A romance of early Oregon, in which the principals were the poet, Joaquin Miller, and Minnie Dyer, also an Oregon writer, was related recently by Professor John B. Horner to his Oregon history classes at the Oregon Agricultural college. "Joaquin Miller was first known in literary circles as Giles Gaston, and Minnie Dyer as Minnie Myrtle," said Professor Horner. "They were contributors to the Eugene Review of which Miller was manager. In response to an editorial request, she gave him her name and address. An invitation to her home was accepted. "Along the trail to the Dyer home the poet saw a boy chop ping wood in a Coquille forest. The boy was attracted by the rug ged face of the rider, made more commanding by a ready weapon strapped to his side, and by a dauntless, dare-devil expression. The boy was Binger Hermann, who later became congressman from Oregon and United States land commissioner at Washing ton. "Upon arriving at Port Orford late Thursday afternoon, the poet, mounted on his charger and costumed in frontier garb, met Miss Dyer for the first time. To her he was graceful. To him she was beautiful. Cupid, therefore, plied his art easily. "Sunday morning a shy young judge made one of his regular calls. He was met at the door by Miss Minnie and her new friend. , Upon introducing her two suitors to each other, she dis appeared. Whereupon Mr. Miller said, 'Judge, I'll have a word with you, sir. Miss Minnie and I are to be married in a few mo ments, and you are to have the honor of performing the cere mony.' "Marrying another fellow to one's own best girl was a legal procedure with which the timid judge was unfamiliar. But as soon as he regained his poise the judge performed the ceremony, which was as awkwardly done as it was embarrassing to himself. "The three-day courtship of Joaquin Miller with his gifted Minnie Myrtle was followed by the customary honeymoon. Later there was a long storm during which it seemed as if a thousand fond hope3 would be shipwrecked. But one day, in after years, the storm ceased. The sky was again serene. It seemed more beautiful than ever, for a reconcilation had finally been affected. They were happy in each other once more, and beneath the sky stood the poet waving a last farewell to his bride of the sea, as she was sailing out across the bar." Crimes committed by former service men following the war are chargeable in many instances to effects of combat, and to hasty discharge from service, according to Wm. J. Keville, United States marshal. Keville's statement was made during a hearing conducted by the state legislative committee on military affairs, on the bill proposed by the American Legion for a survey of cases of all ex-service men in Massachusetts prisons. The bill as pre sented is based on findings of the national organization that many such men now in penal institutions should be given mental treatment as a result of their war disabilities. "One of the mis takes of this war," declared Keville, "was that the men were dis charged so soon after the struggle. They should have been kept in service until physically and mentally right to take their places in the community. Many of these men have come out into civil life and have gone wrong and the majority of these who havl done so because of the effects of their service. You can't teach a man viriousness and expect to bring him back to a normal state of mind with the stroke of a pen," he concluded. The Standard Oil company is to bo commended for taking the first step to do away with advertising signs on the main high ways of the state. Realizing the big board signs detract from the natural beauty along the highways the company has ordered them removed. This is being done at no small expense, taking into consideration the initial cost of construction, and shows a spirit of progressiveness that should be emulated by other concerns that have taken advantage of this method of advertising. The example set by the Standard Oil company to eliminate those things that detract from the state's natural beauty spots along the highways is the first concrete step for currying out a pro gram that has long been a matter of more than ordinarv imnor- tance in the minds of the people, oi mucii uniavorable comment natural beauty. -o- A third party is in formation lioiinl convention June J7, w ith a "I'ublie ownership, govenimont banking and public control of all, natural resources and restoration of civil liberties guaranteed Iv , the constitution," and a few other planks designed to get the' voter. -O- If the farmer waits for the government to lift him out of his predicament there won't be much to lift when his turn comes.

The Americana, accompanied by a Russian guide, were stopped at Alexandrovuk by military officials who declared a determination not to permit repre aentatlvee of an American" company to conduct sur veys under concessions from the Sov iet government, which Japan does not recognize. McCullough and MacLaughlln are believed to have gone to Peking. The Japanese press took occasion to comment on the possibilities of a grave Issue between American and Japan over the valuable oil fields. Northern Saghalien, nominally is Russian territory, but now is under Japanese military occupation. Pow erful Japanese Interests are plan ning oil exploitation there. The Sinclair QJ1 company holds a conceaslon granted by the Soviet regime to prospect for petroleum on Saghalien Island, but the Japanese have refuaed to recognize any agree ment between Russia and any oth er country regarding these conces sions, so long at the northern por tion of the Island is occupied by the Japanese.

Guaranteed by Nathan Fullreton and Ail Good Druggists. Many sufferers from Piles or Hem orrhoids have become despondent be cause they have been led to believe that their case was hopeless and that there was nothing in the world to help them. To these people we say, "Go to your druggist and get an original box ot MOAVA SUPPOSITORIES." One of these inserted into the rectum accord ing to directions will be found to give immediate relief. They reach the source ot the trouble and by their soothing, healing antiseptic action first allay the pain and soreness and then by direct contact with the ulcers and piles cause .(hem to heal up and disappear forever.

Editor News-Review : Last night I read with much Interest the article by Hon. B. L. Eddy, dealing with the religious conditions ot Roseburg. I feel sure that Mr. Eddy wrote this article In the best of spirit, and front actual knowledge. After a year's experience in the matter, he should fully know the situation, his own congregation possibly being the most effected. Mr. Eddy reached the conclusion of the position that this writer held from the beginning. We bad to undergo severe criticism, and lose some good friends for the position we took, but we feel that the article of Mr. Eddy fully vindi cates the position that we have held. The writer of this article said in a preacher's meeting that the coming of Evangelist Price would create division In every church in town, and cause hard feelings between friends. We knew this had been the condition in other towns. The churches of Roscbung have always worked together In a most friendly way, until within the last year, the feeling has not been so good. We trust that the feeling ot good will and fellowship may return to the re ligious life, of Roseburg, and all these things may be forgotten. I feel for one that I want to congratulate Mr. Eddy for his article, and for the stand he has taken: Respectfully, C. H. HILTON. See Clinnle and Julie, weds.
