WETzEL URGES
WATER SURVEY

In a communication fled with
the city clerk yesterday, Water
Commissioner Wetzel submits a
report on the advisability of MAX
ing survey of the city's water
service, as recommended by the
mayor. The last survey was made
at cost of about $500. The popu-
lation of the city was then 81 900
1t is now approximately 100000
On this basis a survey would cost
about $3.50.
Mr.. Wetzel says that should the
cost run up to $1,000, it will re.
quire about AZ cents additional rev.
enue per year on each tap, assum.
ing there are $500 taps, or one
additional room on every third tap
to pay for the survey in one year
Mr.. Wetzel expresses the belief
that survey will disclose a great
many extensions that have beer
made and q great mny additions to
houses and buildings of which the
water department has no knowl
edge and from which it Is receiv.
ing no revenue.

ing under an arch north of the
main one would mean that to Sc
cure the proper curvature 1t would
be necessary to connect with the
tracks almost a block further east.
The entire net of terminal tracks
are to be about IS feet below the
present grade of the streets. The
elevation from the proposed freight
terminal on the north bank of the
river west of Monroe street necessi-
tates this to secure the elevation.
Travel on Post street will be over
viaduct on similar scheme
which Is now in operation on Wash
ington street in connection with
the Great Northern tracks.
Mayor Moore this morning said
he thought the terminal depot
would be much after the plan Of
the Indianapolis terminal, which
occupies about the same area as
the proposed North Coast terminal
may. Entrance to the depot will
probably be on level with the
streets, and the trains would be
entered from the basement.
r. A. Strahorn, president of the
North Coast, had nothing further
to say today further to confirm the
plan outlined by his engineer.

H|SGEN

TOLEDO, Oct. 23.--Request for
the name of the contributor of
$4,000 to the campaign fund of
the democracy" is the salient fea-
ture of an open letter addressed to
Bryan by Hisgen. independence
candidate, and printed here.
He denies that Roosevelt is the
author of the charge that the do
nation is from Standard Oil, and
declares the question demands an
answer because the people are
wondering who is the contributor
He also says Treasurer Mack, OF
the democratic committee, made a
deliberate misstatement about the
contribution when he said he did
not have the money. He also says
it is hard to tell when Mack is
telling the truth.
Hisgen says Haskell and Mack
are bad eggs from the same
basket" and closes by saying Bry-
an is unfortunate in the choice of
his friends referring 10 Senators
Bailey and McLaurin, Roger Sulli-
van. Taggart and Kern.
Bryan has denied such a fund
as the 100000 existed and his
denials are supported by Mack's
statements.

PROPOSED ALTERATION OF
PRESENT SYSTEM OF PUB
Lie ASSESSMENTS TO BE
VOTED ON NEXT MONTH.

VIII fair and impartial admin
istration of the present laws Of the
state of Washington governing as
sessment and taxation of property
satisfy the taxpayers of the state,
or is 1t necessary to revolutionize
the system and grant greater pow
ers to the state tax commission?
This is the question that comes
before the people of the state in
an amendment to the state consti-
tuition to be voted upon at the gen.
eral election next month.
The amendment itself yields lit
tie information on first reading.
The public has SO far had to rely
on the statements made by the tax
commissioners to get any idea of
what it was all about. 1t consists
of but one brief paragraph, but its
effect will be to wipe out four en-
tire sections of the present state
constitution and change to the last
detail the system OF assessment
and taxation Of property of every
kind.
The present laws provide for "a
uniform and equal rate Of assess
ment and taxation on all property
a., tAo stoto ,ncardjon ~ itS yal,o
In money"
Theh amendment provides that
taxes shall be uniform on the
same class Of subjects"
The amendment thus opens the
way for what the state tax com
missioners declare to be their pur-
pose--to segregate all kinds of
property in the state into separate
classes; some to be assessed and
taxed on one basis, some on anoth.
er, and so on, at the will of the
commissioners or the legislatures
of the state.
The classes and the kind of prop.
erty to go into each class are not
covered by the amendment. The
segregation and classification is
left the the state officers, and SC
far as any constitutional inhibi-
ton is concerned may be changed
and shifted at will.
Tax Commissioner Frost states
that it is the purpose of the com
mission, II the amendment shall
carry, to divide all property into
two main classes, one OF which
shall pay taxes only to the state
and the other carry the burden Of
all other kinds of taxation.
Under this plan the counties are
to be relieved from the payment OF
taxes for the support of the state
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1908-10-23
STATE TAX AMENDMENT
DEMANDS ATTENTION

government. At the same time
enormous values in taxable re-
sources are to be set aside into the
first class and will thereafter pay
no taxes to the counties, but only
to the state.
The trainers of the amendment
frankly seek the support of the
smaller taxpayer and homeowner
by the argument that he will thus
be relieved of the burden of state
taxes; but they do not fully explain
that the burden of the small tax
payer In county, municipal, school.
road and other taxes is to be vast
ly increased by the fact that an inn
mense proportion of taxable re.
sources will no longer pay taxes to
these funds.
Commissioner Frost has urged
that the amendment will permit the
assessment and taxation of money,
credits and other socalled intangi-
BILE property. Opponents of the
amendment conceded that this may
DO so and that the object Is a
worthy one, but argue that too
much else is involved in the
amendment.
Whatever may be the purposes
of the present tax commissioners,
1t is pointed out that they will
not continue in Office forever; that
the complexion of the legislature
changes biennially, and there can
be, no way of guaranteeing that
present purposes will be fulfilled.
The plans of the present COM
missioners, as they have been an
nounced, having met with so much
opposition, 1t is argued that, to
adopt the amendment in its pres
ent vague form and entrust the
whole great problem of assessment
and taxation to future commission
ers and future legislators. is good
deal OF a plunge in the dark.
Whatever may be the merits OF
the opposing contentious. one
thing seems certain, and that is
that this amendment deserves
fmueh more than the passing atten-
ton of the voters.

READY
FOR V|AOUCTS

City Engineer Ralston last night
informed the council that the via
duct plans for Washington street
were completed and in the hands
Of engineers of the various rail
roads Interested. Division street
viaduct plans will be completed in
few days and likewise given to
the railroad engineers for their ap-
proval.
Just how soon work Is to be
started on the improvements is I'M
known, but it will probably not be
before spring, as the red tape me-
cessary between local engineers
and heads Of departments will like.
ly consume several months.
The viaducts will be constructed
entirely at the cost OF the railroads,
according to Mr.. Ralston's infor-
nation.
