Count v Judge Wonacbtt says that Mrs. Alice Rogers, the woman who was caught by the Lane county au thorities while attempting to secure railroad transportation under the pre tense that she was ill and needed aid, was a visitor in this city some time ago and was successful in obtaining a ticket for herself and children to Medford.

Calkins has returned from Salem where he was called fgether with other asses sors of the state, to appear before the state board of tax commissioners Ho reports an excellent meeting and says that much good will result therefrom. Interviewed relative to what took place during the meeting Mr. Calkins said that each assessor in the sate was questioned as toiiis manner of assessing, with a view of ascertaining whether or not the tax laws of the state are being recogniz ed by the several officials. Mr. Cal kins says that on fault was found with the manner of assessing prop erty In Douglas .county, such valna- I tions having been based on the true lUBii vuiue. cutter was tne oniv county to fix the valuations at 50 per cent of the cash value of the property. The commission decided to search the mortgage records here after, it being their intention to as sess all mortgages and notes -regardless of public sentiment. It Is snid that the commissioners deem the note and mortgage assessment law unfair, but nothwithstanding such fact, be lieve that the laws should be enforc ed to the letter. In other words thev argue that the best manner in which to get a law repealed is to enforce It that the people at large may learn of Its worthlessness. HOUN D-OHM.
