And the news story is descriptive of the situta- tion; More than 80 new laws passed by the 'flVPgtth legislature at the late session have already gone into effect. That is 80 more laws that people have to know and obey. Saturday 370 more new laws, also passed by the recent session but without the em ergency clause, go into effect. Subtracting the laws Which repealed old ones, something in the neighbor hood of 400 new statutes will go ofa the books for the regulation of individuals and corporations. At the legislative session before the last one, morfe new laws were written, for people to know and obey. At the session before that there were new laws. New laws have come from every legislative session that ever convened. Meantime, city councils have been piling up the regulations for people to know and obey, Ik) on ties have been doing it. States have ben doing it. The federal government has been doing it. They have all been doing it for years past and undoubtedly they will he doing it in the years to come. • And groping along through life goes the poor old citizen, trying to get along in the world and still frying to know and obey all the laws that are turned out for his regulation like sausages at a sausage fac tory.—Rosebuyg Newa-Review. . « * X X MÖU1WV tÄ W Ä U O iS l eCCM WORHHM h im 1 toAô'to o to w iu '—w va < I taAs BtN)W 1 E 18 - 1 W ta 1 n y Ì » . i M l /U K 11* IB S I À y 1--------- • -—J I aari iTgaril nr vnMAi s ; t a ■ ■—J Bdilol TttUUto: bike 6t tlrt» rifetasta'res Which will appear on the ballot at the spec ial state election to be held Jane 28, is Whtat ft ktaoWta as Critafcfr Uhlt System Thia measure 1» one that can't«» adopted by any county when It desires to do so, ah& IntbiVis a tkdlcal chaAfcb In the management and manner of ttaxdtlota or Hl di the school dis tricts outside of the first blAss districts, which are automatically exempted from the operation of the law. It la,not my purpose to dis cuss the merits of,. or objections to, this law and its application to Jackson county. I hare an opin ion, but some of my best friends think differently; it is a proposi tion which has two sides. There is one very serious thing, about it, however, .the fact that the voters of Ashland and Medford have the same chance to vote on it as the people /residing ’ in the oustlde districts. This, it semes to me, is, absolutely unfair, if the people in these outside districts want the County Unit system, then we have no business voting it down; if they don’t want it, we have no busi ness putting it over on them; they are the ones to profit or suf fer from it; they are the ones to pay the bills and get the rekllts. The Spring Festival GENERAL The spring festival is over dreams of those who had planned aud drilled and worked for its presentation, and otoce a gain Ashinb d has Shtowh a community spirit—ft willingness to es tablish in the town those-institutions of most worth. The festival was a thing of exquisite beauty. From an artistic standpoint it was never surpassed in this city. It is oiie of those splendid programs which create a love for the artistic and beautiful. It was moot worthwhile. But it did more than entertain. It did more than please. It showed once again what splendid co-op eration and community spirit will do in making for success. It showed the appreciation of the city of Ashland for the work being done at the Southern Oregon Normal school, and appreciation of the fact that Ashland has before her the possibility of be coming one of the educational centers of the state. Does “ absence make the heArt-gfoW fonder” as says the old adage. It may not do exactly that but it at least makes jx>ssible joy of reunion. Almntri Dhy for the old grads of the Southern Oregon Normal school has passed and In the mem ories of the many who were present there are de lightful thoughts Stored away of the joys of that re union—happy thoughts, worthwhile thoughts. So ofteh the pressing affairs of every-day life crowd out the memory of school days—the happy as sociations, the pranks, the carefree life. Those happy thoughts become uncertain memories. But a reunion with old friends brings hack those dreams, those carefree days, and adds to the store of happy inridents of a lifetime. Partings are more worthwhile when the joy of reunion can compensate for the pain of separation. The r nited States Supreme court decides that to leave a fire near a national forest without to tally extinguishing it» is a criminal offense. Preserva tion of our great forests is a task of the government which seems to he more fully awake to the import ance of its duty in this direction, all the time.
