Agent for ailing Imtndcd AimtmcDl law. The following amendment to the assessment law of the State was enacted y the Legislature at the last ses sion of that body: Section 1. Section 16 of title 3 of chapter 57, the miscellaneous laws of Oregon, relafing to tho assessment of property and tlie levy and eollection of taxes, shall be amended so as to read as follows: t Sec, 16. Th Assessor after quali fyinjC, as prescribed by law, shall imme diately procure from the County Clerk a blank assessment roll and forth with proceed and assess all taxable property withiu his county, and shall return to such County Clerk on or be fore the first Monday in September next following, such assessment roll, with a full and complete asses.sment'of such tax able property entered thereon, including a full and precise description of the lands or lota so owned by each person therein named, which description shall correspond with tho plan or plot of any town laid out or recorded, and said land or town lots shall bo valued at their true cash value, taking into consideration thn improvements on tho laud, and in the surrounding country, the quality of soil, its conveniences to transportation lines, public roads mills and other ad vantages. True cash value shall In; hcldaiid taken to mean the amount such property would sell for at a voluntary sale made in the ordinarv course of bus- iness, and not what it would bring at public auction or forced sale. The Coun ty Court of any county, may, if neces sary, by, order nade before tho lirst Monday in September extend tho time for returning the assessment roll until the first Monday in October following. It shall be tho duty of the Assessor to deduct the amount of his or her indubt egness, within the State, of any person assessed, from the amount of his or her taxable property, but no' indebtedness shall in any case be deducted unless it is real bona fido indebtedness due from the person assessed as principal debtor, and not on account of any contingent liability, as surety, endorser or other wise, and in case two or more parties as prinoipnl debtors are jointly or sev erally liable for the payment of any such indebtedness, neither of them shall be entitled to the deduction of any por tion of it than the proportion each debtor bears to tho whole number of such debtors to the effect that only the amount of indebtedness shall lededuct ed in favor of all such debtors, nor shall a deduction be made in favor of any person assessed unless he or she deliv ers to the Assessor a writen statement duly sworn to, specifying the name and residence of tho creditor, the nature of the debt, the names of otlier parties, if any, who are liable therefor, and what statement shall snow that tlie tleiit, or portion thereof, sought to be deducted, ha3 not been deducted in any other county or place in the State from the assessment of such person for that year; and in case such statement Miall be found to be false to the knowledge of the party who made it, or that such party has willfully or recklessly inado a false statement in such case for the pur pose of obtaining a deduction of in debtodr.ess, such party shall be deemed guilty of perjury, and shall lie liable to the pains and penalties therefor. Approved October 25, 1880. V. II. Davis and wife, of Wills sta tion, Bt!,ton county, aro under $200 bonds to keep the peace, with one Wil son. A collection of stuffed birds and oni niali, made by Mr. Peacock, of Albany, valued at $200 was raffled and won by W. II. Allen. The Albany Register says: We learn that a Government Engineer is at New port, awaiting orders to proceed with the work of removing tlie reef of rocks that obstruct the mouth of Yaijuina Bar. It is rumored that the narrow guage intends to remove its track from its present location, aliout a quarter of mile from Scio, to the direct route, some two miles away from that city. The new route is on higher ground, not ' liable to overflow, and a mile and a ; quarter shorter. Considerable excite- mnt exists in Scio oter the matter. i . . ..11 . 1 miloai Bide. i j On Tuesday last, says the Standard of January 25, Mr. Henry Thielson, Assistant Engineer of the railroad di vision of the Oregon Railway and Nav igation Company with a party of four men, left the mouth of the John Pays river for the purpose of going dow n to Celilo. Shortly after starting a dense fog appeared on the river which ren dered it impossible for the men in the boat to distinguish the shore line, and the increased swiftness of the current of the river carried the Itoat along at a speed not realized by tho occupants un til the harsh, dull roar of tho water as it dnshed over tho head of tho cascades below Celilo Vas heard, arid an awful fate seemed inevitable. It was useless to endeavor to bring the boat out of tlio whirling eddies that now encircled it and the rushing waters seemed to be but playing with the frail bark, as ev ery moment it was drawn nearer and nearer to an almost certain doom, while the wild roaring of the waters as they dashed down into the seething abyss below seemed to hiss and sputter and laugh in a perfect carnival of terror as the terrified inmates of the boat ap proached the fatal spot, Like a flash, the boat suddenly darted outof theeddy straight to the fall one minute and the boat would be dashed to pieces, but as if guid.'d by the hands of Providence the boat caught on a sunken rock just on the verge of thefall, and laying there swinging with the motion of the waters but leaving tjto men powerless, facing death, and while saved from it, still un able to escape. It was at this moment that a new danger and one that made the certainty of being carried over the falls inevitable now presented itself. Coining down the river and almost on top of tho boat was discovered an im mense flow of ice. Tho almost cer tainty of death either by being carried over the rocks or else crushed to pieces in the ice was only left to choose, and before tho engineer und his party could realize itthe ice was upon them, and one immense cake had shot under the boat, lifted it over the suukon rock and ice. boat and men were carried over the falls down into the chasm below and not a soul injured, it was a fearful experience an event that not one of the party will ever forget though they lives be numbered with tho centenarians of futuro years. Onco in tho basin be low, t.ho party reached the shore and reached their destination by overland route. STATE NEWS. Tho Rogue river Canning Co. took 48,000 salmon last year. Scio was without mailsfrom tho 11th to the 2 ith of January inclusive. Mr. Hewitt of thn Salem ferry, will have a steam ferryboat built within CO days, Mr. and Mrs. R Kimball, who live near Dallas, lately celebrated their nil ver wedding. A correspondent snys a large ware house is to b8 erected at Buena Vista in the Spring. On the 25th, there was six inches of snow at Independence and eight inches at Buena Vista. The saw and flouring mills at Inde pendence, were, considerably damagnd by the high water. The scarlet fever prevails at Middle- ton, Washington county, also near Dal las, Polk county. A little two year old son of Mr. Sears at Independence, was fearfully burned by Lis clothes taking fire. Joseph Watt and others are talking of building a new grist mill at Amity, to replace the oue lately burned. Brisk times ahead for bridge con tractors and road supervisors through out Douglas and Jackson counties. Coyotes ars .making sad havoc among sheep in Spring Valley, Polk county, J. K. Sears lost over 40 head out of sixty. A dog belonging to C. B. Masters of Rosnburg, was found to be road lost Sunday morning, 23 inst, and was itu mediately shot. This is the first instance of hydrophobia that has ever beeu known in Poujjlas county. ThriD.b It Cilmui A cohfeience was held at San Fran- cisco on the 12th of January between a committee of directors of the Oregon- ian Railway Company and President Standford and a committee of directors of tho Central Pacific, the object being to arrange as to the point of connection and the terms on which the same were to lie made of these two railroads in Southeastern Oregon. At this meet ing a satisfactory arrangement was concluded. But the Oregonian direc tors were much suqvrised when Presi dent Stanford informed them tltat his company had made arrangements to carry tho w heat trado of Eastern Ore gon and Eastern Washington to Gal veston or other points in Texas for shipment to Liverpool, instead of by way of Portland, as at present. lis also stated that his company, the Southern Pacific, w ould carry the wheat of California via the Gulf of Mexico to England. The Southern Pacific will reach Gal veston or a gulf port within one year. In 1881 thev will immediately there after build a line from a point on tho Central Pacific, 50 miles east or west of Winnemucca, up into Oregon by wayof Malheur reservation from which lat ter point tho line will fork; a north easterly branch on or near to Walla Walla and tlienco to the Palouse coun try to a connection on the Northern Pacific's main line with a northwester ly branch from the Malheur through the Ochooo country and the John Day river to the Dalles, When these roads are connected to the Central Pacific the Southern Pacific, will carry the wheat of Eastern Oregon and Eastern Wash ington straight through in cars to Gal veston at freight of $11 and $12 per ton, ' and say they hare made arrange ments with the White Star line and Atlantic steamers and another steam ship line to carry wlieat from the Gulf of Mexico to Liverpool direct (or two dollars per ton making a through freight from Eastern Oregon to Liver pool at $14 per ton at most. They also intend to carry passengers from Great Britain via Galveston to Oregon for $50 to $G0 each through rates. They propose, after thoir Oregou ex tension to the Palouse country is com pleted, to continue that line southerly across the Central Pacific's main line in Arizona, at or near Maricopa Wells. This line will make the distance I tween Galveston and Central and Eas tern Oregon nearly as short as between Galveston and San Francisco. Presi dent Stanford stated that his company had now no intentions of ever extend ing their California and Oregon line from Redding into southern Oregon, but would be pleased to make connec tions with the Oregonian Railway Com pany's line if it was extended to south eastern Oregon, as the Central Pa cific had no intention of going to Port- am! or of making extensions to wes tern Oregou or tho Willamette valley except by connecting with other lines meeting them in Eastern Oregon or at the Central Pacific main line. S. Friedman, of Buena Vista, offers ' a reward of $300 for the arrest and conviction of the person or persons who tired his place of business in that town tho 10th of last Octolier.
