We deem it uncles to enter into detail In this report as to the exact manner In which the work wa done, as you have watched tbe same, and we have consulted often in regard to various point in ques tion. We shall give you, as briefly as possible, tbe result of our examination, and note first, that we tound the follow ing tax to appear unpaid on the 1893 tax roll, and that tbe lame was not carried to the 1893 delinquent roll, and wa therefore not advertised and (old : fAUR UNI WHOIBTAX ART 61 17 J W Ursir $14 08 (In 'iU Klla L Kerrin, ROnbiirn.. 4 20 III II K CraiK, sherlfs au'mt. .. fi US 110 111 Ha Bruce " I 4ij 117 M ike Jordan " " 3 1 ll 2 Narah C Lawrence " 12 MJ 1 JO 11 D Miller jo 8o IH 1(1 Daniel I) Miller " 4 20 1131 4 David Van llanten " 6 l" 1.10 10 Kiiiina 0 Wells " 2(15 1 8 T K McClelland " 1 4!i 177 I'i Ira 0 UamlHiw " S f.2 loll 11 I) C Launirette " 23 M 3!i OWli I'auhliuan " 7 in Total $100 02 In explanation of the above it should be said that W li. l'aulman'i tax a peara paid on the delinquent roll, but that il Is by an error in placing opposite his name the number of a receipt, 6118, issued to Albert I'asold, whose tax is on line 4 of aame iiane. By this error Mr. I'asold' property was wrongly sold and Mr. l'aulman'i property, on which the tax was not paid, was not advertised. There should lie on file with the county clerk each aflidaxit, swearing oflT taxes, but we were unable to find any of these for 18U3 tax and had to rely entirely on the Hit made and copied by the aherifj In tho delinquent roll. We find no evi dence anywhere that any of the above tax waa sworn off or that it wis a double assessment. It apiears to have tieen simply omitted by Mieiitr Uanong in making up the 181)3 delinquent roll. We have checked Mr. Uaiiong'a work be ginning with March G, 1894, and find be turned over to the treasurer all monies collected by him. Several error were made during his administration in credit ing amount to wrong school district but these will be noted in another place and all errors of this kind there shown. On completing our work on the 1304 original and delinquent roll, represent ing taxes collected by Mr. Maddock, we find the following taxes to appear un paid on tbeoiigitial and delinquent rolls and lo have been omitted in making up the advertised list, and were therefore not advertised and sold. Neither is there any evidence of these amounts having been paid since. Among the allldaviti on file, there are none showing any of this property to have double assessment or eirors.

In as much a tbe first sale was declared illegal, all of tbe property belonging to persons named above should have been advertised the second time, and its omission from the delinquent r.ll by Mr. Maddock would naturally cause hi successor in office to omit it. For this reason therefore we include these two in the above list. We found further t.iat Mr. Grace in making his list for advertising from the 1895 delinquent roll formerly made by Mr. Maddock, omitted the following property which at that time, and doea now, apar unpaid on tbe roll, thus making an amount, in total, nearly equal to that ortitted by Mr. Maddock thereby making tax to the amount of $708 74 which ha not been advertised and eold, and of course a valid aale cannot be made unless tbe property i properly adver tised. 6 6 6 7 7 8 9 14 14 14 2! 22 85 80 80 lr2 120 11 1.15 147 147 147 147 147 23 John Bayes 10 07 25 K J Bcatie, trustee 4 01 29 Charles B BeilinKer 4 94 1 B I Benell 10 M0 A Bennett 1 32 Celia Blackwell n -JQ W A Brougbton, Estate of 27 30 M M Coleman 2 47 Edward Collins ' 1 10 Luke Comer H 70 M C Don hoe 13 87 Helen Doney 4 W 11 H Jobnsoti, Trustee. .. 13 00 John Kaiiaxs 7 41 K B Kellry g 81 W M Miller 2 84 H I.

Tbere are many cases where assessment of per sonal property only were made and the tax has not been collected, but we pre sume the sheriffs have, as stated in their returns of the delinquent rolls, made due search for the property and tound none. One thing is very noticeable, however, namely, that a yery small per cent, of I purely personal proiierty tax is ever col lected.

We submit the following statement to sliow errors in various funds and school districts, made partly in entering on sheriff's cash register and partly in turn ing money over to tbe treasurer, and not subsequently corrected. We have not attempted to show under whose adminis tration these errors were made, as there is no responsibility connected with tbe matter; suffice it to say, however, that part of th errors were made by each of Sheriffs Ganong, Maddock and Grace.

Weinhard's hall was filled Tuesday evening by the mom'iers of tbe Ancient Order of United Workmen and thair friends gal tiered to enj y the hospitality of this popular onijr. An instrumental duet by the Misses Dra,ier latmclieJ the carefully prepared program and Chas. II. Dye then delivered the a ldreaj of Welcome in behalf of Falls City lodge, , No. 69, and referred eloquently to tbe fidelity and faithfulness of the A. 0. U. W. in paying its obligations, never hay ing failed once during the 30 years of its existence. Mr. Dye said the real mean ing of A. O. U. W. was "Alwaj Over shadows Unprotected Womanhood". Grand Recorder Clark made a happy response to the address of welcome and said that tbe A. 0. U. W. wa not only larger than any other beneficiary organ ization in America, but that it was steadily growing and never intended to die so long as bnmanity existed upon the earth. The address of tbe evening was made by Grand Master E. Werlin, of Port land, who gave a particularly interest ing exposition of the merits of the great order he represents. He paid a feeling I tribute to tbe memory of John Jordan Upcharch, its honored founder and de clared the A 0. U. W. to be the peer of all fraternal organizations, having put $2)00 in each of 30,000 homes in this land. It was a thoroughly practi cal talk, directed to practical people and won the fullest and most practical ex pression of approval his hearers could accord. This address waa followed by an ex cellent musical and titerary program by some of Oregon City's favoriie perform ers. The hall was beautifully decorated with flags, bunting and flowers, tbe work of the ladies of the Degree of Hon or. Memorial Arterniatn. Owing to a press of other matter it wsa impossible to make mention last week of the memorial excercises held at Silverton and Hubbard. From the Appeal it is learned that the ! day was appropriately observed at the ! i . -.i i -i Bne"l is. speak, er of wide reputation and his speech was one that occupied tbe attention of the vast audience. He paid a glowing trib ute to the Grand Army. His effort was a grand one " Mr Brownell also deliv ered an aadress in the evening at Liber al ball which is spoken of in the highest terms of praise by those who had the pleasure of listening to it. At Hubbard everything waa nicely ar ranged and went off in a manner that reflected great credit on those who had the matter in charge. The excercises were held in Armory hall and the mus ical part consisted of a ladies' quartette, grand chorus and band. Lincoln's Get tesburg speech was read and Mr. A. S. Dresser, of this city, delivered the ora tion, which a gentleman from Hubbard informs us was one of tbe finest address es ever listened to in that section of the country, an J they have had some of the best orators in the state address them on other occasions. It was logical, elo quent and patriotic, and simply capti vated the immence audience. In tbe afternoon the procession formed and marched to tlie cemetery under escort of the E company, 0. X. G., of Hubbard and II company of Woodburn. The True Remedy. W. M. Repine, editor Tiskilwa, 111., "Chief" says, "We won't deep house without Dr. King's New Discovery for consumption, coughs and colds. Experi mented with many others, but never got tbe true remedy until we used Dr. King's New Discovery. No other remedy can take its place in our home, as in it we have a certain and sure cure for coughs, colds, whooping cough, etc." It is idle to experiment with other remedies, even if tbey are urged on you as just as good as Dr. King's New Discovery. They are not as good, be cause this remedy has a record of cures and besides is guaranteed. It never fails to satisfy. Trial bottles free at Charman & Co's drug store.
