IN SELF DEFENSE NOT PRAISE By th printed end the spoken word, there oome the disturbing In telligence, from upstate, that eouth rn Oregon In general, and Jackaon county In partloular, la a region of ranegadee, and violent men of dark Crimea, where there are blotohe on the tun, and blood on the moon. True, some of the felonious deede hire been aordld and traglo, but up ttate baa bad lta bootlegger trusted In gunnysacks floating tn the Wlllam tte, tong wars, and In the happy prosperoua yeara, Eastern Oregon sheepmen oame to Portland to pay 18 for a massage and a share in a barbershop, off the beaten path, and way from the polios. Then hu been opium smoking in shady dwellings, and alt the Crimea that ours, Of (ho eivia oapsra and tantrums, the leaat said the better. Upstate, with motherly Interest, thinks this area has black-eye. That is not the half ot It, and about half a carcase away, from where the Injury la moat needed.. , A a matter of fact, this 1 a land with the soul of a poet, sadly twisted by the hate of a paranoiac now, in a mood to go where he belong, If he can be the warden. From thla ple thora ot lying propaganda has been spawned a mess ot brat Bolaheklkls and older heads with strange del ni tons of their own mentality, and f chronic disposition to raise hell, If It can be made to appear religious and patriotic Upstate should not Imagine this rea as an abiding place of half-baked Al Capones, lost Russian Nihilists, nd aaeorted renegades. They should remember It, when they knew It beat, It they hare known It at all. Perhaps they can recall southern Oregon In the springtime, when the peara are In blossom, and the air Is tengy with the scent of creosote, from a frosty morning smudging in April. Perhaps they hare come thla way way in mid-August, when the wood peckers are yelling on the Applegate, and the dogwood trees are blooming., and, It you run around night in an auto, you can see the flickering lights of a half dozen, towns, and youth from a California oollege. trummlng a ukelele to the stars, ' Mayhap they can remember when they were In the part aome time, and ate fried chicken, that was Chi nese pheasant, and beef that was ven ison, and- moonshine, that smacked a well as medlotnal whiskey, and maybe. It was, the host being a man given to hoarding auch treasurera for the whistle ot his guests, They should remember when they were here in the tall, and the leaves were turning gold, and the nights were velvet, and the moon was com ing over the Slsklyous. And, maybe they have come lit tle later, and traveled up to Prospect, when the anowflakee were playing In trie Jackplnee. and It was hogkllllng time along the upper Rogue, and peo ple nibbled at hot pigtail, yanking from the red hot lard pot. If now. they speak harshly, they should remembor the flih. and the Boo pears, bestowed upon them, when they were running for some thing, and lost through no fault of county, that cause them pain now. They might recollect the bora who pent It when New York was eating pears, and the football team of the h.'Kh school, that made the hair stick out on the metropolitan neck, from the thrill ot athletic youth, going great guns. They might recall that southern Oregon has produced come weird and wonderful politicians, who always need recalling, but never are. Upstate oan remember, It ahe will, that southern Oregon first knew, and was first loved, by aome of the com monwealth most brilliant and pic- tureeque figures, for Instance the "Bag of Harney," and the Arret Singer of the Oregonlan, and, some nf the halfbacks have been nothing to anerz at. The upstate need not cry for us. though the tear are appreciated, and do not think as strange people. One of thsse days, we will resume fighting among ourselves, without the aid of transient agltatora, and there will be no more headlines, and you will know nothing about it, it used to be that way. Legal and Court Reform i rB delays of the law are proverbial. Lawyers and judges take their professions seriously, but if business men daw dled and talked and quibbled and dodged and evaded as do lawyers and attaches of courts, they would never accomplish anything of worth or importance. It seems to the layman that no case is ever ready for trial, no convicted man ever ready for punishment. . . , There It never such a thing as a DIRECT approach to any question, if an intricate winding way, can be found or created. In the endless palaver the substance is lost in red tape and technical ities; reason is subverted by quibbles, ... It la extraordinary that a system hoary with age, should not be supplanted by some method of GETTING AT FACTS DIRECTLY, and passed on by men who understand the controversies they seek to solve. Every strongly contested case is replete with long arguments, interminable interruptions and appalling waste. 'When it comes to criminal courts, the process is still more archnio. . . . The methods of criminal courts are hundreds of years old, and their conceptions a thousand years older than that. They were born of a time when . . . every human act was right or wrong, when an animal, a stone, or a block of wood that hurt someone was accused and at least morally condemned. . . . "We now know something of human behaviour, but the courts still take little account of suoh causes, and administer the law under the theories of a thousand years ago, e e o 'T'HE above may sound familiar to our readers and prepare them for another appeal for the reform of criminal pro cedure We have often urged recently that our courts be re formed so their purpose may be to arrive at the FACTS, determine the truth instead of being chiefly concerned with obeying various precedents and conforming to a mass of techni calities and red tape. However the remarks above are NOT our own. They are quoted VERBATIM from "The Story of My Life," by Clarence Darrow, who after practicing law over 50 years decided to quit, because like most lawyers who "dare to think about their pro fession" he had come to "view it with doubt and distrust." If Anyone in this country knows about law, particularly criminal law Clarenoe Darrow does. WITH many of his views we do not agree. We regard it a rjitv hn line so offen rlevAte.A hi itoinHnnst talent. to the defense of crinfinals, who to our mind, didn't deserve it. But we have never questioned his ability, his sincerity, or his honesty, and no right thinking person can doubt his lassion for the "underdog," his devotion for a square deal to the poor, the dispossessed and the friendless. But when man of his standing and experience with crime and courts, deplores the law's delay, urges a procedure that will be concerned with getting at the facts, regardless of quibbles and evasions, there certainly must be something to it. We can think of no one better fitted to lead such a crusade than Mr. Darrow. But he is old and tired, and probably could never be persuaded. As he writes at the close of the chapter from which the above extract is taken i ' "I did not want longer to fight In a court house all day and contrive far Into the night ... 80 I determined to close my office door and call it my day's work. Or my life work. . , , I was 72 years old and It wu high time that I should begin to troll peacefully and pleasantly toward the end of the trail, which at best, must be but a little way beyond." If some younger man In the legal profession, with equal ability, and a similar attitude toward our archaic form of pro cedure, should take up the cudgels of reform, where he hst laid them down, he would not only would perform a patriotic public service, for which future generations would be ever grateful. As has been previously stated in this column, we believe it would be far better for all concerned, to have the reform come from WITHIN the legal profession, rather than from WITIt OUT! A New Racket "T'HE increase in kidnapping it alarming. In the last five months there have been seven major kidnapping oases, the ransoms demanded totalling $650,000. Since this list was pub lished two more have been reported. This is the latest under" world racket. In no department of crime would Immediate government aid and prosecution be more valuable. Kidnapping is a special department of criminal art, involving an intricate technique, ond fow local polios departmenta are capable of coping with it. If this country had a secret service and police department, like England's famous Scotland Yard, always on the track of crime, and with a spocial kidnapping detail we venture to say, the leaders of the kidnapping racket in this country would be behind the bars within 30 days. A S it is kidnapping promises to Increase instead of decrease. And the more ransoms that are paid the more victims returned safely as a result, the more popular the racket will be. Every ransom paid, encourages and stimulates the crime, and yet who can blame families with money, for paying all they can, to prevent the death and perhaps torture of their loved ones. It is this deep seated human feeling, love of children and love of family which organiied crime it exploiting. Making kidnapping a capital offense will not help. Organized crime is a business. At long at kidnapping pays high profits it will continue. Making death the punishment, will only increase the homicide rate make the human desire to pay the price and ask no questions stronger. rT,IIE ouly way to stop kidnapping, is to take the profit out of it. The only way to do that, is to put the power and prestige of the government, with its superior facilities for pur suit and detection, behind the war against kidnappers in fact against all oraganized crime. We believe if the publio feeling against crime is organized and made articulate, President Roosevelt will do something in this direction, just as soon as his counti-y on its financial feet, is ANOSRSON (UP) The Ion ot It hind leg doesn't stop a log belong ing to Fred Knerr from chasing rab bit.

Hag gle, denizens of the town called mem ber of the next higher caste hay seeds, hick or rubes. Sven now, In spite of good roidi, telephone, radio, sutomo blls, bicycle and talkies, stigma clings te the name of farmer In the popular mind, and this has something to do with the desire of many young country people to move to town and exchange relative freedom for a menial exist ence In Industrial slavery. A college professor appraised the value of this column In popular health education. He aubmltted a number of article selected at ran dom to Individuate of various classes and then examined them to deter mine what they had understood of the teachings In the article. He found that some of the articles were "over the bead" of these readers. The pro fessor's analysis may have been cor rect for denizens of the town. They are so desperately busy trying to bat tle the great industrial machine that they have iielther the time nor the Inclination to learn more than they already know. My own ImDresslon gained from thousands of letters from city and country readers ! that the professor' assay may be correct for city people, but Is not so for country people. The rural I. Q.

The great majority ot people In this county opvicee the crime of which Judge Fehl Is accused of participating tn. but of which he la not convicted nor guilty until connoted. . We feel sure that, until the evidence does convict or acquit him, there Is no desire to Judge htm unfairly. The Dally Tidings hu apoken plainly of Judre Fehl u man, u a newspaper writer, ai an official and we have not minced worda In our declarations of criticism of him In theee rapacities, but we have never uid that he wu guilty of the charge agalnet him. for, we, of course, are not a tribunal with that autbertty or Derogative. That Is the business of Jury and to that Jury this su thnrtly must b left. Th average cittern holds this same v'ewpolnt willing to give him every opportunity to fight for hi right- and we do not think that Judge Fehl need tear the verdict of a Jury of 12 Jackson county eltl rens sny more than he should a Jury of 11 citlrens of sny other county.
