Klertrle Line Accident. About 5 o'clock Sunday afternoon an accident occurred on the electric lino just outside the eld Portland limits A south-bound cur had waited on Baldwin's swilcth (or the north-bound car to pass, and the latter being late, the conductor of the south-bour.d car etncluded to try to make the next switch. As the car rounded a curve a short distance be yond the switch, the motoruian aaw the north-bound car hearing down upon him. Both motormen reversed and set brakes vigorously, but too late to prevent a col lision. The cam came together with sucli force that the front platforms and ! lllr,v iront canopies were considerably dam aged. Neither of the cars loft the track. Motorman F TIIK Bit SKIFF RKI'LIRS.

No serious consequences are ex pected to result from the accident. Three passengeis a lady and two gentlemen were also slightly bruised, but nothing more serious resulted. The damage to the cars was slight, and there was no interruption to travel over the line.' School Notice. The public schools of this city will 0en Octoler 2d, and the board has divided the district for the present as fol lows, to-wit: Beginning at the bluff on Seventh street and i uniting thence along street to John tj.

All children of fitst grade (or chart ' class) and all children of the next or second grade living south of above lines will assemble at the new school house. All of the above-named grades living Was he not Invited several times to pay or show cause why lie should not pay and yet he never offered to do so. He himself says he had Hot had time. Why then, should not he be made to pay his taxes like other folks? Oh, that's too easy. Is not he the ohkat bknatoh from Clackamas who owns a dam and a sawmill and h ires a whole doxen of men and payi'em l In "chips and whetstones," that is lie origi nally owned a part of it. It is the old story of the lion and the lainh tying down to gether. They got up all lion. Gladstone, sawmill, dam and all belong to Cross now. To sum up, the taxis long delinquent? l es. The records show it to tie a valid tax? Yes. He was Untitled time and attain to pay in order to avoid a levy. Why I then is the levy 'unwarranted?" On, I . am me oai.tT iijiiiii trom uacnamaa who cui down Uie salary or the slienttsall over the state and any inlererferrnce w ith one who has done so much forth state must be dictated by partisan malice. That's playing "Injun1' and I little expected that. The "Hmi." senator admits that he pays no tax to speak ol but Illumes the assessor for that. Just look at the list of property he owns in Clackamas county and then say that the charge uf being a tax shirk is not sustained. H.E.Cross, pnrt of Strickland claim :m I'll A report was current upon the streets that L.

Anyone who ha a grievance hi the matter of tax can set It forth In an alllilavil to b referred to the county court, . Some ninety have tiled such according to Mr, Cross, twenty-eight of these reler to mortgages. II cites I. 0. Clutter, now what was this ease, a new mortgage was given (or an old, for the same debt, both are of record ami taxml. Should both Ixi paid? II. 0. lnskeep hail a note of WO, gave It In loth assessor, afterward, bolorvjoly 1st took a mortgage to socnr same debt, both are of record and taxed. Another ease of double assessment Is Francis Welch, an txactly similar case. T. P. Handall'i father had a mortgage which uraa paid during his lut sickness, was never able to get to the records after wards. His hell knew nothing of the matter until untitled of the ta. These are the kind of cases that the "Hon." senator j would bold up to th people of Clackamas county, as showing that people are excused from paying their honest taxes In my olllce, while the great "Cross" is not In It. The fact Is he would hide his miserable tax shirking record behind the atllilavlls of honest men, behind the (lladiton Heal Estate Company, behind anything to con ceal It from the gasuol the honest taxpayers or Clackamas county, and who can blame him. I am sure I would not want to iu-ct such a record. Now as to the fahiiloua sums I am mak ing out of the sheriffs office I will gladly turn ever to Mr. Cms the proceeds of my office Tor a thousand, yes, fifteen hundred dollars less than he figure out for the last four months. I will ile even better than that if he really means business, Now In closing this controversy on my part I wish to say that I always Intend to furnish brains enough In my nlllc (by deputy If necessary) to run my office In a way to lie approved by the honest public. I think If Mr Cross would let the deputy's brains, or brains from some other source run Ins olllce he would pay his taxes lik a man, and never b guilty of an attempt to play the sneak wlili a ilcniocrntlr sheriff. To sum up again. The charge of partisan malice Is sustained as follows: Three or four republicans who refused to pay their 1 honest taxes were made to do so, A whole family of republicans a lio sought to shirk were actually madelopay. And democrats are actually allowed to go in and pay their taxes, without being levied uihmi at all. Areall republican alio refuse to pav levied upon? Yes. Are democrat who refuse to pay leviei upon? Yes. Hon then 1 the charge of partisan malice sustained. Oh, there aere more republican who refuted than democrats and the great "Hon" setintor alio built a tlaiu across the Clacka mas for the public good and ahoadvird these ople not to pay to get a Job, had hi buggy horse taken and so the charge of "l'artisau Malice" I sustnimsl.

At Shively's hall, Satuiday, Septem ber 23rd, an exceptionally entertaining bill is to be presented to the people of Oregon City. Wonderful jugglers from the Orient and artists noted in our coun try as well as in England, combine in innumerable feats of strength, tricks, songs and dances and many other per formances to please the eve and charm the ear. The members of the Nippon Roval Japanese trou;e perforin feats in ladder-climbing and balancing, jug gling and legerdemain, many of which have never been equaled by Japanese companies visiting this country.
