NO'ONE will consciously vote against Lis Hdlf-intcrcst.
But the danger in tire coming primary is that souk;
people will do so without knowing it.
Take this college niillage tatfj'or example. Superfic
ially a citizen might figure Umt ,y voting against the
measure lie -would save the state $800,000 in taxes and
thereby decrease his own. Hut will liclx .
Obviously the 1.120 mill tax would be saved. This would
save the average tax payer about enough to -buy a few good
cigars. Hut let us examine the loss that would be. involved.
The critical financial situation of the three educational
institutions m this state, is not bunk. It is as if a familv of
four in 19i:$, with an income of .fUOOO, had been iiiereas-'d
to a iaiiuly ol ten in 1920, with an income of !)()). That
what the increased attendance and reduced value of the
dollar has done. .Figure it out to vourself what that means.
Jf the millage tax fails, the educational institutions will
probably not close their doors, but it is an undeniable fact
that a majority of the best professors and instructors will
leave, it is also an undeniable fact, that at least one third
of the students who now attend these institutions will have
to go outside of the state for their education.
What would this mean? The Oregon Voted lias givei'
the answer:
the state would

creative power of this number of ati dents would he diminished for the
state for their lifetime. Neither is this a small item.

dous obstacles, inaintained a standard, excelled bv few
state universities in the country. The question is whether
these institutions are to be maintained, and their useful
ness sustained, or whether they are to be allowed to go ro
.seed.
We believe noVoter can investigate Ibis situation thor
oughly and impartially and not conclude that regarding
the question merely in the light of dollars and cents, iii the
light both of public and self-interest, he can not afford to
vote against this measure. .

IN THE OLD TIME.
Xf IIION .1 wan young a shilling was pretty hard to
get ; for hours a-man went drilling, in pools of
honest sweat, before he'd fairly earned it, and when he
drew his tin; 'twas seldom that he burned it, or idly
blew it in. At. Christinas time he'd holler and make
some kopecks fly; and he would spend a dollar the
Fourth day of July. And when the three-ring circus
came lumbering to towii with grafts and fakes to work
us, he'd haply blow a crown. Then, having had his riot,
he to his work returned, and, slrickfly on the quiet, he
pickled all he earned. And. when life's winter found
him, it didn't find him broke'; he'd comforts all around
him, and greenbacks in his poke. Hut now such sane
enoeavor such sense we vainly seek; the Fourth is with
us ever, and Christmas once.a week. The money's coin
ing easy, with equal ease it goes; the toiler, flip ami
breezy, just blows, and blows, ami blows. With till wise'
rules disgusted, he bit ws his wad today; cheer up! we'll
