That we are in favor of the adoption of such amendment to our as sessment laws as will secure the equal and just assessment and taxation of all property at Its true value. In order to carry out their virtuous ln , Wmions they nominate for governor Hon orable David P. Thompson, banker, money lender, and public spirited (?) citizen, who has acquired the hulk of his wealth by systematically dodging his share of taxa tion and compelling the less wealthy cltl- sens of Multnomah county and of the state to pay U for him. His assessment for tax ation for 1S90 in Multnoman county is $171,700 09 of which there is exempted as claimed by hl:r. for indebtedness $33,000. OO and $;oooo exempted by law.
