Object of an Election Decided on by Taxpayers at a Meet ing Last Night. jr. .a.,, LACK OF WATER DRIVES ' PEOPLE TO THIS COURSE Committee Will Arrange AH Pre liminaries for a Vote at Earliest Possible Day. By a referendum vote the people of Montavllia will decide the question of the Incorporation of that suburb. . The chief cause of dissatisfaction with pies cnt .conditions is lack of pufJltc water service, and failure of U efforts to cure relief from the etty of Portland. After a lengthy discussion of pplnts Involved In the' all-Important question Of water, a town meeting was held at Odd Fellows' hall last night resolved to refer the whole matter to the people of Montavllia, and a committee was appointed- te arrange for a -referendum vote. Appointment of this committee proved a difficult task, as many declined to undertake the work. The following committee at length consented to serve: Harry 8. Blount. Paul Osburn, D. W, Butler and Mr. Yarnell. Prof. N. W. Boland stated that he wss not ready to support incorporation, as ndthlng ahd been said lo show that It would be a benefit to the people, while facts had been brought out to the dlsad vsntago of the proposition. It had been aid that the saloon men favored Incor poration, and that they would endeavor to have the charter so framed aa to grant the privileges that were withheld by the result of the recent local option election. Another obstacle In the way or chang ing present conditions existed in a con tract that was ometlme ago signed by the resident! of Montavllia with J. M. Arthur of the Mt. Tabor Water company, In which the property owners agreed, in consideration of a reduction of the base rate to that of the Portland Water company so long as It charged no more for the service than was charged by the Portland Water company. U. B. Dickinson of the Montavllia water committee, reported that there waa no prospect of securing city water for Montavllia. A large main being laid from the high-service reservoir at Mt. Tabor was Intended for supplying the Peninsula and WOodlawn. The Incorporation committee appointed last night will immediately arrange pre liminaries for the vote. Boundaries will be defined, the necessary number of sig natures to a petition will be secured, and the county court will be asked to call an election.

The town, of Qreaham, tn this county. may not be able to levy a legal tax this year. Tha question has been submitted to lawyers, and their opinions are not In agreement. The county clerk la in clined to toeliev that no legal tax can be levied at this time. A abort time ago a raqueat was made of the county clerk for the taxroll for Greaham. He found nothing on the rolla referring to Gresham. At first It waa thought the omission waa due to a clerical error. Investigation "disclosed that Greaham bad been incorporated un der the general act on June 8. 1004, while tha taxroll was made up on March 1, three months prevloualy. Bat. after having been Incorporated under the general act, after tha making of t he county taxroll, Gresham as a town does not appear t hereon, and it appears to bo beyond tha authority of the county clerk to Include it. Juat what will be done la not Vet determined, and tha question will remain open until tha lawyers have looked mora closely Into it and'dellvered opinions. School districts organised after the taxroll was made up are not placed In the same class with Gresham or any other town similarly situated, because the territory Included in them Is merely a segregation from other property, and the assessment Is made preclaely th same In .either case. County Clerk Fields said today that the lncreaae In the number of school districts that levy taxes thla year will be considerable, although the exact num ber cannot yet be known. Last year 17 levied taxes and this year to date Ze have reported, with aeveral to come. among them No. 1, comprising the en tire city of Portland. The levlea ao far made are: District No. 2, CH mills; No. 3, 7 mliis; No. 6, t mills; No. I. S mills; No. 10, 7 mills; No. It. mills; No. 1$, 3 mllla; No. II, 10 mills; No. , 23 mllla; No. 20, l.. mllla; No. 11. 3 mills; No. 2. $ mills; Mo. 17. mills; No. 30, "10 mills; No. 17, 6 mills; No. 40. k mills; No. 43, 6 mills; No. 45, 9 mills: No. 4. 1 mill: No. Joint. 3 mills; No. 13 Joint, S mills: No. 42 Joint. 2V mills; No. 07 Joint. 4 mills; No. 70 Joint. 10 mills. Montavllia. with almost as many school children, will b compelled to levy about three and one half times the tax' levied by Mount Tabor, the vslua- tion In Montavllia being proportionately smaller than in Mount Tabor.

Confident of Success Though Kuykendail Is Strong Malar key's Position Is Uncertain. One week from next Monday the legis lature will convene, and the struggle over the organisation of the two houses is growing keen. It Is th general belief that T. B. Kay of Marion will be epeaker of the house of representatives, although A. A. Bailey of Multnomah and W. I. Vawter of Douglas and Jackson are still In the., ring. Kay's conceded strength, however, la little short of the 2f votes necessary to control tha Republican caucus In th house and his friends ciaim that he haa already enough to elect him. Interest centers, therefore, In the tight over th presidency of the sen ate. For the present tit fight lies be twee Senator Kuykendail of l.ano and Senator Carter o-Jackmm, but there la still possibility that Multnomah county may present a candidate at the eleventh hou and ueorge c. Hrowneii is never re garded as absolutely out of any light for office, until the final ballot has been taken. Senator Carter arrived in Portland yes terday. There have been many callers at bis rooms In the Imperial. It 1 somewhat significant tUat the early trains also brought a number of othe state senators. Among them are Sena tors Farrar of Marlon, Wright of Din coin, Tillamook and Yamhill, Whealdon Of Wasco, Haloes of Washington, and Bowerman of Gilliam.. Sherman "and Wheeler. It la apparent that Carter campaign Is being waged with vigor, and he himself speaks hopefully of hi prospects. Carter X RTopef nl. "I hope' to be elected prealdent of the aenate and I believe that I shall be said Senator Carter. "I am In the light because I desire th honor of pre aiding over the senate, and not for aAy ulterior reason, i nave no special leg Islatlon to forward, no measurea whlc I expect to aid by gaining this tight I waa speaker of the house at the special session In the fall of 1391 and at the iegular session of 1888, and now I am ambitious to become president of the aenate." Senator Carter declined to give any estimate of his probable strength, say Ing that It was too early to mak- fore casts of that sort, but he said that he had already received atrong aasurancea of support. The attitude of the Multnomah dele gallon is of course of the utmost lm portance to the candidates tor the presidency of the senate. It is com moidy assumed that the delegation will vote aa a Unit yet this Is not entirely certain. If Multnomah's seven vote were thrown solidly to Kuykendail he would be in a atrong position, though not even then certain to win.

Some r tg-nrea on th Sanat. outside of Multnomah county Kuykendail haa but five votes Including hla own. upon which he Can count with any degree of certainty, and one of the five i Brownells. The list Is Kuyken dail. Brownell, Booth, Rsnd and Tuttle. Seven votes from Multnomah would. with these five, make a total of 11 which la one less than the number re quired to control the Republican caucua Kuykendail hopes. It la aald. to win over either Senator Coke of Cooa and Curry, or Senator I.oughary of Polk, either of whom, according to the fore going calculation, would be enough to decide the contest. But as yet Coke and Loughary are uncertain quantltle. Both ar new members and they are said to have refused to give any definite pledges. Without Multnomah's aid Kuykendail would be absolutely out of the running and with it he would still need the de cisive on vote. ("atter Js credited wit h nine or 10 pledged votes, all of them outside thla county, and ther are other which are regarded as favorable to him. If he can secure all of the unpledged votes outside of this county, he would b elected even though opposed by the solid Multnomah delegation-. One of the greatest elements 0f un certainty in tne situation is the que tlon whether Multnomah county will present a candidate from Its own dele gation for president of the senate. Dan J. Malarkey 1 still a strong possibility. and If It should prove that Kuykendail cannot win. Malarkey would In all prob ability enter the race. He said. What Malarkey Stands. "I can hardly aay unless the situation changes that I am a candidate. I un derstand that It la not at this time the Intention of the delegation to put for ward a candidate of their own, though ! have not talked on the subject wth any member of the delegation nor with any of th local political leaders since my re turn from th eaat." 'Ia the situation likely to change so that you may become an avowed candi date?" "Oh. yes. It may change within the next few daya. ,,5t' have felt all along that U waa a mistake for Multnomah county not to make an effort to gt the presidency of the senate. Soma sen ators outside of Multnomah county who preferred me their support some time ago, before Senator Carter became an active candidate;- have repeated the offer recently, notwithstanding his candidacy." "Hav you heard anything recently of a scheme to enact a law changing the time of th Portland city election so aa to postpone It until 10(?" "No, I haven t, replied Senstor Ma larkey, "but so far as I am concerned 1 will not support any such measure I said last spring, In answer to The Jour nal s Inquiry, that I would not support such a change unless something unfore- n should arise so ss to make It nec essary or advisable to postpone th city election. I know of nothing that would render such a postponement either neces sary or advisable." Senator Brownell a probable attitude has been th subject of some anxious de- hate among Kuykendail s friends Hla allegiance will be at best reluctant and It la lnMmutafl-that he would prefer Snv on elae rather than the man from Ijine. Probably th price of BrowncJI's adher ence to anv candidate would lie thg prom Is of the chairmanship of the com mute on railroads, th position which he held befor his election to th presi dency of the senate two years ago. TAXPAYERS WILL DISCUSS SCHOOLS ' Annual Meeting of the Portland District Promises to Be .

Taxpayers of the Portland school dis trict will decide tonight whether the high school will be built snd the pro posed. Increase in the tesehers' salaries be granted. Both propositions will have many champions, and the annual meet lng the high school building promises to lie a lively one. Strong resolutions favoring the erec tion of a high school on the eaat aide will be presented by the Bast Side Im provement association, and It Is believed that the majority of the taxpayers favor the proposed high school. A delegation of teachers will be.pres- ent to support their request for an In crease In salaries. To increase the talarles 10 per cent will require a C mill additional tax. The taxpayers will n sll probability grant t he reqaest. The proposed additions to the Sell- wood, llighlsnd. Ockley Qreen and Alblna Central schools will have to be granted In order to accommodate the pupils next year, and It la expected that the recommendations of the directors to build a new school In Holladay Park to relieve the crowded condition of the Holladay and William avenu school will be adopted.
