LET THE GALLED JADE WINCE
the men who own the fish Wheels and other fixed gear in
fipper Columbia river, and the few employees and others
tly depending upon them, are making a great outcry
the failure of their efforts for the repeal of the law
jd by the people last November, or the postponement of
lime when the law shall take effect
And this is but natural. "Let the galled jade wince;
prie of these fellows asserts in a communication in the
ll.-j T,,n1 Inct avoninir friar a vntp nf the TeODle
ibuaiiu vuuiuai ui co a.fe - -
en at the present time would be overwhelmingly in favor
he fish wheels, etc.
The wish is father to the thought. Or he is talking through
hat.
The fact is. the people at the polls will make a clean sweep
kll fixed ff ear; above and below tide water, if they ever get
hanci-to express themselves, and are properly informed.
Ttfeyjvgil 'cpfnpletely restore the ancient and natural
;ht "of fishery to the people, where it of right belongs. The
,h in Oregoon's streams belong to all the people, and not to
eW persons unjustly licensed to enjoy special privileges. .
The bisr thine in Oregon is to maintain hatcheries, both
r Commercial and game fish, in order to maintain and
'crease the fish of all kinds in our streams. That is good
isiness. It is honest. It is just.
This thing must be pursued till all our streams are cleaned
3; and carried over into Washington, to the end that no one
; allowed to commercialize Columbia river fishing to the
fetriment of the commercial fishing industry.
UNIFORMITY AND THE MILLAGE TAXES
The Oregon legislature at its recent session passed a bill,
Hth an emergency clause, which is now a law, giving the
tate tax commission supervisory control over the assessment
nd tax laws of the state, county assessors and county boards
f equalization
The, purpose being to secure uniformity of assessments
d taxation
And it ia said this will raise the taxable property of the
tate $100,000,000; some say $200,000,000.
(The state board of equalization consists of the governor,
secretary pf state and state treasurer.) ::
" The legislature also passed a law limiting the amount of
millage tax receipts in any year to the amount received the
year before plus 6 per cent. The bill for this law made a 3
per cent limitation of increase in any one year. It was raised
by amendment to 6 per cent. .
. This applies to all millage taxes
And there are many of them, besides the ones for the
University of Oregon and the Oregon Agricultural college and
the market roads, etc.; including those of counties, cities,
school and port districts, etc.
This does not mean that the payments for millage taxes
will be increased 6 per cent, each year over the amount paid
the jrear before
It means only that such payments shall be limited to 6 per
cent over the amounts received the year before.
. With a $200,000,000 raise in assessed valuatioons this
year, the increases in millage tax payments might in some
cases conceivably, be a great deal more than 6 per cent but
for the '6 per cent limitation; but the average increase in
future years may be much less than 6 per cent, for the rate
is fixed ; that is in each case the millage rate is fixed.
, FLEXIBLE TARIFF UPHELD
1Our Oregon cherry growers will be interested in knowing
that the principle of the flexible tariff has been upheld by the
United States court of customs' appeals, affirming the favor
able decision of the United States customs court at New
Nork : '
The item in question being a shipment of barium dioxide,
the duty on which had been raised from j4 to 6 cents a pound
by the president, on the prSer showing of needed additional
protection against foreign importations;; . t
The contention of the attorneys for the importers was that
the .provision for the flexible tariff violates the principle in
law'lhat a delegated power cannot be delegated-
And the opinion of the customs court of appeals finds that
the provision "is not so uncertain of administration asltd
- -" " .... , .-.vJJ, i ?ii;w cliie?
executive but is, in that respect, a valid' exercise of j the
constitutional power-of congress, 'f t, i !
The Case will no doubt , be appealed to the United States
supreme court, but it is the opinion of the ablest attorneys in
the country that the decision of the customs court of appeals
will be upheld.
This involves the power of the president, upon a proper
showing of needed additional protection, to raise the duty on
cherries 50 per cent, or from 2 to 3 cents a pound.
The flexible tariff principle is a just one
. And congress ought by all means to go further and set
the precedent of amending the tariff rates a schedule or an
item at a time; and still hold the flexible sections intact. J
Then this country would' have the tariff on a business
basis, where it has always belonged, and there would be ended
forever the periodical distrubing of business by the occasional
mulling over of the whole tariff law, taking months on end,
and keeping the men engaged in the industries of the country
on nettles, from capitalists to laborers, and retarding pro
jgress in our industries in many direct and indirect ways.
The flexible sections of the tariff law contemplate reduc
tions as well as raises in rates of duty on imported articles,
upon proper showings being made to the. president.
;! Bits For Breakfast
The United States produces about 150,000 tons a year
of dried beet pulp, but there is a demand for about 45,000
tons more, which is brought from Canada, Italy, Jugoslavia,
Poland and other countries. This valuable by-product of the
beet sugar industry will come as a money maker for our
Willamette valley farmers when they go to raising sugar
beets ; when we get factories and the beet sugar industry is
developed, as it will be some time, and ought to be soon. And
it will be a greater money maker when fed to stock on the
farms than when sold on the general market. The indirect
benefits of the beet sugar industry to any section are about
equal to the direct benefits, on money returns, from the sale
of the beets. '

There is a new- avenue suggest

sending them frozen. A good
idea. There cannot be too many
marketing outlets. Canned prunes.
prunes in confections, and in every
other possible way, ought to be
pushed. But the big thing in the
marketing of prunes is in drying
them. Dried prunes are staple.
There is room for all we can send
to market, in this way. What is
needed is stabilization through
100 per cent coopertaion; or as
near 100 per cent as is possible.
There Is nothing the matter with
