10 THE MORNING OKGfONIAN, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1905. VOTERS TO DECIDE Three Issues to Go Before Electors in June. SRIDGE TAX LEVY IS ONE Annexation of Section of Land West of Mt. Tabor and Strip Between Portland and St. Johns Will Also Be Settled. Electors of Portland in the June city election -will decide -whether to authorize the Council" to levy a special annual tax of 2 mills for bridges costing- $15,000 or more, and whether to annex two areas now outside the municipal limits one, a section of land west of Mount Tabor; the other, a strip of land lying between the present boundaries of Portland and St. Johns, the Willamette River and the Co lumbia. The section west of Mount Tabor is number 6 and lies south of the Base Une road. Its eastern line is about -550 feet above "West Avenue and its western line about 600 feet east of Pretty man ave nue. The southern line for almost Its enT tire length parallels Section Line road nearly 200 feet south of that highway. The area is one mile square, contains people to the number of almost 2500 and property to the assessed valuation last year of perhaps $1,000,000. The other area proposed for annexation averages one-half mile wide and is one mile long, containing 100 persons and property asssessed at about $150,000. Annexation of each, in order to carry, must be approved by a majority of the electors voting: on the question, not only in Portland, but also in the two areas. The section west of Mount Tabor is not to be added to Portland School District. Special Tax for Bridges. The special 2-mIll tax, if sanctioned by the people, will be levied by the Council to pay not only for bridges which may hereafter be built, but also for bridges which were built in 1904 under the dis trict asssessment plan and one in South Portland not yet finished. Assessments have not yet been levied for those via ducts. They are the Willamette Heights Bridge and the First-street and Front street bridges In South Portland. The Multnomah delegation In the leg islature had a fight over combination of future bridges with those of 1901 on the ballot. The members at one time agreed to separate them so that electors could vote to pay for future bridges out of the 2-mlll tax and for the 1904 bridges by the old plan; at least such is the tes timony of such members as Mills. Linthi- cum, Killingsworth, Malarkcy and Sichel. but others contend that the delegation agreed to yoke the two questions Into one and thus present them to the people for them to vote on "yes" or "no." The bill was introduced by Representa tive Colwell, and when it passed the House not all the legislators from Mult nomah knew of the combination. In the Senate the bill was held up by Malarkey, who Insisted that the delegation had never agreed to pass the measure with the two questions hooked up together, thus depriving electors of the privilege of voting one way on levying the 2-mlll tax lor future bridges and another way on paying' for last year's bridges out of that tax. The bill went through, however, as amended, but left antagonisms which have not yet been erased. Would Tax Whole City. The bill authorizes the Council to levy a 2-miH tax in addition to other taxes allowed by the charter on the whole city, thus abolishing the district assessment system. The revenue from the tax is to accrue to the "special bridge fund." The act says: "Bald special bridge fund shall be used only for the purpose of paying for the construction of bridges in said city else where than across the Willamette River, the estimated cost of which by said city shall not be less than $15,000 each, and also for the purpose of paying for any bridge or bridges not across the Willam ette River which were constructed in and by said city during the year 1904 or which are now under course of construction under contract with said city and which have not been paid for prior to January 1. 1905; provided, that this provision shall not be construed so as to include elevated roadways, tramways, or any structures other than bridges across gulches and ra vines. The said City of Portland shall postpone all proceedings toward the as sessment, levy or collection of special as sessments on property within the several districts described as being benefited by bridges constructed during the year 1904 or which are under course of construc tion as above described until June 15. 1905. and if this act is approved as hereinafter provided (by vote of the electors of the city) said proceedings shall- be perma nently discontinued and said bridges shall be aid for out of the 'special bridge , yd' herein provided for. " "The said City of Portland is hereby further authorized, until said special tax shall be collected, to pay out of the gen eral fund of said city, or after said special tax has been collected, to pay out of said special bridge fund, Interest at the legal rate upon all money due upon contracts for the construction of said bridges built by said city during the year 1904, or which are now under course of construc tion, under contract with said city. Said amounts due shall bear interest from and after the approval and acceptance of said bridges and until paid." The act further provides that street railway companies which have received franchises over any bridges built under the special district plan shall pay their "full share of the cost of construction." SONS HEED THE NATAL DAY Revolutionary Society Hears Ad dresses by Mayor and Others. The anniversary or Washington's birthday, which occurred yesterday, was a notable event in the history of the Oregon Society of Sons of the American" Revolution. Using' the afternoon for an annual business meeting- and an election of of ficers and the evening- for an open meet ing and smoker, the society fully util ized the day for the remembrance of their revered leader. At the afternoon meeting- General Thomas M. Anderson was elected to the presidency of the society. An attempt was made to have the retiring- presi dent, Mayor Williams, succeed himself, and it was only on the repeated pro tests of the Mayor that the society con sented to allow him to withdraw. The other officers elected were Wallace Mc Camant. vice-president: Harrison G. Piatt, secretary; Herbert B. Augur, treasurer; W. H. Chapin, registrar. The board of managers appointed for the ensuing year consists of Mayor George H. Williams, Tyler Woodward, B. B. Beekman and Thomas G. Greene. lu the evening the society held an informal smoker. The new president, General Anderson, occupied the chair, -and Introduced the first speaker, James F. Ewlng. Mr. Ewing chose -as his topic "Diverse Opinions of Washington," and If You Want a Good Piano at a Little Price Call Today Don't forget to drop into our store and see about a Club Piano. Remem ber they are the same reliable, stand ard makes sold by us at all imes, only the price to club members is practically wholesale. Eilers Piano House 351 Washington St. Corner Park presented an able and scholarly paper. Mr. Ewing displayed that rare faculty of giving the keynote to his subject in his opening statement. lt is extreme ly difficult," he said, "to say anything new or original about the man whose birthday we are celebrating tonight. We are well acquainted with George Washington, with his career and with his character. However, it is not nec essary that we find something entirely new or unknown up to this time about him, but it is altogether fitting that year after year we should review that well-known career and recount his well-known excellencies." The address which followed consisted almost wholly of the views and opin ions of Washington as expressed by his contemporaries, both friends and en emies, and by historians. The address showed much research and was well delivered. Harrison G. Piatt followed with a paper on "The Influence of Connecticut In the Critical Period of American His tory." Mr. Piatt's paper treated his subject and the American Revolution generally and presented the results of much study. . ' President Thomas M. Anderson refer red to the fact that the retiring presi dent had much to do during the re construction period of American his tory, and in this way he called upon Mayor Williams for a short talk. Mayor Williams told in a brief way just what part he took In history as a Govern ment official. Following the speakers light re freshments, including cigars, were served. SHOW SCHOOLS AT THE PAIR Unique Educational Exhibits in Prep aration by Suburban Schools. Several of the suburban school districts have laid plans for preparing special ex hibits for the educational display at the Lewis and Clark Fair. Professor W. A. Law, of the South Mdunt Tabor School, expects to show the construction of the Bull Run pipe line from Portland to the headworks, with appropriate pictures, as part of the display from that school. The school is located near the Lower Mount Tabor reservoir, and the pupils are fa miliar with pipe line. Many pictures have been taken by amateur photog raphers of scenes along the line. These pictures are what Professor Law and the school want to get, and any information leading to their discovery will be thank fully received, and will reach Professor Law if addressed to him at Lents. R. F. D. At the St Johns School, the big woolen mills, the sawmills, the veneer and basket plants will be described and Illus trated. Mount Tabor District No. 5 is at work, and the Montavilla School has made a start. This latter school will prepare product maps. Mrs. Edith Tozler-Weatherred Is heln- ing out the schools. She lectured on the St. Louis Fair in the Montavilla Odd fellows Hall a few nights ago, and the school there received a considerable por tion of the proceeds. The directors of this district have informed PrinclDal N W. Bowland that they would make an appropriation to meet the expenses of getting pictures and meeting any other expenses incident to the preparation of tne exmoit. But not all the districts can do this, and the principal and teach ers are left to their own resources to get money ior expenses. airs, weatherred is giving her lectures to assist schools in meeting the exponses in preparing the ex hibits.
