cured from public service taxes. The
change would be unjust to such coun-
ties as Umatilla. We have to pay for
policing railroads, for educating chill
dren of the trainmen, of electric COM
pany employees and telephone COM
panies; we care for paupers brought
here by the roads and we should
have the right to tax such public SER
vice property as comes within the
county.
Why does Mr.. Shields include No.
SO4 in his program and say people
must adopt that measure to defeat
single tax? Why do the men for
whom Mr.. Shields is working want
No, 3O4 adopted? Why did not Mr..
Shields talk about SO4 while he was
in Pendleton?

Roundup, looked after very close
ly. There should be
an abundance of machines to handle
the crowd; there should be uniform
and reasonable fare and the machines
must be operated in accordance with
an organized system so as to promote
speed.
These remarks are made because
this particular feature of the Round
up was criticised last year and was
open to criticism. There were not
enough machines; there We're many
charges of grating and many auto
owners declare they were jobbed by
the outside men who took control Of
the business.
1t will be a a>splendid thing if this
year the Roundup directors and the
city officials can get together on a
scheme that will mean good, prompt
service for the crowd and will pre-
vent such criticisms as We're made
last year.

After the summer, the Autumn bides,
After the Autumn the Winter glides,
After the Winter, the Spring is then,
After the budding is Summer again
Where is the Summer when Winter
reigns?
Where is the Autumn while Spring
remains
Where is the Life, when the season,
Scatters the form with it's icy
breath?
Deep in the shadows of bye and bye
Waits the immortal and conscious
Some of that consciousness, all ex-
press.
All of that consciousness each may
bless
Why should we weep when the bloom
is gone?
We are but flowers, and passing on
Into the fruiting of conscious Life,
Into that consciousness born of strife

Strain, through an argument in the

is contemplated will work a hardship
on Umatilla county. 1t will take
about $4,000 annually from the
