Southern Pacific Taxes
Reduced by Board

The Board of Control met this morn
ing in the tax commissioner s office and
after authorizing some minor changes
in the building at Champoeg made nee
essary by the fact that logs cannot be
peeled at this time of the year, the
changes being recommended by Judge
d 'Arcy who has charge of the erection
of the building, took up the matter of
public utility taxes and especially the
o. w. r. & N. and the Southern Pa
eific.
The Southern Pacific assessment for
the car had been tentatively raised
about 100000 and this was reduced
about $S00,000 making a net reduc-
tion of about 100000. The board went
into the matter pretty thoroughly and
decided the reduction was only fair to
the company, as it was made on the
Eugene-Coos Bay branch which is a
losing proposition and will continue to
be such for some time yet. The board
expressed itself as being unwilling to
add heavily to the expense of opening
up new territory by the railroadS, and
so discouraging the good WORK. 1t was
for this reason alone the reduction was
made. AS it is the southern Pacific
win pay taxes on about $44,00O,00, me
amount being $65l, 900
On the other hand the o. w. r & N,
was raised about $S00,000, making n
net raise for the two corporations Of
100000
Some minor matters completed the
work of the session.

Law to Segregate

court today declared unconstitutional
the Louisville, Ky, ordinance, which
sought to segregate white and negroes
into different districts, Similar ordinan-
ees in Baltimore, st, Louis, Richmond,
Va, and other cities are affected. The
kentucky state courts were reversed.
The court held that the ordinance was
invalid because it was straight out
arbitrary violation of the rights of a
certain class of citizens.
"There exists situation which, how
