It's practical application as i a win-the-war idea Is a flue thing - and as a developer of national thrift . ' It can't be beaten. There Is such , ! a thing, however, as working the idea overtime, and there 1b such a thing as UBlng It, ' under the guise or potrlotlc ardor, to carry out the , most diabolical schemes of design- lng spite-workers. Thus we find Sam Jackson and the Portland Journal waging a bit ' ; ter campaign agalnBt the country editors of the state of Oregon, In ad- vocating the delinquent tax law ' amendment and a new legal rate ' law. ' economy" shouts the Journal and Its wealthy editor, and of course to bring a' out a real era of economy, the voting public Is urged to support the two bills bearing the earmarks of Samuel Jackson. Economy Is a fine quality for the state, as well as the individual, and were Mr. Jackson's motives actuated purely from the economy viewpoint, his dally editorials might ring with sincerity. .- '- Look out or theBe laws. Editor Jackson has supported freak legis lation before most jiotalbry . when the single tax idea waB smothered. by the voters of the state. The pros ' out statutes which Mr. Jackson would place on the - Oregon law books, would have no more to do - 'th in era of economy throughout the state of Oregon than would a bill to cut uown the price of a shave. The thinking votor will give both meaauroB a close analysis, and the thinking voter of the state will come to a conclusion on the worth 01 tne measures about as follows: . Both measures should be vigor ously swattetil by the voters, for the ' very sane and simple reason that the present laws, passed by the Ore gon state legislature, are fulfilling their mission, by "protecting the public from the wllos of the title grabber. Any law that Is protective and is of practical service to the people of the rtato should be let alone. To be more spoclflc tne present delinquent tax law provides for pub lication or tne delinquent list out ONLY after a small notice has been sent to the delinquent and has fnilod to fulfil Its mission. In other words the publication Is simply a precau tionary measure to lntorm the de linquent who has changed his ad oroBB, or who through somo reason falls to get hlB mall notice, that his , taxes are duo and payable. The effect of such a law cuts out the chances for the little grabber who hangs around the tax collector's of- - hce from the moinont the taxes be come dalinquont, in an effort to line up and pick up some so-called snap". A "snap'' to the title grab ber Is the picking up of your proper ty or mine, for the taxes due plus penalty and interest. It's a groat business to follow, but Juet tho sanio it Is being done In every county In MAJESTIC Closed until quarantine is raised. the state. - ; - Jackson would cut out this publi cation from the present lay. Any sane voter Ian see the result. Let the present law stanu tho way it is, if you are In favor of protecting the taxpayer. ' The other bill Is to cut down the present rate for legal advertising. At the present time tne law nxes tne legal rate at 6 cents per line. The Portland papers asks Usually $1.00 to 11.50 per Inch for tneir com merclal advertning. The state law makes the rate about 46 cents per inch, ' The thinking voter will de cide for himself whetner the rate is exorbitant. The newspaper men have a right to live. They are doing a most meritorious work in boosting war activity, and have won highest praise from President Wilson for their patriotic publicity work, wnicn by the way Is all donated! to Uncle Sam. The thinking voter win con cede that the country newspaperman has a right to exist. It Is no time to throttle the press of Oregon, or anv other state. Swat the Jackson measures both of them. - , , . ftm CLEAN FURS. ' To nroduoe a rich looking effect, furs must have their origin animal lustre.
