I THE KLAMATH DAILY NEWS gffiag AN INDEPENDENT REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPER "Let a hare faith that thai faith let a to the end understand it." Abraham Shifting the Three Farmers Who pays taxes in the Klamath irrigation district? Not President t Bradbury, or, Secretary Thomas 'of the. district board. And not their friend and supporter, Char les .Wood Eberlein. Perhaps Bradbury and .Thomas are tp be indulged non-payment. They have no repu tations as successful producing farmers.; The hard life of a dirt farmer may be too strenuous for them. Bradbury would be a politician and lead his followers down and .out of the . promised land of irrigation. Thomas cannot, , by the wildest stretch of imagination, be class ed as a successful farmer. In any event the taxes of, Bradbury and Thomas are carried by the rest of the district on certificates of delinquency. At least Brad bury is consistent in his philosophy of rule among the ruins for he does only what he. ad vises the rest of his followers to do, and that '. is not to pay their taxes. , - But why Eberlein, land speculator, extra ordinary, should have his taxes relinquished and saddled on the rest of the farmers who work to make their land pay is a mystery, remaps, in the logic or these gentlemen,, it is ; because Eberlein, like Bradbury and Thomas, is not a successful farmer. Sft Sfr )fi 1ft If Eberlein had been broke and down and out he might have been entitled to Bradbury's sympathy. But he had just profited to the extent of $142,000 on the sale of a terminal site to the Oregon Trunk. Extreme poverty was no plea. ' The secret is that Bradbury, as a politi cian, knows the value, of building an organiza tion. And the wheels of his organization ; work perfectly. He looked after his cam paign manager of last year, P. C. Carlson, to f the tune of $900, and if there is a farmer in , Klamath county who thinks that was on the level, let him stand up in the meeting at .Hen ley today and yell for Bradbury. A newspaper is . essential to the proper workings of a political organization, so Brad bury has two of them. Jacob helps support one newspaper at Malin, and is valuable to Bradbury because he will do exactly what Bradbury says. Otherwise Jacob is harmless. Eberlein with his $142,000 helps support the notorious publication in Klamath Falls. No, Voters, the reason of Eberlein's ability to dodge his taxes and make you pay them, is no mystery. Get the dust out of your eyes and make this election on Tuesday tell the world you can't be fooled by this crew. If it's facts you want we know where you : stand.

UP MY; 'jj ' Sunny Dick Says Don't They Know It: A little ruffle here, "a Uttle fluffle there. Catches all the eyes of men And .makes 'em .star?. Last week President Coollrige promised to make nine formal speeches, setting definite dates, and accepted five more invita tions to talk, dates to be announc ed later. "Silent Cal." .'The wife says one advantage of a formal opening is that you can look and look to your heart's con tent and not feel that you have to buy. It was a new and agreeable sensation for her to have a pleas ant lady clerk Intone, "Well. I'm sorry; but I couldn't sell you this tonight, you know. ' Tomorrow, surely." These formal openings are be coming all the rage In Klamuth. It certainly draws a lot of poten tial customers.. They like It, too. Just wait until all our stores start having 'em. Fall openings, Spring openings, etc., with maybe a few living models strutting their stuff Just like the big league stores do. At the grand opening of our new department store a subtle and unquestionably intentional com pliment was paid to the men. The flowers advertised as to be given to all women visitors didn't last 30 minutes, but the cigars for tho men good cigars, too lasted the full two hours of the opening. Don't tell me that store manager doesn't know who pays the hills. Prefect Kmln Bey, of Con stantinople police, has provided his men with stout planks Dril ling with nails, to be cast In front of speeding cars that refuse to stop. It certainly looks as though Turkish speeders are going to be nailed. It Is basely rumored that the county court has set out holly trees 'in the court house lawn as a far-sighted economy. At Chrixt mas each year the customary holly wreaths for decorating the county building and Jnll can bo made from the home-grown raw mat-terlals.

Al though It was ycf early In The' evening the shop was closed and apparently deserted. However, he banged on the front door with somo effect, and at length the shoe maker thrust his head through an upper win dow. "What d'ye want?" he asked. "My shoes of course," retorted the indignant customer. "You said you'd have them ready for me tonight." "Hut haven't you heard?" an swered the shoe maker. "My busi ness has failed. I've gone bank rupt." "I don't core about that! I want my shoes. I tell you!" he cried nnsrlly. The shoo repairer disappeared, and a .moment or so later one boot came hurtling down at his custo mer's feet, narrowly missing that Irate gentleman's head. "Hut what about the other?" he cried. "That's all you'll get!" came the boot maker's angry rejoinder. "I'm only paying 60 cents on the dollar." i The average pupil seems lo have considerable trouble In pro nouncing the terminal "g" of present participles. "Robert," said a teacher, dur ing the reading exercises, "please read the first sentence."
