Editor Statesman i If the public is to believe what it reads in some of the news papers since the election is over, we are to expect that this over whelming victory for the republi can party is to start in with a house cleaning, by giving many successful candidates unlimited authority to do. about as they please, during their tenor of of fice. I gather as much from the announcement from the press, that the new legislators are to come to Salem With their war pants on to fight Governor Pierce to a finish.: Or are 'these newspapers publishing this pro paganda for news? There are surely reasons for publishing this news, and why couldn't it be for the purpose of lining up our Gov ernor as a stand-patter? I bave been taught that there were only two sides to every question, a right side and a wrong side, but as I see no end to this boasting and . bragging in the republican papers, it makes me think there are four sides, for there is no end to this propaganda, and it would require four sides to give it any standing at all, even among the victors themselves. -, It is up to the republicans to take note of the fact, that Oregon has always been a republican state and no man was ever elected . to the office of governor without the votes of republicans. The demo crats are in the minority and no candidate for governor could be elected on the, democratic ticket alone. If a democrat governor should hew to the line and conduct his office to the honor and glory of the democratic party as the re publicans do when a republican is elected, a recall would be started. and the governor would lce his seat. . After all , is said one must ad mire the good republican lawyers, doctors, real estate men, jewelry store men, merchants and others who deem it a privilege to spend their own money to be elected as members of the state legislature and then come to Salem and pay their board and room for. about I forty days, then work hard day and night for the sum of $3 per day. As a democrat I believe that when the history of Oregon Is i written the name of every leg islator who served Oregon for just $3 per day will bq recorded as contributing their best efforts in shaping Oregon's destiny. "I trusts that democrats? will do all that is possible to assist the re publicans in fulfilling their obli gations to our people, the demo crats, , let us cheer-them up for they have a hard row to hoe. WILL E. PUItDY. would be practical in administration. "The rate could be $1 per thou sand cigarettes. This wduld be one-third of what Uncle Sam is now collecting. ' On a package of ten, Uncle Sam collects three cents and Oregon, could collect one cent. On a package of 20, the ordinary size. Uncle Sam is collecting six cents and Oregon could collect two cents. On a package of 10D, or an' unbroken cartoon, the revenue could be. in proportion just a third of what Uncle Sam collects. "Gros3 volume of cigarette busi ness in Oregon wholesale amounts to between S4, 000, 000 and $5,000,000. : Most of this goes to the manufacturer, as the wholesaler only makes about 2 per cent to 5 per cent. In his turn,. tb.e, retailer makes very lit tle about 15 per cent. With a stamp to affix, the retailer would have to make a little.; more than he makes now, owing to the nugl ance and time involved in affixing the stamps' every time he broke a cartoon. This would result in the retail price of cigarettes being about 18 cents for an ordinary package instead of 1 5 cents. "Most consumers would not complain, for the cigarette con sumer realizes there is -always danger of his being shut off alto gether, and would rather pay a higher price for the sake of gain ing the good will of so important a factor in framing public senti ment as the property taxpayer. . , "It looks ; very much like a cigarette tax for Oregon. And why not?" , Cigarette Tax For More Revenue (Continued from page 1) levying the tax could call a special election to vote upon the referen dum.

The statement that the concrete had been poured sev eral days before and had set suffic iently to be self supporting was incorrect, for as a matter of fact the pouring of concrete had been started but an hour and a half be fore the accident occurred. There fore It was not the concrete which gave way. . but the forms Into which the concrete -"was being poured. ., Also the statement that a plumber and an electrician" nar rowly escaped being killed was in correct, as there was not a plumb er on the job at the time, and the electrician on the work had no work to do under this framework. .The accident was a regrettable one, inasmuch as it has delayed work on the, building and has caused the contractors some loss. This new building is being con structed along the most modern lines in ; every respect, and the work to date by the contractors has beep very satisfactory to the architects in charge. - .

Presbyterian Contest Early in October the Presbyter ians offered a prize of $10 for the best essay on why. they should build a new church. A number of essays were submitted and the committee judged the one below to be the best: . . " . i 'Why should we haTe a new church?" I would say. "Why shouldn't we have a new church?" We consider ourselves one of the most prominent churches of Sa lem. Most of the other churches have built -or are building new buildings.' Are they better , than we? Do they love their Saviour more? . - What Is the matter with us? We all have nice homes.' Are we self ish or should we have a better house than the one in which we worship God? Are our homes crowded like our church? Are you ashamed ,of yourhome when you entertain, because'it is over crowd ed? Have' you so many in your family that, they have no place to seat themselves when' they come fnto the house? Maybe you don't realize It, but our church has such a large family, that it could by no means scat them all, if they should all come atonce..; - - . It has been said. "The building a jnan lives in. is an. Index to his character." Does our church building reflect our church char acter? Do you want it to? ! think our church character has grown and should grow mora. What do you Jhink? Let us all work together; to build a church, that we will be proud of; one that will reflect such a character that will win others to Christ. We need consecrated -prayer, and money to build our new church. You can do your bit. What will it be? , GENEVIEVE MULKEY J - Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. AV Muikey. South Twelfth street.
