Oregon has been extremely parsimonious with her J public, institutions. To make a record of economy and a grandstand play to the galleries, state institutions have, )C('ll Slal'VCO.

Ore gon increases .'() per cent a year, and it would not be a very progressive commonwealth if it tried to hold its public institutions down to their original size and cost. The buildings of the state university are a disgrace to the state. Had enough monev been appropriated in the past to erect what should have been erected, it would notjroweut margin no necessary in is year. The agricultural college receives half a million dollars this year, but it did not get enough last time, and it could use todav everv bit of additional facilities to be provided for by the last session. Nothing is built for the future and by the time the money is spent the institution will be over crowded These conditions apply to every institution. Had for mer legislatures recognized the situation the state would tot be so far behind (he times but every legislature dreads the .wail of the mossback economist. Not a state in the Union that isjsp far behind the needs of her people, or. spends so small a pqr capita for upkeep of her institutions and the upbuild yig'Jof her industries. Washington spends over twice as much per capita, and that in pari accounts for the more ra'pid growth of that state. A million dollars is provided by the legislature for the coming two years x)y indirect. taxation, leaving two mil lions by direct taxation. On a valuation of $900,000,000, this will require a state tax of two and one-quarter mills, and the following year of 1.8 mills. This year the rate is 1.(5 mills, the lowest on record. The grange is constantly howling about robbing the farmer by taxation, yet the farmer only pays 14 per cent of the taxes of the state. Instead of opposing appropria tions, he should be demandine; large appropriations to build highways to develop and enhance the value of his pronerty. The assessed valuation of the state in 1900 was $117,-801,87-1. It has grown steadily since until in 1910 it reached $814,887,708. The total tax levied for state pur poses in 1901 was $071,487. In 1911, it was $1,385,015. State revenue from other sources than direct taxation in 1901 was $100,991; in 1910, $:93,201. Tho average rate of levy for state purposes in 1901 was 5.7 mills; in 19012, (J and one-third mills; in 1903, 4.9 mills; in 1904, 7 mills; in 1905, 5.4 mills; in IflOfi, 2 mills; in 1907, 2.4 mills; in 190S, 1.98 mills; in 1909, 2.1 f J mills; in 1910, 2.2 mills; in 1911,1.(14 mills. So, despite the increased appropriations, (he ratio of taxation has steadily decreased. It is to be hoe.d that the governor will not veto any of the appropriations, all of which are needed. EVERY SHIPPER A (imSATKU Medford is the aim and object ofall of us, but a few should not be obliged to bear all the burden of creating it. The most important movement under way to accom plish this result is the effort being made by the iMedford traffic bureau to secure reduced freight rates in and out of the cit v. If the bureau's efforts are successful, Medford will be come an important jobbing renter and its future is assured. The Medford traffic bureau consists of a number of shi'"ers who dig into their own pockets to carry on the campaign. Six cases are pending;, );efore the state' railroad commission and the iuterslao' roilroad commission brought by this bureau for Medford 's ifonefit. "One rase, that securing a rcdiicMoirfrom Portland lu Medford on carloads, has already bqcu won. As a result, ovvy shipper in the city will receive a substantial rebate on past shipments and a 20 per cent lower future rate. Other cases pending will the cost of living and in many ways benefit the community. Therefore every shipper should aid in carrying on these cases, for he will save manv times the cost of his contribu- that aiioiuu ucar me imnien lor cmil 1'ibulcd n pent In j lid in tln " ' ' ... for their rebates from the railroad.
