DELHI, India, Dec. 12. Before
thousands ot their subjects, w-ite,
brown and black. King George V and
Queen Mary were today proclaimed
Emperor and Empress ot India, The
ceremonial was the crowning glory of
the Durbar, and, It is asserted, sur
passed all spectacles of modern times.
In two amphitheatres erected on the
the beautiful plain of Delhi the cere
monies by which citizens of British
India hailed their rulers were enacted
in one before high white and Indian
officials, Princes and prominent per
sons and in the larger one before a
multitude of the people.
A holiday had been declarea
throughout the land and thousands
upon thousands had flocked to the
city to witness the coronation.
The day was perfect for the magni
ficent pageantry and not an untoward
incident married India's greatest fete.
Royal robes and gems splashed and
glittered in the sunlight as the no
bility and soldiery of the royal pro
cession made their way from the
Duqbar camp to the great temporary
auditoriums, where the actual acclam
ation of the Emperor and his consort
took place.
' Following the ceremonies the King
Emperor made it known that he would
give a large sum of money for popu
lar education, with other gifts to fol
low. The Viceroy announced tnat His
Majesty was so charmed with Delhi
that he contemplated the removal of
the Indian capital here from Calcutta.
Calcutta has been the capital of In
dia since 1773. It is estimated that
the removal of the capital would cost
$25,000,000.

SINCLE TAX MEN CALLED UNFAIR
(Continued from page 1)
WOW
The
Time
acres of land located In Clackamas
county, and out of that 640 acres a
twelve-acre tract was sold and Im
proved, and after the improvement
the twelve acres are now assessed for
more than the remaining 628 acres.
The County Assessor informs me that
such is not the case and that while
some land is assessed low on account
of its rocky condition being wholly
unfit for cultivation or even pasture,
the comparisons which I have men
tioned are untrue.
"I listened a short time ago to a
EC- speech made by a single tax advocate
in Clackamas county, wherein he
stated that be had found two tracts
of land similarly situated, each con
taining 100 acres; one held by a resi
dent who was Improving the same and
the taxes on that tract of land was
more than ICQ, and the other tract
of land equally as level and the fertil
ity of the soil equally as good, but
held by a speculator, and the latter
tract of land was only taxed for $16.
"I wish to state that the assertion
is a false and misleading and no assess
ment of that kind appear upon the
assessment roll of Clackamas county.
There are tracts of land, however,
upon our bills that are fertile and
have been improved that are
assessed under the law of 1907, at
their true cash value, and lying along
the side of that tract is another tract
dipping over into a rocky precipitous
canyon wmch is also assessed at lti
true cash value, but the value Is very
small on account of the worthless
condition of the land.
"Those condition of affairs exist In
every county, and no Intelligent man
will use those comparisons as an ar
gument unless he wishes to practice
deceit
"I wish to call your attention to a
conversation that I had yesterday in
ortland with one of the strongest
advocates of single" tax In the state
and he informed me that the munici
pal tax and the special tax raised in
school districts located in a city, af
ter the single tax law was put Into
operation hy exempting Improvements
and personal property would cause
the special levies In those towns to be
a little more than double their present
rate and therefore It would strike
the real property owner very heavily
unless some means could be devised
to raise a large part of the special
taxes In the city from licenses and
other Internal revenue, as they do at
the Dresent time In . Vancouver

PORTLAND, Dec. 13. (Special.)
That fads lobbied through the Ore
gon Legislature which cost the tax
payer.? large sums of money and ben
efit only a few men are the cause of
the heavy tax levies and the reason
there Is not more money left for the
building of good roads in the state, Is
the belief of Grant B. Dlmick, Mayor
elect of Oregon City. He said so at
today at the annual convention of Ore
gon County Judges and Commission
ers at the Commercial Club.
Judge Dimlck mentioned the Jeffer
son fish hatchery, abandoned, he said,
after being built, the appropriation of
$00,000 for reseedlng burned forests,
the $50,000 appropriation for the As
toria centennial, state moneys spent
for other county fairs, and new boards
and commissions created In such num
bers, said Judge Dimlck, that It Is
necessary to build a new statehouse to
find offices for them. "The best way
to get public highways is to condemn
about half of these high-salaried
boards," he rti;rhred. This statement
was greeted t,y applause from the
members of the convention
Judge Dlmick also dealt a blow at
the single tax, declaring that It will
place such a heavy burden on the
homesteader and small farmer that he
will be unalile to meet It, while the
manufacturers will go free of taxa
tion. He took Issue with a statement
made by H. W. Stone at a recent
sinuie-tax debate In the First Congre
gatlonal church, In which Mr. 8tone
i8-d the illustration of a 640-acre
farm owned by a lumber comoany.
He also deplored the promiscuous
use of the Initiative, and the careless
signing of measures by citizens to got
them on the ballot He pointed out
that even to put them on the ballot
means added expense. The trouble
with some voters, he said. Is that they
read the catchy headlines of a meas
ure, and then vote for it, thinking
they understand It, without taking the
pains to read the text Every voter,
he said, ought to familiarize himself
thoroughly with the text of a measure,
and to know Its effect upon the state,
before voting for It. Judge Dlmick
was as much opposed to the bill pro
viding for the elimination of perso
al property to the amount of $3,000 as
he was to the single tax.
As to bonding the county or state
to raise money tor roads, the Judge
pointed out the Interest that must
be met, and said that, although the
roads are built and millions expended,
as soon as a new railroad line goes
In It changes the location of the roads
that are used the most, as ail farmers
are anxious to haul to the nearest
shipping point.
As to county fairs1, he said:
"I don't believe In these appropria
tions by the state at large to benefit
local or Individual enterprise. -
"If the taxpayers would throttle
every ftshwheel In the state and leave
the fishing to the glllnetters they
would save the state a heavy expense
and permit the propagation of the
fish to go on naturally.
"The teacher supervisors created by
the Legislature last year, we have no
more use for than I have for another
pocket, but they coHt us $4,000."
