KLAMATH FALU, SATURDAY. SFPTrTA B m . AN INDEPENDENT REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPER THE KLAMATH DAILY NEWS .10' "Let ui hive faith that right make might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty at we understand it." Abraham Lincoln. The Eighth Wonder of the World No Man's Councilman Like Andy Gump-He Wears No Collar "Doc" Powell, The News is forced to concede, after reading his statement of candidacy as alderman of the second ward, is a man of great foresight . In Mr. Powell's formal announcement, which we " noted with no little interest, he was quoted as saying, in part: "He (referring to Mayor Goddard) is no man's mayor, and I don't propose to be any man's councilman." Fine. It's so lucid. And, in memory, we could al most see the politician's red neckties,, and the flare of the red lights in the old-time street parades. But to return to Mr. Powell's concise statement. The News ventures to wonder if Mr. Powell has stopped to consider that, possibly, a number of voters in u.& sec ond ward agree with him perfectly when iie said : "I don't propose to be any man's councilman." Interesting As Sewing Bee Senator Oldfleld Has Same Old Line We are indebted to Congressman Oldfield, of Ar kansas, authorized spokesman for the democratic party, for the information, given out in his speech at Portland this week, that the presidential campaign in 1928 will be fought on the tariff issue. He also tells us that our rev ered land of liberty is really governed by a group of ultra rich men, three of whom are members of Mr. Coolidge's cabinet. In his speech as a whole, Mr- Oldfield would have us believe that conditions of the country are ap proaching those which in 1912 split the republican party into the factions led by Taft and Roosevelt, respectively, and permitted the election of Wilson. Mr. Oldfield may be correct in his diagnosis of present-day conditions po litically anrj otherwise but to the average, c,jtize.n, free of political bias,the "affairs of line country seem" td be'' running, along satisfactorily and business conditions war rant little or no cause for complaint. True, there are several governmental policies that could doubtless be im proved on, but this has always been the case and always will be from the viewpoint of opposing partisans. More over, it matters not what party is in power, there will always be rich men conspicuous in the affairs of govern ment and we suppose we will have to tolerate their pres- 1 ence. They come in very handy, too, as subjects for ex coriation from political orators when they have nothing else to talk about. The republicans will probably wel come a campaign on the mildewed tariff issue, and the old stereotyped attack on "predatory wealth." If these are to be the dominant planks in the democratic platform we may look forward to a presidential campaign as in teresting as a sewing bee. Roseburg Review. 1 ;!

Tax Repeal Boomerang Estate Taxes Are Logical Solution The plan to abolish federal estate taxes would in actual practice destroy the ability of states to levy inheri tance taxes because of the competition which would de velop between the states in the way of encouraging the repeal of state inheritance tax laws.- This would encour age the migration of capital and capitalists from states which levy inheritance taxes, to those which do not levy inheritance taxes. Also the repeal of the federal estate tax would deprive the federal government of its. only means of securing revenue from tax-free securities, now Lx. mi.t undi-r tho federal income tax law. There is no good reason why bankers, merchants, farmers and other business men should ask congress to lay heavier tax burdens on themselves in order to afford relief to the estates of owners of tax-exempt securities which avoid taxation during the life of their owners. "Big money rushes to tax-exempts as iron filings to a magnet " Large fortunes thus invested ought to pay estate taxes until the federal constitution is amended to permit taxation of their income during the life of their owners. One of the principal objections to inheritance taxes is the fact that such taxes are frequently levied on the same property by several different states, as well as by the federal government. This multiple taxation would not be remedied except in a small degree by the repeal of federal estate taxes. This duplication can be very easily remedied by amending the federal law to provide that credit on federal estate taxes shall be given for all inheritance or estate taxes paid to states. The Best o Advice n CLARK KIW.UKD Sunny Dick Says Every generation, no matter ow paltry lis character, thinks j ! Itself much wiser than'' the. oiidJ i immediately preceding ft. let alone ' those that are remote. j It is Just the same with the I different periods of a man's life, j In the years of physical growth, j When our powers of mind and our stores of knowledge am receiving daily additions, It becomes a habit to look down with contempt upon yesterday, as has been said. The habit takes root, and remains even after the Intellectual pow ers have begun to decline when today should rather look up with respect to yesterday. This is the place for Schopen hauer's observation that, ulllioiigh in Its main qualities a man's In tellect or head as well as his char acter heart, Is Innate, yet the for mer is by no means bo unalterable In Its nature as the latter. "The fact Is that the intellect Is subject to very many transfor mations, which, as a rule, do not fail to make their actual appear ance; and this Is so, partly be cause the Intellect has a deep foundation in the physique, and partly because the material with which It deals Is given In exper ience." And so we find that If a man has any peculiar strength, It first gradually Increases In strength until It reaches Its acme after which It enters upon a path of slow decadence, until It tndu in Imbecility, But on the other hand, as Schopenhauer points out, wo must not lose sight of the fact that the material which Rives employment to a man's powers end keeps them In activity the subject matter if thought and knowledge, experi ence, Intellectual attainments, und the practice of seeing to the bot tom of things, that Is, a perfect mental vision, fori In themselves a mass which continues to In crease In size, until the time comes when weakness shows It self, and the man's powers sud denly full.

AMI HtlX AT WAR A mother Is nlwoyj being called upon to be a peacemaker. Squabbles of children are easy in settle, but she finds herself In a different position when there Is trouble between her husband and a child. A mother writes: Dear Mrs. Thompson: My hus band and my son antagonise each other and It keeps mo constantly worried lo keep peace. Kuch one thinks Die other unjust und each conies to ni with sulks.
