ABRAHAM, Proprietor JACKSON STREET In the sheriff's Bale for taxes, which took place Wednesday, Dec. 28, there appeared large numbers of delinquent items of taxes against timberlandjproper ty where no patent from the government had been issued, and the present own ers have been of the opinion that they were not taxable. Many of the owners are non-residents, ami others who have received notice have made protest that they have received no patent and for that reason the land is not taxable. However this may appear, Sheriff McClallen was required to go ahead and sell the land as the law provides. By the terms of tho law the land becomes assessable to the entryman from the time he makes application for his final proof. It may be that as much as two years will elapse between the time of making final papers and the issuing of patent, bnt during that time the land is assessed to the holder, and this point in many instances is misunderstood. There might be a case where a man would be taxed on a piece of land for two or three years, and then fail to get a patent, in which case the countv would be bound to refund the amount of taxes paid.

For the be aefit of Taxpayer . ? will say the directors do not vote tbe tax j they did call a meeting of all tbe tax payers for th.it purpose and pub lished the fact in both the Riseburg pa pers, with an urgent request for all in terested in schools to turn out. Tax payer was conspicuous by his absence. Taxpayer shows his ignorance when be ya no other district in tbe state voted as much. This is not true. Grants Pass voted 12 mills last year, Drain 100 mills: manv other districts in the state voted more than 12, names can be given if necessary. If Roseburg district was to vote a tax on the same ratio as Port land we would vote seven times 12 mills. Portland has only 25 times as many pu pils on the school census, and 75 times tbe assessed valuation, uses twice tbe amount for current expense and teach ers' salary per pupil as District No. 4. Koseburg school has doubled in attend ance in tbe last five years ; in the year 1499 the assessed valuation of District No 4 was $657,000 00; present valuation as given by the County Clerk is onlv $tft0,000 00 ; will Taxpayer please "show us" how to run a 100 per cent more school on a 7 per cent increased assess ment? As to the charge of unbusiness like methods of the directors, they have been endorsed every year by bonafide taxpayers, two of them are serving their second terms. Next year there wilt be three directors to elect, a chance for Taxpayer to show the people how to run the school on wind.

Rice, in the absence ofMayor Hoover, on his honey moon trip, occupying the chair. The council decided to be represented in the case of B. Brockway vs. the city of Koseburg, which will be heard in tbe Supreme eourt on Jan. 3, 11406. Although under tbe title of tbe case the city appears in opposition to B. Brockway, it will, in the pending hear ing before the Supreme Court, respond jointly with B. Brockway against the ; appeal taken by the Roseburg Water A Light Co., who is endeavoring to collect j from the city a lighting bill of $2754 50. Victory for the Company means added expense to the city of about $500 in in terest and eosts. Attorneys Dexter Rice and F. W. Benson, who won the case tor 15.

Black Patti and her i xcellent com pany of colored ariists were at the Rose burg Theatre last evening. It was a rare treat, for Patti can sing as no other neero woman, and she is fairly good looking, aside from the hue of her chance. skin. Her voice retains much of its vigor, and the years spent behind the foot lights have dimmed but little the clear, resonant tones of that sweet voice. Black Patti stands in a class by kerself, and has won meritorious praise from potentates and pluhians. She is accompanied on her tour by Mi s Sarah Green, also a colored woman, with a face of the Castitian type, and endowed with beauty. Her voice is swet and psrfect, and she bids fair to rival the black queen in future. John Rucker, the "Alabama Blos som," has been through Roseburg be fore, and he knows how to make tbe people laugh. He has the championship cavity in his face, sn l a very good voice for singing coon songs. The rest of the cast were good, and 'Looney Cooney Dreamland baa lots of snap and ginger to it, and compares favorable to the beat productions tour ingthe coast this year, in fact is Ur su perior to the majority ol them.

' It has been generally recognized that the Douglas Electric Company was the real plaintiff in the suit.) S. The sait was transferred to Jack son County, where Judge H. K. Hanna annulled the contract an i perpetually enjoined tbe city from paying for any services under it. The city made no de fense in the case, but it was contested by the Roseburg Water and Light Co., which, upon its own request, was made a co-defendant. 4. The Roseburg Water A Light Company appeals the case to the Su preme court, where it will be heard on Jan. 3, M05. 5. Pending action by the Supreme Court, the Roseburg Water A Light Company offers to settle with the city at the rate of $110 per month for the lighting Svhich they lurniahea despite the institution of the suit. The city re plies by offering to settle at the rate of $100 per month, and the company re jects it. The original claim of tbe com pany under the $125 rate amounted to a net total of $2754.50 for lighting from March 1902-04. In the latter year the ! 1 . 1 f- company was succeeuen oy me i uip- qua Water, Light a Power Co. 6. Although originally a joint defend ant with the Koseburg waier i.igni Co., the city decides to respond jointly with B.
