LET U8 IK PRACTICAL.
Politics is tho unsatisfactory busi
ness in the world. It is a compound
ot theorizing and seltishness. The
theorist grasps after ideals; the
selll-m politician eau see no further
than his pocket and works for Hint.
The public welfare must put up too
often with a ttompromls between
follies and greed. Tho people must
learn to reach more directly for re
sults, to demand certain results at a
given, time and inako that multn
deli nit e political issue.
TitK Jouunal lias tried to Indi
cate the special needs of this con
gressional district as belli- summed
up not alono in a representative
who should ko in for blc apuronria-
tlons but ouo who should concen
trate his energies especially upon
tho work of opening our prluclpal
rivers. Wo have attempted to snow
that Congressman Hermann has not
done as much to open tho Willa
mette river as ho has to open Coos
Bay, nud yet tho commerce of tho
Willamette valley is a thousand
times as great as that of Coos Hay.
Not but that Coos Bay harbor should
bo improved by tho government,
but that two millions for Coos Biy
and no special effort for tho great
Willamette valloy is an Injustice to
this valley. Tho whole- thing lies
in a nutshell of selfishness, to boom
Coos Bay real estato with a big gov
ernment appropriation at tho neg
lect of other parts of tho state.
We believe at tho coming election
is tho timo to secure an open river
congressman. Wo believe Mr, Her
mann. If ho is ro-uominated and re
elected, will bo a moro useful con
gressman and will come more nearly
to doluK his duty by this great
valley and its majestic waterway If
tho Issue of opening the river Is
forced plainly upon his attention in
a practical ruauner.
i;UI UISFOHM.
'Ihere 1 novd In Oregon of a great
roul reform. Governor Hill of New
York has recommended tabuing of
millions of bonds to build roads
within that state. Other states are
as b.ui oil' as Oregon. A fow thiugH
aro certain here. Tho roads aro bad
and expensive. Tho supervisor
should not bo allowed to collect
taxes and then go to work with a
plow and summer-fallow tho road?.
To plow up a ro.id bed that has been
used twenty years is a suicidal
imllov of road work. All the tax
money for roads should bo expended
In some uniform plan adopted by
tho county court. Every man
should not be allowed to work tho
roads as ho pleases, when ho plea&ca
or where ho pleases.
At present roads are an embargo
upon town ami country prosperity.
Thoy will hardly penult farmers to
j'o town to get mall, nay nothing of
marketing his products, or taking
advantage of good prices.
Bad roads are tho biggest tax.
