SOLDIER TURNS BURGLAR
is GIVEN HARD SENTENCE

The debut of Private Daniel Mix,
18th company, Coast Artillery Corps,
as a burglar, has resulted in a sem
tence of no less than seven years at
hard labor in the federal pententiary
at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas.
Mix was stationed at Fishers Is
land, n. Y, when he became short of
money and started out to make up
the deficit. He broke into two houses
during the night. However, jewels
and silver plate did not make up his
booty, as might be expected from the
sentence imposed. The list is made
up of such articles as zone white bed
quilt, with red worsted trimmings
zone bed quilt with rose figures and
pink lining" and "one sofa pillow,
blue with red spots" Mix was accus-
ed with stealing also zone toy boat
value fifty cents and one sofa pillow
with blue stripes, but was acquitted
Of these two specifications.

HOW MUCH OF THIS
FUND TO BE WASTED

Washington. Southerners are
wondering just how much of the
100000 which congress recently ap-
propriated for the erection of monu-
ments to mark the graves of uniden-
titled confederate soldiers who died
in northern prisons, will be devoted
to that purpose, as a result of de-
cision of the comptroller of the treas
ury recently made.
The comptroller has decided that
the travelling expenses of army Off
GERS in charge of the erection of the
monuments and of their families
shall be paid out of the appropria-
ton, instead of from the funds of the
war department. The officers are al
So to receive a per diem while super
vising the work.
Since at least half a hundred mon
uments are to be erected, it has been
figured out, by statistical shark III
the treasury department that less
than half of the original appropria-
ton will be expended for the purpose
for which it was primarily intended

THEY WILL BRING RESULTS.

AS a result of trip to Salem by
the officers of the Umatilla county
good roads association and some 9TH
er local men the members Of the
Umatilla legislative delegation now
look with more favor upon the good
roads measures that are under con-
sideration. It looks like they will be
for the bills when they come up for
final passage.
There is every reason in the world
why the Umatilla legislators should
be for the good roads measures. UNA
tilIa county wants good roads. Local
farmers and business men have been
holding meeting for years at which
they have talked and planned fol
better highways. The sentiment for
improving the roads is unanimous
What we want is action.
The good roads measures IL adopted
will bring about good roads in thii
county and in all other counties thai
take advantage Of the state aid law
Within the next two years the sum OF
$4,000 will be expended in building

THE LAW OF OUR LAND.

\ law may be foolish law. There
are thousands of laws which, for good
practical reasons are not enforced
says Robert Sloss in an article in Sue
cess Magazine entitled "Why Is an
Express Company" Law is merely
an expression of the popular will, and
if the popular will is not behind the
law, or does not stay behind it, that
law should not exist, And If you and
l and all of us do not want law en-
forced, who is going to enforce it?
Here is Section ISL, Revised Stat
utes of the United States, passed
March 4, 1909. At that time there
had already been in existence for forty
years and more a law covering the
same point. For forty years and more
the express business of this country
had been operated in direct violation
of the older statute. There is no ques-
ton about it. In so far as the express
companies compete with the Postof-
flee department in carrying mailable
matter-and that is no mean share of
the express business-they are break
ing this law.
"Whoever shall establish any pri-
vate express for the conveyance of
letters or packets, or in any manner
cause or provide for the conveyance
of the same by regular trips or NJ
stated periods over any post route
which is or may be established by law
or from any city, town or place to any
other city, town or place between
which the mail is regularly carried, or
whoever shall aid or assist therein,
shall be fined not more than $500 or
imprisoned not more than six months,
or both
provided, that nothing contained
in this section shall be construed as
prohibiting any person from receiving
and delivering to the nearest postof-
flee postal car or other authorized de-
pository for mail matter any mail
matter properly stamped"
You may wonder why the law has
not been enforced against the express
companies. Not long ago the United
States circuit court dismissed a suit
| brought under this law by Nathan b.
Williams, of Fayetteville, Arkansas,
on the ground that a private citizen
had no right to bring suit against the
express companies for operating
against the law over the post roads;
such suit, said the court, could be
| brought only by the government.
Thereupon, P. r. Howard, of Gin
cinnati, brought pressure on the at
| tcrney general to act against the eX-
press companies. The answer was
the following statement, issued by the
department of justice:
"The department has made a very
complete study of the proposition and
| agrees with Mr.. Williams on the law,
except as to the one point, namely
that there has been an administrative
construction against the proposition
for over forty years, and the chances
are that suit will be defeated on that
| ground
Our government, ignoring the new
| er statute, takes the position OF KILL
| ing. by administrative construction,
what is supposed to be the popular
| will.

permanent roads in this county. That
sum will build many miles of macad-
am roadway and will constitute a
good start towards a system of per-
manent highways. After that 1t will
not be hard to build permanent roads
here.
In the view of the East Oregonian
there would never have been any OBJ
lection from this county to the good
roads measure had they been fully
understood. First came the bugaboo
of a cross state highway to arouse in
'dignation and opposition. But
the people have been shown that the
good roads bills do not call for any
state highway. The roads will lead
10 the market places in the various
counties and the county court will Sc
lect the roads TO be improved.
Then it was complained that the
state aid bill is not equitable and that
Umatilla county would be paying in
more than would come back. But
that complaint has been shown to be
ill-founded. Multnomah county is the
one that will lose and Multnomah will
lose heavily. Yet the PortlanderS
are not objecting. On the contrary
they are boosting for the bills with
all their might.
The way to get good roads is tc
build them. We cannot get them by
talking about the matter year after
year. People cannot get to paradise
| if they quarrel forever as to the route
t. take. If the good roads bills nov
before the legislature are adopted we
will get results. That is why the
East Oregonian is for the passage Of
the bills now before the legislature
and this paper is firm in the belief
that when the situation is fully un.
derstood all practical people WIFI
heartily endorse our legislators if they
swing into line and work and vote
for the good roads measures.

GIVE THEM \ CHANCE.

| If allowed to do so Governor West
and state Treasurer Kay, constitut-
| ing the state board, will erect near
this city a branch state hospital that
will be creditable in every respect.
They want to build we'll, keeping in
view the fact that the institution will
not be used for a day but for many
generations. Certainly that is the
view to take of the matter. This is
not a pauperized state and it can af-
ford to provide its insane wards with
modern and we'll equipped sanitar-
ium.
At this time the success of the
branch asylum waits on two things.
First additional money must be ap-
propriated for the institution. Sec
ondly factionalism in the legislature
must not be brought to play too much.
In other words the legislature should
not try to place the members of the
board "in q hole" by imposing too
many restrictions upon them. Cover
nor West and Mr.. Kay will have to
build the institution and be respon-
sible for the work that is done. They
should be given free hand in the
matter so that they may do the best
in their power for the state. 1t is not
for the legislature to play horse"
with the state board simply because
there is a legislative faction that
stands opposed to the present admin
istration.

THE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND

Governor Oswald West is trying
earnestly to do his duty by the peo-
pie of his state. He is striving to
bring on greater efficiency in the pub
lie service and to secure the passage
of some meritorious legislative meas
ures. But at every turn he is being
harassed by a group of disgruntled
and discredited politicians who don't
want his administration to succeed.
But Governor West is going to win,
in the long run, if not now.
II is much as the oregon Journal
said last evening:
Republican legislatures in oregon
have universally played into the hands
of democratic governors. They did
it for Pennoyer. They did it for
Chamberlain. In the Bailey and sew
-eral other matters, they seem in fair
way to do it for Governor West.
West asked the body to deal with
Bailey. A refusal by the body to do
SO will make the governor about 10,-
900 votes stronger with the people.
Amy legislature with an abnormal
majority OF any party usually be-
comes drunk with its own power and
does foolish things. A game of cheap
politics has been played at Salem
throughout the present session by the
Bowerman faction possibly with the
notion that the public does not un-
derstand what is going on.
But the public fully understands
the horse play. and it will fully un-
derstand If for political reasons. pub
lie money by thousands continues to
be spent on Bailey.
1T understood in the case Of Pen
noyer. It understood in the case OF
Chamberlain, and it will understand
iu the case of West. God save the
republican party from its six-blt pol,
Iticians."

MUMBLED LEGISLATION,

Says william Bayard Hale in The
Worlds Work for February.-A tour
ist visitor in Washington recently
complained of the acoustic qualities
of the chambers of congress.
81 was in the house today" he
said, land could hear nothing. The
clerk was calling the roll for over
an hour and nobody needed or an
swered him. His voice was mere
humble"
A cynical Washingtonian replied:
Some Of the business that passes
the house (and the senate, too
should be mumbled. 1t was proper
that you should imagine a roll-cal
when the special-pension bills were
being passed. They are the bills thai
congressman never discuss"
The next day the visitor bought g
copy Of the Congressional Record. II
contained thirty double-columnec
pages in very small type. To a cas-
ual observer a telephone directory
would be more interesting. Here the
names were followed by dollars IN
stead of addresses In pension mat
ters, the public is never allowed t.
learn addresses.

sTEINERT SONS co. HAVE
 TICKETS FOR YALE CONCERT

The M. steinert sons Co. has con- sented to sell seats for the Scotti- PasquaIi concert at Yale University. Scotti of the Metropolitan Opera House who is coming to sing for Yale and incidentally to open the season of concerts at Woolsey Hall, on Thursday, October 5. is not only the greatest baritone we have today, but he is the greatest actor on the opera stage This includes the women as well as the men stars. There is no singer at the Metropolitan today whose acting is as finished, as polished, as elegant. as strong. Whatever he does he does superbly. His singing is a joy, because he not only does all that the compose. asks of a singer but he glorifies everything he attempts by his wonderful art as well as by a voice that has no peer on any stage.
 This will be the first time, that Scotts. has sung in New Haven, or hereabouts, and the concert on Oct. will be his first concert this year. as he is due in America on Satur- day
 Associated with Scotti on Thursday night next, in a program of French and Italian music, will be the new coloratura soprano of the Metropoli- tan, Mme de Pasquali. She has a remarkable voice, this young soprano, high and clear and wonderfully fresh. It is a flute-like voice, like that of Melba. As she sings admirably in English, Mime. de Pasquali has placed a group of songs by American com posers on the program
