SA'm.DAY. .lANTARY (. 1!)17 PAGE FIVE ) E IS HI OF "Within fifteen tluys after the pas sage of the Hanson plan, should it he passed, the city of Medford will own two thirds of the homes of the city," stated W. C. Crewes, who opened the mass meeting for tho Me dynski forces at the Page theatre last night, . "Once the city Is In possession," he continued, "there will he no chanca for tho people to regain possession of their property, within the two years given for redeeming; Interest, pen ulty, and tuxes In the two years will amount to thirty per cent and you nil will lose your homes for good." A prediction even more direful ian the preceding was next made by Mr. Crewes, who stated that periodi cally these homes will be placed on the auction block and sold to the highest bidder. "And what will be vome of the man who makes his liv ing selling real estate "die shouted, "lie will bo practically put on; of. business until these homes have been entirely disposed of." This state ment wan followed by clapping loud and long from the assembled real es tate men. To Roublci Valuation. The tax rate of the city will riot he raised by putting the Medynski plan Into effect, Mr. Crewes explained. Vnder the Medynski regime a board of equalization will be appointed which with the assessor, will reas sess the entire city. A lot off the paving will bo assessed at J2.Y0 while a similar lot on the paving will pay taxes on a value of $500. This would brins the assessed value, he wild, to, $7,000,000, where he slated it should now he. In short, he pro posed not raising the tax levy, but doubling the valuation. This working out of, the tax situ ation putting the burden upon owner- of lots on the pavement followed Mr. Crewes' Btatement that the paving is more peculiarly community property even than the city wutcrplant and that the whole community should bear an equal part in tho payment thorefor. Settling Penalty Crime. ..The placing of a penalty for non payment under the Hanson plan Mr. Crewes characterized as a crime stat ing, "putting that penalty Into of foot would he the greatest crime in history . since Christ chased the money changers out of the temple." '. In spite, of the heat which Mr. Crewes had generated by this time, he managed to read a long list of questions which (he Mcdynskl adher antB demanded that the city attorney answer, following which ho gave over the stage to his partner-at-law, R. 13. MeCabe, city attorney. Mr. McCabe allowed In his treat ment of tho Hanson plan remarkable harmony with his partner's views. In fact, their, speeches might well have been given from the same set of notes, differing only in their delivery, Mr. Crewes speaking heatedly, while Mr. McCabo spoke in such a tone that listeners strained to hear themselves addressed as "Dear Brethren." Mr. MeCabe rehashed the state ments of Crewes adding that the city of Medford is In excellent financial shape, that her assets exceed her nubilities and that tho water plant alone could be sold for enough to pay the city's debts and leave a wide mar gin. McCabe Airs Gi-ievanccs, The remainder of his address Mr. McCabe devoted to an airing of his grievances against the city council, averring that ho had been neglected, abused and his advice disregarded. but that he served the people, who had to pay the bills. Following a solo of "Home Sweet UiHome" by Miss Hess Bryan, F. V. Medynski, originator of the Medynski plan and candidate for mayor, walked out on the stage wiping his eyes and proclaimed the sadness, that crept into his soul at the prospect of "the people" losing their humble homes. He followed this with his usual state ment of his deep Interest in the wel fare of the "masses" as against the "classes." Karl Fehl. the last speaker on the program, attacked tho conduct of the public market and explained his rea son for refusing to debate, as an aversion to having the Medford papers publish an account of the de hate, whli h he believes w ill be "hos tile" to (lie Medynski Interests. AMSTERDAM. .Inn. fl. A dispatch to the Rheinlsche WestphallbChe Zeltnng of Kssen from Berlin states that negotiations are proceeding at Lucerne, Switzerland, between repre sentatives of Austria-Hungary and Montenegro, Germany also being rep resented, with a view to the creation of a new south Slavonic state under Austro-Hungarian protection. Min ister Mirko of Montenegro. It Is added, will be the ruler of the new late. To the Editor: There seems to be a three-cornered fight in this man's town regarding the merits of the different plans, niul most every one is trying lo explain the values of the different plans, so why nut 1 Many of the best people of the city tire ranged on titlii'i' side. I might classify the three parlies ns the people's, the devil's mid the church. Justice for the pour home builders seems to be the object of the Medynski plan. Evasion of just tax ation and responsibility of my broth er's keeper and the repudiation of the great brotherhood of man seems to pervade the advocates of the devil's, or Hanson plan. The Commercial club mid the liusiness Men's nssoeiu- ion seem to oppose the Medynski plan they have become so obsessed in the chase for the almighty dollar that their hearts are hardened nguiust the cull for the relief of their distressed brothers. Now, here comes dear Pop Gales (every one loves Top Gates), but lie must have got the nutomohliu demen tia to join hands with the devil's forces. The devil must have taken him to the top of ltoxy Anne and showed him the whole world and part of Jackson county mid promised him llie agency of the entire Ford output if he would serve liim. I tini supreme ly sorry, but he could never be trust ed with the steering wheel again. And my friend, (lus Newbury, who was so ill that he could only lie in one posi tion (but 1 am pleased to know that he has so far recovered that he can lie easily in any position), poor Otis, he, too, lias gone wrong. The news papers that wo sustain linvc gone wrong, tempted by. Ihe thousands of dollars that they will get for adver tising forced sales if the Hanson plan prevails.- I'nder the present order of things the water plant, it a cost of $.1 per quarter, pays for its upkeep, and enough to pay interest on the bonds and leave a sinking fund besides. 1 he Medvnski plan leaves this undisturb ed; the Hanson plan provides that all the bonded indebtedness shall lie in a general bond indebtedness. The wa ter bond debt is about one-third (this may not be tpiite correct, hut answers by illustration) ; the water rates at $5 per cpiartcr pay Xor all expenses connected therewith. Now, if under the Hanson plan the bond .debt is covered by a general obligation bond, then the higher-ups will let the water rates be augmented enough to pro vide for all bond issues, so if the present rales pay one-third of the debt we will increase the rate by three and make a rate to consumers of $1.1 per quarter, or about $1.2") per month for a lot fiOxlOO feel, then that would pnv all bond debt and we (Hun- .sonites would be exempt from taxn tion on bond account, and the man with $10,000 worth of property would be exempt, and the home builder with a lot fiOxlOO feet would pay as much as the $00,000 mnn with a lot the same size. And it is so easily col lected water rales are inexorable you pay promptly or your water is shut off. What home-builder or working man paying for his homo on the install ment plan, could ever stand it. l:n dec the present sanitary conditions no family could live without the water for twcntv-l'our hours, yet it would be liav up or your water would he shut off. This affects the man off the pavement as well as on. I iniphire all laboring men to pro tect themselves by voting "no" on the Hanson plan and "yes"' on the Me dynski plan. Yours for the right, J. S. IIOWAHI). EARLY SETTLEMENT POKTI.AXIV Or., Jan. 0. Pros pects for an early settlement of the shipbuilders' strike at the Northwest Steel company plant, one of the two shipvarns affected, were bright to dnv, according to both union laborers and company official-.. At a confer ence today Pre-idcnt Howies of tin Northwest company submitted n ten t.'itive wage scale which union men said might form a working basis for agreement. The men's answer on the pro(iosition may lie reached by to night, they said. (tv common consent the closed slioj wax not mentioned. President ltoivles told the strikers that n closed sho) wage similar lo scales effective Seattle and San Francisco, which was one of the union's demands, whs, in the main, lower than Hie scale sub nulled today. WASHINGTON, Jan. 0. The do mestic output of quicksilver in 1910, according to preliminary figures col lected from the individual producers by II. 1), Mcl'askey, of the, Inited States geological survey, department of the interior, was 28.042 iTnsks of 7.1 pounds each, valued, at the aver age domestic price for the year at San Francisco '(estimated at ,$12.").'JU a flask), at :i,04:i,800. This was the greatest output in quantity since lUO.'i and not only the greatest in value since 187.1, but, excent the value of $4,228,.nl8 for that year, was the greatest in the history oi' Ihe do mestic industry, dating back to 1H10. Compared with the survey's final fig ures of output tor 101.1, which gave a production of 21,0.111 flasks, valued at $1,820,012, the preliminary figures for 1910 show an increase of 7009 flasks, or 38 per cent, in quantity, and of $1,810,888, or 99 per cent, in value. , The productive states, named in or der of rank, wore California, Texas, Nevada, Oregon, Washington ntid Arizona, all of which increased their output except Nevada, although Ari zona has produced only n nominal quantity to date and Washington had produced none prior to 1910. luci-easo in California. The output for California in 1910 was 20,,lfi(l flasks, valued at $2,f87,- 24.", as against 14,28:1 flasks, valued at .$1,1.74,881, in 191.". Quicksilver jji'ospccting and mining; were gener ally active in California in 1910, ami some of the large furnaces were worked profitably upon ores of lower grade than has ever been reported in the history of this industry. Many additions to plants, including experi mental forms of roasters and con densers and concentrating appliances, were brought into use in the effort not only to increase the output so as lo take advantage of high prices, hut u!m) lo try out new methods of reeov- rv while the industry could afford lo pay for experimentation. New tori plants were built at many of the smaller mines in California, as wcl us in Oregon, Washington, Xjvadn and Arizumi. Oregon nnd Washington, Tile combined production of Oregon nnd Washington in 1910 was 412 flasks, valued at $.11,870, against a nominal output from Oregon alone in 1915. In Oregon there was a considerable yield from the Black Butte mine in Lane county, reopened in 1910. In the Meadows district of Jackson county there was a small preliminary output from the Little Jean, Panier and Mrs. Dowey properties. In this district also a large nmnu'.i of devel opment work was done on the .Moun tain King property, which may be come an important producer when a reduction plant is built for tin ores. In Douglas county n small yield was made from the Bowers prospect, and elsewhere in Oregon there was lively prospecting for quicksilver ores. Highest lYiccs of Itjecord. Never before in the history of the industry have such prices been ob tained for quicksilver as in the first throe months of 1910. The average San Francisco domestic price for January was $222 per flask, and this rose to $29." tor February, during which some metal is reported to have been sold for .$100 a flask. The aver age declined to $210 in March, to $141.00 in April, lo $90 in .May, and to $74.71) in June. The price llien steadied, and from July to December the monthly averages did not fall be low $74.."0 nor rise above $81.20. The year ended with nn average for De cember of about $H0 per flask. RUSSIAN FORT CAPTURED (Continued From rage One.) sible by the Russian evacuation of the province. Jt is not only here, however, thai the Sereth line is threatened, for, de spite a tenacious defense by the Rus sians and Rumanians, Ihe line north westward beyond the Dozen river is not holding well against the Teutonic pressure, while the efforts to keep the Teutons in check in the Moldavian frontier valley is apparently proving still less successful. Imnerils Position. A break in this; line on the south erly front would inqicril Ihe Moldav ian frontier position, while the pierc ing of the frontier line itsrlT. not an apparent improbability, would endan ger the enlire line running soulliwet ward to the Danube. In thc-e ciicuiu-t!nocs coinini ntal ors in entente capitals are consider ing the possibility of the Russians being compelled to abandon the line of the Sereth and withdraw to the Russian frontier or beyond it to P.e-s-uriiijiu. (I IN OREGON 1916 IEI WASHINGTON', Jan. 0 Prelimin ary estimates of the production of metals from Oregon mines in 1910 by the Vuited States geological survey, department of the interior, show in creases over lOl.'i for gold, silver ami copper, and u decrease for lead. The output of gold in 191.") was $1,801,790 and the estimated output for 1910 is $1,900,0110, an increase of $118,000. The output of silver ill 11)1.1 was 117,- 9-17 ounces, and the estimated output in 1910 is 227,100 ounces, or 109,- iOO ounces more. The output of cop per in 1915 was 451,172 pounds, and the estimated output in 191.1 is 2,"i27,000 pounds, nn increase for 1910 of 2,070,000 pounds, and the output of lead in 191.1 was 02,9.17 pounds, as compared with 22,090 lounds in 1910, or 41,000 pounds less. These preliminary figures are compiled by Charles (1. Yah; of the San Francisfo office of the geolog ical survey. The increase in gold is merely nom inal, but that of silver has about dou bled. The most notable increase is in the quantity of copper, an increase caused by the incentive offered by high prices. lhere are less than a hundred pro ductive metal mines in Oregon, and the number of placers is about dou ble that of the deep mines. However, two-thirds of the gold output and vir tually nit that of the oilier metals, is derived from deep mines. No very productive new properties have been opened during the year. The entire output of the deep mines is derived from less than 100,000 tons of ore, having an average value of about $9 a ton. linker is still the most pro ductive county in the state, yielding annually nearly 00 per cent of all the gold. The Cornucopia and the Baker mines, in the Cornucopia district, Ba ker county, nre the most productive deep mines in Oregon. Other large deep mines in Baker county are those of the Commercial Mining Co. (Kaiii bow mine), at Kye Valley, in the Mor mon Basin district ; of the Coluuibi: Gold Mines Co. at Suiupter, Cracker Creek district ; and of Ihe Homestead Iron Dyke properly, at Coppcrfield, Iron Dyke district. The most productive " hydraulic mine in Oregon is that on Ihe prop erty of the Columbia Mines Co., in Placer district, Josephine eountv. Other notably productive hydraulic mines arc the Martin & Daniels, Oal ice district, Josephine county, and the Sterling, Jackson county. The gold won by dredging far exceeds that ob tained by all other forms of placer mining combined. Portland Livestock PORTLAND, Or.. Jan. (i. Hogs steady, receipts 407.
