Theodore Roosevelt, as a young man was its chief proponent, and was largely responsible for its adoption and growth throughout the coun try. It was then and is today, (the outstanding foe of ineffic iency, corruption and the spoils system in public life! - At the recent session of the Legislature, a measure was passed authorizing all towns in Oregon with a population over 5000 to place their fire departments under civil service. Taking advantage of this permission the voters of Medford at the state election, the last day of this month. Tho measure should pass. THERE is everything to be against. True, Medford has now one of the best fire de partments in the state. But under civil service it could be made even BETTER, The mere introduction of demerits against the Medford duction of 140 demerits would surance rates. That shows what thinks of civil service in fire But the best evidence civil should have in its fire department, is the SUPPORT OF FIRE C3IIEF ELLIOTT. He wants it because such a system would help him to raise the efficiency of his department, protect him from political pressure from whatever source, and put his en tire administration upon strictly a MERIT BASIS. That's what he wants. And that is what every honest, experienced and efficient fire chief wants. A fire department is no wire pulling. Civil service would If a man on the force. were political pressure could keep him IN. On the other hand, if a vacancy should occur, no political pressure, favoritism, or wire pulling, could keep the best qualified man OUT. THERE is some objection to putting the fire department under civil service because all departments of public ad ministration are not under civil arguing against having pure drinking water in this city be cause all other cities in the state haven't it. Putting the fire department under civil service is only a start. As time goes on and the city grows, civil service should be extended to all departments. . The fire departments of Portland, Salem, . Eugene and Klamath Falls are all under civil service. By adopting civil service Medford would merely of the most progressive and state. FINALLY the introduction of civil service in the local fire department would not cost the taxpayers a dime. Thj members oi the civil service commission, appointed by the council, would serve without pay. It would, in the last analysis, simply make Medford 's good fire department a bettor one. We repeat, the measure should pass. Martin s First Year ROUNDING out today his first year in the executive chair, Governor Charles H. Martin has given the people of Ore gon a new conception of the office of governor a new confi dence in the ability of a holdar of political office to bo a material factor in the economic development o the common wealth. Hewing true to the line of courageous, independent think ing he outlined during his campaign for election Governor Martin has to a remarkable degree adjourned politics during his tenure and has charted his course straight for the goal he set in announcing his candidacy. During his administration part isanship, as auch, has been conspicuous by its absence from vital affairs of state. The .awakening ot Oregon and its people to a realization of the potentialities of tho state and the stimulation of pro cesses and practices for the development of its resources has been, and continues to be the predominating feature of Gov ernor Martin's program. His vision extends far into tho future But his method of attacking such problems is direct, instnnlan eous and unrelenting. COURAGEOUS and defiant of coercion and lawlessness, he has reestablished a respect for law and order and con stituted authority by positive assertion of the powers of his office. Without sacrifice of leadership he has restored harmony, dignity and efficiency to tho operations of the board of control and has developed a much needed spirit of tolerant cooperation in tho state's entiro official family. His appointments to im portant posts hsvo for the most part been excellent and his defense of efficiency in subordinates of either political creed unflinching. Intolerant of short sighted criticism and reactionary con servatism and timidity, impatient with opposition and scornful of petty politics, Governor Martin has in one short turbulent year established himself as an intelligent, trustworthy, capable and courageous leader deserving of the support of the people of Oregon.

The Oslerlan picture of hardening of im arteries, rep resentative of the best medical time, was more or less traditional tho painted In the Interesting atvi fr which Sir William was famous. The Bisnerian conception of the nature of arteriosclerosis represented advance of medical knowledge in fch Am uHicr regaraea neredlty as a most Im portant cause, and assumed that persons who develop hardening of wjo ttneriea eany in lire inherited poor material In the arterial tissue, poor "vital rubber".

Three Comment on the Day s News By FRANK JENKINS BEND, In the heart of tba Paulina country the story of Chief Pau lina was told sketcblly A this col umn yesterday Is one of Oregon's newest and prettiest cities. It gets Its name from the great bend In the Deschutes river, which was known as Farewell Bend by the ox team pioneers; who regretted, one gathers, having to say farewell to the green meadowa that here He along river and were a pleasant change after the long dry Journey over the high desert. Almost Immediately upon leaving here, the pioneers who chose this route must attempt the crossing of the high and then trackless Cas cades, so it may be Imagined that farewell to these pleasant meadows was not eagerly aald. THE Bend country waa once a part A of vast Crook county, which now Is cut up Into Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson, the dismemberment having occurred some two decades ago when every town in Oregon not then county seat wanted to be one. In the case of Deschutes county It haa worked out well enough, but In the case of Jefferson not so good The people of Jefferson county, If they had It o do over again, would probably consider that the advantages of having a county all their own aren't worth the higher taxes. (This, of course, Is guesswork on the part of a rank outsider. You never can tell how people will feel about their own local governmental affairs). CULVER and Madras were contend ers for the honor of being the seat of Jefferson county; and the contention must have been warm at times, for they still tell tales of county buildings being put on skids in the dead of night and dragged back and forth from one to the other. Back In the beginnings, the people of Jefferson county never knew when they went to bed at night where the county seat would be the next morn ing, which must have been TOUGH. It would be annoying to go to town to pay your taxes and find upon ar riving that over night the court house had got up and walked out on you. T"HE country immediately around 1 Madras is a fairly good example of what not todo with land. In the days of the big war wheat market, they plowed up a lot of those low rolling hills and, thanks to cen turies of accumulated surface ferltl lty, plus some lucky spring rains, they raised some good-sized wheat crops It looked good. But the surface fertility waa soon sapped, and the spring rains petered out. Now, when the wind blows, the soil imitates the curt house of those hectic early days and gets up and moves from place to place. A beneficent government is buying up a lot of It and moving the settlers somewhere else. 4 IT'S nice to have a kind govern 1 ment that takes our mistake off our hands, but one wonders, at times, what the ultimate effect on us will be.

In this article Dep uty District Attorney Nellscn, Jus tice of Peace W. R. Coleman ana Mayor George W. Porter are listed aa being members of Tcwnsend clubs and' ardent supporters of the same. I would suggest therefore that all voters consult the "Voters Pamph let" for the special election to be held January 81, and that . tney read carefully the articles "for and against" the passage of a state sales tax, paying particular tten tlon to the names signed to the argument in favor of the sales tax. The above names appear promi nently among the Medford names of men who endorse a state sales tax. It being my understanding that the only tax endorsed by Townsend clubs and Townsend followers is a "national transaction tax " I, there fore, should like to have these gen tlemen explain to the community, via the columns of all local news papers, their true position as re gards the Townsend plan and their public stand on tho sales tax. as published tn the voters' pamphlet, issued by the secretary of state.
