A report from Toledo, Ohio, says that a millionaire landlord cancelled an (1800 rent bill magnanimously and nobly, because "I figured out I couldn't get It anyway." la there anybody to deny that tAls la not deep and heavy winning? It la now (eared In some quarters that the repeal ol the 18th amend ment will bring back pictures of whiskered goats, the fro lunch, the bowl ol pretzels, and the auooulent dill picket and the saloon on the corner. The saloon was oaa snougn, but not as much aa painted by poli ticians In pursuit ol the dry vote Order was within the awluglng doors and when a tippling oltlzen got Ireah. felonious or murderous, ne was promptly subdued with a bungstarter in the hands ox a wmie-apronect oar tender, Boms of the rougher spots maintained a bouncer who waa known as the hlp-pooket and collar man. It was hie duty to cast the' obstrep erous one Into the street out on his ear, una he always did a good Job of It, . He was generally a retired pugilist from the underworld, and abie to take care of fclmsclt under the most trying combative circum stances. The bouncer has been elim inated and now the Intoxicated do aoout aa they please, as it Is not considered hospitable to knock down a victim of his own home brew or the current moonshine. The saloon kept bhem so busy buying another drink and singing "Sweet Adallne" the hooddlum did not have time to give vent to assault and battery In clination, and besides, the capable bouncer made Wis unprofitable. The llquor-lnsplred criminal capers of prohibition and out In the open, so to apeak, were much mora more fear some than those out up In the old tune saloon with Its lithographed whiskered gotta on the wall, the free lunch, the bowl of pretssels and the succulent dill pickles. "MADMAN RAIDS PUPIT" (Chlco enterprise). As this la not an elec tion year, It oouldn't have been a candidate for something. Thefkther of young Dub Watson lost bis auto Friday evening and, be ing lucky, recovered It Sunday none th worse and, certainly, none the better, for Its Illegal absence from the home garage tor two nights. The auto was stolen when the key was left in It, Mr. Watson thoughtlessly falling to leave Vie engine running for the benefit ot the thief or thlevea. During the period his vehicle waa AWOL be walked to and tro and back and forth from hla establish ment, and was highly disgusted at being a pedestrian. It waa the first time he ,had dons any extended walk ing exercise since he wsa In the 7th grade. The astray had four brand new tires on Ita wheels, which also remained Intact. Mr. Watson spoke very hlfhly of the purlolners, but will try and not leave his key In the car hereafter. He Is going to be smsrt and hide It under the floor mat, where th. thieves that coma In th. night will not be able to find It so quickly. . The ball team went down to de feat again Sunday. Several reasons are named as th. cause of this, but not the Inability to get the most runs. e "Ws don't need the radio here, as th. coyotes give us a concert every right. (Cottonwood CaU Jottings).

(From "Probation and Orlmlnala' The Sales Tax IN another column of this paper, a correspondent, opposed A to the sales tax, asks where the farmer will get off if the sales tax is passed. His answer is the farmer did before." Why! Because "with 81 percent of the former prpperty tax to pay and a new tax on all the food, clothing, lumber, farm implements and machinery, passed on to him by the retailer," his tax bill will be larger than Wc feel sure if the writer will of the sales tax, he will change "TTA-KE the case of a dairy farmer for example. He now pays A his property tax, or tries to. Let's assume that tax is $100 a year a very low estimate. He also pays his personal property tax, a tax on his cows, farm implements, his growing crops, etc., etc. Place that amount, for the sake of argument, at another $100. , If the sales tax passes, his nated entirely. According to real property tax will be reduced from 20 to 30 percent. Take the lower figure. He will then save $20, on his land tax, $100 on his personal tax, or s TOTAL saving of $120. 1VJOW to offset that saving he will have to pay his sales tax, that is 2 percent on his cash purchases, ASSUMING AS OUR CORRESPONDENT DOES THAT THIS ENTIRE 2 PERCENT will not be absorbed by the retailer, but passed on to the. consumer. Let's assume the farmer in $100 per month, on food, NEW clothing, NEW farm imple ments, etc., etc. under present conditions, when the farmer has little extra cash, a high figure. This would represent a total of $1200 a year. This farmer's sales tax would therefore be $24. The re duction in his land tax, and elimination of his personal property tax would be $120, or a net annual tax saving to him of $96. As S has been repeatedly stated in this column the sales tax is made for the farmer. Under its provisions he is bound to win he is in fact made a preferred creditor. In addition to the advantages noted above, all sales the far mer in question' might make, to a oreamery in milk, or to a wholesaler or retailer, in hay or farm produce, would be exempt from the sales tax. He wouldn't pay a nickel. We can understand why a retailer, large or small might op pose the sales tax. For he MUST pay the tax, and it may not appear as easy to him, as it does to Mr. Barton, to pass the tax entiroly on to the consumer. ' With competition what it is, and the profit margin as low as it is, he might fear, he would have to absorb the tax, himself. But how any farmer, understanding the sales tax, and what ft means to him can be opposed to it, is simply beyond our com prehension. ' ' ' , VITE are confident that those who DO understand if,, and have not been misled, by misinformation and prejudice, WILL vote for it. They are certainly hot alive to their OWN SELF INTER EST, if they DON'T I Wages First DAISE wages first, then prices I" This is what Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, the government's commander-in-chief for American industry, tells the captains, colonels and lieutenants as they throng to his office. It is the humane way, because wages have sunk, in the last fliree years, to depths not experienced in this country for de cades. Millions have beon trying lately to live on starvation wages. Industries have been nearly ruined by the out"throat competition of companies able to undersell honorable firms by producing goods out of the lifeblood of underpaid workers. There have been millions of men, women and children working for 10 to 20 cents an hour, or loss. THIS situation has not only tended to ruin industries them Rplvnu Vlllf frt ntnlnniT Bnrl dnmii tliA itanMHinn Tt la pleasant to buy goods dirt-cheap, when people have little money to buy with; but starvation pay cuts down buying power, and the evil, if tolerated makes things worse for everybody. From it flow not only crushed industries but deteriorated goods, lower living standards, pauperism and disease that society has to pay for with reduced resources. Put people back to work and pay them all you can this is Johnson's method. He admits that the thing has never been tried before in just this way, but he believes it is going to work. Ho thinks, though he doesn't promise, that "We'll have several million more men back at work this summer." Well, why not t But the banks, as well as the government, must help. Communications When They Wake l'p To th. editors I notice you ssy politics make strange bedfellows th. Oregon Re tail Merchant association, Joining the farmers In fighting the asles tax. This la true, I saw a nolle, from the retsllera astoclstlon, telling everybody to vote th. tax down. If th. ssles tax Is to help the big re tailer then why Is th. association against Itf . But I know a funnier on.. The organised labor boys in this stste reslty got the Orange leadera who want votes to fight this sales tax. The Grangers fell for It, hook, line and sinker. And now the lsbor boys are out to alnk th. oleo tax which would really help th. farmer, and watch them do HI Th. farmers who vote this sales tax down will certainly kick them selves when they wak. up and find how they were "gyped." They are otrtalnly easy mark when It comes to politics. I am a firmer. I ought to know. HARRY THOMAS. Ashland, July 10. Rays Farmer Mill Pay More. To th.

So you are nerv ous, are -you? Well, what are you afraid of? It la a com mon expression to say that a person has Just been working on his nerve, or keeping up on bis nerve and consequently his col lapse or complete breakdown la nat ural. - But that doesn't mean e thing actually. A person can no more work on his nerve or keep upon his nerve than he can do so on his bone or his muscle or bis lung. If he happens to attempt any feat of endurance his nerve la subjected to no more strain than la his heart or his liver. He is no more to be admired or ex cused for working on hla nerve than he la for working on his muscle. Remember, pleaae, that I am speak ing In scientific terms and not In street parlance. Recently a prominent banker un der Indictment fled from ft hospital or sanitarium where he was con fined, and attempted suicide. Ac cording to a newspaper report, one of the physicians who had attended the man announced that the patient had been seriously ill for several years with a kidney lesion and dis ease of the blood vessels. The blood vessel disease had Involved the brain structure and brought about Impair ment of memory, judgment and abil ity to transact business. The ar teriosclerosis later developed a severe ooronary thrombosis these medical terms need not detain us everybody knowa arteriosclerosis means harden ing of the arteries, and a few of the older boys know that coronary throm bosis means dotting of blood In one of the main arteries that carry blood to the heart muscle Itself which had culminated In an attack' of an gina pectorlea a few months before the banker's Indictment. T All that is straight and above board. But the doctor who Issued the statement to the press managed to inject a bit of characteristic ho kum Into It, for what purpose wei may conjecture. Where he explained ! that the arteriosclerosis had Involved the brain structure and brought about impairment of memory and Judgment, the doctor Interjected his trick phase, to wit, "coupled with his great business anxiety." He might as well have said, "O, Jury, please let us down eaey.'" store were to pay ft 3 per cent tax on gross sales out of Its present net earnings, where would It come out? Most of them would be forced out of business. They will simply add 3 per cent or more to the irotali price of the goods. I Now, with this passed on to him. the farmer will not be able to pur chase the quantity of goods which he has purchased before. He must do without! Here we have a reduction In the taxea of income -producing property and an Increase to the cost of all commodities necessary to the liveli hood of the people. You compared the word "tax" to the prejudice against the "dentist." Such a comparison is unreasonable. The article stated that we never failed to benefit by the visit to the dentist and inferred that a tax would be the same. Is It? What about the prop erty tax which has caused so much hardship? If the sales tax were based upon ability to pay by means of exempt ing purchases of each Individual up tn fivi or l hundred dollars ner year1 It would come nearer to betrfg a fair tax. .

From this view point It seems that the humorous phrases injected by the doctor ta an effort to gain the sympathy of the neurotic world. It is quite characteristic of general arteriosclerosis that, as the patient's memory and Judgment become im paired, his obstinacy and his refusal to defer to the better Judgment or advice of physician or other person. Unfortunately there i no test which will determine definitely when these brain functions are sufficiently im paired to make the man Incompetent to handle hla own or another's busi ness or estate. The law prefers to wait until .he has committed some serious breach.
