ROSE1WRO, Ore., Feb. 21. A very important decision, nnd ono that will have the effect of reducing tho amount of money to bo spent on the roads of Douglas County by about $72,000 was handed down by tho Oregon Supreme Court on Feb ruary 10, when tho high tribunal held that all special road taxes levied throughout the state during tho years 1910, 1011 and 1012 woro Illegal nnd could not bo collected. Accord ing to the decision, tho supremo court found tho law governing tho lovylng of special road taxes uncon stitutional, and without effect. Tho original law giving tho voters of the county, or road districts the right to levy special road taxes was passed by the stato legislature In the year l!)0:i. and upon being submit ted to tho supremo court was held constitutional. In tho year 1000. howovcr, the bill, or law was amend ed, and to Biieh an extent that It was rendered unconstitutional. The chief grounds on which tho special road tax law was declared unconstitution al by tho supieme court was that It failed to designate tho qualifications of n voter. In fact, the amendment so ('Imaged the original taw that It road to tho effect that the taxpayers In any county In the stato might vote a special tax for road purposes. Tho amended law made no reference, whatovcr, to tho qualifications of a voter simply being to the effect that tho tnxpnycrs were eligible to vote. In Interpreting tho law tho supremo court hold that Inasmuch as many non-residents of tho stato owned nnd paid taxes on lauds In tho several countloB they would hnvo a perfect right to vote nt tho special road elec tions under tho terms of tho 1000 act. Tho law utterly failed to doslg nato tho qualifications of a voter and inndo no rofcrenco to age, sex or resi dence of the porson desiring to vote. Tho Bpoclal road lovles through out Douglns County for tho year 1012 range from ono to ten mills, and would hnvo raised approximately $72,000, This sum, under tho tonus of tho ruling of tho Oregon supremo court cannot be collected.
