DANGHIt OK THK TAX COMMM1SSION.
There Iiub been u commission nt work for the punt two years nt nn ox
penee or $9000 drafting nn entirely new set of taxation laws for us.
N'o ono knows what this oommlsslon has done for us. Their bills have
Hone through the legislature AUMOST WITHOUT KKADING UY THK
MliMDKHS.
They have entirely reconstructed the whole taxation system of the
atate, nud have probably crented a gnat deal of confusion.

To onp the ell max a state taxation commlsalon Is to be created vest d

It will take the rarnlng of the Salem water corporation, or the Dal

This oan all be done by the neswsora now. Hut the power vested In
tho state taxation commission la mttoh greater and MAKHS THKM DIC
TATORS TO ANY SUCH PIHCK OK PROPHRTY.
Such corjHtratlona cannot make up a favorable showing ot earnings
on their itooks to secure large Investments of capital for extensions, with
out being ponnllxed tor their enter prise.
THK FINDINGS OK THIS COMMISSION CAN THHOTTLK OR PRO
MOTK ANY HXTKRPRISK.
For lnstunee. In a few years the Salem Water Company will have to
build au entirely new plant, and may need a million dollars of money to
put In a plant sntlable for the Capital City and the atato Institutions.

ought to be waived In an undeveloped state like Oregon, beoauso Borne

Tho atate tax commission makes positions for a number of persons
who have college educations and oxpert abllltloa to soil to the people at
high prko. MUX ARK 1.Y1NO I.V WAIT AT SALRM TOR THK

What da they cere for the development of the state? Salaries and per

Not one of this professional olass ever established au Industry, over

Under those circumstances, of course, the tax commission goes.
