building and maintenance, the coun.
ty commissioners have scarcely any
control over the tax levy required TO
meet expenses, most of which are
regulated by state law. And. by the
way. almost every legislative session
provides for enlarged county expenses.
The last session proved no exception
when it passed a law taking the col
lection of delinquent taxes out of the
hands of the sheriffs and placing that
duty upon the county treasurers.
The sheriffs collected those taxes
for four years at a very slight cost.
owing to the fact that deputy sheritYs
are located in all towns in the coun.
~ who could perform this service ar
a trifing expense. yet under the
changed law. the treasurer must pro-
vide deputies to travel over the coun.
~ for months on the job. Those
who have noted the change are ask
ing. Why? They will find the an.
swer in their tax receipts.

"ReSu1tS-that'Si it"
A PERFECT SABBATH DAY.

The perfect Sunday is thus defined by Judge Alton
B. Parker: "Rest quiet, a little prayer, bit of
sermon deal Of heartfelt worship, hearty tighten
ing of family ties contemplation of mans duty
state and deed or two of kindness" It is safe to
say that of national sins is the dissertation Of
Sunday; is given in great measure to sports,
amusements, gadding around, pleasure making eating,
drinking and making merry, and the indulgence in
doing those things that do not conform to the spirit
and meaning Of the day. and which in the end brings
SORROW disease and death.

Twenty-Year Farm Loans.

A system Of agricultural credits is
about to be installed in the state of
Oregon by an eastern company, which
might be studied with profit by this
state. The company will establish
the system on the basis of a 20-year
loan, the payments annually being so
small as to justify the settler on log
ged-off lands making use Of it to &C.
quire a farm and home.
Under the system to be established,
the farmer will pay fixed rate each
year. q part Of which will be applied
on the interest and a part on the
principal. In this way, the. same
amount being paid each year, the
amount to be applied to the interest
will continually decrease and that ap-
piled to the principal will be contin-
ually increased until. 1t the end of
20 years. the full principal and in
terest has been met.
For example on q loan Of 500 at
Z per cent the farmer will pay $s.46
q year. The first year 81 will be ap-
piled to interest and $2.4s to prin-
cipal leaving $s7.54 of the principal
unpaid in the first year.
In the next year the same amount
will be applied $3.50 to interest and
$2e3 to principal, leaving $s4.s1 on
the principal The next year the in.
terest will be 1854 and the payment
on the principal $3.50. and the resi-
due Of the principal $s2.s1.
Thus through the 20 years the small
payment win continue to handle the
decreasing interest and to be applied
in Increasing sum to the principal
until N The last year the full debt d
cleared. A total Of $lss.5e win have
been paid In 20 years to retire princi-
pal and interest.
. On straight loan at the same rate
$40 in interest alone would have to
be paid. making total in 20 years
Of $40. Under the new credit sys-
tenn the cost to retire the principal
and interest IL $51.44 less.
At . rate Of 8 per cent. which pre-
walls in Washington, there would be
the same saving by the new system
over the amount paid under . straight
loan for = similar period.
The plan of agricultural credit is on
the same basis which 10 common In
Europe and which has proved 20 sue

HAVE YOU SAND IN YOUR CRAW?

There is general feeling that one of the most
serious conditions in this city at this time is the fact
that so many of our merchants have become weary
and faint-hearted, and have lost vim, vinegar and
"pep" in other words they have gone stale and fiat,
thus they are simply marking time" and getting
nowhere.
Of course there are few who stick gamey to
the proposition and advertise and bestir themselves
These rewarded with reasonable return for their
work, but the dead weight of seemingly utter inder-
ence pervading so many of our stores is without a
doubt of the main reasons for the quiet conditions
prevailing.
Last week there appeared shoe advertisement
in this paperit was the first shoe announcement we
have seen in any paper in this city in weeks. Are
there no shoe stores here are the owners afraid
to let people know they have shoes, do they think
that all the people in Aberdeen have discontinued wear
ing shoes We quote this example to show to what an
extent false economy can be carried.
. This same thing can be quoted in great measure
in other lines. For this reason and no other tens of
thousands of dollars worth Of goods are bought from
other cities whose advertisements are read here.

In a political speech delivered in
Seattle last week. former President
W. H. Taft made it perfectly cleal
that to return to the Republican part,
Progressives must come in on all
tours and clad in sackcloth and ashes
They must confess the error of their
ways in 1912 and 1914 and admit tina,
the principles enunciated in their plat
form were erroneous and mischievous
We will welcome them back as
republicans exclaimed Mr.. Taft,
yet they must come back as re-
publicans, not as progressives.
and be ready to support republi-
can candidates and republican
principles. They must remember
that the progressive platform of
1912 was not the republican plat
form"
But in the warmth of their vel
come we should not lose sight Of
what their return might mean. 1t
means that they become republi-
cans again and that they can not
expect to support under the re-
publican party banner any but re-
publican party principles; that
they can not involve the old party
In promotion of those planks Of
the so-called progressive party
adopted in 1912, which never
were and never will be supported
by the national republican party"
Our Progressive friends can scarce
~ be expected to enjoy this notice
from such eminent Republican au.
thority. yet the announcement IL not
without humor. The party which car.
ried but two small states, with eight
votes in the electoral college in 1912.
not only claims the right to draw
the treaty Of peace but insists upon
humbling the triumphant enemy in
the dust.
The policy announced in Seattle by
Professor Taft is not new. The
standpat press has been preaching
this doctrine ever since the elections
Of 1914. Considered solely from the
viewpoint Of party politics. the policy
seems wrong. II the rank and file OF
the Progressive party is to return to
the Republican fold. 1t will not be in
the humble manner desired by the
old gang Of standpatters. They are

party conventions and frame its plat.

principles which led them to bolt in
