TIDLAMí'OK HEADLIGHT. WlauuioR IkaMùiht Fred C. Baker, Editor. SUBSCRIPTION per year >2.00 not be surprised that it is subject to just criticism, even by persons in this county who have been good friends of the Commission. to death, for there was never an ad­ ministration in the United Staic-s that blowed in the people's money »0 wastefully as President Wilson and the democratic administration have done the past seven years. Put this little incident—not that it is a very little incident as far as dollars and cents are concerned—squarely before the people of the county. The hign cost of living and high cost of run­ ning the government are two import­ ant matters now confronting the peo­ ple. In 1914 it cost the taxpayers >2,000,000 a day : nu this year It ex­ ceeds $ 15.00ft.00' a day. Talk about "he kept us out or war" fooling the people, why the way the demorcatic party make.- the taxpayers dig down deep into their pockets and ocugh p their money is surprising, yet the democrats of this neck of the woods are shouting for more of it. An in­ crease of >13.000.000 a day to run the government is going some, and that it will be increased if Cox is elected, with Tammany and all the other democratic bosses to be satis­ fied at the political pie counter. Wny it is going to force the taxpayers ro go down deeper into their pockets and dig up for higher taxes. Those who like to be humbugged should vote f .1 Governor Cox and Senator Chamber- lain, but those who want their taxes reduced and the government run on a business basis are going to vote for Senator Harding for president.

"let us resume our national freedom and have noth­ ing to do with this great engine whereby the few strong victorious governments are trying to increase their hold over the world." 1920 some sort of a fool procedure out .there permitting anybody who wants 1 a freak measure on your books to get a handful of petitioners to put it on 1 the ¿allot artd there is no telling ' what kind of a fool thing you will pass at any time. The Initiative and Referendum is alright in theory. Why don’t you pass a law requesting 25 ' or 50 per cent of the registered vo’- ers to sign a petition to get a mea­ sure on the ballot. That would stop ' such fool things as that 5 per cent Interest Law you are going to trp Io ' pass. You know about our selling ' our Oregon timber. We are »eliirig ' it on a long payment contract. The ' matter is now hanging up on accojit of that fool 5 per cent Interest Law you are going to vote on in Novji.t- her. “We cannot afford to have money outstanding to return us only 5 per cent. They cannot afford to engage in business and carry bills receivable on which they can’t collect more than 5 per cent. So there you are. I do not know how it will end up. I have a. little money 1 want to set ( out. What kind of Washington and California bonds do you have? “Yes there you are. The above is not an isolated case. It is the or­ dinary thing we run into when we try to sell Oregon securities outside the State. The 5 per cent interest law is .of course, a new angle—that’s all,” contiuued Mr. Freeman. "What are the people thinking of? Do they think the banks are going to contin­ ue paying them 4 per cent on their savings and time deposits when the bankers will have to carry up to 50 per cent reserve to be safe while pay­ ing big rates outside to keep their business alive and then cannot loan their money higher than 5 per cent? What do they think they are going to be able to do in providing water work systems, school, sewers and general municipal Improvements when bonds cannot bear a higher ' rate of interest than 5 per cent and ■ I cannot be sold below par. He is right, all right. This certaiqly is a freak state. I am not unhopefully, how ever that we will grow out of this thing and settle down to plain common sense.
