To Discuss the Rights Of Eminen
Domain.
COMMITTEES ARE APPOINTED
Bills to Be Drafted to Present to the
Legislatures Of Oregon and
Washington for
Enactment.

Seattle, Dec. 10.--A meeting Of the
loggers, timbermen and millmen Of the
Columbia river, Grays Harbor and the
sound was held today. The object of
the meeting was to formulate some
plans to secure the right of eminent do
main for the various logging roads in
Oregon and washington. At present,
this law only applies to railroad COM
panies., Efforts have been made by the
legislatures of both states in the past
to secure laws whereby owners of tim
Der lands can secure right to go over
lands in front of them lying upon rivers
and natural outlets for logs. Laws
have ben passed giving owners of land
the right to construct logging roads
which shall be public highways, but
the supreme courts have held these
laws unconstitutional. The law of emf
nent domain will give logging COM
panies the right to condemn lands for
logging railroads, by rendering reas-
enable value for the lands used. AS
the matter now stands, rich syndicates
own most of the timber adjacent to
rivers and streams and there is no way
for timber owners back of them to get
their logs to market A committee was
appointed to draft bills to be intro
duced in the legislatures of both states,
granting the right of eminent domain
to all logging companies now organized
or to be hereafter organized in the two
states. Representatives of the logging
interests will go to the state capitals
and attempt to secure the enactment
of the law.

CIatsop County Enioined From

TIMBER SYNDlCATEs COMBlNE
Complaint Alleges That Lands Have

Five of the principal timber syndi-
Gates yesterday filed in the cir

temporary injunction against Clatsop
county and Thomas Linville. sneriff,
restraining them from selling the prop
erty Of plaintiffs for delinquent taxes.
The companies are Charles A. Rust ct
al, c H. Wheeler, John Z. Dubois.
Blodget Co. and the whitney Co. The
complaint alleges that the plaintiffs are
the owners of large tracts of timber
in Clatsep county, and that they have
been assessed erroneously, and at a
higher figure than their appraised
value, and more in proportion than adj
jacent lands similarly situated are as
sessed. They ask for temporary in
junction until the matter can be heard
in the court and thereafter that
permanent injunction be issued re-
straining the sheriff from selling their
property. They allege that the equit-
able taxes against the tracts of land are
a certain sum, which they deposited in
court. The aggregate amount Of the
money deposited with County Clerk
Clinton in the five suits is $1,000. Coun-
ty Judge Trenchard issued a tempo
rary injunction against selling their

will not affect the sale of other prop
erty by being advestised.
AS the timber lands involved are not
at one third the price paid for
them, and as the laws of oregon require
all lands to be assessed at their actual
cash value, the contention of the plaint-
iffs is hardly tenable. They have
escaped their just proportion Of taxes
for years. They bought the timber
lands on speculation at very nominal
figure, and expect to realize handsome
Iy on the investment. AS matter OF
fact, the land is not assessed enough,
and 1t is to be hoped that this year,
they will be compelled to pay their
Just proportion Of taxes.

today. and the story Is told In score
of Ito against Commercial Of Astoria.
At Recreation Park this afternoon
Astoria went against a proposition II
could not handle. although the battle
was a game one, and in the first half
Astoria was not In danger.
In the second, however Seattle
buckled down In line bucking, and the
Astoria resistance was not sufficiently
heavy to Withstand the onrushes OF the
sound boys, BY aggressive and snappy
work Seattle jammed the ball across
for two goals, but an easy goal was
missed on the first down. The second
time, though, Huntoon booted her fair
and square between the posts and over
the bar.
II is only fair to say that Seattle had
the assistance of some college men,
who have been In practice all season.
In the first half Astoria played a
snappy game from which there was no
recourse. but, In the second. Seattle
took their measure. and, while in strik-
ing distance Of the goal line, and while
Seattle, they could not
force the opposing line.
The second half found them in a

Of the first. and Seattle won as she
chose. Both sides played good, clean
