JOINT REPRESENTATIVE

Mr.. A. w. Silsby of Ashland and
Mr. Whistler of Medford have been
nominated as candidates for Joint
representative from Jackson and
Douglas counties. Mr.. Whistler is
the republican nominee and Mr.. Sils-
by is the prohibition nominee. AS
the Tidings is engaged in champion
ing the cause of the progressive
party, and as neither of these gem
tlemen are candidates on that ticket,
what we have to say is not dictated
by partisanship.
While the Tidings does not vote
the national prohibition ticket, it be-
lieves in prohibition. 1t differs with
those favoring a prohibition ticket
in this: They seem to think the pro-
hibition cause can be best forwarded
by putting a party ticket in the field
while we take the view that it can be
quickest and best accomplished by
holding the balance of power in a
dominant party, or holding the bal
ance of power Independently between
the dominant parties, always casting
its full voting strength to the party
offering the best evidence in favor of
prohibition. But let this pass. 1t is
only a difference of opinion as to
methods.
The Tidings will support the can
didacy of Mr., Silsby because he
stands more nearly for the principles
in which we believe than his oppon-
ent, Mr.. Whistler is a stand-patter
and seems proud of it. He is op-
posed to woman suffrage; he is
against most of the progressive
measures we think are vital to the
proper development of government in
its relation to society; he is opposed
to prohibition. In short, his notions
of political policies are as far from
ours, in nearly all respects, as the
east is from the west. On the other
hand, Mr.. Silsby stands for most of
the policies in which we believe and
is man of sterling principle.

think we value too highly to have
out where anyone can see it-some-
thing we keep in the farthest corner
of the cupboard of our mentality, to
be taken out in private and rejoice
over. But nothing is sacred to the
crouch. He seeks out the treasures
of hidden places, and consumes
them.
A crouch and twenty years! An
anachronism, surely! We may smile
in amusement at it, and welcome
back the dimples, which never re-
main long away, while the heart is
young.
But crouch and forty, fifty, or
sixty! Heaven save us from the con-
temptation.
Yet there isn't such a great stretch
as one might imagine, between twen-
ty and forty, or fifty, or sixty.
And the crouch who gains en-
trance to the consciousness of twenty
how he chortles with glee, for he
knows that by his toucn he can con-
vert twenty into forty. And he
knows that if twenty years opens the
door and lets him in, he will have
lodgment, off and on, through all
the years, till twenty years have
merged into forty and fifty into sixty,
and the face of twenty years has be-
come scared and SCARED by the fires
or Ill humor he has kindled
But sometimes-a blessed word
there is one virtue a crouch pos
sesses, and that is timidity He is
easily discouraged. He will knock at
your door, like opportunity. And,
like though ingalls,
beautiful poem proclaims otherwise
he will come back and knock
again.
He will even peer in through the
closed shutters of your house,
through which he can see the light
streaming, to see if you are at home
for he's a sneaking, prying fellow.
But if he continues to knock, and
you do not open, he vii. give a Sigh

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.

Porter J. Neff of the Medford bar
has written splendid pamphlet on
capital punishment. He supplies
statistics which show that homicide
is more on the increase in states
where the death penalty is inflicted
than in those where it is not while
the crime is on the increase in all
AS contributing causes to this situa-
tion he cites as most prominent the
technicalities and refinements of our
criminal law, which lean all to the
side of the accused, thus affording
fair possibility for the criminal to
escape all penalty. Where there is
better chance to avoid the penalty
the crime of murder will be more
common. The second contributing
cause is found in degeneracy. The
normal man, in normal state of mind
seldom takes life. There is a natural
human aversion to it. In most cases
the crime of murder is committed by
those subject to abnormal excitement
easily losing their balance. falling
into irresponsible rashness, or by
those utterly degenerate. "Alenists
recognize this situation. They have
given the name moran to the most
pronounced of this type" At all
events, the wisdom of capital pun
ishment is questioned in many quar-
ters and Mr.. Neff has dealt ably with
the subject.

LOSING THE IDEALS.

Here's another blow to ideals!
Really seems as if every childhood
ideal, or sentiment, or beautiful, de-
lightful illusion must be knocked in
the head by the present day, merci-
less, pragmatic science.
Didn't you, as kid, just love that
old story of the Exodus? There was
old John d. Rockefeller Pharaoh just
making the poor Israelites work
their hands off for nothing save their
board and religion, and abusing them
in every way, and when they got or
ders to move out to fairer land, he
wouldn't let them go. Then the Lord
sent plaques, including California
fleas. But Pharaoh's heart was only
softened temporarily and, when the
tribes of Israel had got a good move
on toward Canaan, the mean old crit
ter took after them, hotfooted, with
a great army bearing big swords and
spears and a ravenous appetite for
Israelites..
And, our Sunday school teacher
used to tell, when the poor Israelites
came to the Red Sea, weak and tired,
they despaired. But the waters of
the sea opened and the poor people
passed over dry shod. And there
close behind, came old bloody Pha-
raoh and his warriors, a-howling and
a-roaring and accusing to beat all
Gee! but we used to be terribly sorry
for and scared about those poor folks
standing there on the beach, weeping
and wailing. not knowing for certain
whether they were to become meat
for that Egyptian mob or ancestors
for our leading bankers, theater own
ers and drygoods merchants. Didn't
our heart swell in praise! Didn't
we stand right up and cheer, wher
that good old Red. Sea put out Mr.
Pharaoh and his hosts in one grand
unanimous bath? You bet!
Alas! Now comes Professor
Raphael of the French Academy O
Medicine and proves to the satisfac
tion of the scientific world that tn,
lsraleites never saw that Red Sea a
all, but came across the bitter lake
of the Isthmus of Suez, the water o
which was made scarlet by myriads o
little red worms.
Dear, dear That beautiful Sc,
story laid low And by worms
Might just as well prepare to learl
that David slew Goliath by runnin,
him down with a motorcycle, or tha
the record of Mrs. Lots fate is
mere yarn got up by the anti-suffrag
cites, or that the selling of JOSEPH
into slavery by his brethren was
put-up job concocted at brotherly
convention in which Josey himsel
was the leading stand-patter.

ness; and even though we who now

Six weeks ago, here in Chicago, I
spoke to the honest representatives
of convention which was not domi-
mated by honest men, a convention
wherein sat, alas a majority of men
who, with sneering indifference to
every principle of right, SO acted as
to bring to a shameful. end a party
which had been founded over half
century ago by men in whose souls
burned the fire of lofty endeavor

WHAT Is THE SPEED LIMIT?

What is the speed limit of a winged
gas engine?
Nobody knows. The development
of the science of flying has been so
wonderful in the last few years that
even expert aviators will not hazard
guess
All they can say is that the aero
plane is responding as nothing else
is to the demand of the modern
speed maniac for fast, faster, fastest.
And what is inconceivable speed to-
day may see, what?-2OO miles an
hour tomorrow?
! 1t is but three years since the Cor
don Bennett aeroplane race was in
stituted, and in that brief time the
speed of aerial craft has more than
doubled
The 1909 race was won at so miles
an hour. The other day, in the 1912
| Gordon Bennett race in Illinois, Jules
Vedrines flew around a small circu-
lar course, 1865 miles an hour. And
the same afternoon he bettered that
by making 20 kilometers in less than
seven minutes-a speed of over 107
miles an hour.
Try to grasp what such speed
means. For more than 100 miles this
daredevil little French mechanic,
with his 140-horsepower monoplane,
built in the likeness of a flying fish,
outstripped any fish that ever flew,
and any but the very fastest birds
Every minute, for 60 minutes in sue
cession, he moved 9,24O feet. Every
second he put 154 feet behind him
half the distance of an average city
block
At that rate Vedrines could almost
fly across the 1000 miles of the
American continent between two
sunrises. He could cross the Allan
tic in day and a night.
Anu InlS, dNldIOIS IulHh, Is only
the beginning. If the speed has dou-
bled in three years, why may it not
double again in the next three?
How long will it be before a man
can fly from New York to Chicago
between breakfast and lunch, and
from Chicago to Denver between
lunch and dinner?
And the pity of it is that America,
which first fitted the wings to the
gas engine and made man at home
in the air lanes, has surrendered it's
conquest to foreigners. The last
Gordon Bennett race went by default
to the French, and the only use
found for an American aeroplane was
to go aloft for the purpose of photo
graphing the flying Frenchman.
Our aviators lack scientific and
mechanical knowledge, they lack the
all-important engines of the Euro
peans, and they lack the monoplane
models that are to our numbering BIZ
planes as the eagle is to the quail.
