14 THE MOKT(x OKUGUMAN, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER '43, . 1907. RESISTANCE WILL FOLLOW INCREASE Not All of Portland's Public Service Corporations Ac cept Assessment. RAILROADS TO CONTEST Streetcar Company. Likely to Ac quiesce and United Railways De clares Such Intention Tele phone Magnates In Doubt. Though some of Portland's' public service corporations will submit to the Increased assessment that has been made of their franchises for the use of the cltyls streets, others will pro test against trie action of County As sessor Slgler In adding to franchise valuations and will resist vigorously the attempt to exact a larger tax. Principal among the corporations that will probably submit to the increased assessment is the Portland Railway Company, which is now merged with the Portland General Electric Com pany and the Oregon Water Power & Hallway Company under the name of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company. The assessable value of this company's franchise was Increased from $750,000 to $1,175,000 and that of the Portland Goneral Electric Com pany from $250,000 to $380,000. The franchise of the Oregon Water Power fc Railway Company is assessed the tame as last year, at $50,000. Neither will the United Railways demur to its franchise assessment of $11,500. But vigorous opposition Is ex pected from the Harriman Interests, which have been more heavily assessed than ever before. It is also understood that the telephone and telegraph com panies will not accept the heavier as sessments without a contest. Will Pay Its 'share. "We will not oppose the assessment that ha been made on our franchise," said Herman Wittenberg, one of the principal stockholders In the United Railways, yesterday. "Our company does not propose to undertake to do business in a city and at the same time fight the taxation of the grant by which we are enabled to carry on that business. If it is to be the policy of the County Assessor to assess all street franchises, we are willing to pay our Bhare." W. W. Cotton, chief counsel, and J. W. Morrow, land and tax agent. for the Harriman interests in the Northwest, were both out of the city yesterday and it could not be learned what sjteps. If any, will be taken by this corporation to defeat the Increased assessment of its holdings. Besides a slight increase in the assessment of the franchise of the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company and the doubling of the Southern Pacific franchise, which is now assessed for $50,000, the franchise of the North Pacific Terminal Com pany, of which the Harriman lines are the principal owners, has been in creased from $35,000 to $75,000. These substantial Increases will no dobut be considered by Mr. Harriman's lieuten ants in Oregon as opposed to the recent Instructions that were issued by the Union Pacific magnate directing re trenchment along all lines. Josselyn Will Not Talk. B. S. Josselyn, president of the Port land Railway, Light & Power Com pany, declined to discuss the assess ment that has been made against that company's franchises. Owing to the absence from the city of J. H. Thatcher, division manager for the Pacific States Telegraph & Tele phone Company, It could not be ascer tained whether or not this corporation will take any steps to resist the assess ment of its franchise. However, its franchise is this year listed at the same valuation as last year, $250,000. Taxes have been paid on all street franchise assessments that were made last year except by the Postal Tele graph Company, which was assessed for $15,000. This company's franchise has been listed at the same valuation this year. John Annand, local man ager for the company, says he received Instructions from the head officials of the company last year not to pay the taxes on the assessment of the fran chise, and It Is expected this company will assume the same attitude this year. Refusal of corporations to pay taxes on their franchises does not exempt the holders of these grants from lia bility. In this county franchises are considered as real estate and can be sold at Sheriff's sale for dellnquet taxes in the same manner as realty. It Is for this reason that corporations are expected seriously to consider the situ ation and' to devote their energies to ward defeating, or at least keeping at a minimum, the assessment on this part - of their assets, rather than to undertake to evade the payment of the tax after it has been levied.

A diver was sent down today to examine the steamer Fair Oaks, which struck a snag and lost a propeller blade. It Is believed that repairs can be made and the steamer proceed on her voyage. . The steamer A. F. Coates is on the marine railway for repairs to her keel, the vessel having grounded In the har bor. Upon the arrival of the schooner Charles R. Wilson, Captain Tudgett re ported the loss of a man overboard, Daniel Johnson, a sailor, committing suicide, presumably while Intoxicated. Charmer Runs Down Fishing Boat. VANCOUVER, B. C, Oct. 22. That the steamer Charmer, a few minutes prior to the collision with the Tartar In the fog. Thursday night, ran into and sank a fishing-boat containing Donald Gunn and Alec MacAulay, fishing for herring off Point Grey, is now pretty certain. Pas sengers on the Charmer reported striking a small boat, but little credence was placed in their story. Now J. Innes says the two men named were fishing for her ring' and have been missing since Thurs day night. Both were expert herring fishermen from Scotland, and came here with a party six months ago. Marine Xotes. The schooner Alvena has arrived up at westport for a lumber cargo. The steamship Breakwater, from Coos Bay points, arrived up last night.

That the Southern Pacific Is doing all it can to keep the United Railways out of the North Pacific Terminal Company's yards Is the charge made by Herman Wittenberg, an official of the former company. With a franchise allowing It to lay tracks on Front treet from the southern limits of Portland to Glisan street, on the north, and a connection with the transcon tinental roada centering there, the United Railways finds itself compelled to fight for the right to connect its tracks with those of the terminal company. A request made to the terminal man agement to allow rails to be laid into the yard has been refused, and a law suit is promised. Before the courts are resorted to, however, the matter will be taken up in the Council. Mr. Wittenberg will probably bring the question up at today's session. "We will probably have the people with us on this fight," said Mr. Wit tenberg, "for opposition to our tracks entering the terminal Is credited to the Southern Pacific and other Har riman Interests. The Southern Pacific Is always eager to do all It can in blocking the entrance of other railways and Its attitude In this matter does not astonish anyone who knows the policy of the road." The United Railways will be ready to operate Its Front-street line upon the arrival of the electric locomotive from the Eastern manufacturers. This will arrive some time In November. Just now construction crews are busy on the road out to Twenty-sixth street, near the city boundary, to the north west of the city, where a connection will be made with the Interurban line to Hillsboro. ' It Is probable that the construction of the Seventh-street passenger line which is a part of the United Railways project, will be delayed until next Spring. It is thought Inadvisable to tear up the street at this season of the year, for construction work will Interfere with the heavy traffic on that street during the wet season more than at any other time. Delays are likely to. occur during the Winter in construction, and it Is believed the work can be accomplished with far LOGGERS HAVE BARBAROUS SPORT WITH WELL-DRESSED STRANGER Tenderfoot Is Forced to Buy Fourteen Rounds of Drinks and His Watch Taken From Him When His Money Runs Out. HAVING fun with an effete tender foot Is a form of amusement be longing to a past decade, so eight frontier loggers yesterday learned to their sorrow. Seven of them were run out of town and the eighth was hefd on a felony charge. They did not shoot once at the feet of the dude as was the accustomed practice of early days. They merely made, him buy several rounds of drinks and every time he protested they twisted his arm until he cried for mercy. The hazing was done In a North End saloon. The eight loggers, Bert Glllls, H. Dinklee, Walter Ryan, Peter Maher, Ed Sullivan, Tom Kennan, Ben Garltz and W. P. Hlbbard were squandering their Summer's earnings when W. A. Demester, sleek, pale and well dressed came into the place for a solitary drink. The newcomer at once excited the in terest of the logging fraternity. They gaCnered about him, felt of the material from which his clothes were made and commented freely on his appearance until he became aggravated and tossed a glass Run Down If your doctor says take A yer's Sar saparilla, then take it.

A quantity of the rails has been dis posed of to the Oregon Electric Rail way for use In connecting Its Salem line with the United Railways' Front street line at the south end of the city. Colonist Business Lighter. Colonists continue to pour into Port land, taking advantage of the cheap one way rates the railroads offer until No vember 1. Figures complied by the gen eral passenger offices of the Harriman lines centering here show that during the week ending October 15, 1024 colonists took advantage of the rates to reach Oregon over the Harriman lines. All come from the East and Middle West. For the same week last year, the total number was 822, showing a gain for the second week of October this year of 202. Of this number 315 came to Port land, 17 went to Pendleton, 12 went to Elgin and 19 landed at Baker City. The week s showing is the lightest of the month so far, but it Is thought that it shows a lull before the rush of the final weeks. St. Paul Officials Coming. F. A. Miller, general passenger agent for the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, with offices at Chicago: W. B. Dixon, assistant- general passenger agent at St. Paul, and H. E. Pierpont, general freight agent for the St. Paul at Chicago, will reach Portland tonight In a private car and will spend several days' here looking over this territory. These officials are doubtless coming here to estimate, in a general way, the tonnage the St. Paul can secure In this territory, should v the road build to Portland. H. S. Rowe, gen eral agent at Portland, Is In the party, having gone to Puget Sound to meet the officials. Vancouver Barracks Xotes. VANCOUVER BARRACKS, Wash.. Oct. 22. (Special.)

Then they seized him and held a council of war. It was decided that he should buy 14 rounds of beer for the crowd. When Demester objected to this-they twisted his arm until he bought drink after drink. When hlB money was gone they took his watch to pay for the balance due. W. P. Hlbbard is the one alleged to have performed this act. By the time Demester had paid his obligations to the loggers he found him self dizzy and unsteady from drink. He went at once, however, to the police station and reported the matter. The loggers were arrested on charges of dis orderly conduct, excepting Hlbbard, who was held on a robbery charge. Demester, the hapless victim of the wild crowd, was locked up In a cold sobering-up cell. When the case was tried In the Muni cipal Court yesterday the seven loggers accused of tormenting the tenderfoot, as they called him, were given --an hour in which to start back for lumber camps in Washington, from whence they came.

First of all, I find that the very serious and so-called "in curable" cases are due usually to NEG LECT and DELAY. Again, I'know that many men suffer FOR YEARS and prac tically RUIN THEIR HEALTH FOR EVER trying to dose themselves with some patent nostrum that never could cure. And' further, it is evident that many men will run to what they call "cheap" treatment. NO TREATMENT AT ALL is what "cheap" treatment means in nine cases out or ten. The last state "of the man is worse than the first. Just before you go a . line further in this announcement, stop and ask yourself as to whether YOU are fol lowing in the foolish footsteps of the man who NEGLECTS himself f.
