It has tried to be a good loyal booster for an y th in g that would help the west end o f U m atilla county an d it w ill con tin u e to boost ,for th at.

HERALD, A HoOd R iver farmer narrow ly es caped death recently w hen he wa badly wounded by an ex-con vict wh- shot him and then kidnapped hi fam ily. Other members of the fam i ly seem to have been lucky, as the convict threatened to k ill them If he w as m olested. He w as follow ed and killed w ithout havin g harmed any o f the farm er's fam ily. The convict Fagan, had ju st been paroled from the sta te p enitentiary by Governor Olcott on recom m enda tion of the S tate Parole board. All the gen tlem en in question seem to have plausible excu ses for their action, but the fact rem ains that they turned loose a degenerate upon the sta te who never should have been released. . There has been altogeth er too much o f th is sort o f th in g over the country during the last few years. Probably no one person or set of per sons Is responsible for the excessive use of the parole, but th e fact re m ains that it has been over worked. The Fagan case abundantly proves It and It is to be hoped that the e x perience w ill serve as a lesson to those responsible for the law ’s ad m in istration . T h e.sa fety of the pub lic ought to be som ew here near as im portant as the convenience of the prisoner about to be released. » fects of the com bination are evident in the first Issue of the Central Ore gonian. It is carrying more new s and more advertising than eith er of its predecessors. It is goin g to give the advertisers alt they were g ettin g before and at a little more than half tlie old cost. P rin eville is to be congratulated. H igher costs w ill force the w eaker papers out of existen ce and bring about com binations where econom ies can be effected. The man who starts new papers now, u n less there is a real need for them Is up again st a hard proposition. The recent victory of Jack Demp sey over Georges C arpentier was thoroughly decisive but it does not seem to have increased the populari ty of that gentlem en w ith the public -'ome m em bers of the Am erican Leg ion are proposing th at the Legion raise a purse to be given to any al- ‘¡ed soldier who takes the title aw ay from Dempsey w ith in one year. W hile lots of people would like to -ee the champion lose out the gen jral opinion is th at he is not Jikely to do so. If we do not have another war Mr. Dempsey w ill probably con tinue as our forem ost fig h tin g man for som e years. Most any ex-service man could ave assured the governm ent that it would have no cause to worry over low to get rid of 70,000 U. S. sold ers who are Io be discharged under tie new army reduction m easure. It was feared that some of the boys would have to be let out against heir consent, th u s breaking the overnm ent contract w ith them . No d ifficu lty w ill be found, however, or a poll of th e d ifferen t can ton ments show that a large m ajority of he soldiert- desire their discharge. Just as we start work on th is job he Oregon editors are h avin g tbeit, nnual convention a t Bend, the W ashington editors are h avin g theirf t Mount Ranier and the M ontana ditors are h avin g a convention a* ila cier nation al park. A in ’t it great to be an editor? THE UNCHECKED SPEED COP St. H elens Mist. In our opinion the "speed cop" he io more righ t to travel at a speed In xccss of the state law u n less it be vhen he is ch asin g a speeding auto, han has th e lo w ly and hum ble tax ’ayer, w ho pays the b ill, builds the oad and drives at the speed specified >y law . Speed cops are necessary, nt th ey should drive as they tell ■thers to do. T hey are a portion of he stron g arm of the law and they hould set an exam ple for the ordi lary m otorist. “ I have no information that leads me to believe there will be any reduction of coat rates this season.” Senator Reed Smoot, of Utah, »ay»: ” I have taken up the question with the Interstate Commerce Commission and they informed me that they do not anticipate any reduction in coal rates in the immediate future.” E. Morris, Chairm an of the Central Freight Aas’n, »ay»: “ Under existing conditions, no general reduction in the freight rates can be justified or made effective.” / The above statements from men who know should dispel the expectation that the present level of freight rates on coal will be lowered this season. Any furth er delay in buying on this account, therefore, can mean nothing but trouble. The coal mines cannot produce and the railroad cannot transport a year’s coal requirements in four or five montns. W hat is sought oy coal operators, railroads and dealers, and what is for public welfare is a normal demand and movement of coal —Not a delay till winter and then an overwhelming rush.

A GOOD MOVE AT PRINEVILLE A new paper reaches us th is week: the C entral Oregonian. W hen It came we looked It over a bit doubt fu lly . but aoon learned th at It Is the result o f a consolidation of fhe tw o old papers, the Journal and the Call.

Aa a result neith er paper w as all that It m igh t have been and the busi ness men w ere sp en d in g n eed less money a d vertisin g In tw o papers.
