of large Havings, you Mr. Tax
payer, know bettor than anyone
else whether or not your assess
ed value has been raised in pro
portion, and whether your taxes
have been Idwcred by this chim
erical saving.
! In my declaration of candi
dacy I made the following mod
est statement;
First That I would keep on
the job myself, and eliminate a
head deputy at Twelve Hundred
Dollars per year.
I Second That I would so write
tax rolls, that according to
James C. Parker, Tax Collector,
a man who has had 8 or 10 yeara
experience Jn collecting taxes in
Lane County, had they been so
written he could have saved $2,
000.00 on the expense of tax col
lecting this year alone.
I therefore ask your earnest
'consideration of my declaration
that I could and vould, If nomin
ated and elected Assessor,
REALLY SAVE the taxpayers
during the next term of office at
least $10,000.00.
Yours to help lower taxes,

Tuxedo Nights
by Walt Mason
When the day's work's done, and the good old sun
lias sunk in the well known West, then I stretch my
form by the fireside warm, I sit at my ease and rest.
Then I take my pipe which is mildly ripe, as the pipes
of good smokers are, with a chortling soul then 1 fill
its bowl from my glass Tuxedo jar. And I smoke
ease, and my trouble tiees
the place where dead troubles
go; and my worries seem, in
my waking dream no longer to
have a show. And I say, "In
deed, it's a noble weed that
drives all the ghosts away, and
clamps the lid on the cares
that skid around through the
busy day. The worries and
woes and sucn things as those
in ihe daytime leave their scar, but there's rest at
night and a calm delight in my
glass Tuxedo jar; thfyt.
