declared Walter M. Fierce, Democratic

here Thursday on current stats prob

Pfv years Ago Oregon undertook a
bonding plan as a result of whicH thre

millions of Irrigation bonds opon which
the state guarantees the interest for a
period of years, i -, ; -
"Oregon lias tne heaviest bonded debt
of any state In the Union, wealth and
population considered. The bonded in
debtedness of the state of New York,
with its Immense wealth and popula
tion, is only three times that of Ore
gon ; that of California only 50 per
cent greater.
"The cost of state government in
Oregon this year is more than f 15,000,
000, collected 'from a population of
only 800,000. Is it any wonder that
owners of tangible property in Oregon
feel the need for reduced taxation?
"Shame on you Walter Tooxe, for
traveling about the state as Republi
can state chairman trying to- arouse
party feeling when the farmers and
business men are struggling to find
some relief from the condition that
confronts them as a consequence of an
era of reckless spending.
"Shame on everyone who is or has
been: arousing religious hatred in an
attempt to aivide the good people of
this state at a time when they need
common action to effect lower- taxa

Th ; committee set about upon a
diplomatic campaign of education,'
since ft was' apparent that the board's
"conception 'of 'the insurance business
was decidedly limited.'" The commit
tee explained- to the board, according
to the report, the necessity of estab
lishing values on all of their proper
ties and . the- use of a 90 per cent co
insurance clause in Case of a blanket
policy.; Other , interviews followed, a
statement of values was secured and
the committee placed a rate of 60
cents for a three-year term as the low
est rate that could be hoped for. ;
ABEE 03T GBAInrO .jf. u
. In placing the $6,006,000 Insurance
on a blanket basis, "the question of
companies was discussed and the school
board agreed that there was no reason
why they should accept any companies
which were graded by Best less than
A-L . Because it was Saturday, it was
necessary to get fast action to secure
the necessary binders, and we, there
fore, listed aU companies with a grad
ing of A-l. divided the $6,000,000 value
approximately equally between these
companies and bound It In the office
of the nearest agent, .We decided the,
only possible way to divide this busi
ness equally among the various mem
bers of the exchange was to divide the
commission. We felt that it mattered
little what office wrote the business
so long as the companies grading A-l
were given an equal amount."
FIKE la BATS LATEE
Ten days later the Holladay fire oc
curred, the day the first binders ex
pired. -
"It was impossible for us to com
municate in detail with all the Insur
ance men in Portland," said the re
port, "and prove that our method of
handling the situation was the only
wise one to have followed. A few f
our agents, learning that a large
amount of school insurance had been,
placed, immediately appointed them
selves as committees of one, two or
more to protest because they had not
received some of this insurance. Also
a violent protest arose because of a
decision to limit the policies to compa
nies grading A-l or better."
"On March 4 the board placed an'
additional $2,000,000 insurance, which
expired on May 19, when the board
had decided upon the values of its
property. In the meantime the $6,000,
000 binders had been converted into
policies. It was decided that $8,142,000
insurance would be sufficient, and since
the board was already carrying $1,500,-
OOfl at different locations, an addi
tional $642,000 was needed.
BOARD'S IXSTKrCTIOJT
The school board instructed us to
divide this $642,000j
among all the
agents in the city
who ' were not at
that time writing policies on school
property, who were listed as B-2 or
better. This list of agents was fur
nished Clerk Thomas and he distrib
uted (tie insurance as he saw fit."
Then came the act of the board
taking the handling of the insurance
out of the hands of the exchange, and
dividing it equally among all agents.
as had all along been the Intent of
the board, but which aroused the ire
of the exchange members.
"Under date of May 31."' said the re
port, "Clerk Thomas Issued a letter
presumably to all local agents regard
less of their affiliation with the ex
change, advising them to cancel any
insurance they might then be covering
as of June 15, and write $41,000 under
the new blanket form as of this same
date. This action was taken by the
school board through Clerk Thomas
without consulting with the committee.
The forms were also printed without
giving' the committee proper opportu-
nlty ito. proofcead j tiem-u-Txv-. comply
with the board's letter. It will be nec
essary to cancel a large amount of the
$6,000,000 Issue of Insurance short rate
and possibly collect short rate pre.
miums on all of the $2000,000 Issue.
This short rate cancellation of the $S,
000,000 alone will cost the ' board ap
proximately $6500 in -addition to 'their
regular- premium had policies been
allowed to stand as Issued. J
r This seems a needless-1 waste f
money. Hdwever, we . assume the
school board knows exactly what it
wishes to. do.

, "The coat to the board of failing to
follow out our original plan win be
closer to $10.00 than $6500." said Mll
11 man this morning. "The $6500 is
merely a1 minimum. Brat Woodward
knew that, perfectly well when he
made this change, which was done
just before the school election.
'Tne board might be able, by send
ing a man .to San Francisco, as he
suggests, to make some negotiations,
but the companies are 'all represented
in Portland, and I can see no use, when
the board has already wasted so much
money, to go to the expense of send
ing a man to San Francisco. He can
do nothing In San Francisco that can
not be done here,

FISHING SEASON
TO CLOSE TODAY
Astoria. Aug. 25. With a pack esti
mated at about 260,000 full cases and
about 1500 tierces of mild cured salmon,
tne spring usning season closed today
at noon. " f ,
This is less than the pack of last
year, which makes It the lowest in
many seasons, but as a. whole,, the i
season has been more satisfactory than
last In that the almost two million dol
lars, paid by packers for fish, has been
distributed among gill netters, seiners,
trap operators and trollers, instead of
a large amount of money being taken
away from the atate by purse seiners.
The pack this season was saved
from greater diminution by reason of
the strong early run of Blubacks.
About sixty thousand cases of this fine
fish were packed. and about five thou
sand of steelheads. The estimated
value of the Columbia river pack this
year 'is little more than $3,500,000.
