It Is to be hoped as many Salem peo ple as possible will contribute 25 cunts to this very noblo enterprise. By referring to the county court proceedings printed elsewhere It will be seen the Salem Statesman charges and collects a lump sum of $500 for publishing a notice of lands sold for delinquent taxes. There arc also smaller items allowed for local notices of the sheriff's taxsale . This bill of $500 is an outrageous tax imposed upon a people already un able to pay their taxes. It is a tax of from $1.00 to $5.00 added to tho cost In each case of a lot or farm sold for tuxes, and makes it that much moro impossible for this unfortunate class to redeem. Why, In such hard times, such enormous bill is taxed up can only be explained by the fact that the Statesman is hard up and forced to rob the people. Sheriff Crolsan had his list of de liuquenls published in two-newspapers (including the Statesman) at a cost of $1G0, which was not paid by the county at all. Another sheriff had the same kind of work done in The Journal when times were the best ever known here for from 20 to 30 cents a description. Why as times grow harder these charges should be in creased on the taxpayer Is a mystery cleared only by the suggestion of an over voracloiii appetite of a bankrupt publisher. The charge of $500 In a lump sum has no basis in reason, justice or busi ness common sense. Why should It not have charged at so much per line or per square.as to any other Indlyidual? now did the Statesman estimate that this was worth exactly $500? Did it need just that sum at that time? The sheriff orders this advertising and then collects the printer's bill off the delinquent taxpayer. The sheriff does not fix this charge. He appor tions It among the persons who buy the land at tax sale. A large part the STAYTON, County Treasurer G. L. Brown and wife, spent thoholldavs In town, visit ing with relatives. Arthur Elder is homo from Van couver, for a short visit with his parents. Miss Deau Kitchens, a student at the Willamette university, Is home, enjoying a ten days' vacation. Miss Pearl Hobson, a teacher from the Mineral Spring College, at Soda Tille, Is home on a holiday vacation. Mr. and Mrs. Rlely Thomas were guests at the home of Mrs. Henlines, Christmas day. Misses Ethel Gardner and Alice Bals'.ey, students at the Salem unlver- Ity, came home Wednesday fora short vacation. David Wyatt, of Eugene, was a Stayton visitor Saturday. Rev. Aldrlch returned from Indiana Thursday artcrnoon, where he has been doing evangelical work for the past year. Mrs. Bulsley and daughter Alice, drove to Lyons Saturday, for a short visit with Mrs. D. Wyatt. The masquerade Christmas eve at the opera house, was a very pleasant and social dance. The prizes for the best representation, was awarded to Miss Brown, of Sublimity, and Mr. nermann Shelberg, also of Sublimity. Saturday night the Masons of the Stayton Lodge, gave a public installa tion and supper at the opera house, in honor of their members and invited guests. At 7:30 the order marched in uniform from their lodge rooms to the cpera house, where a program was furnished by the wives and daughters of the members. A song by the choir opened the program; following came a Christmas selection, entitled "Santa Claus, In the Mines," by Miss Tempest Dunnlyln; a reading entitled "Ma sonry exposed," by Mrs. W. H. Hob son, was next listened to, which closed the first part of the program. After the installation, all were invited to partake of all the good things with which the tables was fairly loaded. A social time was Indulged In until a late hour, when the choir sang one more song, closing the enjoyable even ing's entertainment.

LANK, connty bids in: A large part is never paid. The sheriff may not collect this $500 taken out of the county treasury. Chances are ho will not collect near that. The publication in the Statesman Is at an outrageous price to the tax payer, and what is worse it is so full of errors that careful buyers of tax titles would not bid. They would not risk their money on Imperfect descriptions and incor rect names. Scores of pieces of prop erty in that list had the money to redeem them put up and ready to buy until it was found no title could bo secured with safety on such a publi cation. The Journal calls uttention to these facts solely to protect the pub lic, as it is a well known fact a news paper has nothing to gain by exposure of extravagance in public affairs. Even from a political standpoint the Statesman, as the alleged Republican party organ, will not be upheld even by Republicans in making this out rageous charge. If such things are upheld in the name of party it will drive hundreds more of good men out of tho'party. No one who knows tho Statesman's circumstances and meth ods can believe that it is done with milking the tax roll, or that It will not bring in still larger bills to be paid perhaps In a few months and perhaps In a few years from now.
