A srw Plan to avoid Taxation. In conver
sation recently with a number of gentlemen, lb
subject being taxation, one of the number remark
ed that, up at mentioning ibe name of
tbnviug town in Oregon), tlie citizens paid no
taxes, as they had bit upon a plan to carry on
tbe municipal government without levying a tax.
Whenever tbe city's exchequer was empty and
funds were needed for any purpose, tbe first gen
tletnan from the country caught within tbecity lim
its, was induced in some manner to take part in a
"ruction," gotten up, of course, for his . special
benefit, whereupon ho was immediately arrested
by the authoiitk-s and fined heavily, thus killing
two birds with oneftone putting money into the
treasury to supply tbe needs of the corporation,
and instilling into the mind of the country geu tie-
man a reverence for tbe stiict and impartial man
ner in which the corporation laws were enforced I
Wdbat Pbospbct is Lis After carefully
comparing notes, we believe the situation in this
eounty is about this : Spring wheat generally at
this writing never gave better promise of an abun
dant harvest, in some sections it even being pre-
i dieted tbat the yield will be greatly in excess,
should no unfavorable weather intervene between
: this and harvest, of any former year. Fall grain
! has not fared so welL ' While some farm' rs have
I plowed np all of tbeir fall sown wheat, others have
a fair showing for a half crop, and sRIl others
claim that their full crop will everago with other
years. Indications are that the fall grain will not
yield, generally, an average crop. But the loss,
; if any, sustained in the fall wheat, will be ful!y
made up in tbe extra yield of spring.

A continuance during the present month of such
weather as we experienced last, tbe growth would
be so heavy that tbe slightest wind would- blow
it all down, making harvesting a heavy matter

tle or no rain, for which we are duly grateful.
Weather cool but pleasant it looks now at though

V. had no idea of tha eost and extant of the
improvements recently inaugurated in the eastern
portion of our city, by E. Cartwright A Co., until
we were shown through by the polite and oblig
ing Co., Mr. MeCord, on Wednesday. They have
expended a large amount of money in erecting
neat and substantial buildings and putting in
machinery. Tbey deserve tbe hearty support of
this community if for no other reason than that
they havo added largely to tbe value of the prop
erty, in that section of the eity- at least, by tbeir
expenditure ot money, thus increasing the general
wealth. Any man or set of men wbo come among
us aud spend their money in improving and build
ing np our city and adding to its business deserve
special encouragement.
