Tho 1909 aosslon of tho Oregon
legislature enacted a law providing
that when petitioned by 10 por cent
or moro of tho legal ichool voters of
nny county tho county court shall
submit to tho legal voters of tho
county nt tho next general election
tho question of creating a county
high school fund. If tho mcasuro
carries, tho county court shall pro
ceed to mako estimates and lovy n
tax upon all tho assessable property
of tho county sufficient to meet tho
requirements. Tho fund thus creat
ed Is apportioned 0 all school dis
tricts In tho county that shall main
tain high schools up to the standard
fixed by tho stato board of educa
tion, on tho basis of the average dally
attendance In tho high school. Forty
dollars per pupil Is apportioned for
tho first 20 pupils average dally at
tendance; $30 per pupil for tho sec
ond 20, and $12.50 per pupil for tho
remaining nurnbor.
For Jackson County.
In nccordanco with a resolution
passed by tho school board conven
tion of Jackson county, held at Cen
tral Point last November, tho fol
lowing committee has been appoint
ed to devise ways and means of sub
mitting this question to tho voters
of Jackson county at tho November,
1910, electien: Dr. R C. Kclsey,
Gold Hill, chairman; C. P. Briggs,
Butte Falls; Welborn Beoson, Talent;
B. F. Mulkoy, Jacksonville; F. A.
Hawk, Central Point; J. H. Cochran,
Medford, and G. G. Eubanks, Ash
land. This cotmnlttco mot at tho
call of the chairman In Medford July
20 and decided to namo a sub-com-tnittco
in each scshool district in tho
county, to whom blank petitions
should bo sent with tho request that
thoy bo circulated for signatures of
legal school voters, and returned to
Dr. Kclsey at Gold Hill, About COO
signatures nro required, but consider
able moro than that number should
bo sccurod.
Arguments In l"nor.
Every school district which nt pres
ent maintains a high school will bo
benefited, because it places behind
every high school In tho county all
tho vast undeveloped resources of tho
county, and rellovcs tho heavy bur
den of special district tax, under
which they arc at present maintain
ed.
Every small town which Is main
taining grades above tho eighth or
struggling to establish a high school
will bo benefited. An averago,dally
attendnnco of ten pupils lu tho high
school means $400 por year for the
school. A high school of 20 pupils
end ono teacher Is self-uupportlng.
Any number of districts in thickly
settled rural sections may unite for
high school purposes and'draw upon
this fund.
Every high school In the county
will bo free to every pupil In tho
county who holds an eighth grade
diploma. , -
Incentive for High Schools.
Tho law will be a great incentive
for tho establishment of high schools
in our small towns and rural sections
and a genet al urllft to the educa
tional system of the county.
Tho standard fixed by tho state
board of education Minbles thJ ama'l
school of two or three rooms to meet
the requirements
nil plan has l.een tried in Lane
and Linn counties and has proven
vd-y satisfactory.
Tho following table will illustrate
how tho law providing for a county
high school fund would havo operat
ed in Jackson county, had it been In
Torco during the school year of
1909-10:

The assessed valuation of Jackson
county for tho year 1909 wns approx
imately $26,000,000.00." On this
valuation n tax of four tenths of a
mill on the dollar s produce $10,
400, or $1562 more than tho requir
ed nmount. In other words, a por
son who pays taxes on $1000 worth
of property would hnvo been requir
ed to contribute 40 cents to this
fund had tho law been In operation
during tho last school year. Under
this law tho attendance In the high
