Every year, as the country la getting- cleared up, the "wood rat" is disappearing", and at the r resent time, and for a year past, the price of wood has been soar- ing higher than ever known In Lyle. Just now the high price of wood, coupled with the announcement that the Nebraskan who recently paid sev eral thousand dollars for the old Bur ford place at Centerville, would not close the deal for that property until he was assured he could purchase a wood lot in the nearby timber belt, many of the farmers who have no wood lot to indulge in serious thought for future wood supply. The Nebras kan says the lull view of the standing timber on the Simcoe range, north of Klickitat Valley. has an inviting aspect to him. He further states that every farmer in Klickitat should havjs a wood lot and It should be conserved as a part of the assets of the farm.

A Koier states that there have 'been more new compa nies admitted to do business In the state sinee March 1 than were admitted dur ing the entire year of 1C08. On the theory that competition Is a good thing for business, those interested In Insurance matters are congratulating themselves on the manner In which the new law is working out. In the past month five companies have been ad mitted, including three life companies, one surety company and one Ore com pany. The recent additions to the list are the Western Union Ufe of Spokane, wilh a capital stock of $200,000 and doing a life and accWent business, and the Fidelity Deposit Company of Mary land, capital stock (2.000.000, doing a fidelity and surety bond business. Jesse Etearns has bean appointed resident general agent of the latter concern, with headquarter at Portland. The new law, while It la said to offer fully as much security to the public, is much less severe on the Insurance com panies and under the operation of the new code it is expected tha there will be a big Increase in the number of con cerns writing Insurance In this state. Section S724 of the code has been amend ed so as to require a license fee of J150 from each fire Insurance company doing business in the state, an Increase from S.V). while the license fee for life, acci dent, casualty and surety companies re mains the same, $100. Surety Bonds Cut Down. Under the old law surety companies were required to deposit with the state fcpeclfled securities to the amount of Jo0. 0U0. but in the new law this provision nas oeen wiped out. Fire Insurance companies. If they have a paid up capl tal and unimpaired surplus amounting to J200.000 and have a certificate of authority from the state of New York, shall de posit ti'5.000 In specified securities with the- Insurance Commissioner of Oregon er a surety bond In that amount. In caae of companies foreign to the Ttnlted States, having a certificate from the proper authorities of any other state having an Insurance department show Ing authority to do business In said state and a certificate showing a de posit by said company of not leas than $200,000 In cash or approved securities, for the security of the policy-holders of aueh company In the United States, a de posit or Kb.uo in securities or a surety pond for such amount Is required. Companies not supplied with a certifi cate of authority from the State of New York will be required to deposit $60,000 In cash or specified securities the same as under the old law. The New York de partment la singled out In the Oregon code for the reason that It has been es tablished for some time and has set high standard. Fraternal Orders Not Included. Fraternal orders and co-operative socie ties, associated or Incorporated for the sole purpose of mutual protection and relief of its members only and for the payment of stipulated sums of money to the families of its deceased members, or for property of Its members only de rtroyed by fire, and not for pront., are declared not to be lire or life Insurance companies In the sense and meaning of the Insurance laws of the state, and are exempt from the operation of sucli laws. Stringent, regulations are provided for the control of all companies admitted to do buslenss In the state, in case of their i failure to live up to the laws. While surety companies are not re quired to deposit a large sum as hereto fore, the puhllc Is safeguarded by a number of regulations In the law. The law requires the company. In addition to a fee of 5 to be paid with Ha appli cation, to pay a 2 per cent tax upon Its net premiums, an ascertained from a verified statement to be tiled with the Insurance department. The law provides a penalty for the forming of compacts, trusts or combina tions among insurance companies. Increase" in Fay of Circuit Judge 1 heads what Is known as the Municipal uwuoinnip ticKet.

This Spring has been a very busy one for the farmer, mechanic and com mon laborer. The opening and building of the irrigation ditches has furnished a great deal of work for men and teams at good nag-s. The superintendent -.f tho work has been compelled to go out of the county to get hea y draft horses to do tlie scraper work. It is thought that at least three of the ditches will be rsadv for the May irrigation.

(Special.) Many of the wheat-raisers residing on the prairie near Lyle are not supplied with wood lots. They have hitherto given the matter no thought and when they wanted a Winter's supply of fuel they called on the less nrosner. ous neighbor who was clearing land or bad plenty of standing timber and who would make no more charge than INPIAN FHiHTEK AND FIONEER OF '49 DIKS AT PENDLETON. City Municipal ticket. The point at issue is ine completion or abandonment of the McKenzie River power plant, already be gun oy tne city the cost of - which is estimated to be about $130,000. The work was stopped on this project by an in junction, and the election will be held before the injunction case is settled. Matlock pledges the people that he will complete the plant If elected. Kng- ham says that- he is in favor of the citv ownlng Its own plant, but he does not com'j out for any particular plant, and says that he will not decide until the in junction suit is settled. He says, how ever, he can promise the people that work, will begin on a new plant within 90 days after his election. Bingham also says that he will submit at once the proposition to put In a municipal light plant and if the people vote it, he will have the city lighted by the new plant within 90 days. Since both sides are in favor of submitting the light ques tion to the people there is little discus sion on that point. Big Vote Will Be Polled. Both tickets have held a special meet ing with the voters in East Eugene. To night the Municipal Ownership ticket held a big mass meeting at the County uourtnouse. Tomorrow night the Bing ham forces have engaged the Opera house, with a brass band and an orchestra- Indications are that a big vote will be polled. There are 1800 registered voters in Eugene and every man will be urged to go to tne polls. The corrupt practices act will probably make Monday's election the most unique in the history of the city. The leaders and their supporters would ordinarily wnen excitement is so high have out many carriages and a great many work ers about the polls, but the new law forbids this. On the Matlock ticket the following men are candidates: Councilmen. First Ward, T. H. Garrett (re-election); Sec ond Ward, R. B. Henderson; Third Ward, Sherman Heller (re-election); Fourth ward, P. J. Berger (re-election). On the Bingham ticket the candidates are for Councilmen: First Ward, M. Svarverud; Second Ward, George Fisher (re-election); Third Ward, Charles Llt- tlefleld; Fourth Ward, C. P. Barnard. For Treasurer Jesse G. Wells is on the Matlock ticket and Frank Relsner on the other. R. S. Bryson, candidate for City .Recorder, has no opposition. The mass meeting of municipal owner ship voters at the County Courthouse tonight crowded the Circuit Courtroom to the doors, filled the jurybox and scores of them stood up during the speak ing. R. M. Day presided at the meet ing and addresses were made by Mayor J. E. Matlock, John M. Pipes, J. Morris, B. F. Dorns, M. S. Barker and Lark Bilyeu. The speakers were all enthusi astically received and feeling ran high. A sensation was sprung by Mr. Bilyeu. who called on J. M. Pipes to make statement relative to the obstruction of the Willamette Valley Company in its endeavor to defeat the city in the com pletion oi its Aiciienne ruver power plant Pipes said that J. W. Storment, through whose land the city nought canal right of way, yesterday testified that the attorneys of the Willamette Val ley Company had tried to buy Storment's land and had offered to stand all costs of defending him if he would refuse the city any access through his property, and that the company would pay more than any price the city would give for the property.

Ten School Buildings to Be Erected This Year Oonnty High Schools Are Popular. ALBANY. Or., April S. Special.) More high schools will be established in Linn County this year than In any ten years of the county's history. Coincident with the establishment of higher schools, more school buildings, and also better ones, will oe erected than In any previ ous year for half a century. The enact ment of the County High School plan Is largely responsible for this remarkable growth In Linn County's educational fa cilities. There are three 12-grade high schools In the county already those at Albany, Lebanon and Brownsville. Halsey, Har risburg, Selo and Bodaville will all es tablish full high school courses next Fall, the three former now having 10 grade schools and the latter but a com mon eight-grade school. This will give Linn County seven four-year high schools. While the 10-grade high schools step mto the 12-grade class, a number of dis tricts which now maintain only eight grade schools will add a two-year high school course. Among these are the schools of Tangent, Bhedds, Plainview, Lacomb, Crawfordsvllle, Sweet Home, Oakville. Mill City and the district on the Unn County side of the North San tiam River opposite the town of Gates. All high schools in the county will be gin operation next Fall under the County High School plan. Under this system, each district will receive from the county fund 20 cents a day for every pupil doing high school work. To come under the provisions of this plan, a school must maintain et least ten grades, and every district which now has a suitable school building will rise to this grade to get the benefit of the plan. Several splendid school bulldincs will be erected in different parts of the coun ty this Summer. Albany will build a J60.000 stone high school building. Leba non will also erect a big school building tnis summer. a. structure la planned. A schoolhouse will also be built at Plainview for a union high school to be started next Fall to accommodate high school pupils from several adjoin ing districts. County School Superintend ent W. I Jackson estimates that at least ten new schoolhouses will be erected In country districts this Summer. The Sodavllle school district has re- cently acquired the building of the Min eral Springs College, which closed its doors a year ago, and will use the splen did building for an up-to-date high school. At Mill City, where the districts on both the Linn and Marion County sides of the North Santlara River were recently consolidated, a $8000 school build ing has Just been completed. Coincident with the growta of school facilities, teachers' salaries have " been increased materially during the past two years, and altogether more progress is being made along educational lines in Linn County now than ever before. tourette.
