The Hack. Tax Collector.
Uy examining tho County record
it la learned that during the mint two
yoara there hna been collected f H.&85.U7
of back taxes, the ontiro amount being
collected by the County Clerk. Mr.
Watts haa made It a apeeial feature of
ilia work to notify jieoplo of tho amounts
duo on their lamia, and whilo in many
eaaoa it haa required aa high a a dozen
lettera to get the matter antiafactorily
arranged before tho money would bo
forthcoming, Mr. Watt has pernovored
lit tho matter and finally auecoedod In
collecting tho money. Of course it la
impoBaiblo for tho Clerk to devoid his
wholo time to that particular w'ork, but
when tho Clerk had a aparo moment
from other duties ho waa devoting hia
time to that line of work. Tho Increime
of work in the County Clerk's otlieo haa
bson very great during the past four or
five years, and Mr. W atts has been en
ergetic and very ambitious to see that
no duty was neglected. With a reputa
tion for reliability and trust worthiueH,
ambitiouB and careful, hia cll'ort hue been
to maintain his uood reputation and
servo the people in an honorable and
creditable manner. Tho people of this
County will demonstrate their opinion
of such an olllccr by giving him a very
large volo on the 4th of June. As lo
the collection of hack taxes wo want it
understood that to Mr. Watts Is due the
credit for the largo hum of money which
has been received (rum that source, and
to no other olllcor. In his ollleearoall
tho books, records mid documents by
which tho process is followed nnd pur
sued, anil through bin (illoi t, as we have
stated before, the money waa collected.
'J'ho Independent Candidate.
A few days ago this little recital ap.
pearedln tho Note and Comment col
iimn 01 tin; Oreiiiniiin. It 111 ..u
hning so extremely applicable In bo
many casea ami its moral so extromely
", wu nun as inougn tome of our
roiiiiorn niigntonjoy it. i
"Unco upon a time a man who had
not been nominated by any convention
thought ho would run for ollle.o as an
Independent candidal. Winn h uki.d
a man of experience what he thought of
wu vi'iiiuro, mo nuter aaiu:
' 'Lot mo toll yoti tho story of the
aiilmiils In the Jungle:
" 'Onco the minimis in the Jungle de
cided to hold an election to chooso a
king. Ho they divided Into two parties
and ono parly put up the tiger, and tho
other party put up the elephant, both of
whom were noted as wise animals.
Other animals were nominated for
minor olllccs, but the ass, who wanted
an olllco, got no nomination
" They can't turn me dow'n', said the
ass, 'I'll run as on independent,' and
he did.
" 'H'sin tho animals asked the ele
phant What lie Would do If nhu-leil klnu
and he said he would run out the snakes
and appoint only wise animals to olllco.
And thev asked the tiizor what he would
do, and ho said ho would divide up the
unearned increment among the animals,
and have government ownership of the
rivers and feeding grounds, and allow
savage animals to ravage the borders.
Then they went to the ass and asked
him what ho would do if elected.
ou can search me', said the ass.
'Hut Instead of that, thev voted (or
tho elephant and tho tiger, and tho ele
phant was elected, while the nss got
only the votes of himself and hia relations,'
" 'Hut, said tho iiiilenendunt rnndl-
daU', 'independent candidates aro not
at all like asses.'
" 'Oil. I don't know.' said the man of
experience.' "
Aiuekeil lty a Hull.
An infuriated hull attacked two ilairv
hands at .Noon's place, at Warren, one
day hint week, and camo near killimr
one oi iiiem.
Joe Hens and Ills brother, while at
work among tho cattle, were suddenly
aiiacaeii ny uie ouu. Uiitclilng one oi
the brother on his horns, tho Infuriated
animal tossed him into the air three
times. The hruisod and frightened man
fell into a ditch the last time he came
low n, thus saving his life, aa tho bull
otim not reach hi in there.
Tho other brother unveil Mmn1F hv
dimhing a high stump which hannened
to be near by. Tho vicious annual at
onco charged iijioii the stump, making
repeated ellorts to mill it down, rortu
nauily for tho man who was "treo l,"
the stump waa well rooted, and refused
to yield to tho terrific rushes of the bull.
It seems that Mr. Noon, owner of the
animal, knew he was dangerous, and
hud his horns sawed, leaving only shoit
slubus. This evidently prevented tho
bull from killing Joe Hess while tosmng
nun tip and down in the air. As It was,
tho man sustained painful injuries.
Five of hia rib wero broken, and it is
possible that he sustained interim! In
juries which may prove fatal. He la
now at Ht. Vincent's Hospital, where he
is receiving medical attention.
This is said to bo the fourth victim of
this hull, he having previously attacked
ami wounded three other men atditl'er-
ent times.
There is much likelihood that the
owner of tho animal will lie called upon
to straighten tho matter np in a finan
cial way, as the injured man has placed
no matter in nanus oi ins lawyer.
Iluylng Oregon Cattle.
MeKinlev nrices for cattle and sheen
aro prevailing in Kastern Oregon those
dsvs as is- evidenced by the following
dispatch from Arlington, on April 30th :
' Aai.moTON, April 80. The Spring in
flux of cattlebuvers is now on, and Ar
lington is the headquarter for quite a
contingent of cattlemen from the moun
tain aud Missouri Valley states.
"The latest cattlemen to arrive here
aro J. K. Kevnolds, of Lincoln, Neb.,
and T. N. 1'roilitt, of Baker City. Mr.
Reynolds is after two truiuloads of cat
tle, while Mr. l'rolllt is after all ho can
gut. There wero several sheepbnyers
hero, hut they have all left, ono of them
assigning aa the reason for their leaving
that 'only millionaires could now buy
ahoop in Kastorn Oregon and Washing
ton,' they claiming that the price here
ia higher than in Wyoming and the
Kastern feeding states. This stiffness
in tho local sheep market appears to be
caused hy the strong home demand, the
big profit of this and last year having
stimulated everybody to go into tho
sheep business.
"A band of 1000 cattle aro to arrive in
Arlington tomorrow for shipment by
the O. H. A N. to Montana. They aro
mostly (.ill Ham county cattlo, all choice
animals, and woro brought up by Will
Urown, of Hniption creek, and Will
Butler, of this place, aud aro to bo re
ceive! 1 by Henry Solien, tho well-known
cattle-buyer of Montana."
II. M. I'owlur tor Hlierlff.
Tho candidate, for RhorifT on the Re
publican ticket is a stranger in politics,
and for that raason we deem it expedi
ent that the voters of tho County be
mado familiar with him through the
press. Ho has teen in business at
(loble for sovoral years, in fact, has re
sided in this Comity nearly all his life.
Hois a thorough business man and a
capablo person to trust the nllairs of the
Hhorilfa with. The people of tho
County can depend that if Mr. Fowler
is elected to the ofllco to which he as
pires, ho will not be mado a tool of by
any clique or faction. He ia no man's
man, being independent to act accord
ing to hia own good judgment, and that
is conceded to be of high order by those
who have had business dealings with
him for ninny years in the neigborhood
whore he ia liest known. Mr. Fowler's
election to the oftice of Sheriff will
mean an honest, careful, economic ad
ministration of tho ail'airs of tho ofllco,
aud the people of tho County will never
have cause to regret that they put hint
there. Ho is particularly popular in
his homo precinct, and will got a very
largo voto throughout tho county.
