H
GOVERNMENTS BY THE PEOPLE OR OFFICIALS.
The whole controversy over the big appropriations made by the
legislature grows out of our inverted form of government.
As a matter of fact, the official elements not only engineer
the big appropriations but manage the campaign to head off the
referendum.
All through the legislature runs the game of the ever-expanding
demands of officialism.
The question is never, how economically can a department or
an institution be run, or hofv can we reduce the expenses?
But the only question is, how can we make more places for
officials, how can we get more out of the treasury?
Mere clerkships are expanded into state offices, in violation of
the constitution.
Subdivisions of a department are legislated into bureaus, of
ficials not provided for by the constitution are given assistants,
and commission after commission has authority to draw on the
treasury. ,
A mere department head is enlarged to a superintendent of
this or that at increased salary, and assistants are provided at
fat salaries each.
Institutions of higher education are "loaded" in the same way,
instead of being made more nearly self-sustaining.
High pressure officialism runs clear through from Washington
to local affairs.
Federal officials get state laws passed, and double-shoot the
taxpayer by drawing both state and federal salaries at the same
time.
There are quite a number of these double-headers in Oregon.
The man who opposes predatory officialism must expect viru
lent abuse and hired detraction and villification of the benefi
ciaries of all forms of graft.
The people are getting wise to the impositions of the system.
Thi3 issue cannot be shunted and government must proceed
from the governed or the gov-erning class.
If it proceeds from the latter it costs twice as much as' it
should, and the taxpayer pays the carnival bills. ,
Mr. Parkison says the big corporations got special protection,
and helped logroll through five million dollars of jobs.
He may have overstated the graft, but not very much.
The legislature appropriates millions, but it creates offices
that are permanent burdens of millions more.
The direct appropriations of money represent only one-half
the burdens fastened upon the necks of the people.
Assistant-this, Commissioner-that, Board-for-this, Commis-sion-for-that,
clerks to do campaign work, the tailings of the
feather-duster brigade all pile up the taxes.
The Desert Land Board, the Water Board, the Forestry
Board, the various Land Boards, and the same multiplication of
functions for earth, air, sea andsky, children, sheep, game, fish,
fruit, bugs, microbes, and even salaried officials to set China
pheasant hens on state game preserves all disclose the spread
ing disease of paternalism.
' This system is not peculiar to Oregon, but is nation-wide.
It is a product of the educational system that at public ex
pense sharpens the wits of the already favored and predatory
class.
This system divorces labor and production from public affairs,
and puts the social parasite class in the saddle.
The officials are not the servants of the people, but their mas
ters and dictators.
The legislature is not representative of the taxpayer, but of
the taxeater.
It takes its instructions not from the governed, but from those
who govern.
As the state grows bigger and wealthier the cost of govern
ment should grow less and less.
But it grows more and more and the functions of government
are duplicated by federal and state laws, from courts to sheep
inspectors. ' .
The referendum is the last and only club left in the hands of
the people, and they too often strike blindly at the effects in try
ing to reach the cause.

Obituary.
Betsy McCune, the subject of this
sketch who died May the 4th 1911, at
the Salem hospital, was born at Isle
La Motte, Vermont, on the 30th day
of March,-1832. In 1846 she moved
with her parents, John and Sarah
Scott, to Iowa. In 1849 she was mar
ried to Joseph W, Shaft and in 1852
they moved to California, coming by
water, being 14 days on the vessel
from New York to Panama and 10
days from Panama to San Francisco.
They moved to Oregon In 1858, living
a short time in Howell Prairie and
also at Roseburg, but purchased and
settled down on a farm two and one
half miles south of Aumsville in 1870
where they spent the remainder of
their lives. Mr. Shaft died April 8th,
1880, after which his widow married
John McCune in 1883, who died May
9, 1899. There were born to Mr. and
Mrs. Shaff four sons, two of whom
are living. Dr. Chas. W., of Lewis
ton, Idaho and Walter D., who re
mains alone on the farm. Mrs. Mc
Cune was a woman of more than or
dinary intelligence, She was a kind
hearted good woman and a Christian
having united with the old Mill creek
or Aumsville Christian church on
May 11, 1862 and remained a mem
ber of the same until her death.
On the quiet hillside, In the land
Where Rolls the Oregon," rest side
by side the remains of those two
pioneers whose lives were ushered
Into existence on the shores of the At
lantic but embued with the spirit of
adventure and conquest, came west
and assisted In building up and de
veloping this western land.
Their lives were such, that in their
declining years, Heb. 11:16 would
have appropriately applied to them.
"But now they desire a better coun-
try, that Is a heavenly, wherefore God
Is not ashamed of them, to be called
their God: for he hath prepared for
them a city."
Mrs. J. S. Starnes, Hickory, N. C,
scaks to those who have a similar
trouble. "I have been bothered
great deal with throat and lung
trouble, and find Foley's Honey and
Tar Compound gives me Immediate
satisfaction and relief." Take Foley's
Honey and Tar Compound for coughs
colds and hoarseness, for children
and grown people. Accept no sub
stitutes. Red Cross Pharmacy,

THIRTEEN MIMTES AD
SIX SECO.NDS THE MARGIN
Thirteen minutes and six seconds
was the margin of time by which the
Y. M. C. A. runners beat the sprinters
of the Chemawa Indian school In the
annual relay race from here to Port
land and which was run Saturday af
ternoon. When the first lap was finished at
Chemawa, the white man led by more
than two minutes and from then on
they continued to lead despite the fact
that the Indians exerted their best ef
forts to reduce the time. When Ore
gon City was reached the Pale faces
had the Indians beaten by over eight
minutes and everybody then realized
that the Indians had lost
schools and the other four were won
by the Indians.

kidney sufferer grateful. To tell how

to hundreds of Salem people readers.
Hrs. L. "W. Moench, 330 S. Main
St., Albany, Ore., says: "I had kid
ney complaint and It was aggra
vated when I caught cold or did any
housework. My back ached severely
and stooping or lifting always caused
sharp, shooting twinges through' my
kidneys. I also had trouble from
the kidney secretions and I knew that
I was In need of a kidney medicine.
Finally Doan's Kidney Pills were
procured for me and their use as
directed brought prompt relief. Be
fore long a complete cure was effect
ed and I am now enjoying good
health." (Statement given February
1908.)
A Second Statement.
