A STRENUOUS YEAR .
It is a year this month since the present management
of this paper took hold of the property, and it has bee:
a most strenuous year for the editor. During it, lie has
been thrown into jail in a strange city, convicted of crini
inal libel after having been denied the right to introduc
evidence in his own behalf, been assaulted on the streets
three times, publicly threatened a score of other times.
and his enemies are numbered by the score.
On the other hand, those county officials who sought
to humiliate the editor have been retired to private life
by the people, who thus expressed their opinion of their
abuse of power; he has had the united support of the
papers of Oregon in his fight for unmuzzled press, his
political battles have been successful, his friends far out
number his enemies, and the circulation of the paper lias
doubled.
This is the net result of a year's effort in trying to
rim a live and an aggressive daily newspaper in southern
Oregon, something never before attempted of telling the
truth and printing the news and fighting for the right as
it was given to see it. The paper has been outspoken and
fearless hence the enemies and hence the friends who
like it for the enemies it has made.
EXPERT THE BOOKS.
iiie grand jury s report recommending Mat Mo conn
ty's books be exported brings into public notice once more
the need of modernizing the courthouse records.
There is no question but that the books need experting
Records in many oftices are m a iearhil jumble. New
methods and new systems are needed, and the hand of
an expert wanted to straighten county finances.
It has long been asserted that irregularities existe
rn certain offices in past administrations. These should
be uncovered, the daylight let in, and the careless or crook
ed officials or their bondsmen forced to make good any
shortage.
' Last election the voters of Jackson county declared
for experting the records. It was made a campaign issue
and there is no doubt of public; sentiment on this point,
County Judge Neil, County Clerk Coleman and nearly
all oiiieials at the courthouse favor it. Now comes the
grand jury demanding it. In the face of all this, what
excuse can the county commissioners have; for not plae
ing an expert at work!
J.I at uieir next meeting Me commissioners again re
fuse to obey the mandate of the people, they will be askc
who they are shielding and protecting from investigation
Judge E. E. Kelly has been elected fighting editor of
The Tribune and accepted the job. Anybody looking for
trouble is requested to see him at once and get satisfaction.

LED TO BE PUT ON
AT EMERYVILLE
EMERYVILLE, Cat., Sept. 24, What
la believed to bo a move on the pari of
me race track promoters to iillnr
uuinonniy reeling against the race
track was announced today and as a re
aultthe "lid" will be on when tho seta
son opens in November.
While the attiduo of the trustees is
not to close the saloons they are making
a strong errort to regulate them nnd
stamp out much of the vice that has
heretofore existed during tho racing
season. Severn resorts of a question-
anie character have been closed and
word has been passed to all licpior deal
ers that female patronage will result
in a discontinuance of their licenses.
Yesterday the renewal of all saloon
licenses in the city came up nnd as
tbero has been a more strict observ
ance of the ordinance of late there were
no revocations.
IlKUI.l.V, Sept. 21, Kcnliziiig that
something must be done lit once to re
dlice the public debt mi, I put the fiiiiin
einl condition of the country on a more
firm footing (he Knier is preparing to
day to reorganize Ocmmny's finum-ml
system. Having outlined the heaviest
increase in taxation the country has
known in modem times, he is explain
ing why the money is imperatively
needed.
The Kuiser's views are given to the
public through memlMTs of his cabinet.
It is understood however that his views
ur t the opinions of his miutsters in
several instance.
Not only have the deficits of the
treasury increased largely it is pointed,
but (.reusing obligations have been met
by further borrowing until the econeiu
ical development of the fatherland is
retarded, its credit damaged and its in
teriiatioual prestige jeopardized.
The public debt has grown from :M,
OOli.olK! in 177 to the surprising total
of l,iMi;,oii0,H0(l. Successive leans have
been floated until the market is glut
ted with government securities and the
level of other quotations is perilously
low.

Which Sounds the Best?
It cost $12.00 at the least for a peddler to sell a range.
Ask him and son what a proficient liar he is. It costs me
not to exceed $2.50 to sell a range far superior to the
peddler's in many ways. Just tell him I told you so and
am able to back it up. I know you can dance on the
oven door; you can pound the lid's together; he can let
it fall from his wagon; but he don't tell you that they
eat wood like a nigger kid eats molasses. 'lie don't toil
you about high taxes. lie don't care whether it goes
wet or dry, or whether the county's books are exported
or not. He won't tell of the churches he has helped to
build m Jackson county. With him it's get your money
and get. You will never see him anv more after this
time, but Sliortie Oarnett is with vou always, paying
taxes to keep up your roads and sell's a better range for
less money.
