Living in the heart OF the business
districts of every city and town in
Oregon are hundreds of vacant lots
owned by men and corporations who
will neither sell nor improve their
property. These vacant lots are con-
stantly increasing in value because
of the enterprise of men owning ad-
Jacent property. The vacant lot
escapes its share of taxation because
it is vacant, while the owner of land
next to it is taxed on his improve
ments because he has enterprise
enough to build up the town. The
owner of the vacant land gets rich
from the enterprise of others, pays
but a pittance in taxes to support
the government. and holds back the
settlement of the community. The
East oregonian believes that Oregon
assessors should start a concerted
movement to tax these owners Of Idle
lots until they will build or sell and
allow the vacant land to be u-ec for
the urbuilding of the city Idle city
lots are like parasites. under the
present system Of taxation. They

Since the supreme court Of the
United States by change of front
Of one Of the judges decided against
the income tax law. in 1894. the sum
Of sloo.ocO-oOo has been raised BY
taxation OF the poor which should
have been raised from the gigantic
incomes Of the rich. In all this time
the ability Of the wealthy to pay in
creased taxes has been multiplied by
the favoritism of laws and the con-
Jrol Of industry by the few. while
the narrowing opportunity and in
creased living expenses of the masses
have diminished their ability to uav.
To-day the massive accumulations Of
wealth are able to hide behind law
and escape taxation. while the sub
stance of the great middle class and
the consumer must bear the bur
den.

cial standpoint. and to pay mother

The firs object OF the club is to

Il offers a premium to mothers who
will study the subject Of motherhood

W.i not bring more children into the

Is THE LAW SATISFACTORY.


Baker county irrigator is the
first farmer to give a public express
sion on the Bein irrigation law pro
posed for Oregon.
The Legislature will soon meet.
Eastern oregon members will be at
sea as to the wishes Of the people
on this law. and if the irrigation
measure passed by the legislature
does not suit the Oregon irrigator. he
can blame no one but himself
In the Baker City Herald an an
onymous farmer who should have
signed his able letter, points out The
weak places in the Bein law and ar
gues strongly against it His chief
objections may be classed under
three divisions as follows:
l. The destruction Of all private
water rights and redistribution by
the state
II. The addition OF state offices
and boards costing abou, sIs.ooo
per year
III Endless litigation as a result
of the seizure of private rights by the
state.
The first objection 10 the law is
utterly unfounded. for the reason
that the law does not contemplate
the absolute destruction Of private
rights IL provides that no man shall
hold water in excess Of mis- need:
that every stream shall reclaim the
largest possible area and that entire
sections shall not be KEEP, in disuse
by the greed Of the few.
The state will decide how much
water certain classes of land require
10 keep them at the highest produc-
tive state; just enough water to ac-
eomplish this result will be amor
toned to the land. none viii be al
lowed to waste Under the law no
man can claim what ne can't use
0Sii- N"ytCtiOu as 10 the cost
Of maintaining the engineers and ir-
rigation boards. is debatabIe. II has
been suggested to place the entire
administration Of the law with the
state land board The state land
board is not necessarily a board of
irrigation experts but it could be
made such by provision of the law.
Since irrigation is 10 b.. the CHIEF
Industrial art of the future. the East
oregonian believes the irrigation ma
chinery of the state should b. buiIr
very much greater than the present
needs. so the irrigation system and
code of the state will invite and en- {
courage healthy growth and expan-
sion Of the actual art OF irrigation.
1t is better to build 10 years in ad-
vance Of the present than to be one
minute behind the present.
As the costly litigation To follow
the adoption Of the Bein law. this
will be reduced to minimum il the
law has the hearty sanction Of the
people. who should be desirous of
seeing the idle areas OF the state
reclaimed If the law is made to
conform TO the broadest principles
of Justice and tends to the highest
possible good for the greatest num-
ber. a few healthy DEGREES from the
supreme court will stop litigation.
