Thompson at Baker Boosts Road Bonds Member of Highway Commission Prom, lies to Try to Put Through Improve ment of Baker-Cornucopia Boad. Baker. Or., March 21. Wl Lair Thompson of Pendleton, member of the state highway commission, addressed three meetings here Tuesday under tho auspices of the Baker Commercial club, advocating passage of the road bond measure. Mr. Thompson took occasion to deny the statement of Senator Strayer that the so-called paving trust was behind the bond agitation. He said failure of the passage of the measure would do away with the improvement of estab lished post roads. He promised to use his efforts to have the highway from Baker to Cor nucopia designated as a post road for I wish to call the attention of the public to the fact that the above table was compiled from a report given the :v1ontavllla board of trade by the city auditor. The first assessment was the only one based on a flat rate; and please t.ote that more was collected than was disbursed. Since there were 15,280 lots, this excess was a trifle more than one cent per lot. The first and second assessments $181,240.60, more than cover the cost of stem and the sewer in Laurelhurst, of which the divisions east of Laurel hurst paid $144,740. In other words these divisions paid the full cost of the stem, $127,963.55, and $16,776.45 on Laurelhurst's portion, making a double injustice, as Laurelhurst immediately reaped the. benefit at $36.37 per lot. while the outlying districts had to wait and still pay a higher rate. No. 6 reach-1 ing an average of $56.58 .ot. Please note the Injustice as to di visions: No. 3 paid $15.70 from Forty first street to Twenty-first street on Stark street; No. 2, while Nos. 4, 6, 6 and 7 paid $5.20 from Forty-fourth street to Twenty-first street. Then on Flxty-first street extension, from GU san to Forty-fourth street. No. 5 paid $20, while Nos. 6 and 7 paid $7.75 from Willow creek to Forty-fourth street oc the same assessment. Still greater in justice was found in canvassing- the district. In No. 4 assessments on trunk varied from $38 to $40, and on local trunk from $75 to $90. No. 5's differ ences were $17.50 to $55 on the trunk: No. 6's differences were $28 to $33 on trunk and $66 to $7o on local trunk. Local conditions were similar in each case. Then In the completed sewer the cost cf Inlets varied from nothing to $6.03 per lot, which does not spell justice, since the God of Nature lets it rain on all our lots alike. We asked for a reassessment and the council admitted mistakes had been made, but Commissioners0 Baker and Daly said "it would never do, because it would open up every sewer in the city for litigation." If we wanted Jus tice, go to the courts, they said. In view of the foregoing (and still other injustices), we asked the coun cil to give us an auditing, the account ant to be of our own choosing; but they refused, saying it would cost too much; still when a bill for checking Tanner creek sewer came in, giving three men each $50 per day for eight aays, amounting to $1200, not one word Of objection was raised. Section 389 of the city charter says: The council is authorized and em powered! to order to be constructed and laid al sewers and drains, with all nec essary .manholes, lamp holes, catch oasins and branches, etc.. and assess all lots specially benefited." We were assured time and time again that all assessments would be the same. Now benefits and assessments may be the same in a district, but benefits and contracts will not be the same, for contracts vary, but that does not change the benefits. The auditor says: "The same method of assessment Is used in all parts of the city and is considered legal." which shows the high priced property nevr pays Jits share of the cost, and this deficit is made up by the small home owners. a.

Wickersham Urges Military Training rormer Attorney General of United States Telia legislature Touth of XTation Should Prepare for War. Concord. N. H., March 21. (I. N. S.) Before a crowded gallery in the assembly chamber yesterday afternoon, George W. Wickersham, former at torney general of the United States, advised the New Hampshire legisla ture to advocate universal military training for the United States. He said this was the only adequate measure for national defense. "We are on the brink of war with a nation having 12,000,000 trained soldiers under arms," he warned. "The system of universal military service is the only true democratic principle. It will fit every able bodied young American to take up arms when needed in his country's cause and by giving him the benefit of a thorough military training will fit him for better citizenship and will tend more to the abolition of class prejudices and misunderstand ings than any other possible system. Gradually this Is becoming to be rec ognized by our people." Congressman Johnson Visits. Aberdeen, Wash., March 21. Con gressman Albert Johnson, who re turned last night to spend a few days in this congressional district before the special session April 16, today gave his opinion that the na tion is actually in a state of war now. Johnson predicted that the president will move fast now. feel ing that he has the sentiment 'of the country behind him. French Government Loan Is Announced Vew Issue of $100,000,000 Will Be Ab sorbed Quickly, Bay Vew Tork Bank ers and Pays 6 Per Cent. New Tork. March 21. (I. N., S.) After the stock exchange closed 'Tues day formal announcement was made of the new issue of $100,000,000 for the French government on a basis to net about 6 per cent. Benkers say this loan will be quickly absorbed as it Is backed with high-grade collateral. There is much question, however, as tp whether the United States, which is planning to issue loans in the near future, will be able to sell them at 3 per cent as the law provides. With other gqvernments not only pledging their national credit by put ting up collateral only getting money at 6 per cent the borrowing of money at 3 per cent by the American govern ment will be an astonishing demonstra tion of the credit of this country. University Faculty Would Serve Nation Chicago. March 21. (I. N.

"They have requested the board of trustees," he said, "to offer the science laboratory and equipment to the fed eral government. They have all of fered their personal services to per form any duty for which they are qualified." U. S.

Bingham of the circuit court for Ma rion county Tuesday evening rejected the ballot title prepared by Attorney General Brown for the Bean 'O. & C. land grant tax bill and adopted as a proper ballot title the original title to the bill as introduced in the legislature by Representative Bean This was a decided, victory for Beanr who expressed his satisfaction with the title he had prepared for the bill as It passed the legislature, which, will now be the ballot title. His bill is in opposition to the set of congress revesting in the govern ment title to the unsold lands granted to the 4-allroad company. Bill Streets Assessors. His bill, which is to be submitted to the voters at the special election in June, directs the assessors of the land grjtfit counties to place the lands on the tax rolls. In this way the bill supports the contention of the railroad, as against the govern ment, that the Chamberlain-Ferris congressional act revesting the title in the government is void and that the title to the lands still rests In the railroad company. For many years, and up until shortly before his election. Judge Bingham was attorney for the rail road company involved In the land grant litigation. Judge Bingham ruled that the bal lot title prepared for the Bean bill by the attorney general Is "insuffl cient in that It contains matter and recitals not found In the body of said measure. Pacts Are la Preamble. The statement of facts contained in the attorney general's ballot title are referred to in the preamble to the Bean bill, but Judge Bingham would not recognize that the attor ney general Jiad a right to mention anything In the ballot title which was not found In the body of the measure. The statement of facts to which Bean objected and which Judge Bing ham threw out was to the effect that "title to the lands has, by act of congress, been declared revested in the United States, after decision by the United States supreme court that the terms of nald grant have been vio lated. Said lands were granted upon condition that they be sold to actual settlers, not over 160 acres each, and not over $2.50 per acre." Attorney General Brown contended that the law imposing upon him the duty of preparing ballot titles directs New Tork. March 21. (X. N. S.)

The ballot title adopted by Judge -Bingham reads as follows: "A bill for taxation of O. & C. land grant Purpose Declaring and assert ing the sovereign right of the state of Oregon to tax certain lands known -as Oregon & California land grant and granted under certain acts of congresi; authorising, empowering and directing the listing of such lands on the assess ment rolls of certsln counties and pro viding for the listing of such lands on the 1916 assessment rolls of certain counties and relieving such counties from the payment of the state tax thereon until the same Is collected, by such counties.
