Newspaper Page TextTHE SUNDAY OltEGOXIAN. PORTLAND, FEBRUARY 22, 1914. TAXPAYERS ATTACK WATER ITER IDEA Mew Association Marks Per manent Organization by Condemning Plan. "FIRST WORK" IN SIGHT fmpowd Expenditure of 9500,000 Branded "Outrage" Organiza tion Has Ambition to Become ClUc Force in County. The proposed expenditure by the city ef $500,000 for installation of water meters became the common point of at tack in the speeches that followed the completion of permanent organization f tho Portland Taxpayers' Association at the Library last night. "One of the first and best things that this association can do In its efforts to conserve the taxpayers' money," said W. L. Boise, "would be to wait on the City Commission and protest against this outrage which they apparently propose to put upon us If they may." Georgfl Rae declared that the instal lation of meters will Involve an added expense per year of SS,000 and that the installation of meters will have no effect whatever on anything but the taxpayer's pocketbook. School Ievy Discussed. Jn his address Mr. Boise also urged, after he had discussed the water meter question, that the association endeavor to have methods of levying- the school tax changed so that the responsibility 'will be upon the board instead of upon a taxpayers' meeting, such as the one which met recently and voted a 7.6 mill levy. The present system he de clared merely gives the School Board a way in which to shirk responsibility. In effecting permanent organization Roger B. Slnnott was selected for the presidency, L. M. Lepper for vice-president, Mrs. Josephine Sharp for treas urer and Q. "W. Gordon for treasurer. The executive committee is: Mrs. Ben ton Killen. Mrs. Katie Klahm. J. H. Nolta. B. McFaul. S. L. Brown. Lola Johnson. Henry Hahn. E. Versteeg and i W. Ooldap. Mr. Slnnott, in reading the report of the committee on permanent organiza tion, said that it is the aim to develop In the county a membership of 15,000 to JO, 000, sufficient to make the re quests of the organization upon tax levying bodies almost mandatory. Districts Are Planned. Tho scheme of organization contem plates dividing the county Into U dis tricts of 20 precincts each. Each dis trict will select a working committee of five, and a central advisory com mittee consisting of one representative from each district will be selected. An nual election of officers will be held the first Tuesday after the first Monday In February, but the new officers will not take their chairs until the second Monday In March, so that there may be no change In the official organization during the sessions of the State Legis lature. Candidacy for public office will auto matically remove from his official posi tion in the association any one of Its officers. Mr. Slnnott said that it was the opin ion of tho executive committee that the expense of maintaining the organi sation should not fall upon taxpayers whose taxes are $50 or less, but that the membership and personal work of the small taxpayer should be consid ered sufficient contribution to its pub lic activities. A resolution was adopted calling for the appointment of a committee of five with J. AV. Conway chairman, which will wait upon the City Commission on Friday and protest against the meter ordinance. Tom Sweeney proposed a resolution alleging graft in the contract for road Improvements by the County Commis sioners and protesting against it. This resolution was, however, referred te the advisory board. ALFALFA STUDY IS FIXED Mr. Churchill Tells Teachers How to Observe Week. SALEM, Or., FebTTl. (Special.) In structions regarding the observance of "alfalfa week" have been mailed to the teachers of the state by State Superin tendent of Public Instruction Churchill. To emphasize the Importance of grow ing alfalfa in the Pacific Northwest, the state superintendents of Oregon, Wash ington and Idaho have agreed to set upart one week each year. In which the growing of alfalfa will De featured In the language work of the grades and high schools. "In many sections of the state," said Mr. Churchill, "alfalfa is the most Im portant forage crop grown. Since our supply of meat, milk and butter de pends, to a large extent, upon the pro duction of plenty of cheap forage, the importance of this crop can be readily seen. Many of our lands have been robbed of their fertility through a fail ure to grow leguminous crops such as alfalfa and clovers.- One of the most Important, yet most expensive fertiliz ers. Is nitrogen. Alfalfa gathers great quantities of nitrogen from the air and stores It in its roots in the form of nodules. The agricultural experts tell us that a field which has been kept in alfalfa for three or four years has had from $30 to $45 worth of nitrogen added to the soil of each acre. The great crops of wheat and oats which are raised on land which has previously been in alfalfa proves the truth of this statement. Since half the boys and girls who are attending school will probably live on farms and be de pendent upon agriculture for their liv- i"e vmm oi leacning tnem more about tftls important plant Is manifest.'

FISH REPORTS MANDATORY Washington Officer Says He Cannot Impose Tax on Seiners. SEATTLE. Feb. 21. (Special.) In a statement today, L. H. Darwin, . State Fish' Commissioner, denies a report emanating from Astoria that he Intends to impose a tax of 1 per thousand on all fish caught by gillnetters and puree seiners jn the Columbia River.

I am, however, complying with the law in requesting the owners of traps and soow wheels to render monthly statements of the fish caught In the same, which the law makes mandatory. For falling to do this, the ex-Fish Com missioner was scored by the Board of Accountancy, which checked up his of fice about two months after he left it, and they pointed out that it was my duty to obey the law in this re spect, and, for that matter, I would nave done It anyway.

Circuit Court Sustains Demurrer to Complaint of G. G. Brown Who Would Guard School Fond Securities. SALEM. Or., Feb. 21. (Special.) State Treasurer Kay today won the first round of his fight with Governor West to be retained as custodian of the state school fund securities and mortgages aggregating $6,000,000. when Circuit Judge Kelly sustained a de murrer to the complaint of G. G. Brown, clerk of the State Land Board, who seeks to be thn custodian. Judge Kelly held that the clerk of the board was not the proper plaintiff in the action and that a replevin suit was not the proper procedure. He in timated that mandamus action should have been filed by the board. District Attorney Ringo, who represented Mr. Brown, was allowed five days in which to institute mandamus proceedings. Governor West some time ago made demand upon State treasurer Kay to turn the school fund securities over to Mr. Brown, declaring that the clerk of the board was the proper custodian. Mr. Kay declined to do so on the ground that the State Treasurer had been the custodian for 40 years, and if the Legis lature had desired another to be, It would have so provided. He further said that he had been Informed by the Attorney-General that the State Treas urer was the only oficial who had given bond covering the securities. Mr. Rlngo was then instructed to file suit in the name of the clerk again. t the State Treasurer. WAR VETERAN IS DEAD Car Accident Said to Have Caused Death of F. B. Giltner. Franklin B.

It is no longer, necessary for any one to suffer with backachingr, kid ney trouble, have disagreeable hlnd- der and urinary disorders to contend with, or be tortured with rheumatism. sun joints, and its heart-wrenchis pains, for the new discovery, Crox one, quickly and surelv relieves all such troubles. Croxone is the most wonderful remedy yet devised for ridding the system of uric acid and driving out all the poisonous impurities which cause such troubles. It is entirely dif ferent from all other remedies. It is not line anything else ever used for the purpose. It acta on the principle of cleaning out the poisons and re moving the cause. It soaks right In through the walls, membranes and linings, like water in a sponge, neutralizes, dissolves, and makes the kidneys sift out and Alter away, all the uric acid and poisons from the blood, and-ku'vea the kid neys and urinary orgtfns elean, sti-ong, healthy and well. It matters not how long you have puttered, how old you are, or what you have used, the very principle of Croxone Is such, that it is practically impossible to take it into the human system without results. There is nothing else on earth like it. It starts to work the minute you take it and relieves you the first time you use It. If you suffer with pains In your back, and sides, or have any signs of kidney, bladder troubles, or rheuma tism, such as puffy swellings under the eyes or in the feet and ankles, if you are nervous, tired and run down, or bothered with urinary disorders, Croxone will quickly relieve you of your misery. You can secure an orig inal package of Croxone at trifling cost from any first-class druggist AH druggists are authorized to personally return the purchase price if it falls in a single case. Adv. To Put On Flesh And Increase Weight A Physician's Advice Most thin people eat from four to six pounds ot good solid fat-making food every day and still do not Increase In weight one ounce, while on the other hand many of the plump, chunky folks eat very lightly and keep gaining; all the time. It's all bosh to say that this la the nature of Uie individual. It isn't Nature's way at ill. Thla folks stay thin because their powers ot assimilation are defective. They absorb just enough of the food they eat to main tain life and a semblance of health and strength. Stuff ins; wc-'t help them. A doxen meals a day won't make them c&in a sinfl "stay there" pound. All the fat- ftroducing; elements of their food just stay n the intestines until they pasa from tne body as waste. What aueh people need Is something that will prepare these fatty food elements so that their blood can absorb them and deposit them all about the body something;, too, that will multiply their red blood corpuscles and Increase their blood's carrying; power. For such a condition I always recommend eating a Sargol tablet with every meal. Sargul is not, ae some believe, a patented drug, but Is a scientific combination of six of the most effective and powerfu fie en bull din pr elements known to chemistry. It Is absolutely harmless, yet wonderfully ef fective and a single tablet eaten with each moal often has the effect of increasing the weight of a thin man or woman from three to five pounds a week. Sargol Is sold by Woodard, Clarke & Co. and other gooa druggists everywhere on a positive guar antee of weight Increase or money back. Adv.
