According to the Eastren Clackamas News it costs the farmers of that

The population of Oregon I less

area I ninety five thousand square

bin cd area of tho states of Now York
and Pennsylvania, with over eighteen

ble lands l)ln Idle and thousand of
acre of Irrigated lands on the market.
Alt subdivisions of the state, such
as counties, cltlca and school districts,
can bond themselves and many of
them are now bonded to tho limit
Therefore, to provide for stute bonds
would simply amount to rebondlng
tho same property and adding to tho
already excesslvo burden of luxation.
The state of Oregon Is one of tho
few states which has no bonded In
debtedness. In case tho constitution
is amended whereby we ran bond for
one purpose It will not be long until
It Is bonded for many other purposes
and once the bars are thrown down
it will be but a few years until we
have tens of millions of dollars worth
of stute bonds, which will add greatly
to our already high taxes and will not
be conducive to good results.
Section 20, article 4 of the stuto con
stitution provides that "every act shall
embrace but one subject, and matters
properly connected therewith, which
subject Khali bo expressed In the title."
This constitutional provision was
Intended to protect the members of
tho legislature, and on Initiative bills,
the general public from having to vote
for a bill or appropriation which they
do not endorse, In order to vote for
ono ln which they are In favor, or. In
other words, to keep from putting a
"rider" on a good measure.
Irrigation and ilruinuKc, being tho
two methods of reclaiming waste
lands, could properly be Included In
ono measure, but rural credits, hav
ing nothing in common with tho other
two subjects, should not bo Included
in the bill.
I believe in some system of rural
credits and think I am entitled to tho
prlvllcgo of voting on that measure
without having to vote for bonding tho
state for Irrigation and drainage.
which I am not in favor of at this
time.

Upon this also he has apparently changed his mind.
SAVES TRAVELING
"I don't belive in banks' say Mr Grouch,
they don't do me any good." Perhaps not
but we would like to gee him run down to
Washington to get his pension check cash
ed or to New York or San Francisco when
he is lucky enough to receive a check on
one of those places. Maybe he'll sell a
horse to a man in a neighboring town and
receive a check in payment. Did you ever
stop to think that if it were not for this
bank you would have to be on the road
half the time going after money or taking
money some place? We make no charge
for cashing checks.

O. W. Eastiiam.
Say to your readers for me, that I want my friends nnd acquaintances
and all the other fellows' friends and acquaintances to decide the real iss 'C,
which is not, who is a "Rood fellow" or a personal friend ; hut instead, wl.n
ill give to the public that employs him, untiring effort and the best and most
satisfactory service.
This year, as a fair estimate, the ounce will cost between $5000 nnd
$6000. The amount should be $2100 and no more; and if the district attor
ney, under the new arrangement, i going to spend the public money like a
drunken sailor, I favor going back right now to the former plan of one such
official for four counties.
I I he expense of the office will be just S2100 if I am on the job. I will
expect to retain the confidence of the county court and other county officials;
and succeeding in this, pussy-footed sleuths of the Lcvings type will not un
load their "green goods" and "gold bricks" on the taxpayers at $2000 per
package.
1 In my opinion it is the duty of the District Attorney, though not required
by law, freely to serve and advise those needing counsel in legal matters and
lacking mcan9 with which to employ an attorney. They should be made to
feel heartily welcome and that the community pays the bill as a part of the
liberal salary attached to the office.
All moral forces may count on me to join hands with them to make use
ful citizens instead of confirmed criminals out of young offenders. Our penal
institutions are filling up with boys, and for this regrettable condition public
prosecutors bear half the responsibility. A deep concern for wayward boys
and girls may disqualify me in the eyes of some who hold very severe ideas 0
justice. I would be the last to close the door of hope on tlicm.and cannot
ixpect support that is not given with the understanding that, in such matters
my duty will be to save and not to destroy.
I have carefully considered the grave responsibility of the office, and have
faith enough in myself to feel that if I am chosen for the place and given such
great opportunity for the accomplishment of good, no power on earth can
make me disloyal to the trust.
