TH IS C O M PA N Y p o sto ltlce at SECTION Portland Oregonian: What is called the Lever law. its author being Congressman I-ever o f South Carolina, becomes operative on the first day o f July, it having passed Congress and received the President’s approval last week. Not for many years has Congress passed a bill o f such great benefit to the agricultural communities o f the country as the Lever bill, In its entirety it appropriates the sum o f $23.120,000 for the furthering o f agricultural experimental work and the teaching o f home economics in the various states; but a state to receive its proportion o f the appropriation must add to it a like sum. For the fiscal year beginning July 1 each state receives $10.- 000, provided the Governor o f such state agrees to the terms. which agreement must be ratified at the next ession o f the Leg- islature. That makes the first appropriation amount to $480,- 000. To this is added the second year $600,000. making a total o f $1,080.000. then to this sum is added $500,000 each year, mak- ing the final appropriation on the ninth year $4.580.000. or the total as given above fo r the nine years. But remember, the states to receive this must add to it a like amount. A fte r the first $10,000 goes to a state each year the balance is distributed pro rata among the states according tq the rural population thereof. Under such provision Oregon will receive .00739ths o f the appropriation, which will amount, under the la.-t census, to $228.932.00 fo r the nine years, the amount for the first year being $10,000 and for the ninth and for the final year $40,299.00. The voters o f Redmond gave James Withyoombc Republican candidate for nomination for Governor. a nice vote I h<' " he would be a good man for the olfice and that this set tion the state would get a square ileal if he was elected The voters in Marion county turned down by a vote of o\et 2 to 1 the proposition to bond the county in the sum of $8» i «. in » o for gi*od roads. If any county in the state need* g"«d rou W. i! sure is Marion county. A town divided against itself surely must be retarded in its growth, and eventually go down to ruin and decay. Still in al most every town is to be found a certain class who, because they cannot have A L L the business and control A L L the affairs o f that community, try to wreck any enterprise that tends to build up the affairs o f the town and surrounding country.

I f the economic situation suggested in the above statement is not the cause, perhaps it may be found in the long and rigorous winters characteristic o f this section as compared with those in the leading farming districts o f the United States. A newspaper’s advertising columns are open for advertising from all classes o f people and from all sections, providing the ad vertising is not objectionable. Circulation is what makes adver tising valuable to the advertiser. The Spokesman has the circu lation that reaches all parts o f the county, and is therefore a val uable advertising medium, and that is the reason why live busi ness houses in Redmond and other towns in the county use its columns. l'h«> Redmond Pharmacy tin* put m thej Two doctors aro nominated for Governor This money will be expended through our agricultural college, but it in nowise interferes or curtails the work now carried on jointly by the agricultural colleges and the Government in the work at established experiment stations. That work will go fo r ward as heretofore. As the Legislature o f Oregon expected the enactment o f some such Federal law, provision was made at the last session for the appropriation required from this state.

The water stealer and the water hog are two o f the worst nuisances any community can have. Redmond has one water stealer who will get himself in bad one o f these days. He tried to keep up his practice o f stealing water from the city until he was brought up with a sharp turn. Now he has turned his atten tion to stealing water from the irrigation company, and The Spokesman is informed that if he persists in this practice he will be brought to face a criminal charge.
