Finland Journal: At Salem Sat urday tit Mr. Howerman flipped another flop. H made a speech there In which he said that If elected he wouldn't take part In the passage of IfgiHlation changing the direct pri mary law. What a spectacle. Where he made the Matfnicnt was almost within a stones throw of the atatehouse, In which in the last IfRtslature he voted fur a measure to change the primary I;iw. The measure was the Mariner hill and It proposed to mutilate the primary law bv creatlnK aBHemhlieg, Mr. Iiowrinan not only voted for the Mariner hill, but he was bo afraid It would not pass that ho got down from the president b desk, called an other senator to the chair and madf a speech advocating Its pattHage. He Kafd he did not like the direct pri mary, and that he would rather vote fur a candidate nominated by con ventions When there was no elec tion approaching, and he felt secure, he did all he could to mutilate the direct primary. He ridiculed It. jeered at it and Hpat upon It. Hut now when an election la near, he nays he will not aid In any attempt to change the direct primary. Nor 1b thlH all. Mr. Howerman'B Salem apeech was made three days after he won called before the cam paign committee to give advice rela tive to a certain resolution. That resolution declared In favor of the direct primary. In favor of Statement One, and declared against assem blies. That was a case where Mr. Howerman s decision meant some thing for or against the direct pri mary. If he had Bald the word, the committee would have passed the resolution. Hul Mr. Howerman did not any the word. The committee, after advis ing with him, rejected the resolution, and thereby went on record against the direct primary, against State ment One and for assemblies. In the face of this official, known and In delible record Mr. Howerman's talk at Salem Is absurd. If Mr. Howerman Is a friend of the direct primary, why did he vote for the Mariner bill that would hnve scuttled the direct primary? If Mr. Howerman favors the direct primary, why did he make a Bpeech for the Mariner hill in which he stated as president of the Oregon senate that he would rather vote for candidates nominated by conventions than can didates nominated by the direct pri mary?

The people know xactty where you are, and yau can not fool them. Cake tried It, and what happened? You are Irrevocably pledged to the assembly platform. By all the ob ligations of honor and manhood, you cannot violate that pledge. That platform declares that we have the right to "assemble for considering the fitness of candidates and making recommendations to the people." The people know you are so pledged, and that if you go back on it that you can not be truBted In any other pledge. They will think a great deal more of you and you will get more votes If you stand up like a man and fight for your principles. They admire a man who never hauls down his col ors. They have a wholesome con tempt for a quitter, a trimmer or an artful dodger. They will think more of you and you will get more votes if you Bland squarely on the plat form to which you are irrevocably pledged and to which every one of them knows you are pledged, than If vou go to flipping flops and trying to carry water on both shoulders. So man can serve two masters. No nan is smart enough to fool both ildes. Cake tried it and lost. The Journal sincerely advises you to be i man and not a political contortlon !st. You cannot make that game ork. Run your assembly colors to fhe masthead and fight for them to 'he last ditch, and you will have wide respect, and might beat West, the mn wtio always makes good and never flops. ('apt.

Regulate in Because a dive la allowed to exlat by nerveless officers and because an occasional "drunk' appears on the streets or Koseburg. some people say that a dry town is a failure. The progress ot Koseburg brands this be lief and assertion as false, but to re enforce this contradicting evidence it might be well to compare Roseburg is it was eight and ten years ago wltb what It Is now. A certain visitor to our city ten years ago, remained long enough to become thoroughly acquainted with the oldest inhabitant and all local celebrities, returned this summer. This is the change that he found: Ten years ago the block between the McClallen House and Josephson'B was avoided as much as possible by decent women, whose sensibilities were shocked by curses and foul lan guage. In the town were either fourteen or firteen saloons. Three or four bawdy houses openly adver tised their business through a dozen runners to the youth of the town. Drug stores were continually filling prescriptions for the diseases that accompany shameful vices, and the whole town recognized the existence of the element known as the "under world" as a controlling factor In the community. Social lire was not of a very high Htandard. Roseburg was known In those days among traveling men and railroad men as "the worst town In Oregon." ranking lower than the min ing town of Baker City and the sheep and cattle town of Pendleton. Time waa when three or four Ore Insurance companies absolutely re fused to take iiollcles In the city or Roseburg. . While Roseburg Is not now perfect, there Is not a street on which decent women cannot walk in security. The worst spot at present is near the depot, but that is better than the best block used to be. .Vow there is not a saloon, though several "near beer Joints make a poor Imitation. Now only one house of ill-fame Is in operation openly, and perhaps If the officers did their duty It could be put out or existence. If you will talk to drug clerks you will find that prescriptions for the disgraceful lli-eases have fallen off. All the Ore insurance companies, who can, gladly do business here. Socially the town Is far better off now. Purity and clean lives is now the rule. To what Is Improvement due? Un doubtedly In part to prohibition. Not only has there been a change In the people here but the best class of peo ple are coming to Roseburg. And It Is the clean, sober people who will raise the apples and pears to make Douglas county famous. The bar keeper, the saloon runner, the para site of women, do nothing to bring prosperity or happiness to a com munity. The foregoing observations are those or a man who saw Rose burp ti-ii years ago and who has recently Mn it again. As to the progress of the town along moral, educational and financial lines there can be no qin'stion. To realize the great im provement that has been made In recent years. It Is only necessary to take note of the fart that there Is much public criticism of the estab lishment known as the "cold storage" plant where It Is supposed beer Is sold In violation of the law, but a School Books school Opens Every Morning you should have a First Class Fountain Pen From the Roseburg BOOK STORE the best place to buy all your PENCILS.

Its infectious virus contaminates every corpuscle and tissue of the circulation, and for this reason its symptoms axe of a varied nature. When it enters the blood it is bnt a short time nntil the mouth and throat bey in to ulcerate, the skin becomes spotted, rashes and eruptions appear on the body, sores and ulcers break out, the hair, falls,' and fre quently nails on hands and feet thick en and come off. Mineral medicines which simply shut the poison up in the syctem should be avoided, for when such treatment is left off the old dis ease will break out again, often worse than before. S. S. S. cures Contagious Blood Poison permanently, and it does so because it thoroughly purifies the blood. s. a. s. goes into the circulation, and drives out the last trace of the destructive germs, adds richness and vigor to the cir culation and allows it to nourish the diseased por tions of the body back to health.

SHE BWITC SPECIT10 CO., Atlanta, ffcs, few years ago (here were fifteen such places In Roseburg. .They were all licensed and every one was Just as much of a nuisance as this cold stor age plant, and people did not have very much to say about It. What a great Improvement In public senti ment! To be perfectly fair It must be admitted that prohibition has the effect of making the liquor traffic odious and of educating people along the right lines. So long as liquor can be shipped In from adjoining territory, prohibition will not be per fect, but the prohibition which we nave had under local option is a great improvement over the condi tions which prevailed when we had the wide open saloon which defied every law made for Its regulation With state-wide prohibition, the conditions will be still further im proved and when the :tlme comes when Congress shall absolutely pro hibit the shipping of liquor Into a dry state then we shall have prohi bition In its perfection. It Is of no use to talk or the drunkenness that exists in Maine, for instance, when we know that whisky sellers of Bos ton and other cities are continually shipping their goods into that state. Congress has legislated upon this liquor question at dlfrerent times and each act has been more stringent than before, and there can be no doubt whatever that the time is near at hand when we shall have an act of Congress which will protect a state like Maine from the outside II quor dealer. It is no time to go backward, but to ge forward, in this liquor question. No ma.il can point to a single good that comes from the traffic. W hy then should the traf fic be permitted to exist? Vote down the so-called "Home Rule" amendment which gives the cities and townB the exclusive right to license and regulate the sale of liquor regardless of the State Con stitution or the criminal laws of the slate. Vote for the Constitutional amend ment forbidding the sale of intoxi cating liquor within the slate of Ore gon and vote for the statutory enact ment which Is to carry this proposed Constitutional amendment Into ef fect. Vote also to keep Douglas county dry. The proprietor of the notorious Quelle" resort in Portlund was con victed or Belling liquor contrary to his license and yet the Portland city council rehises to revoke his license. What a strange Influence the liquor traffic hus over the city councils! Whut nonsense to talk about regu lating such a business! Let us cut It out, root and brunch. Paid Adv.

It has been estimated that the to tal loss in the United States from typhoid fever alone amounts to $3(3.790,000 per annum and that the prevalence of this disease can be re duced fully one-half by the substl- tutlon of pure water for previously , contaminated supplies. "No case of typhoid fever ran be a law unto Itself," says rofessor j Edwin O. Jordan, editor of the Jour- nal of Infectious Diseases. "Every case prevented may be the means of preventing scores of others. The Nation has a stake In this question that should have a voice in Its own defense. The organization of a Na tional department of health Is one of the first steps toward the control of typhoid fever. There Is no reason why the United States should con tinue to lose nearly Ave times as many of its citizens from typhoid fever as the German empire. Cen tralization of responsibility and au thority is a necessary preliminary to effect control of this costly disease." f'ATARRH SfFFEBKRS GOOD THINfi TO KNOW. If you own a Hyomel hard rubber Inhaler, the Red Cross Pharmacy wants you to know that they will sell you a bottle of HVOMEI for only 50 cents. Remember this, all who suffer from catarrh a bottle of IllOMbi (pronounce It Hlgh-o-me) Is put up In a separate package and sold ror 50 cents, to accommodate the vast army of people who already own a Hyomel Inhaler. The Red Cross Pharmacy will sell It to you at that price and give you the opportunity to begin at once to rid yourself of vile catarrh and the snuffling, hawking and spitting that bo with It. Many people through years of ne glect have let catarrh get a strong lold upon them. Some of these peo ple unreasonably think mat one uoi tle of HYOMEI ought to. cure them No matter how chronic your ca tarrhal troubles. HYOMEI is gnaran teed to cure them if you give It half a chance. JuBt breathe it, that s all and Its healing, soothing, antiseptic properties will make you feel belter in a day. If vou own an Inhaler get a 50 -ent bottle of HYOMEI today. If von do not own a Hyomei inhaler, ask for a 11.00 outllt, which includes inhaler. e . FOR COl'NTY CI'KKK.
