BOSEBUWO, OBgQON, rRIPAVOCTOBEW 10. 1?2. PAKE R!X Taxes and the Governor Wlirn a candidate for the high oifice of governor bases his caiididurv on cerUiin claims end prorr.i.-es as to what he will do if elected, the public is entitled to have his claims analyzed and examined. In this campaign, Walter Tierce ha? pone about the country melo-drwnnlically tearins tax hills in two by way of illustrati;;;? v.liat lie v. iil do to taxes it elected. The voter then .should analyze the tax matter to the extent of becoming in funned as to just what part the governor plays in imposing or reducing taxes. In the first place, the voter should know that the total levy ill Oregon for 11)22 is ? lU,.7:;,;)'Jfi. This' is a reduction of over . 1.500,000 from last year, so that jt will bo seen the hii;h cost of government follow ing the war is r.lready receding. Of this V.CZ levy of -10 million, over "1 million was for county, city and school district purposes over which the governor could have no possible control whatever. Of the remaining 9 million for st.tte purposes, only million are tares over which the legislature has any dis cretion, and of this amount, only 2' ' million are for the ac tual expenses of state government and might therefore, in even the remotest degree, be charged to the methods em ployed by the governor in administering the .State's af fairs. In passing, it should be noted that this state levy is an increase of 41 per cent .since 19! (5 and not several hun dred iter cent, ns stated on various occasions by the demo cratic candidate. It should also be noted that less than half of this 11 per cent occurred during Mr. Olcott's ad ministration. This ability to keen down the cost of state government to so small an increase, when living expenses in the ordinary homo in the same period increased over 100 per cent, is n most creditable showing. MR. PIERCE'S TAX RECORD. It is proper at this point to examine Mr. Pierce's own record on taxes and see if past actions as a legislator square with his words. Of the ?n..T70,280 of stale taxes for 192. which in flucles the miliar taxo. MR. PIERCE SPECIFICALLY HAS APPROVED OK !? X.r.f; or 92 per cent. He had no chance at most of the other S per cent. Of the 1922 state taxes. Pierce introduced bills ac counting for ?1,129,12C or 15 per cent. In addition to this, he voted for tax bills introduced by others to the amount of S'1,11 1,109, and he has given his public npnroval on numberless occasions of measures pass ed nnco he was returned from th legislature causing taxes amounting to $1,020,801, making a total of state taxes approved bv Pierce of $K,!)G-I,0.'!8 or 92 per cent of the total 1922. There is no tolling how much of the re mainder he might have approved of if he had had a chance, and, it may be significant that the Mate taxes have de creased over 1 1 per cent since Mr. Pierce was retired from the State Senate. Mr. Pierce has nlwnya been a consistent lax booster. He voted against only three per cent; of nil the appropria tions of the 1919 session of the legislature and voted for all the Appropriations of the J 920 special session. ' " ' He voted for submission of $100,000 bond issue to build n new penitentiary. Mr. Oleolt, at no tax expense and with prison labor, has fixed up tho old penitentiary in excellent shape for another 25 years. Mr. Pierce introduced the bill into the legislature I ticmplinir money, notes junri mortgages from taxation. If this bill had carried, it would have increased the tax burden of the farmer. Mr. Pierce voted against accepting n gift of road ma chinery from the government. That machinery now amounts in value to ? 1,800,000. COVERXOR OI.COTT'S RECORD. The above are but a few of the extravagances of Pierce. Mr. Olcott on the other hand has conducted the business of the state in an economical, sane and business like manner. He has saved the State thousands of dollars because of his level headeilness and his intimate knowledge of state affairs, lie built a new Roys' Industrial School Pudding by diversion of a millagn fund and "therefore, without a single rent additional tax. lie has insisted upon development of the various state farms connected with tho state institutions till the present year shows the unprece dented ini-oin" from this source of $191, .111. He, is jio talker, no politician, no idle promisor and is not seeking re-election under false pretenses nor caterinir to prejudice, but is going to the people on his own splendid record con fident that if he can but get that record and Mr. Pierce's record before the voters of Oregon that he will be vindir rated on i lection day, Tuesday, Nov. 7th.
