Opportunity Of sunraaIst.

Baroness Aletta Korff tells in one
Of the magazines how the women OF
Finland came to vote. The fact Is
that women had to show that they
could meet an emergency before the
vote came to them. They have not
had many opportunities to take the
initiative in the worlds history and
they have not always responded when
the opportunity came, but when a
crisis, such as that In 1904, when the
strike and the revolutionary outbreak
in Russia took place at the same time.
occurred, they proved they could
make peace by doing it. Not until
England and the United States find
the women helping them to bear some
great trouble will they give them the
right to vote.

sEssIoN-sTATE AND SCHOOL
TAX HIGH.

The county court adjourned Thurs
day evening after an unuusally long
and busy session.
The city limi-s of Joseph. Wallowa
and Enterprise were made the bound
aries Of those road districts. The
matter of the appointment of road
supervisor for Enterprise district was
laid over.
The WaIowa Chieftain was again
named as the county official paper
The tax levy for 1910 was fixed
at 1875 mills, apportioned as follows:
State, 21 mills.
County. 6.l mills
County school. % mills.
County roads, l5 mills.
County high schools, 6 mills.
Big State Tax.
The big state and school tax are
the principal, in fact only reasons
the total levy this year is not way
below last years. The state taN
apportioned to Warlowa county this
year is 17,4S4.sO, or almost twice
as much as it ever was before. The
highest state tax heretofore paid by
Wallowa county was $1O,327.50, the
amount that had to be sent 20 Sa

purposes.
And at that the assessed valua

The only explanation for the in
