Oregon seems to feel hetter after getting: a lot of those "No's" out of of her system. Prospects for a prosperous fall have seldom been brighter. From every corner of the state, city and farm community, comes the same opinion the income tax is dead in Oregon. f such is the wish of the majority of Oregon'n people, some new plan of revenue must be found. We cannot continue giving thumbs down on everything and expect the state to maintain itself. llyrd'a flight remarkable particularly because he carried n crew of three other men and cruised for several hours be yond the time required for the trip, deserves greatest praise in spite of the disappointment in his erroneous landing. And while some observers will repeat more emphatically than ever, "Lucky Lindbergh," the Iiyrd experiment can only Reive to emphasize the flying ability and reckoning powers of the man who first flew straight from New York to Paris, ahead of schedule and alone.

The department takes a tre mendous amount of work and is being developed gradually but will eventually make, we believe, the outstanding fea ture of the paper. It is something wo had planned for more than two years and it is gratifying to know that the im provement is meeting popular approval. Judd Gray, according to Dr. Alex llershfield, state alien ist of Illinois, "is not insane just a fool," That is evidently what the jury thought when it found him guilty of first-degree murder. True, Dr. llershfield says, Cray must have committed this crime under the influence of an obsession caused by love. ,Put that does not make him crazy. Dom ination of one person by another through love is quite pos sible, love being a strange thing. Hut it does not constitute insanity in the case of a man sane from every other view point." In other words, people who do crazy things under the influence of love are not really cra.y, but only acting as if they were so. This may seem to be a sort of distinction without a difference, but intelligent people will get the point of it. In fact, victims themselves usually appreciate their position pretty well. The man who says he's "crazy alout" a woman, and acts the pail, still shows his essential sanity. The insane man doesn't know he's insane.

Itoiii vanoun opinions . expressed since Tuesday it U njiimient that eittier u pure nimket load piosram or even tlie defeated project if projXM'ly . understood would have carried by a Rood majority. Certainly in the city of l.a Gnindo, nt least, there is a definite disposi r' tinn to favor any extension that will lirinjf all-weather roads to the farms of the valley. ' The small iuai;in by which the road Itonds were defeatedi j tin's week indicate the possibility of a new and more care- !'" ! ,u"y desig-ned market road project and should be an en-i !, cnuraBement to continue the effort the coming year. At j ; ;; the (feneral election a year from this fall the question should be submitted again either as a complete plan or as several; " distinct market road extensions, with the features considered! 5 objectionable by some sections of the county either elim- y inuted or submitted by themselves with alternate plans. ' ! There is no question in most citizens' minds about the importance, and value of more market road facilities. Oon-i j trary to the old idea of road construction, we have had enough experience with Rood roads and their advantages to know that we pay tor good roads whether or not we have them. Union county already has a fine system of all-year roads, connecting every important community. There are also some fine market arteries in various parts of the valley but there still remain many rich and prosering agricultural districts that should be included in an ever-enlarging road; network. - More and more the valley is beaiminjf diversified dairy operations, small fruit and vegetable growing and tho secret of more farm population lies as much with im-j proved transixirtalion facilities as with unythiiiff else. The) defeat of the road bonds at this election does not in any way1 indicate lack of appreciation lor that fact rather does it emphasize it and following up .tho advantage will gradually meet with approval throughout tho county.
