Of vital Importance to every citi
zen of Unacbui'K Is the purity of its
watt r supply. It ia a inalK-r of Krao
concern when an individual or com
pany tampers with, or attempts in
any way, to launch or initiate au en
terpriHt; for private gain that would
in any degree impiiir the health of
the entire community. In fact, it Is
noihiiiK less than wholesale murder,
born under the dlRKUise of alleged
charity for thut great muss of Buffer
ing humanity who have fallen prey
to the ruvlHhea of the white plague,
and who, fail und dlHtrenning aa Iheit
wnntn and doalres may bo, usual find
Borne haven or real until the learned
medical aulhorltleB of the world dis
cover other and more effective
method of nouriHlifng these unfor
tunates to a state of better health.
With the proposed erection of a
tuberculosis sanitarium at Winches
ter, five miles north of this city, and
In close proximity to the water sup
ply of I he entire community, arises
the question whether of not thit
move on the part of the promoter
will, to a more or 'less degree, con
taminate the waters of the North
I'mpqua river. 1'hyslcians of stand
ing slate that It will. Others de
clare that it will not. Hut the great
mass of people who have had deal
ings with Institutions of the forefo
Ing nature are a unit in suying that
the danger sign is in Bight and the
time is ripe to call a halt.
If there Is the remotest suspicion
thut through the building of this
sanitarium at Winchester our water
supply is going to be "tainted," It It
nut only imperative that the city
council take a definite and deter
mined stand against the erection of
such an Institution, but the entire
populace should rise up and forever
stamp out of existence all means and
methods likely lo be employed to
carry out the scheme.
It Is better to be safe than sorry.
Definite and prompt action is neree
sary nud it Is a foregone conclusion
t hat the confidence reposed in the
council of this city to carry out the
wishes of the people in matters of
such grave importance will not be
passed upon lightly. Therefore, we
feel perfectly safe in predicting that
after all the evidence has been sub
mitted, the city fathers will take the
broad view of the matter Himtain
ing the contention that the erection
of a tuberculoma hospital near the
main supply or water for this city
will prove a menace to the health of
the community.
Recently Governor John IT. Cal
kins, of the federal reserve bank of
Kan Francisco, signed a letter ad
dressed to Liberty bond purchasers
advising them f the real value or
Liberty bonds and certain conversion
privileges. He received many replies.
To those who think that common
sense Americanism is a thing of the
past, this letter from a resident of
San Diego, California, will be Inter
esting: "Received your request to
save and buy more Liberty bonds.
That is just what I am doing as fast
as my interest accumulates. I reel
it is a privilege to trust this govern
ment and In a way help, while I re
ceive a compensation also." In re
cent months the Liberty bond mar
ket has Improved, The improvement
hns come about because of the fact
that thousands or small Investors
have taken advantage or the com
paratively low prices or the best se
curities in the world and have
bought wisely while others sell fool
ishly. Thousands of other persons
who ore holding Liberty bonds nre

Strange as tt may seem, an unfor
tunate man can be convicted on the
most flimsy evidence for purloining
a monkey wrench or a box of curpttt
tacks and given a year in the penitentiary-
But when a girl of tender
years la enticed from the straight
and narrow path and for no other
reason than to rob her of that one
God given virtue, pure womanhood
the evidence becomes so "compli
cated" that the average Juror cannot
get Justice focused to that angle that
u rightful conviction can be had. It's
too bad Oregon.'s criminal laws do
not provide for treating these fel
lows by the sterilization route.
All things considered, why
shouldn't turkey meat be high? And
then It tastes so much better to the
visitors and makes the head of the
house who has been responsible for
the Thanksgiving feast feel as
though he had been "touched" by
the occasion.
Seven thousand idle men in the
metropolis of Oregon and a long, cohly
winter ahead mattes me reiiow wun

The old adage, "talk is cheap," Is
going to get a severe Jolt if the in

Mistland Orchards
Will Be Advertised
"This is a Mistland Orchard."
Members of the Oregon Growers
Co-operative Association will receive
lUino timo this fall a beautiful col
ored enamel sign, with the above
wording. These signs are to be post
ed over the approaches to orchards
owned by members of the Oregon
Growers.
C. I. Lewis of the association has
been working on the signs that will
not only be attractive frm an artis
tic standpoint, but will be so col
ored that the wording may be easily
read by passing tourists, as well as
y the home folks.
The signs are to be about 15 by
l'O inches painted on enamel, in order
o make them weather proof and at
raeiive enough in colors to make
them easily noticed. It Is probable
that the background will he black,
with a large triangle covering the
most of the sign in a triangle In at)
trange color. Over this orange and
black will be lettering In white, that
nan be easily read.
Incidentally, with the Mistland
igu over the entrance to an orchard,
iht owner thereof will be doing his
part in advertising Mistland products
:ui(l letting the world know that he
is a member or the Oregon Growers
Co operative Association.

Old Schooners Become Barges.
IHsposa! of large numbers of old
schooners, to say nothing of nn over
supply of new wood ships, has been a
problem for the past few years. River
and canal nu n, meanwhile, have been
facing a shortage of barges. Putting
these two fads together, Kastern ship
builders have now evolved a new form
of schooner barge, made by removing
the upper works and the bolnw-deck
cabins and bulkheads of the schooners.
Such barges are capacious nnd have
the mlvnufagixt of speed In towing and
seaworthiness for coast work, and if
lost from a sea tow can make port
with a Jury rig. In South America as
well as the lulled States, rebuilt
schooners for barge work already are
at a premium. Popular Mechanics

TO SIHP SITTING UP
IN HIS CHAIR HE SAYS
"Every sign of my chronic bron
chitis has disappeared and I have
gained flfieen pounds since 1 began
taking Tanlac," said N. Jones, 499
Webster street, Portland, Oregon,
recently. Mr. Jones is well known as
a miner and mechanic and owns a
gold mine in Baker county, Oregon.
"While stationed In camp at
Washington, D. C, about a year ago,
continued Mr. Jones. "I was put on
guard duty one wet, freezing night,
and as I had no heavy clothing I
contracted a heavy cold in my lungs.
It left me In a very weak condition,
and finally developed into chronic
bronchitis. I could not lie down, I
choked up so, and had to get what
ever slecD I 'could Bitting up in a
chair. Sometimes 1 would simply
have to gasp for breath. I tried sev
eral things but got no permanent re
lief, and I continued to cough so
that people thought 1 had consump
tion. I had a shooting pain in my
chest and back every time I would
breathe and I bad to discontinue
working on my mine, the outside
work made me chok up so bad.
"A friend of mine over near Mt.
Tabor, advised me to take Tanlac,
and it has certainly been a life saver
to me. 1 took four bottles and now 1
can He down as well as anybody and
there Is no sigli of pain left. I work
in my mine every day now and Tan
lac has built me up so wonderfully
I recommend it to anyone who needs
a good medicine."
Tanlas is sold in Roseburg by W.
P. Chapman, and in Dixonville by J.
E. Hattleld, and by leading druggists
everywhere.

League Gets a
Bill For Cigars
PARIS, Nov. 15 The Belgian
government has Just presented to the
League ot Nations, a bill for cigars
amounting to 80,000 francs. The
bill says: "These cigars were smok
ed or carried off by members of the
various delegations to the Spa con
ference." The conference was held In July
and was attended by members of
the supreme council and representa
tives of the German government.
The Secretariat ot the League of
Nations has announced that It Is at
present short ot money and It refus
es to take over the debts of the Su
preme Council.
The Belgian government argues
that the Spa conference was a part
of the "operations" of the League ot
Nations.
The bill remains unpaid. The Lea
gue of Nations assembly will hold
its first meeting at Geneva today.
