SPEAKER WANTS CHANGE IN
TAX LAWS, NOT SINGLE TAX
The Henry George Association held
its second public monthly meeting
Wednesday evening. Mr. H. W.
Stone, of Portland, spoke of the pro
posed change in the tax laws of the
state and showed by actual figures
just how the change would effect the
property owners. Many questions
were asked by the audience and Mr.
Stone showed a mastery of his sub
ject in his replies.
To the query whether or not the
plan of taxation proposed was the
Single Tax, Mr. Stone denied any di
rect connection. The speaker said he
had little faith in the single tax ever
being put in operation in Oregon, but
told the audience that the proposed
law would provide for the raising of
taxes from land values, franchises,
rights of way, etc., and relieve to a
large extent personal property and
improvements. Prof. Schafer stated
that it was unfortunate that the
backers of the measure should call
themselves single taxers, when they
are not proposing that system of tax
ation.
What is proposed is the system
which is being so successfully tried in
Vancouver, R. C.
The next public meeting of the club
will be about Dec. 12 or 13.
Card of Thanks.
The parents of the late Virgil No
land and the members of the Sigma
Nu fraternity wish to express their

their son and brother for the expres
sions of sympathy ana condolence re
ceived in their hours of bereave
ment.

JUDGE GALLOWAY WILL
HEAR THE ARGUMENTS
Puestion Arises—Will Defense or
Prosecution Have to Bear Burden
of Proof?
With the conclusion of the taking
of testimony, the case of referendum
petitions against the University will
rest until December 5.
Judge Galloway, at Salem, will
hear the opening arguments, one of
which will be, whether the University
must prove the fraudulent character
of signatures or whether the state
must prove the genuiness of those at
tacked. Another question to be de
cided, is whether those signatures
will stand which were signed on
sheets not having the petition printed
at their top. This point involves
over 5000 names. A third point is:
Will three or four signatures proven
false, on a sheet, invalidate the affi
davit as to genuineness of all on the
sheet.
Parkinson, on the witness stand
declared that his only motive in cir
culating the petitions at his own ex
pense, to the amount of about $700,
was that he feared being made the
“goat,” if the matter should drop
after the Cottage Grove committee
had given up the matter.
The defense has admitted the lack
of genuineness of 2600 names. Over
5000 other names are questionable be
cause they were signed on blank
pieces of paper, and over 300 were
declared “bad” or “suspected” by the
state’s witnesses. If these 8000
names out of the 13,715 filed are
thrown out, only 5600 would remain,
whereas 6100 names are necessary.
The case for the University is
represented by Regent S. H. Friendly,
as plaintiff, and is being conducted
by M. T. Slater and M. L. Pipes. The
defense is being conducted by Attor
ney-General Crawford and Mr. Mc
Allister.
SOCIAL EVENTS POSTPONED
UNTIL THE HOLIDAYS
Because of the death of Virgil No
land, all social events which were
planned to take piace before the
Thanksgiving holidays have been put
off indefinitely. Several dances and
parties which were scheduled for the
week end have been either cancelled
or postponed.
The future dates which have been
granted by the Students’ Affairs Com
mittee are Friday, December 8, a
dance for the Tri Deltas; Saturday,
December 9, Sophomore dance; and
March 16, 1912, a “County Fair” to be
given by the Y. W. C. A. and the Y.

mencement at Oregon.” It is quaint
and exceedingly interesting.
The new comic section—“Lost,
Strayed, or Stolen,” which was adopt
ed as an experiment, has proved a
good addition to the Monthly. This
department contains a very ungram
atical, sentimental poem, which is
quite clever.
Earl Stannard has contributed an
unusual lib of verse,—an imitation of
Swinburne. This was a difficult un
dertaking, and the results merits spe
cial commendation.
Mr. Raymond wrote a long, com
prehensive essay on Alchemy. This
is included in the engineering depart
ment.
A description of some regions in
Switzerland was well handled by
Miss Helen Meredith. She drew from
her personal observation and exper
ience in writing this article we are
told.
