If You Haven 't Voted Vote! THE polls will be open until eight o'clock tonight. The polling placet are : For the first ward, the Public Market on South Riverside; for the second ward, the court house; for the third ward, Pichtner's garage; and for the fourth ward, the city hall, on the corner of Fifth and North Central If you haven't already voted, do so. The first duty of good citizenship on each and every election day, is to vote. Those who fail to vote are slackers in the unending struggle for better government. For the cornerstone of all good government, is majority rule, and each individual failing to exercise the fran chise, contributes to the dictatorship of a minority. What s the Big Idea! WE can't understand why County Judge Fehl 'should so frequently state that he is not a member of the Good Government congress. In his opening address to the jury in Klamath Falls, Tom Enright, Mr. Fehl's attorney, again stated that his client is not a member of that organization and never has been. Why this insistence? The Good Government congress has loyally supported Judge Fehl, and Judge Fehl has loyally sup ported the organization. What practical difference does it make then, whether Judge Fehl is technically a member of that organization, now, or ISN'T! It is certainly nothing HE should be ashamed of, or, as far as we can see, nothing that were he at one time a member, he should now seek to repudiate. IT is even more peculiar because at the meeting of the Good Government congress at the Medford Armory, February 18th last, less than six months ago Judge Fehl explicitly stat ed he WAS a member, and seemed to take considerable pride in that fact. We quote from the official stenographic report of that meet ing, the following extract from Judge Fehl's speech : "I am a member of this organisation, I Joined It the day after I was here before and talked to you. And why? Because I thought It wsa an organisation In. the Interest and up building of better government here not only In Jackson county ' but In th state of Oregon, and I hope this organisation will go on and on, until It sweeps every county In this state, and every state in the union. Thus only are you going to have better government In aU your departments. "I thank you most kindly." (Applause.) That's plain enough, isn't it f As far as, we are aware Judge Fehl has never denied that statement In addition to the stenographs report, hundreds of people heard him make that public avowal of membership, at that time, and no doubt believed it. What are they to think now when Judge Fehl, personally and through his attorney, denies the truth of that same state ment. If he told the truth then he CAN'T be telling it now. If he is telling the truth NOW, he oouldn't have told it THEN. If Judge Fehl was not a member of the congress on February 18th why did he say he WASt If he WAS a member then and has since resigned, why doesn't he state the fact, so that his exact position oan be understood. We frankly admit the judge's attitude toward the Good Government congress, and his affiliation with it, is entirely be yond our comprehension. Who Is Anti 1 1 'Hii newspaper business is full of surprises. There is always A something new, under the sun. It is this ceaseless variety, that no doubt makes the profession so fascinating. After having been panned in private for several months, by certain G. 0. P. stalwarts for being too NICE to President Roosevelt, (in fact one asked why we didn't replace "Inde pendent" with "Democratic" at our masthead) we were taken to task yesterday by a Roosevelt Republican for not being nice ENOUGH. In fact we were accused of harping on the fact the Roosevelt policies will fail, and secretly wishing them to fail, this atti tude being due entirely to our ingrained political partisanship ! e IT is really very amusing. And perhaps, this cross-fire is in . reality a compliment. For it is a truism in sporting circles, that when an umpire is panned by both sides, it is prima facie evidence that he is a pretty good one. Politically speaking the Mail good umpire an observer of the participant in or a partisan of it. the inevitble extremes, because the road is where the truth lies.' But, of course, such a role has it pleases the radicals on neither side. And the radicals, not the moderates, form the vocal portion of public opinion. However this latest brickbat, so entirely misrepresents the real attitude of this paper toward the Roosevelt administration, that some elucidating comment is called for. We not only DON'T want the Roosevelt administration to fail, but we feel it MUST succeed, or nothing can prevent a complete national disaster. This doesn't mean we necessarily believe Roosevelt the greatest president since Lincoln, or agree that all his policies are above criticism ; but v-t DO BELIEVE he IS the president of this county, that we actually faoe a war time condition of critical seriousness; and that he deserves what he is getting, the loyal and enthusiastic support of the Ameri can people, regardless of all petty and political considerations. "PHE remarks in this column which have probably been inter A preted as anti-Roosevelt, have not been anti-Roosevelt at all. They have comprised an effort to clearly analyze the situa tion, to show its realities, so that the people may be better prepared for the supreme test that is sure to come. " This test will be, briefly, when both the political honeymoon and the acute public fear complex have pasoed, and the people realize more clearly that the Now Deal is something more than a mere campaign phrase, and actually representa the formation of a new party, based upon FUNDAMENTAL and far-reaching changes in our social and industrial set-up. Then the shoe will begin to pinch. And some of those yell ing loudest for F. R. will be yelling against him, because they will be touched in the tendcrest part of the American anatomy, the poeketbook. This ultimate result is inevitable and calling attention to it - Roosevelt? Tribune DOES aspire to be a political scene, rather than a We prefer a "mean" between in our judgment, the middle of its unavoidable penalties, for now, instead of being a disservice to the administration, should prove a genuine service later on. ODR if the people understand this they will be better prepared to absorb the shock when it comes. For it IS coming, make no mistake about that. Then some of the birds shrieking loudest for Roosevelt now, will be the first to run for the op posing camp. And others fooled neither by the glamour of the honeymoon, nor the synthetic patriotism of the fear complex, will be stick ing by the president, because they actually believe in the fundamental principles of his new deal'l : ' .

Probably the best way to secure such confidence is by carrying out a complete examination and a routine study of the function al, and organic atate of the pat ient before haz arding an opin ion about the diagnosis or oflering sny advice about treatment, ' Of course tftls takes time and costs money, knd these "nervous" patients are reluc tant to pay an "ordinary" doctor for such service, so a good many of them- gravitate sooner or later to the shop of some "specialist" whose reputation Is built on Just such cut and dried machine tests of all clients, and the occasional light some lab re. tory test happens to throw on the obscure cause of the Illness. Early In my ssd career In practice a rather notorloua neurotic gave me a whirl. Th patient had tried aU Vie other doctors in the commun ity, and bis friends warned me in advance, so I wsa ready tor him. Well, I strung the poor fellow along In the best manner of the time and piled him with the very latest and most marveUous remedies, but in due course he entered a sanitarium where electrlo and hydrotherapeutlc and dletetlo and rest cures were given, and eventually the patient came home to die. I persusded the family to have a necropsy or "au topsy" as we then called It. This disclosed gallstone and Inflammation of tho gallbladder. From that mo ment 1 ceased calling patient "neu rotic." In a certain number of "nervous" patients psychoanalysis discloses the obscure source of the fear. But be fore any attempt at psychoanalysis Is made and it should bo under taken only by the physician. It Is Important to make certain about the diagnosis. Obviously It would be tutu to employ psychoanalysis If the patient happened to be suf fering from gallstones or from dia betes or from Incipient tuberculoels. Her It Is fitting to warn those who consider themselves "nervous" or victims of "nerve exhaustion" or "neurasthenia" or "nervous break down" that the latter day psycholo gists snd "experts" who profess to tesch you how to "control" your nerves or how to dominate your en vironment or how to gain your goal In war, love, business or social life, are an th bunk. After all you can't hoist yourself by lifting on your own bootstraps. As a rule when a doctor calls a patient a "neurotic" or a "hypochon driac" be means he thinks nothing alls the patient really; that the symptoms are Just Imaginary. Once In a while this Is quite true. But In most Instances it Is not. The doctor resorts to these epithets to cover his Ignorance. He hss failed to find out what Is wrong with the patient. Or If the symptoms are Imaginary then it la the doctor's business to determine why In thun der th patient trumpa uo such complaints, and having gotten at the secret or obscure cause of such conduct, then to set about the edu of a "nervous Tsry fr---r.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Dog Bit Kindly advise treatment for per son bitten by dog. (R. R. H.) Answer All members of our household have been - bitten many times, by our dogs or the other dogs, A , touch or swabbing wltA lodln ha always been sufficient treat ment. Should there be any anxiety about rabies, have the dog confin ed under observation of a veterin ary two weeks. If in that time the dog shows no sign of the disease, forget It. If the animal is killed, send the head at once to th lab oratory designated by the local health authorities. ' If the patholo gist reports that the animal had rabies, then your physician can give the Pasteur vaccine at home. I am still an agnostic In regard to the occurrence of rabies In man. How ever, If I were bitten by a dog, a veterinary believed to be rabid or if the animals' brain were found ' to contain the "Negri bodies," I'd want to have the Pasteur treatment. But I am sure most of the scares about rabies are groundless no matter whether health authorities share In the hysteria or not. Good Old lodln I am six months 'pregnant. About a month sgo I lost my head and swallowed some lodln. My husband made me drink a quart of milk, which served as an emetic. Since then I've been worried, wondering If I could have harmed the baby. I am ashamed to ask my doctor. (Mrs. ). " Answer It Is quite unlikely. That's another good thing about common tincture of lodln (Iodine to old-faahloned folk). Hysterical persons can swallow some and make a great to-do. but It seldom If ever has a lethal effect. Your husband showed excellent Judgment In giv ing you a large quantity of milk. There Is no better first aid treat ment.
