LUMBER PRICES MAY GO Up.
That Raise VIII BE Made
in n Month or So.


There is a strong probability that lum-
Der consumers throughout the Northwest
will receive gentle jar before another
week has elapsed in the shape of raise
III the price of finished, or higher grades
of lumber. There Is also a probability
that a change will be effected in the
price scale of lower grades. While the
proposed increase has not been officially
made public by the controlling interests,
such a movement has been planned for
some time and 1t, has been learned from
good authority that within a week def
mite action will be taken.
certain portion of the lumber manu-
facturers, who control prices. have been
agitatfng raise in lumber since the first
of the year. and these men have gone 50
far as to prepare new list of prices, it
having been arranged to put the new
price schedule in effect April /. But the
proposition was strenuouSly opposed by
the local manufacturers when the mat
ter came up at the last meeting and be-
cause of their objections the new list
was tabled. The local manufacturers ar
gued that the conditions of trade did not
warrant an increase, holding that owing
to the unsettled state OF labor affairs and
other reasons, the time was unfavorable
for the announcement of an increase.
Therefore it was thought wise to post
pone action for a month at least.

WATER FRONTAGE TAX
CASE IS AGAIN ARGUED BEFORE
SUPREME COURT.

The case of the city against the R. P.
Lewis company, Of. ST. Paul, which will
test the validity Of the water frontage
tax Of 10 cents per front foot, was argued
again before the supreme court yester-
day T{N4
F. H. Griggs appeared for the city, and
D. w. Doty sfor the water frontage own
ers, represented by the Robert P. Lewis
company Mr. Griggs quoted a decision
OF the United States supreme court sus-
tanning the Frontage tax for paving, and
claimed the court should follow this de-
cision in regard to the water tax. The
state supreme, court last winter decided
that the water frontage was illegal be-
cause it was arbitrary, and a reversal
is now asked for. The case referred to,
which was decided IN the United States
supreme court, was that of Norwood VS.
Baker. Here the property abutting the
paved streets had been assessed for the
actual cost of the paving, and the as
sessnlent as stated was sustained. 1t
was contended by Mr.. Doty, for the wa
ter frontage owners that that case was
altogether different because there the
property benefited was assessed for the
actual cost of the paving, while in the
case here the frontage tax of 10 cents
per front foot is continuous and bears
no particular relation to the cost OF lay
ing the mains
