I WILL vote t every public elec
tion, trying first to inform my
self on the candidates and the
questions to be voted upon.
I m ill try to buy stock in some
local industry or utility- serving
my on locality, and help it to
build up payrolls and values and
sobriety in my home town.
I will obey the laws as they are
written; it may be as offensive to
my neighbor for me to dodge
taxes or make booze or exceed the
speed laws, as it is to me for him
to rob or burn or violate my home.
I will uork at my job as though
I believed in it.
I will try to make my street the
best street in town.
I will practice the belief that
prosperity and good government
and neighborly kive is here now,
and to stay, if 1 will but accept and
live it.

New State Income Tax.
NOT heedful of the substantial
majority by which the peo
ple voted down the state income
tax, a new bill is to be presented
to the incoming legislature.
Senator Tooze of Clackamas
county is to offer a bill to raise
taxes by a levy on incomes in ad
dition to the other taxes and fed
eral income tax system.
The bill is made up of the ruins
of the one that was vetoed by the
popular vote on a referendum, and
looks like trying to reverse the
popular vote.
The rate of taxation under the
proposed measure would be 10
per cent of each $1000 of taxable
income for the Erst S5000, 15 per
cent on each $1000 of taxable in
come on the second $5000 ; 20 per
cent on each $1000 of taxable in
come for the third $5000 ; 25 per
cent on each $1000 of taxable in
come on the fourth $5000, 30 per
cent on each $1000 of taxable in
come over $20,000.
Exemptions would be $750 for
a single person and $1500 for a
married person or head of a fam
ily, with an additional allowance
of $200 for each dependent.

Loose Talk About Oil.
THERE has been much loose
talk regarding the vital prob
lems affecting the petroleum in
dustry of the country, especially
in regard to current conditions
which have resulted from a long
period of over-production, the gov
ernment's patent suit, the ques
tion of taxes, nationalization and
governmental regulation of the
industry and the fluctuations in
crude oil prices, according to
Judge Amos L. Beatty, president
of the Texas Company.
"Politicians," said Judge Beatty,
"have howled to the tune of gaso
line trust. All that is pure bunk
and it will be known as such in
the course of time."
In regard to the numerous pro
posals which have been made from
time to time as to government

omncrship or government control
of the petroleum industry, Judge
Beatty said:
"I believe the fact that individ
ual ownership, the fact that the
proprietor of each tract of land
is the owner of anv petroleum un
derneath the surface, with free
dom to lease or develop it at his
ill, has been the chief contribut
ing factor in building up this great
industry of ours. It is truly an
American industrv. for no matter
where on the glebe oil is pro
duced, Americans are there. Our
kadrship is recognized and our
practices are followed. My con
viction is that if our government
had owned the oil, the restrictions
upon development and the lack
of incentive would have been such
that we would not know today the
value or uses of petroleum or how
or where to find it.
"We usually think of petroleum
production as something which
fluctuates most violently, but the
fact is. as compared with con
sumption, it fluctuates no more
than do many other staple prod
ucts. A table of the world's con
sumption and production from
1S59 to the present would show
that at no period has production
been out of line with consump
tion in any extraordinary percent
age. Compare petroleum with
cotton which depends not at all
upon new discovery zones. With
in the last five years we have seen
a difference of more than 25 per
cent between world's production
and consumption in a single year.
Similar illustrations could be
made of corn, sugar and other
products which depend upon cul
tivation of the soil, rain and sun
shine." S-S-S
Walking Into the Same
Old Trap.
Dearborn Independent.
THE bootleg game is repeating
in detail the abuses which
called down the public wrath up
on the saloon, and this may prove
the deciding factor in prohibition
enforcement. The abuse which
did more than any one thing to
set the public upon the saloon
was its greed for the trade of chil
dren. It is part of the liquor his
tory of this country (and within
recent months in England) that
the liquor interest fought with
every conceivable weapon the pro
posal to keep children out of sa
loons. It was in meeting the sa
loon resistance to this proposal
of plain decency that the public
got in training for the bigger fight.
The bootleg business is repeat
ing the game of annexing youth
as a customer. The vicinity of
high schools everywherte is in,
fested with gentlemen who ped
dle the illicit stuff. Mere kids,
with too much money for their
own good, know in increasing
numbers where to get the booze.
In a number of cities special in
vestigations have been made along
these lines with appalling disclo
sures. Now, what will occur sooner or
later is this: parents who com
placently read in the papers that
the bootleggers are busy, and who
naturally assume that it only
means that the old-time boozers
are getting their liquor (as a mat
ter of fact, few people strenuous
ly object to that) are going to cat
apult out of their easy chairs and
explode a yell of wrath that will
shake Washington when they
learn that it is not the old-time
boozers, but their young sons and
daughters that are getting the
liquor. And when that starts, the
bootleggers can kiss their graft
goodby. It will all be over.
The complacence of America
means that it has not yet caught
on to this ancient indecency of the
liquor business the corruption of
youth. When the American peo
ple learn what is going on, prohi
bit lonwillbenolongerajoke
and prohibtion enforcement will
become a cruel steel trap.

Remember the Birds.
R
EME.WBER the birds! Also
remember that the same
howling winds that cause you to
turn up your coat collar makes it
practically impossible at this time
of the year for these feathered
friends to obtain much food.
Ground that is frozen and barren,
shrubbery- that is bare of berries,
and bird baths and pools that are
now firm ice oPTer little in the way
of food and drink for these asso
cites who help save our crops and
our grain and spread their song
so cheerfully. Why not scatter a
tew oreaa crumbs in some shel
tered spot in the vard? Whv not
set out a pan of water now and
then ? An apple or a piece of suet
tid to a shrub would be welcome.
You will feel amply repaid when
you see the little fellows feast on
your refreshments. Remember
the birds.

"The teacher's ereatest field of
usefulness is in making children
think. Make them think rather
than make them eood. Once thev
learn to think they are naturally
good. Children must be taught
to do right because they want to,
not because they have to. The
second greatest mistake parents
and teachers make is preparing
the path of life for the child, in
stead of preparnig the child for
tne patn ot lite. Judge Ben
