AT GASH VALUE. BENTON COUNTY PROPERTY BE ASSESSED THAT WAY NOW. IO Order to That Effect Made by the Commissioners Court Pres ent Method the Order Says Prevents Uniformity ' Other News; At this week's session, the com missioners court made an order re ' quiring all property in the county assessed at its cash value, The or der recites that as now made, the valuations are not uniform. The order is self explanatory, and in full is as follows: "It appearing to the court after due examination and consideration, of the property shown by the a3 se.ssment rolls of the county, that , the same is very unequal and in many iastances, inequitable; said ; property being assessed at from 60 per cent down to in some instances, 20 per cent of its true . cash value. That the present condition is not only contrary to the spirit and letter of the Jaw, but a great injury to the county in - depreciating its actual . financial standing to the world at large. . That by reason of the pre mises and the system of low val uations, we are forced by, the re cords to admit that Benton county is without financial standing and onr property of small value, necessi tating the court, in order to raise sufficient funds for the proper maintenance of the county to make a high tax levy. Whereas, if the property was raised to its actual casfa value as contemplated by law, the tax levy would be - lowered' accordingly. That if a certain sum of money is to be raised for any purpose, the- raising of the valuations of the tax able property in the county, -under our present law, will not increase any individual's taxes one cent, but will enable the court to raise said amount by a proportionate low levy. That trie small taxpay- er is carrying an unequal amount of the public burden, while, due to the present system of under val uation and the apparent inability of the assessor to reach money, notes and accounts, his more , wealthy neighbor is escaping tax ation. ' .''y' That the tax roll of 1902 shows that there was but $34,050 in mon ey in Benton county on the first - day of March of that year, while the published report of the First , National bank of Corvallis, shows the sum of $349 017.15 on deposit in its vaults, alone at that time or in other words, over $300,000 es caping taxation. That sec. 3057 of the Bellinger Code says: "And said lands er town lots shall be valued at their true cash value." "True cash value shall be held and taken to mean the amount such property would sell for at a voluntary sale made in the ordinary course of business.". Also section 3058. "All person-1 al property not exempt from tax ation shall be valued at its true value in cash, and it shall be the duty of each assessor to value all improvements on claimed land within his county as personal pro perty." , , Also section 3067, "It shall be the duty of the county assessors in this state, when making their as sessments for each year to apply to the proper officer of every banking institution or express company in his county, and procure - a certified sworn statement of the names of depositors of money or. other val uables,' with the amounts of money or other valuables deposited,' at tached to the name of each deposit or, for the purpose of assessing the same." - - , ' - It is therefore ordered that H. IV. Bush, assessor of Benton county, Or., be and he is hereby instructed and directed to carry out the pn visions of sections 3057, 3058 & 3067 at pages 1041, 1043, & 1045,. respectively of the Bellinger Code: and if said assessor fails and neg lects to comply , with- this order and carry out the provisions of said above mentioned sections, the coun ty court will consider that he has failed to properly perform his duties k and will not receive his assessment 'for the year 1903." ; ' Glens Falls, . N. Yn March 7. Nineteea men are dead aa a result of the '' capsizing of the boat used by the woikmen at the Spies Falls, about ten miles west of Glens Falls, on the Hudson River. More; than 1,000 men are employ ed there at present in the construc tion of the power dam of the Hud son River Power Company. " The ' laborers and many of: the masons are Italians, who live in shanties on the nortbside of the river. The main portion of tbe work is carried n at present on the opposite aide f the rivf r. Tbe men hae bem in ih hatnt of crossing a email KriHup whurft tha river, flows w. &. , . --- , through,, an unBniphpd portion of the dam, but th river has been rising lor several dayp, and he company, fearing the bridge was unsafe, destroyed it with djLa mi'e. Bilow the bridgo about the work id a ferry. Tbe boat is a scow shaped affair, about 30 feet long aod ab iut 13 feet wide, and i op erand by means of cables. It in large enough to carrv a heavilj loaded team and as many aa 150 me 1 have be n takm across it at one time. . Wnen the men were being carri ed across yesterday an Italian boy became frighu ned aod fell over board. He was reecae I, however. This moroing 70 or 80 men got al ard of the boat, leaving a big crow a on the bank waiting for tho n.-xt trip. When a few feet from sh re. the water pplaebed agn t tbb rail, and -the boy who had fall en over the prev ous day 6cizd one of tn tackle ropes which ran from tbe overbed cabin t' the ctern of tbe bo it. Some of the men ttarttd toward bim and in-taotly tbe h.at carfftotd and fi led. The Hudson, f.woll--n bv the Ires'! -nine, bore a eoore or more of the Btruzglii men duvvn the stream. Many oth- trs succeeded 10 catching hold of the boat, which bad ligbttd, and tbey clrrri there until they were pulled s re. ' ' ' ' ' ' T. e wiliest excitement prevailed, but the current carried many of the men toward 6hore, where tbey were rescued. Teams were quickly har nessed and loaded with ekilled log drivers aod sent down the river to pointa 'where the bodies would 1 ke ly be foand. Dozens of diii'&er pails, hats and coats were fished out, but it was nearlv 6 o'clock be fore the first body was fouod. This wa3 fouDd in a log jam 2 miles be low tbedam, and was recognized as thnt of an Italian interpreter. Toe river for miles is being watched and dragged in 'hopes of findiog the bodies of the other vic tims. There were but two or three EoglUh-speaking men on the boat, tbe Italians being all designated by number. The rolls of the men were' called, and tonight everybody has been accounted for but 16 men, and it is certain that these men were drowned. ' . " , It. is unlikely that all the bodies will be recovered. , The river is full of logs, and at the high boom, five miles down tbe river, there are many thousands of them. . Portlind, March 7. Channing M. Ward, of Evanston, Wyo., and D. S. Kamerer, of Pittsburg, Pa., says the Portland. Journal, arrived this morning for the purpose of at once establishing a packii g house in Portland. These are two of the gen'lemen who - incorporated the Columbia Packing Company with a capital stock of $750,000. Mr. Ward, who seems to be at the bead of the concern, was very uncom municative regarding the project on font of making Portland a live stock center. ' "I am not in a position to make a statement as to what we are go ing to do," was the invariable an swer to nearly every question put to Mr. Ward. "What did you come to Portland for?" was asked. I "We came to look . around for a few days. , When we get our bear ings then we will go back East, make seme necessary arrangements with the other incorporators and then return, to Portland." "Is it a fact that you are going to start a meat packing plant in Portland?" was the next question. "It looks that way, does it not?" counter-questioned Mr. Ward. . "When are you going to start work, then?" "I do not know when we will start work, but you may be assur ed that it will be pretty soon. We came hers te start a meat packing plant and we are going to do it. We cannot discuss our plans for the present or future, as we must first investigate and get our bear ings, then we can talk." 1 . The Columbia Packing Company, of which Mr. Ward seems to be the head, was incorporated in Portland about two months ago with a capi tal stock of $750,00, the incorpora tors! being C. M. Ward, David S. Kamerer and E.' B. Wilson. About three weeks ago an option was tak en by this company on 400 acres of land near St. Johns. It is under stood that.the property will be pur chased by the company at $loo an acre." .; ' The plant of this . company . will give employment to about l,ooo men. It will be furnished with the most modern machinery. -. Our store will close at 7 p. m during January, February and March, Saturday evenings excepted J. H. Harris. I How His Garden Grew f THE averag-e man who moves from a fla.t or from a city house with a 12 by 14 lawn to a p.s.ce in. the suburbs with a generous, back yard yearns to plant things aud see them grow. Mr, Grimston which, by the way, is not ' his real name says this wag one of his ideals which, last year, was rudely shattered. He says he thinks the reason Mary was-"quite contrary" was because her garden made her so. Their1 suburban residence has quite an extensive back yard, and Mr. Grim ston worked ind-ustriously at it morn ings and evenings, trying to get it into presentable shape, for tho previous tenants had used it as a depository for tin cans, old rusty pans and disabled coffee pots. '.. j "How delightful it is to live in a home at last," he remarked to a friend who called one evening soon after they had moved. "I don't call the flat where we have been living a home. 'God bless our home' looks out of place on the walls' of a suite of rooms in a large apartment building; it ought simply to be 'God bless our flat.' We have procured a cat and three kittens in order to make the place seem as homely as possible, and I am going to raise one of the finest gardens in the back yard you ever saw. To raise our own vegetables will be a saving of money, and " . "1 don't know about that," inter rupted his friend. "I raised some po tatoes one year and at the end of the season found they had cost me just five dollars a bushel. Cheaper, to buy at the grocery, you know." "That was because you hired a man to take care of 'em. I'm going to work H15- garden myself. I shall attend to it mornings and evenings,, see." "There is something poetical and wonderful to me about the planting season,", said Mr. Grimston when he came home one night with various packages of seed. "Think of the germ of life inclosed in -one of these tiny seeds! Our schoolbooks- told ns of a raspberry seed found in the stomach of a man who had been dead hundreds of years, and the seed Upon being plant ed grew and produced fruit. There' is no accident or caprice in nature; every little seed knows, just what it has to do and it does it." "I am not posted.. on such things," replied his. wife, ;'but I wish our yard had more sunshine. Those large tree's on either side of us will completely shade your garden." "Oh, that doesn't matter," he re turned; "don't you worry; This after noon I shall plant my radish, lettuce, onion arid cucumber seeds, and to-morrow I shall plant my peas and buy some tomato plants. The vegetable man will not , make much by calling here this year, my dear! - Think of having fresh vegetables of our own growing! When I was a boy and used to visit my uncle in the country I would take some salt nd go to the garden and break open a large, beautiful tomato, red as ruby on the inside, sprinkle some salt on it and eat it right there, and I assure you it was perfectly delicious. ' And the radishes! Why, half the radishes we buy are. soft and spongy from being kept too long. You will see that ours will be crisp and toothsome." '. Mr. Grimston whistled gayly aa he raked and hoed his vegetable beds,' and who so happy as he when .the threadlike green spears and scalloped leaves began to peep from the ground! "Our lettuce will be very fine,' he said ; "it has such large, strong roots, and our tomatoes ara growing like anything." "I should think sol" returned his wife. VAt Ihe rate, these plants are shooting up they ought to bear fruit as; large as watermelons." "True," said he, "and the cucumber roots also are very large. The onions look a little sickly, but they'll come out all-right, for onions-will grow any where." ' i , ! He had driven sticks in the ground for his peas, which were beginning to grow nicely ,-and he felt that, taken all in all, his garden was in a very satisfac tory condition, 'z ; Unfortunately Mary Ellen thecat and her offspring enjoyed working in the garden fully as well asi did Mr. Grimston,' and this became more evi-. dent as the kittens grew older. The ! twining pea vines were a never-ending source of delight to the kittens. Some times they amused themselves by climbing to the top of the supports; at others they preferred to stand off a few paces and with a sudden run and jump thrpw themselves against the vines, which they bore triumphantly to the ground. Mr. Grimston. tried to keep these pests shut up in the cellar, but stupid Bridget invariably managed to let them escape from their prison, when they returned to their old tricks with more enthusiasm than before. ' "Ye'll niver raise a garden wid thim cats around!'' said Bridget, who was tired of being reproached for her care lessness. ' Vj ''.- ;-,"' " j -. "I agree with you, Bidget,,, he re turned, "and I will get rid of Mary El len if you will dispose of the kittens. Is it a bargain?" "Sure, an' I think 1 can maaag it, she replied. . . .." ' ,-. ' , ' Early the next morning, Mr. Grim ston started out on his wheel with Mary Ellen under his arm. She did no aeein to pprtcit thi form of locomotion, and when shoot mil from iofflt cseaped from him and fled, fiaoa of whit across th grtnef a vacant lot. He had Intended t lake her much farther, but felt sure she would mot find her way back again. -s At twilight he saw Bridget go out tif the back gate with an old peach basket covered with newspapers on her arm. From the interior of the basket came feeble, but continuous protests! in the form of plaintive little squeaks and wail. He asked no questionsThor did Bridget upon her return vouchsafe any information. .' 'The following morning a Email boy informed iir. Grimston that the old lady who' lived in the house with the extensive grounds in the next block wished to ste him. She was Xhc rich est woman in the neigr.bci.hicG' and was said to be ecetnu.o 'tad more or less of a terror to her acv-i.tances. Greatly surprised ul her w'jili' to see him,: and t; vii:g to surmiv? what her object could be, Mr. G nation called there on his way to the train. The maid who opened the door left him standing in the wide hall, after sourly informing him that her mistress would be down in a moment. - ' '-' : The mistress soon appeared; ; she was tall and large in proportion.: Her mouth wai ao stt with auger as to ap pear almost square, and her eyes had so narrowed themselves as to be near ly closed. She o-.i.ined to fill the hall with an atmosphere of wrath. . "I would have you know, sir," she said, in a low, intense voice, "that my place is not a pound." , "Certainly not, madam," agreed the puzzled Air. Grimston. "Then what do you mean by leav ing your wretched cats here?" He understood her now. Bridget had let the kittens escape, and they had entered this woman's grounds. "Oh,", he said, smiling feebly, "I am very sorry, indeed. 1 I missed my kittens, but had no idea where they had gone. Am very sorry they came here, but there is no telling where cats will wander, you know." ' "Wanuer! You don't mean, to say that three kittnes will wander away in a basket cf their own' accord, do ' you ? My youngest boy saw your maid' leave those cats on my back porch last night. . Determined to find who. she was he traced her to your house." - "I sincerely regret this," he said, in great distress., 'Our maid is just over from the old country. She' does not seem to understand half that we say to her. I haven't the faintest idea why she' brought the kittens here' .". His antagonist surveyed him cynic- ally. "It is your maid's fault that the old cat also is here?" she asked. , "I don't understand," murmured Mr. Grimston. -"Fellow me, sir!" she commanded, and preceded him to the back porch. . - Alas. r There was the identieal peach .basket, there were the three kittens playing about, and, worst of all, there was Mary Ellen herself, who arched her: back and affectionately rubbed herself, against him as' one who joy fully, greets an old acquaintance. "I assure you, madam," declared the wretched Grimston, "that I had noth ing whatever to do with1 sending the cats here!" . ' ' .. "My coachman passed your house early yesterday morning," said she. "He saw you start out with this cat; when he returned an hour later the creature was in my yard." Mr. Grimston felt that were this a 'case of murder the circumstantial evi dence would be strong enough to hang him. He tried to explain, but she would not listen, being one of those persons who like to hug a grievance to their hearts and are loath to have it explained away. : , "Take your animals and go!" she said. . He put the kittens into the basket, not without somevdifficulty, for they objected strongly to the arrangement; then, taking Mary Ellen under the other arm, he bade the mistress of the house a polite good morning and went out at the back gate, feeling that his exit was by no means a dignified one. He carried his burdens home and left them in the cellar.., "If you let those cats out of here again," he said to Bridget, relieved to find some one upon whom to vent his wrath, "you'it be 'sorry ror it!" The im'ustice of this Trrlnfnn wrought upon Bridget's feelings to such a degree that when he returned home that night he found his wife with a tragic brow preparing dinner, and was informed that the maid had departed. ' " ' ' , ' r.The garden, the cause of all this trouble, continued to grow with the most surprising results. The lettuce had remarkable roots, but no tops. A sufficient quantity of small pale leaves j were procurea from the bed one day that was the first and last appearance to garnisn a aisn or cola ham, and of Mr. Grimston's lettuce in public. The , radish leaves were laree and strong, but their roots were pale and attenuated; the tomato plants grew tall and vigorous and produced two or three tomatoes the size of cherries. Aunt Deborah .from the country sat down on the ground and laughed when she visited, the garden. . "You don't mean to tell me, Oliver, that you tried to raise onions from the seeds?" she said. '"Why didn't you get the sets?" ' "I didnt know that there were such things as onion sets," said he..: "They wouldn't have done any good if I had planted them., I had tomato 'sets' if that's what you call them and look at them now! They seem to have had the -notion that they were intended to be currant bushes." Aunt Deborah laughed again, and so did Mr. Grimston, but not so heartily .'
