CASH PAID
An Appeal to the
Voters of Ore
The Port of Portland Bock Commission Consolidation Bill on the
state ballot should be defeated. While it no doubt affects tbe whole
state in some define, the enormous expense which it will create must be
borne by the taxpayers of the Port of Portland, which oontains, 809
square miles, or less than one quarter of on« per cent of the area of the
state. The Chamber of Commerce, the Taxpayers’ League and other
Portland organisations and many representative business men have join­
ed hands to aequaint the voters of Oregon with the facta and to enlist
their opposition to the measure.
The scheme of improvement proposed by the bill will oost $40,-
000.000. As a starter, $16,600,00 of bonds are authorised. In viola­
tion of the home rale provision of the the Constitution of Oregon, the
voters of the Port of Portland are denied the rig h t to say how huge a
debt they are willing to assume. Hor are they given a voice in the
selection of the commissioner! 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 a rt better
qualified than any one else to judge of the amount of bonded debt they
should authorise or the taxes they pay. Their liberality in *«**mi*g
burdens of public improvement, not only for themselves, bnt for the
state at large will aot be questioned by any one who will scan the
record of the hage total of bends they are now carrying, amounting,
in round figure* to $34,000,000. It cannot be thought th at the state
will be the gainer by imposing upon its chief city the insupportable
load of additional debt contemplated by the pending bill.
The sponsers 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 coiporation in the state will be safe from
having intolerable debts and taxes foisted upon it by indifferent voters
from other parts of the state. Bills like this must be rejected by the
voters if home rule is to retain its vital force. Home ride and such
bills cannot survive together. One or the other must fall.
The voters of the Port of Portland are not asking to be relieved
of their responsibility to create and maintain the necessary facilities
for ocean comment. They desire only that they be given a voice in the
management of their affairs, and that, through the established proces­
ses of law, they be permitted to adopt a plan of port development
which will net load millions of dollars of debt upon them.
Voters are requested to vote 311 Ho.
