THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 11. 1910. :,1L RESERVE MGEM , . - -. -...-.-.....- . .i. . - CRUISER BOSTON Commander MbNulty Receives Letter From Washington, D C, Practically Assuring Him . He May Have Boat , Commander John McNulty, "of tbe Ore gon naval reserve, received . last night a letter from Commander C C Marsh, chief of naval reserve affairs In the liaw deDartment. stating that the ae ntirtment has Practically decided to lend ' the cruiser Boston and the gunboat Con cord to the Oregon and Washington nay. al reserves.' . From the text of the leUer it.ls taken to mean; that the Boston will be as-1 signed to the Oregon reserve and that the Concord will -go to too vyasnmgton organization.' 1 . ' , The Boston is a 8000-ton protected cruiser and Js In fine condition, but will be thoroughly overhauled at the Bremerton navy yard before being turned' over. The department has de , elded to expend about $18,000 on the Boston. . - - Commander McNulty, explains that government . laws ' provide that ships may be loaned to those states that have regularly established naval reserves, but Oregon, not having statutes on its books for that purpose, will. In order to keep this cruiser, enact a law that will answer the requirements. , The government will defray expenses of all repairs and steaming coals and equipment, powder and shells, in fact nearly everything except uniforms for the enlisted men and simple expenses when the ship Is used as an armory la the harbor. ., ': ,"".'::' The contract to bo entered Into be tween the state and the government has been received by Commander McNulty, and who will take the matter tip with the proper authorities. Captain George S. Shepherd, at the recommendation of the department, has gone to Puget Sound navy yard on offi cial business with Admiral Cottman, commandant of -the yard,.- and Com mander Freeman of the Washington re serves m connection with the assignment of "he two vessels and the legal work connected with the blUs that will have to be placed before the legislatures of the respective states.:; ' : .- , , The police department Has generously tendered the use of the police band room for the naval reserve band at tha re quest of Executive Officer J. Spcier, f i ; It was through Captain; John Bl&in, navigating officer of the Oregon reserve that attention was first called ,to the fact that .the! cruiser Boston and the gunboat Concord were : to bo sold, at auction and upon his suggestion that possibly they could be secured as train ing ships, Captain Shepherd and Com mander McNulty took the matter up with the Secretary of Navy L. von Meyer. COLLEGE BOYS AMUSE AUDIENCE According to recipe, the entertainment ' provided by the University of Oregon CI lee fend Mandolin clubs at the Hellig theatre last night was all that could be , . asked for. There was laughter galore ! sprinkled throughout the program, and a seasoning of sentiment , and college ' atmosphere to suit all palates. Taken as a whole,: the show Is well-balanced and entertaining to a degree. What might be termed a monster crowd thronged the tl,aatre and though It was a' quiet audience for a college explolta- tlon, " there was much enthusiasm and polite applause. The Glee club gave Interesting num . bers, , ranging- from "Oh, Oregon." to "Nix, cn the Glow-Worm, Lena," with the curtain ringing down on a storm of applause f after, cac number.. ., While there are not any unusual -voices, the ensemble, work shows careful training. The Mandolin club claimed attention by their clever thrumming. Tiptop comedy was contributed by Messrs. Geisler, Curtis and Martin in their clever man ipulations as the Suffragette trio. Pic turesque costuming and some Idea of acting ability was displayed by . this smart trio, who were greeted with! up roarious laughter. V ' i ' j 1 . Professor Irving M. Glen sang after his own Inimitable ! fashion "Couplets Bacclquo" from Chamlnade, which was followed by any number of encores. Pro fessor Glen is always an Instant favor ite, and the regret was that his songs . . were so few. William Lai. a Japanese student, sang very effectively Clay's Til Slug Thee Songs of Araby." ' The feature of the evening was a sketch "At Dope Center," Introducing the Glee, club and individual members in ensemble and specialties. - "The Little : German Band" was one of ths hits among the specialties, while the sketch involved a. scattering of Jokes and gen tle comedy, t The plot had to do with - the-stramling of the Glee club at a village hotel and the appropriating by the manager of the best room in the house, leaving his colleagues to spend tlrt six hours' wait in the hotel office.

To the Edjtor of The Journal I was not correctly or adeouately reoorted In the interview published In The Journal of Friday evening. December Sth. 1 aid noi say I was going to get up a single tax law or that I was going to, make a sin gle tax campaign. . The Fels .Fund ' commission paid for the circulation - ofv more than 150,000 copies of Dr. Eggleston's pamphlet com paring the general property tax system and Its results with what would have been the results to Oregon taxpayers In 1910, If business and labor : had been free from state and local taxation, and if all suoh revenues had been couecr ed from a tax on the value of land, re gardless of Improvements; ' . , This is the tax on ground rents and ground rental, values proposed by Henry George. The advocates of. this system of taxation in Oregon ' decided nearly two years ago that they would present to the voters of the state, at the 1312 election, such measures as, if adopted, would completely free useful business and labor of all .kinds, and all their production, from state and local taxes in any form. ' Vsnoouver, B. C, prosperous, ; One of the purposes Of the Fels com mission In supplying funds to advocate organised labor's county borne rule tax amendment In the recent campaign Was to make it possible for the people, of any county to adopt, the single tax by majority vote at any election. The cfty of Vancouver, B. C does not levy any loea. taxes on' business or labor in any form. . All Improvements on lands, stocks of merchandise, money, notes, ac counts, mortgages and all products of labor, are now 'free ;; from local ; taxes in that city. The result is that It is by far the most prosperous city on the Pacific coast and is growing faster than any otuer city of Its age in the world, v The Fels fund of America was found-1 ed by Joseph Fels for the purpose of establishing the single tax. In one or More of the American states before 1914. The Fels commission Is assist ing such a campaign In Missouri and Rhode Island as well as In Oregon, , .1500 Contributor There are more than 1500 contribut or to this fund, giving all the way from $1 to 500 a year4 each for the period of five years. But the com mission . has not : confined Its efforts wholly to : tho single tax. It has also expended -T"mor8 than - 4000"ln 'aiding movements for direct legislation in Ar kansas, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Minnesota and other states. The advocates of the ground rent tax system propose to show to the people of Oregon within the next two' years that the single tax Is morally right, and that It Is the - only tax that is Justifiable from the standpoint of good uiurttufc , 1 . ' if In doing this they will at the same I time prove ' beyond a doubt that , the theory of :..., th general property ' tax, by which men are supposed to be as sessed and . pay taxes according to tnetr ability - to pay and In proportion to the amount of their savings. Is mor ally wrong and that In practice it. is Impossible to apply It fairly and equal ly to all the citizens. It Is for this purpose that the Fels fund wW help to . pay for the coming Oregon cam palgn. ..- .' - i- . .-: To Sals' Money Bora, ;'; - But, also, the members oi the com mission and single taiers generally, be lieve that the Justice of thk system and Its advantages to the community are so self-evident to any fair-minded man who studies the question that they expect very much of the money for the campaign will be raised In' Oregon. ,The management of the fund in "this state during the past 18 months has been in the hands of . a committee of seven approved by. thfc Fels commis sion. These men ; have taken counsel with many others before Incurring any considerable expenditure and then their proposals were approved by the mem, bers of the commission before action was taken. The plan of operation Is very similar In operation In MissoA-L Rhode Island, England, Denmark and other countries where Mr. Fels has founded . similar- funds Co advance the practical application Of the single tax principle. ." ... .. r .. Mr. Fels and Daniel Kief er, president of the American Fels Fund commis sion, expect to be lii Oregon about the last of next January and will prob ably remain several days looking over the state and meeting members of Its business and Industrial organizations. ; For an undertaking of so much diffi culty and Importance it is manifestly absurd for any man to say "I" will do thus and so. . For myself, I shall help In the movement to the extent of my ability. I believe the principle is just and right, and also that Its application will do more " to better the condition of ' the workers and business men of Oregon, and , all the useful , cltlaens, than has been ; done by all the laws that have been made by men, from the beginning of history until now. y W. TTBEN, building The. strike at the Teon building, of the SO bricklayers who refused to, go to work yesterday morning on account of the trouble with the tile "Setters' un ion, was temporarily settled yestei'day afternoon In a conference between the business agents of the bricklayers and the contractors on the work. The brick layers will be at work Monday. A decision in the case Is Jo be given later when more , time has been al lowed ' for an investigation of . the claim. The trouble grew out of the charges that tile setters yere doing work that should be done only by he bricklayers. - Ten tile setters, who have been employed, will not return to work until after ' another conference. They left the building Friday- because, cer tain scaffolding that was being erected for them was not completed, but had the trouble not occurred work would have been started tomorrow.' r v SEES WEEK'S WORK YET ' ON MADISON BRIDGE : "I don't believe that they will have, the Madison bridge ready for another week," said President B '-.'" 8. Josselyn of ,the Portland Railway, Light & Power company, yesterday, after having tajcen a walk over the structure. "Many ltt- Thfy Tausfnbe atlentfed To before the bridge Is thrown open for traffic. . I was-anxious to see the. bridgeopened tomorrow because It would relieve the congestion of traffic over the Morrison bridge, but I do not see how it caa be accomplished in less than a woek" STRIKE ON YEON wmm; VICTORS Eddie Root Wins Long Grind by .

The time of the de ciding mile was :5S 1-5. ' The hoodoo adherents were mystified at the finish, .for Root bore unlucky "13" on his sweater and still won. The team of Rutt and Clarke wound up as the real favorites of the crowd. Their regaining of three laps yesterday morn ing satisfied the crowd that they were game and persistent..

With the Idea of eliminating the present big deficit Letters sent to general delivery are now kept for 30 dars. This necessi tates frequent rehandling. takes uo val. cable space and generally increases the work of . the' 'clerks. ; In cases where the return on the velope specifies 10 days or' 30 days the letter will be held that space of time. : Otherwise it will be returned to the sender or to( the dead letter office. Another change besides those orevi- ously announced In handling registered matter is that In the future a registered package or letter may be left with any responsible party at the address given instead of only with, the party to whom It Is addressed.. :, . a.w-vv.Bv v, i.uau , IUV1 111 the CltV Of New Tork lant vnv itm th highest on record. , . .
