Supporters OF this amendment say
that every locality has undesirable

teachers; bridges ana other public
necessities. because Of the fact that

they can hold out OF use, awaiting

The Oregon Tax Reform associa-
ton has filed its proposed amend
ment for the election next June, hav-
ing several thousand more names
signed than Is required by law. To
show the widespread interest taken
in THIS amendment Il Is said that the
names were easily secured through
out the state making 1t the strongest
petition ever filed.
This amendment Is not based on
new or untried theories. but its prin-
ciples are demonstrated TO have
truth and right in them. New zea-
land. Manitoba and other British
colonies, have for a number Of years
exempted improvements and person.
al property. and It has invariably
worked in the interests OF the pro.
duclng classes in city or country.
Many of the greatest Americans
have endorsed the principle which
this amendment approaches. Among
them Senator la Follett. Governor
Folk, Tom Johnson, Henry George
and VIM. Lloyd Garrison. They be-
lieve in the principle of raising the
needed revenues for carrying on our
government. and at the same time

ing land values and franchises more
and exemptlng improvements and
personal property--in short what is
commonly known as the single tax.

STILL MYSTERIOUS.

STILL MYSTERIOUS. = The cause of the Constable warehouse fire seems to be as far from solution as ever and the manner of its starting will prob ably never be known. The theory ad vanced by some, for want of better one. that the fire was caused by spark from some of the electrical ap- paratus, or from the wires. seems in the light of later investigation to be an entirely impossible one. Superin- tendent Ensign of the Pacific Electric Gas and Electric company said yes terday that there was not a better or safer job of wiring in the city than that in the Constable plant. It had been done with particular carefulness and at an extra and unusual expense to correct some careless work when the installation was first made. The 'wires ran over either brick or stone every inch of the way, and the switches and meters were all on marble board. Nothing inflammable was anywhere within the zone of in- fluence of the wires or paraphernalia. The conduit where the wires entered the building is still in evidence. and intact and uninjured Moreover. MT. Marshall of the Constable management agrees with this opinion and the plant had been carefully examined and ap- proved by the underwriting board.
