No one district wants to hog it all, but any district that sets idle and makes no effort to secure its share, will have a long and impatient wait to have it thrust upon them. Now if this newly organized tax league is to look over the needs of all the dis tricts and recommend to the court equality of division so that each district will get its rightful share then we be lieve something has been accomplished that we may well feel proud of. To attend a budget meeting and every district represented make its damads on the county court by resolutions and motions will only work out when the funds of the county are without limit. So long as their is a limit to tha amount of money the county court has to spend each road district must take ite share and be satisfied until the iollow- ing year for more. >C »'I I i n The History of the World From the Dawn of Creation until The Great W ar Is depicted in art, science and industry and presented in wonderful colors PAATA. 1 1 A -P A C IF IC E X P O S IT IO N San Francisco This wonderful Exposition closes Dec. 4th D on ’ t M iss It Lest you always look back to 1915 with regret Scenic Shasta Route READ READ Through the wonderful Valleys of the Wil lamette, the Sacramento, the Umpqua and the Rogue offers exceptional diversion.

Stevens, of Portland, is travel ing over Tillamook county organizing tax leagues. The importance of this undertaking will depend on the earnest ness of each league and as to how closely they follow out the precepts of the second clause of their by-laws, which reads as follows: “ The object of this organization is to discuss taxes, assist in the development of the resouroes of the county, and assist the county court and the other county officials in an economical ad ministration of county affairs. To give our support to all needful economical development engaged in by the county, and condemn all unnecessary and waste ful undertakings.” : This part of the by-laws we are in By hearty accord, in so far as it is to assist MARIA THOMPSON the county court and officials. We have always felt that it would be an excellent DAVIESS plan to have an organization, you may Author of “ The Melting call it a tax league or whatever you of Molly” wish, ta be composed of the taxpayers of each district, to meet and discuss maUers that would come up at the Copyright, 1913, by the Century budget meeting, then present their Com pany agreement to the budget meeting. Re ferring to the last budget meeting, we can sav without fear of contradiction, that it resulted not in what would be the desire desire of the taxpayers. Mo tions were made in order and out of or der and one motion piled on top of an other until their was neither head nor tail to anything. We do not expect this new tax league to assume a ditatorial attitude nor would we countenance any such organ ization. We have a county court duly elected by majority votes of the people of the county and to hinder them in their progress would be only retarding our own prosperity. The by-laws also read that the organ ization desires the co operation of every taxpayer in the county, resident or non resident. This is certainly commend able.
