The waters have now sub sided, however, and the denlmns look back and notwithstanding their great loaa are toroed to laugh at many of the ludicrous scenes that occurred. The funniest event occurred with Tom Baker. He delights in his fiddle and aa the weather waa bad and atormy waa sitting In hie house quietly enjoying himself and fiddling away when the water broke over and came rushing down past his house at a fearful rate. Tom looked out and beheld It and thought his time had como. He Jumped up, looked around and the water began to pour Into the house. Thle was too much for him, so he threw hi fiddle out the window, into the stream and fell on his knees and began to pray with more earnest nesa than was his usual custom. His prayera seemed to tU and the watera eoon receded and Tom waa once more happy but now mourns the loss ot his old Urn friend, the fiddle. (SO Yre. Ago Col.) J'VILLE WEATHER JACKSONVILLE. Jan. J.4.

Editorial Correspondence HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Jan. Medford papers that the eounty court has agreed on various important matter an audit of ment, a new disposal of marriage license fees, etc., etc Let the good work continue. The law does not provide, and the people do not want A ONE MAN county court. The court now has a representative from Medford, one from Ashland, and one from the north part of the county. This is proper geographical representation. A majority of two on the court should rule. But better yet, there should be a policy of give and take, a settlement of differences Inside the court, not OUTSIDE, and as far as possible, unanimity on all important questions of policy. The agreoment noted above, indicates that this rfan be done. Here is news a depression - cred by a correspondent of the the famous and exceedingly desert about 125 miles east from here. Not only are the hotels filled, but 1929 prices prevail and everybody is happy. We don't know which is the more remarkable, the fact that hotels oan charge 1929 prices and get them; or that there are still people about who can pay them. With Palm Springs, like Grants Pass, it's the CLIMATE. This Ruth Judd case is degenerating into a terrible mess. Just a year ago Mrs. Judd was convicted on a charge of murder, her only defense being insanity. Now as a witness in action against Jack Halloran charged with being an accessory in the murder, she rants and raves and claims she killed in self de fense. If she killed in self defense then Halloran is innocent because no crime waa committed. If she didn't, then Halloran is guilty, As Halloran is a man of wealth and standing trie acquittal of both parties appears possible, though not probable. But that such an outcome should be POSSIBLE only shows the need of radical reform in our entire system of criminal procedure. If the picture of Mrs. Judd in the Times is a fair representa tion of what a year in prison has done to her, then it looks dark for Ruth. For when the present writer saw her in the Phoenix oourt room a year sgo, she was quite -attractive looking not beautiful but appealing. This picture represents her as fat and soddon a mean look In her eye. Instead of spending her time in hysteria and accusations against her alleged accomplice, Mrs. Judd should have dioted, and been more careful with her lip stick 1 Still raining and all the natives are stepping high, wide, and handsome.

People who are downhearted and think the only answer for this country is to go Bolshevik, are advised to read two articles in the Sat. Eve, Post. One by Caret Garct, claiming that this doprossion is not as bad as previous ones, and better times than ever are not far ahead the other by Will Durant, the Liberal philosopher, who went to Russia in favor of the Soviet scheme and oame away, entirely disillusioned and convinced that com munism doesn't work! is inferior to capitalism not only eco nomically, but in the matter of personal liberty and general well being of the rank and file. People eager for information on the condition of the world, should read both articles care fully. " R. W. R. Communications A Hint to R. W. R, To the Editor: The glimpses ot the cosmos that Editor R.

A LAROE REPERTOIRE OP COUGHS An Infant or young child wilt couch moot ularmlngly (to mother or nura) from simple coryw, pclally In the early houri of the night.' Much of t h 1 a uaeleaa coughing may be prerented by placing the child prone, if you are eure you know what that meani, and without a pillow or with a very email pillow. We described In an earlier win ter view the ele phant cough that may be caueed by lrrnavion of Arnold's nerve, a branch of the great, Fneu mogaatrlc or lung-atomach nerve, that supplies sensation to the skin In the outer ear canal. Accumulation of hardened wax ha kept many a, pati ent coughing elephantly and doctor guessing lndefatlgably for months on end. Just to give you a general Idea of how much territory a doctor has for guessing about the cause of cough, let me mention a few of the poAslbllltles, as noted by Dr. Charles Lyman Greene In his textbook on Medical Diagnosis: "Adenoids,' enlarged tonsils. Impacted cerumen, granular pharyngitis, hypertrophy of the Ungual tonsil, enlarged turbin ates, chronic disease of the ac cessory sinuses, goiter, chronic heart disease, diseases of the liver, enlarged bronchial g lands, aneurysm, mediastinal growths, dorsal carles, occupation, habit, and Imitation, are some of the other potenttal or possible con ditions to be considered aside from affections or the brlnchl, lungs and pleurae. The experienced physician can rule out most of these possibilities on routine examination, but the layman can never tell from hla own sensa tions or from the character of the cough what may or may not be caus ing It. It Is remarkable that the cough produced by a deep-seated lung or pleural lesion often feels as though It were Just a slight throat tickling, and on the other hand a cough really due to trifling nose or throat irritation may feel and sound as though It cornea from away down deep In the chest. These are some of the things a doc-1 tor thinks about when he Is spend-' Ing a night working over a baby I poisoned by morphine In a harmless! little cough cure recommended to the j Ignorant parent by the kind gentle- j man who runs the neighborhood drug store. bloody episode. We read the Dally News, but of course the Tribune, too But then there Isn't much difference between them. Messrs. Banks and Ruhl are both constructed along hu man lines, even though they do wear golf p tints, although Bob doesn't try to sleep In his. As required, we live a long way back In the woods, so far. Indeed that the owls have necking parties with our chickens. As to the scripture quoting, we promise to lay off on that considerable of the Bible causes our conscience to prickle, too. One thing we want understood is that we must stick closely to the question, "Resolved that some of the readers of the Dally News have an overdose of politics." We do not wish' to be backed off In the corner of a co-operative creamery that Is, or should be, under construction. Fur thermore, we want It agreed that we may quit whenever we get ready. We have no desire to beat our opponent Into sensibility. So there you are "Parmer BUI." Shoot whenever you get ready. Tours very truly. BERT HARR. STATE RETARDED SALEM, Jan. 24 (AP Of 38 ap plications for permits to appropriate water for electric power, only five projects for a total of 400 horsepower have been licensed during the past year by the state hydro-electrlo com mission, a report to the state legisla ture today showed. The only two pro posals for creation of power districts. Tillamook and Hood River, have failed of consummation because of vote In sufficiency, It was reported. The report, the second annual one Issued since the creation of the com mission by the 1931 legislature, shows further that 15 applications for a total of 483.000 horse power are still pending In the commission. Pour ap plications for a total of 113.890 horse power have been rejected because of failure to comply with provisions of the act. Three large applications for power permits, totaling 336 000 horsepower, were withdrawn since entered. The move was voluntary upon the appli cant. One small application has been tentatively approved. The two projects for the creation of utility districts were disfavored be cause of voting results in both dis tricts. Two proceeding have de veloped In th Tillamook project, but both failed In Hood River, at In Tillamook, all sub -divisions of the proposed district dtd not return fa vorable votes as required by law, the report stated. Card of Thank. W wUh to express apperdatloa io our many friends for their kindness and sympathy extended to us during our recent bereavement. We also wish to especially thank Rev. W. J. Howell for his word of comfort. Mr. J. J. Ray and Pamlly. Brady. U. D. Plaurlsy and certain cases of pul monary tuberculosis are the only con ditions Z can think of, where It ts for the patient's benefit to suppress the cough. In all other conditions of which cough Is a symptom the use of opium, morphine, codeine, he roine, chloroform, paregoric, dionln and other narcotics la generally harmful and sometimes dangerous. Aside from the danger of opium or narcotic poisoning, these so-called cough sedatives lull the victim Into false sense of Improvement when per haps the Illness Is rapidly growing worse. I believe the early resort to one or another nostrum purporting to "cure" cough is 'the straw that converts many a mild bronchitis into a grave pneumonia. Am a rule a reasonable amount of coughing la good for what alts you, and if It comes to a question of quieting or suppressing the cough the method or means of doing this should be left entirely to your physician's judgment. QUESTION'S AND ANSWERS Protruding Ears. Baby three months old has pro truding ears. They seem very soft and they turn over at every move . . . (Mrs. R. M. Answer They'll toughen as he grows older and hears all the funny talk. Some mothers believe the wear ing of a bonnet at night corrects pro truding ears Sun Glasses. Which are best to wear when one has to face the glare of the sun smoked glasses, blue, green or amber goggles? Answer Greenish or amber tinted glass gives the best protection against the ultraviolet rays. Various special glasses used for goggles ate excellent. If you wear glasses ordinarily, it le better to have pair of plain tinted or smoked glasses to wear over them when you have to face the strong sunlight. Apology to Our Smoking Readers. A year ago you gave us an inter esting article on Thromboangltla Ob literans and you said excessive smok ing Is an Important contributing cause. Recently you gave another talk on the effects of tobacco on health nd mentioned numerous ail ments in causes but said nothing about thrombo-angltls obliterans. As a pipe smoker I am Interested. W. n. a. Answer I like to have readers In-! teres ted, but not scared. I did omit thrombo-angltls obliterans from the Hat of 111 effects of excessive use ofj tobacco. An oversight. Note that It, Is the excessive use of tobacco that does harm, not temperate smoking. (Copyright, John P. Dllle Co.) A SEAT O in the C ABINET. JAMES A, . FAR. LEY ' sMCMVC If James A.

From the hour when .his victory was conceded, It has been tacitly ac cepted on alt side that Mr. Roosevelt would turn to Farley to flu that portfolio. A newcomer In national politic this big. buoyant director of the Roosevelt nomination and election cn mpa I gns seems to have foil n d a Job of work to his liking as contact -man-ln-chlef throughout 48 states for Mr. Roosevelt. He has youth, a temperament that takes the tumult and scouting ci national political life easily, abundant energy and a liking for meeting folks of all sorts that atood him In good stead as state democratic chairman first, then as national chairman, both of which Jobs he still ltolds. And it was to Farley and Louis McH. Howe that Mr. Roosevelt promptly ascribed chief credit for his election. M LEOD BOY SEES 3 LEGGED DEER McLKOD. Jan.

Th filibuster was nothing but a political publicity show. Long got the publicity. There Is one thing he enjoys more than reading hi name In the papers. That Is making a speech to crowded galleries. This time he combined both pleasures. Some Republicans thought they would never laugh again after the last election. They nearly rolled in the aisles watching Long distract the Democratic leadership. From them the Democrat could get no co-operation until the situa tion was fully advertised to the country. .

This senator personally aided Demo cratic Leader Robinson by circulating the cloture petition against Long.

He went right on claiming the president-elect was for him. Friends of the president still in sist he Is eager to co-operate with the president-elect.

Professor Rexford Tugwell of Co lumbia an Import member of President-elect Roosevelt's advisory staff wrote a "Discourse on Depression" last April, which may be significant In that hi close relationship with Roosevelt began soon afterward. , Some of the points then stressed by Professor Tugwell were as follows: "Purchasing power In th hand of those who ultimately buy goods Is the one Indispensable factor. Lacking thl we lack everything. Possessing it we have everything we value . . . Practically this means extreme In come taxation and distribution by the government to consumers who will spend for goods, start the production processes again, and gradually restore their own earning power." A sound economic program would Include "The securing of funds to meet the expense (of organized fede ral relief) by drastic Income and In heritance taxes, avoiding sales taxes which only tend to raise prices and further restrict buying: the avoidance of budgetry deficit and monetary in flation; the taking over by the gov ernment of any necessary enterprlie which refuse to function when their profits are absorbed by taxation.
