C. V). Sperice, that remarkable
apostle of radicalism and xloom,
who as stale marKet agent bom
bards th country newspapers
with dismal bulletins, must in the
very nature of things smile oc
casionally probably when he
cashes his monthly salary check
and expense account. Condon
Globe Times.
This ollice has received several
commendable letters irom parties
living at Ileppner, praising us for
the stand we are taking against
the school unit plan as fathered
by our illustrious county superin
tendent, assisted in ttie propa
ganda work by the two Ileppner
papers. Thi se letters unmistak
ably show that even at Ileppner
there is strong opposition to the
unit plan. We need no new
schemes in school consolidation.
We need no more taxes, God
knows. There are dozens of far
mers in Morrow county today
who are merily holding onto their
property by their linger tips, so
to speak. You should crush this
school unit bugaboo Mr. Citizen
and Do It Now.
Will Oregon Allow Another Freak
Effort at freak legislation have
not reached a climax in Oregon -a
one house legislature based on
occupational representation is to
be submitted to voters. Tim law
making body under this system
would be composed not of repre
sentatives of counties ami dis
torts but of groups, such as skill
ed labor, common labor, woman
workers and various occupations
such as mining, lumbering, etc.,
apportioned in proportion to the
number in "iidi class. ,
Oregon's latest acquisitions in
freak legislation are the state in
come tax and the school law
abolishing all sectarion and pri
vate schools for pupils between
the ages of six and sij.teen.
Oregon has the mot highly de
veloper system of freak and po
litical legislaiion of any state in
the Union, ai d the number of
citizens participating in elections
is declining every year. Oregon
is week in industrial production.
