ROSE. 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. .

Denver Girl Says Prospective Hus

By MICHAEL, F. DACEY
International News Service Bluff
Correspondent.
nRVVKH. March !1 Tho "hnni-ri

popular trystlna; place, according to
the wail of pretty 2U-year-old Dorothy
Adams.
tliirnltiv Hwlnrna tliat Ilia "Itimnu"
have ruined Denver's beautiful civic
center ns a hunting ground for matri
monial gamo because of the wide pub
licity given the trial of 20 alleged
confidence men In criminal court here
cnargeu with swindling victims out of
hundreds of thousands of dollars
through fake race track and fnke
stock market transactions. The
"bunco men," Dorothy says, used the
civic center. as a pluce to round up
"suckers."
Looking for Husband.
Dorothy donned all her swell clothes
and "prettied up" on a balmy Sunday
afternoon nml tonlr n utrntl tl,r,,h
the civic center with both eyes open
lor a prospective husband.
"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.
"I've got a soft spot in niv heart for
a home, and all that sort of thing, but
I don't want to look mr,.uu O... rr..n

Old Man Was Skeptical.
Dorothy spied a nicely dressed old
gentleman strolling through the (ireek
iineaier. a smile, a little squeeze of
the old boy's arm and a little girlish
lehatter resulted In a ut... -!.( ....
quaintance between her and the old
gentleman.
They sauntered to a romantically
secluded spot and sat down. Presently
however, the old man said he had n'n
appointment with a friend, but would
return In a few minutes. When ue
came back he was accompanied by a
"copper."
"1 KUess he thoiifrhf I u-Qa th.

District Attorney George Neur.er
returned last night from Coquille
and Marshfield, where he has been
spending the past week assisting Dis-,
trict Attorney Den S. 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.
