Big Packing Companies Still “Knock
ing Tillamook Cheese.
From the Telegram. .. .
That discrimination is shown again
st this city by the interests in control
of the Tillamook cheese situation, is
the opinion of at least one man
whose firm handles immense quanti
ties of cheese annually.
The statement was made this morn
ing by R- A. Lee, manager of Swift
& Co., who stated that recently he
had endeavored to purchase close to
2000 cases of the Tillamook product
at 15% cents, delivered in Portland,
but had been turned down by Carl
Haberlach, the selling agent for 19
Tillamook factories, who would not
ship any cheese to him for less than
151^ cents, although a few days ago
he had sold him 129 cases at the price
Mr. Lee offered.
"Late yesterday,” said Mr. Lee, “I
received
word from Seattle that
agents 01 Mr. Haberlach were in that
city and were offering any number of
cases of Tillamook cheese to the
trade there at 15 cents, delivered in
Seattle, but he refused point blank
to sell me several hundred cases de
livered here for less than 15% cents.
Why? It looks to me like rank dis
crimination and will result in but one
thing. I shall bring all my cheese,
and we handle thousands of pounds
of it every year, from Wisconsin. Mr.
Haberlach has succeeded in loading
California with Tillamook cheese and
now is apparently trying to do the
same thing with the Washington
market and is passing us up. Why he
should sell to Seattle for a half a cent
less than to us, is a mystery I am un
able to explain.”
Reports from California show that
there is today in storage in that state
1,484,167 pounds of cheese against
870,915 pounds at this time last year,
or a gain of 615,252 pounds.
In the opinion of Mr. Lee and
others, the Portland market is to be
left until the last and then an effort
is to be made to unload remaining
stocks here, but at prices lower than
now quoted. Mr. Lee believes that
Tillamook cannot get along without
the local market but also feels that
unless conditions are changed, out
side cheese will be the ruling factor
here.

Why and Wherefore.
Assuming that the Journal is hon
estly seeking information when it
asks why the Republicans of Oregon
should vote for R. A. Booth for Uuit-
ed States Senator, The Spectator
hastens to enlighten its knowledge
hunting contemporary. The Repub-
licons of Oregon should and will vote
for R. A. Booth because Mr. Booth i:
a Republican.
And there is much more to voting
for a Republican senator and con
gressman than the esteemed Demo
cratic Journal would have us believe
There is protection to Oregon s in
dustries. That is something. There
is a living price for the millmen for
their lumber, to the farmer for their
products, and to the sheepmen for
their wool and mutton.
All these
things amount to something, and ate
among the reasons why Republicans
should and will vote for Mr. Booth.
The Spectator hopes this short
statement has given the Journal a
little light.
And now, may The Spectator ask
the Journal a question? Why should
the Republicans of Oregon vote for
Mr. Chamberlain? What has Mr.
Chamberlain done for the Oregon
farmers, sheepmen, and lumbermen
that they should become non-part'
sans, and vote for his return to the
Senate? It is true, the price of wool
has advanced since Chamberlain vot
ed for free wool. But was that due
to the removal of the tariff? If it was,
political economy is a monstrous
fraud, and Senator Chamberlain has
been grossly deceived by it. Senator
Chamberlain in a spirited burst of
eloquence declared that free wool
would ruin his constituents in Oregon
and piteously begged that his fellow
Democrats would not sacrifice them
in the interest of the foreign sheep
owner. Even if the increase in the
price of wool was due to the free
trade tariff, Senator Chamberlain
cannot point with pride to that fact,
because in his spirited speech he op
posed *',e removcl of the tariff; then
his love for Democratic principals
proved greater than his regard for his
constituents, and when the Demo
cratic whip cracked he voted for the
thing that he said would bankrupt
the wool growers of Oregon.
Why should any Republican vote
for Mr. Chamberlain?—Spectator.
The speculations of Washington
correspondents that Mr. Underwood
and Mr. Clark are sparring for posi
tion in 1916 are more or less ingen
ious, but they do not accord great
political acumen to either of those
gentlemen. It may be true that the
president desires only a single term
The speech he made several months
ago in which he referred to the
thoughts that filled him as he looked
across the Potomac and tried to read
the desires of the masses indicated
otherwise. His studied avoidance of
the single-term plank in the Balti
more platform may have the same
significance.
But this is not neces
sarily so, for there might be strategy
in keeping the members of Congress
guessing as to his plans.
That the
care of office oppress him could have
been readily surmised from, some re
cent rather petulant allusions to
sneer and criticism. But within the
last few days he has become more
cheerful, to o upward appearances
That he hopes to nSme Mr. Bryan as
his successor settns.improbable, for
everybody who ft not blinded by his
friendship for the »ecretary of state
realizes that he is weaker in the
country than he has been at any time
since his phenomenal appearance in
■896a» a national figure. As a politi-
eal preacher he was powerful, but
aside from his peace treaties, which
will rot give him any special strength
with ordinary voters, there has been
little about his work in office which
has not dimmed rather than bright
ened his fame.
I
Law to be Voted on at the
Next Election.
Petitions are being circulated to
secure the required number of signa
tures to place upon the ballot at the
«lection in November the
High S-hool Fund Law” for Tilla
mook County.
Under this law the county high
school board will have power to con
tract with districts to teach the high
school studies and instead of the dis
tricts where high schools are estab
lished being burdened with such ex
pense, the expense will be born by
the whole county. This will more
equally divide taxes for their support
and permit of high schools being es
tablished in central locations.
We are giving the law as published
in Oregon School Laws for 1913, as
follows:
COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL FUND.
361 County Court to Submit Ques
tion.
The County Court, at any general
election to be held in any county af
ter the passage of this act, upon the
presentation of a petition signed by
ten per cent or more qualified school
electors of said county, must submit
the question of creating a county
high school fund to the qualified
electors thereof. Such election shall
be conducted in the manner provided
by law for conducting elections. The
County Clerk shall give thirty days
notice that the question will be sub
mitted to the legal voters of the coun
ty. The ballot for such election shall
contain the words For County High
School Fund-yes;” For County High
School Fund—no;” and the voter
shall indicate his choice as provided
in the Australian ballot law.”
362— Board, How Constituted.
Whenever it has been decided by
any county, at any election, to create
a high school fund, in accordance
with Sec. 361, such fund shall be un
der the control of a county high
schol board, consisting of the county
judge and th two commisisoners, the
county treasurer and the county
school superintendent, who shall act
in their official capacity as such board
the county judge to be exoffico chair
man, and the county schol superin
tendent ex-officio secretary.
The
members of the board shall serve
without compensation.
363— Board to Contract With Dis
tricts.
It shall be the duty of the county
high school board, within thirty days
after returns have been canvassed by
the regular canvassing board of said
county, if a county high school has
been provided for in accordance with
Sec. 362, to contract with all dis
tricts that maintain a high school, in
accordance with the requirements of
367, to teach all high school pupils of
said county that may attend a high
school, in the district.
364— Board Must Furnish Estimate
of Funds.
The county high school board shall
also make an estimate of the amount
of money to pay the tuition of all
high school pupils for the next twelve
months, and submit each estimate to
the county court, whose duty it shall
be thereupon to levy a special tax up
on all the assessible property of the
county sufficient to raise the money
estimated, and necessary for paying
said tuition. Said tax shall be com
puted, entered upon the tax roll, and
collected in the same manner as other
taxes, and designated as the "County
High School Fund,” and shall be de
posited in the county treasurer.
365— Tuition, How Paid.
For the purpose of paying tuition
of said high school pupils, the county
high school board shall draw an or
der on the county treasurer, which
shall be signed by the president and
secretary of such board, whereupon
the county treasurer shall pay such
warrant and charge the same to the
county high school fund; provided
that the total amount of such war
rants shall not exceed the amount of
money actually in the hands of the
treasurer to the credit of the county
high school fund.
366— Distribution of Fund.
The basis for the distribution of the
county high school fund shall be up
on the average daily attendance dur
ing the school year. The total amount
of money paid to any district during
the schol year shall not be less than
$40 per pupil for the first roof such
average daily attendance, and $30 for
the second 20; nor more than $12.50
per pupil for all the remaining pupils.
But the total paid any district shall
not exceed the amount paid by the
district to the teachers employed
therein.
367— State Board of Education to
Prescribe Regulations.
It shal be the duty of the state
board of education to prescribe rules
and regulations specifying the stan
dard that must be maintained by all
high schools relative to number of
months taught, number of teachers
employed, number of recitation per
iods daily, and course of study, before
any high school shall be entitled to
receive tuition for any high school
pupil from the county high school
fund.
_
_
,
, ,
36»—District Must Comply with
State Rules.
.
No high school shall be entitled to
receive tuition for any pupil from the
county high school fund, nor shall
any «'arrant on said fund be drawn in
favor of any district until the county
superintentend has certified to the
county high school board that the
district has complied with the rules
and regulations provided for in sec
tion 467.
369—Entrance Requirements.
No high school shall be entitled to
receive tuition for any high schoo
pupil from the county high school
fund, unless such pupil holds an
eighth hrade diploma from county in
this state, or its equivilent from some
other state; provided, that this sec
tion shall not apply to any pupil now
enrolled in any high school. All ques
tions at issue arising under- the pro
visions of this section shall be deter
mined by the county school superin
tendent whose decision in the matter
will be final.
j^o—Pupil Must Complete Course
in Residence District.
No tuition shall be paid for a high
school pupil to any district, except to
the district in which his parents or
guardian shall actually reside, during
the time of said pupils attendance in
such district; provided that the tui
tion may be paid for a high school
pupil to a district other than his resi
dence district if the high school is not
in session in the residence district of
such pupil; or if such pupil has com
pleted the course of study offered in
his resident district; or if he has ob
tained the consent of the county high
school board to" attend school in a
district other than his residence dis
trict.
RESEMBLES THE PIED PIPER.
Eastern Oregon Paper Warns Again
st Sending Taxes Higher With
New Laws.
\ cry sensibly realizing that nearly
all the new laws proposed to be enac
ted under the Initiative or by the
Legislature will add to the burdens of
the taxpayer, the Moro, Sherman
county. Observer, has the following
editorial on the 31 measures that are
before the people. It shows that not
only will they send taxes higher but
some of them are aimed at distract
ion of property and industries. It
says:
«
"During the last primary campaign,
and the same issue will again conic to
the front as the day of election draws
near, is the pledge of the man for of
fice for economy in public affairs and
more particularly and insistent is he
in declaring for lower taxes.
"In this same connection if recent
past elections
and the proposed
measures coining before the people
at the November election has demon
strated nothing else it has at least
convinced the great majority of ser
ious minded and thinking people of
Oregon that a few agitators are try
ing to convince the people of the
state at large that the more initiative
legislation the people of Oregon en
act the nearer the government is to
the people and there are some who
actually believe that if all the reject
ed initiative measures of the last few
years had been enacted this state
government would be nearly perfect;
when in truth the government of the
State has become one of experiment
and that to the detriment of the peo- ’
pie who make up the population.
I
"Under such a circumstance of what
practical use is the pledge of the can
didate for economy in office when the
voters shift more and larger tax bur
dens to themselves?
Particularly
when there are other methods, not
provided, for getting the horse in the
barn.
“Adoption of one amendment pro
posed would result in destroying the
value of extensive farm lands in the
Willamette Valley; would destroy the
valuy of large investments in the
manufacturing industries, and would
certainly put a larger number of men
out of employment who now patron
ize and use the avenues of trade
throughout the state.”

Our exports will undoubtedly be
swelled by exportations of portions
of the new crops. The continuing in- .

however show a necessary displace
