'A COMPARISON
The senii-atiniittl rvpvtof the fi-j
itancial condition of OilIimnciity
fir thesis months ending Mtrch
30, 1891, shows the resource of the
county to be $23,300.11 and th lia
bilities to be $ 12.S19.B2. At that
time Gilliam county tras solvent
-could have paid &U her debt
and had $10,770.49 left' in her
jxcket.
The tax levy for county purposes
made at the meeting of the county
commissioners' court in January
1892 was 12 roills.
Th em-nnual rtport of tb fi
nancial condition of Gilliam county
for the six months ending Sept. SO,
1901, shows the resources of the
county to be $19,000.73 and the lia
bilities to be 133,218.32.
At that time, had Gilliam county
been called upon to liquidate, she
would have found herself short to
tne amount of '$14,157.59.
The tax levy for county purposes
made at the meeting of the count
commissioners' court in January,
was 20 mills.
Ten years ago Gilliam county
was a country of magnificent dis
tances and sparse population. To
day it is about one-third smaller
in area and its development, in
density of population and wealth,
has been great. But in spite of all
this the county has, in ten years,
gone behind to the tune of $24,923
.03 These facts should furnish some
food for reflection to the voters and
tax payers of the county between
now and the second day of June.
The fight for the governorship
between Hon. W. J. Furnish and
. Hon. George E. Chamberlain prom
ises to be a hot one and the general
opinion on the outside among travr
eling men, railroad men and others
who keep in touch with public sen
timent seems to indicate that Cham-
'f berlaia baa m big chance ofjelection
in spite of the fact that Oregon is
strongly republican. This result
is made possible by the wide breach
in the republican party in Multno
mah county and the fact that
Chamberlain is a general favorite
in that county. It is said that the
labor vote will go almost solidly for
him. Portland is the main thing
in Oregon politics.
VOTE FOR THE AMENDMENT
Every voter who believes in the
principle of government by the
people should support the initiative
and referendum amendment to the
constitution at ihe coming election.
If you are in favor of the amend
ment you must be sure and vote
for it as it is not enough that you
do not vote against it. The supreme
court may hold that, to prevail, the
amendment must carry by a major
ity of all those voting at the election.
The Evening Telegram makes this
-point plain by the following:
Suppose 90,000 votes all told are
cast on June 2, and only 60,000 vo
ters vote on the amendment, either
for or against. Will it be necessary
to have in its favor 45,001 votes, a
majority of 90,000, or only 30.001
a majority of 60,000? Probably the
4o,001 votes will be necessary. At
least, it will not be safe to trust
the other proposition being upheld
by the supreme court.
Therefore work is necessary. E v
ery friend of the amendment, every
man in favor of this reform, ought
to work for it, from now on, and
especially work to get out the votes
friendly to it, and see that all vo
ters friendly to it say 'yes' and not
ignore it, as rainy voters ordinarily
do ignore proposed amendments,
not caring whether they are voted
up or down.
There has so far been a disposi
tion to vote down all amendments.
But this is a different proposition.
It is coming a greater degree of
direct legislationthroughout the
country. Let Oregon lead the way.
It will be a big feather in' Oregon's
cap. .
Both Republicans and Democrats
have gone on record as favoring the
reform. They have declared for it,
professed their belief in it; now let
them keep their word throughout
he campaign' and at the polls and
it will win.

rUH LC OWNERSHIP
CbWflo is a big city and it peo
ple are- progressive in more ways
than building sky scraper and
eornering the wheat and hog mar
lel At recent city election held
there- 170,000 voters expressed
thetrselveson the public ownership
(4 public utilities and the re
sult was somewhat astonishing to
many jersons who have not been
keeping up with the trend of pub
lic pinion on Cfiis great question.
The result of the vote was as fol
lows: For public ownership of all
the street railways, 142,826 voted
yes and only 27,993 voted no.
For public ownership of all elec
tric light, heat and power plants
and gas works to furnish light,
heat and power for public and pri
vate use, 139.999 voted yes and on
ly 21,367 voted no. , -
For the nomination of all candi
dates for city offices by a direct
vote of the people at primary elec
tions, 140,860 voted yes and only
17,654 voted no. y ? ; :i V
These figures show that "the
world do move." It is only a few
years ago that the populist party
adopted its first platform wbicb
was the first public endorsement
of these principles and the politi
cians poked all kinds of fun at the
long whiskered pops. Now the
country may expect to see these
same politicians hasten to endorse
and advocate public ownership be
cause the Chicago election is a big
straw which shows that the wind
of public sentiment is blowing that
way so sirongiy mat me politicians
cannot go against it All of which
serves to remind us that all reform
and all real progress for the human
race must come from the people
and not from the politicians AH
professional politicians, great or
small,are enemies of reform and
progress in public affairs for the
reason that the more public affairs
need reform the more money there
is in the administration of such af
fairs for the politicians.
