6 THE IIORXIXG OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1906. - CITIES CI El Counties aiTd Other Judicial and Municipal Districts Need Enabling Act. - U'REN GIVES HIS OPINION Intention of Amendments Was lo , JL.cave Regulation of Cities as JFrce us Possible From Interference by the Legislature. OREGON CITY, Or., Oct. 22. (Special.) An enabling art by the Legislature is not considered necessary to make effect ive the constitutional amendment adopted last June giving cities and towns power to initiate local laws; but such an act is necessary and should be passed by the Legislature to enable counties and other judicial and municipal districts to exer cise power over local and special legisla tion. This is the opinion of W. & U'Ren, of this city, who was a member of the committee by which the final revision of these amendments was made. In discuss ing the subject today, Mr. U'Ren said: The amendments to th constitution adopt ed I apt June, referring to rfty charters and further reserving tho initiative and referen dum powers of the people to the lepal vot ers of every municipality and district as to all local, npocial and municipal Jppislation. should be construed together. The word "municipal" was used In its technical sense. Including countlen as well as cities. Reading them, together, lawyera generally agree that they are self-operative. Hon. W. t Bristol, Seneca Smith, Hon. Thomas N. Greene, and J. C. Veassie formed the committee which made the linal revis ion of these amend ments. I was present at some. of the "meet i tigs,' though not all, and I slathered from the discussion that It was the intention to leave- the people of cities as nearly as posslMo wholly free from In terference by the Legislature in their purely local city legislation, except as it might af fect the criminal laws of the state. This npplted to the manner of exercising the in itiative and referendum, and was intended to he covered by the sentence, the manner of exerclsl ng said powers shall be prescribed by general laws, except that cities and towns may provide Tor the manner of exercising the Initiative and referendum powers as tf their municipal legislation." The time within which referendum peti tions must be filed after the passage of an ordinance, in w hich ' Initiative petitions must bo filed before a city election, the calling of a special election for city measures as well h the percentage of" signatures required, as I understand the committee, were consid ered to be governed by the phrase, "man ner -of exercising the initiative and referen dum pown s," and the only limitation In tended to be placed on the city- was the per centage of signatures that could he required, ' not more than li per cent for the initiative nnr more than 10 -per cent for the referen dum on city ordinances, charters and amend ments. This seems to be the general understand ing by the lawyers at Astoria, Baker City, t'oqullle, and perhaps other towns have al ready taken steps to submit amendments to their charters"" at their .municipal election. As to the plan of revision in Astoria, Mayor Wise wrote me last Summer that the Coun cil formed a oommisslon "consisting of one member of the Council fim each ward; the Senator and Representatives elected to the next Legislature; Mayor, City Attorney, Auditor and Treasurer; three representatives of the Labor Council, representing the vari ous labor Interests, and live large property owners, who are considering the charter sec tion by section, and. If any change Is to be made a resolution must be Introduced in writing, lay over for one week before ttjial action is taken so that no hasty or ill-ad-vlsed action can be had. We have also In vited the people at large to send In their suggestions. If they may have any, in writ ing, or else attend our sessions In person. All amendments receiving a majority vote of the entire commission of 111 members will then be submitted to the people direct, at the city election to be held next December, iind every amendment receiving a majority of the votes of the people will then become a part of our charter; that will he a great Improvement over former charter tinkering, which was never done In the open, but smuggled through tho Legislature, causing wrangling and enmity between the residents of the community." The committee believed it would be diffi cult, if not Impossible, to draw a general enabling act for tho city use of the initi ative and referendum powers that would apply to the best advantage and give com plete local satisfaction in all cities and towns. Hut If the people in every city were allowed to provide their own method they could easily amend and appeal until they had worked out a satisfactory method for their own ordinances and charter amend ments. The fundamental idea seems to be that self-government municipal, as well as state and National is yet in its experimental stage, and the 'smaller the scale on which experiments can be tried the more rapid is likely to be tho general progress toward suc cessful methods. The local and special legislation provis ion of the amendment was Intended to cover acts of the Legislative Assembly applying to a district composed of a part of a county or parts of several counties, as for instance. Irrigation districts; districts composed of one or more counties, as for instance, judicial districts or tho Port of Portland district, and two single counties, as for instance the laws regulating the salaries of county officers, etc. An enabling act should be passed by the legislature or by tho people for the opera tion of the Initiative and referendum powers as to such local, special and district legisla tion. tfuch an act will probably bo much the same in general features as the enabling act for the operation of the Initiative and ref erendum on general laws enacted by the Leg islature In li0;i. Amendments to that law will be offered In the coming Legislature, em bodying the experience of the past four years, as it seems to be generally admitted that the practice proves that this statute may be very much simplified and improved. HOME FOR FEKBLE-MINDED Bids for Sale of Land in Vicinity of Salem Are Opened. SALKM. Or.. Oct. 22. (Special.) The State Board of Public Building Commis sioners today opened bides for the sale of land for a home for the feeble-minded. The call for bUls announced that the state desired to purchase a tract of about TXH) acres within 10 miles of Salem, and in vited landowners to offer their land either separately or jointly in tracts which would aggregate tho required amount. The bids opened have not been arranged according to locality, and. as the charac ter of the land and improvements cannot be readily ascertained, it is impossible yet to say what kind of a purchase the state can make. In general it may he said that prices run all the way from 540 to $150 per acre, and that values are placed higher than the board expected to find them. An average price Is about an acre, -which would make the land f or p. home for the feeble-minded cost the state about $G5,0i. Among the places offered, usually in connection with adjoining tracts, are the M irk lkiff farm, north of Luke Labish; the tJesner and MeCornaek farms, be tween the Asylum farm and the Peniten tiary; tho Gilbert & Pauenson farm, at CTLOCA LLIS Eola; - the Ben Hayden farm, - between Eola and Independence; the Putnam farm," in the hills west of Salem; .the Geer farm, at Macleay; the Tilmon Ford "farm, -south of Salem on the Sidney road; tho Wain and Frank Baker farms, south of Salem on the Jefferson road, and the John Hughes Company farm, south of Salem on the river road.

Salt Lake and Ojjden Lose Business From a Very Productive Center. FOCATELLO, Idaho. Oct. 22. (Special.) Under the new joint freight tariff adopted by Western railroads, Pocatello is granted a sweeping reduction in rates from Chicago and - Mississippi and Mis souri river, points. The new tariff goes into effect November 24, and extends to Southeastern Idaho." The low rates now obtain from Eastern points to Salt Lake and common points in Utah. The reduc tion affects class rates and commodity rates as well, and the cut ranges from 5 to 30 per cent. The Utah common-point rate will,' after November 24, extend as far west as Poca tello and as far north as Idaho Falls, and on most commodities will place this-city on an equal footing with Salt Lake and Ogden, which, cities have heretofore dom inated this commercial territory by virtue of their lower freight rates. The cut in first-class rates is from $3.30 per 100 pounds to $2.85 from Chicago, and irom ?2.."0 to $2.15 on first-class freight from Missouri River points. The effect of the reduction will be to constitute Poca tello the commercial distributing point for a territory bounded on the east by Kem merer, on the south by Cache Junction, on the north by Idaho Falls and on the west by Mountain Home. Salt Lake and Ocden can no longer compete for tho trade of this region. The effect of the announcement of the reduc tion was noticeable today, when' local merchants announced their intention of increasing stocks, oh hand and entering the jobbing business. This afternoon op tions were taken on much vacant ground along the line of the new Short Line warehouse track on the East Side, and it is confidently expected that several big wholesale houses and Jobbing "establish ments will be erected within the next few weeks.
