A BIGOT OF BIGOTS There is a man in Oregon who seems to want to dictate the policy of the state and all its people. While not running for office him self he is boosting others, evidently with the idea of making more popu larity for himself. As a member of the legislature he was author of sev eral measures which, we have to ad mit, 'had merit, but many other of his imageries found but little fa vor with his fellow legislators. That man is W. S. U'Ren. His latest dream is to discredit Senator-Elect- Steiwer, and to j Any citizen of this state, male or I female, who is twenty-one years of afro and has resided in the district thirty days immediately preceding the meeting or election and has pro- perty in the district, as shown by the 'last county assessment, and not as cosed by the sheriff, on which he or . she is liable or subject to pay a tax, shall be entitled to vote at any ; school meeting or election in said 'district; provided, that the property The "At Rest" inscription on a j qualifications imposed by this sec tombstone does not always mean tion shall not apply in the election what some people think, for many a of school directors and school man has worked his wife to death. jgtf-j fflST j coT- . ,m. . with the property qualification Some girls say they dress for imposed by this section who presents comfort, but now and then we sec to the directors or judges of election . . , i . i - gausiaciory eviucnto wui o v mn one cressea as mougn sue wn w -- . - . nwI,n,iB i give the men an eye full, also cause corporation, firm, or copartner six ! a good laugh. ship which has property In the dis- The farmer who is too busy shak- "net. - shown oy "J""; ! the hoe to stop and shake hands ; . if . hi h . cn conorBt0n. with political candidates is not los- fTm, or copartnership pays a tax, ing much, if anything. . even though his or ncr lnaiviuuai name uoes now ny" , " y n i jroll; provided further, that in dis- State LaWS Kelating Itricts of the third class, any head of Tn School Elections a family who Is otherwse a qualified 10 ocnooi uiecuunb and havin? children of . school age, may vote at such elec- Tran.Portation of Pupils ition w.thout poperty quamicauons. 1 - tv An min f nv Rrhool meet ing, or any qualified elector, is here by authorized to cnauange any per- prcsenta to tho directors or judges of election satisfactory evidence that he has Rtocks, shares or owner ship in such copartnership, is en titled to vote. Under tho constitution the legis lature has power to prescribe the qualifications of voters at school meetings and. at elections for dis trict officers. State v.

The law relating to elections In union high school districts to de termine the question of issuing bonds is to bo found in sections 163 to 100, inclusive, and the qualifica tions of voters at such election are prescribed by section 263. Opinion of attorney general, 1922. It is not necossary for electors to register in order to vote at school elections. Laws 1913, chapter 323, page 625, section 6.

An failed in his returns is -nonsensical. U'Ren wants to always be in the limelight. His latest move stamps him as being either a plain incompe tent or a trouble monger..

Everyone is entitled to his own opinion about this, and there is no reason why any driver in Maupin can't disagree with the doctor if he wants to. For our part, we prefer to let somebody else be in front of it when something goes wrong, regardless of whether it is going 4 or 400 miles an hour. The constitutional provision fix ing the qualifications of voters (section 2, article II, constitution of Oregon) does not apply to school elections, and the property qualifi cation is valid. Setterlin v. Keene, 48 Or. 52; 87 Pac. 673. Ownership of property assessed to another does not qualify a voter. Setterlin v. Keene, supra. The contention that the statute is satisfied if the person offering to vote In fact owns property which is listed on the assessment roll, al though it- may have been assessed in the name of another, is without merit. The requirement is that he must have property "as shown by the last ceunty assessment" " The ownership of the property must ap pear from the assessment and can not be shown by extrinsic evidence. Setterlin v. Keene, supra. Note rln the case above cited the question of a person who holds stocks or shares n a corporation firm or copartnership was not at is sue. Where the name of a corpora tion, firm or copartnership appears on the assessment roll, any one who When a grown man will devote his time and education to memorizing poetry which partakes of lewdness, although it emenated from the pen of a nationally-recognized poet, but who was wont to mingle with people of inferior intellect, that man is wasting the attributes with which the Creator endowed him. He might better devote his time to becoming more familiar with the Bible for in that book are many things pleas ing and educational.
