The Marion county Anti-Monopoly League issues an address dealing with figures and alleged facts, and claiming that there is corrupt means being used to secure tho election of officers who favor monopolies and who may bo un duly influenced by the peculiar privi leges that monopolies are charged with conferring. It claims that three years ago there existed on the Columbia and Willamette nvcr3 a liue of transporta tion, with facilities sufficient to do the business of these routes. This prop erty was highly estimated at a value of 2,000,000, but was sold to the O. II. & N. Co. for $5,000,000. In addi tion to this purchase from tho 0. S. N. Co., by tho O. R. & N. Co., of the Columbia and Willamette routes, for which was paid $5,000,000, there was purchased b' the 0. R. & N. Co. the property of the Oregon . Steamship company, for which was paid 4,G77, 000, less $199,000 paid for real estate. This property consisted of the steam ships Columbia, Oregon, Elder and City of Chester, and the wharf and dock at Portland, altogether worth not to exceed $1,500,000, and for which was paid $4,478,000. The pur chase was made by a party who was manager of the company that sold and also of the one that purchased. This fact accounts for the amount paid be ing about three times the real value of the property. The amount of these purchases mado by the O. It. & N. Co. aggregated $9,747,000. while the true value thereof would not exceed $3,099,000. The. writers of the ad dress are of tho opinion that the peo ple should pass a law compelling each railroad company to furnish a detailed statement, under oath, of the actual coat of its works; and that its stock issue shall be cenSned to the amount so reported, on which stockholders shall be entitled to a dividend not to exceed ten per cent per annum mak ing a forfeiture of franchise the penalty for violation of such law.
