Oregon Building, P. P. X. E., Dec. 2
In appreciation of the hearty co-oper
ation of the Sail Francisco awt Oak
land newspnper men in the effort to
bring Oregon to the attention of the
exposition visitors, the Oregon commis
sion ?ave a banquet at tho Hotel bt
Francis, Friday night, at which twen-
ty-livo notables were present, loin
inissioncr t . lj. tiawlev, resilient com
missioner on the job just now, heard
more kindly things about Oreogn and
Oregon participation in tho exposition
than he ever imagined any bunch of
men could sav, and he was made to feel
that tho Oregon commission and the
men in charge hero certainly had ac
complished tremendously for Oregon,
(icorgo id. Hyland, managing secretary
for the -commission, presided at the
banquet and with others voiced Ore
gon's sincere appreciation of 'tho gen
erous treatment accorded everything
of interest to Oregon. In turn, tho
newspaper fellows told of the pleas
ure that had been theirs in helping
men striving so sincerely and energet
ically to give the exposition the best
thnt a state could and get tho most
that was possible for their state iu re
turn. Kellogf, of tho Call-Post, urged
a continued good fellowship between
tho states of California and Oregon,
uud ably told why this should bo so.
Congressman Knowland, of the Oak
land Tribune, made a strong address
along the same line. Manager Furay,
of tho United Press, pointed out that it
was easy for Oregon to get lots of
space because Oregon was always do
ing something worth while. A dozen
others talked in like vein, and all wore
particularly happy in expressions to
ward Manager llylaud, whom they pro
claimed to be the one man above all
others who had won his way to hearts
of all and made impossible for Oregon
to stay in the limelight at the exposi
tion. Paul J. Itniney , secretary to
Mayor Kolph, wno represented him on
this occasion, voiced one of the most
glowing tributes ever paid any man, a
tribute to Mr. Hylnnd in which every
inn "resent gave enthusiastic acquies
cence. The finale of the occasion was
a toast by Commissioner Ilawley in
which he voiced one of tho most ap
pealing sentiments ever heard at ihe
St. Francis, ' ' Here 's to you my friends
may you live a hundred years just to
drive dull care away in this human
valo of tears. And I, too, would live
a hundred years, a hundred years less
a day, for I would not care to be on
earth when you havo passed away."
Tho occasion was fraught with good
fellowship and will go far toward e'e
monting the happy relations formed
between Oregonians and Californians
during the exposition.

Hop Association's Lack of
License Is Now Big Question
Portland, Ore., Dec. 2. Questions of
the legality of the Oregon Hop Grow
ers' association is 'being rnised now
that tho organization is being reported
to he takiug in its hops.
The question arises from tho fait
that tho association is alleged to carry
no government brokerage license.
Whether ono is needed or not is what
government officials here aro about to
investigate. The problem has arisen in
tho trade as to whether the associa
tion's business would be legal if a gov
ernment license iB needed.
Tho trade -is divided as to its ideas
in tho matter; some contending thnt no
license is needed but others nssert that
tho association demands a certain com
mission on its sales and therefore must
(d)tnin a permit.
I here is but little doing in the hop
trade at this time; the dealing being
mainly between brokers. Rulph Wil
liams who has been ono of the duet
operators for several months, although
buying through other brokers, said yes
terday that he had cleaned up all his
deliveries for the season. Mr. Williams
made a big bunch of sales to English
interests some time ago and practically
all his contracts called for prime hops.
The result was that the market was
often forced higher by thoso who had
sold ahcrt to him and certain quality
was demanded. Mr. Williams shipped
0,000 bales to England alono during
September and October. .
It is now stated that 43,000 bales
hnvo been shipped out of tho state
since tho season started, leaving 57,000
bales unsold in nil hands.
Julius Pincus purchased 140 bales
from dealers at 8e to 10 l-2c a pound
and Harry L. Hart purchased two loads
aggregating 80 bales.
Potatoes Are firmer.
Portland, Ore., Dec. 2. Much strong
er tone is showing for potatoes along
tho coast, with growers asking more
money. While purchases of select quali
ity potatoes have been confirmed in the
country at (1.10 per cental, and there
is talk of even a nickel moro tnan tni-
being paid, shippers contend that the
outaiiln (iivnann is not Keen enougn ai
tho momont to force udil'tional rises.
Some interests clnim that the present
advance iB due entirely to speculative
interests, who purchased heavily at low
or prices some time ago, and who are
now trying to stop a movement from
the farms in order to take at least a
portion of their profits.
The fact remains that while thp mar
ket for seed potatoes is quiet t.t the nfb-
mcnt, owi.g to tne lack of sutticieut
moisture Jot planting in the south, the
table Mock is commanding full value,
ulthough on no higher a basin than tho
present n.arVet in the Willmietto val
ley. Latest reports from tho immediate
vicinity of Portland indicate that the
Into crop is much below earlier expecta
tions, and that some of the sections will
have but little to offer during the re
mainder of the season.

WILLAMETTE NOTES
The Proposed Amendment.
A writer in the Capital Journal says:
"No person should vote on this ques
tion but those who pay toxes."
Who pays the taxes? Only the pro
ducer and consumer. Tho middle men
and professional men pay no taxes. The
merchant's customers pay his; the law
yer's clients pay his; tho doctor's pa
tients pay his; the bunker's borrowers
pay his, and so on down tho line. A
consumer, or a producer, mny own no
property, but he pays taxes, pays them
in the shape of reduced wages, higher
rents, hud tho increased price on what
ho buyt
A doctor of one of the manipulating
echoes suid: "I must get enough out
of my patients to cover ny rents, my
living expenses, my taxes, and a surplus
for a 'rainy day.' " That is the prin
ciple if all profeFsional activity.
Tho common mutt, if ho borrows
money, pays tho bunker's taxes; if lie
fees a doctor, he pays the doctor's
taxes; if he employs a lawyer ho pays
tho lawyer's taxes; if he buys groceries
he pys the grocer's taxes .and in
addition, if he owns a little home he
pays Ins own taxes, tor there is nolioity
beyond him on whom to shovo the
burden.
It would doubtless be very humilint
ni; to our bankers, doctors, lawyers
and merchants to be disfranchised, for
they tiro the IT of our social order;
