FEBRUARY p
Washington's Birthday
BY GEORGE FITCH.
Author Of AT Good Old Siwash.7

V7HIS is the birthday of George
Washington, who tried to die us
years ago. but only succeeded in
removing himself from Mount Vernon
into the hearts of the American people.
Much stress has been laid on Wash
ingtOn's greatness and genius during
his public career Yet nothing which
he did redounded to his glory so much
as his partial death. By this one act
Washington made himself perpetual
national hero. No one accuses him Of
having died purpOsely or even willing
~ for his own glory. Yet the most
crushing blow which Washington ever
dealt to his critics was by dying and
compelling them to shut their Shiny
mouths forever.
No man has ever succeeded in becOm-
ing great during his life. A man may
be a patriot a statesman, and warm
hearted, brave fighter for others He
may save his country from destruction
and make it prosperous and great But
there will always, during his life, be
plenty of eloquent critics to rise ac-
cusingly and call attention to the fact
that he talks too much, he is vain and
proud, he is insincere, he is serving his
own interests, he is a big bluff, he loves
the spotlight, he cOnsorts with thieves
and crooks on the steenth of December
IL years ago he drank two cocktails
and that he is, when all his shOrtcOm-
ings are added up, curse to clvIliza-
ton.
During. WashingtOn's administration
thousands Of Americans sat up nights
thinking out new adjectives with which
to describe his infamy. He was the
worst abused man in America He was
denounced almost as scathingly as was
Abraham Lincoln by the men Whe
leaned up against his reputation later,
and said with trembling voices. We
stand on the policies of that great mar
tyr" CursinE Washington was a great
fad in the last 10 years of tine 18th CEN
fury, and would have continued far into

the 18th century If he had not given his
critics a mortal blow by departing at
the comparatively early age Of 67.
From the moment of his death Wash
ington received the united support OF
all his countrymen, and achieved the
glory to which he was richly entitled.
This should teach US two things-first,
that national greatness is payable like
life insurance generally after death;
second. that we should not enter too

County Agriculturalist
May Not Be Retained

A committee consisting Of d. W.
Eyre, Chauncey Bishop, W. S. Low, Ivan
G.. McDaniels and W. NJ. Hamilton
called on the county court yesterday,
asking that 5000 be placed in the
budget for the coming year towards the
maintainance of the office Of county
agriculturist, with l.. j. Chaplin in
charge. Should the county court give
this much towards keeping up this Of.
flee, the Commercial Club would agree
tot give 5000. With these amounts as.
sured, it was felt that money could be
raised from other sources that would
guarantee the continuance Of this Of.
flee, and that the work already under
headway, would be carried out.
Fearing that there might be obiec.
tions to putting in this amount in the
budget, the court took no action, but
finally consented TO take the matter un.
der advisement.
Owing to the funds for this office
being exhausted, work has been stopped
by the Oregon Agricultural college, un.

done. Unless 1000 can be raised bv

of which will be general rounding up

.Confers With Governor
Phoenix, Oct. CHARLES H. Meyer,
president of the Western Federation of
Miners, conferred with Governor Hunt
here today on the subject Of the Cliff
ton strike. Enroute here from Clifton,
Meyer had a narrow escape from being
mObbed by non-union workers who had
been driven out of Morenci. The refu-
gees boarded Meyers train at Guthrie,
twelve miles south of Clifton, rushed in
to his car and backed him into a
corner, threatening bodily injury. Con
ductor Mike Reardon ran to Meyer 8
assistance and succeeded in pursuading
the miners to let him 60.
Meyer said today that the strikers
ask only justice and living wage. He
added that outside representatives of
the federation would leave Clifton if
they would restore peace there and
bring about better conditions. This
meets the chief requirements of the
operators, who refuse to arbitrate as
long as outsiders participate in the
conferences.

PROPERTY VALUES
HALF MILLION LESS

Assessor West Completes
segregation Of Property
In Road Districts

Although the complete valuation OF
Marion county, upon which the taxes
for next year will be collected, will not
be available until the corporation valu-
ations are made up in December, the
indications are that the property valu-
alton for this coming year will fall
about half million dollars short Of last
year. When it is considered that sew
eral large estates were settled up and
the valuation removed from the cOun-
ty and also the brewery went out OF
business the property valuations wall be
estimated at about the same as last
year.
The total county valuation this year
exclusive of the corporation properties
is $37 ,233, 1856 and adding to this the
corporation value for last year, S5,563,
800 makes the estimated total for
1915 as $42,797, ,715. In 1914 the prop.
erty valuation of the county totaled
$43, ,450,035 which is 1862, 1920 more than
for 1915. The city Of Salem totals
81 / ,963,3S4 for this year exclusive of
the corporation taxes which is $500,265
less than last year when it was $l2,-
463,649.
the taxes this year have been passed
upon by the county board Of equaliza-
ton and have also been estimated up
on a close basis of property valuation.
The declines in real estate have brought
numerous complaints before the board,
some of which were found to be just
and others unreasonable but all were
adjusted in satisfactory manner by
the board.
