While the city chart" er question Is being discussed before the people the following from the Ortgonia shows what Porttand pays for running the city government t "The work of extend- ng and footing up the city assessment roll has been completed, and It Is found to amount to $36.783 ,,io, which 1 about $700,000 more than the gross amount of last year. From this Is to be deducted in debtedness, $15,376,610, and property ex empt. $S3,o5o,leavlng as the net sum liable to taxatlon,$ 1,506,000.

Men are arriving in Oregon by nearly every train, who were knocked flat by the bursted bubbling boom of Southern California. Where they pos sessed a fortune several months ago they have nothing now.

Be sides this it pays just on principle to patron ize home merchants. It is what builds up a community. what Is Wanted. A member ol the legislature has received a telegram from a man at Corvatlis of unquestioned veracity, who says the Methodist Church South wants its claims fully established to the building and grounds and all ether things belonging to the State Agricultural college at Corvallis, and tkenafter thst,U officials will consider any reasonable proposition from the stale for a settlement- Statesman.

Give him a chance and he would move the whole oi Albany to Tacoma. Horse Show. The Democrat has been asked by seyrral horsemen to agitate a first class horse show at thU city during the latter part of March. Such a show is needed here, and it is a matter horsemen should take hold of and push forward, This county now has some as good blood as there is in the state, and this is a good way to make it prominent.

The week has been taken up most- by the local water bill of Portland. That is It has underlled everything else. The Eugene sewerage bill was put on the boards first. The great question In both cases being the taxation of the bonds to be Issued to carry out these enterprises. The discussions before the House were by no means edifying. In fact each speaker seemed to aim it show how llttld he knew on the subject ml taxing bonds of a muni cipality. And on this point many reasons were given pro and con that were very thin. For Instance one gentleman champion was asked to answer a question growing out of his statement that these bonds would go out of the State anyway as five per cent bonds were not our capital seekers, "what difference then would It make whether taxed or not." He answer ed that foreign capital would not take them because It was feared abroad that our leg- siature would declare, them real estate and li them where Issued. To a man of com. mon sense this seemed ridiculous. Mort gages are se declared in this State for the urpose of the mortgage tax law, but bonds hlch are promissory notes reslly bear no fetation to the soil and float as personal property and can float as nothing else, If the gentleman had said we can sell the bonds here with five cent Interest If not taxed and eight per cent If taxed thereby saving forty-five thousand dollars annually to Porttand, It they are not taxed.he weuld have been plausible at least. But his an- wer was like the balance of reasons given. The fact Is if the bonds bear flv. per cent ntercst our banks will make if desired by selling one per cent on them tax or no tax. They will find if they take them with in terest at five per cent, a ready Eastern market with a premium offered of one to S . . . eve, . a a a wree per cent, i axing municipal bonus is a question of importance to the muni- Ipality that gives the money really which the bonds represent. And where the scheme is for sewerage or pure water -all going to the health of the community, the bonds slwwld not be taxed. But for any other object, usually speculative as subel. dies they should be taxed. This distinction however was not made, but we think It is justified by precedent. Though it was ad mltted by those favoring the measure in their Innocence that there were no prece dents for exempting municipal bonds from taxation, j he t'ortland bill passed 33 to 13. The scene looked like a bankers conven tion. If there was a bonk in Portland not represented on the flocr of the House by their officers it mould be a standing fact to reveal, uowditch stvied the measure as -a bill to enrich the bankers." la a farmer letter we ssld there were three thousand dollars paid out for clerk hire at the last session, when it should have been between ten and eleven thousand dollars. How much of this was meritor ious is the question with the economist Senator Irvine's measure would have test ed this point, but he wss voted down Probsbly one fault of it. On Tuesday evening next before the joint convention of both Houses, the life atcd picture ot Dr. John McLaughlin will be presented t the State by Hon. John jMinio ami received by oovernor rennoy- cr. As both ot these gentlemen are known to be successes on like occasions this Is one of great promise. No man In Oregon, dead or alive deserves higher praise from tier cm uren than nr. McLaughlin, and we predict mat Mr. ;i into win substantiate this fact, e K. 11. Dearborn, the patient, newty ap pointed Postmaster of Salem has teen confirmed. This is a deserved compliment to Mr. Dearborn. Now If a new incum nent could follow In the national inslltu Uon of Indian extraction In this county some government patronage might flow there through democratic hands for four years. But this no doubt Is too late. rw real estate agents pop up here in the morning as if they were muahrooms. So long as the vagrant laws are in force they cannet starve. Several excited peo pie go out daily with smoked glass to see If the "boom" Is In slzht. We look tor candy and bread wagons to be converted Into real estate offices as every other place- nearly Is occupied by them. Piping times are coming to palem. Sojourner THE M IN ABOUT TOWN Speaking oi the city charter, we do hope the cow part wilt get through anywsy. Suppose we drive the c6ws through first and then leave the bars down and let the crowd gee and haw at the rest of the ani mals. ! 1 fi -5 1 ; Judging from conversation with peo.de who have been In most of the cities of the Northwest we have come to the conclusion that Albany Is about the most respectable kinaot a city anywhere around. It may be noticed that nesr'y all of the naughty car rylngons are by outsiders. The advance agent for St. Valentine Is In the city. The show promises to be of a more refined nature than ot old, tastily made, artistic productions taking the place of the old style, disgraceful appearing, slovenly looking ailatrs that formerly oc cupled front seats In tbe windows. Whether or not a whist club should be allewed to rent a certain hall In Albany is a question that has shaken one or two socie ties up considerably, resulting In a losing hand for the card side. I I The Man About Town has been request ed to give the position of the Oregon Pa-, clfic In reference to their opposition to be ing taken Into the city limits as provided under the proposed city charter. We do so, without comment.and it would be a poor stick of a news githeret that couldn't do that much. They claim that It would de feat the object for which the land was ob tained, that of building a round house and machine shops on such parts of it as they please. In the city limits It could bo laid off in streets, though absolutely none of it is tor sale, the only effect would be to make the Company pay city taxes and would antsgonlxe them toward our city. Tills is the way the matter Is stated to us. BROWNSVILLE. Mathew Fader, of Sell wood, was here Wednesday. Meesrs I M Mover and O P Coshow went to Portland Frlt'ay. Mr and Mrs Thos Tamer, of Muddy, spent several days of the past week visiting: friends nere. Messrs W B Bianehard and N II Young: started for their snlnloi claims located on the McKentle, Thursday, I B Sperrv, of East Portland, was here the first of the week and secured a car load of hones for shipment to Portland. Messrs Dyson. Moore, W B and John StandUh returned last Monday from their claims In the Blue river district. They all seem much encouraged on account of llislr prospects and ili return to continue work as soon as the weatner win permit. Rev A LeRor closed the meetings be ing conducted In the Baptist church here for the past two weeks Wednesday even ing the administered the ordinance cl bap tisra ta nine converts last Sunday. The meetings being held on the south side also closed the same evenlnf. Much rood was done In both places. From one st the parties who just re turned from the Blue river mines vour correspondent learns that there w a dispo sition of the people living In that portion that was detached and annexed to Lane county years ago, to come back to Linn. l ney say the taxes are too hign in iane county. This speaks well for the manage men ol our county finances, liy retaking that portion of the country we would have an tne prospective mines in tne Blue reiv er district X.

Pirates. One would think from the af1 m .a m. . . ... iowowing irom tne vregoman that we were very close to some of he worst de scendents of Capt Kidd: "And besides, if no vessel ever came up to Portland, still the Interests of Astoria would demand that pilot charges tn the bar be reduced and the protected nest of pirates that have their headquarters there be broken up. "" Rather Cool. Jan. 30th Frank How ard, a convict at the penitentiary at Salem, sent from Multnomah county for five years for obtaining money under false pretenses, cut his left hand off with a hatchet m order to avoid work in the foundry. Re had previously burned himself and been laid up several days, probably on purpose. A more deliberate act was never perpetrate d , "Force of Imfulsk." This play will be presented by the members of F. Co, and their friends on Friday evenfng, Feb. 15. i it should be given a good support. Children Cry fo?, A Game of Tickle Bills appropriat ing over $350,000 are now before the State Legislature. There seems to be a game of "tickle-each-other" going on between Port land representatives and Eastern and South- em Oregon legislators. In this respect Linn county representatives do not stand in with them at all. They are making a good recjrd. Cake Presented. Thursday night at the U P church, after the annual congre gational meeting was finished, Dr Irvine was presented with an elegant gold headed cane, as an expression of the apprecla of his congregation far the services he has done them as a Christian minister. If the cane wears as well as its donee there will be no question but it will be handed down to future generations. Old Patents. The original patent of Perry Thomas has just b:en filed in the county clerk's office. It is signed by Jas Buchanan, president, and is dated In 1859. Also patent of Jas M Elliot, dated in 1866 and signed by Andrew Johnson. Old pat ents are gradually coming In on account of the increasing number ot transfers of prop erty. - Wednesday, Jan. 30. The Albany charter bill in the senate was recommended and referred to the Lion county senators. Irvine's lien bill is referred to railroad committee; Daw son's deat mute school bill was ordered engrossed, Fullerton's supreme court bill was recommended and engrossed; Daw son s firemen's bill was en crossed. A urge number I bills were reed and re ferred. Dawson's bill In reference to deeds, the Portland water bill and Tongue's heir- snip Dili were read second ume in house. Thursday, Jan. 31. Coggswell presented a resolution asking the submission of an amendment to the constitution allowing ail males over twen ty one to vote at all elections. Among new bills introduced were, prohibiting re ductions of Indebtedness from taxation authorizing experiment station in connec tion wl'.h agricultural college, for portage railway between The Daltes and Celilo, prohibiting horse racing on Sunday, licens lag stallions, providing for the snpport of married women, protecting sheep Misers (Dawson), $25,000 for Oregon's commis- Moner at fans exposition, relocating coun ty seat ot union county, for Eastern Ore jren board of trade. Crook's bill for $14,000 lor wag n road In Curry county passed me nouse. . TilE FLAG. Samoa arid the United Stat. (Written for the Democrat.) The time has come for the United States to show her hand. The Germans have played the pirate long enough in little Samoa.and It is extremely necessary, that, by force of arms, tnis country cause them to halt. England should join forces with us to compel the Germans to desist from further depredations j but the signs of the times augur that the British Empire docs not want a brash with the armies of WU hclm. True, our fleet Is not a first-class one ; but we have other advantages and should follow them up. We can land troops sufficient at Apia and other points In Samoa, which, acting in concert with our fleet would give the Germans the sound thrashing they so justly deserve. In our opinion, the time has passed tor dlplo matlc Interference. Lt our Minister be recalled from Berlin and Germany's em, bassador at our National Capital receive his psssport home. Let war be declared. Let our North and South Pacific squadrons.to gether with our now famous dynamite cruiser, "The Vesuvius," and as many other gunboats as possible, be .hastened to the Samoan Islands. Our flag has been insulted. Our Congress has been insulted. The honor and Integrity of the entire United States demands Instant reparation and that reparation can only come through udiclous and Immediate use of powder and lead. .The late dispatches are of no friend- y nature and the mobilizing of German- men-of-war at Apia means a stubborn fight If any country Interferes. Our t'taty with Samoa, means our Interference In the present crisis.' Will we do it? Must we allow Germany to obtain a foothold In the South Pacific and float her flag over the Samoan Islands t It our Congressmen are far-seeing enough they will Instantly recognize the utility ot these South Pacific Islands In the future. The interchange of . . a . commerce, not to speaaos me necessary coaling 1 tat ions, is enough to make us de clare Germany's actions as indicative of war and prepare to contest the ground. True, should a skirmish ensue.the fighting will be at and around the Samoan Islands, and whilst the German men-of-war may be better than ours, we have active sailors and marines who are much more proficient than Bismarck's swillers of lager beer and devourers of pretzels. The firing on, the tearing down of the stars and stripes Is surely a war sign and should be met broadsides from our Navy. We trust Con cress wilt not be slow in tbe matter. The Sla'e Department has laid all the necessary Information before that distinguished body, so there is no cxcum for them to dclsy. The tariff should now be laid aside. Tariff Is only a matter between the two parties and, whilst of vital Importance, Is not oa much so as the maintalnance of our honor and Integrity as a people. Upon Samoan affairs the North, South, East and West are a unit No loyal man, and such exists all over our broad domain, will say "nay" to our prompt Interference. Within our mem ory, and not many years ago, BIsmark in sulted our country, and then the cry was raised we have no Navy. With the knowl edge of our being nearer to Samoa than Germany, and our ability to successfully cope with that power, we cannot shout "no Navy." "War be It then.we have millions for defense, but net one cent for tribute,' said Plnckney years ago at the French Court, and bvthat envoy's resoluteness a strife was avoided. Let the same saying be now our watchword, for our treaty obli gations with Samoa, solemn as they are, place us in an attitude compromising, in deed, if we do not stop German encroach ments over there, and prove to the world that he United States of America Is the greatest power on earth, and though on home issues we may split and fight yet when our flag Is Insulted, we all rise, the blue and the grey.hand in hand to resent it January jSth, 18S9.

Some communities like individuals are nat overburdened with modesty. Such is the character ot some of the counties now tsking for appropriations from the state to build wagwn roads. Fell of Morrow wants 10,000 to build a road from Heppner up to Monument, and yet Morrow pays only 4,1 aa taxes to the state. That cpunty woutd take back all she pays Into the state treasury and $6000 paid in by other coun ties. Crook of Coos wants $14,000 to build a road out ia Curry, which county pays SiJSta taxes to the state. Maxwell of Tilla mook wants $10,000 to build a road in his county and yet that county pays but $i,aia state taxes. Hunter of Wallowa wants $8,000 to build a road up in his country, and the county he represents pays $3,399 Into the atate treasury Such Is the char acter of the road bills which are now be- fore the legislature. - ' That bill of Condon's (House Bill No. 104) to increase the State University tax from one-tenth to one-seventh ot one mill and to make tuition free for those who en ter any of the literary departments of the j University should be knocked out on the 1 first round. Young gentlemen who tske advaneed literary courses should not ask that the tax payers of the state should be taxed to meet the expense of such course.
