rVTV BS STATU TAXES.
Columbia county will pay next year
.0108 imt oent of all the monev eollevtad
by the atate from the various counties as
atate taxes. The state tax is not now
levied as formerly. The new law oro-
vides for making the levy on an entirely
different principle. It has been the cus
tom to levy a percentage on the total
taxable property of the county. Until
1906 the levy will be based on the aver
age valuation ot taxable property for the
past five years, and by this method for
the current five years the share of Co
lumbia county will be as given above.
After that time each county's share
will be figured oa the average expendi
tures, roads and bridges excepted, dar
ing we current nve years. That is. the
expenditures ot all the counties will be
added together and each county's share
will be the proportion that each bears
to the whole. As this proportion is, so
will tbe atate tax of each county be fig
ured. For iustancc, if the state desires
to raise $600,000, the proportion from
this county would be .0106, or (5,300,
which is, perhaps, about tbe same sum
as would result from the 3-mill lew
on the present valuation. Curry county
will pay the smallest percent, being but
.0040, while Multnomah will pay the
tarveet, being .8123 per cent. This plan
of levying tbe atate tax will endure tor
five years, when another order of things
will be operative. Article 4 of section
of the new law reads as follows:
"In order to ascertain the proportion
of such taxes to be paid by the several
counties, said state officers shall ascer
tain from the reports of expenditures of
the several counties, on file in the office
of the secretary of state, the average
amount oi wo expenditure ot eacn
county during period of five years;
and each county shall pay such propor
tion of state taxes as its average amount
of expenditures in all of tbe counties of
the state, sncb computations to be made
by said state officers in January, 1905,
and in Jannary in each fifth year there-
alter, until tbe January, 1805, compu
tation use

The following is a synopsis of the law
regulating tax collections hereafter,
which was passed by the last legislature :
Tuxes paid ou or before March loth
succeeding the date of the levy will be
allowed a rebate ot three per cent, pro
vided that the rolls reach the sheriff
prior to that date.
Taxes paid between the 15th and Slot,
both dates inclusive, will not be allowed

Them is a law in Oregon to tbe effect
that all persons doing business for the
state, in advertising for bids for any
kind of work, material or produce, must
insert in tbe advertisement a clause giv
ing Oregon's produce, manufactures and
materials ot any kind the preference.
Where it is impossible to secure what is
required wiimn our own borders, it is
rendered obligatory upon the party tran
sacting tbe business lor tbe state to ac
cept that which is partly produced or
uwnuiaciurea witnin the state, where
the prices are such as will warrant it.
How often do we see advertisements for
bids on state contracts without any ref
erence to the clause that gives our own
people chance.
Tax secretary of the interior has
handed down a decision of great import
ance relative to tbe tenure of homestead
claims. He holds that the homesteader
must actually live upon the land
nied on or his entry will be null
and void. A person who haa a home-
aiead entry can go to some place and
work to earn a living for a time, if nec
essary, but his borne must be on the
land, as nothing else will take the place
of residence and improvement. Those
wno ten nomestead entry men that tbey
need only to go to the land occasionally
and stay over a night or two in tbe
cabin erected as an excuse for a dwel
ling, do injustice to tbe entrymen who
must lose tneir claims by accepting it.
Because some entries are made and the
land patented under such circumstances,
when no contest is entered, it must not
oe lnierrea tnat tbe law requires noth
ing more than a cabin, little fence, or
clearing and an occasional visit to land
embraced in a homestead entry.

A SocTBXur democratic paper haa
this to say of President Roosevelt:
"The finest trait of the American char
acter is love of fair play, and no better
illustration of the force of it could be
naa than is lound in tbe public attitude
toward President Roosevelt. . A few
months ago he was the object of good
natured raillery. His exploits were re
garded as something ou the Munchausen
order. He seemed better fitted to chase
tbe wild beasts of the rocky West than
to fill tbe post of statesman and presi
dent of the senate. How Mr. Roosevelt
nas not changed. He is still Teddy, tbe
Rough Rider. But tbe people have
changed. Teddy is now president of the
United States, He is new to bis job,
and the job is not an easy one. The
people want him to bave a fair trial
and do the best tbing that is in him ;
and they will not put a single block in
his way; on the contrary, they hasten
to smooth the path, hoping most sin
cerely that he will make a success of his
career. We have not ear rendered our
opinion, political or otherwise; we are
as true as ever to what may be called
our politics, but, for tbe while, we lay
partisanship aside and say: 'Go ahead
Teddy 1 Win out, if you can!' "

I asked the uelnlibors If the barn was

I asked them If the cow was injured
