NEW PUBLICITY LAW -IN
SUPREME COURT
(Special to The Evening Review).
WASHINGTON, March .11. An
nouncement of Postmaster-General
Burleson that be Intends to rigidly
enforce the newspaper publicity law
resulted today ln an action before
the Supreme Court to restrain the
enforcement of the law until that
court has passed on Its validity. At
torney Robert Morris, for the New
York Journal of Commerce, and also
representing the American News
paper Publishers Association, asked
for injunctions against Burleson and
Attorney-General McReynolds. The
court received the papers and briefs
ln the case and reserved Its decision.
Tho law In question provides that
newspapers shall publish semi
annually In their columns a list of
their stockholders and a sworn
statement as to their circulation.

This Is the summary to the Tutted

his testimony declared that If the

council Mondny night by Mayor M
celli. The law places a tax upon
railway Bidetracks ln addition to the
tax on main linos, giving the cities
in which such tracks are located tbe
entire tax. as It did beforo the levy
was made only upon the main line.
Tho Southern Pacific Company's
main lino through the city of Rese
lling Is about one mile in length. On
this the company has annually puld
u tax Into the city, ln addition to
the inuin lino, tbe company has over
six miles of sidetracks on which it
has never been required to pay a cent
of tax. This exemption, however. Is
cunrcllcd by the newly enacted law.
Credit for the conception of the Idea
that led to this law belongs to Mayor
Ml.-, -111. In speaking of the mntter
to the council, he said:
Mayor Tells of Effort.
"About a year ago 'the city re

probable distribution of traffic
Albany.
It la certain, however, that a
railroad will be built. Andrew R.
Porter, one of the purchasers, has
so declared. Aa Porter Brothers are
experienced railroad contractors,
they may build the connection to
Albany.
"Albany is 26 miles northwest of
the edge of the timber. Otber points
on the Southern Pacific are nearer,
but a connection with both the
Southern Pacific and the Oregon
Electric la desired. The road will be
standard guage and probably will be
completed before the end of the
summer.
"The new line will follow the
south fork of the Santiam River,
which bisects the property.
"Two sawmills will be erected,
both on tbe Santiam, probably. The
Santiam has a number of tributaries
which can be utilised In logging op
erations.
"By continuing the proiiosed new
railroad to the east It could be built
to the crest of the Cascades at a
comparatively easy grade. Thus, It
has been pointed out, It could cross
the mountains through Santiam Pass
and reach the Deschutes Valley on
the other side.
"Extension of the Oregon Trunk
southward with San Francisco as Its
eventual goal Is now considered
definite plan of the Hill Interests. It
that la done, a connection with the
Oregon Electric will be desired If
not necessary, as It would be Imprac
ticable to haul traffic, between the
Wllla.nette Valley and California
through Portland.
"Thus the extension of this new
logging road would have a definite,
useful object."
