OREGON CITY COURIER, FRIDAY, NOV. 29
LIBRARY REPORT. ,
Annual Report and Statement of
City Library Association.
The securing of $12,500 from
the Carnegie Library F'und for
the erection of a building in Ore
gon City was the most important
thing accomplished in the year
just closed. For this accomplish
ment Oregon City is deeply in
debted to Mr. B. T. McBam. Mr.
McBain spent much time and
labor, not only in securing the
fund for the building and sub
mitting plans to the Library
Board and Mr. Carnegie's secre
tary but in procuring a suitable
site upon which to erect the build
ing. .
Another step in advance was
taken in putting a trained librar
ian in charge of tho library. Miss
Holmes' training and experience
fit her to do such excellent work
that our library may for efficiency
be' among the best in- the State,
even though our funds do not per
mit us to spend a large amount
for new books. A small library
well administered may do much
more in an educational way than
one of many hundreds of volumes
poorly administered.
The number of members has de
creased slightly in tho past year,
some of our former contributors
feeling that they could no longer
pay $12:00 a year as dues though
they are still interested in the
work tho library is doing. We
have remaining 22 members with
a monthly income of $31.00 from
dues.
As the financial report will
show the library has a balance on
hand of $1,133.56 with all its
bills paid up to Nov. 1st.
The financial report is as fol

The Old, Old Story
A couple of months ago a
cranky sort of an old man came
into thi office as mad as a bull
hornet and "stopped his paper."
We have frequently met him on
the streets since that time and it
is very amusing to us to note the
look of suprise.on the old fellow's
face that we are in existence re
gardless of the fact that ho "stop
ped his paper." Some day, and it
won't be very long either, that
poor old fellow will turn up his
toes. His spiteful old heart will
be still for-ever. Neighbors and
friends will follow his lifeless
clay out to the cemetary and lay
him ito rest among the flowers. An
obituary will appear in these col
umns telling what a kind father,
good neighbor.and benevolent cit
izen he was which lie the re
cording angel will kindly overlook
for charity s sake and in a short
time he will be forgotten. As he
lays out there in the cold grave
yard, wrapped in silent slumber of
death, ho will never know that the
last kind words ever spoken of
him was by the editor of the paper
he "stopped."

Hut to increase and prosper, you
must tell many about your bus

It isn't enough to tell that you

Thero must be a reason why many

Tell them that reason in stipple

Make the story interesting by

Then, if you have honest goods

SINGLE TAXER IS
WELL SATISFIED
PEOPLE DID NOT LET GO OF
THEIR POWER
And When Fright Wears Off They
Will Use Reason
. .Portland, Oregon, Nov. 26, 1912
Editor of the Courier:
Out of the initiative grabJbag
we will get something pleasant,
and something. not so desired as
we may wish.
The insistant manner tho peo
ple of Oregon have of doing busi
ness according to their own under
standing of things is disconcert
ing to those wishing to hang onto
any special privilege or graft, or
to return to any form which they
have been driven.
As a single taxer I am better
satisfied than might be supposed
from first glance at the returns.
There is no more tax on house
hold furniture. That is a relic of
the past along with the infernal
poll tax thanks to tho single
taxcrs. This indicates that the
people would exempt more labor
values if given time to think over
the proposition. Having wiped
$12,000,000 of household furni
ture from the tax rolls with very
little excitement or discussion
they might be induced to wipe say
$25,000,000 more. There being
32,000 voters in Oregon who can
not be scared by flapping confisca
tion blankets in their faces and
loud yells of "single taxi It will

your lives I" Perhaps after 32,000
more get, over their scare they
will come back and see what and
who scared them and where the
napping and yells came from. A
scared voter may not stay scared.
Remember that, ye hirelings of
Plutocracy and plunder. If he
once gets to thinking and reason
ing the flapping and yelling will
not disturb him so easily. And
the single taxer appeals to the
thinking and reasoning part of
humanity and not to fears and
superstition.
Then we have the initiative un
impaired. The slickest put up
measure the corporation lawyers
could frame alter months of
siuuy. nacKeo Dv n entv nf mnnov
literary ability and eloquence, all
"men 10 scare, 1001 or Mind the
people. They picked out the
numbers 311 and 323 and voted
very well considering the decep
tive title and the deceptive word
ings of the measures.' The evils
complained of mostly by the
corporation thugs and journals
will disappear as we become ac
cuslomed to swinging the initia
tive club. We will sign petitions
more carefully and understand
ing. We will find big business
less inclined to put up measures
like the fake majority rule admo
nitions, and we will get out of the
way a number of propositions we
are not able as yet to agree upon.
For instance, the matter of "votes
for women" U not going to be on
the ballot any more. Settled rightl
We will place measures on the
ballot in good time, and not rush
them on al tho last minuto. We
will be better able to size up the
true sources of support and op
position to any given measure as
we learn from experience. We will
have impressed it upon the minus
of tho leaders of various progres
sive movements to cut out tne
trash, word simply, propose one
thing at a time, and above all
make a proposed measure short.
Thi will apply to single taxers as
well as others needing this lesson
Some of the measures defeated
will come up again in probably
modified form. Some of them will
not. Some of the measures pass
ed this last time may do some
harm, but nothing verydoep.
What the next game to do away
with the initiative will be will de
velop as the legislature drawa to
a close of its session. But if any
body thinks that the repeal of
county option in taxation killed
single tax" they have another
think coining. If has more lives
than a cat in Oregon, and is
flourishing elsewhere, any way.
As long as the initiative exists
in Oregon we will have the ques
tion of equity in taxation before
us, for we all know that the pres
ent system is unjust and unright
eous. We will mend or end it when
a majority of u are wise enough
not to scare easily when land mon
opolists and tax dodgers shake

PEOPLE CAN HULE ' ,
Last Election Showed Their Judg
ment on Measures
Oregon City, Rt. 2, Nov. 25,
1912
Kditor courier: . .
As tho returns from the elec
tion are pretty well in. 1 want to
speak of a few things in connec
tion with the result of the people s
intelligence and judgment that is
shown by the returns. Judge
Lowell, in the Daily Journal of the
19th inst., advocates restricting
the initiative, so that not more
than two constitutional amend
ments and not more than three
laws at any one election shall ap
pear on tne oaiioi. now 1 am
is en mat mis wouiu ue
unsatisfactory to the people of
the state, and in place of being the
means of preserving the initiative
it would simnly kill it, and it
would be a worse blow on the
initiative than the majority rule
IH have heen. There Will be
no trouble about the people voting
a lonar ticket, if the intention of
the bills are made plain so mat
anvhndv can understand inem,
and if they are not made plain
vou may expect them to bo de
feated. I don't think t took me
over five minutes to mark my bal
int. in the booth. I had it all pre
pared on a sheet of paper before
I went to the election, and all I
had to do was was just to coqy it
and I look for the ballot to get
shorter every election, when we
quit monkeying with single tax
and get the road question settled,
the principal bone of contention
will be settled.and our ballots will
be apt to shorten up. I was sur
nristed at the intelligence and good
iudument shown by tho mass of
the people in the way they cast
their voles In the last election and
we will keep getting better every
election, and the women are tak
ing right nolo 10 inrorm mem
selves in regard to state and nat
ional affairs, so as to be prepared
to cast an Intelligent vote. I
have not seen a more intelligent
and sensible article on single tax
than was written ny a laay in me
Daily Journal. This single tax
agitation that the Fels bunch
spent over $30,000 on was the
only thing that caused the repeal
of the county option bill, No. 308
and 309. This bill we really need
ed and would have kept, had it not
been for the uncertainty or iana
valuations caused by this single
lax agitation, and the repealing of
this bill was anout me saresi way
to put a quietus to it. Let the peo
ple vote on tho laws they want,
they are perfectly safe,
Very truly yours

George Hioinbotham.
WHO GRANTS THIS POWER
Who Permits One Man to Usurp
Powero of Court
Editor Courier:-
In the recent campaign Mr.Taft
was duly accredited with being
me trust candidate. We all re
niemner when Mr. JJallinger was
appointed Secretary of the Inter
ior, also later how Mr. Pinchot
was thrown out and after came
the Alaska scandal.
Now comes this new Secretary
01 tne interior, Mr. tisner, au
pointed by Mr. Taft and in the
Oregonian of the 21st. and threat
ens the water power corporations.
He threatens to take away their
license to protect the consumer.
What a change since the elec
tion. It is supuosed Mr. Fisher
gets his instructions from Mr.
1 an. rroiu wnence aoes Mr.
Taft get his instructions?
Now listen Mr. Fisher savs if
these corporations take their case
into the courts he will revoke
their license.
He also says if they udnertake
to go to , the Federal Courts
claiming confiscation, they will
nave their license revoked.
Mr. Taft seems to have recent
ly lost all confidence in not only
our siaie courts, dui tnose or the
federal uovernment also.
from this I would Drosume he
would favor the recall of judges.
Our courts have been the sub
ject of a great deal of ridicule of
late, hut this to my mind is the
worst of all.
Another thinar to nonder on is
whence comes this mighty power
of one man to annul all court
decrees and confiscate the pro
perty ofthe water power corpora
tions? .
Did this Secretary of the In
terior get his Dosition bv vonr
vote? No. He is under no obliga
tions to the Deonle and nin hun
dred ninety-nine people out of one
inousana do not know who is
Secretary of the Interior. Has he,
or has he not too much power for
one man. Suppose he should use
this power against the common
people. I have just read in a Kan
sas paper of a scheme by our
Unijed States Attorney General
to procure false testimony against
an editor of this Kansas paper and
from the evidence Mr. Taft was
aware of what was being done.
The Kansas paper caught their
foul" and exnosed the srhemn
before the court got into action
I do not wonder now al Mr. Taft
and Mr. Fisher losing confidence
in our courts.
