Oh! Ye great law-makersl With
your great wisdom, where is thy
consistency and equitableness to be
found in these different laws?
And ye great newspaper editors
and reportersl Where has been the
activity or inactivity of your great
minds, that you have not discovered
and revealed the inconsistency of
these laws? AS that is your busi-
ness, and your implied duty to the
general public.
You have left it to an ignorant
wOodchopper, common voter, one
of that class that some say is not
capable of voting intelligently upon
laws; to propose the basic idea for
an automobile speed-law that is
feasible, and would be effective, eff
cient, fair and just to all concerned.
would appeal to other ignorant
voters, to join me in securing the
passage of such an vet.
And now, Mr.. Editor, l would ask
that you publish this letter and fur
ther, that you, as a moulder of pub
lie opinion with an implied duty to
perform, do one nf three things
Either advocate the repeal of the
laws regulating the construction and
maintenance of dangerous stationary
machinery in our mills, factories
and boats; the passage of law reg
ulating the construction and mainte-
nance of dangerous speed-gears in
automobiles and motorcycles; or ex-
plain why you favor one and oppose
the other?
In conclusion, l will say most en-
phatically, that 1t is not the conduct
of the automobile drivers that needs
regulating; but instead the actions
of the law-making forces need
changing and reforming in regard to
this matter If we are going to reg
ulate, let us regulate; If we are not;
let us not waste any money attempt
ing to enforce farcical regulation.
Hoping you will be with me in adj
vocating such an automobile speed
law, l am, Yours truly,

To Regulate Speeding.
Eola. Ore. Dec. ., 1911.

GCiot wv OcS. % A0AAs
Editor Salem Journal:
l am writing this letter to you for
publication, in regard to how to ef-
fectually regulate the speed Of auto
mobiles upon our public highways;
and showing the Righteousness OF
the present inefficient speed law.
If the people of the state wish to
enact a perfectly feasible, effective
automobile speed-law, that can be
efficiently enforced at minimum Of
cost, let them initiate and pass at
the next state election, a bill drawn
upon the following basic principle
of law.
That, on and after a certain date,
say January 1, 1914, it shall be un-
lawful, to use upon the public high
ways within the state of Oregon,
any automobile, motorcycle or other
self propelling vehicle or convey
ance that has a speed-power of more
than 20 miles per hour.
Such law should provide that all
automobiles and motorcycles shall
be tested in regard to their speed
power, by the sheriffs and police Of
ficers OF the state, and that after
such tests, licenses shall be issued,
only when the machines meet the re-
quirements of the law.
The sheriffs ard police forces
should be empowered and author
lied, under certain rules and re-
strictions, to seize and test the speed
power of any automobile or motor
cycle at any time; and it should be
made a prison offe0se to change the
speed-gears of such machines, and
replace with gears of greater speed
power
Such a law would certainly be ef-
fective. The most reckless automo-
bile driver could not and would not
attain a speed of from 40 to go; or
even 80 miles an hour, with a ma
chine geared for Ipeed of not more
than 20 miles an bour
Such law would be fair and just
to the law abiding automobile own
er; as such excess speed-power is
usable, only in violation of the law.
Let none be confused in regard to
the difference between the horse
power and the speed-power of auto
l realize 1t takes more
horsepower to maintain a certain
speed in climbing hills, but not
higher speed-gears. The wheels may
slip going up hill; and bound going
down; and make some difference;
but this is not caused by the speed
gears, / am simply advocating the
passage of law to control the con-
struction and maintenance of the
speed-gears only, the dangerous part
of automobiles and motorcycles.
Our Lawmakers, both state and
federal have seen fit to enact laws,
regulating the construction in our
mills and factories; and the con-
struction and maintenance Of hulls
and boilers of our boats, and provid-
ing for state and federal inspection.
But when it comes to regulating
dangerous traction machinery in the
form of an automobile or mortor-cy-
Gle 1t seems to be beyond the grasp
of their minds to apply the same
basic principle of law
Why restrict our mill and factory
owners from operating dangerous
stationary machinery, except under
certain requirements, for the safety
of the employees; and to allow those
same mill and factory owners to
operate dangerous traction machin-
cry, in the form Vt an automobile,
without any restriction in regard to
its construction; when such ma

City Election TAX.

Ed. Journal: Last evening l took
part in an election controversy, and
as the pro and con involved certain
statements previously set forth by
The Journal, the discussion became
interesting. It does not occur to
many people why newspaper is gen.
orally uniustly judged by an eccen-
trio individual, who is not broad
enough to look at a publication in an
unbiased and fair-minded way.
The newspapers of our country are
the best mediums of up-to-date infor-
nation that exist. When a man can
not read his home paper, which may
contend directly opposite to his judg-
ment, without becoming offended, he
is an eccentric, old-fashionod, out-of-
date fossil. Now I wish to state for
the benefit of the public that the
circulation Of The Journal touches
nearly every state in the Union, and
that very few daily papers are more
loyal to their home towns, none are
The Journals superlors, especially in
obtaining results.
And yet there are knockers for
"all % that, and all % that
If the smaller towns of our coun-
try were no more loyal to their news
papers than is Salem, they would not
many Of them have publication in
their community. When a man spends
all his spare time reading up on
up-to-date methods, and. besides puts
in eight or nine hours writing for
publication, it seems as though the
average citizen ought to be willing
to accept such information as a mat
ter Of controversy, even II not agree
ing with the points set forth.
But the time is fast approaching
when the subjects treated by news
paper will be a matter OF discussion,
and not an item for condemnation.
1t is a fact that the editor Of a daily
paper does not know the contents of
all general items printed. A news
paper has serveral parties connect
ed with the reports set forth, and
often the minute detail vary from
point or two that Is not with intent
to mislead.
In closing the point wish to bring
out is this. If all the people in the
town will do as much toward enlight-
ening the public as the newspapers
are doing, they will have to cover
more ground than have ever seen
any one individual doing And, while
they are trying, II they they are do
ing a good job, they won't have any
time to knock the publications, even
II It is governed by the opinion of its
publisher.
My advice to person who cannot
read their home paper without TAX
ing offense is for them to read up on
Socrates. Take note of the fact that
he seldom wore shoes the year
around; he never ate much except
when he arrived at free table, and
then he ate like a glutton; he never
changed his mind because he
thought he was right, and everyone
else was wrong mean Socrates, not
anyone in Salem. G. e.

Go Back to Michigan.

Ed. Journal A man named A. w.
Winston, who says he is from the
state of Michigan, is in Portland, and
writes an article for Portland paper
as follows:
Having heard and read much
about the Northwest, especially Ore
gon and its system of initiative, ref
erendum and recall, l have tarried
here in Portland. the principal city
of the state, for the express purpose
of studying the effects of your sys-
tenn. And, If found it better than
that of Michigan I would pull up
stakes (though some are down deep
and become an Oregonian.
"But when l learned that your
chief executive paroled murderer
who had lured .rancher into a hotel
and murdered him and gruesomely
packed the body in a trunk and went
joy riding the same night, and when
l learned that cold-blooded wife
murderer (the thought of it! A killer
of weak, defenseless woman) had
been paroled Western fever
dropped very noticeably.
81 have little money, and do not
like to consider being packed into a
trunk. l also have several esti-
mable daughters who will soon be of
marriageable age, and l do not like
to consider that, should the novelty
of married life become worn off,
governor would tempt fellow to dis
pose of wife in the manner that the
parollng of wife murderer would
suggest.
THAT suggestion that capital pun
ishment does not deter from murder
is based upon the few and tardy con-
victions and eventual paroles to i'm
prisonment. The fact that cunning
and unprincipled lawyers thwart JUS
tice is why human life is so cheap in
many localities. Dispose of a number
of deliberate murderers successfully
and promptly, and notice how prompt
ly also there will be decrease in
murders committed in the commu-
nifty"
This man who writes the above is
not well enough educated, nor has he
enough knowledge of facts to become
an Oregonian. 1t is well for the
great state of Oregon that men of
Mr., Winston's Judgment can see
such small things to cause him to
go back to where he came from.
Nearly all the subjects in the Oregon
pen are from other states than Ore
gon, If any one has come to this
state to look up the criminal ques-
tion, or is figuring on engaging in
such tactics as caused a man being
murdered and stuck in trunk, it
will be well for such persons to
know their fate in this state.
Anyway, when a person arrives in
Oregon from place like Michigan,
they should begin to study the gran
deur and beauty that exist, even in
mid-winter. See the majestic noun
tains, the green trees and valleys,
the beauty of the rosebud under the
oak boughs and so many other
touches of beauty that Michigan does
not possess at this time of year-or
at any other time.
Dear Mr.. Winston: Before you go
back to Michigan, please look at the
greatness. the grandness, the refine
ment and happiness in dear old Ore
gon, think that most of the peo-
pie in this state enjoy the blessings
Of Him, the Maker of the universe,
and most anyone can recognize the
same. OF course, anyone who is look
ing for thistles cannot see evergreens
