THE SCHOOL TAX MKASUUE 'i It Is an Interesting fact that tho four mensuros on tho coniluK pri mary ballot which can tor wio levy of additional taxes are all on be half of education. Tho hlpher ed ucational tax net proposes to levy n tax of 1.2 mills tor the support of tho University of Oregon nnd the Oregon ARriculturnl coIIcko nnd .Ofi for tho State Normal school. Tho poldlors, sailors and marines' educn 'tlonal nld revenue bill levies a .2 mill tax for the purposes stated in tho title; tho blind school tax meas .uro levies a one-sixth mill tax for tho erection ot a building for a blind trchool nnd n one-twenty-fifth milt tax for Its maintenance: the state elementary school tax fund levies n two mill tax for the support of pub lic elementary schools. Wo have spoken several times al ready of the hlpher educational tax act. The Commercial club and the Timberworkers nre ninonc local or-s-nnlxations that have Riven It their 'Indonsement. It hns received al most universal approval, the only opposition we have so far heard ot jrominj; froiri a set of moss-backed tight wads in Marion county. Sup .part in an equal degree should be given to the elementary school tnx, which, in n way. supplements the other bill In our state educational orly owners benefited, There is still mi other class ot Improvement for which the geunral fund Is bear ing an unnecessary expense, duo to delays ot one sort or another, that should be ended nt once. These nre tho Improvements, being made and to be paid fur iMillcr tho linn croft net. $ " Under the llnncrotl act, ns we unttCMviiiiHl It, bonds nre Issued to secure the repnyment of advances made for tho construction of Im provement., as. fftr instance, ,thi sldoAvnlk around tho block in which Tile Bulletin building Is located The property owner may elect to pay In full and relieve his propel ty from the bond Issue, or he may pay tu equal. Installments cneriig n pe riod of years. The bonds can bear Interest, ot course, only from their date. In the time Intervening between the beginning of construction and the Issuance of the bonds, or tho summons to the property owner to pay. city warrants nre Issued to pay for the work as it goes along, and on these warrants Interest is paid until the bonds are Issued to take their place. Wo ure advised that the bonds, when Issued, do not In clude any of the Interest charges paid on the warrants, or. at any rate, do not Include extra Interest charges. These, then, are carried In the general fund. As we see It. the economical thing to the city Is to rush the completion of an Improvement when It has once been begun nnd. as soon ns possible, to Issue the Bancroft Id the fact that repair) hud extra construction expense ,tor the benefit of this comparatively small oliu-s or ot users coiuu out of thu taxes. Tlie public, however, does not give much uvldencu of Interest and about nil That can be done Is to follow tin course of tho State Hltfhwuy eoniiuls- utflll .lillllit na lumvllv nu tin, fmifl will nllow and wait to see what will ALFALFA TONNAGE happen. - " SULPHUR BIG 1 CROP BOOSTER is THE SALVATION AUMY. fi drive tors thu, Sal vat leu Army Is to begin soon, Bund and Don- ! chutes county should be ashamed If there Is any delay In raising the quota assigned. In the Salvation Arm' tlrlve of 10 IS tho county led tho state In speed of subscription and amount oversubscribed. It should do SO MgHlll. The roiiMius why this shoud be s are many, hut one Is enough, that is, because the army Is taking a place In the social work of tho day Hint en titles It to recognition and assistance. Its work Is broad, free, humanitarian, and no questions asked. Too often Is work of this same nature under taken In the spirit described in the couplet: "Organized charity, scrimped mid Iced, "In the name of a cautious, Mstlstl- cnl Christ." The Salvation Army Is not that kind. It Is organised, hut In another way. Organized to give tho maximum of service. The drum and tniuboiirliiu nro no longer Its symbols.

In POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS bonds, so that the expense may be n!ehl out to all mankind carried by the property owner. Every day of delay In construction, after It Is once begun, nnd ot delay in Issuing the bonds after construc tion, is done, is an expense to the general taxpayer which he ought not to have to bear. Let us give to this worthy eauxe. system. Jt,,-The object Bdiool tax measure of the elementary Is to caus all property in the state to contribute to a fund which will be divided among the school districts on the basis of the number of teachers em ployed, instead of contributing merely toward the support of the teacher in the district where the property is located. Its effect iishould be the aid of needy districts 'by others which have good proper ty values. Undoubtedly, the measure had its inception in thfr tled for Increas ing the pay of the teachers in dis tricts that were having difficulty' lu raising the necessary funds, and ob jection might be made on the ground that it Is unfair to make a a rich district support a poor one. Back of the measure, however, there is a broader idea, namely, that the whole state is interested in the proper education of its youth, and the whole stato should con tribute equally toward that end. On that basis the measure should receive the support of the whole state. TIIUCKS AND UOAnS. Ono of the biggest road problems of the day is that caused by the motor truck. Heavier and more heavv trucks are put In use every ywir find the loads they carry increns- with the carrying capacity of the vehicle. This means that every year an extra burden is put on tho roads that were not iPltnuud. or. built with any such an tdenin mind. r , ' Tho force of the blow that Is struck by the hard tire of u loaded ! jay f t could get them I' I Fifteen Years Ago j UNNECESSARY EXPENSE truck has been determined. It Is an almost unbelievable figure and thj wonder Is that our roads do not go to pieces fuster under thu pounding they get fromtheie wheels,,. This pounding nnd the swift friction ot the tires of n speeding car do more than anything elso to tear up thu roads their drivers want put in good shape. On new construction tho immedi ate problem is what to build for. Is It enough to build for today's require ments or fdiould a type of construc tion in advance of today's needs lie adopted? If the future Is to bo pro vided for, who can say what weight truck Is to be used? Or will leglsia- jtlon limit the weight that may be put on a road In u truck? Another problem lu n country where the roads ure frequently crossed by Irrigation ditches and canals. Is in connection with tho Yesterday, we spoke of the loss I Incurred by the taxpayers of the bridges. Almost daily a report comes city through tho delay and failure! in that u truck has gone through a bridge. What sort of repairs shall bo mado or shall steps be tnken to limit tho weight of the load? Tho public interest, of course, is to collect Hens payable on account of various improvements, cleanups and other municipal work done by the city and charged to the pros- (Krom the columns of The Bulletin of April 28. 1005.)
