STATEMENT 110. 1
FOR THE PEOPLE
Enables the Passing
of Good Measures.
UNIVERSITY APPROPRIATION
I Winning Favor Granges
Nov took on this Matter In
, Different Light.
. It seems to be the general dis
cussion all over the state as to
whether Statement No.l and
Initiative and Referendum are
wise measures. The majoriry of
the large city papers seem to. be
against these provisions while
the country press as a rule sup
ports them. Some of tho provi
sions passed by the Initiative are
the direct primary law itself, the
local option law and a law levy
ing a tax upon the gross earnings
of telegraph, telephone and ex
press companies," thus bringings
thousands of. dollars into the
state treasury where before the
state received nothing. There
are nineteen different laws to be
voted upon at the coming elect
ion. Some of them have merits
while others have none and
among the latter is what is
called the "Recall Law". There
is no doubt that there will be
provisions passed by the people
that are without merit but the
Bame thing can be said of our
legislature. Such a law as the
one passed by the people levy
ing a tax on telegraph, tele
phone and express companies,
in all probability would never
have been passed by the legis
lature on account of these com
panies having plenty of money,
thus being able to block all pro
posed legislation introduced into
either house of the legislature
that was or would be derogatory
to their interests.
It is a fact that three-fourths
of the states in the Union, Ore
gon being among them, have
passed resolutions asking that
Federal constitution be amended
thus allowing the U. S. Senators
to be elected by thepopular vote
of the people, but the amend
ment has never been made.
However the direct primary law
of the Btate of Oregon gives the
people of this state that right.
People of ordinary intelligence
can readily make up their minds
whether these are wise measures
or not. - - 1
Another provision coming be
fore the people will be the Uni
versity of Oregon Appropriation'
Bill. The former bill called for
$125,000 for the year 1907 and
annually thereafter. The Grange
thought this was too much of a
drain on the people and had the
bill referendumed. This subject
is also one of much discussion
throughout the state. Those in
favor of the bill, as it formerly
stood, say that if the state of Or
egon has a university, it should
be among., the best. Others,
while willing to concede " this,
say that according to the num
ber of students at the university j
the amount of the former appro
priation was larger than necces
Bary. The Grange, although
formerly standing firm as a body
against the bill, are now split
up..; ; .

Notice te Subscribers
A recent ruling by the Post
Office Department restricts the
extension of credit by newspaper
publishers to their subscribers to
a period not to exceed one year
from the date to which the sub
scription is paid. When a sub-
criber is one year in arrears his
narite must be dropped or a one-
cent stamp must be affixed to
each copy of the paper mailed to
him. This, of course is prohibit
ive, and as a faiure to observe
the ruling would result in being
denied the. second-class postage
rate, a strict compliance with the
rule is necessary. The rule went
into effect January 1st with April
1st named as the final limit for
complying with its provisions.
Everyone receiving the Globe
knows whether he is in arrears
or not, if you are see that you
do the right thing by settling
up your accounts on subscription.

Rotfert Henry Robinson
Robert Henry Robinson
Thursday evening between nine
and ten o'clock from the effects
of pneumonia. He was 33 years
1 month and 28 days of age. He
was sick but a very short time,
being able to be out on the street
on Monday of this week. The
funeral services were held from
the residence at 4 o'clock this
afternoon. Deceased was a
prominent lodge member and
was well known throughout the
county having been in the jewel
ry business in this city for sever
al years. "
Reminder of Former Days. :
Tuesday night about 9 o'clock,
there was five or six shots, fired
on the -streets of MitchelL The
shooter commenced the fusilade
near the City Hotel and kept it
up until lie passed W. L Camp
bell's residence. The man was
evidently intoxicated, asnosoVr
man would hardly think of doing
such a thing in open violation of
the law and to the great danger
of taking human life, for surely
a man that will do that way can
have no idea of the direction in
which he is shooting. The party
is well known. How long will
such things continue the people
want to know. Mitchell Senti

New Feature Added to Globe.
Look up the Globe's "Want
Column" in this issue. We have
decided to give one column ex
clusively to Wants lost and
found notices, stray notices, for
sale notices, help wanted, etc
The lost, found, for sale and es
tray notices that have appeared
in the Globe during the past six
months have given such satis
faction in every way bringing
such good results that this column
will be made a strong feature.
C. W. Young, who last week
advertised some Mammoth
Bronze Tom turkeys for sale, re
ports that he has sold over half
of his turkeys to people who read
the "ad" in the Globe, . We are
looking forward to even better
success in the future by devot
ing special live space to these
notices a place where they will
readily be seen and read,
