ROSEBURG, OREGON,
PUBLIC
All over-.the country a form of public function has
jjaiii'tl prominence in recent years called the "community
forum." As usually conducted, it consists of a' lecture on
jome topic m current interest, followed by questions from
the atidientv and debate, if there are people who want to
talk. Probably in the great majority of cases, these forums
have proved very useful, in getting people out to hear com
petent speakers discuss subjects in which they have made
special study. The people are thinking about the problems
of the day as never before. All this debate and discus
sion must increase popular intelligence, and gradually fil
ter down into the mass of folks who borrow their opinions
second hand, and do not want to bother to read and think
for themselves. There is a tendency in some of these forums
for people who favor radical changes in human society to
make Ihemeslves prominent. These folks are commonly
.sincere, but have a distorted view of life. They feel with
all the intensity of their natures that the country's econom
ic system needs a big shake-up. It is a very good idea to
give a hearing to these people and leUlhem blow off steam.
They will feel a lot better. But in so far as their ideas are
chimerical, they should be answered by people who see life
in a broider and more practical light, and who can give how
revolutionary ideas would work out in practice. A great
deal of public discussion will bo needed in the coming years
to solve our problems. Kvery city ought to have its forum,
where thoughtful men and women should present the big
problems of the day.- All that can be asked is that all sides
of the big questions shall bo well preserited.

The movement for public playgrounds has made re
markable gains during recent years. Put there is likely to
be for a long time many city neighborhoods not well pro
vided with such open spaces. People can make up for this
lack to a large extent by back yard playgrounds. In many
places the neighbors that abut on the same back yard land
could combine to throw such a little space open, and use it
for enjoyment for the group of homes. Sand boxes, hori
zontal bars, swings, flying rings, playhouses, teeters, are
things that the children will enjoy that can be placed in a
small yard. Golf driving nets, croquet grounds, small tennis
mid horseshoe courts can be placed in many yards, particu
larly if neighbors would take down their boundary fences.
Such facilities will do a lot to keep the young crowd well
and happy and away from the moral and physical perils of
the streets.
It lias bt'cn jiroposL'tl and the proposition is one of
more than ordinary importance to the agricultural as well
m the business interests of this county that a home pro
duets show be held here in the early future, preferably in
advance of the Oregon State Fair. Such an exhibit, show
ing the wealth and varied possibilities of this rich section of
the state from an agricultural as well as a manufacturing
standpoint would go a long way toward encouraging, not
only the home producers, but would be a strong incentive
to briiij.; new wealth lo the county. The idea is a capital
one and should be carried out and made a yearly feature in
Ioug!as county.

So niaiiy accidents are occurring at railroad crossings
that many people feel that expensive safety devices must be
put in, or much more done to abolish grade crossings.
There are many crossings where the view is hiddc from the
Toad, which call for some kind of signal, or in extreme cases
for separating the grades. Hut the cost of complete protec-
tion on all the railroads would be so enormous that the
-wintry can not afford it. As a rule when people are hit by
-n train, it is their own fault. Which shows that the people
tmve their own safety in their own hands, and in the main
-iliey must leavn to protect themselves.
o
We are glad to note that the Leopold-Loch trial is near
lug an end that is, the degree of testimony is beginning
to get down to a reasonable length. It has also been finally
determined which one of the culprits struck the fatal blow
that killed the Franks boy. Hut both being equally guilty
of the atrocious crime there need be no time lost in definite
ly settling the punishment they rightfully deserve for their
(!e ili.-h act.
The tenth millionth Ford arrived today. We were not
surprised, howevtr, for we had an inkling that this mark
had been passed long ago.

JN BOM CASE
Suppression of Evidence
Asked By J. Boyer;
Says Warrant Void.
SEARCH WAS ILLEGAL
Maintains Warrant in Not
Describing Property Made
Seizure of Booze Vio
lation of Rights.
A motion to suppress the evi
dence in the case of the state of
Oregon against J. Uoyer, charged
with unlaw I ul possession of . in
, toxicating liquor waa filed in the
circuit court today by Attorney
Kay 11. Compton, representing the
defendant.
boyer was arrested, tried and
convicted in the Justice court, and
look an appeal lo the circuit court.
lie was arrested upon evidence
secured by S. C. Cluster, a special
: deputy sheriff appointed by Sher
, Hi ijtarmer, who with other offi
cers searched the shed near the
meat market conducted by the
Uoyer brothers and found the liq
uor which is being used as evi
ueucu in Uie case.
The defense claims that the
search warrant issued to Cluster
.-authorized him to make a search
"on the person of IJoyera brothers,
ir on and auout the following pre
mises: the meat market and build
1 mg conducted by them . at SUS
.North Jackson Street, Roseburg,
Oregon."
It is contended that Sheriff
Starmer in the search, which fol
lowed found a gallon Jug filled
with moonshine, and five gallon
jugs of wine. ' t
in the motion for the suppres
sion of this evidence, It is claim
ed that the search warrant is void
and that the search and seizure
made was in violation of the de
fendant s constitutional rights. It
is claimed that the search warrant
is alternative in character, giving
the u-.f icers the right to search
two or more places, a right which
it is claimed cannot be exercised
without violation of constitutional
privileges. It is- further contended
that t.ie evidence was not found
; "on the person of the Boyer
brothers," nor "in the meat mar
! k"t and building conducted by
them," but in a shed adjacent to
' the premises described in the
I search warrant, and that because
of the failure to describe the place
to be searched the warrant is not
valid and tho evidence seized in
the search cannot be used as evi
dence against the defendant.
Boyer in his motion' asks for an
crili r of the court instructing the
sheriff to destroy the evidence in
his presence, and suppressing the
liquor confiscated as evidence
against liiiu in the action filed by
the state.
The motion involve: much the
same technicality as the famous
Da bbe case in l'ortland, where the
courts held that evidence illegally
obtained was not permissibly as
evidence.
