Until the tax.-s were advertis-ed they could be paid without any or little additional cost. That is, the man who wailed until the last minute could pay his taxes and save in'erest for eiht or ten month?. If every taxpayer put off the paying of li in trX-9 until the last day and one has the rig'it as mucli as another.it would roet the county severjl thousands of dollars year in interest It has been the h ibit to put off the delinquent pa'e in the interest of politics. The IeeMature at its last session reconiz'd this and in the new tax l.iw thetixes will become delinquent on a certain day and a penalty aJded and neither the sheriff or the board can change this. . Tbe law spoken oi provides for a re fa j le of three per cent if taxes are paid by a certain day and if half are paid by ia the spring the balance van go until fail, otherwise a'l become due. It was the intention to remove the collection of taxe as far from politics as possible and it is it believed this new law will ac complish it. Some four or five years ago all taxes on property not bid in by private parties Wasailuwed to go without the county biddii.g it in. Consequently any person owing taxes for those years has had the right to come in and pay these taxes without penalty or interest. Although if this money bad been paid it would have paid county warrants and stopped interest. In other words tbe county is getting no interest on these taxes but paying interest on county warrants these taxes should take up. On the 5th day of last September the c'erk called the attention of the board to this matter and an order was made to sell the property for these taxes. The clerk prepared the list but so far the sheriff has done nothing and tells the board that the list is in no shape. In Any event the interests of the county are .not receiving any great consideration. Stxpknts at the Wisconsin State Uni versity have p rote.-1 ed against being fed on hash. They should let well enough alone. The h.tsh may be succeeded by prunes. A wox.ts cashier has defaulted. This should end all controversy ovei the que tion whether woman can really fill man's place or pot. Heath of I). V. Tliompmn. David 1. Thompson died last Saturday morning in lVrtland, aged 07 years. He has been in failing health for several month. The cause of his death was pernicious anaemia, due to organic stomach trouble. He came to Oregon in ls53 at the age of 10 years and located in Oregon City. His firet work whs culling cord wood foy Colonel John McCracken. He had learned tbe blacksmith's trade, and his knowledge of ironworking was soon of great benefit to him in this new country. He was the leading figure in building the fWt rai road in Oregon, around the fills of tho Willamette. In 1800 be ws nnnager of the Oregon City Woolen Mills. M'. Thompnou was married in IStil to M ry K. .Mtldrum, a sifter of Mrs. S.rah MoCown, United Slates Surveyor-General Henry Mcldnun and Judge John W. Mfiiliiiin. Hit wife survives him. The family removed fiom Oregon City to Portland in 1876, where they have ince resided. I lit) I 1;IP0 MM 1S 3lX HtXl 1 1 The senators from Oregon, while they have received fair committee places, have not been able to get the best places. Tbe influence that Mitchell could have had by reason of bis old committee place will now be lost to a certain ex tent. Tin's is one of the results of tbe bold-up session of the legislature. Ko man that Oregon could send to the sen ate could or wilt do more for the sfa e tban Mitchell, still tbe pressure for the beet committee place; is so storong that when s member once loies his place it takes time to regain it. In the mean time Oregon will suffer because the Leg islature refused by desperate methods of tbe hold-up to return Senator Mitchell wben it should Lave done so. ' Admikal Schley has been condemned by tbe coort of inquiry on eleven counts. Admiral Dewey signs tbe majority re port as a matter of form and then files a minority report, in which be sustains ficbley on most points. There is no question but what fhe American people are with Schley, and Dewey's version of Warren Is a P,u, ky jf.tii. (McMinnville R-porterJ Dell Witireu is a pliu ky line repairer. On Saturday tie went up ueur Fairdale through the st6rm to repair the telephone line running to Tillamiok, ai d worked by the light of bis lantern a p.trt of that night. He attached his line instrument to the top of a pole and talked with Wal ter Hembree at this station. Warren spent Ubl summer in this city iu the em ploy of the Willamette l'ulp & Paper Co. During the baseball season he played left field for Companv A. H-cher-Van lleve finer The Fischer-Van Oleve company op ened a week's engagement at the Armory ball last uight by presenting "The Luna1 tic?." This is a three-act comedy, and was produced in ft way that won favor with the audience. M is j Babe Fischer fully justified all the commendatory re marks that have been nude about her For one of her age her work is marvelous, and the talent she now dii lays gives promises of a notable cureer in a compar atively short time. She adapted herself easily to the role of the woman who is poesested of resources to meet any oc casion. Her husband, Capt. Kacket, was represented by Zellah Covington, who does good work. B. P. Van Cleve as a commedian was immediately a fav orite. His experiences were so sad they were ludicrous, and bis appearance was hailed with applause. J. B. McConnell shows by bis work a careful study of his role. Eva Van Cleve is a good character delineator and Dottie Fischer could not be excelled in her line. She appears to advantage, being graceful and always atease. Mr. Handley appeared as a jolly old man and Lee Walters as a cafe waiter. Some good specialties were introduced between acta, and thoir songs have tbe advantage of being new, and thereby pleasing. From tbe fact that the aggregation is made up greatly of Oregon people and the leading lady is a former Salem girl, the company are of especial interest here. Tonight they present "Jerry, t e Tramp," or "The Convict's Daughter." Capital Journal Salem Dec. 3d. Haw lath .rsr. "It often makes my heart ache," writes L. C.
