Newspaper Page TextKLAMATH FALI s AN INDEPENDENT REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPER TUESDAY, NOVEMBt THE KLAMATH DAILY NEWS "Let u have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let ui to the end dare to do our duty a we understand it" Abraham Lincoln. A Tribute fa Poor Judgment Forced f.ct:r. ;r. nt is Ungraceful Even the mayor of Klamath Falls is not above the strong crushing force of public opin- And when he feels this power he submits ion. to the inevitable, with every effort to retire gracefully. Eugene B. Henry has tendered his resig nation as city engineer, an appointive office under the mayor. He had occupied the po sition since Mayor Goddard took office. Sev . eral weeks since it was discovered that Henry was not duly qualified to occupy his position. The Mayor learned all about the lack of qualification. Vainly he tried to keep the facts hidden. But facts have a way of un earthing themselves. Vainly did the mayor endeavor to strengthen his position and hold Henry. And strangely, he found support for his untenable stand. It is this sort of things that make people wonder what Klamath Falls is coming to, or in what queer fashion it is being used, or if it is ever going to get anywhere as a proud, well governed city. Mayor Goddard "was forced to retire from his indefensible position by the force of that public opinion which counts in Klamath Falls.' His retirement in the Henry matter might have been much more becoming even in a politician, more graceful, had it been earlier. The epi sode will remain in the recollection of the citi zens of Klamath Falls only as a tribute to the poor judgment of Mayor Goddard. The Duty of Americans Slacken Stay Auay From Polls The man who is entitled to no sympathy when he has a complaint agin the government is the man who can't understand that it is worth his while to vote, and know what he is voting about on election day. These, "Oh, what's the difference" indi viduals set themselves apart in a democracy. They are without pride or thought of full citi zenship. They are slackers.' , A full vote i3 required to express the will of all the people. Without it the will of the majority means nothing. Just so long as a nearly full vote is forthcoming this country is safe. ; This applies equally to school district, state and national elections. It is when the majority lies down on the job that danger comes. Always the minority is active. Minorities are, in their very nature, composed of restless people who will busy themselves on election day. And this is particularly true when the minority has a chance to put anything over. Leave this country to the minority, the restless eternally dissatisfied element, and red revolution would result overnight. But the minority has its purpose. Its agi tators keep the rest of the country, the major ity, on its toes. But if you are one of those who leaves voting to the other fellow, don't kick at what happens after the polls are closed.

I Ho has always thought of pro;- j resa In terms of pleasure. ; Man has nerer taken to heart Aristotle's admonition that "not pleasure, but freedom from pain, is what the wise man will aim at." We are all born, as Schiller says, in Arcadia. In other words, we come into the world full of claims to happiness. Most ot us live for our mo ments of pleasure. And in old age, he remembers all ot the pleasurea he has experi enced, and few ot the pains. But we must remember that not only men of different rare, but also men of the same race, and even the same men at differ ent periods ot life, hare different standards of happiness and pleas ure. Every age has its pleasures. Its style of wit, its own way. Remembering tills, we cannot with .Justice criticize the roads other persons travel in pursuit of happiness. Our standards cannot be every one's. v ".Moralists of one class dorlvo moral rules from a supreme polit ical power," Herbert Spencer ob served. "Those of another class recognize no othor.orlgln for them than the revealed divine will." "And though men who lake no dal prescription for Ihclr guide do not formulate Ihclr doctrine, yet the belief frequently betrayed, that conduct which society permits is not blameworthy. Implies there are those who think right and wrong can bo made such by pub lic opinion." ' It ought to be apparent by now, after several thousand years of failure, that men cannot he made by moral law. Because, as Tacitus long ago re marked, "Things forbidden hare a secret charm," forbidden pleas ures alone are , loved immoder ately. , It is a weakness nf man that to him what is common snd lawful Is uncle.ilralilo; and what is tin lawful Is very nttruijve.
