Hie lifting of the contract' for the erection of two bridges span ning Deer creek to a lorcigu contractor, when there was 11 1 it 11 l 1 practically only one per cent dilference between the bid of local and Salem contractors is ors, carpenters, business men and others of this city. And it should not be. Why plead with others to patronize home institutions when the city sees fit to sot such an example? There should be sufficient forethought on the part of our )4ople to always give preference! to local men in the award ing of contracts, and ithis applies to every branch of in dustry in this vicinity-tno matter how largo or :h6w small. Rosnburor has about all it' Can of giving employment tq worthy men during the coming winter months, many of whom have families and are utiliz iiig every cent they earn to sustain them, and it Is' these fijen .who should benefit by all work to bo given out,, not oh outside man who has no interest in the' welfare and ad vancement, of. Rqseburg., ; Qy a few nionths ago the pity oTMcdford waa confronted with a like proposition, and, while outside contractors underbid Mcdford men some three thousand dollars on a contract to be awarded by the city, the council of that city deemed it to the best interests of the community to let the contract to home people, and it was so ordered anct the work is now under way, giving employ ment to many MecJford men who would otherwise been compelled 'to- seek new fields to operate. This is the spirit ' that should prevail at all times, The local liian should be given the odds,, just so long as there is not too wide a mar gin between the contestants, and we do not think that the fact that an oiltsido estimate was one per cent lower than thnt submitted locnllv should bear enousrh weiirht td take the D.K tTUiri unuj' iiwin ivio.uui jj. earnings for a livelihood in. jnattcr to build up a town and let an outsider carry away "all the profits, when they .would otherwise be spent among W njcrchants. 'It' simply 8iu.ntf tri.de jaiid. jjencraj busl-.j licss conditions. County Ancl icitjr goveriiindnts sftould al- I'wnvs iriva nref'erence to' our :'iiideratloii and: a broad and' .'business-like-' view ' should be taken in all matters that vitally affect our working people in a financial way. It is lime to look irl'ter our own inter ests aiid do everything possible 'to build, a bigger, better 'and more prosperous Hoseburg. - It cannot be dono by patrnnjiiing outside industries whenever ll is possible to have the work done at hon)c. j ""' When man goes to war it is eventually his "noma and i;jTamily that give him tho" reason for it. Usually he dees rjiot take them along to battle with him. In one little town in Pennsylvania, wo are told, more than 100 children of .striking union miners aro being kept out of school because ;"clijldren of jicn-union. miners aro there. In another town .120 children walked out rather than pursue studies in the Same rooms with the children of "strike-breakers." Tho men of these towns are robbing their children of a heritage tho world owes them. That heritage is tolerant, unspnjled childhood. , In a tenement district in a certain eastern city, there are five 'nationalities in the same building. An Irish boy, a Chinese-Hawaiian boy, a German, a little tow-headed girl from Sweden and a child of Italian parentage. They play together. They are growing up there together, learn ing ono another's V'ays, finding enjoyment and pe.ice in one another's company, tolerant, happy. Childhood's heritage is childhood. In the name of mercy that sweet period should bo spared them. They will be men and women with hates doon enough. , ' o , With two good commercial printing plants operating in this city there is probably no other industry that suffers mora than those concerns from business men and others, and more particularly some petty county officials, who are prone to buy their printing wares from salesmen and others who make this territory at frequent intervals, mid at no , saving whatever. In fact, in many instances they pay more for their printed matter. Only a few weeks ago the chief deputy in the local tax collecting department awarded a Portland firm, or rather recommended to the county court that the concern be given a printing order amountim' to several hundred dollars in preference to local printers. Still this fellow ekes out his existence through tho efforts of lo cal taxpayers. We see no good reason for surh action and tho follow who ia always bucking the best interests of his community is not a loyal citizen in any sense of the word. Wo hope some day to see a man of broad enough vision, who has sufficient business tact and energy to protect home industries al the head of the tax collectirg department in ' this county. We heard some of the .Seattle people had cam eK-d their reservations for the Demnscy-Tuuney spectacle in Illinois. Thai's the advantage of having Ml. Kuinicr.

Jack Made a Mistake ' CHICAGO. Sept. 21. Conviction that the Gene Tunuey-Jack Jjeinjt bey heavyweight championship ' light iaat year in Philadelphia was in violation of un Indiana writ en joining Dempsey from meeting anyone until he fought Harry Willn was voiced today by Judge Harry FiKher, wno presided ut a renewal of the Coliseum Club's suit to en force an accounting with Dempsey for alleged contract violation.

"I think the decision not lo give tho bond is ill-advlseil and thut tho defendant is committing a serious mistake."- warned the judge. Weather Fair and Cool CHICAUOj Sept.. 21.
