PIERCE COULD NOT
REDUCE OREGON TAX
Walter I'ierre. democratic candidate
for governor, has sccceeded in creating
the impression that if elected governor
he can cut taxes in two. The claim
that he can leduc.e taxes 50 per cent is
simply a vote-catching extravagance
upon which to ride into office. Let us
see how much a governor has to do
with Hood Uiver county taxes.
The total amount levied on JJnod
River county property this year is
$526,344. Of this 82 per cent was lev
ied by county and local authoiities for
schools, roads, city and town purposes,
including the irrigation district tax of
$62,803. How could any governor cut
this local part of the tax bill in two?
Reduction or these local taxes is up io
the voter in the local districts.
When cornered, Mr. Pierce admits
his 50 per cent tax cut promise is in
tended to apply to state taxes oniy.
Let us see how this works out on Hood
River countv.
Only 18 per cent of all Hood River
county's taxes this year were state
taxesfor soldiers' bonus, 2 per cent;
for market roads, 2 per cent: lor state
aid to elementary schools, 4 per cent,
and for state hieher educational pur
poses, 5J per cent, the latter including
the educational aid to the soldiers and
railors, as well as all the millage bills
and appropriations for Oregon Agricul
tural College and University of Ore
con.
Senator Pierce introduced several of
these tax measures and supported all
of them. Which ones will he cut out?
The balance of the state tax, 42 per
cent of the total Hood River tax bill,
goes mainly to support institutions
caring for the insane and other af
flicted, besides paving expenses oi
state government. Even if Mr. Pierce
cuts this amount in two he would re
duce Hood River county's tax bills less
thBn 2J per cent; yet even this amount
could not be cut in two without turn
ing insane, feeble minded, orphans and
other dependents out upon the public
for charity.
; The claim that taxes can be reduced
50 per cent or any other substantial
amount, by a governor or through his
influence, is so preposterous that it is
obviously intended only for campaign
purposes.
The problem or tax reduction is
mainly a local one, up to the people of
the various taxing districts.
Of the total tax bill of Oregon this
year. $10,473,906, only 23 per cent or
$0,373,376, was levied as state taxes.
This amount ir.cluded soldiers' bonus
millHire necessary for soldiers loan
bond redemption, market road millage,
millage for state aid to elementary
schools and all the millage and appro
priations for state educational institu
tions, including the soldiers' educa
tional aid. '
Only $2,514,080, or 6 per cent of all
taxes paid in Oregon this year, were
for general s tate purposes outside of
roads and education, while 94 per cent
were taxes voted by the people of the
state or of local taxing districts, or
for purely local expenses under control
of the people of each county and locality.
As state senator, Mr. 1'ierce intro
duced more bills than any other mem
ber of the kind that increase taxes.
He voted for practically every appro
priation and millage bill that came up
and has caused high taxes by his bills
and vctes more than any other member
of the legislature in the state of Ore
gon in 20 years. b. J. Moore.
OREGON CROP CON
DITIONS ARE BETTER
(By F. L. Kent, of Portland. U. S,
cron statistician)
Oregon's growing crops improved
somewhat during the month of bep
tember, while the condition of crops
over the country as a whole declined to
som extent, is the substance of the re
ports reachinar the office of V. L. Kent,
agricultural statistician, Department
of Agriculture.
The early September rains, followed
by tine growing weather, were very
helpful to late potatoes, corn, pastures.
cabbage, tomatoes, etc. No killing
frost to date, except in Borne of the
higher altitudes, has further contrio
uted to the fine fall weather conditions
in the western part of the state. The
eastern part of the state has not fared
quite so well, however, since the early
September rains were lacking and
there has been somwhat more frost.
liamace. although not general.
The late September and early Octo
ber rains appear to have been quite
general over the state, but too light to
have been greatly ber.eticial in the
eastern portion of the state. Eastern
Oregon wheat farmers have been ready
to feed their summer fallow for a
month or more, but have waited on
account of lack of soil moisture. While
the recent rains have not really put
the soil in first class condition for
planting, the seeding of winter wheat
on summer IhIIow will be in lull swing
by October 15, since it is not considered
advisable to defer fall seeding much
later than that date.
In the western part of the state the
recent rains have put the soil in excel
lent condition for potato digging, and
the early and mid-season plantings are
now being dug. Fall plowing and silo
filling: ate major farm operations in
the western district at this time.
Winter apples are being picked in
New York. The crop is large but qual
ity low outside of the commercial or
chards. Virginia apples are going into
storage in good condition. Yields are
reported to be above expectations in
West Virginia. In the middle west
states the apple crop is generally large
but under-sued and much damage by
scab is reported. Insufficient trans
portation facilities are reported from
several districts."

BIG PARTY GOES
ON FIRE MISSION
In celebration of national fire pre
vention week, a party of citizens
Thursday made a motor tour of the
valley, stopping at the rine urove,
Odell. Iiairett and Oak Grove schools.
where fire drills were held. Addresses
on fire prevention were made at each
scnooi. Lepuiy oiaie i n lumnim
Geo. W. Stokes accompanied the party.
The junketers visited the Park Street
school and high school in the city.
Members of the party, the activities of
which were initiated by U)unty Judge
Hasbrouck, were Judge Hasbrouck,
E. O. Blanchar. C. H. Vaughan. C. A
Bell, City Fire Chief Volstorff, City
Fire Marshal Morgan, Fred H. Bell, of
the city fire department; City School
Superintendent Cannon, County Super
intendent Gibson. Mr. ana Mrs. ueo,
W. Thomson, Mrs. Edgar Franz, R. B,
Perigo and W. J. Baker.
The 1.500 students of the various
schools in the fire drills averaged 35
seconds in clearing their buildings. At
Oak Grove the party found that teach
ers had instructed four boys to rush,
at an alarm of fire, for hand extin
guishers. The boys are trained to get
their apparatus before the column of
children begin their march from the
building and to follow a teacher to the
point where a fire should start.
Health Exposition Approaching
For the first time in history Oregon
is to have a health exposition, similar
to those which have been held in the
middle west during the last few
months. The Oregon health exposi
tion, staged under the auspices of the
Oregon State Board of Health, will be
held in the Public Auditorium in Port
land, October 26 to November 4.
The show will be a panorama of ar
tistic beauty enhanced by the products
of industry and supplemented by a vis
ualization of the triumphs of science.
The large auditoruim will be beauti
fully decorated and will contain a
shilting program of entertainment dur
ing the entire period of the show.
The exposition will present a liberal
education to all who attend and give
several hour's inspection to the dis
plays that will be on hand. The ex
position will have an interest for every
man, woman and child and the attend
ance is certain to be large.
By Products Plants Operating
The Libby, McNeil & Libbv, can
nery, of The Dalles, and the plant of
The Dalles King Food Products Co. are
well started on their season, utilizing
apples of various Northwestern dis
tricts. An average of 100 tons of culls
per day is being used at the two
plants.
The dehydrating plant has just fin
ished processing 800 tons of prunes.
The finished product is being shipped
to fauiem, where it will be graded and
put in packages for distribution to the
trade. The concern expects to process
between 200 and 500 carloads of apples
this season.
Apple Packers Scarce
While the supply of pickers here this
season is plentiful, many growers are
finding it difficult to secure sufficient
packers. Because of the scarcity and
keen demand for packers, many of this
class of harvest help has become tem
peramental and hard to please. The
condition will become less acute as tho
peak of the harvest passes and many
small growers will be able to release
their packers.
Hepner Seeks Assessorship,
But a single contest will mark the
county election here. S. W. Hepner,
who in former years has sought the
orhce of county assesssor on the Demo
cratic ticket, is now running as an in
dependent against Jasper Wickham,
Republican incumbent.
How Better Than Pills!
The Question has been asked. "In
what way are Chamberlain's Tablets
FUperior to the ordinary cathartic and
liver pills; Our answer is, they are
easier and more pleasant to take and
their effect is so gentle that one hardly
realizes that it is produced hy a med
cine. Then, they not only move the
bowels but improve the appetite and
strengthen the digestion.
