Tlns is Bn unbelievable place An old New England town, in the middle of the corn-belt; a Rip Van Winkle village, sprawling up and down rocky hills, like an Italian cascade; a Yankee meeting house and an Old South church, rubbing elbows with Al Capone hang outs, doing a brisk business in tinned alcohol and raw moon shine. And as a final touch the home of General U. S. Grant! Anyone trying to classify Galena, would be in the pre dicament of the chameleon thrown on a Scotch plaid. It can't be done. It's everything and .it's nothing. It's "a city that' was" and yet it's as mod ern as Cicero, 111., only last night federal officers raided the down-town district, and a truck load of aliens and alco holic evidence, will be brought to court in Ottawa tomorrow morning. East Dubuque an other naughty place was raid ed at the same time.' Yet "the city that was" is probably the nearest approach to an authentic title. . When Chicago was merely a trading post insane dunes and swamps on the shore of Lake Michigan, Galena was a thriving slave holding metropolis. Although it is 14 miles from the Misissip pi, it was the chief port of call for river boats north of St. Louis, thanks to the Galena river, and also thanks to the lead and zinc it produced then, find still produces, or prob ably will as soon as the depres sion is over.''.' In fact the mayor of Galena is authority for the statement that the first settler in Cliicrfgo was a Santa Domin go negro a slave, who escap ed from bis Galena master, and built a hut approximately whore the Chicago Tribune tower now stanfls. "The city that was!" The .population of Galena is now less than 4000 and decreases at every census. One hundred years ago it was over 10,0001 The Galena river, a century Ago, was 1200 feet in width, it is now 20 feet, any good high school athlete could jump across it. A pen sketch made in 1859 shows Galena on the bank' of a, large river, with a broad levee at which four large side-wheelers are docked the names of three are the Minne sota, the Ben Campbell and the Saint Paul. . High on the hill above a huge American flag is flying from a high flagpole, on the terraced hills are stately mansions many with twostor ied pillars and porticos in the southern stylo. (Those man sions by the ' way are still there.) Lower down, just above the smokestacks of the steam ers, one can see the roof of a large custom house. And today t No levee. No river, just a sludgy creek, that closely resembles an irrigation ditch. The Illinois Central depot, an express company, a lumber yard, no sign of activ ity in any of them, they are where the steamers once-stood, and small boats plied busily around them. What lias become '-of the river t The mayor, a graduate of the University of .Chicago, about 30 years old, and a native son, who we were honored to have as an escort, explains it by two factors: one the build ing of locks on the Galena river which resulted in a filling up of the river bed, by silt and mud; and two, cutting down forests in Wisconsin near the river's source, which decreased the water supply. Whatever the cause there is no doubt about the result. The Galena river is gone, and the commer cial glory of Galena with it. Galena came by its name honestly, as every miner knows. Galenn is the proper term for sulphite of load ore. The lead mines are not operating now but they were a few years ago. They may operate again if the price of lead returns to world war levels. But the cost of operation due to the presence of water and the necessity of pumping, renders this rather improbable. Speaking of water, the busi ness section of Galena like San Francisco, is constructed' on "made land." The mayor showed us the old jail which was built under the old market place. It was abandoned when a woman prisoner was DROWNED. Nearby is the De Sota ITouse where General Grant was often a guest, and in the dining room of which Jenny Lind snng. It was once the largest building in Galena, seven stories high. But many years ago it started to settled so they took off the two top stories, reversing the process in Medford, when Emil Mohr put one on. The De Sota House is still running, and in cidentally serves excellent meals at reasonable prices, but no doubt five stories are suffic ient. There is also the Logan House, which is being run pre cisely as it was during the Civil war period. At the noon day meal, huge platters of meat and vegetables and pitchers of milk are placed upon the large table, there are no waitresses, the guests pass things around from hand to hand. One could write a book about Galena, , hnd we believe the mayor IS writing one he has considerable leisure time, no doubt, as his. only occupation outsjde of his official duties, is acting as correspondent for Rockford and Dubuque news papers. A very well informed up-and-coming young man, Ga lena can well be proud of him. Ho ran for the city council. just as a stunt, and to win a wager. Didn't Campaign. Didn't even have cards printed (bad busi ness for a newspaper man) but he was elected oyer his demo oratib opponent, three to one. Galena it seems is normally democratic, and- Hist Honor thinks it will go for Roosevelt and Small this fall. This is the first good news for Franklin D., we have heard since our arrival. ' Small. being a Republican we asked for an explanation. Well it seems Small's opponent lives jn Chicago, and the people of Galena are agin Chicago and all its works. Apparently they are not "agin" having for gov ernor a machine politician, who regards it as perfectly proper to take a few hundred thou sand out of the public treasury, provided one returns 50 per cent, of it when' found out 1 California pears are selling in Galena, three cents apiece, two for five baskets of 8 for 20 cents. Baskets of peaches also, marked "Sgobel and Day, Winton, Cat" . R, W. R. Editorial Comment MR. Kl'HL OOKS VISITING Robert W. Ruhl. editor of the Med ford Mall Tribune, haa been spendin? part of the summer at his old home town of Rockford. III., and he does not think much of the changes that have taken place since lit was a boy. He and a childhood friend got to - gether at Rockford and after looking over the old scene the friend Is quot- ed as having philosophised as fol- lows: " One long procession of motor cars on a paved highway, tooting through a lane of Mamie shacks, fruit stands and cheap -John madhouses. No bare foot boys with fish poles, worms and flat-bottomed scows. Just flappers, sheiks, sports shoes and lipstick. And the old hotel. The Englishman, his wife and daughters are gone. Now It la aald to be owned by the Capone brothers. Coon waiters In white coats, dances every Saturday night, fried chicken from Chicago cold storage, gin and Scotch, Jara and hop.,r.sh gone, farmers gone, fun gone." We sympathlre with Mr. Ruhl. No person with a spark of sentiment can go back to the place where he was raised and find It thus changed without experiencing some sinking of the heart. Indeed it seems to u that etery person from the coast who goes back to the middle west for a visit returns to us with something of aad- taeaa and disillusion In his eye.

PREMIER ' REPAYS GIFT 10 PARTY BY MATCH KING Kreuger Is Disclosed As Po litical Opportunist With Handsome Contributions Where It Would Help By Elmer W. Peterson. STOCKHOLM. (A) The ghost of Ivar Kreuger, suicide match king. Is stalking through the political cam paign of Sweden as the country pre pares to elect a new second cham ber of the Riksdag, or national par liament. The role which the spectacular in ternational financier played in the politics of his home country is Just beginning to be understood. Spread His Girts. He Is being revealed as a political opportunist, seeking goodwill chere it would do him the most good. In vestigations of the financial wrek which he left, shows that he gave money to several Swedish parties and contributed also to political treasuries in other countries where he had In terests. But here In his homeland, the lib eral party, which for four years has held the balance of power, seems to have been recipient of the real po litical sympathies of Kreuger. A year ago he handed 50.000 crowns, then equivalent to 912.500. t. Carl Gustav Ekman, present prime minister and leader of the liberals. This was done while Kreuger still enjoyed public respect and confidence and there Is no question but that it was, politically, an ethical gift. Put Soft Pedal on Talk. Ekman has returned the money voluntarily to the Kreuger adminis trators, announcing that the former match king made the contribution on his personal Initiative and 'With out asking any favor. This action has been interpreted as a move to foroe other similarly benefited parties to come out Into the open. At any rate Ek man's frank tactics have rather minimized Kreu ger as a campaign issue, which transmitted news of Sweden to all parts of the world, and lnves- Pollticlans who, ordinarily, might have been Violent In their denun ciations, have been mentioning Kreu ger with considerable tact. There !s rather general agreement that the financier's true, political convictions were overshadowed by his desire for Un trammeled progress in his busi ness projects. Skilled In Publicity. In Stockholm he had many friends among newspapermen and the press did much to gild his name. He held a majority Interest In a press bureau tlgation of his affairs has shown that he was thoroughly alive to the value of modern publicity.

Oregon, director of the motion picture department of the Women's Christian Temperance union, told the 58th annual convention here today there is a "constant screen attack on the 18th amendment." "We feel that when we have work ed years for a law to wipe out a mon strous national evil," she said, "we have a right to expect that that law should not be misrepresented, ridi culed and undermined by .the recrea tional medium which reaches more of our children and youth and mora of our people than have ever been reached by a single recreational agency.
