THE OREGON STATE CENSUS
The new census law having failed
to pass the recent session of the leg
islature, the state census will be tak
en this year in accordance with the
old law. Secretary of State Dunbar
has already placed an order with
State Printer Whitney for the neces
sary blanks to be used by the assess
ors. The law provides that the county
assessors shall enumerate the popula
tion of the state, the number of legal
voters, the number of males and fe
males residing in the state, and the
following general information as to
the general resources of the state to
wit: The number of bushels of wheat,
oats, corn, barley, rye, apples and po
tatoes raised; the number of tons of
bay: the pounds of wool, tobacco,
cheese and butter; the ounces of gold
dust; feet of lumber: barrels of sal
mon, and number of mules, horses
and cattle raised and produced during
the preceding year.
The ascertaining of these facts will
devolve upon the assessors, who shall
turn the rolls over to the clerks, who
will in turn make a copy to file in his
office and then turn it over to the
secretary of state.
The enumeration will probably be
gin about the first of May, as the law
provides that it must be begun before
the 10th of that month.
The method of proving up on home
steads has been changed by rules re
cently adopted by the department at
Washington. A special government
agent will visit all the principal towns
of the land district each month on a
specified date for the purpose of tak
ing homestead proofs. The land of
fice will advertise for proof in the lo
cal paper nearest the land and those
having proofs to make will meet the
agent on the date fixed. The new
role is designed to prevent fraudulent
proof of resident or claim. Under
the old rule proof could be made to
a uniiea states commissioner and a
special agent visited a locality only
where there was fraud suspected.
Over in Linn County the other day
a cow was killed by lightning. After
the storm a farmer came along and
seeing the dead cow went to the
house of the owner and said: ''Jim,
your black cow's been struck and
killed." "Is that so," answered the
cow's owner. "That was the best
cow I bad. She was worth $550 at
least. What train struck herr "She
wasn't hit by a train," said the first
farmer. "Lightning struck her."
"Oh, well" said the owner of the cow,
"I thought it was a train. Well, I
don't care much. That old cow was
not worth over $10 anyhow.
