Coming down the only stop was made' at San Jose ye editor yielding to a rather morbid desire to see where the two Hart kidnapers were lynched. Two bare patches of dirt mark the spot the virtuous civic authorities ordered the trees dug up, so as to keep them from being destroyed by' souvenir hunters. Now after getting what we assume to be the official attitude of San Jose toward this recent necktie party, we regard sacrific ing the trees as altogether foolish.- It would have been much better all around, to have placed a board fence around these two trees and charged ten cents ad mission. For according to the middle-aged gentleman on guard when we arrived and who, though he may have had no official right to do so, noting the Oregon license, proceeded at once to give us the Chamber of Commerce view of the tragic incident, this hanging party was one of the greatest things that ever hap pened to San Jose from a financial standpoint. We started the conversation by observing somewhat tritely "So this is where the lynching took place." "You mean HANGING" corrected the middle aged gentle man, in a tone in which authority and amiability were about evenly balanced. "There was no lynching in the usual sense of the word, it was a perfectly orderly and dignified civic uprising, a notice to the. world, that kidnapers better keep away from San Jose, California." "Somewhat as there was no earthquake in San Francisco" we ventured, "there was only a fire." The San Joscan paid no attention to this remark, but con tinued as if he had a speech prepared and intended to deliver it. "The people of this country, particularly the eastern people of wealth, are in constant fear of kidnapers. If they have chil dren, those children must be constantly guarded. Even the older members of the family are not safe, as recent incidents have shown. It is no exaggeration to say eastern people of means are in daily fear and terror. The police and the courts have utterly failed to cope with the situation. "San Jose yes, and , the state of California has served notice that there is one place in this country where people of wealth can live and be absolutely safe. We have talked of being out of the tornado belt, free from floods and thunder and light ning, free from ico and snow now'we can say to all the world come here and get out of the kidnaping belt. Wealthy people have already moved here. More will come." "That is very interesting" we observed. "Yes, sir. Of course there has been some criticism and a great deal of misunderstanding, but when the truth is known, certainly publio opinion will approve that sense of summary justice, which brushed away the Jaw's delay and the expense of ; litigation, and gave those two they deserved, and which all principles of civilization and jus tice demand." It was really very amusing and quite surprising. Not only what the man said, but his pontifical way of saying. We regret we didn't have time to go into the matter more thoroughly and really determine whether his being there when we arrived was merely a coincidence, or whether the city of San Jose really has a guide there to pass on the propaganda to tourists who may happen along. After we had left an excellent booster slogan for the San Jose Chamber of Commerce occurred to us to be emblazoned ' in gold letters on the front page of the next illustrated booklet: "GET PUT OF THE CYCLONE BELT AND COME INTO THE LYNCHING BELT 1" ONLY, as our middle aged "It WASN'T a lynching 1" -- - Comment on the Day's News By frank JENKINS ' iNtfOU must certslnly hare cauffht ' I this Item In the news of the day: , ' , ""'""I!

Physiologists es timate there Is from lght to nine pounds of blood In the hnrfn nf an ssaHilit- . f weighing ISO pounds. From 20 to 36 heart beats would pump out all. the blood In the body. It takes 23 seconds for the blood to make the com plete circuit through the arteries, capillaries, back through the veins to the right side of the heart, then through the lungs and back to the left side of the heart again. Blood In the arteries or In 'the left side of the heart ,1s brighter red than blood In the veins or In the right side of the heart. But when bleeding occurs who could be calm enough to deduce from the bright ness of the color whether It comes from atrery or vein? Anyway, It could do no good to make such a dis tinction. The emergency of bleeding from a wound calls for pressure upon t the wound Itself or. If It is in a ; limb, pressure or constriction around the limb above the wound. There Is only one sign that shows the bleeding Is from an artery, and tim is spurting which varies rhythmically with the heartbeat or pulse Blad ing from a vein la a steady flow The chemical reaction of the blood I la always alkaline, but only slightl ! alkaline. It Is still alkaline even in the state known as "acidosis," thouph 'In that condition the alkalinity is ( Idw, or as physicians say, the alkali i reserve Is diminished. This Is a talk j about blood and not about acidosis, so we'll leave the subject of acidosis with the remnrk that acidosis is a sign or one manifestation In many different diseases, but w never due to wrong diet alone. Almost anyone but a doctor or a physiologist knows what "Impure blood" means, or how simple It Is for a charlatan to get "Nature" to cure whatever you Imagine alls you, by eliminating the Impurities you so readily believe are clogging your caplllnrles. But further than to ad mit I like to keep my own blood nice and pure and tolerably rich, I haven't the slightest notion whar the near-doctors mean by "Impure blood." Or by their imposing term "toxic wastes" in your "system" Just which system the quacks do not say, probably the whole bloom ing system of systems or whichever you prefer.

These arteries branch again and again Into smaller arteries, and ultimately into the very smallest, called arterioles. From the arterioles the blood enters the capillaries, which are not distinct vessels, but Just spaces between the cells of the body tissues. The blood seeps through the capillary spaces, as water through a blotter. You can get an Idea ol the capillary circulation by pressing a finger nail and observing the wav ering of the line between the flush and the blanching if your nails ere not gaudily painted. ' .

(Associated Press Photo) DUNN TO DECIDE I AWs I POLITICAL MOVE &nd IN NEAR FUTURE ' Political Interest In Jackson county now centers In what Senator George Dunn of Ashland, Is going to do about running for re-election. Sen ator Dunn Is expected to make an announcement within a few days, whether or not he will seek a re turn to the post he has held for the past eight years. Friends the past week have been urging the solon to file. Victor Bursell of the Central Point district announced last week that he would seek the state senatorial toga. Bursell, for 12 years a county commissioner, has long had a desire to enter the legislative halls. He Is an active campaigner, and well known. William N. (Farmer Bill) Carle of the Applegate, Is also flirting around with the state senator berth, but has not made up his mind. Carle holds to the theory that all candidates should have opposition. Circuit Judge H. D. Norton Is ex pected to announce shortly for re election. He haa Indicated to friends that he would file "at the proper time." Attorney A. C. Hough of Grants Pass, has announced, "I will run." Hough was identified with the defense In several of the ballot theft trials, and was chief counsel for Earl H. Fehl, In the trial at Klamath Falls that resulted In his conviction of ballot theft In 12 minutes. The Jud icial race Is non-partisan. If only two file their names will not appear on the primary ballot, but will be voted upon at the - general. Both Hough and Norton are of the Demo cratic faith. A Judicial candidate un der Oregon law, must be a lawyer, and have passed the state bar exam ination.

About a down have been mentioned" as possibilities. Sheriff Walter Olmscheld, la expected to seek election. Sheriff Olmscheld had told friends, "there was no rush." Under a recent ruling of the ad ministration, no person employed by the CWA, CCC or on government re covery projects, can run for office, and retain his position.

Notes, The first reaction In the airmail crowd was that they could reorganize their companies and get their con tracts back from the government un der another name. Insiders believed Mr. Roosevelt would soon give up the idea of having the government run the airmail because of. the number of men it would throw out of private employment. Lawyers seem to believe William P. MacCracken has a good legal defense but bad public one. They say a law7er can do nearly anything under the blanket Immunity between an at torney and his client.
