The Governor Visits.
GOVERNOR PIERCE'S visit to
Heppner did not cause such
a furore as might be expected on
such an unusual occurrence for
these parts. Seldom in the past
has a governor of the slate had
occasion to visit our little city, and
in such event it was looked upon
as a momentous honor. Perhaps
it is because Mr. Pierce is just one
of the common people, having a
long time acquaintanceship with
our citizenry, that they did not
take his visit as extraordinary.
Anyway, the Elks hall, not unus
ually large even for average Hepp
ner crowds, was only two-thirds
filled.
True, Mr. Pierce's audience was
agreeably receptive, and listened
attentively to his somewhat errat
ic discourse on taxation. He had
much to say on the subject, though
lamentably, he left a great deal
unsaid. As usual he was riding
his income tax hobby horse, which,
though badly abused and crippled,
seems to be carrying him gallantly
still. As we gathered from his
harrangue, practically everybody
else in Oregon but the governor
are a bunch of "dubs" or if not
"dubs" they are crooks but still,
if given half a chance he is going
to have them all astride his pet
pony yet.
Mr. Pierce came well loaded
with ammunition to force his is
sue. He handed out printed sheets
of statistics that showed Oregon
to be "the biggest boob state in
the whole union, with the excep
tion of Nevada," by having the
largest per capita state tax with
the one, exception. Then he point
ed out that property in Oregon
bore a greater burden of taxation
than it did in any other state, bar
none. Proceeding to make com
parisons between Oregon and oth
er states, he brought out that Cal
ifornia and Pennsylvania had no
state tax on property whatsoever,
and many other states had less
than half the tax on property for
state purposes than had Oregon.
Of course he didn't say these
states have state taxes on income
such as he proposes for Oregon,
but their state revenue is derived
through indirect taxing procedure,
part of the practice of which he is
now advocating, but not at all in
line with his income tax hobby.
Next he pointed out how Mor
row county paid $1 17,000 into the
state treasury the year he went in
to office and now this was reduced
to $72,000 the one year the state
income tax was in effect; leaving
for his audience to deduce that it
was all due to the state income
tax. However, he neglected to
point out that assessed valuations
of property in the county in the
meantime had dropped nearly
enough to account for the differ
ence; also, that Oregon kept out
enough productive industry in the
one year through the income tax
bill to make up for the whole
amount collected through it, in
spite of the governor s declaration
that the income tax was not a tax
on capital but merely a tax on the
revenue derived through the em
ployment of capital which, in ef
fect, is the same thing.
Again, he showed how one great
manufacturing concern with an in
vestment of more than $2,000,000
paid taxes only on a wee little bit
of property, entirely out of pro
portion with their enormous earn
ings, while the farmers were be
ing forced into bankruptcy. An
other half truth. Though this con
cern may not be paying its just
share of taxes directly, it is not to
be denied that it is furnishing lu
crative employment for hundreds
of people who have their homes in
the state and who probably
would not be in the state if it were
not for this employment and who
pay taxes to the state on their
property. Brains of a nature to
conduct such concerns are at
premium in Oregon and we should
not ask them to leave through any
more fool income tax bills.
It isn t that we re against in
come tax that we say unkind words
about our esteemed governor. We
would be trying to refute the de
cisions of highest authority in the
field of economics if we decried
the priciple of such a sjstem of
taxation. In theory it is the most
just and equitable form of taxa
tion ever conceived. In practice,
it is not feasible for us to adopt
it so long as our neighboring states
do not do likewise reasons for
which have been too forcibly
brought to our attention to need
citing here and so long as the
Golden Rule does not govern the
conduct of our population. We
believe that there could and
should be a shifting of the tax bur
den to relieve property from its
unjust share. To this end we fa
vor indirect taxation measures as
the most painless means of ex
tracting the money. But so long
as we have our debts to pay there
can be no reduction in taxes on
this score, and so long as they
must be paid the producers must
foot the bill, as he does in the end,
no matter what form the means
of taxation may take.
Governor Pierce has done a lot
of good during his term as govern
or of Oregon if for no other rea
son than that he has stirred its
people to thinking on matters per
taining to state government as
probably they might not have
thought had a less dynamic fel
low been in his stead, but we be
lieve Oregon is now ready for a
steadier hand to take hold of the
reins of government.
Building Boom Ahead.
THE Department of Commerce
has estimated that over eight
billion dollars will be spent in
1926 in building operations. An
interesting feature of this estimate
is the number of rural buildings
which are planned for erection
While it is true that the total of
expenditures for these buildings
is quite modest in comparison with
expenditures for industrial plants
and buildings in the large cities
it is a matter of satisfaction that
the expenditures planned for rural
structures and homes surpasses all
records in the past
Out of this total expenditure of
eight billion, over three billion dol
lars will be paid directly as wages
to the workmen employed on the
same. In addition, we might count
in, although no estimate has been
made, the workmen in the build
ing-supplies and other lines who
also will undoubtedly receive at
least another two billions of wages
out of the five billion paid for ma
terial. With figures like this at
hand, the plain, common, garden
variety of citizen can continue to
plan on sending his boys and girls
to college, and ignore the fictitious
slump of values on Wall Street in
New York.
TWO young Englishmen have
been making a study of Amer
ican prosperity, and have evolved
nine reasons in explanation:
One Promotion in America is
by merit.
Two America sticks to small
profits and quick returns, on im
mense and rapid turnover.
Three Rapid turnover is se
cured by simplification and cheap
ening of processes which neces
sitates less capital.
. Four America shows endless
keenness in devising time-saving
and trouble-saving appliances.
Five The American employer
is not hostile to high wages.
Six American manufacturers
cooperate by exchanging ideas.
Seven Americans are vigilant
and acute in eliminating waste.
Eight American welfare meth
ods double high wages by sur
rounding the workers with clean
liness and light.
Nine Americans encourage re
search. LEGAL NOTICES
