! Now Iho police of our great religious
renter, and moral fountain-head
'ortland, are being called upon to ex-
laln tho discrepancy between their
i nodest salary and luxurious homed,
ligh-powered autos, and disburBenien1
)f spondulicks lavishly. The chief nan
Uncovered a prosperity not in keepliu:
lth patient iwunding of the pave
nents. For the last year, the hick dis-
Tlcts have been regaled with confiden
tial corner Information about this out
fit flawless upholders of the law.
They were saturated with sanctimoni
tusness, salivated with spirituality,
and assaying a high percentage uf
every virtue worth a whoop. They
were going to kick sin out of the Hose
City, with a brass band, and here they
are accused of letting bootleggers,
drug peddlers, and the hellhounds sub
sisting off commercialized vice, put
something green In their paws. The
report that 90 per cent of tho lot hud
wings, and were singing In angel
choirs, seems to havo been grossly
exaggerated, but the heavenly purity
proiwganda was effective whilo It
?orked.
. AN EDITOR ELUCIDATES
(Klamath Falls Herald)
Now and then 1 hear said, by
those with heads big lis tubs, and
brains small as fleas,, that tho
editor Is afraid to publish certain
news. Not on your llfo, he is not
afraid. He merely knows more
about the alleged news, and being
mostly untrue, he does not pub
lish It.
Something should bo done nt once
about the Russian girls at Gensan,
Siberia, who "brave the winter woutli
er, with Insufficient clothes." They
can not stand It, like American womanhood.
Tho first slash of the taxes has been
announced by tho now governor. The
highway commission, which recolves
no pay, under the present diabolically
extravagant regime, will be remuner
ated, it Is proposed, to tho tune of be
tween $10,000 and Jl.r.000 per nnnum,
enrh. This stupendous reduction move
will no doubt be -knocked In tho head
by' tho partisan upper houso or tho
legislature.
Progress is Inevitable. Tho "pioneer
small hall of tho Nut", is now Iho
"Oriental Ilnllroom."
- Tho Albertu, Canada, schoiilma'am,

threatens to repeat tho dose. '

ii ITT 7 HAT we do or fail to do in public education will largely do-
VV terminv the future of our experiment in Democracy."
This statement ly a prominent American Kducator correctly ap
praises the (.'iiprciiio importance of education, in this country.
Assimilation of lhc forcinu born, removal of illiteracy, -adjustment
of inequalities in educational opportunity, und inculcation of
proper ideals coiiccrnini? our form of government arc the outstand
ing problems of our educational system.
To carry on this work successfully we need proper school equip
ment, wc need experienced and capable educators nnd teachers, but
nbove all wc need an awakened public interest.
Toward this end the I'arent-Tcachcr Associations of this district
and throughout the country are doing an invaluable work. They are
providing that close association between the family and the school
which is essential if the best results are to be attained.
The situation in Oregon has recently been complicated by the pas
sage of the Compulsory School Bill. There are some who feel that
those who opposed this bill oppose the public school system. This,
of course, is absolutely untrue. Oregon already had a compulsory
.fhool bill. The measure passed recently, was opposed because it
deprived parents of the right to educate their children as they thein
rtclves believed best.
', Everyone believes in churches. They arc a great force for good.
IJlit everyone would not favor a compulsory church bill. It is the at
tack on personal liberty and constitutional rights that was resented,
not the movement lo strengthen a worthy cause.
There is, however, reason to hope that ultimate good may come
from the passage of the school bill, although that measure as it stands
eaai scarcely endure, certainly not unless the constitution of the
United States is amended.
The good that may come, will be through greater public interest
in the entire school problem, closer supervision over all schools, pub
lic, private nnd parochial, and the elimination of the foreign language
school, M'htch is a needless obstacle to any desirable program of
Americanization.

T11KHK are more gorgeous ears than mine, with greater lus
tre do they shine, they pass in gaudy gangs; with silver
doodads here and there 1 see them on the thoroughfare, but have,
no jealous pangs. For many cars are bought on time, and all
the panoply sublime means creditors in view; nnd every time the
owners drive some fourteen miles, or maybe five, there is a pay
ment due. My ancient bus has rusty springs, nnd ns along the
road is swings it creaks and knocks and groans; but none can
say, "So strike me blind, your paynienls are a month behind, now
hand me forty bones." It is embarrassing lo ride in pomp and
circumstance ami pride along the (ircat White Way, and f;nd
that creditors in hordes are climbing on your running-boards to
bone you for their pay. Far better tool a rusty boat whoso horn
has a discordant note, whose cylinders all miss, than journey in
a noble vim you bought on the installment plan, for debt destroys
your bliss. And what is true of motor eai.s is true of plug bills
and cigars, of prunes and gingerbread; the greatest bliss a mor
tal knows is in his bosom when he owes no man a single red.

Ilcilcvcs In Divine Healing.
To the Editor:
1 have Just read in Monday's Mail
Tribune the report of the sermon
against Divine Healing, which was
preached in Medford last Sunday
evening. It is with a feeling of deep
pity for the preacher of that Ber
mon that I" write these lines. It is
sad to know that when Jesus walked
the earth 19 centuries ago and per
formed many miracles, most of which
were miracles of healing, there were
some ut that time who refused to
believe. And most of the church
leaders in that day were on the side
of the disbelievers. And It is sad
to know that today we see some, even
in the ministry, who are putting
themselves in that class of disbe
lievers.
It is hardly worth while to spend
time trying to convince such a one
that there have been wonderful
miracles of Divine Healing in Jack
son county in these last few days. It
is just as silly to argue against such
miracles, ns to arguo that the sun
does not shine. Those of us who
know God and have experienced His
power of healing, in the name of His
son, Jesus Christ, know whereof we
speak.
The man who said there was not
an honest man in the whole world,
only proved himself dishonest: nnd
the man who says there are no
present day miracles of Divine Hei.l
ing only proves that ho does not
know what he is talking about.
