and drafting a suitable tax law, sub
ject to ratification at the hands of the
electors of the state at the next regu
lar election to be held a year hence.
It is the contention of the com
mittee that in adopting the so-called
tax amendment at the last election,
the power of adopting tax legislation
has been taken from the legislature
and placed in the hands of the voters.
Having knowledge of the necessities
of better tax laws the committee
deems it wise and exiedient to draft
a suitable law and submit the same
to a popular vote of the qualified
electors of the state at the next election.

Representative George Xeuner.
of
Roseburg, who will attend the meet
ing also hi tends to make a number
of suggestions, which If adopted, will
assist the taxpayers materially. Mr.
Neuner believes that the time of col
lecting taxes should be changed from
March 1 to September 1. and that the
- rebate should be abolished. He also
is of the opinion that the task of
collecting the taxes should he vested
In the county treasurer, and not in
the sheriff as is the present custom.
Mr. Neuner will also request that
the $300 exemption on personal
property be restored, and that tax
payers be excused from paying taxes
on their home when no revenue is
realized.
Resolution By Xeuner.
The resolution calling a meeting
of the above committee was compiled
by Representative George Xeuner and
was adopted at the lust spssion of the
state legislature.
It reads as follows:
"Be it resolved by the house of
representatives and the senate. Joint
ly concurring:
"That a committee of seven from
the house and rive from the senate
be appointed to act in conjunction
with the board of tax commissioners
in the preparation of any measure or
measures relating to taxation or ex
einption, which said committee and
board of state tax commissioners, act
ing jointly, may deem it proper to
submit to the people for their ap
proval or rejection at theregular
election of 1912.

Columbia beach and Astoria, now ap-
lears practically certain.
After two days more of unreward

Miles returned to Oregon City last;

Charles Hldy, captain of Company G,
if this city, of which Miles was a
member, and four members of the

The party made thorough search
f the country adjacent to the camp
rounds, but could find only one
race. A woman, at whose house
Miles stopped for a drink Monday

vas going to Oregon City as he left
oward the Lewis and Clark river.
She told him he could not get
hrough that way, owing to the
iwamps and tall grass and ferns, but
'ie went on. suylng that he guessed
ie could make It.
It is the belief of Mr. Miles that
its son became lost and perished In
he swamp. The party succeeded In
racking him for some distance, but
wing to the thickets, finally lost the
rail. No trace could be found on
he Lewis and CJnrV ;iver, which the
xarchcrs followed for several miles.
