the witness stand for cross-examina-

did not desire to undergo so severe
a cross-examination by the learned
senator of Portland and reminded him
Of the fact that the bill had been
drawn by another distinguished gem
tleman Of Portland. That brought
Judge Lionel Webster to the floor and
it was then that it developed that
some one had blundered-that sec
tions belonging to the state prison
convict bill passed yesterday had been
injected into it and that but a portion
of Senator Carson's original bill re-
mained. Just who was responsible
for the blunder, whether the state
printer or the clerk of the senate was
not determined at noon, but that it is
one of them is certain. The bill was
then referred back to the committee
and ordered reprinted
Becomes Involved i'm Talk.
The senate then proceeded to the
consideration of bill introduced by
Senator Barrett, of Umatilla county,
and which authorizes county to issue
bonds for the building of roads. Like
yesterday there was flood of amend
ments and an incessant chatter upon
them, and when the senate adjourned
at noon, it was still amending and
still chattering. The bill provides
that when petition containing sign
ers equal to one-fourth of the vote
cast for certain officers at the last
general election shall ask county
court to hold a special election for
the issuance of bonds that the court
shall call it.
Farmer Stirs Them Up.
Just before the noon hour the SEN

a farmer of Hood River, on the bill.
He objected, not only to some features
of it, but the bill as a whole and said
that there was a substitute bill in

boils, which lasted for about two

rise. After the blister would open,
the place would scab over, and would
burn and itch so as to be almost I'M
bearable at times. In this way the
sores would spread from one place TO
another, back and forth over the
whole of my upper lip and chin, and
at times the whole lower part OF my
face would be a solid sore. This con-
dition continued for four or five years,
without getting any better, and in fact
got worse all the time, SO much so
that my wife became alarmed lest 1t

THE EQUALIZATION
OF TAX BURDENS
THE PLANS OF THE STATE TAX
COMMISSION FOR A MORE
EQUITABLE METHOD.
THE FAIR WAY TO ASSESS REAL
ESTATE Is BY SELLING PRICE.
The Work Of the Commission for
Equalization Of the Burdens Of
Taxation Briefly Outlined.

The commission OF inquiry into tax
alton authorized by the last legsla-
ture for the purpose of studying the
whole situation Of taxation in Michi-
gan and to make such recommends
tons as would If carried out. equal
lie as far as possible the burdens of
taxation, make the following state
ment relative to the commissions
plan for the taxation of corporations:
Section Z, OF article 10, of the con-
stitution of 1908 provides that all as
sessments hereafter authorized shall
be on property at its cash value
This provision was also in the consti-
tuition OF 1850 The word property
as used in this section, has been held
by our courts to mean both tangible
and intangible property. II is obvious
TO any student of the subject of taxa
ton that the surest and best way to
bring about equality of burden is to-
follow, If possible, the plain, simple
mandate of the constitution viz, to
assess all property of the state, wher-
ever located and of whatever charac-
ter, at its fair cash value. This idea
has been uppermost in the minds of
the commission from the beginning,
and whatever recommendation shall
be made will be founded primarily
upon this provision OF the constitu-
ton.
The true cash value OF property,
tangible and intangible. for the pur-
pose of taxation, is its fair cash value
for purposes OF income and sale. The
price which property will bring in the
market in ordinary times and under
normal conditions is its value for pur-
poses of taxation as well as for pur-
poses of investment and sale. In the
case of real estate, actual sales are
so frequent in every locality that it is
comparatively easy to determine the
fair cash value of that class of prop
erty. Whatever difficulties which may
be encountered in the assessment of
real estate are largely matters of ad-
ministration
The commission has tentatively
agreed upon this proposition and has
under advisement at the present time
the following plan for the taxation of
corporations, exclusive of those now
assessed by the state board of asses
sors, the tax from which is paid into
the primary school fund:
"GD The state tax commission
shall determine the true cash value
of the property. tangible and intangi-
BILE, of all corporations used on the
basis of the fair cash value of stock
and bonds for purposes of income and
sale.
"(2) The local assessors will de-
termine the fair cash value of tangi-
BILE property Of all corporations and
assess such property at the local rate.
"(3) From the value Of the whole
property of the corporation as deter
mined by the state tax commission
will be deducted the assessed valua-
tion of the tangible property assessed
at the average rate paid by all other
property in the state for all purposes,
locally. The difference if any, will be
assessed by the state tax commission
and the tax thus levied paid into the
state treasury TO be used fer the gen
eral purposes of the state"

Rouqh on the turtles.

Creek Indians in the vicinity OF
Wetumka, Okla, are resorting to an
cient tribal customs in an attempt to
obtain a rainfall. One of their Gus
toms, which has been widely followed
during the past few days, is to stake
mud-turtles on the edge of a stream
just far enough away from the water
so that they cannot reach 1t. 1t is
the Indians belief that the turtles de-
spairing in their attempts to reach
the water, invoke the aid of the great
spirit TO send rain so that the stream
will be raised and brought near them.
Since the turtles were first staked
out, several rains have fallen. The
Indians believe their prayers are be-
ing answered and they are fastening
up more turtles to pray for a greater
rainfall

substitute. 1t belongs to the platinum
group, and has many of the qualities
Of platinum, although in some respects
1t resembles silver. Among It's valu-
able characteristics are hardness, due
tility and malleability. 1t is also de-
cidedly non-corrodible. 1t occurs,
along with nickel, copper, silver, gold,
platinum, iridium and rhodium, in the
ores of the nickel miles in Ontario.
Out of 100000 tons of these ores about
5000 ounces of palladium are annual
ly produced.

Industrial Insurance.

As a sequel to disclosures that com

and fraud in evading payment of
claims. Insurance Commissioner Pal
mer, of Michigan, who was chairman
of the special committee of insurance
commissioners to investigate the COM
panies under fire, declares that the
only real solution of the problem is
for the state to engage in industrial
insurance in connection with working
mems compensation. There is a COM
mission now working in Michigan on
the question OF employers liability
and workingmen's compensation, and
it is the intention of Commissioner
Palmer to submit to this body data
in his possession, with a view of hav-
ing 1t recommend to- the governor and
the legislature the establishment of a
state industrial insurance company.
