OREGON CITY COURIER, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1914.
A GREAT SCHEME
"You See" has New Idea to Procure
Necessary War Revenue
I have thoroughly made up my
mind that this temperance move that
is being agitated over the country,
and especially Oregon, if not of a
Socialistic nature, is a deep-laid plot
to give the Democratic administra
tion a black eye and the standpatters
a strangle hold on the reins of gov
ernment again, and I think at least
John Stark will argue with me when
he has time to digest my simple and
effective plans to help the Govern
ment out of the financial hole we
have got ourselves into.
We that is the government has
got to have money and anybody can
see it will not do to collect our debts
from the banks for they need it in
their business and besides, Mr. Wil
son says the people are loyal and
and anxious to help make up the 100
million wanted, and I am fully satis
fied it is going to be a pleasure to
assist. I do not think from the start
we have made that it is going to be
necessary to put stamps on potatoes
before we eat them if my plans are
carried out. I shall not go into min
ute uetans cut think any common
brain such as Underwood or Bryan or
maybe Stark, could work them out
when the general plan is outlined.
We that is t he government
struck the keynote to prosperity
when we made beer and perfumery
bear the brunt as revenue raisers.
Beer with the Cc discount for cash
will raise CO million at once. But
that is nothing to what it can be
made to do with a little boosting
All we that is the government
have to do is to offer a small reward
both to individuals, counties and
states consuming the most beer in the
shortest time. Now here is where
we show what a long head we have
got. Breweries will have to be im
mediately enlarged to supply the de
mand and it is going to take money to
do it.
But all they will have to do is to
go to the banks and draw on the 75
million we, the government, has on
deposit. AH the bankers will be
more than glad to assist the admin
istration to help bring back prosper
ity by loaning out their money for
182 percent and collecting the inter
est.
which this letter from Mr. Robbins
came out, there also came a letter
from F. W. Bates, in which he tries
to make out that some of my asser
tions, in regard to the $1500 exemp
tion measure, were wrong. Without
referring to the different paragraphs
that he objected to, I will just make
a few plain statements covering a
few remarks, that the paid were
wrong, to show that I was right.
Mr. Bates can't understand why I
think this bill is bad for the poor man
when he saves $208 in 16 eyars in
taxes, and in the same time I would
save $600. It is plain to see that
most all the poor man's saving in tax
es, is made in the last 6 or 8 years;
and that during all the forepart of his
time in home making, he had almost
no help at all, and right at the first
it worked right against him. Then
Mr. Bates claims that the poorer a
man is the more this bill would help
him. Let us see:
Suppose two men, each having a
piece of wild land, assessed at $1,000
one of the men has a family, and is
not able to make any improvement on
his place. His taxes are $25 each
year. The ottysr man has a good situ
ation, and is making ' good wages,
and is able to make $500 worth of
improvements each year. In three
years' time this last man has made
all the improvement necessary, to
get the full benefit of the exemption,
while the other man is paying out
$5 extra tax each year, just on ac
count of this bill, and is not getting
any exemption. Who is geting the
best of the deal?
Mr. Gill's argument with Mr
Cridge, on this bill, suits me fir
rate. It shows the straightforward
honest disposition of the man, and he
is a very safe man to stay by for
Governor.

I shll vote 355 NO. Because the
propised PRIMARY DELEGjATE
ELECTION BILL means a return to
the notoriously corrupt convention;
system. And it will be safe politics i
for the public to vote against every j
item of legislation proposed by the
group who favor so flagrant an at
tempt against Oregon popular gov
errnment. Hence I shall also vote
357 NO. j
On the other hand there are some
very meritorious measures proposed.
350 X Yes is worthy of note. The
State Senate is a sort of legislative
vermiform appendix that gives more
sue opposing it because it would per
mit the strongest political party to
elect all the legislature, then in the
net issue it objects that it would al
low the small parties "socialists and
prohibition, to nominate short legis
lative tickets, and obtain represen
tation in the house out of all propor
tion to their strength." Now it must
be a fearfully and wonderfully made
measure if it can enable the strongest
party in the state to manipulate things
entirely to its own advantage, and to
give the smaller parties representa
tion, far beyond their strength at the
same time. I think the Oregonian
has made me a convert to the meas
ure, and I am curious to see the thing
work. I am under the impression it
will seriously interfere with partisan
politics, and will play hob with all
the machines. When the average citi
zen has the privelege of voting for
but one representative he will think
more of the man than the party, and
it will "do things" to the. machine.
I shall certainly vote 332 YES for
State Prohibition. No state has ever
been hurt by prohibition. The Inter
national year book shows Kansas
ended 1912 (the last year reporting)
with a balance in the treasury of $1,
289,209, and a debt of only $370,000,
while wet Missouri, a state greatly
richer in natural resources, and with
just as good a people, had only $537
829 in the teasury, and $4,398,839 of
a debt. Since going dry property
values in North Dakota have increas
ed 1000 per cent. In Maine, once the
poorest state in the union, the depart
ment of agriculture report Maine far
mers the best off financially in New
England. In Kansas one man in five
ownes an automobile, in Missouri
only one in one hundred own an
automobile. Hundreds of factories are
locating in West Virginia since it
went dry. Leading business firms of
Oregon are working for a dry state.

be laid at its door. Only 26.2 per cent
of the population of the United States

portion way up near 100 per cent
showed very poor qualification for
the office he seeks, or he would be
careful to verify his figures. Of this
20.2 per cent most would not miss it.
The men who are raising the roar
about prohibition are the saloonn
grafters, who get more money with
less investment in that business than
they would in any other. The noise
than sounds like Eppstein, the Hop
Growers Association, etc., is merely
a roar of the booze trust. Hence let
us vote 332 YES.
W. T. Miliken.
Gives them a small
present with a strong string tied to
it and when they get something worth"
while, pulls it back with double com
pound interest attached, and gives
the whole thing to wealthy parasites.
Vote for the exemption measure and
come much nearer jusflce.
And the wealthy bunch are tired of
having their "Personal Liberty"
threatened by reform tax measures
so often and want it fixed so it will
take a two-thirds vote to reachthem.
This is quite a contract to the authors
of the exemption measure, who are
willing, if it carries, to give the
people two more chances to wipe it of
the books by a big majority vote.
The many poor people that the
Oregonian says will be injured by
the exemption why do they not tell
us who they are andwhere they are,
give us examples and why do not the
poor people themselves complain, and
give their percentage of exemption?
The Oregonian says the exemption
measure would only help the middle
class that is able to pay the tax as it
is. Yes, maybe we are able to pay
twice as much for a cow as others can
buy her for but somehow we do not
like to do it, neither do we like to buy
a cow and let some one else use the
milk at our expense.
If it was proposed to assess all
land alike, acre for acre, without re
gard to location, what a mighty howl
we would all raise, but personal prop
erty and improvements are assessed
without regard to location and be
cause we have become used to it,
some think it the only way and howl
against a change. Perhaps it is for
the same reason that a prisoner be
comes attached to his cell.
It is said the rich have the most
of the kind of property it is proposed
to exempt. Yes, but they have a
much greater proportion of the kind
that is left after the exemption is
made and that is where the shoe
pinches. That is the patriotic reason-
for the $100 contribution to beat the
change. What they will have left to
pay taxes on will be a much greater
proportion than the rest of us will
have left and they cannot hide it
and that will pinch too.
Well, I rest the case on the above
issue and hope the surtax will carry,
that the legalized booze business of
Oregon will get a solar plexus blow,
ditto for the disguised assembly bill.
hope U'Ren or Smith will get a
chance to use the sharp two-edged
sword on single item appropriations,

that Schuebel, Spence and other good
