J tested in a tknisand I home laboratories I isa ; 'i i ) i ! 1 I ' ,THE LIFE-BLOOD OF BUSINESS Profits are the heart of the industrial society in which we live. The expectation of profits is the pulsating force Uiat drives the life-sustaining blood to every part of the ec onomic body. The blood is money. Whenever it flows, rightly distributed and in sufficient quantity, the various members of the body function; they keep each other active; life abounds in energy. When it does not flow, rightly dis tributed and in sufficient quantity, some of the members' cannot do their part of the work; palpitation and debility re sult; the whole body is lethargic. Periodically this anaemic condition recurs. Ijiere is trouble in the central pumping station. . ' ' That was the trouble in the United States, for example, during the depression of 1921. Consider the spectacle! Warehouses crowded with cotton, wooC leather, lumber, copper, chemicals wealth bepond the dreams of former generations. Factories and machines, the most extensive, the'mast efficient the world had ever known. Currency and bank credit, greater in volume (Oian ever before, waiting to be used. Millions of Idle workers ready to do their part. And a hundred million of our own people eager to enjoy the multifarious things that these idle men, by the use of ,these idle machines, would gladly make and, in this age of scientif ic wizardry, could readily make out of these surplus mater ials. Yet, month after month, there wa3 business depression, as though an evil genie had waved a magic wand. Men, ma terials, machiiifs, money, were at hand In abundance. Noth ing was lacking but the driving force which was necessary to put them into such relations with each other that they could go on with the world's work. That force is profits. In the economic world in which we live, the pumping station cannot develop much power without the motive force of anticipated profits; and it can not long continue to operate at all unless the expected profits are actually realized. The Nation's Business. o When it comes to service to the advertiser there is not a single publication in the state than answers that requisite quite so well as the daily News-Review circulation and the price charged taken into consideration. This paper reaches every nook and comer of Qouglas county. Not a single "postoffice is off our regular daily list and practically every home in Roseburg is served by the daily publication. Our Associated press leased wire service has made it possible for our readers to receive all the big news events of the day al most twenty-four hours in advance of any other publication reaching this city. Newspaper with a circulation of over four thousand copies daily in a city the size of Roseburg is a record not to be found in other parts of the state. No better service could be delivered to the advertising public. It is certainly encouraging to the church going people 1 of Roseburg, no matter what particular faith they adhere '. to, to witness the closing of a well-conducted revival that : has not duly cemented the people of one particular faith but ; did a great good to the community at large, bringing about : a decided co-operation in all things religious that makes Mhe word of God command the respect of all His people, no ' matter whnt their sphere on this old earth. Dr. Miller's able leadership in the recent series of meetings held at the First . Methodist church in this city was without any spectacular : program just that good, old wholesome reUgion that so en : dears people to a just and rightful cause entirely devoid of sensationalism in any degree. His visit to Roseburg wrought . much good and the big get-together meeting to be held at ; the Methodist church Friday evening at which time a "friendly supper" will be served to all the new and old mem bers of the congregation will be a happy culmination of a successful revival. Dr. Miller's efforts in this community . were far-reaching and have had most beneficial results. o '.' "Handsome Hans," who has been making things mighty lively for Portland bootleggers, was shot last evening by a member of the underworld whose chief occupation was dis pensing moonshine. The officer is at the point of death at this writing. Those Portland law breakers will go the limit to protect their chosen pofession even to taking of human life. After all has boon said and done, the Oregon legisla ture has failed to ratify the child labor amendment and in this action has done a good job for the boyhxd of the na tion, liearing a boy to eighteen years of age without giving him a working knowledge was sufficient to make the moas ' ure obnoxious to all right tliiuking ieole. o Tatty Arbutklo has found a woman who will marry him.

WiL UEU, Uttleorologlit The Garden Valley Wo- man s Club will bold a cooked food, hot tamale, and apron sale at Churchill's Hardware Store, Sat Feb. 21sL By Henry L. Farrell (United Press Sports Editor). NHW VOUK, Feb. IS. (United Press). Jimmy O'Connell never will be tried on a criminal charge 'of having attempted to bribe a pro fessional baseball player, an of fense that carries with It a penally of imprisonment under New York laws. It Is doubtful If the authorities have enough evidence against the former New York outfielder to get an Indictment from a grand jury. It is also doubtful that baseball offi cials want to prosecute him. He is generally regarded now as the goat and further prosecution would look like persecution. "Connell was a popular player and even if he should be placed on trial It la very uncertain that a Jury could be found that would convict him. There were much stronger cases against the White Sot players in lym and there were no convic tions then. Repudiation of confes sions and disappearance of docu mentary evidence blocked the prosecution and tho supremo pen alty of baseball was their only punishment From what developed after Com missioner Landis made public Ihu testimony taken in his examination of the players mentioned by O Con nell arid from what resulted during the subsequent investigation by the district attorney's office hero, there lsno copy of O Connell s testi mony. The details . w ere only brought out Indirectly bjvtlie ques tions asked of the oilier players. The district attorney's ofMce, un willing to prosecute O'Connell on what was declared lo be. a flimsy case, passed the buck right back to Lamlls with the Intimation that O'Connell would be prosecuted if Landis wanted him sent before the bench. For several reasons the commis sioner Is almost certain to advise against further prosecution because he said, w hen he turned over all the evidence to the district attorney that the district attorney said when he handed bact the case to Landis It Is a very weak case. Official baseball would not liko It very w ell If O'Connell should be ac quitted of the charge because the game would be placed in the posi tion of holding a blacklist against a popular youngster who hail been declared Innocent legally and flifl dally. As far as uncovering the master minds behind the plot or the hither ups in the case, the criminal Inves tigation failed Just as the Investiga tion of the commissioner proved un successful. The only hope of bring ing out new details or clues that would leail Into 1my channels was that tire players Involved might tell a different story under oath.
