DESPITE $5,000,000 EXEMPTION
INCREASE 1.54 PER CENT.
Final Determination of 1914 Tax
Levy Will Be Made When State
Commission Ends Session.
Had it not been for the exemption of
more than $5,000,000 worth of house
hold furniture from the 1913 assess
ment roll, this year's assessment
on personal property would have
shown an increase of more than $3,000,
000 instead of a decrease of $2,049,780.
If the personal property assessment had
included the exempted household furni.
ture the total increase, including the
increase of $6,739,130 on real estate and
improvements, would have been $10,
000,000 approximately, or 4 per cent, in
stead of 1.54 per cent as the grand
total shows. The decrease in person'
alty assessed is 3.99 per cent.
Increases are found in franchises,
steamboats and machinery, merchan
dlse, notes, moneys and accounts, farm'
ine implements and vehicles, while de
creases are found only in shares of
stock, household furniture and live
stock.
Improvements in city property in
creased $3,500,000. Tillable and non
tillable lands show a Blight decrease in
valuation, although 40,000 acres not
heretofore shown on the assessment
books are there this year. This large
acreage, however, is non-assessable, be.
ing in the National forest. The total
increase in the real estate division is
$6,739,130, or 2.66 per cent over the val
uation according to the 1912 assessment.
As soon as the State Tax Commis-
ion has finished its work, on which
it is now engaged at Salem, the final
determination of. the new levy will be
made. ' The city has been at work on
its budget for several weeks and Coun
ty Commissioners have commenced
gathering the data necessary to make
up the county 'budget. The several de
partments of state, county and city
government submit their separate bud
gets to the County Commissioners, by
whom the total levy is determined. This
work will be hurried and completed
within the next few weeks.

of their visit to Portland had been
more than realized, the Portola girls

PROPOSALS,
At least two of the. Portola girls
have received offers of marriage from
young men of Portland. They are
Miss Lliette Krause, of San Jose,
where she Is private secretary to the
Mayor, and Miss Elizabeth Gleeson,
of San Francisco.
"They told me confidently, this
evening," said the manager of the
party, Frank Cummlngs, last night.
"They are considering. These girls,
with several others, had expressed a
wish to stay In Portland now what
more can be thought of In the way
of hospitality?"
The girls are keeping the names of
their suitors secret which Mr. Cum
mlngs declares is the surest sign that
the young men have a chance.
in any one city in their entire North
western trip.
Royal Rosarians who had been In at
tendance upon the honored guests
throughout the day rallied in 6till
stronger representation to escort them
to the train from their headquarters
at the Multnomah Hotel and to shower
them with mementoes and farewell
gifts.
As they reached the depot each was
given a beautiful bouquet of roses, with
the compliments of the Commercial
Club. Sealy-Dresser sent down to their
car a fine box of Oregon apples, and
the Sherman-Clay Company sent aboard
for their amusement during the trip
south one of it Victrolas and 100 rec
ords. The Aronson jewelry store gave
to each member of the party a silver
souvenir spoon. Individual gifts of
flowers and candy from Rosarians and
other friends also were pressed upon
the departing guests from all sides.
C. II. Mayer Escort of Honor.
C. H. Mayer, whose enthusiasm led
him to make a pilgrimage to Tacoma
Friday to greet them in behalf of the
Rosarians, organized himself into 'an
escort of honor from' Portland, and will
accompany the party to San Francisco.
A pretty ceremony yesterday morn
ing, to open the entertainment of the
last day in Portland, was conducted in
the Park block south of the Arlington
Club, where the Royal Oaks, of Oak
land, planted and gave to the care of
the Rosarians last June a live oak
tree.
The committee of Rosarians escorted
the San Francisco visitors to the place
where the tree is planted. W. J. Hof
mann, prince regent of the Rosarians,
introduced C. C Craig, keeper of the
oak, who told the Portola girls the
history of its planting and the sym
bolism of friendship between Oakland
and Portland which it held.
Chaperone Carries Message.
Miss E. T. Keenan, chaperone of the
party, spoke in behalf of the girls, and
pledged the party to carry back to
Oakland the message that the tree of
the Royal Oaks is still flourishing and
cared for by the Royal Rosarians.
The shovel which was used at the
planting ceremony last June was passed
among the girls, and one of them thrust
it into the soil by the tree, to sym
bolize San Francisco's sympathy in the
movement for co-operation between the
cities of the whole Pacific Coast.
Hands together up and down the
Coast!" the pledge that was taken by
Knights of the Pasadena Rose Tourna
ment, by Royal Oaks, ty Tillicums of
Seattle, by Rosarians and others at the
Festival in June, was given anew by
the young women who represented the
great festival which is to open in San
rancisco tomorrow.
Luncheon Follows Ceremony.
The ceremony at the tree was fol
lowed by a luncheon to the Portola
girls and the Rosarian committee at
the Multnomah Hotel, given under the
auspices of the management of the
hotel. At 2:30 o'clock the girls were
entertained at a reception at Meier &
Frank's store. Julius L. Meyer in per
son presided over the reception, which
was held in the tearoom of the store.
and which was a most beautiful and
elaborate function.
After the reception the girls were
escorted to the Multnomah to make
ready for departure.
"All the way through the other cities
of the Northwest," said the girls as
they were ready to leave, "people kept
telling us, 'Wait till you- get to Port
land! Wait till you get to Portland."
But what we found here In (Portland
was really more than their predictions.
There was a spontaneity about the wel
come and a novelty about the enter
tainment features that made our visit
to Portland the most striking and mem
orable feature of our trip."
CAR CHANGES SUGGESTED
Proposal to Run Hawthorne IVidge
Linos on Yamhill to Broadway.
In order to save time on both the
Morrison and Hawthorne bridge lines
from the East Side, the East Side Busi
ness Men's Club suggests the following
routing for cars crossing the Haw
thorne bridge: North on First street
from the Hawthorne bridge to Yam
hill street to Broadway to Madison
street to Hawthorne bridge.
Data have been prepared by the club
which show that 191 cars pass Second
and Morrison street during the rush
hours of the day and 135 at other times.
It is declared that by the Hawthorne
cars not going north of Yamhill street
a vast saving of time would be made
on the Morrison-street lines as well
: by cars crossing Hawthorne bridge.
This routing Is being considered by
the Mount Scott and Sellwood clubs.
The Lents Commercial Club has gone
on Tecord against stopping the Haw
thorne bridge cars a - any point south
of Morrison and wants them to run to
Alder street at least.

Dr. Marcellus, of City Administra
tion. Criticises Dr. White.
Feeling which exists between the
city and state health departments came
to the surface again yesterday, when
City Health Officer Marcellus denounced
Dr. Calvin S. White, secretary of the
State Board of Health, before the city
budget committee for what Dr. Mar-
oellus intimated was inactivity in state
health matters on the part of Dr. White.
'About the only thing Dr. White has
done since he was appointed to office,"
said Dr. Marcellus, "is to equip the
state bacteriological laboratories more
fully and get his salary increased."
