Pertinent Inquiries from a Wamie
Philosopher.
Wamic, Oregon, Morch 10, 189i;
Editor Dalles Chuoxiclk : What is
the cause for -taxes being twenty Wive
mill on the dollar in Wasco county this
last year, as there is a great deal of in
qniry throughout the farming com- j
munity to know T What is the reason of
the people of Wasco county being taxed
so high these last few years? We cannot
see that the county court has been ex
pending money on public improvements
in Wasco county, that would justify a
tax levy of twenty-five mills on the dollar
and at the same time a juryman cannot,
without some trouble, dispose of his
county script at a discount to get money
to pay for his board while attending
court as a juryman.
Mr. Editor, a great portion of the
farmers of this part of the county have
come to the conclusion that there, should
be a little more economy used in the ad
ministration of county . affairs and lees
extravagance amongst county officers
and fewer pets around the court house.
The old leaders may feel secure in their
position now in this county.
But if the signs of the times portend
anything the next election in Wasco
county there will be a political killing
among the old political parties, ' as it is
the only show to get relief.
Now Mr. Editor I do not belong to the
alliance, but you know that I do belong
to an organization that is non-partisan
in politics but believes in political econ
