BUM DOUGLAS COUNTY For FIRST, LAST and ALL THE TIME Consolidation of The Evening Newt and The Roseburg Review ' . DOUGLAS CPU NTY An Independent Newspaper, Published for the Best InterestsoM People . . . VOL. XXVIII NO. 284 OF ROSEBURG REVIEW ROSEBURG, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 21. 192 VOL. XIX NO. 48 OF THE EVENING NEWS Rose Tod ay Only Odds and Ends The Busy Bonds ; : ' Our 350,000 Criminals Peasants Would Rule I By Arthur Brisbane ! (Copyright 1928 ay Star Company) Not much except odds and ends of news when this was written, late yesterday after ; noon. The fatal tracks of the joil bonds led in new directions. The name of an important judge was dragged in. He says no one sent him any bonds. 1 ...... Senator Borah, the great purifier, got $300 more yester day, to help pay back the gold v that Mr. Sinclair handed over. The republican party must be purified ,says Borah. Theodore Roosevelt II sent $ 1 00 to help purify. f : " It is doubtful, however, whether all the perfumes of ! Arabia or two Anna Held milk baths could purify the worried old party. Being found out is a terrible thing. Everybody knows that both big parties take, all the campaign funds they -can' get. . The republicans get the bigger r gifts because their chances .are usually better, and their mem- ory for kind words and better deeds is better. . It is certain that neither Will Hays nor any of the big re publicans knew where the Sin clair bonds came from. The oil scandal-had not started when the bonds were contributed. . - If Sinclair had offered a bundle of bonds to the demo rratic donkey to wipe out cam- paign expense debts, that in-' fielligent animal would have taken them gladly. However, the elephant got caught, the donkey did not, so the donkey feels virtuous. Speaking of slush funds, bribes, etc., you should read the book written by Judge Kavanagh of Chicago, after 33 years on the bench. Three hun dred and fifty thousand indi viduals make their living, part ly or entirely, py crime in our happy country, he says. Last year they contributed 12,000 murders to the nation's news items. Public indifference is to blame, says the judge. Every country gets as much crime as its indifference deserves. Judge Kavanagh favors use of the whip, because "no crime lead ers retains (he respect of his gang after he has winced under the lash." The moron and rack eteer feel the cat-o'-nine-tails more than prison. Our 350000 criminals steal yearly enough to build the Panama canal." . They steal more than that. And public gambling at race tracks, another form of crime, legalized by grafting politicians, takes from the public each year enough to build the Panama canal three times. More trouble in distressed Rumania. The peasants want to rule and the Socialists back them. Here we have no peas ant population .although not all of us know it. Once, the late George T. Gould, on a tour of inspection over the Missouri Pacific, took his family with him. The mayor, chamber of rommerce and civic organiza tions of a small city came to tne private car, asking for a better railroad station. t One of Gould's charming young daughters, . in while dress, blue sash and white kid shoes, said: "It's very nice of those peasants to come down and see papa, isn't it?' We have some millions of farmers that would like to run this country, partly, but they don't know how to go about it. No real organization, for one thing. Next fall they will get wonderful promises and then think it over four years more. The socialists' executive i (Continued from page 4.) ENGINEER OF DAM WEEPS AS HE TESTIFIES!! William Mulholland .

Roseburp's PROJECT NOT COSTLY Wednesday, Mnrch 28, the voters of Roseburg will go to the polls in a special city election to consider - the issuance of $23,000 in bonds for the purchase and improvement of an air port for Roseburg. ' There nnpenrs to be little opposition to tho 'protect, but yet there are to be heard some people arguing aeainst the proposi tion, some of whom have in the past been always and forever arraved against anything thnt might appear to be for the bene fit, development and advancement of the city. There are oth ers ho from misunderstanding of facts are sincerely opposed to the project, who if thev were not misled or hnd a complete and full understanding of the proposition would undoubtedly be of a different mind. !- ' ' One of the chief arguments heard, and one that has the least foundation, is that the project is too expensive and that the cost of the land is too high. Many people seem to have the idea thnt it is planned to spend the entire $25,000 for the prooetty. This is not the case. Umpqua Post of the American Legion that has sponsored this project h secured an option on 140 acres to be used for the airport. This field can be purchased for $100 per acre, or a total of $14,000. The remainder. $1 1,000. it to be used to imnrove and equip the field to bring it up to a point where it will be ready- for use as a first class airport. Those who are familiar with Innd values know that the price for which this property can be secured is extiemely low.
