February Farm Journal. 44 44444444444 The bill to prevent pay for those who circulate initiative und referen dum' petitions was killed by the legis lature. Tins may have been bused or sound judgment. The iueu was t thwurt measures to be presented to the people which money to pay a suf flicent number of circulators woule Always Insure. Thus only such bills ft jiad merit tg call people to S' ul Voluntarily would" be successful. There are two sides to this subject. The voter must respond to the addition;': duty Imposed upon him by our laws, und unless the individual voter doc measure up to this duty, he has no right to franchise whatever, dimply because a mnn with either a mistaken knowledge of existing conditions, o with sinister motives presents u pet I tinn you should not sign It simply to accommodate the man who asks you to do so. We have been doing this lr a very great measure for years and year, but until these new condition prevailed our petitions did not cover such far-reaching results us they do now. and unless we know what we are Ignlng we should withhold our sig natures. The voters of Oregon are In the limelight. We are being: watch .d by every state. If we act wisely we will be the means of g-eater powi l'lng placed In the hrin ' of th. vo;-e-s generally.

Tag duy with Its excitement, Its hard work, Is amusement und best of all. Its propensities' to accumulate money will make Its debut In La Oiande one week from tomorrow. As announced recently, the ladles of the M. K. church will conduit it and the proceeds are to go to the new M. E. church fund. Glaring success branded Tag day In Pendleton recently for the benefit of the public library, and there Is no reason why shouldn't here a week from Saturday, for the amounts collected from each individual need not be large, as the field cove-ed Is extensive. All have read of Tag day but few have actually been face to face wlh one. It Is a general hold-up day on a diminutive scale. The (icncnil Plans. The general plan of attack of Tag day is to send forth laborers and get the money. The detailed plan hy which the general results are obtained is to send 1 no agents through the city, residence and business district alike, and every man, woman, boy, girl or child which any one of the agents meet will be promptly accosted for a donation. While the victim Is pro ducing the coin, the agent attaches a tag properly labeled on the person of I lie one giving. These tags read "New M. K .('hureh Fund." nnd once pos sessed with one of these cards that In dividual Is forever Immune from fur ther attack, unless of his own volt-, Men he cares to purchase another tag. The purchase price Is anything from n dime up. Mi most instances the do nations will be small, but though the Virvest Is amall the reapers are many. These 100 agents will he assigned to certain portions of the cily. where every person able to walk Will be ac ,osted some time during the duy. lllg llliinor for A'cnts. At the dinner hour the dinner horn will blow and the agents will assem ble at some home ti be decided on la,-, ter, nnd there refresh themselves for the afternoon attack. In this way. amusement wor the workers enters ( into the contest. Similar efforts havej Invariably brought great results wher-j ever t; led. . ; .'lan.v liny tmcii. At Pendleton, where a Tag day was recently conducted, many bought sev eral tags, and ere night, resembled ni trunk checked to Europe. While this Is not required, no one will escape who does not carry that piece of .ag hoard. The event will be advertised so well that eevry man and woman children, too will bu familiar with what la going on that day, that the ap proach of a handful of tags will be the signal to "dig." It makes little difference who you are, the agents are not respecters of persons. 1-W tw tliurch. The receipts of the day will he used to swell the new M. K. chureh fund.
