Happy Heine Wins Jaeger
Cup After Wierd Exhi
bition of Speeding.
Before a larg e crowd that lined the
river bank near the rowing club and a
warm of pleasure craft of all ktnda and
description, tha first club motor boat
race ever pulled off In Portland were
held yesterday afternoon. Three .races
, were- on the program, the two mile, four
mile and .eight mile handlcapa.
Tha Bdt-or Hoels. built, owned and
driven by Allen Burdlck. an lS-year-old
member of the club, carried off tha first
race, the two-mile affair, In tha faat
time of 18:23. This boat waa tha second
one to start and came -across the line a
good 800 yards In the lead. Behind her
came the Honey Boy. the boat which bad
the greatest time allowance and closely
follnwinor It came the Venus. -, Many
thoua-ht the time allowances made
the little boats to be too great but It
must be said for them that they showed
better generalship.
Tha second race wu won byJ.-C
Alnsworth'a Rochester. This race waa
much better contested than the first
race, all three of the place winning
hoats finishing well up In I bunch.
First came the Rochester under the
guidance of Harry Bell, then following
p.bout seconds behind came the Mer
cedes, Henry Larsen driving, with the
Happy Heine third. Time. z:us.
The Happy Heine, which had kept the
spectators craning their neck watching
lier tearing up and down me river pra
limlnarv to tha race, came near ending
up In the bottom of the river in the
third and last race of the day for J the
. Jaeger cuo. She started rrom cttratcn
in this race and, as the boats came out
from uner the Madison bridge and Into
ihe rarge of the telescopes at the finish
It was seen that she waa about even
vIth the leaders but that she was racing
madly from one aide of the river to the
other, and rolling like an ocean liner.'
As she reached a point about (00
yards distant from the finish aha sud
denly spurted over toward the point. of
Tloss island and when almost up to the
. log booms suddenly turned again and
1 this time headed straight for the finish.
The engine had broken loose from the
bottom ot the boat and although atill
running was almost out of tha control
of tha men in her. Despite all tha
ground lost she finished four lengths
ahead of the Sterling. The Kittle fin
ished third. Time, 18:44. : ,
The race scheduled to be run between
the Wolf, the Vixen and the Alamo waa
called off. . . -
The success of tha races was largely
due to the organizing work of Commo
dore Oeorge J. Kelly and- .Manager
James B. Welch, who succeeded In
getting out, an unusually large number
of contestants. ,. The judges were Rob
ert Oberteuffer. A. Fleming, and George
Kinnear. Mr. Klnnear la the late com
modore of the Pittsburg, Penn., club,
and joined the local club yesterday. His
experience was a great help In' carry-
' Ing off tha races. Dr. Dammasch was
starter and C M. Myers was timer.

San Francisco, June II. Just to show
that they are not all In the Beavera
slashed .Into tha Greeks yesterday and
took botn games with consummate ease.
In the morning the hitting waa the
hardest ever- seen on a local diamond,
two home runs, a brace of trlplea and
a quintet of doubles, beatdes a big bunch
or singles oetng made Dy coin teams.
It. required 10 innings to finish tha
after breakfast affair, but the post pran
dial engagement left the Commuters
with a hat full of goose eggs.
Portland meant business and started
out with four scores. But Oakland was
not to be denied and when Haley rested
on tha bags Heine Heltmuller tore off a
wallup which, cleared the fence, likewise
the bag's.' Tex Garrett whlzsed one too
cloaa to Truck gan. who followed
Heine and Truck repeated with a beaut
that ahot clear of the boards. When the
ninth came along the northerners put
pair over. However, the Oaks evened up
by shoving a trio of runa across in tha
same lnnlnr. '
With alx all, the teams went Into the
extra inning. The Beavera swung like
headsmen on Hopkins' offerings. Tommy
Madden biffing nls second Uiree bagger,
and three more runs were thrown into
the Greeks' faces.'-
Pearl Casey was Injured by a foul
tip from Danslg'a bat in tha morning
game and waa compelled to retire.' He
will probably be out of the came for
several asys.
Bobby Groom had the locals on his hln
during the matinee. Six ot tha Beavera'
runs were tha result., of working the
squeesa play overtime. Van Haltren's
outfit was outplayed at every stage of
the game and the northern victory waa
a deserved one. , ,

- (a) Street railway companies in the United States pay a higher
tax per dollar of income than any other extensive industry known,
except uquor ana iodscco manuiacrurers.

A writer in the Yale Law Review Ausrust 1899. osm 173". in
summing up the situation, said: yv; ;v v r

CALITIES VARIES GREATLY. AS WE HAVE SEEN. ANn
REACHES ALL ALONG FROM THE ENTIRE TAX EXt
EMPTION, ON THE ONE HAND. TO OPPRESSIVE TAX
ATION (WELL-NIGH CONFISCATION) ON THE OTHER."
It is a fact that the Portland Railway! Light & Power Comeanv
pays taxes and charges in the following amongst other forms:'
(1) privilege oi crossing bridges; (2) taxes upon its power houses,
carbarns and other valuable real estate at the same rate as a citi
cen; (3) taxes on its tracks, which are assessed as real estate:
(4) city ordinance payments: (5) taxes on its franchises: 16) cost
of street paving and bridge assessments, snd- for the renair of
streets between and beside its tracks, notwithstanding the fact
THAT THIS REQUIREMENT IS SIMPLY A SURVIVOR
OF HORSE CAR DAYS, WHEN THE COMPANY'S HORSES
HAMMERED THE TRACKS. Today, with electricity, no iniurv
is done to the streets by the tars, and yet the company continues
to pay for the repairs made necessary, by carts and wagons which
wear out its tracks and adjacent street surface.
We, do not ask for unreasonable -.reductions, but do ask to be
let alone until we "catch up," and want to impress you with this

the carriage too heavily and you Impair its efficiency. Further
more, it should be remembered that there is hardly a saviners bank
in the city, where the man of modest means keeps his money, which
is not largely interested in the securities of our company. What
difference does a fraction of a cent a year make to you when com.
pared with your daily convenience in regularity and efficiency of
service? And is it not true that every dollar of tax beyond a living
rate is a tax on efficiency and good service? To-an v man who
thinks accurately, it must be clear that an unfair burden impairs'

rush-hour difficulty. It is also clear that if you cripple the com
fanys financial power, you seriously interfere with its ability to
ead in the development of the city and its suburbs. ,
FINALLY: It is to the interest of every citizen to see that ha
gets good serivce at reasonable rates, and that money which should
be devoted to this purpose is not diverted to excessive taxation.
Over S2.000.0OO have been spent on the Drooertv in the last wear
for betterments and extensions', and the system of free transfers
saves the traveling public about $400,040 per annum assuming
that all passengers who now ride on free transfers would be willing
to pay the price formerly charged therefor and which is permitted '
in many otner large cines.
