U. P. GOES TO
 NEW HIGH FIGURE

New York. Sept. 7-Opening-First prices Of stocks. tody, were generally lower. Speculation was 1ang1id and the downward movement, which was only of slight extent was apparently due more to indifference of traders Steel and the copper shares were heavy and Reading, which opened unchanged sold off on the first few transactions The only movement of importance was in Union Pacific, in which speculative interest again centered. Opening un- on steady buying, climbing l 3-8 to 161 7-S, new high figure for the present movement. The advance in this mar ket leader imparted better tone to the remainder of the list which at the end of the first half hour ruled frac- tionalIy above the opening. Ameri- can Woolen stocks were traded in the common rose a point and the pre- ferred lost as much. Republic Steel and Canadian Pacific lost a point.
 Closing.-The market closed irregu- lar. Stocks held their ground fairly we'll, today, although the main move nent was downward at the opening. The initial dip in prices gave shorts an opportunity to even up on their contracts over the weekend and coV- ering was the main feature in the re- covery, which proceeded until the mar ket was back on a par with yester- days close. The backwardness of Steel apparently was more influential than the buoyancy of Union Pacific and Reading and the rise was hesi> tating and slow. Just before the close the list shaded off again. Peoples Gas developed renewed strength and activity and gained two points Bonds were steady.

Where the Tribune chiefly errs,
however, is in preaching the one
bald theft and spoilation Of distant
property for the benefit Of favor
ed localities and people under
color and cover of law. Surely it
cannot really mean what it says
when it asks an exaction equiva-
lent to the forced contributions Of
the Mexican revolutionists. The

take pride in their independence
and do not endorse a policy Of

FARMERS MISREPRESENTED.


The always-smouldering scrap
between the Orofino Republican
and the tribune called forth an ed
itorial in the latter which shows
an obliquity of view that would
be considered dishonesty if it
were not so frequent. The Re-
publican had approved the ten
per cent reduction in both farm
and timber lands an the Tribune
scolded at it on the ground that
the farmers could we'll afford to
pay little more because they got
all the benefit from the tenfold
greater sum paid by the timbered
regions Of the county.
It asks who needs the roads,
the farmers or the timber owners?
rs there a farmer in the county
who would not willingly pay his
little share Of 1929 Con the ten
per cent reduction) providing the
timber companies ,paid $1,567.6
toward the building of better
roads in the county. And again
1T (the reduction in school taxes
on farm property amounts to the
magnificent sum of $196.53 and
the amount reduced on timber in
the county for this purpose is
$2,5O8.16".
The amount involved is not
large, but the Tribune's implica-
ton that the property of the rich
yet sparsely settled timbered sec
tons of Clearwater county is a
mere cow to be MIXED for the
benefit Of one small section is
positively dishonest. Further
more, in the long run it does not
even pay. The making Of roads
and bridges, sewers, sidewalks
and pavements is essentially a
charge upon persons or property
benefited and in proportion to
benefit, it is a strictly local public
work and is always and every
where so recognized. A general
county road tax is just only when
It is spent SO as to benefit the
property which pays it by the
sum paid. To hold otherwise
would likewise justify the taxing
of, for example, a farm at Dent
for the paving of a street in Orc
fino or the making of a sidewalk
in Elk River. Each settlement
has its own needs and prefer
ences as to the number and char
acter Of its roads and it may have
exactly what it desires if it is able
and willing to pay. The theory
that that farmers or others should
be authorized to charge work for
their personal benefit up to far
distant taxpayers who are help
less is an authorization of theft.
The policy of paying all school
expense from a general county
levy is slightly different because
education is in America held as
something almost sacred and
worth any sacrifice. Even this
idea is carried to an extreme in
Clearwater county. The sensi-
BILE plan would be to levy a mod
crate general tax of IL to 2 1-2
mills, land leave the deficit to be
made up by the districts. each for
itself as it may desire. 1t is ad-
mitted that parents must feed,
clothe and educate their children,
but the country has got into the
habit of helping in the latter in
order to increase the efficiency of
its citizenship. There is no rea-
son, however, why people should
not consider difficulty and ex-
pense in education as we'll as
other things when they select
their homes.
