1t is a question how much it would
take. The various demands Of medical
and hygienic boards and commissions
from this legislature total $287841.
All are agreed that some form of
quarantine against the person who is af-
flicted with a communicable disease is
necessary. On wearing masks, forbid

of amusement and other features of the

PoRTLAND's ovER-woRKED HALO
Eugene Daily Register)

In discussing the question Of state
roads and state road appropriations in
Oregon, there is one suggestion that oe-
ours. 1t is this: Perhaps it would add
to harmony if Multnomah county would
cease polishing the halo it assumed be-
cause it furnishes approximately third
of the road funds and yet gets no state
money spent directly within its borders.
ALI this is quite true, but in getting the
Columbia and the Pacific highways
paved Multnomah is doing very we'll by
itself.
Eugene and the valley part of Lane
county stand in about the same rela-
tion to central Western Oregon as do
Portland and Multnomah county, to the
entire state, and this area would cheer
fully-yes, enthusiastically-endorse a
plan that assured pavement of the Pa
cific highway north and south and the
Mckenzie and Coast highways to the
east and west-even though no pave
ment was laid within the valley part
of the county. We could well afford to
do our own connecting up.
But let us hope no one will assume
that this is spoken with the desire to
stir up sectional feeling with regard to
road building. The Columbia and the
| Pacific highways are admittedly the
principal through roads of the state and
gre those which should first receive
state aid. Getting to Portland is like
wise matter of Importance and prop
erly affects the location of roads. The
rest of the state admits that cheerfully
and freely, but it has grown somewhat
tired of the constant halo polishing
that has been INDUCED in by Multno-
nah over matter that is really a
stroke. sssszS3

that Brian had begun TO appreciate

RUSSIAN SOCIALISM.

In recent article in the Saturday Evening Post Will
Payne has performed useful service in making clear the
precise nature Of Bolshevism
1t is not @anarchism" as many people thought
lessy call it. but rather pure socialist preached by it's
founder and prophet, Karl Marx.
To most men socialism means something else, a sys-
TEN Of highly organized democracy That is because
most people have not read Marx but have derived their
ideas from socialists of moderate brands who have
departed from pure Marxism American notions of
calism have been coored largely by the comparatively
conservative rational teaching and work of the English
Fabian socialists represented by George Barnard Shaw
and by such American moderates as John Spargo
These moderaes have taken the best of the doctrines
suggested by Marx and ignored the rest In particular
they have not swallowed his doctrines Of the complete abo
ition Of private property and the monopoizaon of poll
itical and economic control by the working class.
1t is these radical MARKHAM principles the Boshevki,
or Extremists have founded their revolution They
want to do away altogether with the capitastic class
bourgeoise whether by taking their property or by
killing them seems immateral They want the State
to own and control all created wealth as we'll the
of production and they want the state to be governed by
the 'proletarat."
Thus Boshevist Socialism is not democratic at all.
Democracy is the "rue of the people," 1t implies
participation in government by all the people In DEM
ocracy the millionaire if there is SUCH has good right
to life liberty and the pursuit Of happiness the manual
aboer the professor or banker doctor has as good
right to citizenship as the shoemaker hodcarier The
Bolshevk preaching and so far as they can pracc
ing, a "proletarian dictatorship"
1t is turning czarism upside down. Instead of the
czar tyrannizng everybody ese the working class
is to yannze everybody ese And this is the system
to which millions of Russians and some Americans, want
to subject the whole world.
We hope the dry nation crusaders will remain liberal
enough to allow to fill up occasionally with hganberry
juice or Appleju,
Three weeks more of the legislative session with al
most the whole forty days work to do.
