his efforts to bringing forth some
plan that would make it possible

that he is a member of a farm
organization that embraces in its
membership some of the most ener­
getic producers of the Cottage
Grove section and other sections of
the state and that be has the en­
dorsement of that organization for
the office which he seeks.
Mr. Shumway’s words might eas­
ily have been taken from past
editorial comment in The Sentinel.

oft expressed here.
Economy in administration we
must have, certainly, but curtail-
ment of government activities
would find favor with few, while
the majority demand them, Taxes
always have gone up, and are like­
ly to go farther, as The Sentinol
and Mr. Shumway have said. The
time that has been wasted yelling
for lower taxes might have pro­
duced some plan that would give
* fairer distribution of taxes and
a greater ability to pay them.
