TO -MAKE It certainly looks as though Dr. Freldman was a little slow improving to the government and the general ' public that he Is going to make good. We had considerable faith, not par ticularly In Freldmann but In the be lief that some one would find the serum that would save the human race from the white plague. Anything Is worth a trial along this line whether It be presented by. a medical college, a quack or a fore'gn physician, for It must be remembered that some of the best thmgs even In the scientific world have been stumb led upon although the scientific law teaches research and science. But Dr. Freldmann l in a way losing cast with the laymen. He never has been taken very seriously by the pro fession, and now that he Is falling to make proei- showing It Is doubtful If his star will much longer hang on the horizon. . In a letter from Dr. Molitor of La Grande, who Is now Jn New York, and who has Investigated carefully the Freldmann claims, there Is sufficient said to indeate that the foreign .phy sician has yet much to do before he convinces Americans that he really has the serum of Value. All La Grande people, knowing Dr. Molitor as' they do, know that his broadness of vls'on would not In any way permit preju dice against Freldmann and therefore a clear, fair estimate of the value of this cure as can now be given, would be given by Dr. Molitor If he was willing to go on record In the mat ter. Butthe doctor s not willing to condemn Dr. Freldmann even yet, nor Is he willing to accept the harsh criticism which In many cases have been heaped upon the foreigner. In fact all that Dr. flUoltor will say at this stage of the experiment Is that he hardly thinks the Freldmann serum has obtained the results which were expected of It up to the present time. This coming from one whom we.know ' to be thoroughly conservative means that the serum Is not nearly, accom plishing what was claimed for it.

Where the district at torneys do res'dg and go out of office 'n 1914, as In Union county, the gov. ernor thn appoints his successor ln stead of letting the people elect, which is the American way of doing things. There seems to be no excuse offered for this unheard of attempt to run the stale of Oregon by appointment from the gubernatorial chair. Doubtless no one at the State house is able to offer an excuse that would be sane to tho people. To usurp and take away the power of the people to choose their officials is a serious matter and endangers every free institution lm th state. And this is exactly what is being attempted In the new county at torney Taw. There Is one thing for the people to do If they object to having their In dependence throttled and tha. is to put the referendum firmly against the new law. We have never heard a man holding the offic,"of district, attorney express himself on this question, and in fact we must admit that we did not know whati the law contained untQ our at tention -was called to It by a citizen of the state who doea not hold office nor does he ever expect to hold office. There bi nothing to be considered wten Investigating this law but. the Independence of the people and the faJrtnesa of peTmfttlng the voting body of Orgon to choose their own officials. rather- than to let the state house riiigs appoint a man In every county in tlhe state thus building up and per petuating a machine for political pur poses. wl h a few "non-partisan Georges" on i the Job it Is very apparent that sel- : fiahness Is the paramount Issue.
