Portland, for " fMM " ' The amendment to the sidewalk repair ordinance which was passed at the last Council meeting has caused some con fusion and worry to local contractors, owing to their neglect to Inform them selves as to Its provisions. Many do not know yet that the city law has been changed and the first they become aware of the fact Is when they go to the City Engineer's office to secure a repair pec mlt. The'amendment was passed on July 1, but did not become effective until it was signed by Mayor Williams on July 8. In the meantime the former sidewalk ordinance was effective and permits were Issued under Its terms, which pro vided that wooden sidewalks could be re paired, where the cost of repairs did not exceed one-sixth the cost of a new walk. The amendment repealing that statute. however, provides that no permits shall be Issued where It Is required to re place more than one-sixth of the flooring surface. The cost does not enter Into the arrangement at all, not even the stringers or cross pieces allowing any difference. It plainly states that such repairs can be made up to the point of replacing one-sixth of the planking sur face. Ignore Provisions. A number of Jobs are now under way n which this provision Is Ignored, but as the permits had already been issued and are good for JO days, It was decided by City Engineer Elliott that the work In such cases could be completed. Where the work has not been started, though and the permits were Issued after July i, new permits will probably have to be aecured. The portion of the amendment of gen eral Interest Is as follows: An ordinance to amend section S of ordinance No. 12862 as amended by ordi nance No. 12170: The city of Portland doe ordain as follows: Section 3: I'pon the above described and designated streets no wooden sldewalka shall be re paired, reconstructed or altered to an extent greater than replacing one-sixth of the covering plank of the sidewalk to each lot, and after a wooden sidewalk has been once repaired either tinder the terms of this ordinance, any former or dinance of the city of Portland or at all so that one-sixth of the covering planks to each lot has been replaced, then and In that event no further or other repair or repairs shall be made upon such sidewalk.

But the In vestigation subsequently made by the expert, Oeorge Black, brings to light some slgnlflcent facts which put a very different complexion upon the transac tion and raise strong suspicion of will ful and fraudulent falsification of the tax records, for the purpose of afford ing a pretext for the compromise de sired. That portion of the expert's re port now on file In the County Clerk's office, which bears upon this matter. Is as follows: "The petition (of Edwin Shannon) doea not claim any Irregu larity in the assessment, and the orig inal roll appears regular In every way. also the Sheriff's return. In fact the whole matter appears regulsr. In every way. except on theeallas writ of March 16, 1899. whr It appeared for a tlm a Block 60. Oa my first raAmlnation of this Item I notlod that th elphwr had ben a4dd at some tlm subse quent to th original Htry, and. noted aooordlngly, bnt on a later examination find that th clphsr haa ben erased And. the assessment and sal now appear regular throughout. I am at a loss' to account for this proceeding, but It serves to illustrate the method pursued tn this office in regard to the cancella tion of taxes." The expert adds that "there is no evidence on the petition that the mat ter came regularly before the eommls sloners. nor Is the commissioners' jour nal signed by the County Judge." Who Falsified th Bordt The circumstances noted by the ex pert seem to Indicate: First That the record of the as sessment. Including the alias writ, was originally correct in every particular. Second That subsequently to th original entry on the alias writ It wa falsified fey the alteration In the de scrlptlon from "Block 6" to "Block 60, a cipher having been added to the de scrlptlon ft a first written, i, - Third That between October, 1902 when the expert began his Investigation and April, 1903, when he completed it some person attempted to remove the evidence of this fraudulent tampering with the records by erasing tle cipher wnicn naa oeen aaaea oerore onnnnon filed his petition tn 1901. The conclusion seems Inevitable that the first falsification of the tax record was deliberately made in order to create an apparent Irregularity and thereby afford a pretext for asking the County Court 4o remit the tax. It would oln appear -1 ha t -theauthor of this Yraud if- lent alteration became alarmed when he learned that the county records were being experted. and Nought to remove the evidences of his guilt by erasing the cipher which he had previously Inserted on the alias writ The attorneys for the county intend to make a rlsrld Investigation In the hope of discovering the Identity of the suppoKed criminal who thus tam pered with the records. The case af fords strong confirmation to the asser tion of the expert In the conclusion of his report, that "It is generally known that taxpayers were importuned by officials with a view to filing petitions and having taxes reduced, on uggstd or oonoocted Irregularities of assess ment or sals, for a, consideration." will refuse to attend, and If the teacher ; :i k1 stopped over here for the sake of rest I a mjft ill uintiyiiuo iiuvui nn v. 1 1 irj XT at n ?
