Seattle and San Francisco 're bitterly at war over the business, and Portland seem to be given no consideration whatever. Yes terday the chamber of commerce of that city wired Senator Mitchell to use his influence to secure a share for Port land, but the late start made w III prob i,bly have the effect of ruining any chance that Portland otherwise would have had. The key to the transport business oe-jm to -est with location of nuarters for troops, and there Is lit tle question that the columoia river cities. Portland arid Aitorla. would get their fuH share were Fort Stevens made a point for the mobilisation, of troops. The county court has referred to Dis trict Attorney Allen, for an opinion on legal points, the matter of the pro posed construction of a Joint city nan and courthouse. The member or tne court are anxious to determine Just what the status of the city would be were the construction of the building undertaken. At the present time the city could not hope to pay half the . of the building, because the maximum tax fixed by law. W mills. Is needed for ...t..i rainv The city has a IllUll.v.'I'n. I'"- - seat of government, such as It la. and nays no rent. Were the county to build the courthouse and rent a por tion 0f it to the city, the municipality would be '.vorse off than ever, as the additional rental expense would be en-i-iiort Were the city to sell It prop erty, however, and apply the proceeds on the debt. It could reasonably incur ho additional rental expense. Doubt less if the courthouse and city hall are Jointly constructed and the city takes up with the rental proposal, payments w ill cease a soon as the amount paia hv it In rent equals what may be re garded a Its Just proportion of the coat. When the curt finds out auout ihem. maters, some definite action will be taken with reference to the building of the courthouse. All the members of the court are on record as favoring the courthouse, and. as levies of this kind ran be made In spite of remons trances, It is quite probable that the plan will be carried out. It Is the Intention to levy a small tax. say 4 mills, for a period of live years, as In this manner the cost of the building would be rendered less burdensome. It now transpire that many of those who opposed the courthouse proposal li.l so throurh fear that a courthouse levy would have the effect of killing the proposition for the Iwls and Clark bruise. But the bridge levy wlll.be made, and much of the opposition will be overcome. Entertainment Glv n Last Night by Junior and Sophomore C1hw Netted $0.
