ROSEBURG, OREGON, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1987. TURNING STATE'S EVIDENCE. It is high time that society's tendency to condemn and despise the criminal who confesses his sins be corrected. For years the general public has been prone to Jook ' down upon any wrongdoer who has confessed, given state's evidence and really done great work in helping law enforcers to carry out their task. To even the most righteous of citi- ' zens such individuals as have confessed have been known as "squealers," and the name has been applied in utter con tempt. Even though these men broke with dishonest men and revealed information which brought to justice the worst of criminals, in the eyes of a public eager to worship heroes i these men were seen as disloyal and guilty of treason to their pals. The reason for this opprobrium appears to bo thnt the public has held the criminal turning state's evidence a cow ; ard. The reasoning, if such it be, is that the man confessing : has done so to escape punishment. The thing that has caused him to confess has been the promise of immunity from the due course of the law, and therefore, it is said that this man is a coward. As a matter of fact,. it requires far more courage for a man to confess than it does for him to keep his silence. In the American courts, no man on trial is required to : give testimony that will lcij to his own conviction. He can ; refuse to. answer any and all questions put to him by the pros ecution, and unless there are witnesses to a crime, it is rare indeed that the police would obtain a conviction were all men accused of crime to keep their mouths shut tightly. But for the confessions of the accused, most criminals would be at large. It is notorious in police circles that members of the secret society known popularly as "the bju'ck hand" seldom confess. They will go to the gallows or the chair or face a , life of imprisonment before they will give evidence against themselves or their associates. Are these men worthy of praise? Are they to bef upheld as models of personified loyalty? Should their example be emulated by Boy Scouts seeking merit badges? The" ajuestioiys are of course ridiculous. Taking the case of tlio man who gives state's evidence suppose he is promised imrrlu'nity ;and, after aiding in the conviction 'of a notorious jping, igopi -free.)

In the social scajo, the early dentist was funked perhaps above tho raltlesvmke mqdicine muiulicant, but never was ho such a figure in the community! as tho horse doctor. Tho dentist then had to apologize lor his calling. lie was brow beaten by the ordinary run of pill doctors, he could not gain admittance to the semi-sacred gatherings of the county, med ical associations, and his existence was n sorry one iiideeth 1 Of late years the trade has been picking u)r. The Car negie Foundation for tho Advancement of Teaching now re ports that there is one dentist to overy 1750 or so possible patients, while run-of-tho-mine physicians number one to every 7(!0 potontial customers, and the percentages ar.c grad ually becoming more nearly equal. ...... The pioneer attitude towards tooth carpentry was more or less mechanical. You waited till you had a toothache, and "then wont in to suffer. You waited till your teeth broke " down, and then you wont in to the shop for repairs bridge work, shoring, scaffolding, abutments, falsework, masonry or superstructure. Now, there is such a thing as preventive dentistry. You go to the dentist's twice a year and literally stop the toothache before it happens. Tho big gain in prestige for dentistry has come through ,,. tho discovery that all sorts of maladies are traceable to bad '' teeth. Kidney trouble, rheumatism, heart failure these and . other maladies apparently in no way related to the mouth, were traced to tooth decay, and with this discovery, the high hat pill doctor found that it was necessary for him to call dentists in consultation. The natural corollary to this is that the dentist has had to become more than a cnrpenler with some knowledge of , .sapping, mining, masonry and general blauksmilhing. lie inust now go to college, and not just serve an apprenticeship. He must know anatomy, and he must know materia mcdica. Anesthetics and the X-ray are now part of his tool kit. Whore once he was a mere artisan, he ,is now a professional man who can hold his own with the of the country. Return Home Sunday i Sir, and Mrs. Arthur Cumiiilims i nnd two children.

In his great "farowoil address," delivered on September 17, 1706, the ninth Anniversary of the sinn ing of the constitution, Washing ton expressed tlin hopo: VThat the constitution mav bo sacredly maintained that tho hap piness ot ino people or these stales may be made complete by so care ful a preservation, afitl so prudent a use of this blessing, as will ac quire to them the glory of recom mending It to tho applause, the af fection und adoption of every mi lieu. Washington's Faith Washington believed so thor oughly In the endurance and use fulness of tho constitution that he expressed tlio hope that othor na tions would udopt It us their form of government. In 1887, after a hundred years of testing, William Gladstone, who served 61 years In tho public life ot Great lit ltain, said: "It is the most wonderful work ever struck off at a given time by the brain and purpose of man." Our constitution Is tbe founda tion upon which this republic rests and is qulto generally considered the wisest plan of government ever conceived. Under its ggnoflciont influence we have made orderly progress un paralleled in history until we have become the leading: nation of the world. :, - The governmental atmosphere of individual security provided by the constitution stimulated individual effort toward discovery and Inven tion, so that a major portion of nil Inventions ill world ihistory have occurred on Amuri,ctin soil since our constitution was written. , -We have advanced from oxen cud wooden plow '. to tractor and farm machinery, from scythe to combined reaper ; and thrasher, from candle and water wheel to electric light and power, from one nian shops to great .'manufacturing plants, from stage ecoach to pull- man palace car, from messenger, uuy iu cauiegram.'.aim rroni cover ed wagon to the Lindbergh flight.
