walk It would have to be rebuilt."
Horace Marsters. who was pres
ent at( the meeting iu (behalf of
the members of tae Methodist
church, then asked permission to
speak briefly, and such courtesy was
extended by the mayor.
He spoke in substance as follows:
"The members of the Methodist
church are In your hands, gentlemen,
but nevertheless we hope and ex
pect that we will be treated fairly
aud impartially iu this matter. You
are suppsed to be a progressive set
of people, (referring to the council
men) but I am inclined to believe
that you can see the faults of the
church more readily than those of
the city. At the time we were in
structed !to build a cement walk
abutting our property on Main street,
we deemed it expedient and wise
to complete the work of building
sidewalks for all time, and conse
quently we decided to also build a
similar walk on Lane street. We
had sufficient funds at the time, and
consequently we went ahead and the
work was comleted at a great ex
pense. Now, I think It is unfair for
you, as members of the city council,
to compel! us to discard a practi
cally new sidewalk and build a new
one at an expense which we can
ill afford.
"We were assured by the city en
gineer, or a committee, at the time
the walk was constructed, that in the
event it wasn't right, the city would
make it right. 1 am not positive,
but it seems to mo that a committee
appointed by the council informed us
at the time that tlfti grade was cor
rect." Councilman Josephson then spoke
as follows:
"I have been a member of this
council for about three years, and
during that time I have made It a
point to keep well In touch with
what has been going on. , 1 have
uo recollection, whatever, of any
committee being appointed to moet
the church people, and I am positive
that I was never a member of such
body In the event It existed.
"I was present, however, nt the
time of a conversation between the
pastor of the church and the street,
committee, nnd remember distinct
ly that we offered to modify the
grade in the event construction was
delayed for a few clays."
Councilman Micelti, chairman of
the street committee, then charged
Mr. Marsters of being unfair tu his
argument, and Intimated that he
( .Marsters) bad attempted to mis
lead the assembly In attempting to
make it appear that he (Micelli) was
endeavoring to work a hardship upon
the church, and at the Bame time
neglecting other equally as dnm ag
ing defects. "We begged them not
to build their walk on the so-called
grade at the time," Bald Micelli, "and
offered to modify It In the event they
delayed work."
Mr. Marsters then replied to Ml
celli in stating thnt he did not wish
to be unfair, but on the contrary i
had attended the meet'u as a rep-,
presentt.t.v of the Met cuMm church
in hope of receiving Jis treatment
and a fair deal. Of course." said
Mr. Marsters. "If the shoe fits, put
it on, I don't care."
Contractor K. F. Patterson, who
was Pin ployed to build the walk,
was then called upon lo enlighten the
assembly. Mr. Patterson could not
remenmer what transpired at. the
time t ho wnlk was built further than
the alteeed fact that the rrade was
given him by some person purport
ing to he the city engineer.
Mr. Marsters then asked permis
sion o speak briefly and smh re
quest was granted.
He paid that he believed the city
engineer tendered the church com
mittee an agreement in writ ing at
the time the walk was constructed,
the same being to the effect that in
the event the grade was defective the
elty would rebuild it without cost lo
the original builders. Mr. Marsters
said that ho thought that .1. M.
liooth was present at the t ime tli-
I agreement was tendered and t
such gentleman would bear him out
In his statement,
i Realizing the necessity of delv
ing definite artfon on the ni'rt of
the commit tee. Councilman I !o'K k.
' advanced a motion to the effect ti'-tt
the report lie r'ferr"d to the city
; attorney for th purpose of invtl
j gating the record in hope of fic.-r-!
talning whether or not the cttv I
! under any obligation to the churdi
j people, or nt least, to drrrnine
m-hether there In any record to phow
i that the alleged written aereentent
had been tendered the members of
the church as contended.
According to Councilman 1fourk
motion, it would seern that he con
sidered It expedient to ascertain
whether the rity engineer, who Ik
lbt;d to have Kfven the grade was
acting In an advisory or authoratlve
capacity.
Councilman Micelli declarpd that
he was only too glad in delay ac
tion on the report and was of the
opinion that the investigation would
reveal facta to substantiate the con
tentions of the committee.
TAX LAW KXPKltl.MKXT.
Kramer of Measure Say Will Xot
Ite Effective Until 1012.
PORTLAND, Nov. 22. Probably
intended as the entering wedge for
the application of the land tax theo
ry of raising revenues for the sup
port of municipal, state and county
governments, the amendment to Ar
ticle XI of the Oregon constitution,
known as Section la, will not be
come effective until 1912. It is too
late for the Orange, the Oregon State
Federation of Labor and the Port
land Labor Council to enact Initia
tive legislation changing the present
method of taxation. Members of the
People's Power League, who aided
in drawing the amendment, yester
day conceded that counties cannot
place the amendment in effect until
taxation laws shall be adopted under
the Initiative by the people of each
county in 1911, and to beconio ef
fective In 1912.
Ben Selling, Colonel C. 43. S.
Wood, W. S. U'Uen. Will Daly, IT. J.
Parklson and other friends of the
amendment, characterize It as an ex
periment and hope to demonstrate
its practicability In Multnomah
county. Other counties may drop
Into lino along the same lines of
demonstration if the voters aeo lit.
but it Is the plan of the promoters
or the "management of your own
pocketbook idea" to experiment In. a
few counties until tho plan is work
ed out.
The new amendment deprives the
legislature of making a law which
shall declare what property may be
assessed - in the state. Thnt power
is now vested In the people of each
county. Tho legislature may cause
the stale to certify tho number of
mills which shall be levied for the
support of the state government, but
at that point its control ceases.
County cvmmlHH loners may decide
how much mvenuo Is needed to run
the county foi which they are act
Ing, but they must collect the sum
In such manner as may bo devised
by the voters of a county. Briefly
the new amendment repeals the noil
or head tax, on citizens. No scheme
regulating taxation or exemptions
Mirougnoiu tne stato can become a
law until atmroved by the people.
Tho restrictions of the constitution
are removed as to prohibiting a
county from collecting taxes In any
manner it may see fit. It removes
from the supreme court tho right
to say that the people, have not the
right to tax or to exempt any class of
property.
The new tax law Is said to have
been originated by the Stato Orange,
and after the tdett was whipped Into
shape at a meeting of the represen
tative members of the People's Pow
er League it was adopted by tabor
organizations.
"It is prohablo that tho amend
ment will result In a land tax, and
an effort to make land monopolists
bear the large burden of expense of
government," said an advocate and
sponsor for the bill yestmday. "I
had little to do with rramlng the
amendment, but, knowing the temper
of those who were behind it, I be
lieve that to be true.
"Friends of the amendment hone
that In the months which will Inter-j
vene before the peoplo of M u It no
ma Ii county are called upon to voto 1
on an Initiative bill changing the .
method of taxation, they may become
familiar with the idea that only a;
redistribution nr tho burden is In-1
tended. We hope that owners of ma-;
cilnery and surface improvements
may come to understand that thev
are h";irliig an unjust proporilon or
the cont. of government, and that
Ihey wfll aid Iu trying the change In
the lingeM assessable enmity In the
statu."
