WILL BUILD A FINE HOME GERMAN SOCIETIES FORM A CEX- TRAL organization. Will Incorporate for 9100,000 Reso lutions of Sympathy Telegraphed to Mrs. McKinley. the Legislature for being unjust to East ern Oregon. The same State Board that has been sued for the $31,000 stolen by a state offi cer appointed by It, In obedience to law, also expended -the 25,000 In obedience to a law which the Supreme Court has held to have been void. Is not the Attorney General negligent in his duty in not suing it for the $25,000 also? X. DOES NOT APPLY TO THE CITY One Opinion as to the Effect of the Mortgage Tax Lavr. "". The suit of J. Thorburn Ross, trustee, to restrain the city from selling the Marquam Grand and other property for mortgage taxes, is based upon the prin ciple that a general state law cannot be made to apply to a city charter unless it is part of the charter, and is referred to in the title of the act w. A. Muniy and Representatives of 14 German societies met In Turn Hall last night to organize the Gorman Central Bund, the purpose of which will be to build a nne home for the German organizations. Before busi ness was taken up an inquiry was made of the condition of President McKinley.

The meeting decided to form an or TiiTortnn which shall be Deutscher Central Verbund. It will be incorpor- j hv sneoial reference and sDecial anpllca tion of the provisions of the mortgage tax to the tax laws of the city. In oth er words, the charter -would have to refer specifically to the mortgage tax law. None of the Portland charters enacted since lSS5,the year the mortgage tax law was passed, has made "any specific refer ence to the mortgage tax law. In fact, the provision for assessment and taxation for the city purposes Is the same now as It was in the charter at tne time tne Central verouna. it i uc jiv.wi. , lt. -was in tne cnuiiei m wc muc ." j n. im tnn onfl -will hllllfl a COStlV I .-nr.-tr.Qrrn o-- Iqto was innrt1 As n o.on- home either on property now owned by ! seqUence. there has been in this respect the separate societies or on una iicie- ( no amendment whatever to tne city cnar. .- n v.o mtrrhnspil.

Either of these pieces would make a suitable site for a large -modern building. The building will have lodgerooms, howling alley, billiard hall and quarters for a German club. In a general way it win be patterned after similar buildings in the East which are the pride of the tvr hv ivhioh th mortence tax law has been made to apply to the City of Portland."

Del Cary Smith, of Spokane, grand worthy president of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, is at the Imperial with his wife. He has just returned from an ex tended trip through the Fastern States In the interest of the order, which he says is spreading everywhere. "We number over 40,000," he said, "although the order is only four years old. Our principles take well with the American people, as the eagle is an American bird and our colors are the Stars and Stripes. Ours Is not an Insurance organization, but al lows sick and death benefits, and our social features render it popular. "It was started in Seattle as a social club, without any Idea of becoming a se cret order, but its growth was so phe nomenal that it soon ranked with older orders in numbers and influence." Mr. Smith visited the Portland lodge last night in his official capacity. - , THE IfEWS IN PORTLAND. Profound Sorrow Over the Attempted Assassination.

It was an occasion where patriotism and humanity rose above partisanship, and (t!t " (H jwlltlcal faiths and all walks of life joined in expressions of pro found sorrow at the attempt to kill the Chief Magistrate, and deep Indignation against his assassin. There was but one subject of conversa tion In all places where men are wont to congregate, in the hotels, the clubs, the business houses, the cigar stands, the sa loons. Everyone discussed the President and joined in condemning the doings of anarchist societies in general, and the policy of the Government that allows the followers of the red -flag domicile within its borders.
