replaced by other democrats. Martin

One of the best results of the Pen-dleton-Pilot
Rock railroad will be to
-cheapen and increase the fuel supply
Ja this and other towns of the county.
The wood yards In Pendleton are
now more completely cleaned out
than ever before since the railroad
has been In operation over the Blue
mountains. Fuel has been higher
priced the past year than ever before.
and the supply on the rilue mountains
Is becoming more uncertain each year.
The Pilot Rock railroad will Up a
rich yellow pine district to the south
and east of that place. This timber
belt is the ultimate goai of the road
for the mountains to the south are
covered with a splendid forest, which
will give the city a fuel supply that
will be inexhaustible.
In addition to relieving the fuel
situation In this part of the country,
the Pilot Rock road should be the
means of locating a sawmill In this
city with a capacity of at least 100.000
feet dally. The logs can be trans
ported cheaply from the mountains.
and the slabs, sawdust and other
waste products can be utilized for
fuel in the mills.
England, the profits
from the municipal electric light, gas.
telephones and other city properties
have been so great that the city coun
cil has paid the sum of $217,304 of
the city taxes for the past year, thus
reducing the levy on the taxpayers
about one-third of the usual amount.
This Is a practical result of, public
ownership one which no amount of
sophistry can explain away nor dis
parage. The city can furnish these
utilities at cheaper rate than corpor
ations for municipalities are satisfied
with smaller profits. Then when the
profits accumulate, as they have in
Bolton, the city has a surplus on hand
with which to pay off old debts, re
duce taxes, or make further improve
ments, as may be best.
Pendleton and every other town can
take a practical lesson from this story-
Every town is founded on practically
the same general lines. Taxes are
