Wanch.'ird. alias James McDonald, the young man who recent ly gave himself up to the Uwdon po lice as the man who robbed the onic of the Western Lumber Company, has been fined 1250 bv Judge Campbell, of Portlnnd, for turning In fuko fire alarms. Itlanchard said he was about ISM shy and that he would gi to Jail for 125 days. The young man seems to be mentally deranged and Is appar ently desirous of breaking Into Jail. The case of Mrs. Ella Scott vs. the A. SCR. U.. for 15000 dumag.'S, waa con tinued before Juda-e McBrldo yesterday morning. During the forenoon the plain tiff put a photographer on the stand to corroborate thi pictured evidence pre sented, and later called Prlts MHlcr. who lives near the scene of the wreck In which Mrs. Scott' husband vag kill ed. At noon court adjourned and at 1 o'rock the Jury went up the road on a special train to view the place where the accident occurred. At 4 o'clock the train returned, but the 'case vas not continued. Evidence will be presented rapidly from this time , on, and there Is little: question that the case will be concluded during; the present week. It Is Hkely that the suit of W. C. Par win agalnat th Astoria aV Columbia Itiyer Hal I road Cimipany will be settled out of court. Mr. parson brought ult to compel the railroad company it ob mrv the term of ai agreement rmule at It lime of t'ie granting of the right of way. Under the term of th agree ment the company was not lo Interfere with Hi., logging right of the plaintiff. The c iMiiany I now building a culvert under It tra.-k n th plaintiff will be enillil -d In exteid hi I iglfltlg chute, and the aellon will probably lie droppvJ by Mr, Parson. til the probal court yi-s'erlay the flmil account of George II.

The recent ill In the prtcs of l"ga and the new ajatem of scaling adopted by the mills I haa prompted Ihe firm to close dwn Ihe camp. Mr. Hrix estimate) that the amount of Ik now In the lower Co lumbia doe nK exited "5,000,000 feet, and he look for an advance In prices before spring, as several other large ramp will suspend operation within a short ;'me. The uggtlon made some lime ago thai the annual regatta be held under thr ausulrn of a local corpora;!. i has been the subject of much discussion of late, and step for the formation of Ihe company will probably soon be taken. The plan of lnrirporatlon In- dud's a movement to secure state a'd. as I given other similar events throughout the date. The organisation of the company would Insure sufficient fund and a flrat-claes regatta each )ear. It Is alio suggested that horse races be added as a feature and that an annual fair be held In connection with Ihe arquatic apvirts. The atate woukl toubtlea make an appropriation equal to that given the fair at The Dalle. WVn the Portland fair was opened a few day ago the Oregonlan published a caricature of Admiral Edwards, who wa credited with the statement that 'he fair wt better thao, the Astoria regatta. While In town yesterdiy the a lmlrai t vk occasion to deny the state ment. He says he did not make "Of course, the Portland fair' all right," he said, "but whoever heard of anything better than the Astoria re gatta? Why, the Idea Is ridiculous! I understand that ihe artist must make picture of the boys on an iccaston of the kind, but tie wants to te a re fill that he does not reflect on the re gatta. That's a delicate subject with me. and when I saw that funny pic ture I wa pretty mad. I came down especially to SMUiire myself." It Is need less to a id that the admiral succeeded- a Th,- Drttlsh bark County of Pembroke, which sailed from the Columbia In April, with a full cirit.i of Hour, arrived out at Qocenatown Monday, after a passage of lo0 days. Thl Is the seven teenth vessel of the April fleel to arrive oui. leaving but twj vessels sailing In that month to be acountej for. Of these vessels, Ihe Forrest Hall Is reaching out for long-passage honors, with a voyage of lf.S days already to her credit. The Alghurth Is now out 151 day. From present Indication the average pas.ag for the April ships will be about the poorest for any motjth of the year, as the few fast passages made by ihe ship sailing that month have not been suffi cient In number to bring up the aver ase of the slow ones. Two of the May ship have arrived out, and there are now leaa than a dozen of last season's lU'-.'l from Astoria still on the way. According to reports brought from Noma by the steamer Oregon, the In dian of that section are threatened with starvation, In the past few month about 300 natives have visited Nome, bringing furs and Ivory to trade for supplb-s, but aj soon as their goods were disposed of whisky peddlers get among them and soon exchanged liquor for the proceeds of their sales, and the Indians have remained camped on the beach In a drunken stupor- They have parted wlUi all their money and valua bles and have ailowej the sesaon to pass In which they could lay In sup plies of Hah for use during the long winter season, and if they are not look ed after by the government suffering and starvation will follow, not only among those camped on the beach at Nome, but at the village from where these Indiana came to lay in supplies for their families.

LEVY 10 BE DECREASED R EDUCTION OF FOLK MILI I'KOHAHI.E THIS YEAR. County Will Require I.caa Fund for OficrutiiiK Expenses and Vuluutlon In IliKher. In ll -atinna are that the 1901 tax levy will b very mm h e than that mad- In 1900. Tne levy will not b made un til February, but at the next meeting of Ihe county court, which occur ear ly In October, an estimate of the prob able expense of the county for the imlng y-ar will be made; and from that eiflnuUs th levy fixed. At the present time the debt of th county is only about 122.000. a material reduction having been made during the paat year. Thla will result In a saving of something like I20W in the Interest account. La: year Clatsoo pall to the atate 14000 due on delinquent taxes, but no such payment will be required th.i year. While the figures here given are approximate, it expected by Judge Ciray that the running expenses of the county will be between 15000 and 10 less than In 1SO0. Last year the amount of mony raised for county purpose wa I45.IM- For 1901 the amount re quired will probably be about HO.000. The county levy last year wa seven teen mill on an assessed valuation of i:.87.2M. This year' valuation will, when the board of equalisation com pletes Its work, be about l3.100.fXs, and a levy of II mills wUI bring in the nec essary 140.000. Thl will be a reduction of 4 mill in the assessment. There I considerable talk of raising a funl for the building of a new oourt bouse, and also for the construction of a bridge over the Lewia and Clark rtver In the city the building of the bridge Is not regarded with favor, but there Is a well-delned sentiment (n favor of building a new government building. The present structure Is little better than a barn, and. while It could be got ten along with for several yeans to come, the opinion is general that a new court houae is more essential at the present time than the construction of road and bridge In those part of the county which have river connection with the city. Should the new courthouse movement assume proportions and the necessary number of names be secured on a peti tion for a lery for the purpose, the as sessment for, the ensuing year would not be reduced. If a new courthouse la built. It will be a substantial struc ture and will cost, perhaps, between 135.000 and 150,000. An assessment for It consxructlon would doubtless extend over a period of four or flv years. A 3-mlll levy on the present valuation of $3,100,000 would net I4C500 In five years, anl would enable the county official to construct a most creditable building. There will be no reduction In the city levy, as the valuation of property In the city limits has not been disturbed to any appreciable extent. The city valua tion Is about 11.500,000, and the amount derived from the maximum levy allowed by law 10 mills doe not bring In a sufficient amount to pay Interest on the debt of the municipality. Thus, while the affair of the county are In flrst rlass shape, the city Is head over heeia In debt. A comparative statement of the as sessed valuation and amount of money derived for county purposes for the past flftivn years follows: Year. Valu:lon. Tax. 1SSS 12. 1 11.423 121.250 1KT 2.130.3S5 17.555 1SNS 2.4S5.6L7 25.8S9 1SS9 4.101.293 S2.Siu ISM 3.4H.527 3S.118 1S91 5.1&,0o0 41.280 isfcj 5.700.259 49.513 1S93 3.S75.731 27.167 1S94 3.639.659 40.036 lSf5 3.708.400 40.7iiS 1S96 3.295.035 . 39.539 tP7 2.S89.HOS 34.669 1H 2.418.47S 41.114 Wi 2.565.313 &S.491 1900 2.6.S7.254 45.6J0 1301 3,100.000 40.300 Th. 1901 assessed valuation nj tax are estimated. Th? difference In the amounts derived for different years Is due to the levies made- Up to 1S96 the irreatest levy made for county purposes vas 1115 mills, but since then the levy has been as high as 17 mills. Of course, the valuation haa been much lower of late year., so the levy was higher. The reduction In the valuation was made necessary by the action of Multnomah county, which, with rare enterprise, re duced Its valuation and permitted other counties to bear part of Its share of the burden of maintaining the state govern ment. Multnomah's coup, while decid edly unique and original, did aot lona remaln unseen, and, along with other gcod communities, Clatsop, too, came down on the valuation, though Increas ing the levy so the amount derived for local purpose would not be lessened. Now a new system of state taxation has been arranged, each county paying its share on a percentage basis, and there Is no need for low , valuations. Indeed, it Is generally considered good policy to keep up the valuation and reduce the levy to the minimum. The county records show that the city has had some stormy times in the mat ter of tax levies. Everything went smoothly up to 1890. In those days the rltv made and collected Ita own levy, and also fixed the valuation. In 1890 the assessed valuation In the city was $4,- 429,406, or about 11.300,000 more than the assessed valuation In. the entire coun ty at the present time- In 1891 the tax roll dlsappered and la 1S93 there waa a double assessment. The assessed val uation was placed at 16,580,864 and a levy of 15 mills was made. - It netted 198,741.45 and some trouble.
