THE FREEDOM OF

Tho oyoti of tho thinking world nro focused on Kngland, and nil bocauio
ono man has sought to defy tho will of anothor. That man Is Lord North
cllffo, tho world's grcntont publisher, tho owner of upward of two hun
dred publlcntlonn, among them tho groatost newspaper In Kngland. Tho
othor man Is the "llttlo Wolchmon," thn promlor of England, Lloyd

which It Ik proposed to hold In Washington, tho premier winced and In
his nnger struck back at tho publlshor, by closing certain avenues of In
formation heretofore open to his newspapers, forgetting that Informa
tion Is not tho porsonal property of Lloyd Ucorgo, but of his masters tho
people. Ilo further forgot that promlera havn corno nnd premiers hnvo
gone, but great newspaper continue on and will bo read and listened to
when ho Is forgotten. . '
Norlhcllffo Is not tho only newspaper mnn who has had to meet tho

Tho subsidized press Is tho curso of

politician, who hones to hldo hls'mladciit or find a defender when ho Is

volco of thn press by his advertising, by tbo fnnntlc who can seo nothing

Tbo outcome of tho controversy will not decldo tho relative abll

freedom of thn press. To throttle tho volco of tho press, to bend It to
their whims and fancies, to dictate Its policy, to control Its utterances has

L. J. Dean, proprietor of the Cen

rectly gauged, the .trend of paljllc
sontlment and although alone in his
stand and faced by poaalblo discipline
from tho barber's anion, today an
nounced a reduction ot prices, ef
fective next Monday.
Tho proposed redactions are: hair
cuts from 75 to 5 cents; abaves
from 35 to SC oeats; tho ahloes
from 20 to 15 cemU.
According- to Mr. Bean the aver
ago scale on tho Pacific coast it 25
cents for shares and 50 cents for
haircuts. The reduction therefore
brings shaving to tho gone.'al price
lovet. The difference in the prlco
of hair cutting will be justified In
tho public mind. It Is believed, by
tho generally higher cost ot oper
ating here.
Probably no item ot cost has been
more generally criticized by tho pub
lic than the local tonaorial prices.
Barbers have been getting rapped
on every hand. Traveling wen have
been especially bitter critics and have
carried away tales of Klamath Falls
barber's charges, probably raagnlflod
In the re-telling, that has helped lo
give the city a. 'lot of bad advertuw

It ( believed that Ue example of
the Central shop will bo follow 1 by
