Grsnts Pass Oltf ing Visitors Invited 09tf An Appeal to the Voters of Oregon 'I’lie Port of Portland Dock Commission Consolidation Bill on the state ballot should be de feated. While it n doubt affects the whole state in some degree, the enormous expense which it will created must be borne by the taxpayers of the Port of Portland, which contains, 209 square miles, or less than one quarter of one per cent of the area of the state. The Chamber of ( t 'oininerce, ommeree, me the Taxpaye laxpayt league League anti and otner other i Portland ortlanu organizations and many representative business men have joined hands to acquaint the voters of Oregon with the facta and to enlist tlu-ir opposition to the measure. 'I’lie scheme of improvement proposed by the bill will cost $40.000.000. As a starter, $16,- - mj O.OOO of bonds are authorized. In violation of the home rule provision of the Constitution of Oregon, the vote» of th« Port of Portland are denied the right to say horn large a debt they are willing to assume. Nop are they given a voice in the selection of the commissioners who are to vote bonded debt upon them, levy taxes for them to pay and manage their business. The electors of the territory within the Port of Portland are better qualified than any one else to judge of the amount of bonded debt they should authorize or the taxes they should' pay. Their liberality in assuming burdens of public improvement, not only for themselves, but for the state at large will not be questioned by any one who will scan the record of the huge total of bonds they are now carrying, amounting, in round figures to $34,000,000. It cannot be thought that the state will be (he gainer by impo ing upon its chief city the insupportable load of addi tional debt contemplated by the pending bill. 'I’lie sponsors of the Port of Portland bill have openly appealed to the electors of the state at large to vote for it on the ground that it will cost them nothing. This is log rolling of the most dangerous type. If such methods are to prevail in behalf of direct legislation, no county, city, port or other municipal corporation in the state will be safe from having intolerable debts anti taxes foisted upon it by indifferent votere from other parte of the state. Bills like this must be rejected by the voters if bom«- rule is to retain its vital force. Home rule and such bills cannot, survive together. One or the other must fall. The votere of the Port of Portland are not asking to be relieved of their responsibility to create and maintain the necessary facilities for ocean commerce. They desire only that they be given a voice in the management of their affairs, and that, through the established processes of law, they be permitted to adopt a plan of port development which will not load millions of dollara of debt upon them. Voters are requested to vote 311 No. JOSEPH N. TEA! HENRY E. REED A. J. GJ ESY HENRI LABBE R. L. GLISAN F. W. MULKEY Paid Advertisement by Taxpayers’ League of Portland. A. II. DEVERS J. N. TEAL.
