If the county has a murder trial like the DeAutremont case the Interest does not run to county border lines and atop. The entire nation reads about It. Take our Klan monkeyshlnes of yeara ago. It hustled Mississippi and Alabama to excel them. Then there was the foot ball team. It was always popping out on the pront pages. And, In days gone by, the press of the land has printed a paragraph or two snout the glories and the grandeur of the flah and the pears. Lincoln J. Car ter, who wrote the thrilling melo dramas, and Edgar 'Wallace, who pen-' ned the mystery yams so well, never cooked up In their imaginations, anything so full of intrigue and eua eednesa aa any one of a dozen com monplace happenings. Most of the Nick Carter tales, In comparison, would only make lively reading for a Sunday school paper. In these parte, a political villain Is always pursuing a political hero with at cheese-knife, down a blind alley, and half the Intelligent voters rush to protect the hero, and the other half to give moral support to the villain. The result Is: Commonsense If kicked farther than BAbe Ruth can knock a baseball, and Truth If It has a chance takes. It and floes. Along would come a Lie. It was so bald, so bare-faced, and so bareleg ged, that the target would not take time or the trouble to deny It. 100 to 1 everybody believed it, and It was the gospel truth, because the liar had told it twice the aame way. And, there la an alibi for everything. It Is a poor alibi, indeed, that falls to have Its quota of ardent believers. Take the Rogue River fish bill. If Rogue river Is closed, It should be open and If It is open, It ahould be closed. When there Is nothing else to fight about, there Is alwaya the Rogue River fish bill. The only way to stop It Is to abolish Rogue river. Take propaganda and, we can take it. As a human group this county hae awallowed more propa ganda than any other 36,000 people on the face of the earth. Even If tt was Identified aa pure propaganda, It would be swallowed avidly, tit made no difference, as long as the propa ganda claimed to be pure. There has been mother love for propaganda. Lies and Liars. As one aged gentle man up a creek aald: "I know he'a a liar, and I know he'a telling a He but I'm tired of hearing nothing but the truth, and I want a change from the courthouse down." 0 0 This Is an overwhelming Repub lican county. It will go any way but Republican in a crucial election. We are a hospitable people. Half the auto tramps on the highways of the Psciflc coast are full of Jackaon county beans and anarchistic notions. But. aa a rule, we raise our hell In an orderly mannei, and keep It out of the Portland papers. ASTORIA, Ore..

ETVE members of the Good Government Congress have cOn- feBsed to breaking into the new court house, stealing the ballots and burning them. More are expected to confess. "Ton get just what you vote for!" A few days before election last November the following statement appeared in this column: "Earl Pehl Is absolutely unfitted by temperament, character and training for the position of county Judge. His election to that position would be nothing short of a public calamity. You get Just what you vote fori" Whereupon 5G97 people voted for hira according to the of ficial returns. Less than three months after his election, the public calamity predicted came to pass. Those 5697 people got just what they voted fori Judge Fehl Lover of Justice! PARI) FEHL, under indictment for complicity in this brazen - and bungling crime against all law abiding and orderly government in this community, is still county judge. He passionately denies his guilt. He claims his indictment is a "framo-up, a gigantic political plot to deprive him of his office." A little over four months ago he claimed the same thing about the effort of this newspaper end others to defeat him for county judge. That, too, was a gigantic political frame-up to deprive him of getting, an office, he now occupies and intends to retain. A political frame-up, machinations of the Medford gang, a gigantic and diabolical plot to defeat the will of the people, and retire to private life this man, who mysteriously disappear ing two hours before the murder of Gebrge Prcscott, appeared three days later, condemning this wanton slaying and declaring! "I have always stood for Justice and law enforcement through ' the orderly processes of a democratic form of government." So Judge Fehl has always stood for justice and law enforce- men through the orderly processes of a democratic government! How did Judge Fehl stand when ho proudly declared he was a member of the Good Govern ment congress, and endorsing the plot to overthrow the recall, declared : "I hope thla organization will go on and on untU It sweeps not only this county but every county In the state end every state In the union. Thus only we are going to have better gov ernment In aU our departments. I thank you most kindly." He thanked them most kindly ! Why shouldn't he J Things were going well then with him and the Good Government con gress. The next stop in swooping the county, preparatory to taking over Salem and marchjng onto Washington, D. C, was scheduled for the following Monday. As the county judge sat down amid tumultuous applause the president of the congress announced: "We adjourn to meet again at 8 p. m. at the oounty court house auditorium Monday evening of next week." At that meeting the seoret signal was given, the banner of "good government" was raised, the court-room vault was bro ken into, tho-bnllot boxes stolen and destroyed; the most devastating blow at the "orderly processes of a democratic form of government" ever rooorded in the history of this state, was struck. . Strange, very strange, that such a lover of justice, such a firm believer in the orderly processes of a democratic govern ment as Judge Fehl, never deplored that outrage, never con demned that crime. TPHOSE five members of the congress, who have confessed the crime, admitted their guilt, were all supporters and follow ers of Judge Fehl, they had cheered his speeches at their meet ings, they had endorsed and followed his leadership. If Judge Fehl's indictment is the result of a gigantic plot, then theso boys MUST HAVE BEEN VICTIMS ALSO. Why doesn't Judge Fehl rush to their defense 1 Why doesn't he name the plotters, present his evidence to protect his followers, before it is too late. Why does our county judge, so devoted to justice, desert his followers at such a critical time. Is he only interested in what happens to him, and indifferent to those who follow his example and accept his teachings! Why the Delay? leJAME the plotters, Judge Fehl. Present your evidence of ' this diabolical conspiracy before the grand jury. Now that we are having a house cleaning at last, let's have a thor ough one. Vou say you are innocent. All right You know more about that than anyone else. But you have been indiotod by a grand jury. You are still holding tha position of county judge. Only a few weeks ago before a mass meeting of your Good Government oongress you made the following statement i "I am not going to atk you to vote for me again. But I make you this proposition as Judge of your county any time I stand In the way of the orderly administration of the public trust I hold, I am willing to get down and out. I. don't have to be recalled." Your present refusal to "get down and out" can only mean you do not think you stsnd in tration of the publio trust you hold. That you are not involved, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY in these ballot thefts. All right again. Then we submit there is only one thing for yon to do, in justice to yourself this community. Demand an immediate trial. government under the law, you lieved in justice. A government under the law demands that you present your case before a jury of your peers. Justice demands, that you present the evidence of your innocence and the guilt of the plotters against you, in open court.

The natural reaction to either emotion la motion, that is fighting the antagonist or running away from the danger.

Can you suggest a better antiseptic gargol than (a nostrum) for smoker's throat? Miss M. L. Answer It is slltv to use an antl septio for such a condition. Might as well try to remedy that tired feeling with insect powder. The most effec tive treatment Is to refrain from smoking and from the company of smokers 'breathing the smoke -polluted air is nearly as irritating as smok'.ng. Perhaps the gargle singers and speakers use to prevent huskl ness would give some relief. It Is not "antiseptic," however.

(AP) A tour of Glasgow by the Prince of Wales today was marred by two unpleasant incidents. A man, allegedly a communist, who was addressing a group at a corner, refused to halt his speech while the prince was passing. Police took him off the platform and to a police sta tion. When the prince visited Saint Koch's Recreational club, a window was smashed by stones thrown as the royal car drove up. Police were un able to locate those responsible. There are largo numbers of com munists. In the Glasgow population. Unusual Incidents started at the very moment of the prince's arrival. Just before he emerged from his sleeping car, a man broke through the lines of police and station Of ficials to the door of the royal car. He told the station master, who stop ped him there, that he had an en gagement with the prince, but police men rushed forward and escorted him outside the station. The prince came here on a three day tour of unemployment centers In Scotland. This afternoon while he waa visit ing a home for the Jobless, com- j m unlet assembled In a side street ; nearby waving red flags and singing ; the Internationale.

Boycott of Jews Takes Form in Germany While Petty Baiting Continues BERLIN, March 39. (AP) Ger many "s boycott of Jews, although It does not begin officially until the morning of April 1, already has be gun to take form. This morning the Berlin city gov ernment ordered that from April I on all supplies for municipal propects and offices be purchased only from nationalist merchants. Even school attendance by Jewish children Is to be reduced. The newspaper Deutsche Allge melne Zeltung reported Chancellor Hitler as having said at today's cab inet meeting that measures against the "atrocity campaign" are necessary because popular indignation other wise might take undesirable forms. Tfte Situation la under control now and violence by individuals must be prevented under all circumstances, said the newspaper, quottlng Hitler but the Jewa must bear In mind that any Jewish campaign against Germany would react most sharply upon the Jews in Germany. Forty-eight Jewish shops, picketed by national socialist storm troopers, were quickly closed by their owners, and a number of other shops, run by non-Jews on money borrowed from Jews, also were picketed. Jewish professors were prevented from en tering classroom buildings at the un iversity of Westphalia. Hugo Slnzheimer, a member of the university faculty, and three Jewish attorneys were placed under "protect ive arrest.' Prof. Sinahelmer was a reporter for the war guilty commis sion, and is a member of the German peace aoclAty, The National Socialist party head quarters, which Issued Its appael for a general Jewish boycott yesterday, describes the campaign as in retal iation for erroneous reports of Jewish- persecution published abroad. Two Berlin newspapers not domin ated by the Nazi party warned the govremment of the possible effects. A prominent Jewish paper, envisaged a revival of the middle age ghettos or 'the Isolating of the Jews in .sep arate villages such as those of Gyp sies throughout Europe. The government's Immediate at tention was taken up by the strained relations In Its own ranks caused by the reported counter revolt move ment in Brunswick Involving the steel helmet (war veterans) organi zation. Only ISO men remained In custody there after the release last night of 1,200 who had been held prisoners 24 hours In the steel hel met headquarters. Those still In custody were de scribed as leftist leaders. T,he Nazi storm troops, who fought side by side with the steel helmeters to establish the Hitler regime and shared police duties with, them since, had accused the latter of enrolling more than 1, 000 former Relchsbanner (republican defense force) men to oust the Nazis. The order disbanding the steel hel meters in that state and removing tshem as auxiliary police will be re scinded Saturday, it was announced. Thla was decided after a confernce between Dlethich Klagges, Nazi min ister of Interior In Brunswick, and Franz Seldte, the national leader of the steel helmet and minister of la bor in the Hitler cabinet. Leaders of the steel helmet, which is a monarchist organization, depre cated reports that the Incident would have repercuslons nationally and tend to estrange nationalist members 1 of the Hitler cabinet who are closely connected with the group. It waa Just a "soldier's row" tihey said. The Jewish newspaper Vosslche Zeltung, commenting on the boycott, said If It "is carried out to a finish It would mean the economic ruin of hundreds of thousands of German Jews, Irrespective of age or sex, and the ejection of German Jewry from German communities." The release of the boycott an nouncement last night was seen as a victory of the left wing of the party, including Capt. Hermann Goering, minister without portfolio, and Hans Kerry, president of the Prussian diet, over the more moder ate wing of Chancellor Hitler and Dr. Wllhelm Prick, minister of inter- j lor. Twenty-four Jewlah shop windows were smashed overnight In Emden by persons who have not been traced. In Goettlngen virtually all Jewish shop windows were smashed. Aux iliary polce were guarding the prem ises today. At Glelwltz, Beuthen and Hlnden- burg. Jewish stores reopened today aa ant I-Jewish propaganda ceased after representative by the Biles tan cham ber of commerce, which pointed out the inexpediency of such a campaign. At Goerlltz, on the other hand, a crowd numbering 1.000 assembled be fore the court house shouting de mands for the removal of Jewish Judges and lawyers. Nazi storm troopers then occupied the building and took several Jews Into protective custody. At Wernlgerode storm troops closed SmmmKnlge SH New Low Delivery Rates F. E. SAMSON CO. SEED Phone 833. Jewish stores and arrested some own ers, who later were released. Nazi delegations at Eberawalde ap peared at all Jewish stores and de manded Immediate closing, as well aa dismissal of all employees. During the night show windows of all Jewish shops were smeared with, tar and glass cases in the town's two Jewish owned motion pltcure houses were smashed. Nazi headquarters ex pressed disapproval of these acts of vandalism. Storm troopers at Bad Prelenwolde stood before Jewish shops warning against buying In them. Only half of the usual number of tradesmen appeared at the annual Jahrmarket, since the jews remained away. On order of the storm troops, pick ets were withdrawn from Jewish shops In Schwedt after negotiations with tihe police. Meteorological Report March 29, 1933. Forecasts.

Before playing, he gave the slot where the nickel goes an experimental poke, and to his surprise found bis finger stuck. He pulled and Jerked, but the harder he yanked the more firmly the gadget held him. Restaurant employes by that time noticed him and began offering sug gestions, none of which seemed to work. The police were summoned but they, too, were balked. They finally hauled Lewis and slot machine to the university hospital, where a surgeon with a hack saw did the trick.
