WE ARE CLOTHING
SPECIALISTS
I cam e into this S tate 40 years
ago, a w andering boy, w orking as a
farm hand.
F o r 30 years I have
been in public office. I have never
d eliberately m isled or deceived any­
body. In public li.e 1 have tried to
play absolutely square.
W hen I was nom inated last May,
I said to my frien d s: I will carry
the m essage of lower taxes to the
people of th is S tate.
I have no
m oney, b u t I expect to m ake a h u n ­
dred speeches.
Five tim es I have
touched th e ocean, and gone from
C alifornia to th e riv er in Idaho
th re e tim es. I have gone w herever
the invitation was extended; w her­
ever I could m eet a little group and
talk to them ab o u t w hat I th in k is
a s ta rtlin g sta te of a ffa irs. I am
try in g to do it fairly, honestly and
in the open.
F riends, if we save Oregon from
the auction block, if we save our
property from confiscation by tax a ­
tion, we have got to do some very
h ard th in k in g .
To my m ind, th e
tax question is the forem ost problem
in O regon today. It rises above all
else. The question is: Are you gd
ing to own your own hom es and
your own farm s in fu tu re years, or
a re they going to be tak e n from you
by the rising tid e of taxes?
The ren ta l value of all property
in Oregon is too high according to
th e value of th e property, caused by
the high taxes, it doesn’t cut much
ice in th e m oney m ark e ts when th e
p roperty passes away from the m an
who th o u g h t he owned it. He Is left
w ith th e hu sk ; th e k e rn e l is gone.
W hen I w ent to the Senate the
first tim e, it took about 15 per cent
of the ren ta l value of property to
pay taxes.
T h at year, U m atilla
county raised 3,000,000 bushels of
w heat. O ur S tate taxes were $100,-
000 in th a t county; 3% per cent of
the w heat crop paid its taxes. This
year, th a t county produced 4,000,000
bushels of w heat, w hile h er taxes
are $1,549,000, of which $433,084
Is S tate tax, w hile the whole is 40
per. cent of the value of the w heat
crop tak e n for taxes. The popula­
tion of th e S tate then was about
31.3,000.
Now it is not q u ite
800,000.
W hen I en tered the S tate Senate
20 years ago, $1,000,000 was th e
to ta l State expense. W hen I re-
tu rn d to the Senate six years ago it
was $2,500,000 per year. Today.
$15,000,000 or m ore is collected
from us in taxation. Can this tid e
continue to rise if we keep our prop­
erty ? How high is it going to go?
T here ig collected $6.000,000 in
fees now, six tim es as m uch as we
spent 20 years ago; m ore th an tw ice
w hat we spent six years ago.
In kn o ts and groups I have been
carry in g th is m essage to the people-
"T H IS MUST STO P!” I shall con­
tin u e to c arry it until election day.
I asked Mr. Day, as Secretary of
th e Tax Investigation C om m ittee, to
collect som e figures for me. Accord­
ing to these figures, th e re are only
five or six sta te s in the Union th a t
have m ore bonded indebtedness th an
we have. In w ealth and population
we ran k down ab o u t th irty -six th .
T he figures show we are spending
m ore m oney fo r sta te governm ent
thani the S tate of K ansas. K ansas
spends $8,500,000; we spend $15,-
000.000, w hile M innesota spends
only $1,600,000. You ask, “ W hy is
M innesota aw ay down th e re ? ” It is
because M innesota has raised from
in d irect sources the la rg e r p a rt of
h er revenue for S tate purposes,
w hile w-e have raised It from th e
farm er, the ca ttle m an and the sheep
m an. They th o u g h t these m en could
not kick, b ut they ARE kicking to-
day. If I do not m iss my guess,
they will show still m ore kicking in
Novem ber.
M innesota collects 5 per cent upon
all public service c o rp o ra tio n s in
m a t sta te . C alifornia pays her State
taxes in th e sam e way. T h at should
be done in Oregon. You may say
th is tax comes back upon the peo­
ple. J u s t th e sam e, it is spread out
on m ore people. It is not ori a tew
scattered farm ers.
Today we a re confiscating prop­
e rty and ru ining the people of this
S tate who a re feeding us. They can­
not operate th e ir farm s a t a profit,
and they cannot pay the heavy taxes
levied upon them .
M innesota collects 25 cents from
every ton of ore dug up and tak en
from th e sta te . This is done by a
rl severance tax. W hen you tak e a
p roduct from th a t S tate, you m ust
Ì pay for the privilege. I was a t a
place in Oregon wfiere they showed
me a m ine from which a com pany
had tak e n out a m illion dollars in
gold. It was owned by citizens of
E ngland. They had not paid a dol­
lar in taxes to the State of Oregon
for rem oving th is g rea t w ealth.
k 3 A severance tax has been levied by
several s ta te s in this Union. It is
J som ething for us to talk about and
V* • O
V-W consider. In a few years O regon’s
beau tifu l fo rests will be blackened

I: m ent to set aside g re a t fo rest reser­

i received. "Yrom forests in th e re­

and ship th e lum ber to O klahom a.
T hus from O regon’s g reat forests in
the reserve th ere come no taxes to
su p p o rt th e State.
We have $10,000,000 in bonded
indebtedness for th e soldier boys. I
don’t reg re t the m oney we gave
them . It was S enator Sm ith of Coos
and I who introduced the bill. Two
and a h alf m illion dollars have been
raised to encourage the boyr to' go
hack to school. I am glad we have
given th is money to them . W e can
never do too m uch for the m en who
w ent down on the fields of F rance
to do and to die.
We have on th e ballot a m easure
to impose a flat income tax. I am
opposed to th a t, but I am in favor of
a grad u ated income tax, because I
believe th e m an who has th e large
incom e should pay m ore th an the
m an who has the sm all income.
A gross earnings tax would he a n ­
o th e r source of revenue.
The c a ttle grow er certain ly needs

C attle a re selling cheaper

a re going to th e b u tch e r’s block.
They sim ply cannot be produced for
th e m oney th a t is paid for them t o ­
day. The b urden upon th e farm and
ranch has become unbearable.
T here is no question in th is cam ­
paign but th a t of taxes. T here is no
o th e r t h :ng to talk about. If I don’t
do a n y th in g else, I am going to do
th is to the end of tim e. You can in
six y ears drive th is State into b a n k ­
ruptcy. I have done and am doing
th e very best I know how to carry
th is m essage of low er taxes to the
people of Oregon.

It all depends upon you who read

cost, or w-hether you don’t.
My pledge is th is:
