Assaulting an editor or anyone else, for that matter, does not accomplish anything, except to remind us how little the human race has advanced since the days when physical might was right, and it plainly shows the barbar ian skulking under the veneer of civilization. If the editor has any stamina in him, it intensifies his efforts. The assault upon Mr. Pattison speaks volumes for the effectiveness of the work he is doing in advancing the progress and prosperity of Central Point. SANTA CLAUS UP TO DATE.

The comet now visible in the early evening as a bright star on the western horizon is pronounced by the astron omers to be one of those strange interlopers from space whose coming is entirely unexpected. It has nothing to do with Halley's comet, which is scheduled to appear in May. The new comet is named "Comet A, 1910." Lick observatory reports that Comet A is a comet of the first magnitude as it has been seen there in full day light. The spectrum has been photographed, and it shows that the comet is shining both by reflected sunlight and by the blaze of its own intense heat. Comet A, 1910, was first observed just before sunrise at Johannesburg just before it passed the sun and began to emerge in the evening sky. It must have passed close to the sun, to which it is attributed its brilliance, and if it remains in sight long enough it should exhibit a long tail. Astronomers predict that it will remain in sight for two or three weeks. NEED OP GOOD ROADS. when the new charter was adopted, making possible a water system, he opposed tho measure, at least In such 1 form as wonld be of any particular effect, and shortly after it was adonted In opposition to bis wishes he resigned from tho board. Ho has been opposed to the water sys tem, and at tho last municipal elec tion be was tho candidate for mayor of the antl-wcter, conservative ele ment. In that campaign tho Herald vigorously opposed Mr. Freeman's candidacy, using all of Its Influence to olect Mr. LceTer because ho came out squarely for a water system, for street Improvements and other pro gressive Ideas. Theso things show something of the animus of the as sault Sunday afternoon, the newspa per artlclo complained of bolng only an opening for the attack. As to tho artlclo complained of, tho publisher ot the Horald does not claim that It was compulsory for htm to publish It. Neither does he deny that It was lack ing in that quality of courtesy for Snow. f 4-4-4- t AT THE CHURCHES. Baptist Church.

The movement started by the Commercial club to sub mit a constitutional amendment to tho people permitting counties to issue bonds for road purposes deserves the hearty support of every citizen in the state. It is the only solution of the good roads problem, for the expenditure of tho same amount of money annually that is now paid out by tho county will pay interest on a million and a quar ter dollars' worth of ffdod roads and mean no higher ratoj of taxation than at the present time, tows stories for verlflcation'of street rumors, and ln doing bo tho news paperman Is entitled to ordinary courtesy.
