mitteemen last evening but his nlnn.
for the ball room were not exactly as
wished and he was Instructed to pre
pare others. With the plans definitely
determined upon and the finance cam
paign mapped out the committee will
start at once to secure the funds ne
cessary ror the construction of the
building. Whether second mortgage
oonas or stock subscriptions will be
employed has not yet been deter
mined. The committee Is now plan
nlng on making the top floor Into a
ball room of artistic beauty, feeling
mai mere is a demand for such a
place. This room could be used not
only for dances but for afternoon par.
ties and for lodge meetings as well.
A dome celling Is being considered.

ANOTIIF.lt MASS MEETING TO I1E

TONIGHT.
Evidencing the Interest Pendleton
people are taking In the Initiative and
referendum measures on the ballot
for the November election, an audi
ence gathered at the court room of
the court house last evening that
overtaxed the capacity of the room to
hear the Issues discussed by leading
citizens. Short announcements of
the meeting were made In the papers
and the roaponse was so great that
there were not seats for all. Inas
much as only about half of the 29
measures could be taken up during
the two-hour meeting last evening,
another meeting will be held this ev
ening at the same place and same
hour to discuss the balance.
Judge Stephen A. Lowell presided
over the meeting last evening and
the speakers were Circuit Judge O.
W. Phelps, Prof. A. C. Hampton. As
sessor C. P. Strain and C S. Ter-j
penlng Tonight these same men and
probably District Attorney Frederick
Stelwer, Supt J. S. Landers and Supt
I. E. Toung will load the discussion.
The public is Invited to attend.

GEORGE H. BISHOP
caxdidati: nii
Representative 22nd District
I'MVULLA .VXD MOItKOVV COIXTIFS.
is positively against the ir.mifd amendment to the Cnr.stitutinn t Oregon,
referred to the people by the Legislative Assembly, which has for its purpose
the changing of the existing rule for uniformity and equality of taxation. - J.
V. Tallman. president of the Pendleton Commercial Association. County
JudKe J. V. Maloney. and County Assessor C. P. strain, have written a strong
argument in the "Voters Pamphlet" against the proposed amendment and it
is found on page 1 thereof. They asjree with Mr. Ilishop in his opposition
to the proposed amendment, which has been heretofore defeated twice by
the people. If this amendment should carry it would open the door for the
rich public wrvlce corporations, timber batons, power companies and other
large Interests, to shape legislation entirely In their interest in the legis
lature and work a great hardship upon the farmer, the merchant and other
individual tax-payers.
Itobert N. Stanfield, Mr. Bishop's opponent, has gone on record in favor
of this proposed amendment which the common people believe to be vicious.
Voters who know Mr. Stanfield's action in this matter are surprised that he
would be in favor of it.
The assessed valuation of property in Umatilla County Is about I4..nnn.
OdO.dO. f this amount the public service corporations are assessed at 112.
000. (too. more than twenty-five per cent of the taxable property in the
county This property consists largely of railroads and railroad properties
$260,000.00 of the taxes paid to Vmatilla County this year were paid by these
public utilitit-s. If this proposed amendment advocated by .Mr. Stanfield
should carrv. the legislature would have It entT'-ly in its power to take the
.right fr.trn t'malilla County to tax these public servire corporations and might
very casilv denrive the people of I'matilla County of the use of most of this
0f 000 00 This amount of taxes would necessarily have to be made up by
a higher taxation of all other property and this would fall entirely upon the
farmer, the merchant and other Individual taxpayers and increase their taxes
about t'wentv-five per cent, and the Lord Knows their fixes are already ex
tremely burdensome. In any event the legislature would have It entirely
within Its power to cause a net loss to Vmatilla County each year on account
of such legislation about 1 1 r.0.000.00.
The taxable property in Morrow County is assessed as follows: Public
utilities I . 7 7 1 . o -i 7 : all other property. IS.990.7TS. Total taxable property
$1 l.tl.K30 00. Therefore, it will be seen that about twenty-three per cent
of the taxable property in Morrow County consists of public utility property,
largely railroad property. ... ,
To deprive Morrow County of the right t collect the taxes from these
ftublic utilities would add greatly to the burdens of the other tax-payers as
will readilv be seen.
Now. Mr. MmifleM. Instead of looking after the interest of the tax-payers
In bis diKtrict, h:. given his sanction to a scheme that would almost bank
rupt both Umatilla and Morrow Counties. About twenty-three per cent of
Morrow CountVs wetilth nrd about twrttv-five per rent of Umatilla County's
wealth ns shove indicated, r onsists of railroad and other public utility prop--rt;
yet Mr .ctttnfleM supports a proposed amendment to our constitution
that' has as its object the surrender of this right of taxation to the Mate for
exclusive state taxation, thereby depriving the two counties of a right which
thev have alwas bad unlr the constitution.
The actual net loss to Umatilla County would exceed, at the lowest calcu
lation, more tbun I100.o00.v0 and Morrow County would suffer a like pro-
,Mr,Klguring the matter up let us see some of its practical effects. The larg
est loss to the people would be n railroad cities and towns The schools In
Jhcse places would suffer feverely; It would practically ruin the high school
!,... iv,. counties where the schools are built upon railroads.
The town of Kcho receives about $3oo no annually taxation from these pub
lic utilities- Manfield about Jl'4'to 00; Hermiston about J3'.00.OO. Bnd so on
down the line. The uHae of th's proposed amendment would rause the
Mchool district-, through which th railroad run to suner gre;m on smiuni
ml the loss of the m-.nev received from this rource of taxation The other
vroperty owners in the school districts would simply have to make up this
,m bv nn Increased taxation of their property to that amount.
The passage of this amendment advocated bv Mr. ctarfiel.. would cause
each session of the legislature to be attended by a powerful and Insidious
Vl.bv maintained bv the railroad, timber kin" power companies nd other
Ich 'concerns In their intcre.-t and they would practically own and control
I... li-tf IkImI tire ertcll session.

FOOTBALL SITUATION IS
DISGUSSEO AT H. SCHOOL
Forty-seven football men of Pen
dleton high remained for a general
meeting In the auditorium this morn
ing after assembly, to discuss the
present football situation. Principal
Hampton and Professor Lanlers led
the meeting, and all were invited to
express their opinions.
Mr. Livingston who has been act
ing as coach, was unanimously chosen
by the fellows to coach for the re
mainder of the season and all de
clared their Intention of giving him
the best support possible.
Captain Brock explained the sit
uation in regard to the new and in
experienced men and general light
weight of the team, declaring that
the whole success of the team de
pended upon their loyal support of
the coach and hard work In careful
training In plays and physically.
Stress was laid upon the Import
ance of the second team In the devel.
opment of the first, and as a rule
the general feeling of all Is to that
effect.
The boys are In for hard work and
are determined to stand behind the
coach fn a great effort to make
ground In the coming contests with
Baker City and La Orande and all
teams they are scheduled to meet. I
