INSULTING THE FARMER.

One Of the rawest claims Of the
court house gang is that 1.-THE new
bridge at Orofino did not cost the farm
ers one penny" Pat Blake says 1--WE
made the timber companies pay for it,
forlwe increased their taxes more than
the amount Of the bridge" Which
proves nothing Of the nature Of the
statement made by Patrick or any
other Safeguarding booze fighter.
Suppose the taxes Of the timber COM
panies were increased s25, 600 in 1918.
What has that to do with the cost Of a
bridge? Do the additional taxes belong
to the gang? No, all taxes belong to
the people, at least theoretically. land
whether 1t be bridge or a road or a
court house the farmer pays his pro-
portion Of the cost, doesn't he? II the
farmers pay thirty per cent. Of the taxes
Of Clearwater county, then the FARM.
ers paid thirty dollars out Of every slOO
and 500 out Of every 1900 expended
On the Clearwater bridge, didn't they?
And regardless Of who paid for the
bridge It gives nobody an excuse for
grating to the extent Of one cent,
does It? Even II the timber companies
did pay increased taxes it does not ex-
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1914-03-13

I. R. Grow admits that he did 90 to
Spokane and try to put one over on
the cement company; that he tried to
sell the company five shares Of Tribune
stock, worth about thirty cents on the
dollar, perhaps, for $500 Of good mon
ey, and that he couldn't work the
company. Which shows that after all
the officers Of the cement company are
not as big suckers as were a bunch Of
Orofino farmers who bit at the bait.
We believe there is something like SO
shares in this Tribune corporation, at
500 per share, or IS, 900, but when you
look up the records and see how this
business was assessed there is an
awful shrinkage. It isn't worth any
thing like 5000. Only worth q, 600
when Mr.. Grow and the gang 60 out
after suckers, some OF whom have felt
like thirty cents ever since they got
wise to the deal. And because the
cement company would not come
across when the Tribune wanted to get
its NIT into the company funds, the
Tribune has discovered that the cement
company is crooked and incompetent.
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1914-03-13

Last year the Orofino cement COM
pany expended right here in this town
not less than $20, 900. And this is but
a drop in the bucket, for the develop
ment Of the proposed plant calls for an
investment Of approximately $3.50, 600
here in Orofino. It is one Of the big in
dustrial proposition now under devel-
opment on the Pacific coast, the COM
pletion Of which will put Orofino on
the map in big black letters. And the
good thing about it is that Nature has
piled up here one OF the largest and
purest and most easily handled cement
deposits in the United States. There
can be no question about this.
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1914-03-13

The Republican was not mistaken
about the assessment Of timber, as will
be seen when the facts are finally pub
lished. The purported facts, published
recently In the Tribune in an article
signed "Odd Fellow" are misleading,
for green and burned over holdings
are not segregated, making an entirely
different showing than the truth will
reveal. The Republican has quoted
County Commissioner Harrison as say
ing that on green standing timber, land
and all, the Potlatch was last year. as
sessed at "a while Holland 4 Rupp
holdings were assessed at more than
go and the N. p. railroad company at
about the same. Burnt over timber
was assessed at 1910 an acre, and
should not be mixed with good timber.
The Republican challenged ex-Assessor
Molloy to publish q list Of burned over
holdings Of the Potlatch company as
sessed at "a per acre, and he has not
had the courage to come out in the
open and publish the list. Why, II
County Commissioner Harrison is mis-
taken, not come out and show it?
There is no use lodging the issue. II
Mr.. Molloy is correct the records will
show it, and the people are entitled to
the truth.
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1914-03-13

The greatest need OF our farmers to-
day is larger home markets. We have
billions Of feet Of the finest timber in
the world but no saw mill Of conse-
quence. We have thousands Of un-
used horse power in our streams that
is going to waste when it ought to be
harnessed and used to drive the wheels
Of score Of large factories where la
Dor would find employment, and
our producers ON the farms a home
demand for all that our fertile soil can
produce. Isn't it time to wake up and
encourage capital to come here and
help us? One good saw mill would be
Of more value to the farmers than all
the calamity howlers that ever polluted
the air around Orofino. Instead Of
trying to drive capital out Of the county
let the people encourage it by the as
surance Of fair treatment.
