AN ERROR BY soLoNS.
tits Giant-And Makes Much Worry
About Taxes-E Effect in Benton.

| About Taxes-Effect in Benton.
Will taxes be col1ec ed in Benton
as usual next spring, is the ques
/ tion of the hour. Will, indeed,
taxes be collected anywhere in the
state, is the rest of the query. The
late legislature made gigantic err
/ ror in its attempt TO correct the tax
laws. Not one Of the ninety solons
| while they deliberated on the pend
! ing amendments to the tax laws,
discovered that there lurked with
in the lines of the bill an error OF
huge proportions. They made thenew
law become effective on the 1st day,
| of next January. The new law
becoming so effective on the said
first day, repeals the old law in
certain particulars. One of these
particulars is provision directing
the county court at its first session
in said month of January to make
the regular tax levy. But the
monthly meeting of such commis-
sioners does not occur until after
the first day of January, and the
effect of the repealed provision is
that when it does meet the court
will be without authority to make a
tax levy. Without legally made
tax levy, the collection of taxes is
brought to a standstill In case
soulless corporation or vile-souled
individual saw fit to resist payment
of taxes irregular1y or illegally lev
led, the courts might gnot able to
compel either to pay. Some of the
best lawyers in the state declare the
situation to be as above described,
and some of them have suggested
that a special session of the legisla-
ture to correct the giant mistake,
may be necessary. Governor Cham
berlain does not want an extra ses
sion, at an expense of $4,000 Or
something like it, and there the
matter stands. The governor says.
however. that he thinks some way
will be found, without an extra
session. to remedy the condition
In Benton, the authorities are
waiting to see what will turn up.
If there is to be no collection of
taxes, there was no use to make an
assessment roll this year. 1t was
the purpose of the legislature to
collect taxes as usual next spring.
and it was so understood by every
body. All the counties in Oregon
proceeding with that understand
ing, made assessment rolls as usual.
If, after further investigation the
lawyers agree that a collection of
taxes is impossible, all of these
rolls will be vaiueless and useless.
The attorney general has been
called upon for an opinion, but he
has not yet responded with a pro-
nunciamento. There is talk of a
test case to be carried hurried1y
through the supreme court, but
none has yet begun.
In Benton, all preparations for |
collection of taxes will go on as
usual, there being but little more
now to do until all the machinery
will be in readiness. The rolls have
been completed, and ALT footings
made The county board of equal
ization is called to meet on the 28th
and it will proceed to meet, because
the law so directs. AS Governor
says, it is probable
that some simple way will be found
to escape the threatened tax famine.

EARLE BRADBAM TEACES A TEACHER.
A Teachers Right Questioned.

Donald'S. S. c.. Nov. 222.-Today i'll the graded
school building at Due West Mr.. Earle Brad
ham. the principal. had personal difncultE
with Mr. j. <. Todd. trustee. inc luSS vas
because Mr.. Bradham kept in one ct Iood :
children after school.
1t seems that some time ago Mr.. Todd wrote
Mr.. Bradmurn 4 notc and told him not TO keep
in his children after school. DCt touaE WIEN :ii
teacher was reading the list OF those who had
violated the rules and had TO stay in among
them was one OF Todd children
The child remained until everybody left. when
she asked the teacher if She might speak to her
brother who was out OF doors. and the prlncl-
pal told her Yes and she went out 70 speak
to HIM and never came back.
Today Mr.. Todd came to the school and re-
monstra;ed and q fSticufs with the principal fol-
batants 1t is hoped the matter Is ended. Ihe
people Of Due West are on the principals $ SIDE
and will stick to him.
The above is taken from the News
and Courier. and as Mr. Bradham is a
Clarendon boy his friends will be glad
to learn of the outcome of the case.
We have inside information which is to
the effect that Earle Bradham endeav-
ored to avoid a difficulty in the pres
ence of the school children, but his
assailant would not have it so-.- and
Bradham gave him q good sound beat
ing, and is upheld by the people OF Due
West. The town council tried the case,
and fined Todd $50 and eXonerated
Bradham without fine.
Mr.. Todd is a prominent citizen, a
school trustee and s. member of the
legislature, but unfortunately for him
ne permitted his official positions to
cause him to presume on a man who
knew his duty and dared to perform it.

Give us a Third Policeman.

Mr. n. D. Thames, who served on our
nolice force, and was dismissed by coun-
ellis cutting down the force was lmme-
diatelv employed by the merchants to
o,,ard their stores, which is an eXhibi-
ton of confidence Mr.. Thames has
GOOD reason to be proud OF. we are
not running the town, nor are we try
ING to do so, but we pay taxes mere TO
some extent and voice the sentiment OF
others who pay more, and when we say
the council makes a mistake If 1t does
not employ a third policeman, we are
not meddling with the business OF the
members of council, but are simply
standing within our rights as a citizen.
There is hardly day that we do not
read where some little town has been
visited by burglars, cracking safes,
robbing homes, stores, etc., and TO oe
left insuffciently guarded at nlgnt
when the tresury is full OF money Is not
wise. The very fact that the principal
taxpayers in our town employed Mr..
Thames to guard their property out OF
their own funds is convincing proof OF
of their lack of confidence in one-man
guard, and we do not think 1t rlgnt to
create a condition which Will force
those who are heavy taxpayers to gol IN
to their private funds to employ protec-
tion. when the towns treasury is amply
able to stand the expense. What 90
citizens pay taxes for anyway, II 23t
for protection?
It is almost a necessity 10 hevo d po-
-Iicenan at the depot at highland when
there is something doing at the lnstl-
tute one is required there, how can
one man be where he is needed all the
time9 1t is impossible. With one
man guard this town is an easy mark
for criminals, and we hope there are at
least a majority OF council who will in
sist upon the immediate employment of
another policeman.

Consumption is a human

easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes I'M
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
t;on is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you wont.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. It
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. IF it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be :.s
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.
