HAWLEY IDOL
AT ROSEBURG
For anyone to utter word of
disrespect toward Congressman Wil
li! c. Hawley tn Rofiebunt or
Douglas county either In erRon or
politically la about equivalent to
placing himself In a position where
he will be taken out and hanged
on the first limb that can be
reached on the first tree In sight.
Thus oplncth State Senator B. L
Eddy, prominent legislator, who
was in Salem Wednesday on what
he termed a personal mission.
Senator Eddy admitted that aome
ot his friends have asked him to
flirt wlUi the congressional nom
ination but he says his flirting days
in politics are over.
"Yon Imow It wouldn't really be
very healthy for m man down in
our county to talk about Tunning
for congress from this district even
if he wanted to," said Senator Eddy.
"And I dont want to In the first
place. But Mr. Hawley stood up
for Roseburg when the soldiers
home matter first came up and
stood by Roseburg through thick
and thin when it looked as though
Roseburg might lose it. No. it's as
much as a man's life is worth down
our way to say anything a;ainst
Mr. Hawley. And if a man came
out for congress against him down
there I don't know anv scheme of
punishment that has as yet been
devised which would be adequate
to take care of him."

FAVOR BUILDING
OF SIDEWALKS
TO AID JOBLESS
Enforcement of the sidewalk or
dinance, which states that owners
of property abutting streets must
provide walks, will do much towards
giving employment to a large aroup
of men depending upon this class
of work, accomplish what the sta
tutes demand and safeguard the
lives of many school children who
are forced to zlg-utg back and forth
or else walk in the streets, and
advocates of this movement are
looking to relief at this time.
While aome property owners may
object to additional assessment;
upon the property, at the same time
this is spread over a certain period
and any costs entailed can be
checked against charity or unem
plovment relief contributions. -
Proponents point out that mater
ial costs are tlie lowest In years,
many men are In need of work and
that the walks could be surveyed
and constructed under the direction
of city olflcials whose duties at this
time of year are not as ardorous as,
at other times.
Should the city order a general1
enforcement of tlie ordinance, deal
ers in the necessary supplies will
be helped, additional men and
trucks needed in connection with
the actual labor. i
