O'CONNOR Corner Park and Oak St. Phone 2141 LA GRANDE - - OREGON La Grande. "Jan. 10. 1905 To the Editor I hear thit an effort is belna made to prevail on tha Count? Court to an- proprlate a considerable sum for the Lewis and Clark 8 bow at Portland It is a fact,' I believe, that this county's part of the 1500,000.00 ap propriated by tba legislature and which the people will be compelled to pay as taxes amounts to between f 20, 000 and $30,000. Pari of Ibis was paid last year and the remainder will be paid this year In my judgment this is all that this county ought to pay,. I ?ery much doubt whether tbe county will receive any . aubstantial benefit for this, and 1 think that no more, should be aeked or granted. I know that tba real estate men and boomers are making a great effort to get mora appropriated, but there are lateral good reasons why they should laM. ' In tba first place tha oounty court is not authorised to appropriate money for any auih purpose, and the warrant would be null and fold if they should attempt to appropriate money for that purpose, and ita pay mem could be enjoined, and tha members ol the court might be per- aooally liable for tba amount of . the pretended appropriation. Then we bare recently learned that this oounty is so badly indent that it cannot create any mote indebtedness until it pays what it now owes, or re duces iu created indebtedness to lest than 15,000. Tba whole debt le sup. posed to be over 1200.000. This is an enormous debt and the oounty court would be guilty of a plain violation of the constitution now to add to ihis great debt to aid the Portland show or aoy other. Tbe numbers of that court bare taken a tol.'Uin path to support tbe constitution . and tbev me eipcteJ not tofentisnally to violate this oatb. They - know that - tbe county it in debt for beyond tbe con stitutional limit and they knw that an appropriation of any sum what- aver for the Port end tbow would be contrary t the constitution and tbeir official oaths, and I hipe thai they will not violate tbeir oaths of offioe. Extremely high tares and a bau ab rupt coo aty will injure the oounty more than any number of shows can benefit it Then, officers are exneet- ed to obey tbe law and not violate it. It is about time that oonntv offioials were looking after the interests of the oounty and not increasing tbe county indebtedness and the rate of t xes. It is tbe duty of the oounty court to gel the oounty out of debt as soon as tbey can by tbe exercise of all reason able efforts. They should shut down on all "grafts" and all other expendi tures that are not compulsory. Tbe people of tha oounty know that the court has refused to make grants for road improvements on the ground that the court could noa legally in crease tbe oounty debt Can they in erease tbe oounty dedt to aid the Port land sbowf Common sense says em phatically, NO. An other matter that might be re ferred to, now that the legislature is in session, and lhatis that tbe county oourl should not permit any more "grafts" for 1 bbying to be impoeed on the county. It is time to' swear off on all such impt Billons on tbe tax payers. Junius . - - -- - -' j--. - Land Frauds The United States Grand Jury is again In session in Portland.
