SEEKING OPTIONS ON
WATER FRONT
MAY FORECAST SOME BIG
DEAL, BUT DETAILS ARE
NOT KNOWN.

For the past several days efforts
have been carried on to secure OPP
iions on much of the waterfront
property, and also other property be-
tween Commercial street and the
river Norris Staples has been the
moving spirit in the matter, and he
has seen quite a number Of the own
crs Of property in regard TO the
matter.
Just what there Is back Of the mat
ter Is not known, and Mr.. Staples
says he Is not in position to talk.
II am doing this for someone else"
Mr.. Staples said last evening, i was
requested to do SO by the persons
interested and naturally am not AZ
liberty to speak"
Mr.. Staples was asked II he was
successful in securing options on any
Of the property, but he indicated
that he is meeting with difficulties,
for the moment any such effort is
made people who own property jump
the prices up.
While nothing definite is known by
the Astorian about the matter, other
than the mere fact that efforts have
been put forth to secure prices on
property in the center Of the city, or
options therefor, there is the possi-
bility that il may mean there is some-
thing big in the air. II is known from
other sources that there are pretty
big plans on foot and whether they
ever materialize or not is a question
for the future TO determine. 1t has
been limited that dcyelopents may
happen very soon.
The stories in relation to the mat
ter with which Mr., Staples is con-
neeted state that il is desired to get
prices or options on property from
Fifth to Tenth streets.

WIN Have To Sue

II the State Of Oregon wants the
extra $4,000 in State taxes recently
imposed BY the State board Of equal
ization il will have to sue for it, ac-
cording 70 members Of the county
court. A, the beginning Of the year
the State taxes for Clatsop county
were set at $4,000; and then after
the close OF the session OF the legis-
lature, and after the levy had been
all made and collection OF taxes com
menced, the state board tackled on
an additional $4,000 Even il the
county was anxious to pay this sum,
how it could do SO is not apparent
at least not in this years levy, as the
time for including ii in the taxes has
gone by Yet there Is not doubt that
the state will expect and will demand
the $4,000, and when il does, on the
first Of May, il will probably be met
with a polite but firm refusal, The
assessor OF the county had made the
valuation at little over $800l,000,
while the State board increased this
to over $l4OOO0O0 With an increase
Of over 100000 no one here can
understand either, why the extra
$4,000 only is demanded as that is not
a proportionate increase,

WIN Deport Her

VIII Deport Her
United States Commissioner Marsh
at Portland held All Tai Jai. alias
Ling Jai, the Chinese slave girl, for
deportation on the ground that she
was illegally in this country. The
proceedings incident to the decree
that will send her back to China
are pathetic. She is young and rather
comely for her race, and has appar
entity been abandoned to her fate af-
ter figuring in sensational elopment
from Portland to Astoria few
weeks ago. 1t was the developments
of this episode that caused the fed
eral officials to become cognizant Of
her mode of life, and Assistant
United States Attorney Walter H.
Evans took active steps to have her
deported In all probability his ac-
tiyity in the matter must have in
spired her owners to keep under
cover, as no one appeared TO defend
her, notwithstanding that she was
considered a great prize in Portland's
Chinatown.

The Washington legislature has
passed bill merging The counties Of
cowliz and Wahkiakum into one
judicial district, FOR which a new
Judge will have 70 be appointed at
once; and il il said that Attorney
Frank Olsen Of caihlamet is the
candidate from the latter county,
while Mr.. Mckinney Of Kelso
stands for the appointment from
cowlitz, While Kelso itself has more
voters than the whole oi Wahkiakum
county, and Mr, Olscn's only chance
of winning ont Is by appointment by
the Governor That executive has
not intimated whom he will appoint
in the premise, but both gentlemen
have presented strong letters and
claims and the matter will be made
known very shortly Should Mr.,
Olsen set the honor, be will be the
first Norwegian citizen TO receive
such a dignity in the history Of the
Evergreen State.

On Wildcat Lots

Gh "hhShA AJtn
In circuit court yesterday Judge
Mcbride gave decision in the suit
brought by the Douglass Land Com
pany Of this city against clatsop
county, wherein the plaintiff company
sought to have the assessment on
its numerous lots reduced The de.
cision was for the company, The as
sessment had been set by the asses
sor Mr.. Cornelius, at 81 lot, and
Judge Mcbride cut this just in half,
making the assessed valuation Of
each lot at 81. That has been the
rate on the wildcat" lots for long
time. until last year the Increase was
made to 50, The Douglass Land
Company, and various other owners
Of such lots, appeared before the
board Of equalization and sought to
have the new assessment lowered,
but without avail, Appeal was then
taken to the circuit court. The de-
cision is Of considerable Importance
because Of the great number of such
lots, and at the 81 rate the county
authorities state that it will be vir-
tually useless to collect the taxes, as
the cost Of collection is practically as
great as the taxes themselves,

More "Blind Pigs

Residents Of Uppertown are saying
that they are sorry that the grand
jury did not make a clean sweep Of
the blind pigs" while the matter was
being investigated. They aver that
there were two Of the blind poreine
places were overlooked in the rush.
OF course the reason the grand jury
overlooked them was simply because
no evidence was brought before the
inquisitorial body as to their exist
ence, as it wasn't playing any favor-
ties. But It may be doubted that the
two places which are supposed to
have been missed are selling any
