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

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.
Redmond used to have big turnouts at baseball games. This
year is different. The games are played here Sunday afternoons

asking fo r a certificate which permits the return o f household e f
fects to the United States. 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.

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.
