In justice to Forbes it should be
said that those who a$e in power in
the legislative bodies of the state
recognize him to be one of the
ablest of their number. It is
whispered that he may have the
speakership of the house for the
next session if he wishes that honor.
In justice to the man and in the
interests of this part of Oregon he
should be returned to the House by
unanimous vote at the expiration of
his present term.

Tax Paying Time
Last week a well known catalogue
house shipped 70,000 pounds of
catalogues to Roseburg, Oregon,
bv freight, from which point they
were mailed out by parcel post to
all parts of Oregon. The cata
logues were a work of art and cost
anywhere from 75 cents to $1.75
each to deliver to the customers.
They weighed approximately two
pounds each, and in the one ship
ment above mentioned there were
more than 35.000 catalogues, the
cost of which delivered to the cus
tomers would total some $40,000.
This amount represents a part of
the profits these people realize from
the sales made in communities just
like this one throughout the state, ;
which profit belongs to the local
merchant. Have you paid yourj
catalogue assessment yet? It is a
tax that leaves Crook county never
to return. It contributes not one
cent to the road, school or other
funds of the county. Can we af
ford it?
