How much better is it for the public to have tho timber in the hand of private ownors who protect it from fire and pay these taxes, rather than in the hands of the G-ivernmenl or state ami untnved? In Tillamook County the timber owners pay ST per cent i-f all tho taxes.

Brumby, a Portland timber man and director of the Lumbermans National Bank of Portland, showing the average tax paid on timber lands in Clatnop, Col umbia, Washington, and Tillamook coun ties, covering the levies from 1905 to 19 12. Mr.BruTiby declares that the figures refute the claim that has been made by advocates of single tax that Oregon timber lands are not paying their just proportion. "In 1905 the average tax paid for each suction of timber on a body em bracing holdings in Clatsop, Columbia, Washington and Tillamook counties," said Mr. Brumby, "was $110.15. The tax has risen regularly every year and the average paid per section for the same body of lan i has been: In 190C, $130.33; in 1907, $119,80; 1908, $240,80; 1909. $250.31 ; 191'), $300; 1911, $303 05; 1912, $-118.99. "Canadian timber is taxed $140 per section. Compar.- t iia w't'i $118.90 per section, and you will sei what an ex cessive burlon our timber owners car ry. The tax makes in impossible for a poor man to hold timber, and it U this condition that is forcing tho cen tralization of ownership of timber tracts into strong hands. In Tillamook County, where the timber is remote from settlements, the average is $115.-1 20 per claim of 100 ucres. The 1911 tax I in Columbia county averaged $270 for each quarter section. In Columbia Co unty tho timber is closer to tho settle ments und special taxes have been levied for roud and school purposes, "Comparing tho tax on timber lands and 2 blk 27 Tohls 2ml addn $2ft0.
