. Mr. Watterson 's hat and
coat were on his closed desk. Pre
sumably he had attempted to lower
the window and, either stumbling
over the radiator, which was in front
of the low sill, or losing his footing
in some other manner, pitched for
ward and down to death on the roof
of the building below.
