INCREASIN THE city council has increased the city levy for the. coming year 2.1 mills. The assessed valuation has been slightlj reduced, but not largo enough to justify the increased taxation. The comparitive levies for the two years are: 1912 131 .1 Amount Sower l.R t.r. JS2!i:i.7S 1 IPO ltlaMtlllMltMlMttttMMIMMHttttlttlMttltttlt 1 M It I I I V O .

The same scale of expenditures gov-i erns as when the city was spending hundreds ot thou sands of dollars a year in improvements and f he city filled with floating workmen from railroad, irrigation, power plants and other developments. The council could set a good example in economy by eat ing off their own salaries of $23 a month apiece as a starter. hen the big improvements were started and under way, neither council nor inavor drew salarv. The result was disinterested publie service from public-spirited citizens, instead of by those whoso only interest is the $25 a month. Neither Grants Pass nor Ashland pay salaries it is absurd for A fed ford. There is no necessity for city engineer, employed by the month, nor for a plumbing inspector, wire inspector, etc., when only a few days' work offers. A per diem rate of compensation for actual work is sufficient. Nor is there need of anaintaing the police force at the scale there was with hundreds of floaters here. Nor is there necessity for maiiitaing the street repair crew on the same scale. The less new work there is to do, the bigger the office expense has become. There was no necessity of buying the 1 jit tie Butte ranch "to protect the water supply." Before the .proppsal to increase the water rates is acted upon, it would be well to publish a statement re garding the receipts and disbursements of the water worksand whether or not the sinking fund called for is being provided out of the excess revenues. Jf not, what becomes of it? Let the council get down to business on a business basis and practice economy. EUGENE AND THE UNIVERSITY TILE Mail Tribune is in receipt of several letters of appreciation from residents of Eugene, as well as from the Commercial club, for the stand the paper took in behalf of the university appropriation. Other papers are in receipt of similar communications. Somejrf the letters speak of "the splendid results of our jjampaign, as shown by the votes," and some promise support lor tne Ashland Normal school bill "in return for the splendid support given the university." The intent of these letters may be all right, but the less the people of Eugene mix up in university affairs the better for the university. In fact, all the set-backs administered the university have been because of Eugene rather than because of any enmity engendered by the institution itself. The university belongs entirely to the state and not in any sense to Eugene, where it happens to be located, Mid which has for years assumed a sense of proprietor ship. The log-rolling in its behalf by Eugene has gone far to undo the meritorious work of the institution. Par kinson's referendums were admittedly aimed against the university merely to strike at Eugene. The press of the state supported the university be cause its cause was a .just one and because the average newspaper is progressive in policy and an advocate of education not because of any work done or aid re quested by Eugene rather, in spite of it. The Mail Tribune having always, in season and out, advocated liberal support for the university, feels that it speaks freely in this matter. It supported the univer sity bills in the referendum elections of 1908, 1912 and lUi.j, and clianipioned the mileage bill. Jackson county barring only Multnomah and Lane, has regularly returnee the largest majorities, not only for the university, bu for other educational institutions-like the normals, whicl lUi.j, and clianipioned the mileage bill. Jackson countv, ollmtin ilti,v j-ii-1.!... 1 f nuuvtn iiiuu- jft jiuuuiig Hcciionai aooui (jucKson county s educational program us there has been about other coun ties winch voted strongly for their own institutions and against all others. Tho referendum election again showed where the line lies between, the progressive counties and the mo.ssback counties of Oregon. Those "Willamette valley counties between Multnomah and Lane have always been the heart of mossbackism and again voted against higher educa tion. They vote just as strongly against good roads and oppose progress generally. As regards the Ashland normal if it is shown to be a meritorious measure, as we believe it to be, progressive people will generally vote for it. The vote of Jackson county on the university has nothing to do with the prop osition. If it does we aro back to the old log-rolling days, the "scratch my back and I'll scratch yours" days we hoped had gone.forever. ENCOURAGE THE nplIE annual shoot of the A Avill bo held Tuesday, irom aJl over southern Oregon as well as professionals will be hero to participate. These annual shoots should bo encouraged by the com munity. Thoy bring a class of desirable men to tho val ioy there aro no better fellows tlrtm lovers of the rod and gun.

Marksmen and superior attractions of hunting and angling make tho Uoguo Kivor valley pecu liarly attractive to 'the sportsman. It is Mod ford's, prov ince to bring this section to tho notice of all sportsmen, and there is no better way than by encouraging annual t vents, which should bo timed so as to attract as many as possible. Trap-shooting is a healthful and beneficial recreation and should bo more largely indulged in. NEWS Of THE ORCHARBl I m $12,607 NEI FOR Y( Is there money In 1'oruo river pears?
