Within a year a million people have left the farms, says a news item And anyone who takes notice of the increased number of piddlers, can vassers, and agents who swarm from the cities into the rural districts will get some idea of what these surplus city folks are doing for a living Another million off from the farms, less produce will be raised; more customers are created for it; compe tition in urban production brings down prices. The mills of the gods grind slowly but they grind exceedingly fine Everything evens up in the long run, The man who keeps chasing favorable conditions inevitably gets left. As an argument against the in come tax a gentleman who recently visited Monmouth told of an incident at Klamath Falls. A Wisconsin man had started a sawmill to develop his timber holdings and had about completed the erection of a new house when Oregon passed an income tax aw. He had left Wisconsin to escape the income tax law and here was Ore gon adopting a law that would penal- ze his profits six percent. So he discontinued his saw mill, ordered his timber interests looked after by an agent, and placed his new house with a real estate man for sale and left to find another state as a place of residence. Now, suppose this man, who has already been driven out of two states because their tax laws did not meet with his approval continues to repeat his experience as other states he se lects adopt the same form of law. Of course ho is bound to keep on. Will he not in time become like the Wan dering Jew or the Man Without a Country? Would it not be as cheap co pay taxes as they are levied against him as to spend his substance moving from one state to another? A charter amendment authorizing the Issuance of 1987,000 of bonds to cover 75 per cent of the cost of ac quiring rights-of-way for wide bridge approaches was adopted by the voters of Portland at the special city elec tion held March 4 by 5664 majority. Discussion of the labor situation in Oregon and outlining some plan whereby workers may be distributed to the best advantage of both em ployer and employe, will feature a meeting of the seasonal employment commission to be held in Portland Saturday. An order for a special election to be held In Lane county May 16 at the time of the primaries to vote upon the question of levying a special tax of 2 mills to raise Lane county's share of the cost of constructing the Pacific highway bridge over the Willamette river at Harrisburg was made by the county court. There were two fatalities In Oregon due to industrial accidents during the week ending March 13, according to a report prepared by the state industrial accident commission. The victims were: Louis Larson, Holbrook, fore man, and D. B. Wagner, Molalla, edger. A total of 615 accidents were report ed during the week.
