TIIK llli:ilVIX AS ALWAYS
(EDITORIAL)
In this Issue we print a letter from W. S. Warden, who
was county judge of Klamath county at the beginning of
the courthouse (icht. It was he who. as representative of
..-'. ' .. :'
me Klamath Development company, made the offer of
the site that has caused all the trouble. He was elected
on that issue. Those who recall that campaign will tell
villi imiit (vii- wnmnn wnnm nnvor navo Minn uirnmir ina
help given by The Herald. We have never regretted that
help. Under the same circumstances today, with all of
the experience gained during the past ten years at our
disposal, we would do the same thing again. We believe
we were right then. Now we know it During all of the
years that have intervened the cordial relations that
sprung up by reason of that campaign still maintain and
they are prized as highly today as they have eVer been.
But we cannot join Judge Worden on the journey he now
embarks upon, because we believe he is as wrong in his
conclusions today as he was right ten years ago.
Judge Worden refers in his letter to the "newcomer."
He anneals to him (o "stav with the Hot Snrines court
house." Why should he? What is the Hot Springs court
house, or the Main street courthouse, or any other court
house to him Is he to dip in tyid hem either side to carry
on their feud? . Is he going to permit himself to be used as
a siop-gap 10 nan me onwaru progress 01 me city i is ne
going to permit himself to be made a tool of one faction
or the other to help along a fight that has been in progress
for thirty years? We don't think so.
Judge Worden knows and we 'all know that this fight
has been in progress ever since Klamath Falls was two
blocks long. It was in progress when the courthouse was
located on the Main street site, the contention being that
it was too far out of town. When Houston built his opera
house and dance hall, those living at the bridge built one
there three blocks away. But they were spending their
own money then. Now they are spending our money, and
The Herald, in behalf of the innocent victims, believes
the time has come to stop it
If the Main street courthouse had not been built, we
u-onlrl ho in f nvor of comDletine the Hot Springs building.
Thnt in whprc tho neonle have wanted it and that is where
Judge Bunnell was instructed to build it. But Judge Bun-

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EfT-
OKNK, Oregon,Oct.21. A real eM
fashioned homecoming with lots at
the' old time glory is what the com
mittees plan (or the aUmalaad far
mer students and friends of' the nal
verslty when the corn back (or a
day on Noveraber'Uth, to see the M
game .with the Ualverslty of Wash
ington. The various cosamjtteea an
making more elaborate plans aaA are
spending more money than erer be
fore, to make this homecoming the
biggest and best In the history of
homecomings at Oregon. Special ef
forts are being made to make the for
mer students, gradaates, and friends
or the university (eel that they are
coming homo to college for a day.
The football coaching staff Is
burning midnight oil to figure out
a 'combination which will swamp the
University ot Washington In the big
gest game of the season. For many
years the varsity has always come
through with the old Oregon fight
and won the homecoming game la
spite ot obstacles.
The festivities start Friday even
ing when a big pep rally will he '
staged through the down town
streets. Each house on the campus
rwlll have Its own noise making ma
chine and the bouse which produces
the most noise -will receive a fitting
prize. From the minute the college
gang turns the corner at 11th aad
Willamette, the town Is going to be
one red flare. A special committee
has been appointed to see thst plenty
of fire works are on'r.and for the
event.
After the downtown Jass rally the
serpentine will lead back to the cam
pus where tho hlg freshman bonfire
will Illuminate old Klncald field for
another big- show. Here stunts will
be staged and old graduates will tell
how it was done in the good old days.
Each of the men's houses on the cam
pus is hard at work on an original
stunt which will depict some angle
ot former game's with Washington
or some old Oregon tradition. Presi
dent Campbell will Introduce the
members ot the football team who
will play against the Sundodgera the
following day.
"We aro going to see that every
former Oregon man and woman is
made at home here during the week
end,'; Is the word from the welcom
ing committee. As many cars as possible-'
will be dratted Into service for
the two days and will be marked
"Official Alumni Car" and any
alumnus or former student will be
at liberty to ball these cars anywhere
down town, or on the campus for
transportation, fiuldes tvlll meet' atl
trains and everything will be done
to help tho Oregon graduate feel
that ho Is homo (or the one big day
ot the year.
There will be a registration booth
at Fifth and Willamette street, where
the slumnt are asked to register. The
dance tickets will be given .out at
that time to facilitate any confualoa
la handing them out later. The plan
also calls (or two booths on the
campus, one In Johnson hall and an
other In the men's gymnasium.
A special appeal Is being made
throtfgh the chamber of commerce
to the ctllsena ot Eugene tor aa
many rooms as will be needed to take
tare ot tho crowd. A special commit
tee has this work-in band.
' As a fit climax to aa old time
homecoming week-eadwlll be the In
formal homecoming dance which
will be held In the Armory down
town.
