Fred Kire, of Marion county, has
raised the rate of assessment upon
railroad property from $19,000 to
JO, 000 per mile, and has fixed an
average valuation of about $65 per
acre cm the extensive timber holdings
In this county, IncludliiK the Oruon
& California, or Southern Pacific,
land Kinnt lands.
In raising tho values upon these
clnsses of property to the figure
quoted, AssiMsor Rice says he Is only
llviiiK up to the letter and spirit of
the law, which provides that property
shall he assessed to Its full value,
and ho does not believe the farmer
should be compelled to bear the
Krcnter portion of the burden of tax
ation, ,
In fixing tho value of $30,000 per
mile upon tho main line or the South
ern Pacific,, which includes rollliiK
stock, equipment, etc., he estlmnten
the real value at about $75,000 per
mllo, and may double this year's rate
next year, or fix It at about $60,000.
Those Increases are In proportion to
tno increases upon the property of
other corporations and Interests,
which will bring the total of the as
sessed valuation of the taxable prop
erty in the county considerably In
excess or $300,000,000, or about 25
ner cent Increase over that of last
year. Assessor Rico is understood
to' have the full membership, of the
ooard or equalization back or him.
An appeal to the courts seems to he
the only possible recourse of the cor
porations.
I he nssosHiuent upon timber land
In the county Is based upon a detail
ed estimate of tho amount of stand
ing timber on the land by an expert
who has been making a cruise. It is
computod nt tho rnto of 50 cents per
thousand feet, and - the valuations
will range betlwoen $20 and $75 per
acre. The Southern Pacific owns
42,205 ncres of timber land In the
southeastern port of the county,
which crulseB nt rrom SO, 000, 000 to
SO, 000, 000 feet per section, and Is
vii I nod at from $211 to $113 pet' 11 ore.
Prior to Inst year, when Assessor
ttlce raised the limits to $2.50 min
imum and $25 maximum, this enor
mous wealth In timber was assessed
at but $1.50 and $2.50 per acre.

BETTMAN LOT
SOLD TO THREE
EUGENE MEN
T. H. Garrett, Jesse 0. Wells and
M. O. Mitchell have purchased the
lot just north of the Mldgley build
ing, formerly occupied by the Bijou
vaudeville theatre, from G. Bettman,
of Portland, formerly of Eugene. The
purchase price is not given out, but It
Is Bald to be $10,000. This lot fronts
60 feet on Willamette street. Is next
to the alley and extends back 160
feet. An old tumbledown residence,
an eyesore to the business street,
now occupies the lot, and this will
probably be torn down soon. It Is a
splendid location for a business build
ing, and while tlje new owners have
not signified an Intention to erect
a building, it Is reasonable to pre
sume that It is their Intention to do
so in the near future. The lot Is
across the alley from the proposed
Sanford hotel building, which was
mentioned by the Guard last night.
REUNION GF ABBOTT
BROTHERS AND SISTERS
Pioneers Who Crossed Plains In J S.12
find Whose Parents Died l'hirotttc,
Will All Meet At Kugcne for Flint
Time Mince That Year.
S. Y. Abbott, of this city, and a
pioneer of 1852, will meet tonight at
tho local his brothers, W. S. Abbott,
of Humboldt county, Cul., wheni he
has not seen for 35 ycai'3, and John
G. Abbott, of Walla Walla, whom
he has not seen for ten years, and
will hold with his' sisters, Mrs. M.
Canady, of Madison, this county, and

tily khe.e elndurl ngtwoo n n ulreOe
ily reunion during the week One of
his Bisters saw W S. Abbott for the
last time in 18G3.
All of the rive children are pio
neers, crossing the plains from Mis
souri in 1852. On the way their pa
rents both died and the children ar
rived at Portland penniless. Since
that day they have never been under
the same roof together, though for a
time they saw each other frequent
ly. They were scattered to the four
winds and through three states.
8. Y. Abbott, the brother who lives
In this city, was only seven years old
at the time the children became sep
arated. In 1S72 he moved here from
California, and now, after 55 years,
the fnmlly of five children will lie
reunited. A reunion will be held
either hero In town or at the home
of one of the sisters. The two visit
ing brothers will probably remain a
month or longer visiting their kin
folk from whom they luivo been ab
sent for such a long time.
