The provisions enacted some
years ago, prohibiting the people
from deducting their indebted
ness from the gross value of their
property assessed, has probably
contributed more during the
hard times since 1893 to
deprive a large class of people of
their homes than any other one
thing which CO. fronted them.
The scheme did not lessen the
rate of taxation, as promised by
SO many reformers, but to their
great surprise the rates have
gradually become larger, and the
poor man who had his little
home partly paid for, with small
mortgage thereon, when it be-
came necessary for him to pay
taxes on that part which he had
paid for and also ON the mort.
gage without deduction, the ad-
ditional burdens were too great
and the home passed into other
hands.

Notable among the pleasures afforded
by the Shasta Route is the winter trip to
Southern California and Arizona. Re-

will ever develop fresh points OF interest
and added industries, in its prolific vege-

of mountain, shore, valley and plain.
The two daily Shasta trains from Port

equipped with the most approved pat
tern of standard and tourist sleeping

continue in effect.

ELECT WITHOUT DELAY.

Four hundred thousand people
in the state Of Oregon are inter-
ested iu the legislature now as

right to expect that their sena-
tors and representatives will
meet and promptly organize both
houses of the Legislature and
proceed with reasonable. dispatch
to elecs a United Estates senator
and thereafter pass on to the
careful consideration and enact
ment Of such laws as our rapidly
growing necessities require. De-
lay for several weeks in e1eoting
a senator will prevent the men,
bers from proceeding with other
and more important business.
Any attempt to hold up the
legislature to prevent the cleo
tion of a senator, no matter who
the candidate may be, will meet
with much disfavor. In the
several sessions of the legislature
where extraordinary delays have
occurred in the election of SEN
ater 1t would have been infinitely
better for the state had a senator
been promptly elected on the
first ballot. The difference in
candidates is of muoh less I'M
porsance to the people of Oregon,
as to which one is elected sena,
tor, than many suppose. There
is no man who comes pron,i
nently before the legislature
who will not do his best for the
state, and such men also have
ability to serve we'll It become
more important to the fedora
Office holder and those who ex
pect job at the hands of tn
successful candidate. This i
the class which is most promi
nent in preventing caucus AIT
such action as defeats and delay
the election, when it does no
seem likely to go their way
1t is coming to the point when
long suffering public will requir
their representatives to ignor
the politician sufficiently to g

didate, proceed to elect him an
pass on to other business.

The committee also paid attention to

fore its repeal was urged. Oil corpora
their free action. The instructions of the
preceding convention to the committee
were to have the constitutionality of the
California Debris Commission act tested.
The committee reviewed that act at
length, going back to the North Bloom
field decision.
The committee reported that the min
ers who have availed themselves of the
terms of the act have complied with the
onerous terms imposed and have in every
such instance gone before the commits
sion. The Antf-Debris Association, on
the other hand. when they have COM
planned of mines working injuriously un-
der permit, do not go before the same tri-
bunal to ask for a revocation or nodif-
cation of the permit, as they can do at
any time, but nave of late been going into
the Superior courts of California, asking
for injunctions.
The Red Dog hydraulic mine has already
been closed down by injunction from the Su-
perior Court of sutter County; the Polar Star
mine is closed down under a temporary re-
strainins order from the same court, and suits
have been begun or are threatened against
many other mines operating under the juris-
diction of the commission.
Such action, continued the committee on the
part of the Anti-Debris Association, challenges
the constitutionality Of the act and discloses
their purpose of getting the miner to submit
to that Jurisdiction without submitting to it
themselves. The question Of the constitutional
ity Of the act protection to the mine-
has never been passed upon.
The committee recommended as follows
concerning the case to be brought to test
the act:
For the purpose of any miner who desires to
take his chances under the act the test Of the
constitutional question should be made in some
case brought against company person oper-
ating under a duly obtained permit from the
commission, and not In any case against a
company or person not operating under such a
permit Not only is that true, but the test
would have to be made in case where a
farmer attacks the constitutionaIitv of the ac+
the ground that some constitutional right of
his is being abridged by the MINER working
under the permit Of the commission. or bv the
State of California contending that some of
it's constitutional rights are being abridged by
the act Of miner operating under a duly OBJ
tanned permit from the commission No other
test will be of any avail; no obiter dictum of
any court in considering the act from any other
point of view or in any other controversy, other
than either of the two above set FORTH will at
