I AN INDEPENDENT REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPER "Lac ua kawe faith that thai faith let ui to tha end understand it." Abraham Shifting the Three Fanners Who pays taxes in the Klamath irrigation district? Not President A Bradbury, or, Secretary Thomas of the. dipt ict board, 1 And not their friend and supporter, Char les .Wood Eberlein. Perhaps Bradbury and .Thomas are. to be: indulged non-payment. They have no repu tations as successful producing farmers. The hard life of a dir$ farmer rnay .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? pvf is ra mystery. ( ! Perhaps, in the logic of these gentlemen, it is ; because Eberlein, like Bradbury and Thomas, . is not a successful farmer. 3fc 3 Sfi fc 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 ; 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 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. Spain and France and the Spaniards will and Fridays. riht male might, and in dare to do our duty aa wo Lincoln. . . Tax Burden Who Don't Pay will do exactly what are co-operating now, be targets on Tuesdays THE KLAMATH DAILY NEWS- ff&gj Looks Like It's Going To Be a Long Session aSSSS. Sunny Dick Says Don't They Know It : A little ruffle here. "A little Muffle there. Catches all the eyes of men And makes 'em .stare. Last week President Coolirtge promised to make nine formal speeches, setting definite dates, and accepted fire 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 yon 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 Klamath. It certainly draws a lot of poten tial customers.. They llko 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 the mengood cigars, too lasted the full two hours of the opening. Don't tell me that store manager doesn't know who pays the bills. Prefect Emln Bey, of Con stantinople police, has provided his men with stout planks brim- j ling with nails, to be cast In front I of speeding cars that refuse to i stop. It certainly looks as though Tnrklsh speeders are going to be nailed. j It Is basely rumored that the i county court has set out linlly j trees 'In the court house lawn as j a far-sighted economy. At Chrlm- ' mas each year the customary hnlly ! wreaths for decorating the county j building and Jail can he made from the home-grown raw mat- j terlals. i After a Month's Study Famous Geologist Says Klamath Has Evi dence of Oil Secretions.

'That's all you'll get!" came the boot maker's angry rejoinder. "I'm only paying 60 cents on the dollar." t The average pupil seems to have considerable trouble In pro nouncing the terminal "g" of present participles, "Robert," said a teacher, dur ing the reading exercises, "pleaso read the first sentence."
