and family, for Tillamook for an ex

The auto driver who "hogs” all the
road for miles and refuses to let any
one pass him has no cause to com
plain when somebody else takes the
ditch, drives »round hint and then
make's him eat dust for miles. A little
courtesy would have saved him a dust
bath if he hud only appreciated that
fact.—Polk County Observer.
Much complaint
is heard from
those traveling on the roads oiled in
Yamhill coilnty that they were not
oiled soon enough. The result has
be. n that instead of there being a
good glazed surface, completely hold
ing the dust in check, there is now
dust that is oily. This makes it much
dirtier and of course more disagree
able.—Sheridan Sun.
Capt. Jackson, of the Newport,
says from his ticked records he finds
that the arrivals for the summer are
6,000 short of last year up to August
1st. This is a difference that has been
very noticeable, but we are, from all
reports, getting the lion’s share even
at that, as other summer resorts are
falling far below this average.—New
port Review.
The Oregon Voter has an illustra
tion showing how school districts
are sometimes organized to make the
timber holders bear their share of the
burden. It cites the case of the city of
Tillamook and goes to show how a
narrow connecting link is used to
connect the timber belt with the dis
trict. We see nothing unfair about
such a transaction as the timber bar
ons ought to pay their just part of
the taxes.—Willamina Times.
According to the Dry Goods Econ
omist, America, “boots sold to the
French government proved to be of
such inferior quality that the soldiers
tore them into strips, and 200,000
pairs of socks, purchased of Ameri
can mills, were found to be 30 per
cent wool and 70 per cent cotton, in
stead of the mixture being the other
way around.” If American war ma
terials have been equally base, Ger
many needn’t feel so bad that she got
none of it.—Telephone Register.
A young married woman was gagg
ed, bound and ravished by two hobos
over in Lincoln county last week.
The hobos were caught and sentenc
ed to life imprisonment. Such das
tardly crimes have been recorded in
Oregon before, yet withal capital
punishment was abolished, but now
with this fresh piece of beastiality
staring them in the face newspapers
that fought against capital punish
ment indignantly say, “Hanging is
too good for such beasts.” Oh, in
consistency, how you do play with
the hearts of men!—Sheridan Sun.
Down at Roseburg the citizens are
so incensed at a dozen or so knock
ers who are trying to block the saw
mill and railroad project, that they
arc going to resort to the boycott as
a means of eliminating such people
from the business affairs of the city.
If innocent people arc not effected
by such a course it is the proper
thing to do. Men who stand in the
way of either the material or moral
progress of a town or community
have no ligitimate right of any o’ the
benefits that come to such a munici
pality nor the protection of the law
which they openly defy. May this
movement started at Roseburg spread
to other points. The knocker and the
law defyer should be run out of
business.—Myrtle Creek Mail.
------ o—-—
The annual statement of receipts
and shipments at the Portland Union
Stock yards discloses the interesting
fact that during the year ending July
31,>915, 6,442 more hogs were receiv
ed than during the year ending July
3< 1914. This fact of course, might be
interpreted in two ways. It might
mean either that more hogs arc be
ing produced in the Northwest than
before or that farmers are selling
their stock down more closely. It is
probable, however, that it indicates
the production of more hogs, for the
average weight for 1914 was 199
pounds while for 1915 it is 190 pounds
A decrease in the average weight
hardly indicates heavy selling of
brood stock. It is to be hoped that
this is the construction to be placed
upon the figures, for a decrease in the
number of hogs on Oregon farms
could not be regarded other than a
calamity.—Oregon Register.
There is no just complaint to be
made regarding the requirement that
only registered pharmacists dispense
drugs, that is a safeguard for public
good, but in some respects it dis
criminates against the country drug
gist. It is a rare country drug store
that will justify two registered drug
gists. If only one is employed the law
will not permit an ordinary clerk to
sell even brush or pencil to customer
during the absence of the druggist
from the building. The store must be
locked to customers every time he
steps out. Nor is a doctor, unless he
be a registered druggist, permitted to
fill his pcrscription within the drug
store in the presence of his patient,
during the absence of the druggist.
This phase of the law is manifestly
unjust „and the county druggist and
his patrons should work together to
have this objectional feature reme
died.—Nehalem Times.
Roseburg, like many other com
munities, has been overrun with gift
schemes, trading checks, voting con
tests and numerous other devices to
a’s-vet patronage bv different mer
chants and combination of merchant«.
We have seen most of them flourish
awhile, then drop or die or be dis
continued because of the fact cust
omers lost* interest and would no
longer ask for them, and the givers
thtiusel,,}
see but little advan-
tage for themselves in the continued
giving them out. The latest ot these
widely heraided associations to go
under and admit its inability to keep
its promises is the American Script I
Company, which offered for an in
ducement for business, to give one
mile ill travel for one dollar in re-
turned coupons. 1 his company operat
ed in Roseburg and advertised in the
columns of The News to the extent
ol S10.20, during the time it was in
existance here. Upon a statement of
this account being rendered for pay
ment to the general office at Los
Angeles, a long copy of a typewritten ;
letter was received through which I
with many a "whereas, therefore and
resolved, ' the point was brought out
that the company was bankrupt, and I
it we desired to accept 35 per cent of
the a nount of the bill in settlement
in full, we should indorse the inclosed
certified one, and the old adage of
‘a bird in the hand, etc." still hoids
good the account was liquidated on
this basis. It is the opinion of »tie
majority of the merchants of this ity
that such methods of adveitising and
trade attracting are through here,
and many o f them admit that the
same, or even less, amount to legiti
mate advertising in the local newspa
pers would have brought more re
sults, with no comeback in com
plaints from customers whose ex
pectations were not realized. Um:.-

1 he other day an excited individual
rushed into a newspaper office with a
choice bit of scandal burning his
tongue. It made no difference to this
person that the scandal effected the
daughter of his neighbor—that the
mother of the girl was seriously ill—
that the brother was just entering a
successful professional career. The
scandal was rich in flavor, and he
wanted to see it in the paper. He told
the editor about it, with every evi
dence of the keen relish of the scan
dal connoisseur, but impressed upon
the newspaper man that the source of
his information must be kept inviol
ably secret. W hen the paper came out
the man returned to demand why the
story hadn’t been published. Short
sharp words followed and the visitor
called the editor a coward and left,
vowing that a man who was afraid
to print the news had no right to be
an editor. To our mind the editor was
a brave man. The informer who de
manded that his name be kept secret,
was the coward. The editor ran a pa-
per in a small town. So closely rclat-
ed were the lives ■ of the inhabitants,
that the editor new every detail of
the story before his visitor called on
him. But he could see no profit ;or
himself nor glory for |iis paper ii. I
printing an item that would bring
sorrow to the gray hairs of a father,
disgrace to a brother and probabiv
serious consequences to a sick moth
er. If the news appetite of his readers
were so voracious, he thought as 'o
demand this costly food, he would 1
refuse to pay the price. The editor
was right.
Many things he has to
print which he would rather leave un
said, but the scandal which has only
its "spice” to recommend it should
have no place in the columns of a
self-respecting newspaper. We would
rather build than tear down. We
would rather print the things that
help and encourage and uplift thin
to hold up the mistakes of some un-
fortunate to the scorne of contempt
of his neighbors. Dcccnsy is not lack
of courage. If it were, we would
rather be decent than courageous.—
