Then, through the advice of 1 friend I began tak ing S. S. S. Vour medicine seemed to have an immediate eflect. I took six bottles, and tovday am sound and well. That was two or three years ago, but I hare seen no evidence of the return of the disease, and .' take this opportunity to thank you for what it has done for me. ft saved my life.

But this does tiot help the matter any. How at. Linn and other rouutiei, whoae county courts hare too much common honesty to thus violate their official obligations, to avoid paying a great. 1 proportionate ahare of their atate tax than Murion and Multnomah ' If au Assessor who has taken the oath of his office pre set itied by statute aaya that he assesses money at 50 cents on the dollar he ia guilty of perjury aud should be prosecuted there for. For the public good uewspnpers should call the attention of the public to these open confessions of dereliction of official duty. In this connection a letter from a Califor nia capitalist to a friend in Portlaud pub lished in the Oregotiian of Jan. 11th, is interesting reading. He aaya: January, 7, 1885). Dear Sir Accept thanks for late copies of the Oregonian. I have perused them piety thoroughly and have more light upon your section of the coast as to its resources, etc. Still some statements I caunot under stand why some counties have increaaul and others decreased ao much. I.ane coun ty for instance, haa au increase of 9111,000; Marion, which I thought a belter cnuuty, has a decrease of t'J.lMNl.tNaJ; Benton and Linn. I supposed a No. 1 counties, both decreased. I also see nearly all of youi counties are heavily iu it. bt, which I cannot understand, as you have not been fleeced by railroaila as we have. Your pub lic roads 1 would think cost much more lhau ours in building and repairing, hut it seems that an addition of CO.IHK) inhabitants ought to keep your valuation iu really ou the in crease. PerhupH you need a state board ol equalization, hiuI to make your city aaacas meuta higher. It may be the whole state is working against the interests of Portland and its wealthy nieu. I also notice quite 1 large rxeinptiou from taxation, which 1 don't understand. I am a citizen of Lane county --at least I have taxes to pay at Eugene on lauds, and wonld not be surprised if quite nu emigration from here would drop into thai county this season. Story and the liDnatic. In his guarded cell in the Oregon Insane Asylum. Frank Corea.the lunatic and would be murderer and suicide, walks Ihe floor and tells the story of his ra h deeds. His story meets with ample eoroborrntiou and there can no longer be a doubt but the bullets that pierced Frank A Avery Hew from the pistol of thu maniac. Late 011 the night of the attempted assaasi nution Cort a stopped at the residence of F. E. Eldridge, on the Salem and Cbampoeg road. Here he recited the atorv miuutely and correctly. Me told of the two men Avery and McKay, he of the blotidn mua tache quarreling over a woman nnd threat ening him with a terrible fate.

An intcrcstintr and aoniuwhat enmrdicnted dispute concerning land, the result of which J J.. t . I . I , . 1 . uiipeiiiia 011 wuai i. uiuncr laun, nun wum ia agricultural land, is now being iuvestigated at the land office at Oregon City. Home time since two men homeateadetl a quarter sectiou each in the woods, near the logging road and timber chute built by ('apt. A. P. Atikony, away down the Columbia, some where in the vicinity of Westporl, and now owned by a man named Paraons. After a time, these men abandoned the claims, and two other moo, Lowry and Spear, filed ou thorn under the timber act as "laud chietly valuable for timber and unfit for cultivation." Betoro they hud received certilleatea to theae claims, two other men entered upon them, and located them aa homeateada. And now the land office at Oregon City and Special Land Agent BrO kenbraugb, and the timber claimants, aud the would-be agriculturalists, and a host of witnesses iu attendance, are eudeavoring to settle whether the sections am timber land or agricultural laud. It appears that there ia a lot of good timber on the land, and also that the soil Is good and could be cultivated if the timber were cleared off. It is expected that some time, some bow, some where, some one may definitely Bottle what ia the meauing of the phrase, "chiefly valuable for timber aud not tit for oilltlva tion,"andso draw the hue between two elasses of land and put ao end to lots of litigation and trouble.

Iron Works to furnish ihe steam en gines and all iron iqnipini lit. for the new river steaiulawt to th-l.inlt lor the (I K A N. Company. The vessel will l M0 feel in length. jU feet beam, aud the hold will have a depth of i f. et ll will lie without doubt the lightest draft vitamer, for Ihe length over all, lhat has evirhetu run iu ibis country. It will he us. .1 on the Cpper Willamette, and it ia the itileution to run her all summer. The boat will draw only thirteen mchea of water aud can rnu where no other boat now iu the service dare attempt to go. Iu the past, navigation at certain periods during the sum mer uioiuba has had to be suspended ou the I'pper Wlllaun tie b. ..us, ut ino ahallow ueaa of the Water and the oousequeiit dauger of getting fast ou the rocks With the straiuer drawing but a little over a f-..,t, the company can coutiune busiut-as almost the round. Such enterprise cannot be too freely com meuded. It is I. ih u great advantage fo the public, tboae who ure dependent upon river navigation, and a sure, way for the company 10 make mouey. By using such light draft boats the uee. ssity of dredging rivers like the l'pier Willamette, where ahipa do not and uever cau go, will be entirely utiueces tary. It is extravagant lo make a cbanuel ten feet deep when a boat could travel aa well in thirty iuchea of water. Heuce the ednption of such Isiats means u great saving to the tavnayiiig public. The contract for the hull and other wood work on this steamer will soon be let; iu fuel the bids are all ill nud opened, though the awarding has not yet been made I he boat will be hiiiahed as soon aa possible, and is to be a work of elegance, coiiiniucd with dura bilil y uiul utility. Teh gram ... A RlrdMyt View of the World. There is a widespread demand by all readers and students for a work that aball furnish coinpaeily and attractively, all the essential (acts and statistics of the different regions of the world, and the races that in habit tin 111. All this iufoimstiou has been industriously sought, carefully tested uud plow d and is In illmuily told ill one handy and handsome volume by OaMlsM Reclus, the famous F'reiich geographer aud savant. The author has really succeeded lo a sur prising degree iu ucciimplishiiig his pur pose. It is a wnnderliil book uud the 0 is 110 other like it . It is just what its title ret). reseuts it to be a honk all around the world - but it is the world seen through the eyes of the largest intelligence and described with inimitable vigor, freshness and pictur esque grace, couihitiud with studious and painstaking accuracy. The result is the story of the world. The more the volume is looked into the greater is the sense of ill wide scope and its masterly preparation. Attractive lending lor the family gathered around the evening lamp, it is also a handy book ot immediate reference for the busy man who would illuminate bis daily news with more accurate information. In brief, a great deal of hard work, palns t king aud skill have gone into the prepare lion of this volume, which ia no catch penny concern, presenting a huddled muss of pitcli-foiktd facta to the innocent reader under the pretense of eticyulopiedio informa tion. It is what it professes to be, a abort view of all the peoplea and countries under thesuu.su iiiraugcd and digested that a great deal of useful and interesting knowl edge ia packed handily iu a limit, d apace, While a child woul never tire ol the tasci nation of the (acts llliiunuiited b) 1171 illus Irutions of which U'.l ure lull page, Ihe most thoroughly read uiuu will limi on every page something, the importance of which be uever realized so fully us when a geographi cal experts pieselita It with scielilitlu effect iu attractive phraseology. The man alio prepared this work is 11 genius in such ef forts. There sre uo weak spots it. The publishers have done their beat for Ibe on ii iincal puis of the work, and their en terprise leaves nothing to be desired in that respect. The J. Dewing 813 Market St., Hun Fran cis. ,1, Cel., are tbe sole agents for the work this side of the Rocky mountains and all applications (or agencies should be ad dressed lo them. Flooring Sam Joues. Vicksbirg Herald. Rev. Ram Jones whoops up the boys sum. times and rakns them terribly about Ibeir gambling and drinking fiolics. "Ob, I've beeu all along there, boys. I know all about, and I used to go to balls and dunce, too, boys. But when I wanted to get mar ried, wbeu I wanted lo settle down with a good wife, I quit drinking uud gambling, and I didn't go to a ball room lo gel my wife, but I went to a prayer meeting aud 1 got a good one." He told this in Texas, and when be returned to bis boarding bouse his landlady, who bad heard his remarks, said : "I don't blame you, Brother Jones, but poor Miller Jouea; where did sin go lo get her bus baud?"
