The old county board of commission
ers held an, adjourned meeting last
Thursday to wind up the business of the
year. The bonds of all the newly
elected county officers were approved,
wnose terms begaq July 1st. Mr. Mum
power having completed his contract of
making the fill at the Baker'i Ferry
bridge, it was ordered that he be paid
the balance due, $325. It wai ordered
that the error in Road Supervisor
Hornschuch's bill be rectified. The
claim of J. E. Smith, road supervisor,
wsb ordered paid in full. On petition of
A. B. Cole it was ordered that the
Weismandel and Mack road be resur
veyed, and W. W. Irwin, Chris Kocker
and Jacob Reick were appointed view
ers. One hundred and twenty-five dol
lars was appropriated for the bicycle
path in the vicinity of Canby and Bar
iow. W. P. Kirchem, the newly elected
road supervisor, of the Logsn district,
was in town Monday. He stated that
some of the potato fields were becoming
affected with the blight, that may yet
cause serious damage. At first the vine
have the appearance of being scalded,
which continues to spread until the
yines are practically dead, dwarfing the
growth of the potatoes acd causing black
splotches. Last year the blight did not
affect the potatoes seriously, as it was
later in the season when it begun. Mr.
Kirchem states that the rains have de
layed the work of graveling the road
improvement to some extent, but a de
termined effort will be to get the farm
teams at work as soon as haying is over.
It is the intention to have the work com
pleted before the rainy season begins in
the fall.
Monday morning all the elected
county officers, whose terms of office be
gin on July 1st, took their places.
The same arrangement of chiefs and
deputies continue in the sheriff's and i
recorder's offices. In the clerk's office
E. H. Cooper is now clerk, and Elmer
Dixon is chief deputy. It is understood,
however, that O; D. Eby. of Marquam,
will be the chief deputy after a few
months. The order also is reversed in
the treasurer's cftiee. Jacob Shade is
now deputy, while Alfred Luelling is the
chief officer. The county judge is a
hold-over. J. C. Zinser, county school
superintendent elect, does not assume
his duties until August 1st, and Assessor
Eli Williams does not succeed himself
until January 1st, 1901. It is a' notable
fact that every officer or deputy in the
court house, who received a nomination,
was elected. The county judge, three
commissioners, school superintendent,
assessor, recorder and surveyor are re
publicans, while the sheriff, clerk, treas
urer and coroner are citizens.
Considerable inquiry has been made
as to the meaning of the rows of black
figures painted on feign boards with a
white background placed parallel to the
railroad track on each side of the water
tank, nearhe Southern Pacific depot.
David Clouse, who is a walking ency
clopaedia on railroad signs and hiero
glyphics, says these i-ignboardg are
placed there so that engineers can ascer
tain the exact spot to stop when it is de
sired to take water. The combined
length of engines and tenders are not all
the same, but every engineer knows the
exact length of his own engine and ten'
der. TheBe figures on the signboards
indicate the points where engines and
tenders of designated length should
stop so that the water spout can be
brought down to the manhole in the
rear of the lender that receives the wa
ter for the boiler, without any unneces
sary delay. formerly the engine
would pull up at the water tank, and
the breman would pull down the spout
and and hnd it at varying feet distance
from the manhole. The train was
pulled backward and forward, jarring
the passengers and causing a delay of
several minutes oftentimes, before
stream of water could be forced into the
boiler. It is different now under the
new mathematical contrivance. The
engine is stopped at exactly the right
place, andinar instantthe fireman hasa
stream of water pouring into the engine
