BUR Ci, OREGON, LEGISLATIVE Frank M. Donilell, rw-tntly Ilepublican floor loader in Con-prci-.s, said in a recent interview that lobbyists liave too much power with Congress. lie wishes that members would vote as they talk in the cloakrooms. Hut according to .Mr. Mondell, many of them are waylaid by lobbyists) who represent all kinds of in terests bitf and little, and are persuaded to vote against their orig inal judgment. The same conditions exist in many state legisla tures, where it has been complained for years that lobbyists excer ci.sed a too power)' u; influence. Yet it is impossible under a demo cratic form of government to prevent lobbyists from trying to influence legislators. An, person who wants to get anything done, has a perfect right to appeal to any public representative. This right exists just the same, even if that individual is bent on selfish interests, or is an unreasonable person trying to put over some proposition that would be contrary to community welfare. What we need in our public bodies is men who have independent judgment and fearlessness of conviction. A man is not fit for public life unless he is willing to take some chances of defeat. If he is all the time thinking that unless he pleases this or that set of people, lie is going to lose votes, he would better stay at home. What is needed in public positions is more men who have done well whatever they have undertaken in life, so that they feel con fidence of the future, and are willing to stand up for a principle even if thereby they take some risk of being beaten. In electing their representatives, the people should consider the promises of candidates less ,and their records more. When congress and the legislatures are filled with the right kind of people, they will not be in improperly swayed by persuasive lobbyists. o Roger Rabson, the noted statistician, remarked in a recent article, that one of the greatest troubles with boys today, is "green pastureitis." To one afflicted with this disease he says "the pas ture farthest away always looks the greenest." There are boys who think the farther away from home they go, the more pros perous they will be. Mr. I'.abson thinks that most boys are better off to remain in their own home town than' to go to large cities. On general principles a young man does better in his own home .section than elsewhere. There he understands the people and the people understand him. If he goes off and settles in some entirely different part of the country, he fails to some extent to understand the habits and ideas of the people. They often fail to understand his ways and ideas. There arc opportunities everywhere for those w ho can see and grasp them. o When parents object to some habit or practice" that their children have picked up, they are told that "Everybody's doing it" and that they are "back numbers" if they object. Older peoplo iilso apologize for their objectionable proceedings, by remarking that "everybody's doing it." If people seo half a dozen- of their friends following some objectionable custom, they jump to the conclusion that everybody does the same thing. If they would look around a little they would find that plenty- of scrupulous folks still mainl'iin hig'i principles in their own vjonduct and in fluence their children toward the same. The people who have amounted to something in this world have not been much swayed by what oilier people do. They shape out a policy that looks viehl to them, and they let other people's conduct take care of itself. A determined elfort should be put forth by the city and county to build a brine across the South 1'mptnia river to Alex ander's addition. It is hoped this important step will not be de layed indefinitely but that some concrete way can be devised whereby the city and county can cooperate on a basis that will insure prompt action. o Local merchants have none one record against fake advertis ing. This is a capital idea. Hundreds of dollars are filched out i.f the iiu.-ine-.s m :: of this community every year by worthless ad ertisinjr schem. .

"I'm a wise egg and thought I knew a thing or two about men," she chirped, after a policeman had picked her up, charged with "vagrancy," "but I guess there's a couple of hauds in the deck I haven't seen.

Kisher of Coos county, in the prosecution ot L. V. Pcare, charged with tho murder of James Culver. Peare was found guil ty of murder in the first degree and is to be sentenced soon. Mr. Neuner states that the people of Coos county are looking forward to the completion of the highway be tween Rosehurg and Marshfield in order that they may become better acquainted Willi Duuglas county. There Is a general feeling, he stales that the counties have not been as close as they should have been for the interest of both, as the Interests are for the most part common. With the completion ot the coast highway by way of Myrtle Point, and the Unking up of the Roseburg Reedsport highway with the Roose velt highway, there will doubtless be a great change for the material benefit of both Coos and Douglas counties. In commenting on the murder trial Attorney Neuner praised the work of Judge Kendall very highly. Judge Kendall was appointed to take ihe place of Judge Coke, who was made P. S. District Attorney. Although tills was his first big case since taking the position, he handled it in a mas terly way and what he lacked in ex perience he more than made up In adaptability. His decisions were made wilh dispatch indicating an en viable knowledge of procedure and much hard work. -o- X BORN : $ STONE To Mr. and Mrs. G. F. Stone, of Hrockway, on Tuesday.
