CAPITALIZE THE QUARTER
SHARE
, Sooner or later, If Deschutes
county Is to continue to cooperato
-with, .tho state highway commission
In the construction of stnto hlgh-
ways, It must Issue more bonds to
provide cooperative funds. Crook
county, aa wo havo pointed out bo
lero, has porio the limit, and to that
fact Is largely duo Its success In
obtaining state aid on Its roads.
Deschutes Btlll has a bonding ca
pacity ot over 1400,000 and It
Must Bhortly consider whether It
cares to add to Its present bond
debt of $125,000. Only by doing
HtTVlll It bo able to obtain state
road money.
Ono ot the first thoughts any tax
payer will have when a new bond
Issue Is proposed will be concern
ing its effects on his taxes. In theso
days, when all things cost so much,
sad taxes, with everything else, are
so high, he wHl1hes'I'tate"to add to
tols burdens, oven for good roads.
.If, on the other hand, dig could bo
shown a plan that meant" road bond
' money and no taxes, ho ought to
bo ready to vote for It unhesitat
ingly. We have such a plan. It Is simp
ly to follow the same course the
state Is following In capltallrlng
automobile license fees.
"Under existing law the county re
ceives one-quarter ot all auiomo
bllo license fees and Tprocceds ot
the gasoline tax. Tb'e other three
quarters are usd by the, state to
pay Interest and principal of .road
hond Issues. Why should not Des
chutes county proceed on the same
course the Btatc Is taking and Is
Hue bonds, to be paid for out ot Its
quarter share ot this fund?
On present Information it seems
clear that tho county could lssuo
$100,006' In bonds, which would bo
cared for by this fund. The ex
act 'amount would depend on tho
number of automobile registrations,
'rate of Interest to be paid and 'oth
er factors which may be deter
mined.' If 'and when this Is donp. and
our bonds Voted, we shall bo In po
sition to cooperate without having
any new expense added to our tax
budget. The only loss. It it may
bo called a loss, will he to our
general road fund, which will no
longer receive this quarter share
for general road work. Such work,
however,- sbpuld bo cared for from
our genera) fund as raised in the
county.
DOES BEND CARE?
' Persons who are In position to
know say that moral conditions In
Bend are not good. We are told
that young boys and girls havo
Bono completely out fom parental
control and that tbefg conduct Is
such as to lead them to physical
and moral rulOyiln the recent
Red Cross lecture course it was
brought' oat that there bad been
1G0 arrests for Juvenile delinquency
in tho past year. Three girls, from
15 to 18 years old, one In a con
dition that will not bear descrip
tion and the others on tho down
ward patb'were ft'cently sent to
Portland for necessary care and at
tention.. fTbero are stUl others
who, with their male companions,
are an equal menace to society.
What does Bend care? ' r
iWhat will Bend do about It?
'What interest will .Bend show In
the young girl, left motherless a
fear or so ago, forced to stay away
from,. school to do work at home,
with no parental care, no under
standing, and no opportunity for
Recreation or pleasure other than
that which sho finds in tho com
panionship of the street and the
dance.
Rend will give its thousands for
n rattle show and fair. Its women
will Join in club work, its men in
community promotion. But all this
Isf above tho surface. And la it
that' wo ' ltyo only on tho surface?
There Is a' life underneath Unit,,
,overy now and again, breaks
through. Are we for bringing it up
liito the light and keeping It there?

COLLECT THE-LIENS
( One' of tho 'most Interesting fea
tures of tho report on tho recent
ly completed city audit Is tho state
ment ot tho amount of lions still
duo tho city for cleanup work,
sower and sidewalk construction,
street sprinkling and other "PccliU
assessment!. Some of these Ittins
run us far back us. 191C. Indeed ft
there aro two Items still duo from
tho sower construction of 1918?
Tho total amount remaining unpaid
is $3783.04. while the, t8iim ot
$414.15 for cleanup work In 191S
has been charged off.
This means that for periods up
to throe years tho general tax
payers of tho city havo been carry
lug tho amounts duo on theso vari
ous assessments for tho benefit ot
tho few specially assessed. Fur
thermore, since that means n re
duction of the city's general fund In
tho amount of JS7S3.04, there has
been a loss to the city at n consid
erable Item of Interest paynblo on
the warrants thnt have been left
unpaid because of thU deficit In
tho general fund.
For the most part the persons
who owe on these assessments nre
perfectly able to pay. One thing
tho city can do at once toward re
lieving its straightened financial
condtlon is to collect these liens.
The audit report Is a comprehen
sive statement of the city's finances.
The mayor and council are to bo
congratulated on having taken this
forward step toward better busi
ness administration and a better
understanding ot tho financial sit
uation. Fred Locklcy. as a candidate for
secretary of state, ought to show
up well in the running. He Is
known all over the state; he did
war work at home ami In France:
he Is no politician's candidate he
Is Just a plain, simple, common sort
of human, with n soul overflowing
with friendship and sympathy for
his fellow humans.
"We arise to Inquire," says the
Portland Telegram, "If the two
should meet now, what would tho
governor of North Carolina' say to
itfe 'covornor of South Carolina?' "
Just exactly what they said the?
first time, wo should suppose,
namely: "It's 'a of a long
time between drinks."
Publicity matter In support of
tho Johnson candidacy for presi
dent has been flooding the malls
recently. Since most of It Is de
voted to knocking Herbert Hoover,
It would seem that Hiram Was
afraid .of his fellow California!!.
A new system In the Klamath
Falls telegraph office will double
its efficiency, says an exchange.
Wonder If the systom could not bo
Installed In a telephone office, too?
What's the use ot buying over
alls when you are wearing nothing
but old clothes, anyway?
Fifteen Years Ago
(From the columns of The Bulletin
of April 21, 1905.)
A petition is today being signed
by taxpayers of this 'school dis
trict asking that qn election he
called to vote on the question of
bonding for a new schoolhousc. The
limit asked for is $3500 - .
..The jiew Bend-Laldlaw telephone
line was opened for business last
Saturday. There was free service
the first" day and plenty of people
availed themselves of the privilege
of talking to the other town.
The Bulletin Is In recejpj of a
letter from a man In position to
Judge pretty accurately of develop
ment projects in Centra! Oregon
in Which the belief Is stated that
tho Croat Southern wlll build on
out from Dufur.
The big auto car for tho Bend

every Wtf&re ;he peasant and patrician are both in

Tnechurch bolls do not ring; no smithy fires are
burning, no workmen's hammers swing; but gloom
is all-prevailing, and wrath and bitter wailing; men
are so busy railing they do not smile and sing. I
ought to view with sorrow the troubles of the Hun,
and say I hope tomorrow will see his anguish done;
and yet I see him sweating without a great regret
ting; he earned what .he is getting, earned trouble
by the ton. Had he but shown repentance for any
crimes of his, had he received his sentence with a
remorseful phiz, I might compose a ditty of con
dolence and pity, more generous than twitty, but
as things are Gee whiz! The Hun has been so
sassy, so nervy and so smart, he thinks himself
so classy, and greater-than-thou-art, that it is hard
to view him with sympathy, beshrew him! so let
his woes pursue him until his change of heart.

Editorial
Put the blame where it belongs.
You are not responsible for the deeds of your
neighbor, either js your neighbor account
able for your own debts.
This is as it should be. It's putting the
blame where it belongs.
There is no doubt a great deal of profiteer
ing is going on these days, and tho jaif is too
good for any man who deliberately takes ad
vantage of the helpless public in this way.
This store, for one, resents literally the accu-,
sation, frequently made, that the retail mer
chant is a profiteer, on the grounds that he is
totally at the mercy. of the jobber and manu
facturer. We have absolutely no control over the pro
duction cost, which has.been, and w.ill continue
to be, passed on to the ultimate consumer.
Every care is exercised in buying merchan
dise, on which we must make a fair and legiti
mate .profit. Let the investigation extend Jtp
the books of -the producer and the profiteer.
