WORK ON BOOKS
The county books are being experted
by J. H. Wilson who was awarded the
contract of going over the books for a
period of ten years for the considera­
tion of $1300. He expects to complete
the work within one year.
The provision of the contract is that
every bill must be examined and
checked up by the warrants. As was
stated in the P ost he will check u)
the books of one official for a period of
two years and then go over the books
of the other officials for the same per­
iod.

THE LATE DONALD G. MITCHELL (IK MARVEL).
Donald O. Mitchell, known all over the world ns Ik Marvel, author of "Rev­
eries of a Bachelor" and "Dream Life,” who died recently at his home in ,
Connecticut, was born in Norwich, Conn., in April, 1822. His father was a 1
clergyman and took personal charge of the early education of the son. implant­ .
ing in his mind many of the beautifully poetic sentiments that made Mr. Mitch­
ell’s work so dear to the hearts of thousands of readers In after life. In his
youth Mr. Mitchell was very delicate and after his graduation went abroad in
search of health. Ills first work to attract general attention was “Reveries of
a Bachelor,” which he produced in 1850.
TO CONSERVE
WATER POWER
C. B. Watson the well-known attor­
ney of Ashland and a member of the
conservation commission appointed by
Governor Chamberlain under the dir­
ection of President Roosevelt, has
the following ta say regarding recent
work of the commission at Salem. Mr.
Watson explains that while the com­
mission is committed to the policy of
all natural ressurces, they deemed it
expedient to provide means of conser
ving what was left of Oregon’s water
power and code, which has just passed
the House, is the first fruit of their la­
bors in a legislative way.
Mr. Watson explained that the pur­
pose of the commission was to make
the water and the power therefrom
available to all the residents of the
state, and not only to a few big cor­
porations, who then could hold-up tile

crued should be protected, but no
right should be considered vested un-
less it was put to a beneficial use.
One of the provisions of the code
that was fought the hardest by the
power and water monoplies was that
proving that no concern should be per-
mittbd to control water for a longer
period than forty years.
As passed by the House, the bill
creates a Board Control, consisting of
the Governor, the Secretary of State
and the State Engineer, which shall
determine all water rights and super­
intend the distribution of all unappro
priated supplies
For the purpose of administering
the system, the state is divided into
two divisions, that section of the state
lying east of the Cascades constituting
one division and Western Oregon the
other. Each division shall be in
charge of a Division Superintendent.
The bill provides that each division
shall be subdivided into as many water
districts as may be deemed necessary
for the convenient administration of
the law. Each of the districts so cre­
ated shall be in charge of a water
master. Parties dissatisfied with the
decisions made by the Board of Cori-
| trol have the right of appeal to the
state Circuit Courts and the Supreme
! Court.
The bill carries an appropriation of
$15,000 per annum. In all probability
the opposition to the bill will concen­
trate its fight in the Senate, where a
similiar measure met its defeat at the
1907 session. —Medford Mail.

Equality with every other foreign
(nationality in the United States, or a
very good and sufficient reason why
¡not, is the demand of the Japanese in
America, according to Takeo Sagora,
Secretary of the Japanese Association
of Colorado.
"We consider ourselves superior as
a race to the Chinese, Coreans and
other Asiatics, and we do not not want
j to be classed with them and will de
mand our rights granted to the Japan-
! ese by treaty and under the Constitu­
tion of the United States to be tieated
on equal terms with the French, Ger­
man or any other Nation,” said the
Secretary.
“The Asiatic scare of the Pacific
Coast amounts to little,” he continued.
“The number of Japanese in the Unit-
j ed States is decreasing and will pro-
i bably continue to do so. There are
I about 4,000 Japanese in Colorado and
I 500 in Denver.”
The statement that there are only
500 Japanese in Denver is denied by
Chief of Police Armstrong who says
that a conservative estimate shows
between 3,000 and 4,000 in this city.

EQUALIZATION MEETING and about two feet deep Sunday.
County Judge J. R. Neil left Mon­
day for Salem in an. endeavor to have
the state tax levy reduced as applied
to Jackson county. Thus having the
county pay in proportion to its value.
Property being assessed higher in Jack-
son county than in other counties of
the state, makes the difference, so
that Jackson county’s rate is in reality
higher than that paid elsewhere.
At the late levied by the state, thi .
county will have to pay some $57,'D"
which should not tic over $40,000 in
comparison with other counties. The
difference in making assessments is re
sponsible.
Judge Neil is accompanied by As
sessor W. T. Grieve and ex-assessor
Peter Applegate. These three will
meet with the state board of equaliza­
tion and different county assessors and
discuss the matter at length.
