Hereto fore, local tnxes havo resulted. In most of the vessols plying out of Oiegon ports being registered from 5nu Ftnnclsco or some other port ul'oro they are listed either undor a lower nBSossmont or nro exempt from high levies. It is a matter that the Mnrshflold Chamber of Commorco took up some tlmo ago when It was first proposed to lmo tho roglBtrntlon of tho C. A. .Smith Company's vessels trnnsfer r 1 fiom.St. Paul to Coos Hnj: ns the l'omo port. Later the C. A. Fmlth Company mado this ohnngjo, but undor tho Federal law had to mitko It Marshfiold luutcnil of Coob liny. However, in order to facllttato tio icglstratlon of other voasola Crom Oioen ports and advortlso to tho world Orogon ns n base for ocean traifle, Sonator Smith hns Intro duced tho following Joint lesolutlou: Ilo it tesolvcd by tho Senntu A the State of Orogon, the Houho of Representatives Jointly concurring: "Thnt Article IX ot tho constitu tion ot tho Stato of Orogon bo nnd tho same Is hereby amended, by adding thereto an additional soctio'i to bo numbered Section 1 (li) uf Article IX, and which shall road as follows: "Section 1 (b). All ship and vcssolr of fifty tons capacity engag ed In either passenger or freight coasting or forolgn trade, whoso homo ports of registration nro In tho stnto of Oregon, Bhnll bo nnd nio Ureby oxomptod from nil taxes of ivory kind whatsoever, excepting fit. t day of January, 103D. "Resolved, thnt tho Secretary of Stnto bo nnd ho is hereby authoris ed nnd directed to set nsldo one pngo In tho official pamphlet con taining inmnuvo ami rcicrciuuim i measures to bo voted upon In tho yenr 101C, In which arguments sup porting this proposed nmendment may bo printed, nnd bo It further "Rosolvod, thnt a commltteo of ono Senator and two Representa tives bo appointed to propnro nnd fllo with tho Secretary of Stnto ar guments In support of this nmend ment." SmltltV View of It.' In a letter concerning tho reso lution, Senator Smith writes: "There nro mnny reasons, why this amendment will result In great benefit to son ports of this stato, and to tho entire Btato as well. Cal ifornia at tho election last Novem ber, Nndopted this amendment. Now York has such a law, and I bollovo the Slate of Washington hns It also. Slnco vessels enn register in other states and pay no taxes except stato taxes, It is very evident thnt they will not reglstor In Oregon under our present system of taxation. "If this nmondment onirics,' It will bo n gain to tho whole Btato for tho reason thnt many vessols will register In tho ports of Oregon ui.l will liny stato taxes whereas under tho prcsont law they will reg Ifctor In other stntos where tho laws aio moro favorable. Many peoplo without giving this much thought nay think this will bo a Iobs in tho way of taxes to tho different communities nnd to tho state, but If you will look into tho situation, you can readily boo that this theory la not correct. Every vessel that roglstors In tho ports ot Oiegon Is an advortlsomcnt for that port. For Instance, a lumber schoonor that sails to tho different ports of tho wcrld and Is registered at Coos Hay advertlsos Coos Ray as n sea port hrrbor wherever such vessel Is soon. , For oxnmplo, "Nnnn Smith of Coos ln lookH much betters than "Nnnn jftptyHAN CMUMNO AM) &aHYi:iNn WORKS HlHtet Market Ave. corner '.VfflBSccond Strcot. jjew mnnngomont Prices nil work satisfactory. work n specialty. 170-J. rJ.' 8.
