Ileeman of Gold Hill believes that tho identity of a ' workman accidentally killed nt Pros pect on July 27, 1911, has at length been discovered through tho activ ities of n San Francisco detective agency says the News. Mr. Ucemnn lias been requested by tho agency to interview fellow workmen of the dead man nnd witnesses of tho accident that cost him his life, in order that proof may bo secured for tho settle ment of a substantial insurance poli cy, much needed by an aged father and mother, who resldo In Early couuty. Georgia. At tho time of the accident tlio l'rosicct power plant of the Cali fornia-Oregon company was lu pro cess of construction. Transient la borers were many, and the placing of William lime's nnmo upon tho pay roll as an unskilled laborer occas ioned no Investigation until several l;iyn later, when his crushed and bleeding body lay In camp awaiting tho coroncr'H arrival. A heavy box or case fell from a tramway whllo In traiiKlt, Ktriklug tho unfortunate man and canning lustuut death. Tho coroner's Jury returned a verdict of "tinuvoldublo accident," tho remains were Interns! nt tho expense of the company, aua William Lane, laborer, passed off tho payroll. In January, ntt mouths previous, II. W. Lane, then at Confidence, Cal., wroto his last letter to the a ted mother In Georgia, Inclosing a pho tograph. Months passed by with out any further news of tho absent hou, whose parents now began to pay tho premium upou an Insurance pol icy, which had been carried by hint for years. At leugth, fearing tho worst from his long-continued sil ence, they furnished tho San Fran cisco agency with particulars and began the search. Down In Vreka, Cal., a fellow workman of the Lane who met death at Prospect, saw tho agency's print ed circular, containing a likeness of the missing man, and Wb. struck by the resemblance, both in name, ago and features, to the victim of tho Prospect accident. Acting upon his information other witnesses of the uccldent und ncquajntances of tho dead man are being sought out. Coroner Kellogg, who presided at tho inquest, states that the features of the photographs furnished strongly resemble those of the Pros pect laborer. It is understood that u number of witnesses reside In Medford, und from tho testimony of these and tho records of the inquest, It Is hoped to establish tho identity of tho tin known William Lane, laborer, that Iho Insurance policy of Robert Wil liam Lane, errant son, may go to comfort tho declining years of an aged couple In Hnily county, floor gin. WOULDN'T IT MAKE YOU TIRED! YOUNG loliu 1). Kockoftillor, dr., Iiiih estnhlishod n ( "Unronu of Social Hygiene" Top tlio .study of the social evil and of vice and crime. This cold-blooded dilettante of morality proposes to study the erring Bister of humanity in n scientific micro scopic manner. She is to he labelled and watched and dis sected for months. Jler progress from the reformatory upwards or downwards is to be duly ticketed for purposes of study 'Uid comparison. Tins process of recording the progress ol Human trailtv is labelled "labratory work," and is expected to furnish "data as to the conditions responsible for vice and crime," just as tho study of infected details the progress of disease. .If young IIr. Rockefeller ever permits a real thought to cuter that pious dome of his, he wouldn't waste time and money trying to discover what, is clear to everyone else, that, vice and crime spring mainly from poverty and mis ery, that poverty is created by the same causes that, create wealth and that to abolish crime means to abolish pov erty Und to abolish wealth. Young Air. Rockefeller should ask himself how it. is that be has so many millions that he cannot use, when there are so many millions that haven't a crust to eat or a hole to hide in. If he answers that, he will have solved tho primary cause of vice and crime. What is the use of tinkering with the result and desul torily doctoring the disease when the infectious cause is left severely alone. Young llr. Rockefeller and his charity make one tired. REFORMING LEGAL PROCEEDURE. HE legislature's idea of reform in legal proceedure evidently consists in ereatinir new iudires and raisins; their salaries. If bills now pending become laws, approx imately $100,000 for eaclwbienuial periotl will be added to the taxpayers' burdens. Xo wonder people believe that the governor and his veto are good things. A bill which the governor vetoed two .veal's ago, which increased the salaries of all circuit judges to $ 1000 a year, has-again passed and is up to the governor a second time. Another bill increases the supreme bench bv adding two new justices at $4500 a year, with $0000 additional clerk hire, which adds $30,000 to the biennial cost of gov ernment. There are bills providing for the creation of six new circuit judgeships, three of these in Multnomah coun ty. The others create new circuits out of Polk, Yamhill and Lincoln counties for the new Twelfth district, Wash ington and Tillamook of the new Thirteenth, and Toos and Curry of the new Fourteenth. Then there is the effort to separate Jackson and Josephine counties into two circuits. uiiJs are also pending to abolish district attornevs ami create instead county attorneys, but while the legislators believe in largo salaries for judges, they have a poor opin ion of district attorneys, as the salaries' provided run from $500 to $1500, the average being $900. The bill abolishing county judges is a good one, but should provide good salaries for commissioners, who should be required to devote all their time to the work. A MERITORIOUS MEASURE. AaIONCJ the nine hundred tllr Inm'clnfiii'o i'u II li ----- "" - -" "i "ivi, Hiinii iiuiura tup county treasurer of each count v tax collector, instead of the sheriff. y This is a meritorious measure and a needed reform. Requirements for sheriff and tax collector are so different that it is a mystery how the two separate unctions were originally combined. The sheriff's duties should be anvtbiiig but clerical and the tax collector's anything but chasing criminals. Kach pursuit requires different qualifications and more satis laetory results will be forthcoming if the bill is enacted. If Eden Isn't in Rogue River Valley, Then Where Is It? To tho Mall Trlbunu: I havo read with lutercst the ar ticles lu your newspaper, and as Its along with somo of my clnlnia as ex pressed to eastern friends In my seven years sojourn in Mcdford nnd Rogue river valley I want to havo a little say on tho Garden of Kden. While I never took tho stand or made the claim that this was really Caauan's happy land, still In my east ern correspondence I did claim It equaled that goodly land where the big cluster of grapes grew, a lund flowing with milk and honey, where Boloman could build a temple equal to the ono he (lid build and not have to go to lluram for timber or cedar out of Lebanon, for Southern Oregon has them right at hand. Cunning workmen are here also, Gold, sil ver und copper, thly are hore. Say, I see I've been to modest. Tho whole of Oregon, even Portland can say so much. Rut this Kden claim opens my eyes and I see that with wator for tills valley, we havo possi bilities even up to that very ancient place wo read about, or at least we ought tor eud ubout, even moro than wo do! Hut 1 read somewhere, "Tho sons of God met together, and Satan came also!' I think that wasn't lu Kden. Well, I'm not going so far as to say tho Rogue river valley Is Kden or was Kden, but tell mo wherein It 1b behind that goodly place? For even Satan Is hero also, I am an old fellow, well on to 77 years old (young as my days hero are only my school days) having crossed llu plains with oxen lu 1K02, WtiB In Virginia City, Nov., when MflDFORD MTjTn TRTttUrm rats in a clinical labratory odd bilfs being considered bv V, .1U ,...:..l 1 11 Mark Trwajn was there and wrote for the Virginia City Knterprlse, crossed the Isthmus three times, onto via Nlcagun, twice at Panama, huve been ut Lewlstou, Idaho, Spokane and the Yackfma valley, Wash., ulso Seattle, Tacoma and to Portland.
