TIIE 3IORXIXG OREGOXIAN, MONDAY. OCTOBER 21, 1913. A 10 VIEWS OF WOLFE MEET OPPOSITION Assertions as to Tax System Prevailing in Vancouver, B. C, Are Contradicted LETTER'S CONTENTS MARK Many Well-Known Lawyers Alleged to Have Expressed Opinion That Corrupt Practices Act Has Been Violated. In a letter consisting of what Charles H. Shields, secretary of the Oregon Kqual Taxation League, describes as "perhaps the grossest forms of mis representation I have yet encountered in the Oregon single tax campaign," W. J. Wolfe, an East Side realty dealer, is advising his brother dealers to vote for the graduated single tax or the Multnomah County single tax measure. which he does not exactly specify. - As this letter Is multlgraphed in an attempt to make It appear a personal letter and as the name of the multi- rranher Is not given. It is the opinion of several well-known Portland lawyers that it embraces also a violation of the Corrupt Practices Act. Opposition la Expressed, Mr. Wolfe's letter asserts that the proposed graduated measure and the Vancouver, B. C, tax system amount to the same thing. He argues that real estate Is moving rapidly in Van couver and that reality men, dependent on commissions, should vote for the graduated measure. "I am afraid that Mr. Wolfe must have been taking his Information con " cerning the British Columbia laws from ' the Interesting pieces of fiction which W. S. U'Ren and Dr. W. G. Eggles'ton have been administering In lethal doses to the people of Oregon, commented Mr. Shields yesterday, after perhaps a score of Portland realty men had called or telephoned to him and indignantly read the Portland letter. Each realty man was particular to impress upon Mr. Shields that the Realty Board, which they said was composed of only reliable dealers, was strongly opposed to the single tax. System Not Single Tax, Is Said. "As a matter of fact," went on Sec retary Shields. "British Columbia has ". no single tax at all. First of all there .'. is a poll tax of 13 a head. Why Mr. U'Ren should have the effrontery in 'ace of this to point to British Colum bia is more than I can say. For we .nust remember that Mr. U'Ren told us that in repealing our poll tax (which n-e didn't impose) he was taking a step towards single tax, although as a mat. ter of fact he was cleverly tricking the roters into voting for county home rule. 'Then British Columbia taxes banks, tanneries and other manufactures. All these are to be exempt under the grad uated single tax. Mr. Wolfe says that the Henry George theories are not being voted on. I say they are. Mr. U'Ren says they are. The Fels Fund Commission, which is putting up the money, says they are. Only deluded persons of the raliber of Mr. Wolfe, who have never (tudied the proposed measures at all, contend that the Henry George single :ax is not being offered Oregon. Mack Money Spent. "Mr. U'Ren told the Fels Fund Com mission two years ago virtually that he had tricked Oregon, but that "how 'sin gle tax Is the question before the house' A short time ago he wrote to The Oregonlan that the graduated measure was a flatfooted single tax measure.' The Fels Fund Commission was established to place the Henry George single tax somewhere In five rears and it is spending thousands of lollars in Oregon for this purpose. "So the graduated measure and the county measure are single tax Henry George single tax. "And single tax will chase values down so fast that all land will be con fiscated to the state. Mr. Wolfe may see some way then to collect his com mission, but personally I think he would be more successful If he hunted for the pot of gold at the foot of a rainbow. Mr. Shields la Confident. "The fight on graduated single tax comes from person of all classes who desire to save Oregon from a pest. Farmers, business men and citizens are shoulder to shoulder. "I have no doubt that both the state and county measure will be voted down, but what is necessary especially Is a vote for 30S Yes. This is a meas ure to repeal the fake county home rule measure and make single tax in future a square issue not one that will per mit men like Mr. Wolfe to advocate. "I wonder, too, if the Fels Fund Com. mission paid Mr. Wolfe's postage and printing bills." Following is the circular letter as signed by W. J. Wolfe: This proposed single tax measure Is of the greatest interest to every mail who Is making his living out of commissions on tne sals of real estate. I am not well up on Henry George and would vote "no" If his theories wre to be voted on, but the proposed Oregon "Grad uated Tax" is similar to the Vancouver, B. C. tax system and the Vancouver real es tate agent is making more money than we are by a great deal. What you and I want is a lively market and Vancouver has that. And all the real estate men there say the tax system mads their good times. If it did in Vancouver 11 will do it in Portland. All the fight on the graduated tax comes from people who make their money by hold ing vacant land for a raise not from men ho get their living out of commissions on sales -of real estate. During the last year under the old tax yvstem Vancouver had building permits of seven million and during the lirst year un der the "Single Tax" thirteen millions and (he permits have been going up all the time. UNCLE SAMSTAR BOARDER' Government Exempt From Paying Assessment to Portland. By virtue of Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17, of the Constitution of the United States, and Section 35 of the Federal Statutes. Uncle Sam Is enabled to get and remain indefinitely In the "star boarder" class at the expense of any state, county or municipality in which he may own property. That is, under the constitution of the law. Gov ernment property is not only exempt from taxation, tut is nonassessable for improvements abutting or adjoining, such as sewers, water mains, pavements or sidewalks. Regularly as cities make such im provements contiguous to Federal prop erty, they send bills for the same to the proper department at Washington, and as regularly the head of that depart ment replies that there Is no appropria tion to cover such charges, referring :ha authorities of the city In question :o the unconstitutionality of such thitrfres. Such a letter was received yesterday by Acting Postmaster Williamson, with a request to transmit the same to Mayor Cushlight. The letter came as a reply to a bill rendered the postofflce de partment for street Improvement ad Joining tlfe Portland postofflce. The cost of the Improvement must be paid this time, as in the past, from the gen eral fund of the city. "WOMAN IN WHITE" PLAYED Eugene Pictures Will Be Shown at People's Theater This Week. Picture fandom was not disappointed at the People's Theater yesterday, at the) initial presentation of "The Woman in White." the filming of a book which a generation ago was widely read. Wllkie Collins, the author, wrote for the masses, who craved In that day, as they do In this, for excitement, com plicated plot. Immaculate virtue, and, when it saw a villain, wanted him as black as night. The photoplay, how ever, has greatly refined the tale . of the book, and the offering by the Thanhouser company is a creditable one. "Taming a Bachelor" was a sort of comedy-drama, and Beethoven por trayed the sad fate of the world's greatest musician. The Venetian Duo offered an operatic vocal selection In Impressive style. Wednesday next the People's will commence a four-day ex hibition of the recent railroad celebra tion at Eugene, Or., in which there is plainly recognized many of . Portland's prominent citizens.

Franklin Noble, better known as "Frank," the oldest member of Canby Post, No.' 16, G. A. R., dropped dead at his home here, the cause being heart failure. Mr. Noble had been sub is your duty as a citizen to know what your government does, and how it It is your privilege, as a this newspaper to buy a the mere cost of production Its interesting style readers, ject to these attacks for several years and had made a request that when the last one came that the "funeral be delayed for a few days to see if thelast call had come." As a consequence no ar rangements have been made for the fun eral. He was a Corporal of Company F, Third Regiment, California Volun teer Infantry, and served throughout the war, and had been a member of the Regular Army for five years pre vious. He leaves a wife, who was for merly Mrs. Mary A. Palmer. Mr. Noble came to Hood River about 85 years ago. Mr. Noble bore the unique distinction of being one of the three living members of the Walker expedition against the Central Amer ican states about 1850, a filibustering movement that was i upposed to have had the financial backing of the Van derbllts. The expedition was a failure and the matter was hushed up. BOTH RIVERS NAVIGABLE Columbia and Snake Open to Lewia ton, Idaho, Entire Year. LEWISTON, Idaho, Oct. 20. (Special.) The recent convention of the Columbia-Snake River Waterways Associa tion In this city developed the fact that, in the Judgment of the Govern ment navicators and experienced local steamboat men, the Columbia and Snake Rivers are navigable to Lewiston prac tically the entire year. Captain b. v. Wlnslow, of the Government steamer Umatilla, made the trip from Umatilla to Lewiston in a gasoline launch, ac companied by Captain W. P. Gray, of Pasco, and Captain C. S. Jewett, an ex perienced sea master of Lewiston. Cap tain Gray took careiui sounaings Be tween Pasco and Lewiston. In sum ming up his report he says: "1 have no hesitancy in saying that light-draft steamboats loaded to 38 inches could run from ceiiio to iewis ton at the present stage of water with comparative success." Captain Arthur Kiggs, or portiana, who operated the Open River boats from Lewiston to Celilo in 1909, holds fhtsic:m fight hard battle In evidence note this chart Digitalis, Strychnine, Nltro - Glycerine, Basham's Mixture, Calomel, Salts, Aromatic Spirits of Ammonia, Mustard Plasters and hot sweat baths had all been ex hausted. The patient, Mrs. Jane Yancey Harris, of Henderson, N. C, was in the last stages of Bright's Disease. There was ureamic vomiting, enlarged heart and dropsy, nearly solid albumen and the extreme symptom Retinitis had so far advanced that the patient was, nearly blind. Patient could not He down and couldn't live much longer sitting up, and the prognosis was so distinctly hopeless that a car was chary ed and the patient was taken home tf ia. On arrival, patient was put ont 'ton's Renal Compound. It resulted in e-.ov-ery. And that this was not temporary may be known from the fact that we now have a letter nearly three years later which closes: "I have Just returned from a ten days' trip to Washington City was on the go night and day and am holding my own In spite of years." According to medical authorities and the attending physicians, this was a hopeless case. We again say, and for the thousandth time, that the physician who will add Fulton's Renal Comnound to stop renal degeneration to the treatment he Is now giving in Bright's Disease will get results In many cases in which failure Is certain without it.
