Tillamook Headliglit. July 30, 1914. more tommy rot . high school fund . 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.” A Gleam of Sunshine.
