Exemption r Heasehold Uoodt la De
clared Uaconttltatloual.
Salem, Or., July 24.-(Speclat to the
uregouian.) By holding, in a decision
rendered today, that the householder's
tax exemption is unconstitutional, the
Oregon Supreme Court has declared void
a statute that ha been in force in tbi
state almoat continuously since 1869,
Householders' exemptions have been
allowed every year except 1004, when
Ui exemption law had been repealed,
It waa re-enacted by the special session
of 1903. but went Into effect too late to
be applicable to the assestment of KMX
Approximately $8,000,000 has been
exempted from taxation in this state
from year to year, and legislators, county
officers and the people in general have
recognized the exemption a valid. Now
the Supreme Court ha declared all these
exemption as invalid.
jnisaecision will make it necessary
for County Assessor in many counties to
make a re assessment of proerty in their
counties lor 1000, for it is the practice of
many Assessors not to list property that
is exempt. In some and perhaps mott of
tbe counties the Assessors list the exempt
property and make tbe deductions after
ward.
in uie case in which this decision was
rendered wat a tuit brought In Josephine
County by K. C. and E. Wallace, real
dents of New Hampshire, against the
County Court of Josephine County, to
enjoin the allowauce ol householders'
exemptions, upon tbe allegation that
such exemption imposed upon tbe plain
tiffs and all other non-residents an un,
equal rate of taxation.
The suit was brought by W. C. Hale,
who, at representative from Josephine
County in 11)03, introduced the bill
which repealed tbe exemption clause.
The bill patted without ill real purport
being generally known. At the tpecial
station of the same year the exemption
law wa re-enacted but with the stren
uous opposition of Hale, who contended
that tbe law was unconstitutional. Hale's
position baa now been vindicated by a
decision of tbe Supreme Court.
This case waa decided in tbe Circuit
Court upon a demurrer to tbe complaint,
the demurrer being sustained by Judge
11. K. Hanna. This decitiou is reverted
in an opinion written by Justice F. A.
Moore-
The opinion aays in part:

ation." (.in. Laws or.. (WIJ-ISM), complied
aud tnnotaleJ by it. P. toady, p. 6-J.
The litnUameiiul law, perpetuating the en

the follow Inn cIsumj:
"All laws in lorte lu the Territory of Oregon

erty of a houat-holdrr to the amount of SJU) re-
malued unaltered on the ttatute booki from'thc
dttcofiti enactment, January Si, lsoi. to the
present lime, except durlnir the Interim of lit
repeal and rv-cnactmciit in lnut, tnd at tuch
tct hat been universally conceded by auessora,
tax collectors tnd itale anil eotiuly officers lo
be valid, the clause ol the constitution relating
In the uniformity ol assessment Slid taxallou
has thereby aoi'ilred ittuh a contemporaneous
and practical construction as ought not now to
render Ihe tct ill iiucatton subject to bo declared
Invalid by the count,
Legislative luteriwrtitlon of a constitution,
si evidenced by the enactment of lawt which
for many yetrt have been cheerfully acquieacod
In by the people aftecied thereby, a fiords po
tent retson for itiitalnliig the validity of inch
ittlutoi. 8uch legislative construction Is valid
unless tho act evidencing the interpretation
contlieti wllh the orgaulo law, In which case
the prior provisions of the constitution become
the paramount rule.
In the abteitce ol any conallttittcnal Inhiui-
lion, the right to make reasoutlda exoinintona
from taxation rests with the legislature. here,
however, there la a doubt in a statute attempt
ing to remit the public burden that all property
shook! bear, the uncertainly will be resolved
In faror of the state tnd againat th exemption.
It will be remembered that Section 1 of Ar
ticle IX ol our couaUtullou limits the power of
the leglilatlve assembly to exempt property
from taxation to tlikt to be used for municipal,
literary, educational, tclentlllc. rellgtout or
oharlttble purtwsos. It it argued by defendaut'a
counsel Hint the exempttou of prowrtr Irom
ttxatiou, ts evidenced by the tct under cousld"
erttlon, It a remission by tho legislative assem
bly of a part of the public burden Icr charitable
purpose!, and therefore within the limits of tho
power conferred. The exemption It evidently a
valuable donation, but II la certainly not made
for a charitable purpose.
We believe that the clause ol the constitution
prohibits the legislature from granting to the
householders of th ittte the exemption from
taxation of tho property attempted by the atat-
uto, which, though in force when the organic
law took effect, was Inconsistent therewith and
hence repealed by the adoption of tho constitu
tion, tnd Its attempted rceusctmeut is void ni
ri)pugnant thereto, an the ground that the rate
of assessment and taxation la not uniform or
equal as between houienolders of tbe Hate aud
noureildenti.
