THURSDAY, DECEMBER 26 , 1906 . * The following sentiments ex pressed by the M yrtle Point En terprise, while written on ao count o f local conditions recently brought to light in that town, may be read with profit by the residents ot many other towns in Oregon. “ The moral and law- abiding people o f Myrtle Point were inexpressibly shocked to learn this week ot the immoral tone that prevades and perme ates a certain class and seems to be especially prevalent among certain youths o f the city. It has been known for a long time that there was a tendency to degen eracy among certain youths, but it was not realized that it had gone the limit o f depravity. Whether the technical facts o f the identical case are proven or not there seems to be no question that there is a large moral sore in the town, and one which can and should be speedily eliminated. Past offenses have been too fre quently winked at in a spirit of tolerance and forbearance, but it is high time that people should unhesitatingly show their disap proval o f persons who are guilty of immoral conduct in the future And this should be done in the interest o f the boys and girls not yet contaminated. In times past indecent people have been re ceived and tolerated at social gatherings who should in future be made to feel that they are not welcome. No more should those tainted by vice be permitted to flaunt their immorality in the faces of decent people and inno cent children. Furthermore there should be a toning up o f lan guage and conversation, especial ly in the presence o f children. Oaths and lewd conversation have been altogether too profuse to tend toward elevated thoughts and in this a large number ot men are guilty. Let us in the fu ture tend toward an uplift in moral sentiment and give the de praved unmistakable evidence that their room is preferable to tbeir company. Either this or turn the town over to the hood lums.
