tltS rC'puWlciiiifi at ihd slaU c6.Uent.on
in Portland on t Wednesday, April loth,
adopted as part of their platform the fol
lowing ptank:
Eighth That we are in favor oi a fair
and equal distribution of taxation and we
believe that all property not now exempt
v law should contribute its due propoition
In payment of legitimate expense of the
government. 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. The
following table shows his li oldings, the
amount assessed at and actual market
value of it, showing how his less wealthy
neignbors who hold property in Multno
mah county and through the state are
compelled to assume the burden he sh.it

But On Lordy, the following year 18S4'
either through an over tight in not deduct
Inj; any Indebtedness or because of an un
friendly feeling on behalf of the assessor
of tills county, or because the Lord pros
pered hltn exceedingly during the past
ye-tr, his assessment was $i3S,0sO. Hut
he equalized it the following year, 1SS5, In
which year he lost a little over ?roo.oiJ.
(And this wa not the year In which the
bond, were stolen) for in ikS5 his asse,,-
ment was only 17.200. In 1S&6 It wat
tSO.OOO In 1SS7 101,000. But between 1887
and 1SS8 hit worldly goods increased only
by fg.OOO. But that year was a bad year.
It was the year he was receiver of the
Holilday estate, but from iSSS to 1SS9 It
must hava been quite a prosperous year,
for hs actually must have made J 5, 000 In
that year. A very large amount of money
to make in one year, but there was one
transaction in that year which is said
