OFFICIAL PAPER FOR CITY OF KLAMATH FALLS An Independent Republican Newspaper Conducted "Let us have faith that that faith let ui to the end understand it." Abraham Helping the Enemy Opponents Invite Income Tax Issue I1 Opponents of a state income tax are taking jva big, broad view of the situation. It is a view ;.that will go a long way toward establishing confidence in Oregon. Instead of obstructing ;! the proposed initiative measures finding a ' place on the November ballot they are actually urging that assistance be given the so-called I Grange bill in securing signatures for the peti tion in order that a distinct issue may be i brought before the people. The Greater Oregon association comes out flatly against any state income tax. It is an as- sociation that frankly publishes the names of its backers. .It is an organization devoted to "" sane and constructive legislation in the inter- est of Oregon development. It promises a i genuine campaign on the subject of education, Lj if its present stand may be taken as any indi ') cation, in full confidence that the people of ' Oregon may see the light, jj Financial help is asked for the Grange and lj Farmers' union which are jointly filing the jj first income tax bill. Credit is given their bill j; as being a carefully drawn-up measure, even j! while the political motives back of the bill are J! decried. It is emphatically stated that the j; politicians that are deluding the farmers have : little conception of the fiscal requirements of ilihe state. .. . --..-.v There is another organization known as the i Public Service league. This group is not fully : identified. It has the so-called offset bill in ; hand by which property taxpayers may pre ; sent tax receipts in lieu of the payment of in come tax. . , Short shrift, is given the offset bill by the Greater Oregon association. "They believe :i that if we are going to have an income tax we ought to have one that is harmless," says the ; association. It continues: "That is a mistake ;' in policy. What Oregon must do, and do ' II speedily, is to settle the income tax issue." i! This plan of approaching the entire consid i eration in placing it before the people is fair to . the last degree. The issue will be placed be . fore the people in an intelligent manner. Ore gon has had many vexing tax problems. Poli ticians have not failed to take advantage of the situation. It is time the people were thor oughly informed as to the real lack of merit behind the tax situation as it now stands, so created as it is by the politicians. The Greater Oregon association is to be congratulated on the scope of its plan for carrying out the campaign. When those who oppose your pet measure help to assist you in getting it on the ballot confidence is awakened ' at the very beginning. It isn't a real crisis unless the cusswords increase 40 per cent. i When a locomotive I in three seconds, change before he gets on the ijournal.

Limpingly the typewriter keys clicked off the stereotyped phrase, with a sharp "tck" affixed the period and came to a short and sudden stop. "Whew! What a day!" The Capable Typi.it wiped a heated brow and gazed at the din gy,' brick walls of the factory across the way. "Slave! Slave! From morn till night, and for what? liaises in this office are as scarce as June in December! I have been here two years now and -in the old pay envelope not an added pen ny! Could manage to struggle along, though, at the same so-much-per for I suppose times are hard if only I didn't have to rush so to get 'caught up.' Ugh! Makes me sick just to think of all I must do before I leave for home!" The Capable Typist Rma.ncd and glanced at the pile of letters in the wire basket, "Don't know what Is the mat ter with me, but I simply can't 'pep up' like I used to. This is the third day I've gone without a 4 ting ahead with the work Is con cerned, I am like a squirrel in a cage, going round and round nnd not getting anywhere at all." "In the spring a young maid's fancy turns to " chanted a cheery voice. The Capable Typist turned to find the Young Assistant Man ager at her side. " Vacation, a comfy ham mock , a pair of white shoes, a new hat with red cherries on It, nothing to do, and most of all, something to eat!" finished she sharply. Then In spite of herself she smiled. The eyes twinkling down at her were so friendly. "Itather thought it wasn't lore that held your thoughts!" Isugh' ed the Young Assistant. "1 per haps I was mistaken I thought I henrd you grumbling."

You did," ad mitted the Capable Typist, less crossl.Vj "I'm tired and I have a headache and I am melting and I am the last person la the world to clioo. as a merry little com panion this afternoon." "I get you," chuckled the Young Assistant. "And I pass by on my own business bent. Hut you have my sympathy. I felt ! just as you do only an hour ago. Three men's work for a one man job.' thought I. And In no time at all I growled myself Into tho mad-enough-to-rhcw-nalla state of mind, so futal on a warm day. Gut ten-penny nails being out of reach, I decided to put my molara to work on something more satis fying. A palatable luncheon, a shave and I am fueling fit again! Wonderful what a seance with a barber wilt do for one!" The Young Assistant passed on. The Capable Typist reached for her handbag anil surrepltiously studied herself in Its diminutive mirror. Complexion sallow! Skin rough! Wrinkles marring the smoothness of the forehead! An unsightly blackhead! Shadows beneath the eyes. Tresses stniKgly and shecn Icss! "Not a pretty picture," sighed the f'upahle Typi-t. "Work! I have made of It a fetish and It has made of itie a frump!" "Wonderful what a seance with the barber will do for one!" The Young Assistant's words flashed through li'T mind. (Sauce for the gander. Is sauce for the goose! The Capable Typist powdered her nose, pinned on her hat and fleparted. The scene shifts.

The Capable Typist attacks and vanquishes the contents of the wire basket! A word to the wise: "Time off" for refreshment fur body as well as for mind is time, not lost, but won! Dinner Stories Thu guests at the boarding ta ble were discussing diets. "I lived on eggs nnd milk for two months," remarked ono lady, "and I actually gained ten pounds." "And I," said a gentleman, lived for more than a year on nothing hut milk, and gained In weight every day." "Mercy!" enme the chorus. "How did you munugu lo do it?" The gentleman smiled. "I can not say that I remember," he re plied, "but I presume my method was similar to that of other babies." The sweet young thing entered the public library nnd inquired whether "The Ited Ilont was In. We've no book of that name," she wns told "Oh, I'm sorry," sold the girl. "I made a mistake. I mean 'The Scarlet Launch'." After a senrch the librnry as sistant reported that no such book was In the lihrnry. "Hut I'm sure you must have It," Insisted the girl. Suddenly she opened her handbag and pro duced a slip of paper. She blushed. "I beg your pardon," she said. "It's 'The Ruby Yacht,' by a man named Omar, thnt I want." "Well, look here, my man," the old gentleman said, "what would yon say If I offered you work?" "Illess yer life, sir," came the reply, "I wouldn't mind It a bit.
