We keep Thy covenant” Mr. T. A. Raffety, Chief, State Traffic Dept., Salem, Ore., Dear T. A.: / There is something that has been bothering me for quite a while, and you, being head of the traffic depart- ment of the state, should be able to answer the question for me. • Your traffic officers are ip charge of enforcing the traffic lawB. There are those who violate these laws, and are put under arrest. That is all as it should be. • But here is where the kick comes. Why it is that your traffic officers, even though they arrest law violators in this city, or even ’ perhaps sohth of the city, force that man to travel to Medford, to appear before Justice, of the Peace 0 . a Taylor? It is donn, times without number, in this end of the MRte. One striking example 1kas brohgkt home yeS'ie'rday afternoon. An Ashland real estate man was arrested for driving with his brakes in bad shape. He admitted his fault and was ready to paV the penalty. What he did object to was being made drive 13 miles to Medford, to appear before a Justice, and then return 13 miles, when, he could have appeared before a Justice in Ashland just as easily. The arrest was made in Ashland, the traffic officer,- J. J. McMahon was in Ashland and oould have made it much more convenient for the violator This is done many times, and McMahon is the worst offender. He will not bring a man before Justice of the Peace L. A. Roberts.of this city unless it is absolutely necessary, and he sees to it many times that it is not absolutely pecessary. Why is it that your men will not bring their Viola­ tors before Judge Roberts? Is it» as has been rumored, that they refuse to do so because Roberts will not “ hit them hand enough,” that he insists that his decisions be based upon good judgment and common sense? Is it be­ cause he will not allow ‘‘back room” decisions to be made before he decides upon the pepalty which he metes out? You are in a position to correct this evil. Your de- pertinent has received some pretty hard knocks through the actions of certain of your men in this section of the state, and a little effort on your part might aid in giving it the prestige it should have. What one poor officer does overshadows what twenty good ones do. « Think it over, T. A. sincerely yours, n « Auntie Ashland. u «IrM wu eatertateers nagtoes’ ary t e b a J f c f c t a e a g h e a » t u yeey la otO’ w :» « sw e < W ' ' "All futuro «vaut», where aa adm ission charca la n a d e er ■ , w O*t stln t hut beve afe» A lle * « te r t M M h w sOSkfig fgtro- J a e tfo fc t e « « ' aseet pfwmMent 4 thè M M tiaM érl . t t t f c t t u r « W t u i e « U fc te t b e U t tlaM fc ' donations Ne donations to charities or otherw ise w ill ba made lo advertis­ ing gr Job printing — our contributions w ill be ln cash. «Bea taken la Advertising.** s ! i I I TbreeghonVRnijeoe 'th e -so le r ANO i * By C H A R U W P .
