DO YOU WANT YOUR TAXES INCREASED? 0ne of lhe Resuts of Counly division Would Be to Make Assessments Larger. Many people' in Oregon' own pro perty in different parts of the state. Nearly every property owner. In one way and another, would be affected If the county division scheme is not voted down. One of the results or the scheme would' be to increase the people's taxes; in some cases, taxes would be doubled.' But the people will be guided "by sane judgment and will vpte "No" to all these - measures which,- declares the Eugene Register, were foisted upon the public by pro fessional politicians and ambitious little towns. , That paper 'says editor ially: J'Nlne county division Bchemes are bidding for enactment under the In itiative, in Imitation of Hood River county's success two years ago, and the end is not yet. Here is direct legislation gone to seed and dissemin ating trouble through the fair expanse Of Oregon, says the Oregontan. . "The latest Is Deschutes county. presenting a petition to the secretary of state and aBklng to be carved out of the northwest part of Crook coun ty, Umpqua, Williams and Nesmith, with overlapping boundaries, seek in dependence from Lane and Douglas counties. Umatilla county is wrestling with the ambitious schemes of Orch ard and Hudson. Clark desires sepa ration from Grant, Otis from Malheur and Harney. A strip of Clackamas seeks annextion to Multnomah.' Politicians, office seekers and am bitious little towns are - putting up the'se county partition schemes. More counties will provide additional of ficial places and other patronage. They will also make higher taxes and more trouble for property owners. It Is reaching a point in Oregon where the electorate will feel obliged to vote uniformly against all these new counties. The voters cannot in form themselves on the many local details Involved, in order to legislate, therefore they are likely to take the view that their safest action wllj be that of voting "No" on the "whole bunch." , "The Oregonlan's position on this matter Is correct It should add, how ever, that it is important for those who oppose this wholesale formation of new counties to be sure and vote as they feel about It, and put a "No" In front of each ono- or every pro posed new county will carry. The peo ple can put it up to the legislature to frame a fair and just division law that will leave formation of new coun ties to the territory thus affected and relieve the whole state of responslbil. ity for county formations. This Is what the people want and they will get it If they vote "No" on all pro posed county schemes at the Novem ber election." ' ' b . ABUSE OF THE INITIATIVE. It Is a gross abuse of the rights guaranteed by the Initiative and Ref erendum Amendment to the Oregon Constitution to bring up woman suf frage at every general election. This measure was submitted' lu 1900 and beaten, by a plurality of 21?7. In 1906 It was again proposed and was beat en by a majority of 10173. In 1908 It was again oi the ballot and it was beaten by a ma'o:lty of 2W49. NoU withstanding the repeated defeats more decisive at each election, the same measure' la again on the bal lot this year. The ballot title 1st mis leading and Indicates a proposal to give votes to taxpaytag women only, but the measure to be voted on is the same proposition which the peo ple have so often and so -recently condemned: It should be voted down this year by an Increased majority. especially because of the fraud un dertaken- to be perpetrated on tne people by the usej of a false and mis leading title on the ballot.

(Albany Herald) "There are no less than e!ght appli cations for the creation of new coun ties to be voted upon by the people of Oregon at 'this fall's election. Though there may be one or more of these new county schemes possessing some degree of nferit and are prompted by good faith. It would appear that In the main Uey are not entitled to the favorable consideration of, the people at large, and as a matter of expedi tion and good public policy all of them should be defeated. "In the first place the Herald be lieves that the creation of a new county is a matter devolving upon the legislature and should not be submit ted to a vote of the people at large. who cannot possibly have any intelli gent Idea of the demand for 'such pro posed new counties and are, therefore, In no sense competent to vote upon the measures. What does the average voter of the northeastern part of the state know about the practicability or wisdom of the clamor of the south western portion of the state for the creation of a new county? Certainly, in the majority of cases, he would not be able to cast an intelligent vote on the proposition. The submission to a vote of the people of the whole state of these var ious county division schemes, there fore, would seem highly Impracticable, if not unwise. Moreover, the success of these various division schemes would establish a bad precedent, which might tend to retard the healthy growth and ' reasonable prosperity of many counties of the state. There are doubtless counties In Oregon which should be divided into two separate county divisions, but these. the Herald believes, should be taken care of by the legislature and not voted upon by. the people of the state at .large, who cannot possibly. Judge of the merits or" wisdom of the proposed division of a remote section of the state, and in which the voters at large can have no reasonable Inter est. Many of the county schemes up for consideration this fall are without question Ill-advised and prompted by impure motives, and the Herald sug gests a negative vote on all county measures as the most practical rem edy for the present county division ep idemic. COUNTY DIVISION Under the present laws In the opin ion of eminent lawyers, counties can only be divided or boundaries changed by the vote of the people. All laws snould be obeyed. Some laws should be appealed or amended. The law creating new counties is un fair as voters are asked to create new counties where . they cannot ' know the local conditions and might form a new county where four-fifths of the residents of the old county are op posed to it. . What do the. voters of Clasop know of ' the needs of Grant, Malheur, Crook, Umatilla, Douglas, Lane, Wash ington, Clackamas and Multnomah They could vote Just as intelligently for' the county officers In these coun ties 'as for their division or the chang ing of the boundaries. There is strong opposition to di vision in all the counties mentioned and it would seem to be but justice that these localities should settle their own local differences. You will have the privilege of vot ing tor a bill to leave the function of new counties and municipalities to the districts Interestd. As between man and man, would not this plan be the more equitable? - The average . voter will certainly take this view of it. In all fairness now, will not your conscience and sense of right tell you to vote against all division and vote "Yes X 3S2,' which will relieve you of the task of voting for measures with which you can not be familiar. . , STATE PRESS AQAIN8T IT. "The Nesmith county boosters. traveling- in an automobile,, were here this morning. The atmosphere being1 exceedingly chilly they soon moved on. Our people don't believe in county butchery to further the per sonal ends of a few schemers." Rose- burg Review. "If all the voters of Oregon who are Opposed ' to the proposed wholesal formation of new counties vote "No at the' November election, they will all be .defeated, but If those opposed merely pass the county propositions up without voting on thom at all, they will carry by the "Yes" votes cast for them. This is a fact that it would be well to remember on election day." --Eugene Register. '' ' "There are seven new counties pro posed, and may be 'more for us to vote on nex November. Don't you think our taxes heavy enough at pres ent without taking on- this unneces sary additional expense? Look Into this matter before voting time. Echo Echoes. , , ' . (Paid Advertising.) INNUMERABLE BILLS CONFUSE THE VOTER Numerous Divison Measures Would Change State Map Beyond Recognition. "Business men of Oregon will do well to take note of the Innumerable county division bills for the considera tion of the people next fall. Already so many division measures have been filed with tlie secretary of 'state that It half of them are adopted the map of Oregon will be so changed that it will not be recognized even by a na tive son," declares .the Pendleton Eas Oregonian in its Issue of July, 25. Furthermore the indiscriminate creation of new counties' cannot fall to Increase taxation. This state can not create ten new counties and pro vide for ten additonal sets of county officers and hope to get along with present levies. The.dlvislonists make assertions to the contrary.; But that campaign' talk. That same argu ment was advanced In favor of the creation of Hood River county. Yet A. Echlffler, a Pendleton tailor who owns property in Hood River, found bis taxes Increased 61.4 per cent the first year of the new county's exist ence. It is the history of every new county that division brings on increas ed taxation. This is only natural. Another feature ot these division rights'is the fact that division meas ures are sprung when the people re- lding in the proposed new counties do not want division at all. Take for Instance the Orchard county scheme. Manifestly the people residing In the greater portion of that proposed coun ty do not want division. Two of the four towns included in Orchard coun ty are hotly opposed to the division. They are Weston and Athena. They have good reason for being opposed. Division will mean increased taxation and that business now held by Athena and Weston' will be diverted to Walla Walla. Milton people Imagine they will get that . business. But thev won't. Milton Is practically a suburb of Walla Walla and such it will al ways remain. If Orchard county car ries, that business wi'l be lost to this state. "The Orchard county measure was drafted in secret by a little clique qf Milton business men. It Is purely a selfish measure. Representative men living right in Milton and in Free- water are opposed to the proposition In communications to this paper they have so declared tnemselves. Even the newspapers of Milton and Free wa ter have failed to take up with the proposition. Neither the Freewater Times or the Milton Eagle advocates the division measure editorially and this fact has caused much comment. The Weston Leader and the Athena Press have declared themselves as utterly opposed to division. ' LET POPULATION INCREASE. Counties Where Division Agitated too 8parely 8ettlsd. The Prinevllle Review sizes up the situation wisely when It says that the population In most of the counties where county division Is being agi tated is too small and , scattering. Many of the districts are too sparsely settled to permit the scheme. Resi dents and property owners would be taxed so blgh that it would mean ruin to a large number. Walt until the counties have more people and the list of taxables warrant county division, advises the Review as follows: 1 ' "It would be unwise to make any sort, of division of Crook County Just now. It Is too thinly settled yet. In due course of time, when the parent county shall have- attained 25,000 or 30,000 and the list of taxables war rants It, division will be sure to come; It is Inevitable. But It is not business sanity to divide a county of less than 10,000 sodls, and a moment of : sober reflection should 'convince any pne of this. . When the proper time jrrves and a Just county division lawj is en acted, the three cities most concern ed, Madras, Redmond and Bend, all of which ' have' division schemes in mind,' can settle the matter between themselves. But so long as the whole state is required to vote upon a mat ter with which only a small part Is even remote y concerned,, we would advise electors to vote an emphatic NO, not only on the. Deschutes' propo sition, but every other county bill." NESMITH ' COUNTY. 'The idea of creating Nesmith coun- ty Is commendable, but Is the manner of creating it 'commendable. It'll hoped that In time a Nesmith county wl l be formed, but It sbould be done In a way that would be approved by blm If he were with us today! Just ai well ask the people of Portland to vote for the county officers of Lane county, or the city officers of Eugene, is to vote to create Nesmith county ind this applies as well to all the pro- "osed new counties,' (Paid Advertising.) 1910 1 OCTOBER jioio 8 - - T .
