.The High School Tuition Law
. "fTlHE case of IVeinacht vs. Bower promises to be history-,
A making for Oregon as regards both taxation anfl edu
cation. This is the case testing the constitutionality of the
law which imposes on non-high school districts the cost of
. educating children from those districts attending high
" schools, including the transportation cost. The case is im
portant to many farmers because this law imposes on them
tax which this year is 6.5 mills, or more than the average
for running the district schools in the country districts. It
is responsible for a considerable portion of the increase
which has come in farm taxation. !
The case is important to the town districts because if
the law is declared unconstitutional they will lose revenue,"
the outgo on which s now being incurred through educating
young people' from the country districts. So these districts
have an importantstake in the controversy.
. j We do not care to enter into any discussion of the legal as
pects of the issue which is now joined in formal suit But
we do want to raise the question as to the educational prob
: km which is involved. Suppose the law is declared unconsti
tutional; or if it is upheld -suppose the next legislature re
peals the law; what provision shall be made for educating
youth from the country?
' Most states are committed to the belief that young peo-
- pie, unless they are dullards, are entitled to a high school
education. Those! living on farms 'are quite as zealous on this
point as those in towns. Farmers want their children to have
a fair education so they will not be handicapped in the strug-
j gle of life.1 So there are many farmers who suppdrt this high
school tuitiqn law. In fact it was farmer opposition as much
, as anything which defeated the bill for repealing the bus law
at the last legislature.
True, districts could go back to the old basis in which
the individual pupil paid his tuition and. provided his own
transportation. But that virtually excludes from high school
many deserving young people, limiting them to the schooling
provided in a small country district. Or it would encourage
thr establishment of more small, expensive, poorly equipped
.high schools in the effort to provide this education close to
- the homes.' i ;
; Taking the longer view it seems to us that -we could
' start with two facts, first that farm taxation is too high in
terms of farm incomes both present and probable during
. the next decade; second that country youth deserve a high
, school education. To reduce farm taxes this heavy high school
tuition tax must be reduced. That can be accomplished pnly
;by spreading the cost over a wider base.
Instead of levying the tax only on the non-high school
territory would it be unjust to spread it over the whole of
the county? Instantly the city district would reply, why
. should we provide education for .these pupils from the coun
try? There are two answers to this query, first the fact that
t the city draws from the country for much of its wealth ; and
second, while these children do come, from the country, a
large number of them are going to live in the cities and
towns.
The issue is not going to be settled by this lawsuit, no
matter how it is decided. The side which loses will bring the
subject before the legislature. The state ought to begin to
. study .the fundamentals , of the problem which the test case
, does not touch. i

Indian slaves here:
(Continuing from Sunday:) la
18S4 John Work found slaves la
the Willamette valley. Joseph
Gervals, in 1841, gave a detailed
account of the Indians here to a
visitor. This visitor wrote: "These
poor and degraded creator ee seem
as if destined to destruction. They
are always at war with one anoth
er, and sell their prisoners for
slaves, as the white people of our
slave states sell the negroes."
Father Da Smet wrote: "The
year 1845 was a sad and memor
able one for the Blackfeet. In
two skirmishes with tha Flat-
heads and Kallspells, they lost 41
warriors. The Crees carried off a
large number of horses, and SI
scalps. They massacred 60 famil
ies, and led 180 women and chil
dren into captivity; Soma of tha
latter were sacrificed to their fall
en warriors; -the rest they con
demned to slavery.

John Work in 1830 found slaves
among the Ceruses, and he wrote:
"The Walla Walla tribe are des
cended from slaves formerly own
ed and liberated by the Nes Perce
Indians .... They are bow a re
spected tribe." (It seems that the
Nes Perces" thought it not right
to "bold in slavery their own des
cendants," coming from intermar
riage,' and so liberated them all.)
V -Among
the Sioux of the plains,
all captives were regarded as
slaves. But their own warriors
were seldom taken alive, prefer

Looking back at it afterward, it
seemed the happiest day of her
life. Not even her wedding day was
happier. Tha top of the car was
down. They drove, bareheaded, let
ting the wind whip through their
hair, turning to each other, to
laugh, Just out of sheer Joy.
"We ought to make tune," Ken
said, but be stopped at every orange
juice stand, every little sandwich
place along the way. They drank
the frosty orange Juice, nibbled on
hot. Juicy sandwiches. They stopped
in fields of wild flowers, to gather
'great bunches of pale yellow and
orchid tinted manposa lilies
exotic, lovely things, swaying on
their slender stems like butter
flies.
"But they'll die unless wa have
some water to put them in!"
Ken wouldn't go down ta the
river bed without her. He said be
wouldn't trust her out of bis sight
until they bad the license. She
might change her mind. So they
ran down the bill together, Lily Lou
slipping and sliding, screaming
with helpless laughter.
They soaked the newspapers they
had brought hf the' shallow water,
wrapped the lilies carefully. They
sat on a boulder, in the shade or a
stunted oak tree, and watched two
great gold and green dragonfliea
whizxing over the water.
They ought to hurry. ... But it
was too perfect. Lily Lou. looked
up at tha cloudless azure sky, back
to tha sprawling California hills,
already faintly golden under the
summer sun. Her eyes met Ken's.
. . . "Let's not get married. Let's
stay here forever," aha smiled.
"Wonderful Ideal" -
Bat presently ba waa afraid the
license bureau would close before
they could get there. He kept look

Lily Lea wanted to laugh and cry
all at once . . . dear, darting Ken,
afraid they'd lose a day. . . .
At Lakeport they asked an old
man lounging in tha shade which
waa the baa of records.
Went into the eooL dim building,
out of the blazing sun.
Lily Lou waa a little nervous, but
Ken wasnt. They gave their names,
and ages, said they hadn't been

"So you're a year elder than
am," she said, when they came out.
The ehlef factor - at Vancouver
says tha slave are tha property of
the women with whom their work

hare knowa eases to tha contrary.
Wa shall sen how this reasoning
applies. These women w'no are
said to ba the owners of the slaves
are frequently bought themselves
by tha men with whom they live,
when they, are mere children. Of
course they have no means of pur
chase until their husbands or
their men make the purchase from
the proceeds of their labor; and
then these women are considered

have come here'. . . and mother and
dad just across th lake, perfectly
ignorant of what aha waa doing. . . ,
The moment passed.
The drive "boms, under the stars,
waa magic.-. . . They couldnt hurry
. . it waa too perfect.
There was a flat tire en th
mountain at Calistoga, and Ken dis-
covered there was no jack ta the
car.
Ha climbed back in, grinning.
.fWhat are yoa going t do.
Ken!"
"What do you suggest?"
They sat there, on the mountain,
at two o'clock in the morning and
rocked with crazy, nappy laughter.
"You see," ba said, "not even a flat
tire can dampen my ardor"
"Ken dont youv rot ta fix
tb TD2E!" aba laughed.
"Pleasure, before duty"
"But if you dont fix tha tire"
WiiI you stop worrying me!"
After a while a tow car came
along. Kea nailed It. . . . "In a
hurry, mister!"
No, just going home." the me
chanic aald.
WhUe ba. changed tb tire Kea
watched him, bands deep in bia
pockets, coming over to grin at
Lily Lou every few moments
bis triumphant grin. ...
"See! See what happens when
you dont fuss! Heaven provides
even to tow ears. Are yoa going
to leave everything ta me, after
thia!"
She found bia Irresistible. How
bad aba ever thought aha could give
nun up i
When they cam borne at four
o'clock and May got ua to read her
a lecture, LOy Lou didnt even mind.
"And yoa know as well as I do,
that this sort of thing cant go on.
Yoa may say that yoa dont ear
what people think. But what if yoa
lose your voice
Even that didnt sober her very
much. Suppoeo aba did lose her
voice! ... It might be best if she
did. . . .
She thought, lying awake long
after May kad left, that she'd be
willing to lose her voice if it would
mean keeping Ken's love forever.
The singing . . . what waa that,
compared to love! Just nothing.
. . . She'd willingly give it all up
... for Ken. ...
