Kelso Stilt Undecided, but
Likely to Join Longview
in New Circuit
The proposed Oregon-Washington
baseball league was practical
ly a certainty Sunday following a
meeting at Longview. Leo "Fris
co" Edwards, manager of the Sa
lem Senators, reported on his re
turn. A meeting to elect officers
and decide upon a name for the
league will be held at Portland
February 17.
The only matters left slightly
uncertain are the participation of
Kelso, which Is still casting a few
wistful glances in the direction of
the old Timber league, and wheth
er Nicolai or Mt. Scott would be
the second Portland team.
All Clubs Strong
Clubs certain to be Included are
Longview. ' Salem, Albany and
Montavilla, and no matter what
other clubs are included, it will
be a league without any weak
clubs, it was declared by Edwards1.
That will mean that Salem must
support a better team than it put
out last year. Edwards pointed
out but at the same time it will
pive this city better advertising
than participation in any of the
leagues of recent years, and thert-fo-e
will be worth the money ex
no'nded. aside from the fact that
Lisher class baseball will be pro
vided for the fans here.

Reforestation Program to be
Launched If Senate
Passes Measure
( font iiiiicd from riK 1.)
would unless a program of
forestation were adopted.
re-
Mr. Jiobison's plan, i-i
provides for reforestai i'
t he direction of the :ta e
brief.
it nder
board
of forestry, with which owners of
the land will enter in contract.
Tile owner agrees to pay a fee
of five cents an acre while the
timber is growing and will pay
an ad valorem tax of 1 2 per
cent when the timber is harvest
ed. During the growing period
the land will be exempt from reg
ular ad valorem taxes. The con
tracts will provide that in the
event the owner desires to take
any products from the land he
will then have to pay ad valorem
taxes, or if he fails to pay the
reforestation fee. the land be
comes delinquent and is assessed
at the ad valorem rates again.
Under such an act, it is de
sired, owners will be stimulated
to hold their lands, assist with re
forestation and eventually the
state will gain in the tax when
the products are harvested.
.Numerous Objection
Raised During Debate
Many objections were inter
posed during the argument. Rep
resentative Angel of Multnomah
declared that the law made no
provision for timber lands now
partly matured, and others point
ed out that the proposed measure
left loopholes so that much pro
perty now on tax rolls of various
counties could be taken off.
Motion was made during the
discussion to refer the measure
back to the committee for amend
rents so that no objections such
as those above could be raised,
but others objected to this declar
ing that though the law was not
perfect, it should be passed, and
that there would be ample oppor
tunity to amend it In the senate.
It passed with but eight "noes,"
those of Representatives Angel,
Chllds. Egbert, Fisher, Lockwood,
Malarky, Metsker and Potter.
Speaker Hamilton h m a e 1 f
turned over the chair to Mr. Lon
ergan and took the floor in behalf
of the bill. He declared that he
was not satisfied with the mea
sure as it now stands, but that he
believed in the principle of the
bill, and felt that amendments
lould be made later. The pro
ponents gather momentum as the
afternoon wore on. and what was
figured as a close vote or a pos
sible defeat was turned Into an
overwhelming victory.
