UlMMI What Price, Democracy! rNID you ever look over the history of popular franchise t It is a most interesting study. The amount of blood and treasure expended through the centuries to gain the franchise the right most of us consider so fundamental and commonplace is simply appalling. Wars have been fought, countless lives have been sacrificed, fortunes have been spent, untold suffering hag been endured, to give the men and women of today, the right to vote the right to determine the character of the government under which they live. Under the circumstances it is rather strange, we have never established a popular franchise day. We celebrate Indepen dence Day, Decoration Day, Thanksgiving Day, but we have never set apart a day to commemorate the achievement, without which none of these days, would have been possible the secur ing of universal suffrage. TTTK believe the establishment of such a day would be de- cidedly worth while. If more people particularly young people, realized what their forefathers had sacrificed to give them the ballot a secret and an honest ballot they would perhaps be more conscious of their duty on election day be less indifferent to exercising a privilege, secured at such sacrifice, by those who have gone before them. Once destroy this privilege, once impair the secrecy and honesty of the ballot, and the achievement of centuries, is gone. Popular rule is over, democracy is dead. Q0 every election day is a test to whether this generation really appreciates what has been done for them, really deserves the power they have been given. For on election day that equality which forms the cor nerstone of democracy is literally attained. The man (or woman), entering the voting booth, is King. Old or young, rich or poor, prominent or obscure, he has equal power with every other man. No one is greater. The man the common man, is supreme. As that priceless privilege was only obtained by struggle and sacrifice, it can only be RETAINED, by fighting unceas ingly, against forces any forces, seeking to destroy it. Eter nal vigilance is the price of liberty, and eternal vigilance is also the price of democracy. Maintaining that privilege unsullied, sustaining tha power, which is democracy's birthright, unimpaired; certainly is the duty of every right thinking citizen in a Democracy. The Saloon Is Dead PRINTED in another column of this paper is a communica tion from Mrs. Alice Applegate Sargent, of Jacksonville, for whose opinion we have the highest respect. Mrs. Sargent opposes the repeal of the 18th Amendment, because she believes it will mean the return of the old time saloon with all its vice, squalor and degeneracy. We can't agree with Mrs. Sargent. We don't believe Prohi bition repeal will mean the return of the old time saloon. If we did we would oppose repeal quite as strongly as she does. r;ERE are few issues upon which American opinion is unanimous, but in our judgment the return of the old time saloon is one of them, at least opinion is as unanimous as can be humanly attained. And that opinion is unanimously AGAINST. No one wants the old time saloon. Practically no one will even tolerate the idea. The saloon as it was before repeal, is as dead as King Tut. On the other hand more and more people, don't want a con tinuation of Prohibition, as it has developed in this country the past ten or fifteen years. They don't want speakeasies; they don't want bootleggers and moonshiners; they don't want a gin-plastered and flaming youth; they don't want any con tinuation of the destructive and unholy alliance between illicit liquor and organized crime.- THEY have, therefore, come to favor prohibition repeal, and with President Roosevelt a "NEW DEAL" in the entire business of intoxicating liquor. Thoy are convinced liquor CAN'T be prohibited; they are equally convinced the old time saloon carl't be tolerated. They believe some other solution of the problem, CAN be realized, Which will eliminate the evils of both these systems, and by infringing on the personal liberty of no one, both reduce the burden of public. debt, and advance the cause of REAL TEMPERANCE. That is tho view of this paper. We believe it Is a view shared by more and more thinking people and we believe this feeling, rather than ajiy desire for strong drink, is the com pelling force behind the present repeal movement. Editorial Comment Not "Newspaper" Crime The lamentable affair of Medford, Ore., the culmination of wbloh was the oonvtctlon of a violent crusader of second degree murder, la some thing to be deplored. There la In tho circumstance a lesson that should be taken to heart. Llewellyn A. Banke, a business plunger and with a heart bursting with hatred for aU whom he could not subvert to his own trend of thot and domination, shot and kill ed an officer of tho law who wa at tempting to make legal service of a document ordering the murderer Into court, tn the defense there was not the slightest attempt to show that the act of shooting was other than Jus tifiable. It was but a circumstance in the career of a man who would rule or ruin or murder. Many wlU longest remember the circumstance as murder by an edi tor. As a matter of fact, there Is nothing in the atrocity of crime or connection . to require those of the newspaper profession to Apologise for. 1-t Is true the murderer had been publishing something of a newspaper, it Is better known that the publica tion was nothing else than a propa ganda sheet used for advancing the personal alms of the murderer. The conviction and ultimate punishment of Bsnks csn stand aa a necessity of law and order If government shsU continue. Men have no right to take to themselves power, assumed be cause of a brsln that reeka of Intol erance of U right, of o there. Man? of good oitizenship, a test as occasions arise where radicals seeking to tear something down that they cannot control faU short of murder but carry on with almost equal vlc lousness.

Women driving their own cars. Women rolling past to market on roller skates. Women wltb short crop ped hair. Women smoking as un concernedly a s men. Women In congress. .Women In the cabinet. Women In medi cine. Women, In law. Clergywo men. Why. I can re member - and I hope my readers can't tho tune when I got off some sour cracks In this column about the bold hussies who had their hair bobbed, back in the days when hair, skirts and faces were positively requir ed to be long. Figures do not lie, at least not near ly so much ss they did in the days when It was a bit brlsque for a wo man to ride a bicycle. Whatever fears we old fogy physicians may have had about the effects of all this change In the ways of womanhood, the facts have proved that the modern article is superior in every respect to the 19th century woman. -Notably more capa ble and efficient Is the woman of to day in child-bearing and child rear ing. Physically she Is a distinct Im provement upon the woman of the past generation. Driving a car Is precious little ex ercise. Having a car at her disposal even if she has enough spirit to drive It herself, Is an unfortunate thing for a healthy woman. It would be much better for her to run many of her errands or go shopping or pay calls afoot, for part of the exercise she must get If she wishes to retain her youth and beauty. Ot, It Is healthful, all right, to drive your car, that is, If you have no obsessions about air, sunshine, weather, drafts, etc. But after all, It Is not exercise, and you cannot ex pect to keep trim and fit If you evade your dally stint of work, play, exer cise, t Walking, which was formerly demo cratic and economic! recreation and exercise, has become too expensive for folks of ordinary means. It takes two hours a day to walk six miles in ordinary city traffic Six miles a day is the minimum essential to keep an ordinary Individual fairly fit. Riding a bicycle Is quite as valu able exercise as is dally walking, and you can get approximately the same benefit from an hour of riding that you get from two hours of walking. So If you can't afford to walk, get a bike and do the beet you can lor your metabolism. Arrange with a Communications Opposed to Dry Repeal To the Editor: ' The Bible tells us that "Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh." This la true, It Is also true that out of the abund ance of experience the mouth speak eth. My experience of the evils of drink has not been confined -to one coun ty nor to one state alone, but has been nation-wide. Near aU the army posts the saloon men piled their disgraceful traffic. These men made It their business to know when the paymaster was due to psy off the soldiers, then they were enticed Into the saloons and given drugged whiskey and rob bed. Nothing could be done for .these saloon keepers were licensed to sell liquor. Since prohibition became a law this has all been done away with. True, prohibition has not been as great a euccess as we had hoped, but I know from my own experience that It has not been a failure. We need a change, new and more drastlo laws, but we must not do away with prohibition. Many tell us that conditions are wore than they have ever been. I know posi tively that this-Is not true. People seem to think that the apeskeasles came in with prohibition. This also la not true, these we have had al ways with us but they were oper ated under another name. In the days of the open saloon they were known as "blind pigs." Here la an example: In Aleghaney company. Pennsylvania, there were 2000 blind pigs. Saloons were running wide open, but the men who operated the blind pigs were selling liquor without a license. This Is suthen- tlo Information think It over. Let us hope that the thinking pea- pie of Oregon will not vote for the repeal of the 18th amendment. Do away wltb prohibition and Just ss sure as the sun rises In the east. and sets tn the west we will have again the open saloon, an evil most truthfully portrayed by the follow ing poem: "THE SALOON BAR "A bar to heaven, a door to hell Whoever named It, named It well I A bar to manliness and wealth. A door to want and broken health. A bar to honor, pride and fame, A door to sin and grief and shame; A bar to hope, a bar to prayer, A door to darkness and despair. A bar to honored, useful life, A door to brawling, senseless strife; A bar to all that's true and brave. A door to every drunkard's gTave. A bar to Joy that home Imparts. A door to tears and aching hearts; A bar to heaven, a door to hell Whoever named It, named It well!" Anon. ALICE APPLEGATE 8AROENT. Jacksonville. June fl. IMS.

Woman with cancer of cervix, un der radium treatment. The doctor says the cancer has Just started. Pa tient's friend, a train. ' nurse, writes her that radium does not cure, and that there Is only one way and that Is to have the womb removed at once. Patient feels better since she had ra dium treatment. Doea the nurse know more than the doctor? (H. W.) Auswer If the patient has confi dence in her doctor there Is no reason why she should not put the question to him and have the oplnlan and ad vice of one or more other physicians upon the method of treatment best for the case. She must not remain in doubt. Fit for Maternity? I am about to be married. My old er sister had a baby a few years ago and soon afterward went Into tuber culosis. I have not been a bit well for the last four years. Do you sup pose that If I were to have a child I would go the same way? (Miss B. J. R.) Answer That Is not the question, The question now Is, are you fit to marry? Before you contract marriage you owe It as a duty to yourself, your Intended husband and your offspring In future, to undergo one or a series of careful examinations by your phys ician, to make sure you have no tu berculosis. When your doctor is satis fled you havent the disease, then you can marry, live happily and have your family. Such prolonged Intimate exposure as you had, if your sister lived with you, is the most likely way to catch tuberculosis. Only by careful examinations at intervals for several months can a physician make sure you haven't the early stage of the disease. To marry without that as surance would be tragic and crimin al. (Copyright 1033, John F. Dili Co.) I will be clearly drawn In the econ omy legislation between those who suffered disability from war service and those who did not. It la to be regretted that more editors do not speak out frankly upon legislation relating to ex-service men. Some editors are evidently afraid of the ex-service men's organizations. Others do not wish to appear un grateful to ex-service men. It Is the price we pay for having senti mentally made a hero ot every man In uniform, though he served but a few months In a training , imp on thla side. In my opinion the government owes nothing to men In this class. What Is the merit of serving your country If you bleed her for It? Suppose my house got on fire, and my family was rescued by neighbors. Would a neighbor who arrived too late to help, be Justified in bleeding me the rest of my life? In my opinion those who demand a bonus for able-bodied ex-service men are pretty poor patrlcte. We are approaching a situation as scan dalous as that which followed the Civil war, when a Justice of the supreme court of Michigan drew pay from Uncle Sam for total disabil ity: when the records of bounty Jumpers were cleared by private bills; when men who served but ninety days, and got no nearer the firing Une than five hundred mile, drew substantial pensions. The veterans' organizations need to clean houae. It is true they have done something for deserving vet erans. It is equally true that they have advanced the selfish demands of undeserving ex-service men. The veterans' organisations have proved to be organisations for pat riotic purposes (and so far to be commended), and organisations for profit. It Is a sad commentary upon our social system that a man who sky larked through a few months of training camp, and came out in Im proved physical condition, can get free hospitalization, whereas a man who has served many years without pay on a school bosrd, gets nothing in that line. The veterans' organisations fall Into the way of thinking that they alone represent the deserving veter ans. The deserving veterans need no special representatives. Hundreds of thousands of grateful and pat riotic Americans are their represen tatives and will see that they are Justly served. I hope that we shall see accomp lished In this administration legis lation that shall do Justice to aU legitimate service claims, but that shall be comprehensive and final. I hope that we shall see an end to continuing assaults upon the public treaaury In the Interests of ex-service men. THOMAS V. WILLIAMS. Ex-private 473nd Engineers Medford, June .

X have been cleaning out an old desk today, a rickety affair fit only for kindling wood. It was bought second hand with the first check 8, earned as a prac titioner of belles lettres. The yel lowing contents seemed mostly a bundle of hellish heart-aches. Four warped drawers were filled with stuff no one would buy. The nearest manuscript in O. O. Mclntyre the lot came to success was one that held this brief from an editor, by a clip: "We were tempted to buy this but It lacks something. Why not try again?" It's a matter of record, that six more tries were made but none made the grade. One I noticed began holty-toitlly: "The Hudson rose grey like a coil of blown smoke." I read on trying to catch some fugitive vein of talent. It was not there and I freely forgive the editors. There was a long poem, too, that had been colled Into a disappointed wad. It must have been written about the time Vachel Lindsay was beginning to be heard and expressed a bulimia for Lindsay's effects. Also a caustic cutting from Don Mar quis' column about another column ist that was torpedoed after one edition. One forlorn essay parodying the meandering Michael Arlen style that flared Into such sudden hoop-la was returned by Harpy's Bazaar without customary rejection slip, but there was an epistolary sting Just the same. The editor had written: "This is fair parody but poor essay." A consola tion was comparing It with another note among my lares and pe nates of three years ago which reads: "Your piece for Harper's Bazaar rings the bell. It's a pippin 1" One of the few Instances where comparison was not odious. In a cubby-hole were cached glor lous twinges In the shape of brief messages about nothing in particu lar from K. C. B., O.

Members from many lands more than 500 in all heard the message from the Directors, read by Mr. Charles E.
