THAT INCOME TAX Much is being said for and iaagnst the proposed income tax, sponsored by Governor Patterson. ' Some interests are sending out prop aganda decrying such a tax, while othre3 are voicing their faith in the 'jneasure. The country press iis re ceiving many, letters asking their influence by both parties. The Times hts not learned enough .of the ins and outs of the measure to take a stand either way. We will say, J however, that Governor , Patterson, ' as well as many other astute poli ticians favor the tax, no doubt hav ing good reason for bo doing, and that we believe they know what they are talking about when they say it should be passed. At anw rate, if ! it is a measure to increase the j rtate's revenue and at the same time not increase the general tax, we are j for it Doings at Pine Grove.

They wer emaed by tha Dayton, Ohio, Scale company and, besides being a valuable adjunct to the store, add greatly to the appearance of tht counters at Butler'a grocery nd meat market ' Read The Maupin Times and Get All the News We wonder why it is that press dispatches from the Coos Bay coun try invariably bear a Marshfield date line, when the fact is that most of such are related to North Bend? The latter city has the unbound hustle of the west, is growing by leaps and bounds and in time bids fair to be the metropolis of that sec tion of the state. We suggest that the correspondent use 'a little more discretion and not play one . town against the other so strongly. , It is rumored that, in case Secre tary, of State Kozer is given another state portfolio, Hal Hoss, secretary to Governor Patterson, will succeed to Sam's office." Knowing Hal, We will say that the governor couhi do no better In making the appointment for the former Oregon, Cityt news paper man is a good "hoss" both in name and ability. . Because the Portland Oregonian saw fit to support the proposed in come tax measure it is called turn coat by some of the country press, Those who dub Oregon's leading newspaper two-faced are reminded that "a wise man changes his mind, a fool never." Uucle Sam will make the size of his currency smaller. Not on our account. Our purse is large enough to hold all the old size bills we can get hold of, and not cause it to bulge at fchat. Ooo "OOOOO 0 0 OOOOOOOO 00 O o PICKED UP ABOUT TOWN o OoooooooooooooooooobO There is a wood man in The Dalles who deserves a medal for honesty. He delivered a ' load of wood to a firm there last Saturday and while unloading iti demanded the, buyer get a man to tramp the pile down so as to makevaure of correct measure. The suggestion of . Dr. Stovall that "Clear Lake be closed this sea son is apt. Fishermen who have no aregrd for the Jaw regarding the size of trout are -many, and with hordes taking them from, the Jake but few will be left to grow to ! mature size, and thus strip the lake of trout thatotherwise would make good fishing. x We oftentimes wonder what be came of the city triffic ordinance and why it is not enforced. Hardly a day passes but what some autoist goes through town os though on the wings of the wind, and he is allow ed to get away with it. If someone s struck by those in such A hurry we expect then the ordinance will be strictly enforced for a time. x Nick Karolus is the possessor of a dog. He says it is a shepherd dog. We thing differently. Judging- by the nose it makes when left alone we imagine it must be a mix ed strain part jackas3 and part , coyote. Dr. Elwood is somewhat busy these days. Taking care of his practice engrosses his attention a part of the time, then he bus!es himself assisting th, carpenters! at work on the new addition to his resi dence. Doc does the heavy work hands the lumber to the workmen. 3E 21 61t ; , f Aeniversairv c mm?. , I 'I, i u fjiw- i'iffii-f-i s - d' I f si F -i -3 I nr 1 LIVING ROOM FURNITURE Something Exceptional-direct from the Ira F.
