CONSTITUTION PROVIDES FOR fl LIcanta Taxes In Cities Will Be Wiped Out If Meaaure oBcOmes Law Lawyers In Doubt About ' Home Rule. An Initiative petition for the pas sage of a single tax bill In Clackamaa County waa sent out for circulation on Friday by the Home and Farm Tax Exemption League, through W. 8. U'Ren. The meaaure la recommended by the Oregon Single Tax league, tf whlcb E. S. McAllister, la Prealdent; George M. Orton, Vice-President; H. W. Stone, Treasurer and W. 8. U'Ren, Secretary. Mr. U'Ren said the petition would he circulated In all the counties. If the league won Its fight to have the meaa ure passed on by the counties Instead of the atate at large. Theero la opposi tion to the bome rule plan of having the bill voted upon, and It la probable that the circulation of the petition will result In a teat suit here to determine Its legality. "Some" lawyers are of the opinion that the law does not provide for the circulation of county Inltatlve peti tioned aald Mr. U, Ren. "and that la what we deaire to determine before we begin the work of obtaining namea throughout the state. There la no doubt about the constitution providing for the county petltlona, but some aay there Is a question as to whether the. statutes on the subject are broad enough. The amendment to the con stitution adopted last year gives the counties the right through the' voters to atx or exempt from taxation-any property subject to general laws of the atate. If the bill we are advocat ing becomes a law It will wipe out all license taxes In cities and the taxes must be derived from the value of the land, and the atate corporation li cense tat."

The bill la as follows: "For a local law for the County of Clackamaa to exempt from taxation all trades, labor, profeaslona. business, occupation, personal property and lm provemer.ta on, ' in and under land, and to require that all taxee levied and collected within said Clackamaa Coun ty shall be levied on and collected from the assessed valuea ot land and other natural resources, separate from the aaaessed value of public service corporation franchises and rights of way.
