Paying State Taxes.
The various county courts of the state
are taking action in reference, to the
payment of sUte taxes. If paid to the
state treasurer they will simply be idle
at baleni or be invested . Hence a num
ber of counties are considering the ad.
visability of not remitting; but if a conn
ty refuses to remit, then the state tax
should not be collected at all at this
time, and no; until needed. The tax
raver should get the Itene&t.
Multnomah, Lane and Benton
have already decided in the mat
ter against payment to the state.
Judge Barton informs the Democrat
that Linn county will pay its state taxes
as tue money is collected lor tne pur
pose, the reason being that the county
is out of debt, that it will save interest
it it should be decided that the counties
are liable for interest, it will have to be
paid some time any way, and the pay
ment win save litigation.
In the matter ot inteiest on state taxes
not paid bv March 8. this will nrohablv
be resisted as the law requiring it is un-
aotiDieoiy unconstitutional.

hand of those struggling people, and

The Moyer Assignment.
- The petition of L. Flinn, C. P. Bacon

it, that where the previous monthly ex

of the missionaries irom otber stations

Lakawn for one year, at the expiration
o itbat time we may be assigned to the

the w hole mission are 25 missionaries, 3
of whom are at home on furlough, and 3

In this number I have not included the

That Example.
A few days ago the Democrat gave the
following example :
"t'everal Albany men have been trying
to do this example. A grind atone
weighing 40 pounds was dropped break
ing into four pieces of such aizes that
every even pound from 1 to 40 could be
weighed with the pieces. Who can do
it?' The following answer baa been
received :
Cbawfordmvillb, March 19.
In nnawer to your grind stone problem
in this weeks Dkmochat, I answer as fol
lows : One piece would weigh 1 lb, one
3 lbs, one 0 lbs and one 27 lbs, aggregat
ing 40 lbs, which tills the requirement.
X W.Moaaa
Mistaking the purport of the example
Mr. tchulUer in the Astoria Budget gives I
the answer as 2, 6, 12, and 20, which
would enable oue to weigh only part ot
the pounds up to 40.

EyriNocriAL Croatia. Mr. Pague baa
figured out that there ia no truth in the
accepted theory that storms attend the
equinoxes that occur March 2Itt and
Sept. 21st, and quote these and other
weather proverbs aa pleasing nursery
rhymes and ruivtnls of superstitious
f iiks rather than weather-wise sayings.
The . record of Portland for 23 con
e.utive years shows that the daily aver
age rainfall for five days preceding and
rive days following March 2la is lean than
the average for the month. The maxi
mum fall of rain at Portland is from Dec.
16th to fan. loth, after the latter date
there being an average gradual decrease
in the amoont, and litis gradual decrease
ia not altered by the Dreeence of tbe
equinox, at least it is not so shown in the
23 years recorded at Portland, Oregon.
This rves nothing o far as equinoxes
arc concerned generally, but only in ref
erence to Oregon.
