Commission Meets MANY Will Attend
EXAMINES MANY WITNESSES in
ABERDEEN FRIDAY.
Learns Considerable Regarding AC.
tuaI Values of Real Estate and
Timber Lands. Nav Not affect
County Taxes, u Is Said. Certify
Action to Board,

After spending practically the en-
tire day Friday in interrogating wit
nesses as to the valuation of prop
erty in Chehalis county for the pur-
poses of more equitable apportiOn-
ment of the countys share of state
taxes, members of the state tax COM
mission consisting of j. E. Frost and
Thomas e. Parish, concluded their in
vestigation about 3 o'clock. During
the session a large number of wit
nesses were examined. County AS
SCISSOR H. II. Carter sat with the board
and had the privilege of examining
witnesses. The inquiry made here
was in line with similar inquiries
made throughout the state and Che
halls county was among the last
counties to be visited
Property Undervalued
According to the testimony taken
it appeared that timber lands and
real estate in general had been very
much undervalued in the assessment
made for county taxes. That testl-
mony will not, however, affect coun-
ty taxes, unless it shall be made a
basis by the county board of equali-
zation which meets in Montesano to-
day for raising valuations throughout
the county. No action, however, IS
anticipated.
Among the prominent lumber manu-
facturers who were heard ware Mel
Cooney, manager of the Grays Harpor
Commercial company, CosmopOlls;
George Emerson and Alex Poison, OF
Hoquiam; T. J. Preston and F. IT,
Jones, of Aberdeen, for the bankers,
and S. X. Bowes, d. M. Bowes, Is. f.
Cauthorn and E. C. Finch, all OF Alb
erdeen for the real estate interests.
Mr.. Poison was especially interro-
gated as to the value of timber lands
and gave the commission the price
at which he had bought and sold tim
ber tracts during the past year. He
referred to considerable number
that had been offered at prices he
considered beyond their actual value
and which he had refused to buy.
Real Estate Values
d. M. Bowes, S. X. Bowes and e. e.
Finch testified as to real estate IN
Aberdeen and the county. The form
er gave a list of sales he had made
in different parts of Aberdeen ana
said that a great many OF them nad
been made on time payments which
generally resulted in getting more
money than if sold for cash. The in
ouiry brought out the statement that
Mr.. Bowes had purchased for $l2,-
800 from Samuel Benn the harbor
property at the foot of H street in
Aberdeen, interest in which the city
lost at law. 1t is understood that this
includes the $4,000 that Mr. Benn Will
receive from the Union Pacific for
right of way.
Among others who testified were
former Senator e. ]. ODonnell, Il. ..
Avery and E. l.. Minard, all OF Elma'
]. e. Calder, of Montesano; }. >. NC
Kee and George Huke, OF Hoqulam;
George Wolff, F. r. Archer, >. d.

TWO WAYS OF TELLING A STORY

Ed. West Virginlan:
While driving down Pike street Den.
uty Sheriff Tucker asked me TO let him
ride. SO on our way down we. got
sight OF Cal Hawkinbcrry. but he took
TO the hills. Tucker in pursuit. across
by Clayton's slaughter house and bacl,
to the road near j. j. Brennen's store.
Tucker came back. got In the buggy,
telling ME to drive after Hnwkfnhcrry.
So drove down the road AMI he went
up toward the Evansville Shaft.
Then said to Tucker. Il can catch
that fellow: have won many II mile
race: Il won the gold medal al the
Playground July +th. 1901" Tucker
said. II will give You fifty cents to
catch him." SO Not thinking OF max

WHERE DOES Mr.. MARTIN STAND;

We have stated repeatedly In these
to know where d man stands OH vital
public issues when he Offers himself
as n candidate for public Office. Mr..
Reed. the Republican candidate for
mayor. has stated his position very
clearly and his friends believe he Is
absolutely sincere in what he says.
However. as yet we have heard not:-
Ing from Mr. Martin. the Democratic
4 candidate. Perhaps he thinks because
4 he has been endorsed by the Peoples
Party and the Prohibfttonists that he
does not need to make Il statement.
but5we are not SO certain about that
4 especially In view of What Is stated
ON seemingly reliable authority to the
effect that Mr. Martin ilas asked the
liquor men not to fight, him SO hard.
4 for he Is not sovcry dry after all; that
I he declared In a conversation very re-.
Gently that he would vote for license
IT there, was majority OF Just ono
this declaration he Is said to have
been electloneering among the glasa
house men. Now. the wonder to lis Is.
will Mr. Martins Prohibition friends
fellowship him when making such
declarations?
Another pretty serious question has
i A L..
have been talking to the Democratic
candidate a few days ago and the Dem.
ocratlc candidate stated rs Il reason
4 for his not particularly fnvoring
license that he belonged to club
Where he could get NIL he wanted to
drink anyhow. The license man said
he didn't belong. and that was why he
wanted license. We believe the peo-
7 PIE have right to know whether the
Democratic candidate with Prohibition
/ endorsement is playing square or not.
IF he believes In and pntrontzes clubs
where the members can get ali they
4 want to drink at any time and Is hold
ing out as an induccment to get votes
that he Is so near license man that
Q majority OF one would be satisfnc-
tory. especially when the election ma.
Echinery is under wet control. 1t seems
: to us a statement Of where he stands
Y and what he proposes TO do In case of
A election Is In order.
The man who Is elected mayor must
serve two years. He will represent
: the city at various public functions;
I he win participate in banquets no
doubt: he will attend smokers where
the flowing bowl Is in evidence even II
I the town goes dry, If the Republican
\ candidate is elected he will not .'touch
u drop" what about the Democratic
I candidate? Will he promise his Pro-
#hibition friends to be a total abstainer
