Its effect is to practi cally wipe Benton off the map so far as representation in the state senate is concerned. Benton is joined to Polk, and Benton is much the smaller county. The selection of senator is under the primary law, and voters will very likely stick to their own county man in preference to a candi date for senator in another county. Benton's show for a senator under those conditions will be very slim. It Is the worst deal Benton ever got at the hands of a legislature. We used to have a senator, a joint senator and three representatives. We have dwindled and dwindled through the gerrymandering process at Salem un til practically all we have left, after Senator Johnson's present term, will be one lone representative. What commanding position for an old and respectable couuty to occupy. Corval lis Times.

No tax rebates will be allowed after Friday, March 15, and the rush of tax payers who are desirous of saving the 3 per cent reduction will be heavy from now on. Taxes will become delinquent on the first Monday iu April, but by paying one-half of your tax before that date you will be given until the first Monday in October to pay the remaining one-half without Interest or costs. It would be a dlffl unit matter to frame a more effective tax law than the one now In force in uregon, anil it is lucky for the state that this meritorious law was not tinkered with by the recent Legisla ture. I he people's Legislature deprived the people of Polk county of one-half of their rightful representation in the Senate. Pretty tough medicine, but this people's Legislature said we must take it. uia rolk Is one of the few counties in Oregon that, will have to pay its share of that four-milliou-dollar ap propriation bill and get absolutely nothing iu return. CITY ELECTION BOARD A railroad from Sheridan to Willa mina is likely to be built by private capital. The Palmer Lumber Com pany and the Edwards Pressed Brick Company and many citizens of Yam hill county are back of the scheme. On account of the fine timber near Willamina and the whito and blue clay, it is thought the railroad woiUd pay from the first. One of the finest granite quarries In the country is on Willamina River near the town. The prospective builders are not blind to the fact that this road Is pointing to the Grand Ronde Gap, which leads to Tillamook. This gap is said to be by far the lowest In the Coast Range Mountains. Over this route people going to the coast go in rigs pulled by a single horse. This road, if built, will tap the Grand Ronde Valley, which Is rich In agricultural products and is sur rounded by enough timber to keep large mills running for half a cen tury. It Is said this road can be built at comparatively small expense, as there Is little grading to be done, the country being as smooth as a floor. One small bridge only .will have to be constructed. As the Indians in the Grand Ronde Valley are now getting deeds to their land in severalty and may sell with out restriction, it Is expected that there win be a rapid transfer of property and a corresponding development of this rich valley.

To you, who are naturally careful, it does not come high. It is economical because it can be quickly turned off wnen not needed. With gas or kerosene there is the temptation to let light burn when not needed to save bother or lighting and adjusting. In some homes the electric light bills amount to only one or two dollars per mouth. You can probably get some kind of artificial light for less money than electric light, but does it save you anything when it limits op portunities for work and recreation ruins yotir eyesight smokes your walls mars decorations and increases household work. You could probably save a dollar tomorrow by going without your meals but it wouldn't be economy. It Is not so much what you save, hut how you save that counts. WILLAMETTE VALLEY CO.
