The Bible School
Always to the forefront on any movement whioh
tends to make Ashland a better place in which to
live, the fathers and mothers of this city are sup
porting this year a full-time week-day bible school.
Last year the week-day schqol was conducted
on a part-time basis and if proved an unqualified suc
cess from its very inception. Indications thus far
give assurance that no mistake was made when it .
was decreed that a bible school teacher should be
employed on a full-time basis for this Splendid
work, as all classes are well attended.
Added impetus to the week day bible school
movement will be given *at a rally to be held at the
Methodist church tomorrow evening. All phases of
the plans for this year will be thoroughly discussed
and steps taken to insure the retention of this
worthy project throughout the school year. .
Bible school training for one day a week as a
part of the school work of grade pupils is a splen
did thing. It is not compulsory, but elective with
pupils and their parents. But it cau be said to the
everlasting credit of Ashland parents and children
that compulsion is not necessary.
Those who are interested in the moral welfare
of their children as well as their mental and physical
training will do well to attend this mass meeting at
the Methodist church tomorrow evening. It is a
good movement and desires united support.

Patterson’s Answer
. In answer to Governor Pierce’s invitation to
publicly discuss stat? issues I. L. Patterson, Re
publican candidate for governor, has referred the
governor to his platform which, in plain English,
answers all that the governor wanted to discuss.
From the reports we. get about this man Pat
terson he is not the type of man who delights in
making a show of himself. He is that type-of man
who, rather than camouflage his campaign with a
lot of absurd promises which would be impossible
to fulfill should he be elected, would rather meet
defeat at the election.
On the other hand, the governor, oh, how he
likes to get onto the platform and tell the dear
people how, if they will follow him, he will load them
opt of the darkness into the dawn of a never-ending
dgy. The governor is an able orator and debator.
He bas a faculty of getting the crowd “ with him’’.

Freak Laws Hurt Orégon
Such freak laws as the proposed sales tax on
tobacco and cigarettes are doing untold harm to
Oregon. While the progressive organizations of this
State devote their efforts to advertising Oregon's
advantages to business men in less favored parts
of the Union, we nullify the good work and scare
away many a business project by just such foolish
laws.
« . Business men want stability and security. They
do not object to taxation, but they expect it to be
equitable and not oppressive. Only the other day,
a prominent Oregon manufacturer, just returned from
the East, stated that there was only one thing hold
ing Oregon back from becoming one of the largest
manufacturing centers of the United States—our
tendency to enact freak laws. Eastern capitalists
and manufacturers, he said, are afraid to venture
into business here.
If the only effect of a tobacco sales tax were
to harm the tobaoco trade and unjustly single out
the smoker for a special tax, it would be bad enough.
But it will not end there. If not decisively defeated
it will encourage succeding legislatures to extend
the sales tax system to numerous other articles.
Bach such tax will strengthen Eastern business men
in the conviction that Oregon is no place for thein.
How can they be expected to establish industries
here when at any time they may be crippled or
virtually taxd out of existence?
I t ’s time to call a bait to a program so harmful
to Oregon’s development. Citizens looking to the
future greatness of this State will not hesitate to
so completely repudiate this measure as to put a
definite end tq freak laws and nonsensical inter
ference with business and personal liberty in the
State of Oregon.
