Thus we are reminded that another political campaign is n the offing. This time next year will see us in the thick of it. f IOHN J. RASKOB, chairman of " the Democratic national com mitee, wants to make prohibition the big issue. Plenty of other Democrats demur, preferring to view with alarm what a frightful mess Hoover and the Republicans have made of business. Prospects are good at the pies- ent moment that in 1932 the Demo ) crats will repeat recent history and precipitate such a fight before and during their convention that they w ill have no chance of electing the candidate who is nominated. THE Republicans aren't worry ing about candidates. They will meet in convention, nomiuale Hoover as a matter of course, and then tacltle the job of electing him. If business conditions improve materially by the full of 1932. as they are expected to, the job won't be particularly difficult. If business conditions DON't Im prove, it will bo another story. Member of Former Higher Curricula Board Says O. S. C. to Blame for Present Situation. (By CHARLES A. BRAND) (Editor's Note The recent re port and recommendations of the Federal Department of Education, with regard to the University of Oregon and Oregon State college, has attracted a great deal of at tention In educational circles throuhout the state. C. A. Brand, of Roseburg, for ten years a mem ber of the state board of higher curricula, which was replaced by the state board of higher education has made a careful study of the federal report, and his discussion of the recommendations is contain ed in the following article, which he has prepared.) These are trying days for those who are interested In education in Oregon, and that means most of us, but they are days of prom ise, too. As a member of the for mer state board of higher curricula for ten years and acting chairman for two years, I have been in tensely interested In Ihe present reorganization of the state's edu cational system a reorganiza tion which was Inevitable not be cause the state's program was wrong hut because it was not ad hered to.

Trout and Netting Season Opens April .1 5 Good Sport Reported to Be in Prospect. HERE was a long period in our 1 technical school, interested primal' history when party politics really did have something to do Kith prosperity. TI1I3 was the per iod (luring which the Democrats Hood for free trade, or something resembling it. while the Republi cans upheld the principle of pro tection. American prosperity, built on a high standard of living nnd de pendent almost entirely upon the domestic markets, couldn't stand free trade. It was thus that the tradition that national prosperity is affected by Party politics grew in. The tradition still exists, but the a burning quest I nets no longer support it.

The occupants of the automo bile waited for one train to pass at the crossing, but were hit by an other train passing on another trad;. Every fatal crossing accident makes It plainer than ever that the Ideal system would be to eliminate ALL grade crossings on highways. That would add tremendously to safety. But it would add staggeringly to cost, and in these days of exceed ingly high taxation, coupled with efforts to get back to normal busi ness conditions, we are beginning to realize that we can t have every thing we want, regardless of what It costs.

With a group of Roseburg friends as witnesses, Margaret Bennett, 20, of Berkeley, Califor nia,, swathed in wmte imuunges and plaster casts, became the bride of Jack Jaggers, 21. of Berkeley, in the general hospital at Grants Pass yesterday. When an automo bile accident at Gold Hill Satur day interrupted the plans of Miss Bennett and Mr. Jaggers to come to Roseburg for their wedding, the bride refused to let n few broken bones stand in the way of the scheduled ceremony, and the mar riage ceremony was conducted in the hospital room, where the bride lay tightly bound in bandages and wearing a heavy cast that sup ported the bones of a mangled leg.- Mr. Jaggers, Miss Benn.ett.nnd Mrs. M.

The fire is believed to have started from a stove in which a fire had been lighted to warm up the hatchery lor the final hatching of the season. No insurance was carried. Fishing equipment Is being put Into shape these days and hund reds of fishermen throughout the county are eagerly, awaiting day light of Wednesday, April 15,- when the trout season opens throughout the state of Oregon. Klshlng in the streams of the Umnnna valley this year Is expected to be the best It has been for many seasons, for conditions have been favorable for heavy runs of fish, and the streams are reported to he teeming wltn wild life. Early fishing, It is reported, will probably be best In the smaller streams. Cow creek Is reported to be particularly good this year, and there will be many fishermen go Ine in that direction, it is expect ed. The main rivers are still a little muddy, and trout fishing will not reach Its best there until the water clears. Tributary streams, how ever, it is claimed will offer abnn dune sport, with every outlook for large catches. Little Buccess with fly fishing is expected this early in the season and most fishermen will resort to bait. Salmon fishing has been in pro gress for considerable time and some excellent catches have been made. Trout, at least 10 inches In length, have also been secured, but on the 15th trout six incites or over may be taken. Salmon Run Heavy Due to the water conditions, few salmon came into the Umpnlin riv er during the commercial fishing season. Aflcr the nets were taken out tiie heavy runs started, so that an unusually large number or sui- inon ond steelhead trout have reached the upper river spawning beds. The salmon run Is always followed by a large run of sea' going trout, so that the river and creeks are reported lo bo ejtecep tlonally well slocked this Benson, giving every prospect of fine sport. The season will continue until November 110.

Hundreds of acres of ash-covered soil, the debris of homes, and the smoke-filled atmosphere remained however, as an Incentive for vigi lance. Pressed into service at the first onslaught of tho flames, forest rangers and volunteers patrolled the fire inrested areas which ex tended over part of what, was once Wisconsin's forestry domain.
