Salem, Jan. 28 The emergency tax bill authorizes the governor, secre tary of state and treasurer to act as a board of equalization, with power to apportion the state tax among the counties according to what they find to be the true valua tion. The effect of the measure will be to make practically no change in the proportion of state tax each county will pay. Salem Govenor Chamberlain sent o the legislature Tuesday morning a tpeclal message advising Immediate enactment of an emergency tax law to take the place of the act declared unconstitutional. In speaking of the matter the governor said that in his opinion it would be necessary for the legislature to frame and pass a 5111 either making a levy or author zing the state board of apportion nent to make a levy for the year 1909. It is evident from this that Mult lomah, Columbia, Tillamook, Doug hs, Jackson, Josephine, Clackamas, Coos and Wallowa must pay the reatly increased tax which will be ipportloned under the uniform levy based upon assessed valuations. The burden will fall upon the counties as I whole, for the state tax is a debt from the county to the state. With 11 dissenting votes, members jf the Clackamas county delegation m the house succeeded Tuesday In aavlng passed their bill providing for an eight-hour workday in all manufacturing, mechanical, mercan tile and other establishments operat ing continuously 24 hours. Bills creating fully 200 new Jobs, many of them on fat pay, have Wun Introduced in the legislature, load ing up taxpayers with trore than $.l, 100,000 salaries and expenses for ike ensuing two years. -. Representative Hughes, of Marion, has Introduced in the house a bill making It possible for every county of the state to make its treasurer tax jolloctor.

ENTERPRISE, WAILLOWA COUNTY, OREGON, have ht.d any time left for my own business had I undertaken to get it for them. You have no idea how many people are looking in this di rection." Various; commercial bodies of Ore gon and Washington are planning to get out leaflets to be used as a letter of enclosure, emphasizing ths wonderfully low colonist rates from the East they are awaiting an nouncement of Atlantic coast and other points not yet decided by the passenger association of the trans continental roads. The $25.00 fare from Missouri river points, $30.50 from St. Louis, and $33.00 from Chi cpgo is the lowest named for three years. Revival In Joseph Methodist Church Rev. W. L.
