Editor Review: Single tax will benefit the fain prophets who are hired by wealthy non-reBldentH to bring ubuut u crush In real estate values in Oregon. It will nerve !U purpoHe If It acts to destroy the present value or farm, fruit and timber land, giving I he big speculators of tbu lOam u chance to invest In these lands Just before the people, who will adopt It, change their minds and repeal It, because the people are not going to penult its operation, If adopted, to confis cate private title to property. How many home owners want to become tenants with tho stale ns landlord? It is argued that the farmer wants It bo he will not have to pay tax on hia Improvements, stock, etc., hut the farmer knows that when nine tenths; of the property in tho cities Is exempt from taxation some one must mnke .in tho xhnrtnirn unci he knows that culled "Oregon systc It will come out of land productive live to see that the effects of single land not worthiest, Idle land. The argument that If the Idle land was subject to rent It would all be occu pled and Improved. How long have we been trying to gel people to take up Government land, plenty of which Is still to be had. where an absolute title is given by the Government for a few years residence on and Im provement of the same. Inducements of ownership are offered without rent. Imi't this better than Induce ments of tenancy with an uncertain rent, which If put In practice will hi based on Income and no sale value ever to exist. Will Oregon permit one class, con slstlug of the merchants, manufactur ers. Investors In buildings for rent railroads and other large corpora tlona to exempt themselves from tax ation by saddling the whole burden on the land owning class? Surely the laboring man, the small home owner and the farmer will not be misled into assisting such an unjust and inequitable law on our statute hooks If they do they will be the first to suffer from its effect. How much more extravagant will the office holding class become wheu u majority of the citizens can make the minority pay all the taxes? Under our system the majority always rules The single tux theories are all fulse as the cry that the majority can make no mlstuke, for what It does Is law. and law Is supposed to be Justice. The Oregon people perhaps do not realize that the Oregon system Is very thoroughly despised by tin special privilege beneficiaries and boss politicians of our great Eastern stales, who will use any means to discredit Its operation. I think this false doctrine of single tax Is one of their methods to turn tho better class of people 111 Oregon against our so lor we win NATURE'S ESSENCE. -Extracted From Forest Plants.

The very threat of It has diverted to other states hundreds of thousands of dol lars that would have been Invested here this year. We are away he hind our neighboring states In develop ment, while In natural resourcefl we are far ahead of them. What Is the reason? Is It because this Is a one town and one railroad ntnu?. Or has It been due In part to uncertainty on account of bad Initiative laws adopted and threatened, whereby one class or an Industry can legislate against another class or a competing Industry. The Kugue Hlver fish law and the threat of single tax are ex amples. If the people of Oregon could see clearly what effect these unjust fraudulent propositions have on tim welfare of the state, they would give the subsidized missionaries responsi ble for them a dose of tar and feath ers without delay.

Considerable business is still pass ing in the vicinity of Baker ami around Vale.

Two car loads weni out the Tirst of the week and six car loadH will he hauled out today. The wool clip this season promises to be heavy and an enormous amount will be ready for shipment before long, as l hi' various Docks throimhout the county are being shorn (tiite rapidly.

Now that we have a railroad it will not take very long to take out the wool, com pared with the former way of trans porting it out on wagons.
