CHANGE THE CHARTER
The Facts About Section 1O6 and
Reasons for Changing it


Reasons for Changing 1t
Section lO6 In the present city
charter reads Bs follows:
''1be council shall at the same time
the tax for general expenses is levied
and al least once each year after the
Issue OF any such bonds, levy and COL
lect special tax on sll taxable prop
erty within the said city sufficient to
raise money enough to pay the interest
on all bonds issued under this act,
and to provide sinking fund with
which to pay the principal Of said
bonds at maturity"
This is, in other Worde, a direct tax
on property to keep up a plant and
pay for 1t.
With this provision still In the
chsrter no sensible property holder
would vote to put in water system.
Indeed, most men would vote "no"
on such plan. A man owning $40, 600
worth Of property. but using no
water, would be liable for heavy tay.
On The other hand, renter who used
much water would pay absolutely
nothing toward the plant. No iustice
be found having such an absurd pro-
vision. Therefore, the wise thing to
do is to change this, so as tu make
water rate maintain and pay tor a
plant. Even il one does not favor
putting In a municipal plant at the
present time he could and should vote
to change the charter.
To mako this clear, and also refute
some false notions about what in
vestors think of changed charter,
let us suppose that scme large manu-
factuler came here to stahlish plant
aud that his plant would equal all
the other taxable property now here.
Ii such man we're shIewd he would,
among other things, look up our
present city charter. He would Ger
tainly light on section LOG.
Here, he would say, 81 find l
would be liable for bali this water
plant IL / bring my plant here will
use no more water than any other
business house, nor my family than
any other family"
Ii we we're obliged to answer, i've
voted on that March %, 1909, aud the
vote stood not to change" be would
certainly say, "you are a lot of
chumps." "a build nothing here I"
And what is true OF large tax payer
ls equally true of small one.
there are some things no one can
at ord to do. and one of the things
Hood River can not afford Is to let
this Objectionable clause stand longer
in the city charter.

Lincoln on Proof.

l suggest to him Judge Douglass
that It will not avail him at all that
he swells himself up, takes on dignity
and calls people liars. If you
have ever studied geometry you re-
member that by a course Of reasoning
Euclid proves that all the angles in a
triangle are equal to two right angles.
Euclid has shown you how to work it
out. Now, if you undertake to dis
prove that proposition and to show
that 1t is erroneous would you prove
II to be false by calling Euclid a liar?
