WILL THE OREGON! AN EXPLAIN?
TO CRATER ROAD
The Portland Oregonian. in defending the supreme
court for its decision in the Crater Lake road ease, says
that the real reason why the appropriation was held invalid
was "the obvious purpose of the makers of the constitu
tion to prevent embarkation by the state in any general
abuse of internal improvement."
Is that so? Why. then, was it permissible and legal
to appropriate money to construct the portage railroad,
and maintain it at an annual loss, au internal improvement
for the benefit of the northern section of the state1?
Why, also, was it constitutional to permit a $300,000
appropriation for the construction of locks at Oregon
Citv, an internal improvement designed to benefit the
Willamette valley?
Will the Oregonian please explain why there is one
law for northwestern Oregon and another law for southern
Oregon, and why the state can embark in "general schemes
of internal improvement" in the vicinity of Portland, but
not in southern Oregon T
Perhaps." concludes the Oregonian, "these were not
desirable objects: but the makers of the constitution
thought there were; and so we have the constitution as it
is.
"We have the constitution as it is," do we? Does not
the constitution distinctly m-ovide but three supreme court
SALEM. Or,, Fob. IS. Elltor Mull
Tribune: I have received n copy of
you rodltorlal discussing the supremo
court decision on the Crater Lake
road, and regret very much that the
coutr decided against your people. I
gave the matter a number of edito
rials, but seemed to have uo Influ
ence with thorn.
I am In favor of a campaign tor
a definite good roads program. Wo
ought to make a fight so na to build
one state highway across each couuty
upon condition that the couuty put up
about twenty-five per cent of the
cost. The road then could be built by
thp state with a state appropriation
and convict labor. I would like to
come down to your town sometime
and get this proposition before your
people. It Is the solution of the good
roads problem tn Oregon, because It
would give the progressive counties
all a chauce to take part on equal
terms. The "mossback" counties
would not have to go Into It unloss
they wanted to. We have uo Seattle
fairs to put up for, and we ought to
have an appropriation of at least
$300,000 for this purpose.

THE NEWSPAPERS' OPPORTUNITY.
Portland newspapers are loud in their, assertions of
friendship for all sections of the state.
They frequently assert that they have the welfare of
all Oregon at heart. On several recent occasions they
.have trumpeted their friendliness for southern Oregon.
Now they have a change to prove it.
Let all three of Portland's papers assist in raising the
'100,000 desired to build the Crater Lake highway by pop:
ular subscription.
' - The plan is to secure one thousand subscriptions Of
$100 each, payable in two equal annual installments, the
money to be iised .ioiiltly with Jackson county's $50,000
' appropriation, under supervision of the federal govem
fment. Let the Portland papers prove good faith by cham-
pioning the cause in their columns. Let them start a fund
and receive subscriptions for the highway. Let them help
educate the public about Crater Lake and its natural won
ders, so that Oregonians will not know less about it than
the people of foreign lands know.
Crater Lake and the national park can be made a great
"resource for all Oregon. It should be so made. The met
ropolitan papers owe it to the state to help make it.
The Journal, which has given freely of its space for
Crater Lake, has sent in the first subscription of $100
for the road fund from outside the county. Let the Ore
gonian and Telegram prove their good faith by dping like
wise. Let all three open their columns and build up the
fund show that the press has the power to build a high
way to the world's greatest wonder, if the legislature
hasn't.
Or else let the newspapers quit prating of their interest
in the development and progress of all Oregon.
THE "LOG-ROLLING" BUGABOO.
So much has been said In these
columns relative to the phenomenal
cures effected by the great Fer-Don's
corps of medical experts that only
the most miraculous cures accom
plished by these 'famous experts ex-
cjte more than passing notice. The
public of Oakland and San Francisco
are familiar with the marvelous re
suits achieved. The offices at the
Hotel Moore, Medford, are now be
sieged by crowds who have either
read or heard of these wonderful
cures, and .who after spending hun
dreds of dollars with other physicians
without being relieved are now satis
fled that Fer-Don can accomplish
what others have miserably failed -to
do.

"Log-rolling" is the bugaboo blamed for many things
by the Portland Oregonian and its feeble echoes in the
state. It is the capital crime of legislatures, according to
-these wiseacres of journalism. It was the sole excuse for
the slaughter of' the normals, or murder made possible
solely by "log-rolling" by opposing interests.
As a matter of fact, no legislation, state or national,
is ever accomplished without "log-rolling," as the com
bination of certain elements to achieve certain ends is
popularly styled. No convention, no society, no collection
of individuals, can come together and do anything without
"log-rolling."
Tne Oregonian is itself championing the "assembly,"
wuiuu 10 ucBiruu uy politicians simpiy Decause it restores
log-rolling" and its possibilities, which the direct pri
mary has rendered difficult. The paper itself is the worst
log-roller in the state to carry out its aims and objects.
Yet we find it claiming as the reason that the Crater Lake
road was found illegal the fear of the framers of the con-
sniution or tne custom or log-rolling!

Dick Ferris, who recently acted aB
general manager of the Los Angeles

stated today that arrangements are

enabled to continue flying In the

hsued against him on bohulf of tho
Wright brothers.
Several days ago tho Wrights se
cured tho Injunction to prevent Paul

tho suit brought by tho "Wrights
claiming Paulhan'a bi-pjlane Infring
ed on their patents.
Ferris, who has Just arrived hero
from New Orleans, said: "Just before
I reached hero I 'received a wire from
Cloary, Paulhan'a manager, to tho
effect that the suits brought by the
Wrights for Infringement of their pat

han. As a record of this adverse
decision had not been filed during
the week, wo continued closing con
tracts for exhibition flights for Paul
