The war department had 319,000 hor.sen and mules and purchased 2,105,000 eop por brandinir irons: sufficient brand ing irons with which to brand all the horses and mules in tho world. The war ended before tho wnr department cot around to ueltinir (he irons hot for brundinir, so purchased them from tho contractor at cost $1.72, and sold them back to tho contractor for .11 conts apieco. Is it nnv wonder that the war department blew lip, after performing two such brilliant deals? Kort Hull has kum out for ko. kom, His slogan will be: 'Tut u Kort IIf.ll in the Court House."

Tho switchmen hold that thov nre not striking, iust niiitting, which is thoir right, but they object most strenuously to tho railroad throat to keep them that way, as far as further labor in their yards is concerned. THE 4 PER CENT MEASURE WE ARE in receipt of a eommuiiication protesiing against the raising of the two per cent constitutional limitation to. four per cent, of 'which the following is an extract: , Where Is this tax Increase to stop? Wo have raised ton millions for good roads und now we uro aaked to raise more. When it comes to 111 creasing the state tax tor good roads 1 urn fom .Missouri. Taxes are high enough already. -v-. , This communication represents- ft general misconcep tion of ihc proposed elevation of the tax limitation from two to four per cent. The increase will not raise taxes for the simple reason that the revenue from the auto li cense fees and gas tax will he ample to care for both in terest and principal of all the bonds that will be issued under the proposed four per cent limitation. In other words, as the Oregon Voter has pointed but, the completion of the main highway within the next few years, lias already been financed by the taxes already im posed. The only object of tho increased limitation is. to legalize the work which has been or should be contracted. It is unfortunate so many money measures are to be voted on at the May election. It is doubtful if all the meas ures will be endorsed however worthy they may be.. Hut when tho increase of tho two per cent limitation is under stood, we believe the opposition to it will gradually decline. No direct property tax whatever is involved. The auto mobile owners arc paying for the present good road con struction and will pay for the construction planned. But without a change is the constitutional provision the con struction work already outlined and already financed can not be done. When our correspondent realizes that a vote for the four per cent limitation will not increase his taxes, nor will it increase the burdens of the automobile owners, but will merely allow the state to use tho money the law already provides, we believe he will be glad to move from the mud roads 01 Missquri to the permanent highways o! a progressive and entei'prising OrcgojiV " .

RipplingRhijmes 0 l Walt Mafan Ml Mf THE SPRING CHOR'E. SPRING is brightening the valleys, that were late ly brown and gray, and it's time to clean the alleys, carting all the trash away; all the cast-off shoes and. bonnets, and the eat that reached its .end, and tho punk rejected sonnets that the local poet penned. Spring is hinting now of roses, and we should to duty rise, for old trash offends our noses, and it's painful to the eyes. Spring is whispering of lilies, whispering in every breeze; and that town imparts the willies which no springtime clean-up sees. There is litter by your stable, there's a dead cow by your door toil as hard as you arc able' that they '.may be there no more. For such things insult our senses, and they aggravate and yex, and we ought to paint our fences, shave ourselves and wash our necks. All the world is bright and sunn', shining till it seenis like new, and I think it mighty fun ny if we arc not shining too. Bear away the long dead Tabby, a,ll the truck of yesteryear; clean up, for the town that's shabby is an eyesore to the ear. PHOEMX PARAGRAPHS The pupils of the Phoenix school never begun to practice the events for the track and field meet to be held at Talent, May 7, 1020.
