The Deadly Parallel IS THIS HONEST? IS IT TRUTHFUL? In this morning's issue of the Klamath News there is a front page article that says: "The heartfelt interest taken by the Bradbury board in the affairs of Charles Wood Eberlein " was yesterday given a new throb Shortly after the new board came in power records were chang ed in order that Eberlein's land might not be taxed by the district. J. K. Dixon (who classified the land and who was appointed by the local cooperative board) classified the holding of the Enterprise Land and Investment company and placed therri in the pro ducing, and paying class. He reported to the local class ification and placed the lands in sixth class . Acting on this protest, two government soil experts made an investigation and placed this land back in the paying classes, as originally reported by Dixon. It was after this re-classification that Bradbury, yielding to the importunities of Eberlein, "blocked foreclosure by the tax-collector, and signed the order of relinquishment. Thus an added load was idsced on the already heavy tax burden of the district." Now for the facts: Under the federal law. providing for the classification of land, a local cooperative board was appointed, con sisting of a representative of the district, a representa- Jiu-ob and Short statu! tor this will accept nothltiR le a than this: Paragraph ursoJ on ovorunuiit br prcscai district oftliinls: "The 1'nlU'd Stats wilt deliver the water supply (or the lauds NOW Oil HJfR,RAFTBR bo lie serv ed through the works tnr-u'd over at the hoadworks of the main can. ih and said water supply so deliv ered will there bo received by the district and distributed to the In dividual users aud others entitled thereto.

The above show the real issues of the campaign and the issues upon which the water users can base their live of the government and a third member selected by i choice of the candidates they will vote for.- Don't forget these two. That board consisted of H. D. Newell, pro-j that "We own the water; let's keep it," by voting for ject manager, J. L. Jacobs, district director and Burrell Jr.cob and Short. Short, selected by the first two. This .board appointed 1he classifiers. The "Bradbury Board," as the Jacob and if a man ijecj to vou .tjme anc again am he was prov Short opponents designate it, had nothing whatever to en to be a liar, would vou pay much attention to any ao wun it., uixon piacen tne EJiiujrpyise ium in cia&a five. That eliminated the land, so far as paying charges was concerned. The Newell-Jacob-Short board, and not the Bradbury board, or anyone else, placed this land in class six, the only difference being that in class six it was out permanently, while in class, five, it could be reinstated if later on water was delivered or the land could be made fit for agriculture. Is it honest, is it fair, is it playing the game on the square, to try and make the people believe that this classification and elimination was done by Bradbury or by the directors of the Klamath Irrigation district, when they had absolutely no control over the matter whatever? We know the farmers of the Klamath project well enough to let them supply the answer. Even the farm ers who are opposed to the present administration be lieve in fair play and a square deal, and when such a dishonest proposition is put before them and it is only a sample of what has been handed out before we know what their answer will be. THE REASON When the opponents of Jacob and Short were mapping out their 'plan of campaign, they decided to make it a "Bradbury-Eberlein" fight, for, as one of the leaders put, "there are more people 'sore at them than there are at the bord or anyone else. If we can make enough noise about Bradbury and Eberlein, the farmers may forget everything else." That is why you have heard so much Bradbury and so much Eberlein. That is why the Klamath News over shot the mark when it said Eberlein had money invest ed in the Evening Herald. Our offer of five thousand dollars which we will give to any charity in the county if the Klamath News can substantiate its charge, is still open. If the Klamath News was doing what it claims to be doing telling the truth and presenting only facts it would have jumped at our offer. But it is silent on this point, but still con tinues to talk about the "Eberlein paper." Yet it asks the people of Klamath county to believe it. If the Copco mountpiece is telling the truth, why doesn't it take us up on our $5000 offer? statement he would make? ' Well, that i3 the situation in this water user's fight. The opponents of Short and Jacob have repeatedly lied and misrepresented. They lied about the purchase of flowers; gasoline; about hiring taxis; about the ownership of the Herald; about the expenses of the district; about the charges on the Enterprise land; about the classification and elimination of the Enterprise land. When their statements were proven false, they repeated them again, showing their viciousness. Doubtless at the close of the campaign, when it will be too late to answer any charge that may be made, they will issue a last-minute broadside. If there is anything questionable, the time to put it before the people is long enough in advance to give the other side a chance to answer it. Don't be fooled by last minute stuff. If it is not true enough to issue early in the campaign, then it is not true enough to be believed at the end. ... jebdll Don't forget the Ankeny Canal steal! Don't forget the Keno Canal steal !
