Good News for 5. Oregon
'I'HJS lifting of the gold embargo by President Roosevelt
should stimulate the mining industry throughout Southern
Oregon. Miners will now be. free to export refined gold at the
market price of about $30 an ounce in place of the mint price
of approximately $20.
This is a boost in the selling price of 50 percent, which
should increase the profits of the high grade mines, and eneour-
ago the development of the lower grade properties .
In Southern Oregon where placer and dredge mining prevail,
this action justifies particular enthusiasm, for it opens the way
for a prosperous industry, throughout the fall and winter.
More gold is being shipped out of Southern Oregon now than
most people realize. This lifting of the embargo, will increase
the amount and greatly step up the profits.
Next year the state mining congress will meet in Medford.
When that time comes around, Southern Oregon should be able
to show the delegates, something in mining activity, decidedly
worth their visit.

Golfers, Attention!
THE Southern Oregon golf championship opens tomorrow.
This started as a smaller affair, but has become an annual
sporting event of considerable state Importance.
Golf stars from all points in southern Oregon and northern
California will be here for the qualifying round, gecause of
the large field, there will be a number of flights for both men
and women, therefore a chance of "doing something" for plain
dubs, as well as par shooters. , ".
All local golfers should enter the tournament not because
all can win prizes but because the more contestants the better
for all concerned. It's not too late. Any able bodied person,
with two arms, two legs, and a bag of clubs can qualify tomor
row, by paying the regular entrance fee. .;
Those who don't play can also do their bit, and boost a good
thing along by watching the matches, particularly during the
finals and semi finals. They will see some good golf, and get
some needed exercise and fresh air. .
This is really a community affair. Everyone should be
interested in making it each year a greater success than the
year preceding. .

Why Isn't Something Done!
, T TEE meeting of the American Bar association in Orand
'Eapids, Michigan yesterday, the president, Charles E.
Martin, said something, to-wit:
- "Candor compels " the idmlaslon that America la a crime
breeding and crime protecting nation. . . . the publlo prosecutor
Is handicapped by the burdensome tssk Imposed by the assump
tion of the Innocence of the accused. It safeguarding law
abiding citizens were given the same attention that has been
bestowed upon safeguarding the lawless element from conviction'
, , , there would be a different aspect In the realm of criminal
procedure." , ..
No doubt of it! The Mail Tribune has frequently pointed
out, during the past few months, the crying need for reform in
our methods of criminal procedure.
The present procedure gives every advantage to the crim
inal. Not only is his innocence assumed; when all circum
stances, direct and indirect, point to his guilt; but he is given
the right of appeal, and the advantage of every legal technical
ity; whereas the state is given NEITHER.
We yell against criminals. and' the crime wave, and yet We
as a people, sanction a system, that does everything to protect
the former and increase the latter. '
ee
AS President Martin says, "if safeguarding the law abiding
citizens were given the same attention that has been be
stowed upon safeguarding the lawless element from conviction,
thore would be a different aspect in the realm of criminal pro
cedure." There certainly WOULD be I But might ' we inquire what
is the president of the American Bar association, and the mem
bers of that organization going to do about it t '
We fear, nothing. A few resolutions may be passed, a few
speeches made but when it comes down to actual, far-reaching
"brass tack" reform, we doubt if any more is accomplished at
this convention, than at any of the others. ''
v The plain and disagroeable truth is, that while leaders of
the bar believe as President Martin bolieves, every, serious at
tempt at reform is eventually blocked, NOT by public opinion,
but by the lawyers.
117HY should CITIZENS that love truth and' justice and
" honor, sit idly by as LAWYERS, and let their profession
be made a "hissing and a byword, the law a oloak for thieves I"
Answer that and you can answer why, as the president of
the bar association says, "America is a crime breeding and
orime protecting nation" and yet the association he has the
honor to head, year, in year out, really does nothing EFFEC
TIVE about it.
IF THE national and state bar associations of this country
would take the field, attack these legal abuses that encour
age crime, as they SHOULD be attacked, American jurispru
dence could be cut as clean of this malignant growth, as a sur
geon could cut a tumor ridden body.
And tho job could be done in a marvellously short time.
But while the leaders of the bar associations talk a lot about
it, they do and have done to data nothing absolutely noth
ing. Why, we don't know. But we have a suspicion, that it is
because the legal profession AS A WHOLE, wants nothing done
about it I
