TAXATION AND PROSPERITY.

Not many understand the relation
of taxation and prosperity. Everybody
should know about it. Wherever a
liberal policy has been adopted by the
local assessors, great prosperity has
resulted, as, for example, in Schenec-
tady, in New York, which has grown
in population from 1855 in 1850 to
$1,000 in 1910 and in assessed valua-
ton from $3,S93, $40 to s4S,45S,325,
has multiplied its population 500 per
cent and it's assessed valuation 400
per cent in 80 years. Schenectady in
1905 had upwards of 400 manufacture
ing plants. with a total output Of over
$33. 900. 900 of produce These state
ments are a part Of resolutions adopt
ed by the New York board of trade
and transportation, preliminary to an
official call for a state convention to
consider the advisability of amending
the state law for the taxation of man
ufactoring corporations, so that their
taxation upon capital and surplus
outside OF real estate and special fran
chise will be uniform throughout the
state. and viii protect them from IN
equitable taxation upon their machln-
erv and tools and all investments en-
ploved in manufacturing as Is done in
Pennsylvania Maryland, several other
states and the Dominion of Canada

THEY ARE REPRESENTED.

An argument used by the secession
element in the east end is that they
are not represented properly at this
time. Let US see what the facts are
ia this regard. Commissioner Lee is
from that country. So is Assessor
strain. So is County Superintendent
Welles. County Clerk Sailing is from
Weston, which is included in "Orch-
ard" county but against the will Of
the Weston people. County Treasurer
Bradley is from Athena and so is
Sheriff Taylor. OF the remaining
salaried county officers Pendleton
has one. Recorder Hendley. Judge
Giuuand is from Stewart creek, south
Of Pendleton, and Commissioner Wal
ker claims the west end as his home.
Where is there any truth in the
charge that the east end country is
subjected TO taxation without repre-
sentation?" Pendleton is more en-
titled to make such a complaint than
is the east end country.

THEY SHOULD WAIT.

The main trouble with the would I
b. county divisionists is that they are
ahead Of the times. For business rea-
sons the people Of Milton want that
town TO become a county seat and they
are not willing to wait until conditions
are ripe for the creation Of a county
IN the east end.
II there is to be an east end county !
it should be made up Of the country
north Of Dry creek. comprising the
Milton -Freewater and the Hudson
Bay regions. In the course of time
that country will doubtless be suffici-
entity settled and developed to justify
being made into a separate county.
AT this time it is not.
This fact is clearly realized by the
divisionists. But instead Of waiting
for nature to take its course they are
trying to force the game by attempt
ing to steal big slice of territory
that has no business in an east end
county and does not want to be in
such a county. Under the boundaries
Of "Orchard" county the bulk Of the
territory proposed for that county
would be included against its will.
This is an unfair and high handed
proceeding. It should not be tolerat-
ed for a moment.
At this time there is no sound JUS
tificaion for the move to create
county In the east end. Umatilla
county is serving that section we'll
Taxes are not high and the county is
entirely free from debt. The county
has been giving thousands Of dollars

been spending thousands Of dollars

the roads Of that section. The East
end has more men in office than has
any other section Of the county. There
is nothing 10 the complaint that the
people Of that country are not repre-
sented at present. There is nothing to
the plea that the present arrangement

\ STUDENT COMPANY.

The plan to fill the ranks of COM
pany L with students of the high
school and Of the Pendleton academy
should prove popular. There are
many schools and academies that
maintain regular cadet military or
ganizations. These organizations are
expensive to students and they do not
furnish the valuable training given by
the national guard. If the students
will enlist in company L in sufficient
numbers they can make that company
the crack guard company # Oregon
and at the same time they will secure
training that they should have and Sc
cure it without cost.

THE SCHOOL is NEEDED.

In the April issue Of the oregon

argues in favor Of maintaining the

gon normal he said:
THE school at Weston also draws
from ten large counties and has no
other school ef it's nature in that part
OF the state. II should be maintained.

Alfalfa is almost ready for cutting
in the Hermiston country and it is
estimated that the crop this year will
pay good interest on from 5000 to
S4OO per acre. And alfalfa is con-
sidered as a rather poor paying crop
too. The people upon the Umatilla
project expect to make their real
profits from fruit raising.
