Next Tuesday, June 7. the voters of Oregon will pans upon five meas ures submitted to them by the leg islature of last winter. The first on the list la to increase the legislative term to 60 «lays In stead of the present lu-day term, and to increase the legislator's pay from $3 to |5 per day. The Tribune opines that Oregon now has too many laws, many of which conflict with each other simplv because the lawmakers were ignor ant of statutory laws already on the bocks A better plan would be to submit the proponed law of one ses sion to lie finally named upon at the session two ^ears later. By that time any confliction or deficiency of the prunaed law will ba ascertained. The pay increase is a mistake. Just as good material can lie secured at <3 per day as at $f>. Anyway a legislature can do harm enough in 40 days. A 60-day session will only make a bad matter worse. The second measure submitted is the soldier bonus act. The soldier boys who went from Oregon were enlisted by the United States gov ernment and all pay, bonus, or other emoluments, should be drawn from the general government. The world war veterans do not claim anything la due them from the state of Ore gon other than the gratitude of the people. Yet they are trying to ex ploit this gratitude. Our state has provided for the education of all the soldier boys, or such aa wish it, at a large expense They simply are try ing to get while the getting is good. They are not willing to wait a few years until taxpayers get over or have become reconciled to the road bond propositions because. aa one of these vets said at the legislature last winter "We can’t get it then.” Roth of the above cited measures will increase taxation and every tax payer will say "We have already reached the limit In that respect." To add 130,000.000 more of bonds for thia purpose simply means prac tically a Cessation of bond issues for road building and • general dosing down of slate improvementa. On both of these measures self interest dictates the taxpayer to vote "No,” just the same aa the veteran and hie relatives will vote "Yes." The third constitutional amend ment. if carried, will enable the gov ernor to veto the emergency clause when attached to a proposed law without vitiating the rest of the measure II will enable the people to referend a measure, whereas the emergency danse would prevent the reference to the people. The Trib une thinks this amendment should be passed. « The measure $04-306. known as . I-------------------------- Dr. P. I Tweed, 0. V. IN.
