DEXTER, Executrix. Listen folks it's a secret.. Once upon a time Editor Jackson boosted for single tax iu Oregon Onco he wailed much after the fashion of his present sobbing, but the voters of the state heeded not. And the press of Oregon poked con siderable fun at Mr. Jackson, which riled him exceedingly. ' And again onle upon a time Editor Jarkson awoke to find that the Multnomah county delinquent tax list publication had beeu legally awarded to his esteemed contempar aries, The Oregonian and The Even ing Telegram. Whereupon Million aire Jackson again gnashed hi3 teeth and hissed "revenge!" And now comes the revenge. It's to be a 'double-barrelled buck-shot revenge, too, if Brother Jackson s scheme is carried out in accordance with his well-laid plans. It's timed and all planned to the minute, and the "zero" hour is set for election day, November 6th, 1918. It's to be a much heralded and mighty drive on the newspapers of Oregon, with Messrs. Jackson & Hagood at the bead of the big push. It's adver- ised almost as much as a certain other big drive in history. It may be as disastrous. The voters of the state are open to argument but they refuse to be coerced e.t Mr. Jackson b Didaiug, knowing the petty spitework behind his plans. Indications are that tliey will vote a most emphatic iNU to each of the Jackson-Hagood meas ures. They believe the newspapers have a righ to live; they know of the splendid work of the Oregon press in supporting the war activities ana loan drives without recompense they know that publication costs have gone skyward, and that rates should be raised, rather than low ered, if the newspapers of the state are to survive. So much for the legal rate bill. They naturally suspect the attor ney's part in tho delinquent tax bill. They know that attorneys and tax title grabbers are close pals as a rule, and they know that the scheme Jackson & Hagood, the lawyer pro pose, would throw the delinquent taxpayer entirely upon the mercies of the title grabber. Jackson would provide delinquency notice by mall. The existing law provides the very same thing, but goes a step further, in the interest of the unfortunate owner whose property has become delinquent and provides that only upon failure of the mail notice, shall publication be made. The voters know that Jackson has for- cotton to mention this fact in his argument. They know, too, that the present law is fashioned to protect the unfortunate delinquent from the tax title grabber and others of his type, and they will refuse point blank to support such a scheme. NOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEMENT Notice is hereby given that the undersigned has filed her final ac count as administratrix of the Estate of Patrick McDaid, deceased, and that the County Court has appointed Monday, the 2nd day of December, 1918, at the hour of 10 o'clock in the forenoon of said day, as the time of hearing and settling said final ac count. Objections to 'said final ac count must be filed on or before said flats. MARY McDAID, Administratrix. and sometimes by direct misrep resentation the voters are led to be lieve that the proposed measure is one originated and to be passed entirely in their own interest. This is the influence that comes from reading the Portland Journal's propaganda for the abolishment of the present delinquent tax bill now in force in the State of Oregon. The editor of this paper is not in the habit of instructing his eaders: how to vote in various elections. j As a rule we consider the voter will support the measures which he be lieves to be of worth, and register his protest with a vigorous "NO" on useless or pernicious legislation. This is the rule usually followed by the country newspaper man, but when direct misrepresentation of fact is resorted to in an effort to lure the favor of the voting public, it is high time that the voters are advised of true conditions. There-! fore the editor of this paper has the following statement to make to the readers of this paper. The present delinquent tax law was passed by the State legislature ot Oregon, the men you and I sent to Salem to represent us in affairs of Gtate. It is a fair law, devised in the in terest of the tax payer, to give him a square deal in the hour of emer gency, and to protect him in that our from the tax title vulture and the scheming land attorney. It provides for the publication of the delinquent tax list, it is true, but it also provides and this is tho part of the law the Portland Journal uld have you overlook that publication of the delinquents shall I only be made after a mailed notice has been sent out, regularly advising e delinquent that his taxes have been paid. The publication, therefore is but an emergency meas ure, to be resorted to only when per sonal notice has failed to notify. The taxpayer should quickly realize the practical value of s.uch a law. Suppose you are away for the time being. Or let us assume you have changed your address. In eniier caso a mailed statement would in all probability fail to reach you. Some time later, the delinquent lii.t is published in your home paper, and our friends, relatives, or neighbors. nonce immediately that you have over-looked your taxes, and hasten to drop you a line. They know where you are the tax collector dosen't bother about you unless you notify him of the change. The result? The tittle grabber, that peculiar pest who is always loitering about the books in the tax office, loses a chance to buy in your place for a song, and you are saved the embarrasment and work of re deeming your place. This is the present law, and this is exactly the way it works out. Jackson, working with a certain Portland attorney would cut out the publication requirement of the present law. He would end the mat ter once and for all with the sending of notice through the mail. If you i fail to get It, under his scheme, you are the loser, and the tax title vul-; ture will then pick up some easy money and you will foot the bill. Such is the bill proposed by Jackson and Hagood. Kill it if you would confer a favor on the taxpayers of Oregon. Vote "NO on the Jackson delinquent bill.

There is a scheme on foot to wipe out the present delinquent tax law now In effect in the state of Oregon. Those behind the plan would sub stitute in its place a piece 'of per nicious legislation, cleverly devised by the Portland Journal and a cer tain clique of politicians. ' The scheme Is a clever one at first observation and by reason of the fact that one of the backers ot the proposed change is a man ct in dependent wealth at the head of a Portland paper, the columns of that paper the Portland Journal have been thrown open to further the measure ana Deiuaaie tue voters minds at the coming election By, Hundreds More in Heppner in the Same Plight.
