THE ROAD PATROL PLAN.
Sooner or later some system of
road patrol will be adopted In Ore
gon. It has repeatedly been suggest
ed, but its adoption is a matter to be
decided in the future. In France,
England, and to a considerable ex
tent in the Eastern states, the roads
are patroled by men equipped for
making small repairs as they are
necessary. By filling up the small
holes they prevent their developing
into larger ones, and so keep the
roads in shape all the time.
Jnst as soon as a new railroad is
completed the repair gangs get to
work. They follow the first train.
Yet we build highways and expect
them to take care of themselves. It
is a wasteful system, for it permits
the roads to be ruined before any
thing is done, and then the whole
surface must be repaired.
The road patrol plan would mean
much longer life to roads, and more
important, it would mean good roads
all the time. '
MILITIA OFFICERS yi'IT.
That the Federalized militia is a
failure as a first line of defense for
the nation Is conclusively proven by
border experiences.
Between July 20 and October 25
there were 355 resignations of com
missioned militia officers accepted,
and several times this number ten
dered, although nothing like a real
war has been encountered only
border protection duty.
The men in the ranks, with fam
ilies to support, have valid excuses
for wanting to quit, but the enlisted
man cannot resign, while the com
missioned officers can.
The militia officers, first to desert,
demanded of Congress that the mili
tia be given the honor of defending
the Nation, and incidentally com
nensurate pay and increased allot
ments of supplies. They succeeded
in being given a chance.
When the opportunity came the
rank and file went to the front
many without proper equipment and
in some cases without food. The
militia officers had somehow made
away with millions of dollars' worth
of Federal supplies. Nine per cent
of their officers quit. Ex.
i( V KRXM KXT OWN WISH ll'V
With customary bourbonism, the
railroads in their resistance to pro-'
gress have started the first of their
500 suits to restrain the operation
of the Adainson eight-hour law, in
stead of waiting to give the law a
trial and ascertain whether or not
the law works adversely and then se
curing the necessary modifications.
The railroads objected as strenu
ously to all regulation. They fought
the Interstate commerce commission
and the various state commissions.
They fought the sixteen-hour law,
the automatic coupling law and the
abolition of their political domina
tlon by corruption. They have a!
ways been reactionary, basing their
rates on. all the traffic would bear,
and their public attitude has been
and still continues, "the public be
damned.
J ne railroads delayed action on
the Adamson law until after election,
expecting that the verdict of the peo
pie would, by the aid of Wall street
nnance and the Old guard, be against
the eight-hour law, which was made
the paramount Issue or the Hughes
campaign. However, now that the
people have shown approval of the
law. they show their defiance of the
people and of Congress as the law
making body.
That Government ownership Is a
possible outcome of the railroads' at
titude is recognized both by Congress
and the President. A comprehensive
investigation of the entire subject Is
under way by the special Congres
sional committee. A strike is certain
if the law is not adhered to. and with
a strike, all the menace of the rail
road tie-up which forced Congress to
act last September will again have to
be faced. Congress in this situation,
defied by the railroads, can do noth
ing but tackle the bigger problem of
Government ownership.
The conduct of the railroads, the
inefficiency shown in management
resulting In car shortage and poor
service, their frenzied nnance and
swollen profits, their placing them
selves above the law in their efforts
to make the courts greater than the
people, are rapidly making Govern
ment ownership a necessity. Kx.
ately greater representation in the
electoral college. The editor calls
attention to the fact that the South
gains an advantage by counting the
negroes as a part of its population,
although it prevents a very great
number of these negroes from par
ticipating In elections. His compari
son, however, would not be so strik
nig had he taken into consideration
that women vote ln Oregon and do
not have the right of suffrage In "the
South. Ex.
A CHILD HATES OIL,
CALOMEL, PILLS FOR
LIVER AND BOWELS
Ciive "California syrup of l'lgs"
Cross, Sick, Feverish,
Constipated.
Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the "dose" mother in
sisted om castor oil. calomel, cath
artics. How you hated them, how
you fought against taking them.
With our children its different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well
founded. Their tender little "ln
sides" are injured by them.
if your child's stomach, liver nnu
bowels need cleansing, give only de
licious "California Syrup of Figs."
Its action is positive, but gentle. .Mil
lions uf mothers keep their harmless
"fruit laxative" handy; they know
children love to take it; that It never
falls to clean the liver and bowels
and sweeten the stomach, and that
a teaspoonful given today saves a
sick child tomorrow.
Ask your druggist for a GO.-cent
bottle of "California Syrup of Figs,"
which has full directions for babies,
children of all ages and for grown
ups plainly on each bottle. See that
of counterfeits sold here. See that
it is made by "California Fig Syrup
Company." Refuse any other kind
with contempt. (Adv.)
LOIXiE ELECTIONS.
HOSI.; OF PRISONERS.
Whether the hosing of prisoners
conies within the meaning of "cruel
and unusual punishment." or not,
one fact stands out boldly above all
the turmoil over the prison manage
ment, and that Is that some method
must be provided for maintaining
discipline. The recent demonstration
at the prison when a howling mob
could hardly be made to listen to the
board of control, shows that disci
pline Is sadly wanting. Superinten
dent says much when he asks:
"What will you do when all humane
measures are unavailing?" Kind
words will not render a mad dog
harmless, nor will anything short of
a ring In his nose and a pole make a
Jerwey bull safe to handle. When
all kind and humane measures fail
to control a vicious man what can be
done with him except to use some
thing more forceful and less senti
mental? Ex.

Furious Suit Selling
We doubt if any store in any city
of the entire northwest, the size of Rose
bur? is selling as many men's suits as we
are doing just now. It beats all records.
Now, mind you, this heavy selling is not
confined to the popular lot of suits We
have on sale now at
but effects all goods, up to the highest
grades we carry.
And Why Not?
Aren't we giving all kinds of induce
ments in the way of special low prices ?
Where can one go to now, the way
woolens have jumped lately, and dupli
cate such qualities at such prices? It
cannot be done, that's all there is to it.
Anyone who is posted knows that. If
you want a genuine Kuppenheimer suit
at less than market prices you will get it
here, with a written guarantee if you de
sire it, that you cannot duplicate our
prices in any Kuppenheimer agency store
on the whole Pacific coat,
Is it any wonder so many are taking advantage
of the present moneysaving opportunity?
Our best suits are selling as follows:
Regular $18 Suitsr with 2 pairs of Trousers. j3,75
$20 to $22.50 Kuppenheimer Suits ; . . jj 5
$25 to $27.50 Kuppenheimer Suits $20.50

Harth's Third Trip
Within a Month
The first two trips of Mr. Harth's
were mainly for the purpose of securing
additional ammunition and much wanted
goods for that whirlwind sale of his.
Since then the volume of business done
here has exceeded all calculations, and he
went again last night but on an additional
mission, namely: Securing a big lot of
men's wear suitable for the Holiday trade,
and we promise you right in advance
that it will be the biggest showing Rose
burg has ever seen on such an occasion.
There are a few things Harth has
up his sleeve which will amaze this com
munity. But we are not going to be too
premature and tell them to you too soon.
You'll appreciate the news when we are
ready to spring the surprise. In the
meantime Mr. Harth has left instructions
to close out all the broken assortments of
everything in the house, and not to stand
on ceremonies with the price.
WILL IT BE. DONE?
Well, just come in during the week
and see for yourself.
Going Ahead. Always Busy.
