CONCENTRATED MAIL ORDER MURDER
U FREEDOM of the individual to go as far as he iikes up­
on his own business is strenuously, if ungrammatically, de­
fended in the latest mail order monstrosity admitted to the
mails of a benevolent government. From Los Angeles a prophet
of prohibition drouth stamps his pies to drinkers, adjuring them
to stand by their ancient rights in the m atter of nose paint.
Branding as poisonous all other alcoholic decoctions, he directs
the attention of the thirsting public to a patented nostrum—the
genuine elixir of jag joy—which may be transformed to cheap
whiskey in the home. Emphasis is laid upon the alleged fact
that his concentrated bug juice may be safely sold, even in pro-
h bition territory. The shoddy printed circular bears a rubber-
stamped afterthought—“Will send just any one bottel for 25
cents postpaid if you rather like.” Close on the heels of reform
follows ever the petty grafter, the louse, the human hyena who
battens on frailty. The Los Angeles illiterate is one of these,
with his scheme to circumvent the good intentions of Oregon.
Liquor will continue to flow throatward when saloons are no
longer maintained—but the encouragement of a rascal who of­
fers an early proposal to boot-leggers is at no time part of the
prohibitory program. It’s up to the individual. Some few fools
will send their toil-won coin to the Los Angeles liquor louse, in
exchange ror his concentrated jag formula.

SPOTLESS TOWN ON THE ROGUE
T WAS “GANGWAY!” for the citizens’ shovel and rake bri­
gade in Gold Hill on that eventful Saturday which the calen­
dar records as March the 20th. For the first time in a twelve-
month the city had its civic face washed, scrubbed, shaved, har­
rowed, scraped and otherwise maltreated to its own good. The
net result is a near and present likeness to the Spotless Town of
advertising fame. Ye city is as spick and span as a little boy
going to a party. Alleys, streets and crossings, back yards and
boulevards, are alike remarkable for the welcome dearth of dirt,
waste, torn paper and tin-cannery. There were sore muscles
and smutty faces when evening called a halt to the reform, but
the city of Gold Hill was CLEAN. It should be kept so. Ere
you hoist the tomato tin beyond the backyard fence, ere you dis­
card ancient correspondence and cupboard papers to the whim
of the wind, ere you devise same devilishly simple means of cor­
rupting this hard won purity of street and byway—take thought
—take two thinks, and then—DON’T DO IT!

Reveries of a Kid
B y WA.MBA
Tell me what brothers an' made for.
And why two brothers should tight?
Wouldn’t a little sister
Make big brothers keep right?
Sister could talk to a fellow.
And ask him to take her somewhere,
Nights when the clouds seemed to gather
And h might not treat himself square.
Times when a guy loses interest,
And everything don’t go just right,
Wouldn’t a little sister
Make the dark alley bright?
Yes it’s nice to take a guy’s sister,
And go lor a drive with the roan;
But somehow the other guy’s sister
Don’t quite take the place of your own.
Cash Week! Cost Week!
Need th’ Money Week!
That’s what I am going to call
and stand by next, week. Not a
spasm, but the REAL price cut.
