UNION PACIFIC SURVEY.
Work of Locating Line Begins at Ia
coma and Chehalis.

coma and Chehalis.
Chase, who is in charge of construc-
ton work for the Union Pacific rail
road, has returned from Seattle. where
he has been for three or four days in
consultation with officials of the Har.
riman lines regarding work on the
lines in Tacoma and between Tacoma
and Portland. Mr.. Chase says two
surveying crews will begin work on
the Tacoma Portland survey immedi-
ately. One crew will begin four or
five miles out of the city limits and
work toward Chehalis and Centralia.
The other crew will work from Che
halls south toward Portland. They
will make definite location.
81 cannot say just what route they
will map out" said Mr.. Chase, "but
they will, of course, seek the lowest
grade and the shortest line to Port
land. Until this survey is completed,
or at least further advanced than it is
at present, we will be unable to give
any additional information regarding
the course of our line out of Tacoma
'The surveying work will begin to-
day, or, rather, the surveying parties
will be sent out ON this line today and
the work on the route from Tacoma to
Portland will be rushed. There are a
great many details to be worked out
before construction begins, and it will
probably be during the latter part of
the fall months that the first dirt will
be thrown"

session. No other objection appears g.,
have been made. The commissioners
however. did take cOgnizance of tho
application and ordered hearins
thereon at a further adiornne5
meeting of the August session On
October 18th following, and gave M
tice thereof to the parties. The civ
thereupon made this application to ,ho
Supreme Judicial court for writ ~
prohibition to the county commissions
ers to prohibit their proceeding further
in the matter.
Reviewing the law and the case stat
ed, | think the following Propositions
must be conceded, viz:
/. The county commissioners have
statutory authority and jurisdiction
to receive. consider and determine ~
some time an application like this bv
the Edwards Manufacturing Comnan,,
for an abatement of its taxes an
abatement having been refused by the
municipal assessors. The only uuee-
ton is as to that time. In other word.
the only question is as To the meaning
Of the phrase lat their next meeting"
in the statute cited Or: $. Oh 9. seq
7S)--Does it mean the next meeting Of
the commissioners by adjournment Of a
prior begun annual session." that be-
gun on the third Tuesday of August. or
does il mean the next annual session"
of the commissioners, that to be begun
on the third Tuesday of next Dccem-
Der? The question is not wholly free
from doubt. Eminent counsel dis
agree upon it.
=. a petition for writ of prohibi-
ton is not an appropriate process for
obtaining an Interpretation of a statute.
3. The issue OF a writ Of prohibi-
ton Wnuli not free the city from the
could only delay that action for a few
months. If the commissioners cannot
act Oct. II, as proposed they cannot
act next December upon similar ap-
rIication. 1t does not appear that the
city would gain any advantage from
the delay. or come to any harm by the
earlier hearing.
4. If the city's theory is correct,
it can safely disregard the proposed
action and any consequent judgement
OF the commissioners upon this appli-
cation. as they would be utterly null:
or it can have them QuaShed upon
certior;,ri. 1t is i be assumed that tn
court would issue the writ of certio-
rar. if the commissioners undertake to
make or enforce an abatement of the
tax without any authority to do so.
| think it follows that there appears
no such emergency as requires writ
of prohibition to save the situation or
the city's rights. The temporary re-
Straining order must be rescindeu and
the petition dismissed with costs.
