The newly created Board of Equaliia tion now in session at the State Capitol, should, and doubtless will, pay discn mioating attention to the manifest dis creoanries existing in the valuations placed by ths assessors upon the proper ty different enemies. As we unoer stand it, the State tax most be levied npon the basis of property valuations, and it is manifestly unjust that the peo ple of any county should . be made to Buffer because the rouutv assessor has respected bis oath and has assessed property, as plainly required by the law. at its full cash value. That many as sessors bave not done this is very plain and probably ni more glaring instance of undervaluation .can be found than that of Clatsop Connty, which is as sessed at S,7S2,420. while Columbia CountT. with probably one half of fue wealth of Clatsop, figures at .15,514,488. A glance at a few cf the items that make up these totals is all that is neces sary to show their manifest disproportion, Clatsop County has 478,997 acres of non-tillable lands, assessed at $3,879,' 441. Colombia Conntv has 406,134 acres of non-tillable lands, assessed at 18,910, 835. The value of improvements on deeded or patented lands in Clatsop County is assessed at f 160,500. The valne of improvements op deeded or patented lands in Columbia County is assessed at $424,243. The valne of steamboats, sailboats, stationary engines and manufacturing machinery in Clatsop County is assessed at 1109,900. The same classification in Columbia Connty is assessed at $571,210. The value of merchandise and sto k in trade in Clatsop is placed at (326,- 762. ' - The same classification in Columbia is placed at $198,520. Of money, notes and accounts the as sessor of Clatsop County could find only $133,500, while the assessor of Columbia Connty found $419,198. Certainly not a very good showing for a county contain ing a city claiming to have over 15,000 inhabitants and boasting of it business and manufactures. The value of household furniture, watches, jeweliy, etc., it placed by Clat sop' assessor at only $08,900, while Columbia's aesesssor was able to find similar property worth $103,229. We are willing to predict that Clatsop County' salaried booster will never in corporate tbee figures in any of the city or county's advertising pamp!ets. And yet we are informed that Clatsop's assessor testified under oath before the State Board that these figures represent ed the true cash value ol the property. Of course this was'not true. Columbia was one of the few counties in Oregon where the assessor respected his catli of office and assessed at full cash value. We believe this is nnderstood by the State Beard and that they will act ac cordingly, equalizing up to the hue cash value and thereby doing justice, instead of equalizing down and thereby paying a premium on perjury and malfeasance in office. If, however, the oppo:ite conrse is pursued, the only proper thing is for Columbia County to refuse to pay its Ktate taxes and thereby compel the State to bring the matter before an equi ty ourt. A LITTLE ADVICE. It will be good policy for the saloon men of St. Helens to conduct their butine, as nearly as possible, in confonnit) with public opinion, even if in doing so they keep well within the limits of the law, for public opinion nowadays can toon crystallize into law and tha liquor deal era will be the losers thereby. It Is a matter of common knowledge that women were permitted to carouse in one of the saloons and it is very plaiu that liquor is beings?! J to men to whom It should not be sold, and in some in stances wherj the wivea have forbidden its sale. The money is needed by the womorrand children and the man needs hi braln'to transact Ills business and his health to do his work. But this does not appeal to all saloon men. They have paid their liceme money and so long a the law is not Invoked against them they care nothing for tha injury they Inflict npon tha com ni unity or tbj los and mffisrin entailed npon the drunkard'a wife and children. Acouineleut business man and loving husband ma be converted Into a bestial nonentity or a dangeroua brut, but the taloon keeper justifies himaelf with the plea that he paye hi license and that if he did not furniah the liquor on demand someone else would And there iome truth n this, though It 1 by no mean a justification. Competition In business Is one of the greatest incentive io unr- repuiable methods. Millionaire, in or der to add to their wealth, are willing to txiison the food supply and it took the strong band of the govern oient to effect even a partial reform. Theie I no use of appealing to any motive except mat of self Interest, therefore we tell the Mo uor dealer that it will pay them to get together and conduct their business so that it will da as little narm n pos sible. It is bad enough at best Admiral Sperry declare that the eruis of the big fleet ha been tucwa ful from every point of view. It is the greatest moving picture show old Nep tune bat ever witnessed. SB. 51CKERS0VS LETTER la Which He Set l Mea Straw and Hen Ik Idem O'er. Vernonia, Or., Feb. 8, '09 Editor or tiu Mist: In vour issue of Jan. 15 you boast somewhat of being in harmony with the policies that are for the beet interests ot ha, mainritv of th IWODle. NOW SS 1 have my doubts as to your sincerity iu this respect, I wish to take exceptions to a statement made by you in the same issue, which follows: "The statement that the assessor's expenses should come out of his salary is not apt to be indorsed by intelligent taxpayers and reflects no credit on r.ilnn,bi.i Conntv's representative. Its injustice is so manifest that no argu ment is necessary." I presume that you imply, of course, to all exoenses of the assessor's office not including books, stationery and stamps. Sow I claim to" be a taxpayer of or dinary intelligence and I have a right to that claim ai I have lived in the Neha lem Valley for 20 years and have made a success at my occupation. Now. I. for one. positively object to Sec. 4 of the assessor's liw for Columbia Cjunty. First. Eecause it is directly in con flict with our constitutional rights, which provide for "equal rights to all and spe cial privileges to none." Second. Because it makes the salary of the assessor, as described in Section 1 and 2 of said law, excessive. In conjunction with Section 3 it en dows him with power to hire all the work of his office dooe by deputies while he mav live at leisure and it fur ther compels the county court to pay out the people's money for work for which the salary of 2,000 is amply suf ficient. Why? Beciuse we are living under a competitive system and there are plenty of good men who will do the work of either the assessor or sheriff for the alary prescribed in Section 1 and 2. As in the case of Mr. A. S. Harrison when nominated by the Republicans and was honorable enough to denounce the faulty construction of Section 4 and the wav It was unsciupulouslv lobbied through a thoughtless legislature. And then be was stabbed in the back by a political combination that exists in the neighborhood of our county seat. Don't thtnk for a minute, Mr. Editor, that no argument is necessary, for there is a strong sentiment throughout Co lumbia County against this sort of pro cedure and it is my impression that the people aa a whole are becoming very tired of being hood in Wed by the very men that we have placed the most con dencein. You say "there bas been nocomplaint that the assessor bas been guilty of grafting." Now I do not claim that any county officer is grafting, only indirectly through an unscrupulous law. which am sure, if left to the people, would be cast out. Excnse nie, but tell me why the sime legislature did not enact a similar law pertaining to the county clerk s office As any well informed person knows.that office has three times the work of any other oflbe in the county and reeeives the least pay. Alluding to section 4 as being excessive and unjut, I wish to il lustrate the work of the assessor's office by myown rccupation. Being a farmer I aim to run my tirin on a practical basis. My wife, two chil dren and myself work hard the year around in all kinds of weather, pay our own expense and consider we do well if we make five hundred dollars. And, by the wav, we consider that we have just as blue blood in our veins as any county official and are willing to give them all a good salary, suliicient for an up-to date maintenance with no side grafts in cluded, and I certainly believe (here are plenty of good men in the county that will acre it the office of assessor for the regular salary as prescribed by law in Sec. 1 and 2. and w ill voluntarily place upon the rolls all property prescribed by law without the persistent action of the grand jury. You may consider this a complaint in as far as it goes, let it hit who it will let them defend themselves, 1 wish to call your atteniion to the fact that we are not living in Russia, and we do not propose the Grand Duke shall have their way about everything. And you, my dear editor, may live to see the dny when "Old Ireland will have her liberty." And the interest that is being ex press by our present Representative iu the repeal of tin's unjust measure cer tainly adds much credit to him s a true representative of the people. Now all I will ask of you ia to give me room in the columns of your paper and I will endeavor to demonstrate to whom it may concern that there it alwavt two sides to a que tron. Submitting till for publication I am Yervftapeclfully 'e. E. MCKER80N. Ut To Mr. Nickerson and all others con cerned : Your first paragraph conveys an insult which ordinarily should de prive vou of any right to apace In thi paper. Nevertheless 1 propose to an swer you and try to convince you that you are wrong-. The editor personally cares nothing whatever for Mr. Nioker oii opinion. It would be easy to get a list of a hundred of the heaviest laxyay- ers in thi county who do not believe a tingle county Ulcer receives a cent more salary than he U Justly entitled to, but such a list would have no eAect on Mr. Nickerson or bis Ilk, for the Bible says, "The tool is wise in ins own con ceit." As to the third section ol the law the editor ol ti e Mist said it was faulty and should be amended, therefore the dis cussion is as to the font 111 section only. which provide that all casta? ex pect s of the assessor and his deputy shall be paid by the county. The statemeut made by Mr. Nicker son in the second count of hi letter that the assessor receives $2000 i untrue The salary is f 1200 and the offioe deputy receives M00 per annum. Thi Is not change by Mr. Convert' bill. The county court, under the present law, Is required to pay only the neces sary expenses. If iu its Judgment the assessor's expense account or any item of it Is excessive it can refuse payment and the assessor would have to relin quish his claim or bring su t in the clr cuit court. Mr. Conyers' bill will not alter this nor save the county one cent, It will not, in other words, accomplish the injustice it attempts, Excuse me, Mr. Nickerson, but as you wish to know why the Legislature did not post a law providing for payment of the c!erk' expenses, will yon please ex plain why Representative Cooyers did not introduce a bill repealing the much stronger provision for the payment of expeiiMS of the sheriff' office, whose salary is J-00 per annum higher than that of the assessor. It your blue blood will permit it, stand np on your hind legs and tell the ignorant editor how you explain this except upon the theory of spitework or favoritism Rend that section of tbe sheriff's law and then ex plain. Your statement Hut the county clerk's office receives less pav than any other ottice in the county is certainly news to the clerk, and illuitMte the careless manner in which you handle statistics. The clerk' salary is $1400 per annum and he has oae office deputy and additional help wiien he considers it necessary for the proper discharge ot his duties. We hope yuo have no blue blood in your veins for blue blood i diseased blood and you really don't need it. Still, we will take word that yonr blood is as blue as indigo and as impure as your thoughts are uncharitable. Now, aa to the clerk's office: There is no dispute as to the ability and efficiency of tbe present clerk. But, if yon will remember, the county court refused at one lime to give Mr. Harris ths he'p he thought ueces:try to prepare the tax roil 'I In ltw nude no specific provi sion for such expense, so Mr. Harris comp'ied with ths law, and, after due warning to the county court that the roll would null ready for the sheriff nnle s help was granted, did his regu lar stunt of eight hours er day and let the court do the worrying. Kttilt:the court Mil rendered to the clerk, but the unnecessary delay caused by its clili nacy cost Columbia County several hun dred dollars. I suppose yoa remember that Mr. Harris was re-elected by a very large nuij jrity last Jui.e, which may fairly be taken as an indorsement by the people of his official coarse. As to Mr. lljrrism being beaten ty the St. Helen ring, the .Mi it submits a few figures for your careful considera tion, if yon ever do any considering: Tbe vote iu June gave Clark a plurality of 108 over Harrison, while the Republican candidate forCongrett bad a plurality of about 800, therefore Mr. Harriion ran 900 behind the straight Republican vote throughout the county. The fact is, and Mr. IlarrifOii admit it, he wat beaten because the voters of the county believed him to be the candidate of the timber Speculators. Clatskanie precinct, wliich which gsve him a inalorily at the pri mary gave a majority of thirty for Clark at the gener.il electior. St. Hi-Ienp, in June lust, diil not have one third of the population of Union precinct. Iu fact the time has long pasted when a St. I lei ent ring could dictate the pol tics of Co lumbia C'ountt . fterolt at Cold Sfecl "Your only hope," said three dm-tor to Mrs. SI. K.
