CAN NOR CONSISTENTLY OBJECT.

If the attitude of the press of
the state can be taken as a crite-
rion of the sentiment of the peo-
ple-aud the country press is
usually a safe barometer-the
legislature at the coming session
will vote an appropriation of
$500, 900 for the Lewis and Clark
fair.
Whatever may be the feeling
of the people of Benton county
regarding the matter, we find
ourselves ia a position where op-
position to the appropriation viii
come in bad grace. A summary
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1903-01-02
of the. situation is evidence OF

of the. situation is evidence of
this.
By an act of the legislature,
approved February 2z, 1901,
prescribing the method by which
state taxes shall be apportioned
among the several counties, a
radical change was made in the
method of apportioning the reve-
nue. required for state purposes.
The method previously followed
! was to apportion against each
county such proportion of he to-
tai state revenue required as the
taxable property of the county
bore to the taxable property
of the state, as shown by the as
sessment rolls of the several coun-
ties, or their summaries, filed
with the Secretary of State.
Stated briefly, the present law
provides that until January, 1905,
the proportion of the state tax to
be paid by each of the several
counties shall be according to a
stated per cent, whieh was deter
mined by ascertaining the aver
age valuations in the several
counties for the preceding Eve
years, and the ratio OF each coun-
tvs valuation was in proportion
to its percentage of the total val
uation. Commencing with jan
uary, 1905, it is provided that the
apportionment is to be based up
on the average amount of expen-
ditures in each county during a
period of FIVE years beginning
with 1901, the proportion being
based on the percentage of ex-
penditures each county will bear
to the total amount of expendi-
lures in all the counties of the
state. Every fifth year thereaf-
ter a new computation is to be
made, based on an average for
the preceding years. In other
words, commencing with Janu-
ary, 1905, each county will pay
state taxes in the proportion that
its expenses bear to the total ex-
penses of all the counties.
By this arrangement, Benton
county is to pay per cent of
the amount of revenue to be
raised by the state, while Multi
nomah will pay 31.2 per cent.
Benton county, therefore, will
contribute $40, 900 to the 1905
fair appropriation, if $500, 900 is
voted. At the same session of
the legislature which enacted the
above apportionment law, a bill
was passed providing for an an
nual appropriation of $25, 600
for the State Agricultural College.
And let it be said right here, the
delegation from Mu1tnomah
county supported this bill as it has
supported all other bills appro-
priating funds for the develop
ment of this school, =
Under that act, Mu1tnomah
county will contribute st.. 300
each year for the next two years,
or SIS, 600 of the $50, 600 which
will go to the Agricultural Col
lege in that time from the state
treasury. Benton county will
have given $40, 900 to the Lewis
and Clark fair. There is good
reason, also, to believe that a
special appropriation for the col
ege will be asked during this
lime, and Multnomah county
will bear 32,2 per cent of this
burden, while Benton will bear
out 2 per cent Of it.
1t is evident, therefore, that,
whatever may be the opinion of
he taxpayers of this county re-
,arding the merit of the fair ap-
'ropriation, Benton will have to
AXE her medicine with the best
race possible, and be as liberal
With Multnomah as Multnomah
as been with her.

St. Joseph's Church Fair q Great Success

AS was stated last week the net pro-
ceeds of the St. Joseph church fair are
nearly $4,000, and Father T. L. Rab-
steinek is deserving of much credit for
the able manner in which he conducted
the many and varied details of the great
undertaking. 1t was certainly a great
undertaking to solicit funds for and
superintend the erection of so grand and
costly a church edifce--the finest and
largest in the state outside of Fargo.
The fair was given to raise funds with
which to wipe out some of the remaining
indebtedness, and Father Rabsteinek is
very grateful to the people for their as
sistance and liberal patronage.
