The Prlncvlllo News, once Review, seems bent upon dusting- despite the avowed disapproval of somo of Its financial backers. Of course the cleansing Is to be along political lines; there never yet was a new edi tor In an old community who could resist setting tho political world aright. So even If Prlncvlllo folks who understood they were going to draw a paper that would boost their town first, last and all tho tlmo seem destined for disillusionment, it's nt least posslblo some amusement will bo forthcoming. It was generally stated that Mr. Pollard was going to "show up" some county affairs. Avowedly ho was hunting the goats of certain offlclals, when ho entered tho newspaper field. nd now. In a homo grown cartoon, the new spokesman of truth and vir tue Indicates that poor old Crook county Is laboring under the burden of n subsidized press, which, presum ably is protecting some oi mesu uu clals. Isn't that awful- Trusting read er, do you realize what hat means? You, who have road Tho Bulletin, tho Crook County Journal or tho Madras, Pioneer havo been feeding your minds upon tainted and Impure news! Not only have tho sins of this subsidized press been sins of commis sion, but those of omission as well. The cartoon In question pictures tho bloated press (wearing a silk hat, it you please!) suppressing "court house news." In the shape of a cat which It refuses to let out or the ba-r. evidently because the "county court" orders Its suppression. To be shown up in this way Is ap palling! Of course, since Judge Springer has been telling folks what he thinks of us, we've become rather hardened to adverse criticism, but our editorial heart does bleed for our fellow offenders. Think of gentle Editor Grey, of the Journal, or How ard Turner of Madras! Consider the disgrace of this exposure- Will they ever contrive to set themselves right with the constituency? But here is one query. The News Is evidently bursting with Information. The rest of us aro suppressing county court news, he alleges. Now, by all means let Mr. Pollard cut the cat out of the bag. If ho has some stench to stir up, some mud to sling, some scandal to unearth, let him to at It. As wo recall a recent campaign in which he was an unsuccessful candidate for county office, he Is experienced in this sort of thing on the eve of elec tion. Thus far the News has contained about as much news as a bill of lad ing, and as much cohrt house Infor mation as a coroner's report. We thrill with anxious anticipation while we await tho righteous exposure, ap parently promised. Incidentally, we trust it may not be an exposure of Ignorance. Tho News states that "County offl clals have been making asiee of themselves." Granted In part; for many months we have remarked upon the braying aslnlnty of the old Jack leader. By Innendo, the News Inti mates that one had better vot4 against the present sheriff, and wa suppose the comment concerning "holding offlce by divine right" Is intended for Warren Brown. (So far the News Is a trifle Indefinite.) Hos tility to Commissioner Bayley Is slightly less veiled. As O. Springer Is not up for re-election, the endorse ment of that worthy economist, which otherwise would be Inevitable, Is not forthcoming. "Economy" la the watchword. High taxes are deplored. At editorial ad vice to tho erring voter, thero Is n familiar ring to that sort of thing. However, an exponent of stalwart In tegrity like Mr. I'r.llard need not concern himself with being original! We only wish he would toll us more specifically exactly how county affairs should be conducted. But onough. A closing paragraph hum tlin nriltnrlnl in thn NftWB alone need bo added; It Indicates, with. some rnetortcai contortion, uisu uuor all honosty doesn't matter If one can get away with It! Here Jt Is: "Voters, think! It Is not a matter of whether our offlclals havo been honest or dishonest as some seem to think. It Is a matter of whether or not good business Judgment has been ejcerclsed." ;? It la truo thnt those particular re marks wero mnilo many yenra ago nnd their authors nro no longer pres ent to claim membership In our pro posed club, but words of equal wis lom nro spukon dally on tho tnrlff, banking, the trusts, nnd many other subjects of less Importance, nud It seems tilting thnt somo recognition of them be made. Oregon Itself Is still under discus sion, though n somowhnt more limit ed area than that covered by the name when Daniel Webster refused to tnko Btops to bring It nenror to Boston. What would ho now say could ho soo tho city that the flip of a coin named Portland lustond of Boston, or tho sen side city that hours t.io name of bis own homo town, Mnrshlleld. One of tho well known portraits of Daniel shows him In an exceedingly largo boavor hat. It seems clear that nt times his talking was dono through It, Of llko nature are Professor Khnrn'a words on tho "desolation" of Central Oregon, to one who can stand on a Illnghnm mil ami over look tho green Holds and marshes thnt itnnlni- ilwt nnlehlvnrlnir Charles river, tho sago brush nnd sand may spell desolation, but to tho landless man It means homo and a futuro. Wn wUii wn inlelit lournov with tho professor over Oregon GO years from now. it seems a fair moral to draw that vou must uot bo too suro thnt every thing Is no good, especially In Oregon. OREGON'S LEAD. Tho crop report publlshod olse- whoro In this paper Is worthy of caro- ful study by everyone Interested In Oregon. SInco only two of the 14 Items relate to crops In tho goneral acceptance of tho term. It might be better to call It a stock report. And It Is as such that It has Its chief In terest. The condition of stock on April 1, with tho wlntor Just over, Is a pret ty good Indication of tho sort of wln tor It has had to endure and tho loss by exposure Is another. Orogon'a figures on these two points stand up well with those of the rest of tho country, both as to the present year, and In the 10 year avorage. It Is In tho swine figures that tho greatest dlfferonco occurs. Though tho condition Is roughly tho same, tho losses by dlseaso aro nonrly flvo times greator In the United States than In Oregon. Last year thoy wero four times greater. That means one big thing that Oregon swine en joy a raro freedom from dlsonse and points to another that dlseaso must be kept out.

P. II. DENCKR. -- .- I , TAXES. Tho tabulation of taxes appearing elsewhere In this paper, tells the story for Crook county. In consid ering It, there nro three things to note. The flrst Is that In six yonrs the amount of tax has Increased al most four fold. The second Is that percentage of Increaso Is approxi mately the same each year. Tho third is thit tho county conrt Is not responsible for even half of the tax. The first fact is startling and dis quieting. One cannot but wonder where we will be six years from now. The second, while no special sat isfaction, at least shows that no sud den oxtravagance has developed, it Is not the officials of this year, or of any ono year, who are responsible for a notably heavy expenditure. The third Is well worth consider ing, when we all are apt to blame "high taxes" upon the county com missioners. For It Is a fact thnt the county court has to do with the ex penditure of only -II per cent of all the taxes collectable on the rolls of 1913. The rest of the taxes origin ated from acts of the people (a school levies) and from the state authorities, as previously pointed out In The Bulletin.
