O. V. Hurt went into the Yachats
country when young man as men,
ber of a government survey crew and
possibly because he liked The coast
country or possibly because the roads
were so bad that It WIGS too hard to
get cut again he elected to remain.
Everyone in Benton and Lincoln
counties knows "Vic." Yesterday he
was Z. tie Imperial on business
tip from Corvallis, wheie @ he winters.
MI. Hurt reports that the government
is building a four-mile section of the
Alsea road, which trickles thru and
across the coast range between Cor
vcllis and Waldport. The section
under Improvement is from the bridge
to the state fish hatchery. From the
bridge, viii II was constructed by the
state last year, the forestry depart
ment has already built a good but mar
row road along the edge Of the river
for few miles down the coast
Mr. and Mrs. G. B. Hall of Yaquina
are at the Multnomah while Mr.. Hall
Is attending the convention of Stand
ard Oil agents. Something almost as
good as Standard Oil, as a money MAX
er, is the jitney which operates be-
tween Yaquina and Waldport. The
government built standard railroad
between those points to get out spruce
and when the war ended the railroad
was ranted to man for 81 year, the
government paying for maintenance
of way. The renter of this railroad
has plased flanged wheels on a Ford
and carries passengers the 16 miles
between Yaquina and Waldport for
$1,50, and as he has score of passcn-
gers a day and totes a few tons of
freight besides, his investment of 81
a year, paid to the government, is
better than gold mine.

Criticism of Government by Dragnet
and "Hue and Cry"

There can be but one opinion con
corning the action OF the assembly al
Albany yesterday in suspending its five
Socialist members. The Evening Post
cannot be suspected of sympathy foI
the impractical ideals of Socialism when
4 il declares that the assembly's action is
sinister threat against the funda-
mentals of democracy and representa-
tive government. Unlike Victor Berger,
who was expelled from Congress on his
individual record. the Socialist Assem-
blymen were not barred as individuals
but as adherents OF definite political
party and creed.
What happened at Albany is the log
ical outcome of a state of mind which
would combat enemies Of the public or

the established procedure of the law.
