lng at cross-purposes and cross-interests,
can unite in the enactment of
sane, progressive legislation that the
state needs.
Important Legislation Pending.
With the many problems of unusu
ally pressing importance that will
come before the next Legislature for
solution, including primarily those of
reduction of state expenses and lower
ing of taxes; scientific revision of the
tax laws; elimination of useless com
missions, and consolidation of others;
and other matters of grave economic
and social import, it has been, felt that
men of tried efficiency should be
chosen. Thi3 and this alone has been
the motive behind the call.
None of the 12 men on the list has
been chosen from any personal or po
litical motive. In fact none of those
Included is known to have any political
ambitions other than to serve the pub
lic interest in the best way.
It is true that the 12 men invited in
the cal to become candidates are all
Republicans. The Republican party is
the predominating party in Multnomah
County, as the present registration
shows, and it is reasonable to sup
pose that a majority of the 12 Legis
lators elected from the county will be
Republicans. For this reason it has
been felt that 12 Republicans should
be named.
Movement Is ot Partisan.
At the saem time, the movement -to
ask these men to becomo candidates
for the Legislature is in no respect a
partisan movement. It Ts not actuated
by partisan or party feeling, but by
purposes of good citizenship. It is felt
that Democrats, Progressives and mem-lers-of
other parties can vote for any
and all the men in the list without
feeling other than that they are vot
ing in the interests of the public good,
regardless of party lines.
On the other hand, the citizens who
have signed the call hope that citizens
of the Democratic party and of the
Progressive party will issue similar
tails to 12 good men o ftheir respec
tive parties to becomo Legislative can
dicates at the primary election on May
15, so that, in any event, men who are
qualified and able, without regard to
party affiliation, may be elected to
the Legislature at the general election
on November 3.
Here is the call sent out by the cit
izens and thenames of those signing it:

"An Address to the Voters el Multno

''This is at once a statement of con
ditions that confront every citizen and
a call to public duty.
"We take fhis method of bringing
to the general attention the pressing
need of appropriate steps toward
measures of relief from the oppressive
burdens of increasing taxation, and for
introducing In our Government more
prudent and effective methods of
economy, industry and accountability.
We have the faith in the destiny of
our slate that is common to all
patriotic citizens. But we feel that
there is an imperative necessity that
our present welfare be protected and
our future prosperity be assured by
the assumption of the responsible
duties of Government In the Legisla
ture by earnest, careful and experi
enced men. We have no purpose of
making war on any group of men or
cIbsh or system or of advancing- the
special interest of any political party,
but we have been impressed with a
growing nenso of apprehension over
the universal trend toward public ex
travagance and we are certain that
something must be done to put on the
brakes. It is our purpose in this
manner to solicit a number of our
well-known citizens to become candi

The total taxable valuation in the State

a population of less than 500.000. The
total taxes paid to the state in that
year tnot including the public schools'!
was approximately $1,000,000. In 1913,
with an estimated population of 800,
000. the assessed valuation of all prop
erty is $954,000,000, and total taxes paid
by all counties for state purposes is
$4,165,000. This is the direct tax upon
our people, and does not include the

"We are obliged to say that we have
seen no satisfactory sign that taxes in
state, county, city and school district
are soon to be materially reduced,
though we arc willing to assume that
all public officials are anxious to do
what they can to alleviate this serious
situation. But they are face to face
with laws which require large expen
ditures, and with a system which calls
for "man y far too many employes on
the public payrolls. We are convinced
that there is a lack of co-ordination
between the various branches of our
government and much unnecessary du
plication of service and effort by vari
ous commissions, bureaus and boards,
and the waste of much public money
In unprofitable activities. We are
aware that the state tax is . by no
means the largest paid by the citizen,
but we believe that an example of cau
tion and great deliberation In state ex
penditures by our Legislature will be
followed in county and city: and we
are sure, also, that laws requiring re
trenchment in the expenditures for
state, county, city and school district
may be, and should be, enacted by the
Legislature.
"The County of Multnomah, has 1J
members of the Representative branch
of the State Legislature. We intend
no reflection upon any member of our
past Legislature or upon any candidate
for. the forthcoming Legislature: but
we are urmiy. persuaded that,, if our

In tho Legislature and respect for its
members: and we are within the
bounds of moderate statement when
we .say that the Legislature has in
recent years declined In the common
regard. It should not be so: It must
not be so. The Legislature may be re
stored to its proper position of im
portance, dignity and influence if its
deliberations shall be marked by a sin
cere and intelligent regard for the
general Interest.
Common Alms Essential.
"We believe that the only way to
bring about this desirable and neces
sary condition is to elect to the Leg
islature citizens of demonstrated ca
pacity and known repute. It is of the
highest importance that Multnomah
County send to the Legislature as rep
resentatives IS men having commoon
aims, and a common understanding,
rather than 12 men with divided pur
poses and individual ambitions, and
with no definite or generally accept
able plans for remedial legislation.
"To that end we invite the following
citizens to become candidates before
the Republican primary for Represen
tatives In the Legislature from Mult
nomah County on a platform of re
trenchment in public expenditure and
of greater efficiency In the public
setrice, and we pledge to thorn our
diligent and continuous support tn pro
curing their election and our co-operation
If they shall be elected in every
plan for the common benefit:

Legislator may be accompanied by a
measure of personal sacrifice."
Old Woolen Mill Is Raxed.
MILWAUK1E, Or, April 1. (Spe
cial.) The old mill building on Harri
son street, which had stood for nearly
40 years, and had been occupied for a
tannery and woolen plant, has been
razed to permit the widening of Har
rison street. Owners of the mill prop
erty held up the Improvement In the
courts, but finally were awarded $1150
damages. It Is planned to open Harri
son street to the city limits through
Minthorn Addition. Owners of the prop-
erty. it is stated, will give the neces
sary land for the extension and the
matter will be considered at the meet
ing of the Council April 14. Grades
on Laurel avenue have been fixed by
the city engineer and will come before

tion for the office which he now holds.
His Rooseveltlan tendencies, although
he Is a dved-in-the-wooL never-

neaagear is concerned, are explained
in this way:
Just before the recent meeting of the
County School Superintendents In this

educators with a new derby. Ho pur
chased on of the latest style. The
next day It looked like a pancake for

chair. The State Superintendent bled
himself to a hat store and bought an
other derby. The next night tn some
inexplicable way. tho hat was placed
upon the stairway at his home and
the Superintendent himself stepped on
it. So Mr. Churchill had to purchase
anotner nat rorthwlth. which he locks
in the vault when he is at his office
and keeps tn his bookcase alongside a
volume in higher mathematics entitled

Strong Sentiment Against Surrender

Throu jrhout Country.
OREGONIAX NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. March 29 The Panama Canal
tolls question Is a growing embarrass
ment to Democratic Senators and Rep
resentatives, and while the prospects
still favor the success of the programme
mapped out by President Wilson, It ts
recognized that a protracted discussion
of the question, with Indennite delay
of a vote In the Senate, might bring
about the defeat of this Administration
measure. The chances of defeating the
President's bill, however, are not bright
because of the tremendous Influence of
the President In his own paty.
By Insisting on the repeal of the tolls
exemption clause the President has
placed many members of his party be
tween two fires, and the time is ap
proaching when they must decide
whether to vote their convictions in
accord with prevailing sentiment among
their constituents, or to disregard pub
lic opinion and maintain their party
regularity.
People Want Liit to Stand.
No subject that has been before Con
gress during the present Administra
tion has so aroused public sentiment
as this question of Panama Canal tolls.
The mails of Senators and Representa
tives are being flooded with letters, pe
titions, memorials, etc.. almost all
against compelling American coastwise
vessels to pay tolls for the use of the
canal.
Petitions md protests from the peo
ple carry riore weight Just now than
they would ordinarily, for most mem
bers of the House and one-third of the
members of the Senate will be candi
dates for re-election this year.
One remarkahle thing about the pro
tests against the Administration pro
gramme is that they come from all
parts of the country; from inland states
as well as from the seacoast states that
are most directly affected by tbe canal.
rrotests from tbe coast states are
based largely on the contention that
repeal of the existing law will in
crease transcontinental freight rates, as
well as rates by water from one coast
to the other, but protests from the In
tenor are based largely on a strong
sentiment against any National policy
ilcn contemplates the surrender of
rights to appease a foreign power.
Democrats Defensive.
much prominence has been given
the tolls question that It is sure to
figure conspicuously In the campaign
tnis year, and those Democrats now
disposed to stand by the President ad
mit they will be placed on the defen
sive when they go before the people.
I ne tolls question has not. thus far.
been a party question, but If the pres
ent law ts amended as recommended by
the President the amendment can be
brought about only as a party question
and by a party vote, and so far as the
campaign is concerned the Democratic
party will be the subject of t err I He
onslaught from the opposition.
If the bill for repeal Is passed, said
one Democratic Senator. "The Demo
cratic majority in the next Congress
will be greatly reduced, and It ts quite
possible the Democrats may lose con
trol of the Senate, thus putting an end
to the carrying out ot Democratic leg
isiative politics.
"This factor is one the President
seem not to have considered, but it Is
one he might well pause to reflect on
before forcing an unwilling majority
of the Senate to require A.merlcan
coastwise ships to pay for the prtvi
lege of passing through the canal."
