With LaGuardia, New York as yell-leader, the bi-partisan coalition of insurgents proceeded tear to shreds the revenue measure which the committee " had recommended after prolonged hearings. The rebellion had two objectives, first to soak the rich; and second to re ' lieve the "masses", the voting masses, by striking from the bill the sales tax on manufactures. The first objective was I accomplished by putting jackscrews under the surtax rates land hoisting them to 65 on incomes in the high brackets, compared, with 20 now. Today the fate of the sales tax provision win be decided. : The country , need not waste particular sympathy on the glutted rich with incomes of five millions or ever. There are very few of them left, and the legalized highjacking of their fortunes by taxation will yield very little to balance a . budget with yawning voids of some two bill tons between rev enues and expenditures. If we grant that these enormously wealthy, people are not entitled to their wealth, mere, high taxation does not solve the problem. Mal-distribution of wealth is sot adjusted by government's reaching in and stripping the rich. The excessive profits deserve to be dis tributed to the employes or to the consumers in reduced prices rather than split with the government. , . ; So far as the sales tax is concerned business interests do not like it, because it adds to the cost of doing business and each business feels it will have to absorb the tax. In the present glut of goods there are comparatively few manufac turers who can add the tax to selling prices and pass it along. Or if it is passed along it becomes pyramided, each link in the chain to untihnate consumer adding a percentage to the amount invested in the original manufacturer's tax. ' ' But the federal government has to have money. If it , took all the earnings of those with incomes in the highest v brackets it still would be short hundreds of millions of dol lars. These same political guerillas who ripped up the demo ; cratic revenue bill are the ones who vote vast grants out of the public treasury. They buy reelection with "bread and cir cuses" paid for out of the national treasury They are polit ical freebooters who care little if the treasury runs a huge deficit or not. If the congress would set about reducing government exDenditurea and abolishing tax-consuming boards, and can celling government subsidiaries to private interests the need , for the unpopular sales tax could be averted. Should tne sales tax be adopted it will be abolished when normal business is restored and normal receipts accrue from other sources. This 1 country has never liked direct and excise taxes. Under an ' economical government they would not be needed. GIVING A GOOD MAN HIS DUB Editor .

HENimiCKS : - i Coaches and Presidents mHE press of the state takes note of the stir raised when X the resignation, of Doc Spears as Oregon coach appear ed imminent. Showers of telegrams fell on tne state board, the university and the governor and on Doc Spears himself. As the Oregon Voter .says; "As a result of this tremendous ? outpouring of public opinion, football is saved." - ; But the Voter notes that the state accepted with calm ness news of the retirement of Pres. Kerr "after some 25 Tears of loyal devotion to serving our state and its youth' and of Pres. Hall "who has been with us five lively years' The Medford News made note of the "relative importance of a college president and a football coach", observing that few protests came in when Pres. Hall was dropped. The Medford Mail-Tribune comments without tears. i that rDean Allen must stop .turning out good newspaper men; but Doc Spears can go on turning out bigger and bet ter football teams. . ' AH this reminds one of the bitter comments evoked when the death of former president C. W. Eliot of Harvard received "inside" space while that of Rudy Valentino was , plastered all over the front pages. ; There is a difference however in the reaction over the 'news of the dropping of college presidents and the possible loss of a coach. The public had been informed months ago that the board would have a single head of the state school ' system; so the final announcement was received with no shock. There has been such tension over school matters that the public was anesthetized to endure most any order. Only local disturbances would have been created if the board had V- closed some of .the schools. . - r I Before long, however the people will, come out from un .. . der the sedative and as the time draws near for Pres. Kerr to leave the CorvalUs campus and Dr. Hall to leave the Eu gene campus there will be many manifestations of sorrow. ' While he has been in the state comparatively few years Dr. Hall has won the confidence of students and faculty at Eu gene and their affection as welt In 25 years Pres. Kerr has made great contributions to the welfare not only of the state college but of agriculture and industry in Oregon. His con tacts and associations, have been seasoned through years of service and all those acquainted with him and his work know that the state loses a man of great capacity In executive lead ership. . -.; , ; v; The state may keep a coach who may, if luck attends him, win a few football games in the fall.

' ' ; - Oregon' first whit Jan: V The first whit woman to ar rive In the Oregon country was named Jane; so was the second. Both English. And neither re mained long. They wer Jan Barnes and Jane Bearer; but much different one from the oth er. The first. Jane Barnes, was an English barmaid, attached to Donald McTarlsh, on of th chiefs -of the Hudson Bay com pany, and the second was Jan Bearer, wife ot Rev. Herbert Bearer, Episcopal clergyman. Jane Bearer arrived with her husband at Fort Vancouver Just before the arrival there ot Nar cissi Whitman and Eliza Spald ing, the first white women to cross the Rocky mountains. Ban croft says six weeks before. The Bits man thinks three weeks, or less. The ladles over the Rockies arrived Sept. 12, 1810. Kenneth W. Porter, for the June, 1120, number of the Ore gon Historical Quarterly, con tributed a carefully written arti cle telling about the coming and the stay ot Jane Barnes. His words of introduction read: "The character of Jane Barnes, the first white woman on the Colum bia river, is one of many which may be classed as much more in teresting than inspirational." "a e He goes on: "Originally a live ly, flaxen- haired, bine eyed bar maid at a hotel in Portsmouth, England, she caught the fancy ot Donald McTarlsh. who had stop ped at the establishment where she was employed n few days previous to his embarkation on the Isaae Todd tor th Columbia river, where he was to act tor the North West company as gov ernor ofeythe P which that or ganisation would supersede the American station ot Astoria. "That gentleman, without much difficulty, succeeded In adding her to all those comforts of home. Including 'bottled beer, 'excellent cheese." and prime tinned English beet. with , which he and his fellow proprietor. John McDonald, intended to sol ace their long ocean royaxe and subsequent exile In th Indian country of the northwest coast. What some of his Inducement were may appear later, but at any rate Miss Barnes must hare possessed a fair share of courage to brave the danger ot sea. war and savages and this perhaps help to Justify her right to that small but secure niche in history wnicn ner physical charms were chieny instrumental In winning. "After a passage of 12 months from England, the Isaae Todd. with Governor VcTarish and his conapagnonne de royage, crossed the bar of the Columbia on April 17, ii. it was on Sunday morn ing, a week later, that Alexander Henry, Jr.. went .on hoard and was Introduced, to her by McTar- isn. atter which th morning was pieasantiy spent in smoking and chatting.

McTarlsh was planning on taking np his permanent resMenc on shor at onee, eren though living accommodations might not b so comfortable, and. accordingly. two men were set to work, put- tug 'a room in order for D. McTarlsh and Jane. His reason for this decision was that his person was thought not safe on board, due to home difficulties he nad experienced with the captain and his extreme unpopularity witn tne crew. However, he did not Immediately carry this plan into effect, though he was ashore on May 4. for the first time, tt seems, unaccompanied by his mistress. S This was for a very good rea son, it seems that McTarlsh had at first intended, after getting the ion wen estaoiisned, which ap parently he thought would not be a rery extended task, to take Jane with him orerland to Montreal When he returned, bat. 'on learn ing the Impracticability of her performing such an arduous Jour ney, he abandoned that idea, and made arrangements with the cap tain cot tne Isaac Todd) for her return to England by way of Can ton.' The Isaae Todd waa to aall on Aurun x. ana ucrarun mar hare expected to leave (for Mon treal) before that date.' At any rate, ne aetenntned that the in eritable break could best come at once, and so proposed in order to protect the woman from the crowd of clerks and Toyageurs at tne post, to turn her orer formal ly to Henry. To this proposition tho latter, after a Joint conference with McTa-rish and Miss Barnes. finally consented, describing the arrangement as 'more an act of necessity than anything else.' and disclaiming all emotional consid erations say those ot humanity. Accordingly, on the appropriate date ot Sunday, May 8. the new arrangement went into effect, the longboat came with Jane, bag and baggage, and 'about sunset the Jolly boat took Mr. D.
