MORROW COl'KTT OFFICIAL PAPER AawrtUilif Rpt" iitAtly THE AKKKK AN 1'kKSS ASSOCIATION Prospects for a political scrim mage in .Morrow count)' have brightened materially during the week and e have promise that there will be sufficient interest aroused over one or tw o offices to get out the vote. If this shall prove to be the result it will be a good thing. There has been a ten dency of late years toward a ne glect of duty on the part of a great many, and elections have been passed over to the minority. There have been too many slackers, and this condition has prevailed in Morrow county. It takes a red hot fight to get the vote out and we have promise that this will be the case. Wm. Ball announced his candidacy for the sheriff's office last week, and his numerous friends have been very busy in outlining a plan of campaign for him; they state very freely that they expect to put him over and if he fails at the polls it will not be on account of their leaving un done anything that ought to have been done to secure his election. Mr. Ball is a native Morrow coun ty man, was born here 44 years ago and his residence has been continuous in Heppner. For 29 years of this time he has been a fixture in the store of Minor & Co., and at present is holding down his place behind the counter with M. D. Clark, successor to the old firm. He is well known in the county, and though he gets into the running at a late hour, it is anticipated by his friends that he will make a strong race. Sheriff McDuffee also has a strong fol lowing, and we are given to under stand that his friends will not fail to see that he has every bit of sup port that is is possible to gather in for him. By virtue of his exper ience in the office for several years past, Mr. McDuffee has a good lead off. Add to this the fact that he was in the primary and receiv ed both the republican and demo cratic nominations, he would seem at this time to have the advantage and may reasonably be expected to receive the endorsement of the people at the election a month hence. Oppostion has also sprung up for the office of justice of the peace at Heppner and petitions were circulated this week placing the name of Harvie Young on the ticket as an independent, and a contender for the place of Alex Cornett, who has presided over the jutice court of this district for several terms. This contest prom ises to be rather lively, too. Another county off.ee that has assumed the proportions of a three cornered fight is that of county school superintendent, Mrs. Shurte having decided to throw her bon net in the ring. She makes an nouncement this week to that ef fect and her name will be on the ballot as an independent, and a contender against Mrs. Walker, who received the republican nom ination at the primaries, and Mrs. Clark, the democratic nominee. This creates room for some more guessing on the part of the politi cal wiseacres of the county. For the offices of county judge, county clerk and county commis sioners there will be contests, so the election promises to be far from a cut and dried affair after all. And the interest is growing in the national campaign all the while and the electorate will yet be stirred up sufficeint heat to get to the polls in large numbers on election day. 5 5 5 . HOW TO REDUCE TAXES. Repeal the income tax and thereby encourage outside capital to come in, thus increasing our taxable wealth and reducing our tax burden, Or Keep the income tax and there by discourage outside capital from coming in, thus retarding increase of taxable wealth and delaying re lief from our tax burden. Which of the foregoing seems more likely to reduce our taxes? Only by encouraging outside capital to come in can we expect to gain our share of prosperity and growth. If we impose l handicap on investment and our competing slates have no such handicap, where w ill outside capital eo? We want all the prosperity we can get in Oregon, and prosperity loliows in the wake of industrial investment. If outside capital pi.un into uregon, everyone in Oregon is mure prosperous. There ii more demand for farm products ana moa demand for farm prop crty If ve continue to set up a bar against outside capital coming in, it will go elsehere Oregon will lag behind, the market for farm products ill be limited and there will be little or no demand for farm property. Repeal the state income tax law it is a bar to Progress and a bar to tax relief. s-s-s LET'S MOVE TO EL' ROPE. If voters of the country will follow the speeches of La Follette through the campaign, they will make up their minds before No vember 4 they cannot vote for him. In his first public appearance re cently as a candidate when he spoke in New York at Madison Square garden, he pointed to Eu rope as setting an example for us to follow. He said: "The greatest inspiration of the world today is the fact that in every quarter of the globe the peo ple are gaining control of their governments and bending their energies to prevent another world catastrophe. Within the last year reactionary governments have been displaced by progressive gov ernments in England, France, Aus tria and South Africa. On every side we see a reawakening of the people, a rebirth of genuine denv ocracy." If LaFollette would European ize Amerca, he will have to show us several things first. One of them is why it is that all Europe is crazy to get into America, which LaFollette holds is the land of the down-trodden and the home of the slave. If Europe has found such good governments, why was it neces sary for us to put into effect a stringent immigration law to keep out these hordes of people who are apparenly sitting very pretty at home, according to the LaFollette idea? If Europe right now is basking in the sunlight of pure democracy and we Americans are so oppress ed, why is it that our people are not rushing over to Europe on every boat to settle in that favored land? There is nothing to keep us but. We could just as well as not get onto that continent and make it our happy home. France has had its ideal govern ment for quite a while, perhaps a year, England a lesser time but certainly for months. Russia has been enlightened for years. Why are we so stupid as to stay here in America and suffer all these wrongs? Who is there so dull that would trade his American birthright for everything that Europe has to of fer to a citizen? The fact is there is not a workingman in all Europe who owns an automobile. His wages will not average more than $1 a day and gasoline costs about that on that continent. Commend us to Andrew Gump, who said a mouthful when he de clared the person who says Amer ica is not good enough for him had better spend 24 hours a day trying to be good enough for America. w DO WE REMEMBER? If memory were not so short, every voter when he goes to the polls November 4 will recall the chaotic conditions that prevailed when the Republican administra tion, came into office little more than three and a half years ago. The party faced a deplorable situation. First of all needs of the hour was a business-like way of handling public finances. Chas. G. Dawes was called upon to set up she budget machinery, which he did with his usual efficiency. A policy of rigid economy was put into effect. The first year of the budget op eration, appropriations by Con gress were $714,000,000 less than for the previous year, and many departments returned unexpended money the first time in history thir had occurred. Under President Coolidge there has been a steady downward march of public expenditures. Es timated requirements in the va rious departments have been re vised and reduced by the budget bureau. Then Congress has still further cut requested appropria tions. This is the thing that has cut the federal tax burden of the American people $6,000,000 daily from what it was in 1921. s-s-s ALPINE. The Freshman elans of the Alpine high school held a bntinen meeting Monday. They elected the following officer: Cecil Gibson, president; William Miahey, T.-president; Mar garet Melville, secretary-treasurer. The class colors are green and white.
