Padlocks -aot-p ri M : The death of Turner Oliver, which occurred last evening', brings to the minds of Eastern Oregon people the career of this man who proudly called Union county home during his lifetime. . Reared at Summervil!e on the old Oliver homestead, he strove along with other boys of his time to get an educa tion and become an attorney, which he did. As a lawyer of the earlier days he was thoroughly successful, and not ; inly did he appear in some of the heaviest litigation of, this part of the sste, but he took a prominent part in i politics of Oregon for narjr years. Being a Democrat his j political career eiAed ar.d flowed with the success or fail-; ure of his prv" in n overwhelmingly Republican state, j Hut nevertfceSes, Tanx-r liver was for many years quite; prominent a s-tte f j Ttry t y-sce of lw he accepted an appoint-j toect EZiSfT sie Vjsc- t.rnir:i!xlion with the Federal i Jar A i I So:e Jivod there for several years.'

Local officials will tell us the gov ernment taxes are high. The fact Is, every branch of . government ts$i from top to bottom Is at fault.

We havi gone wild, on taxutlon and we have let a lot of weeds grow up. It Is twin to pull them out' and get back to where people can pay their Iuxch without such heavy burduns. The Mellon proposition cut. o.'f 1350.000.000. Statetaxes cam bo reduced and county and city taxes can bo. It Is up to us to see that the taxing bodies all reduce.

They , pot only a measly pint of ly.w, provir.x them to either pt-or searchers or that the party i on the square. ' Anyway, it wasn't the Jxx.ze that raised the trouble in this instance, it was the hunt for the looze, and poor o'd Cleaver is now on the jrrill riKht. Iloth the big daily newspapers came out the following day in Portland with double leaded editorials telling something alniut "a man's home is his castle" and quoting a supreme judge or two on the subject. Then followed sharply written paragraphs in which Cleaver, the governor and the whole dry clement who make a practice of .searching for booze were given tha thirty-third degree in newspaper lashing. Someone very unkindly said the searchers were getting too close to the boys and some kind of a roar had to be raised to ( stop 'em before "they broke in on the private stocks. In , other words, several fellows have been unkind enough to intimate that officers are doing fine so long as they catch the Wops and the other foreigners, or jail a nigger, or run down u fanner who may have made a few jugs for the ready market v hen wheat, unci hogs were hard to sell, but stay a way. from Quality Hill, you detectives and tl.-uth hounds, for the atmosphere is not good I'cr you where tho private stocks aro kept. ,i There may be something to this and there may not be. We do not attempt to argue the case or care much either way. But the point that is of interosH is the constant herculean effort being used to enforce an amendment to , the constitution which should be violated no more than l'ny of the other amendments. What's the matter with the Kighteenth Amendment, that it requires such vast sums of money to enforce and such armies of men and women? The answer is plain, rhere is nothing1 wrong with the amendment, it is the V'fiople who refuse to bo governed by it. No one can tell how long this booze hunting epoch will last, but while, she docs last it must be admitted she is a humdinger, and murder and arson' must' lake the second page of the newspapers for the bootli'ggers and tho Qual ity Hill boys and the state sleuth hounds use all the space 03 the first page of the newspapers. .I'..T AMt llll'W i.Ul 1, 'HIM' of thr old ;tn who rouhln't ak'! o'clock on Hunilny :olds and jypppc. the fewjr; stop :hes, pride re- 25c .
