What was the cause of this unusual interest in the nottri n.'itionof candidates who, if elected, will constitute tie county board of equalization? Tlie figures show and we are reliably informed bjr a prom incut Republican, that very many of the voters at 'the pri mary in Clatskanie voted only for the judge, clerk and as sessor the three officers who constitute the county board of equalization. Let the voters consider carefully what this means. Clatskanie precinct is the place where the men from the Benson lumber camp voted, and there is no doubt thetr voted. with very few exceptions, exactly as they were led to believe their employers desired them to vote. Many of them were transient laborers, not paying taxes nor haviug any permanent interest in Columbia County, They cared nothing whether the burded of taxation wI placed upon the farmers and business men who have helped to improve our country or whether those who are exploitmf its resources for personal gain only were winners by ( re sult. The men whom they helped to defeat had stood for 9404! taxation of all property, including that of the timber 14 millionaires and the railroad corporations. 1 These iuterests desired to punish those who had the aeT to stand for the people, and, so far as the primaries art aaV cerned, they have succeeded. The Mist does not assert that the successful candidate far nominations will, if elected, betray the people; but it dow assert and there is no contradicting the fact that they recoil ed the support of the men who are to-day invoking the aid oi the courts to enable them to shirk the payment of their just share of the public burden. This is not a personal fight. It is merely a juetio whether the '"iuterests" or the people are to control hefW in Columbia County, and. regardless of the result of thajsa election the battle will be continued until people of all parties thoroughly understand the issue and vote accordingly. The following timber owners ate endeavoring to erada final payment of their taxes and have appealed to the circuit court. Benson L. & L. Co. Jeunings-McRae Co. (.). K. Logging Co. Chapman Timber Co. Western Timber Co. John West. "Detroit Trust Co. Blodgett & Co. These are the "interests" referred to. The Benson Company has for its vice president E. "S. Con vert, of the law firm of Coovert & Stapleton, of Portlamd, aad one of the members of this firm visited Columbia Couaty fc fore the primaries and fixed things for the candidate favored by the "iuterests." i 4 Por Count v Assessor - .a, , II If: i.M I I I. t .In Hinl lot ui (rli-inl '!l'.!i-.','j !,.,t U 1 1.1. iiii lil-"'IlitniHul- lo w IimiukI,.-ii.nl '"'Il l.v Ii,,r I'tii-erfm iniin l"'h''n .,i.
