A b.liit meeting of the Salem Board
of Trade and citizens of Salem was held
at the Hotel Willamette on the 27th
lust, for the nuroose of taking some
action upon the Christmas letter ad
dressed to President Cleveland by the
. - f .... 1 ...Lint. 1 WUU
governor oi vregun, iu wuiuh
stated that about three-quarters of a
million of Oregon's population were
out of an employment and 100,000
more were In destitute circumstances.
At the meeting the following resolu
tion was unanimously adopted:
Whereas, The governor of the state
of Oregon has abused the official posi
tion couferred upon him by the people,
by addressiug to the president oune
United States a letter otntuinmg cer
tain Btuterucnt Injurious to the com
monwealth and calculated to create an
erroneous impression in the minds of
those not acquainted with the tacts,
thereby deterring those who might
contemplate engaging In profluctive
Industries here, therefore:
Resolved, that we, the board oi trade
and business men of 8alem, most era
r haticallv deov the assertions of the
governor aud brand his statements as
false, and aver that notwithstanding
the prevailing depression, there is no
widespread destitution or actual want
In Oremm. and that the eoveruor in
claiming two-thirds of our people are
without employment wnue one-iniru
are without means of subsistence, was
guilty of gross misrepresentation and
we request our repicsentttiive in-twn--gress
to present these resolutions to the
President of the United States, and to
deny in both senate aud house the
truth of the governor's statemeutt.
While admitting that Oregou is suf
fering from prevailing hard times, we
confidently claim that there Is less pov
en v here, in nrouortiou to the popula
tion, than iu any state In the Union
and the prospects for the future are ex
cellent."

Tilt) slate hoard f equuliwiltoii . has r
been in nesshtll Iu Hulein fur several ;
days, Oh Tuesday the board spaut
the entire day with assessments on
town lots, and the result of Its labor
is the following permanent equalization:
Assessment raised 10 per cent In Ba
ker, Clackamas, Jackson, Jow phiue,
Klamath, Lake, Linn, Polk and V.im
hlll, 20 per cent In Clatsop and Wash
ington; reduced 10 per cent in Coos mid
Marion, IS per cent in Sherman and
20 per cent iu Columbia. i "
On agricultural lands the assess!?" '
was reduced 10 per cent in Ma
county, raised 10 per cent in MulV
man and Washington counties, a,.
raised 20 per cent In folk county, in.
the remaining counties the assessment
was left as arranged hy the county
boards of equalization.
By this action the assessment of
Linn county Is raisedj!15T,022., County
Judge Duncan, Assessor Deakins anal
others were before the noard and V
pointed nut the injustice of raising the '
assessment on town lots in Linn conn-
ty, without avail. If those gentlcuen
will come un this tvav thev can buy
town lots for less than they want them
assessed at. A little judgment is re
quired of men even to act on the board
of equalization.
