tho view that tho success has been

Tho address of welcome was de

FOREST FIRE BURNS
ROGUE RIVER HOME
Valuable fir timber on an area ap
proximately two miles wide and four
miles long, the residence of .1. C
Williams, In Itogun Itlvor. in tlx
western part of Jackson county, and
many buildings owned by farmers in
tho district badly burned, Is the
toll of a forest fire one mile souih
ot Hoguo Itlvor Wednesday nlghl.
according to word rcachlni; this city
tonight.
The fire has been burning In this
district for several adys, but fanned
by a stiff brec.e from the north, II
spread to alarming proportions Wed
nosday and every mailable man In
(ho vicinity of Koguc Hlver was
called out to combat the flumes. The
firs Was roporled under control tills
afternoon, tho It was still burning
inonacingly.
'Mr. Williams lost all his belong
ings whon his home was dc.drnod.
It was doclured the hnusn was fired

Idnzes a mllo away.
NOT THE NEWSPAPER'S FAULT.
I
N IiKSI'OXSK o him ny inuirics from anxious friends
mid relatives as well ns from llic men called to the
colors, Hie Mail Tribune stales Hint the reason that, it does
not print the names of the men drafted to leav e the coming
week and for whom the farewell entertainment is to be
given tonight, is because the local draft board refuses to
furnish them for reasons best known to itself.
Of course the matter is of public interest and the list
of July drafted men has loii" since been printed in the
other counties of the state
K-iiowh. mid the individuals knows lierlinns. it is none of the
public's .'business although the public is requested fo
provide entertainment and a rousing farewell for whom?
The success of the draft lies in the co-operation of the
public. 'This co-operation is best secured by the fullest
publicity. This publicity has been requested by the war
department and freely given by the newspapers but the
local draft board has not taken advantage of it.
The Mail Tribune has repeatedly requested for publi
cation a list of the men as classified in the various classifi
cations of the draft so the people would know who were
called and who evaded service, whether the law was being
a1 ministered as contemplated, without favoritism but
the lists has never been forthcoming.
The Mail Tribune also requested the list of those who
were reclassified in accordance with the' work or fight
order of the war department but has never been given a
name.
Tins draft calls are public business not private busi
ness, and the best protection the draft board has is the
fullest possibh publicity of its act ions. Tin; policy of the
people be damned cannot he applied to the selective ser
vice law and keep up public interest in its operation.
It is not the Mail Tribune's fault that it has not been
able to supply information concerning the activities of that
close corporation, the Jackson county draft board.
