The following timely eonimunicn

lished In the Salem Journal, Is worthy
of being reproduced. It deals with
u subject on which the Eust Orefroiilnn
has commented repeatedly. The com

who are coming Into our state each

Then, could we not pay a little
greater school tax, demand a little
higher license, make It an entirely
free school system, and thereby en
courage a larger attendance and more
honor for our state?
After this Is accomplished our tru

Finally, and at an earlier dute, our
state and our youth will be more In
line with this enlightened age of wis

ent would be glad to pay for their

able to do so, and it Is within reason
that parents advance a little now and
then toward school supplies, notwith
standing taxes, but to my notion our
present system Is out of date und un
reasonable, and I believe I voice the
sentiment of all good school patrons
and of the laboring people especially.
