of the ferry through the council, de
spite the exposure by The Journal of
the deal In which G. J. Perkins, rami I
date on the People's ticket for city at
torney, took an active part, to foist the
worthless craft on the city for throe
times Its value.
It Is pointed out by the members of
the league, that a construction can be
placed upon a provision of the new city
charter thut will allow the council to
vote bonds for the purchase of the ferry
or any other public utility without sub
mitting the bond Issuo to the people.
Since Perkins and other parties lnterent-
ed In the proposed sale of the ferry to
the city are on the J-'eopie s llcKet, ine
Good Government tlengue luipportors
believe that such a scheme Is on foot.
The members of the Good Govern
ment league believe that a free ferry is
esxcntlal to the future city of St.
Johns: that If such a gateway wore
opened to the fertile North Plains conn-
try or Washington county. Just over me
bills from Kt, Johns. It would he a
meat boon to the citv. However, the
leairue does not propose to purchase a
broken-down vessel thut would have to
be replaced within a few years. Re
cently during the high water the op
erators were afraid to tako the fenv
ncross the liver and It was tied up to
the bank until the flood subsided.
The press of Rt Johns lias nlro In
timated that a wholesale scheme of col
onization has boon launched and the au
thorities have been asked to keep close
watch at the polls. St. Johns has a
registration scheme provided liy ltd
charter which Is a mirt of safeguard
ugalnst colonization.
At all events St. Johns will have a
UPlrlted election tiie outcome of which
will menn conslduanble to the, citizens
nnd will be watered with Interest by
many outside of the city.

(Special Dlsptcb to The Journal.)
McMinnville, Or., March 2?. The tax
payers of Yamhill county are In an an
gry fhood. It Is becoming the prevalent
view that the .apportionment of the
state tax assessed to this county Is far
beyond Its Just proportion, whether
based on valuation or on county ex
penses as the present law provides.
An Investigation is being made and
the alleged glaring inequalities have
aroused some of the citlzeiiH to such a
degree that they have determined to call
a mass meeting to be held ot the court
house here Saturday, April 4, to adopt
some plan of action, either to enjoin
the treasurer from paying the full sum
to the state treasurer, or to make a
vigorous campaign to have the present
law repealed..
The county court will probably be
asked to bear the expense of a suit. If
the court declines to act, the taxpayers
will make the fight.
K. C. Apperson, vice president of the
MCMinnvnie JNationat Dank, gives the
opinion that Yamhill county would pay
near iivu.vvu more man its just pro
portion If the present pro rata were
permutea to run until
Call to Taxpayers Issued.
The law was enacted In 1901: to con
tinue on a fixed basis until 1905. In
1903 tho time was extended to 1910, but
ths basis was not changed. In 1907
tne time was again extended to 1912,
without changing tho basis rate, as was
the Intention when the law was first
enacted.
The following call Is being circulated
and universally signed:
"Call to Taxpayers Mass meeting
Important. The taxpayers of Yamhill
county are hereby called to meet at
tho courthouse in McMlnnvlIl nt i
o'clock Snturday, April 4, to take action
against the unjust stato tax Imposed
upon iiiiii cuumy wnereoy xamalll coun
ty is to be swindled out of tens of
thousands of dollars. Come for busi
ness." Some other counties are In nearly as
bad condition as Yamhill. Experts are
at work and will have all of the figures
at hand for the meetlnsr. which win
aouotiess ecnpse in interest all politi
cal meetings for the present year.
