OH SEVEN FEET
Iloguc river is booming s the re
sult of the heavy down pour of rain
for several days rising 7 6-10 feet
Wednesday. The crest of the flood
was reached about 4 o'clock Wednes
day nnd the stream is now rapidly
falling.
The stream has been rising nnd
fulling for some days, gnininfr a little
each day, with heavy driftwood pass
ing today. The waters spread out in
a menacing way in the Galice and
llellgato region.
. As a result of the flood, the United
States mail failed Wednesdny to get
across the river to Galice, this being
the first time in twenty years snch
has occurred as late as April, nnd
never before in May. W. A. Mnssie,
who has carried the mail for twenty
years from Merlin to Galice, made
tho report.
Mr. Mnssic said the river -was three
feet above the safety mark for the
ferry boat to cross, and that he was
satisfied that the river would be six
feet above the safe point by nightfall.
WOODViLLE IS ROGUE
E
Woodville will now appear on the
Southern Pacjfie time card as Kogue
JUver to comoly with the new ruling
of the post office department. The
similarity of Itoguo River to Rogue,
the siding at the top of the hill four
miles west of tho city has made it
necessary to chalice that name and it
has been changed to Dimmick in hon
or of the luto Ron Dimmick, pioneer
of Josephine county.

RISES
COUNTY
THE fact (hat county warrants aro rinding a ready sale
at J)5 routs and that it is impossible to lmy any
quantity at any less price, indicates Hint the depreciation
of thenl was tlie result of a conspiracy among speculators
and politicians who took advantage of the tightness of the
local money market to force down the price and influence
the primary election.
The action was not very patriotic, bill it is typical of
the patriotism tound among
a ,
over. s usual, me conunuuuy suuereu ny u.
There is no reason in the world why Jackson county
warrants are not 'Worth par. They are hacked by the
wealth and resources of the community and tire in effect
a promissory note issued by the county, drawing 0 per
cent interest until paid.
The expert employed by the county, J. 11. AVilson, has
finished his report for the past three years' business. He-
yond the fact that the county clerk needs another deputy
and that the sheriff needs more room during tax collec
tion periods, but little information is gleaned from its
perusal.
The expertmg consisted, for the most part, ot com
paring stubs of licenses, receipts or warrants issued with
amounts credited on the hooks. The books were found in
good condition, and the only recommendation made is
that the sheriff should remit dajl.Vor weekly to the treas
urer the cash received instead of waiting until the, col
lection register could be written up, as at present, leaving
a considerable sum in his hands" following payment days.
The county needs an auditor, whose duty it should be
to expert the books of the county monthly and to install
the up-to-date methods and simplified systems in force
in private corporations doing a similar volume of busi
ness. The present system is antiquated, involved and
unsatisfactory
Economics
By E. I. McCIure.
Economics is the .science of politi
cal government and the natural law
of social erder: and ethics is the .sci
ence of duty in conformity with eco
nomics. We have been taught to believe that
all the sin nnd suffering in tho world
is caused by man's imperfection nnd
the operation of immutable law. But
ccoiiomics proves that all the poverty
and degradation in the world is caus
ed by the defects of political gov
ernment, and shows that every spe
cial privilege that does not conserve
the common good is evil; for the com
mon good is the only good.
Dishonest profit debuses as posi
tively as theft and every selfish act
arrests development, deteriorates
character nnd weakens the will, and
because selfishness has been univers
al no good man has cvjer lived, and
tho best man living 'or dead presents
n sorry spectacle in contrast with
ideal perfection expressed in the be
atitudes. But under natural law
every individual would be a tyc. Ko
imperfection could eminnte from Om
nipotence. Every individual whether
man, animal or insect, in embryo, is a
perfect being of its species which is
endowed with intelligence to distin
guish good from evil, (the puppy or
buby knows its dinner instinctively,
and learns with one experience that
fire bums,) nnd if it obeys instinct
and reason implicitly, it will develop
character necessary to jK'rfect being
of its species as inevitably as tho
growth of body and mind.
Activity is life, and when it censc
deuth ensues. Industry would bo uni
versal with normal human beings, de
veloped in an environment of gener
osity and plenty. Free access to com
mon knowledge and tho bounty of na
ture, provided by the state, to even'
individual from infancy, would devel
op a typo of nil men, and each indi
vidual would )ossess all common
knowledge, like other species (the unt
and bee) which have reached tho ma
turity period of development. But
man is Htill in tho childhood period
civilization is but a moment of time in
eo in pari son with the illimitable ages
for the culmination of the life of the
human species, through the stages of
birth, youth, maturity, old ago and
death, which is tho natural law of
species us it is" of individual life.
Industry, emulation, and generosity
develop; idleness, competition and
selfishness degenerate. Adam Smith
expresses opjosito opinions regarding
selfishness uul generosity in Wealth
of Nations ho said "Selliidi interest i
tho providence of God, mid if politi
cal governments abstained from in
terfering with natural competition,
tho maximum of efficiency would bo
reached in nil industrial problems,"
This agreed with the belief in class
rule nnd special privileges nnd has
given him his great reputation as tho
father of political economy. Jinny
yours before, ho expressed tho trim
nrinciplo of development in "Moral
Sontiments," "I low hellish so-ever
man may bo supposed, there is evi
dently u principle in his nature that
interests him in tho fortune of others;
nnd renders their happiness necessary
to hhn, though ho derives nothing
from it but the plcubiire of seeing it."
Through civilization all human or
ganizations political, rcligiiiiis, fra
ternal, und social are governed by the
principle of selfishness. Secret ord
ers uro oatli-bouni) to tho selfish in
terest of their particular coterie of
hrothers. Tho church is in the self

warrant shavers the worm
i tf I
and Ethics
heretics arc condemned. Society is
corniced of the elite, nnd the vulgar
outsides are excluded from the select
circles of every grade and ola-. And
political governments act on the prin
ciple that mijrht is right, and enforce
their selfish will on any weaker com
etitor. The universal roisn of selfishness
can only bo understood and accounted
for by first understanding the subtle
jvowcr exercised by tho control f the
circulation of money. Kv'ery individ
ual knows whnt would liuppeu if he
should be broke without money one
can do nothing, and the practical ob
ject and constant effort of everV man
is to bo prosperous in getting money
to satisfy his desires, and the strng
jile is just as imminent to every or
ganization, whether governmental.
business or social.
Tho quantity of money in ci renin
tion fluctuates proHirtionatcly the
value of all wciilth, and every one
with wealth, whether rich or -sior, nrc
constantly menaced by the peril of
depreciation and possible bankruptcy.
There is no escaping the jsissible
danger of financial disaster in nny
investment; and the fear of poverty
and starvation makes cowards of the
strongest men in every walk of life.
Doubt and uncertainty is the oppor
tunity for the financial sharks and
vultures to offer plausiblo schemes
of pretended absolute security, the
worst of which arc but legal robbery
and the bcnt often prove to bo bad
investments.
It is this condition of uncertainty,
which no one can ccupe under the
gold standard, that compels every in
dividual to banish the impulse of gen
erosity from tho government nf his
will, for if it were permitted, the in
evitable penalty is -Mivcrty, no mut
ter if he had the wealth of Rocke
feller it would vanish like mist before
the rising sun.
There is no other remedy but tho
adoption of scientific money to re
move nil doubt of stability in value.
The first and most important educa
tion is to develop knowledge of the
principles of money to be able to n
derstand what value is. The ignorant
think money has intrinsic value, and
believe that gold is a precious metal
which gives it an intrinsic value.
There is no such thing us intrinsic
value. Value is created by human
necessities nnd desires, and fluctu
ates with tho intensity of and I ho dif
ficulty in satisfying necessities und
desires. Air bus no value, because
there is u super-abundance for oil
without price, Land bus no vulito un
til population creates demand. A
person perishing on a desert, though
lie owned a mountain of gold, would
give -it all for a diink of water or a
loaf of bread.
Scripture is often quoted that "the
love tf money is the root of all evil,"
and money is blamed tor producing
all human ills, because it in not known
tlmt a fixed and unchangeable meas
ure of value and medium exchange
is more vital than nil the measures
of (puyitity. Money is tho only mou
suro of value that is possible to bo
umdo fixed and iinHiaugenblc. But
gold," or any commodity, ns u stand
n id must necessarily fluctuate in vat
tie wjth every change in tho supply
and 'demand for money. Scientific
money alone can maintain a fixed und
unchangeable standard oO value, and
place the measure within reach of
every ouo with wettlth to exchange
beyond any possibility of manipula
tion'by fiuttneiors to make money dis
appear from circulation.
Thu desire for weallh is innate nv
nil normal ndttltn. All kvhHIi l"""
dinu'd by labor, nnd if credit mild not
ho disturbed, there would bo mi un
limited demand for lnh"" ' 1'vothu'o
wealth' ' Milixfy ideliixntlahlo desire
for wealth, beyond nit.v possibility of
the supply iwroodiiu; tho no and nut
isftu'tion that wealth N 'h to lvo.
Tho unlimited deiuuml would be coin
polled to row'tird tho limited supply
of labor iv jiml slum' of the wealth
produced by labor.
IJhbor would be stimulated under
porpotlinl prosperity. II Would re-
louse all Inhtirmx Vi-oiii ",0 strain nnd
menace of' idleness mid povertv, nnd
iimlto employment certain with jtlst
nnd'snW'sfnMory iumK,nntfoii, wltU'li
would stimulate indiftrv and product1
such snpernbundiuu'O f wealth
that sustaiice would lo in ronelt of
every individunl with lo.s exettioit
than o.xygen, when pouuty would be
as preposterous ami ridiculous as
nakedness.
The ability to ilistitutuWIi p"d from
evil is given to every normal individ
ual, nnd an infallible mentor directs
the will without nuv necessity of sub
mitting to human authority, oiood- or
beliefs. And when all mankind be
come certain of .sustenance without
nny possibility of its being denied
them than there is of oxygen, no man
wiutld violate tho dictates of con
science nnd destroy his own self-respect,
than he would mutilate his
body; government would then have no
other function but service, for there
would be no occasion to exercise the
power of might to compel' men to do
light, when there was no disposition
in any normal human being to do
wrong.
