The parent-teacher associations are making just as fight for the bill. The voters will decide No- Here are the plain facts, as The Star sees them: ' A large number of school districts in this state are 9 poor that they cannot provide school for their children u the regular school terms. Many other poor districts assessing themselves the sky-high limit to provide ol at all. In contrast with this situation are rich that have very low school levies. then, as a rule the rich districts contain much railroad property and much valuable timber land, but few children of school age. The poor districts have children and very little railroad or timberlands assess, The 80-10 measure would distribute the school cost ore evenly over the state. The rich districts with the ne levies and few children would have to pay more; poor districts with little property and many children d be able to furnish common school educational facili- ies for their boys and girls. ' There is no conclusive evidence that No. 46 will increase kes generally over the state. But there is a certainty t will increase the taxes of some of the big timber own- and the railroad companies in some sections. So, the question is just this: Which comes first, the ber owners and the railroads, or the school children Washington? The Star believes the public school is the most im- tant institution in America. It is the greatest of all the safeguards of the nation. The interests of the rail- z and the timber owners, however important, should be secondary to the public school.
