We havr talked the hi'.: ith a lar:e number cf peopie from over the county, how ever, ard e t.r.d that there 1? quite a ptrop exr.ent o-ppft 1 to it. and ii wouid turprie us v?ry ir.uch if the measure carries. In the firM place the law i$ thoujrht to be entirely too revolutionary in its neope, and rather than providing a heip to the school system of the county, it will he the reverse. It aeems to be admitted that the prin ciples laid down are. in the main, pood, but urder the law as it now stands it is fer.n-d it will take too long to bnr.p &bout the desired re sults. The aci a? it now appears upon the statute books is admitted by lepul authorities to be faulty and should be amended in many points before being put into operation. It ii really too much of an experiment. Another objection that will stand pood in Morrow county is the pro vision of the law covering the loning of the county and p;acmp the ele mentary' schools in the hands of five men. To get the five men qualified to fill this board who will serve faith fully and do equal justice to ail dis tricts without pay, wiil be next to impossible. This feature places too much power in the hands of a few in the governing of the schools; then also, there is the se lection of the superintendent by this board and the creation of an expensive office with its attendant high costs of mainten ance. This feature will necessarily add to the tax burdens and this is no time for increase in taxes. Why Heppner, Leiinpton, lone. Boardman and Irriron, ail of which towns have high schools conducted under the same roofs and on the ; same grounds as the grade schools, j wouid favor this bill, is hard to figure out. It opens up the way to a lot of controversy and trouble as no school succeeds well under two superin tendents, and this would be the case in these districts. It is argued that this point is of small force, but we have been ur.able to learn that such would not be the ca-e. The law seems to work well in Crook county, but the situation tnere as to tne i high schoois is different. That county has but one high school, a county high school carried on in a separate building from the grades, and the conflicting authority over school man-; agement does not arise. Klamath county is similarly affected as Mor row, and it is understood that the new!y adopted unit system there is not proving satisfactory as yet. All schools of the county should be brought under the operation of the act high schools as well as grade schools placing them all upon a uni form basis ar.d giving equal advant age of education to every part of the county. Then again, we doubt if the sever al districts of this county are ready to surrender their individuality; the school patrons in these districts do not care to have taken from them their right to tay jutt how their schools shall be run and governed. This bill virtually deprives the com munities affected of any voice in their grade schools because the so called local "committees" are only advisory ar.d surrender the present powers of the local boards. Other objections offered are: Thrif ty districts that are out of debt or nearly go wousd have to pay the ob ligations of extravagant districts. It would be taxation without represent ation. It is a long step in the direc tion of state socialism and the con fiscation of land values through vi cious and unwi.-e taxation. Far from reducing or "equalizing" taxation, it will increase taxation.

Tiiere are mar.y other, but a this paper sires up the proposi tion, e believe that the school sys- j tern of the county shou.d be allow- ! ed to go along unciii-turbed by any changes such as are proposed by the county unit, and let those other coun ties who have already adopted the p;n. work it out and prove to us whether or not it is a good thing. Let them pay the bid for the ex perimenting; we have p er.ty of time to wait. $-$-$ STAY WITH HOME MAN. THE fact that Morrow county is tacked on to Umatilla as a part of the twenty-second representative district makes it hard for us to ever have any direct representation in the legislature at Sa'em. Not every elec tion are we fortunate enough to get a man to consent to run from this county that is of proper calibre to rightly represent us, and when we do, loyalty to our own interests, and to the home man should prompt the rcllirtf up of a practically unanimous vote for him. This is one of the years when it is possible to get the right man to consent to make the nice in the pri maries, w. n. narrstt 01 neppner is in the race and we doubt very much if a better man couM have been se cured. Mr. Barratt met with no op position here and his candidacy was largely endorsed by leading citizens of Umatilla county, who were promp ted to assure him that he would have no opponent on the ticket from that part of the district, Mr. Barratt had no particular desire to enter into i hard fought battle for the place, feel ing that he was not justified in doing so, but upon receiving the assurance that he did from Umatilla people, he allowed his name to be presented on the ballot, feeling that he could de pend upon loyal support from his own home county. Through his more than forty years of residence in this district we feel that Mr. Barratt is as well versed in the particular needs of Morrow county as any man that could have been induced to get into the race. At this particular time he is so sit uated as to give time and attention to any legislative affairs that would be for our benefit and his general knowledge of conditions over the en tire district of eastern Oregon makes him a valuable roan. His experience on the state highway commission also peculiarly fits Mr. Barratt for thi legislative position. Numerous im portant changes will be presented be fore the coming session of the leg- ature affecting the highway pro gram and Mr. Barratt will be in posi tion to render good service here, as he well understands what will be necessary to make the future of the state's highway system what it should be. The good work Mr. Barratt did for his home county when on the high way commission a service that was and is appreciated, should entitle him to the hearty support of the republi cans of the county. Let us stay with the Morrow county man and secure at least a little direct representation; a joint representative is all we do get and we should not be the wag end of the Umatilla county dog. We are FOR the home county man first, and his number is 65 on the official ballot. s-s-s COMMUNITY LOYALTY. HAVE you ever Btopped to consider the fact that loyalty to commun ity interests is the highest form of patriotism? Show us the man who is loyal and true to every interest of his own community and we will show you in that same individual a man in whom his country can repose ab solute confidence in any emergency that calls for his allegiance. On the other hand, the man who is careless and unconcerned for the interests of his community is most apt to display the same spirit of in difference toward his government or his state should any serious danger threaten either. Try to imagine an entire state com posed of innumerable communities welded and cemented into a symmet rical whole, each striving to excell the others, but each, from its own local loyalty, developing a broader and deeper loyalty that reaches out and embraces a whole. This would be brought about if we could be brought to see that we owe allegiance to our own people, but that the prosperity and success of others is in no ise a detriment to us. but rather . help, that if each j community would develop itself to j the utmost materially, ment.Uy nd ' morally none would r.eed be envious of others, neither would any need arise, to detract from another's in terest. Let us develop community loyalty to the full the highest possible form of patriotism. Madras Pioneer. $ S-S TUESDAY. May 13, has ben set for the cleaning up of the Heppner cemetery and Mayor Noble has made proclamation declaring a holiday on this date. It will be noted that busi ness houses will not close, but each place of business is requested to let one or two men off for this work, and we feel they will gladly respond. The invitation is also extended to those j outside of the city who are asked ' to come to town on this date and join in the good work. Should the ponse be what it is anticipated. one day will put over the job and the burying ground will be made tidy for the present season at least. A move to put a substantial fence about the cemetery is also on foot, being pushed by parties who will doubtless meet with success. The breaking in of stock running in pas tures surrounding the cemetery has occurred for a good many months past as the old fence has become weak and the posts rotted. It is hoped that sufficient means can be provided to put up a substantial iron fence, thus getting away from the necessity of rebuilding for years to come. s-s-s Mrs. Venice Stiles accompanied her mother, Mrs. Josie Jones, home from Portland on Tuesday, to be pre sent at the burial of her aunt, Mrs. Lillian Conser. She will return to her home in the citv on Sunday. LEGAL NOTICES NOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEMENT.
