he thought it would be detriment to

Tax Timber Lands.

ls there any justice, any reason, in
assessing fine timber claims, worth $50,
$50, or $40 an acre, at 81, 50, So, or IS an
acre? The owners of these lands are
making, gaining millions, merely by
letting their lands lie, while timber be-
comes scarcerand higher. Is there any
presentable reason why they should
not pay taxes according to the real val
lie of these lands, the same as man
who goes in the open, or clears up
place and makes home, pays on prop
erty? If so what is the reason? This
is question that the taxpayers of
every timbered country would do we'll
to ask their assessors. What are the
timber lands of Oregon worth to day?
Far more everybody knows than our
state ass essmeut. What portion of the
taxes do the owners Of this magnificent
property, rapidly increasing in value
without the owners turning hand or
lifting finger, to day? A very small,
an insignificant proportion.
The lesson is plain and simple. Tax
these lands according to value. Then
IN 1905 we shall probably nave Harris
or Davey law for taxing corporations;
and in few years Oregon can show up
with taxable property amounting to
$780, 900 or $500, 100000, and a tax
rate decreased in proportion. The
work along this line has begun in Clack-
amas, in Marion, in Umatilla, perhaps
in Multnomah; let it continue and be
enlarged and become general. Assess.
ment and taxation has been a mere
hnggermugger system here for 40 years;
let us work out of it. There is no more
sense or reason in having heavy tax
levy of 38 or 40 mills than of having to
pay rs cents for two-bit article. Port
