CHARLES HAILBORN & SON COUNTY TO ECONOMIZE Supreme Court Decision Has De prived Clatsop County of About $180,000. WORK STOPPED ON BIG ROAD No Further Dulldhiff on Xehalem IltttliwayI(K).'i Tux Roll Will Not lie Copied for HhcrlfT. The county court met In regular ses sion yesterday and Issued Instructions to Clerk Clinton to cease the work of copying the 1(02 tax roll. This order was made because of the Intimation of Oovernor Chamberlain that he would not call an extra session of the legis lature for the purpose of remedying the deficient tux law just knocked out by the sum-erne court of the state. Clerk Clinton's deputies had been engaged In the work of copying the 1(03 roll pre paratory to turning It over to Sheriff Llnvllle for collection In March. The court also Issued an order In ainutinv Roadmastcr rryt to cease work on the Nehalem road upon com pletion of the work of rocking that highway as far as the Walluskl and repairing the tut holes In that portion of the road already covered with crush ed rock. When this work Is finished work will be stopped until such time ii the court mane a innw This Instruction Is another of the re sults of the supreme court decision. The refuU of the governor to con vene the legislature In special sesslw means that Clatsop county, as well as other Oregon counties will be deprived of an entire year's tuxes. As has been previously stated, tax collections In Oregon have been one year behind, and It was Intended by the law recently declared Invalid to so adjust matters that the counties could catch up. The Intention was to prepare the 1903 roll for collection In February or March, and then to prepare the 1(04 roll for collection In OcDber of next year. The decision of the supreme court and the determination of the governor mean thnt there will be no levy on the 19(3 roll, and that no collection will be made until October, when the 1904 roll will lie collected. While the county court had not made a levy for 1(0. It Is estimated that the total amount of taxes which the county loses In consequence of the legal en tanglement Is about 1180,000. The amount of the 1902 roll, recently col lected, was 3135,000. but the assessed valuation of property was Increased about 60 per cent on the 1(03 roll. The Increased valuations would probably have resulted In a reduced assessment, nd the estimate of 1180,000 Is believed to be reasonable. The city likewise loses one year taxes, but, as Mayor Suprenant an nounced yesterday In The Astorlan, there are ample funds on hand to can th municipality through the year The city loses about 116,000.

A petition was receive i for a road In the Olney road district. The road runs near the Em gartner place, crosses the Kloskanlne river and connects with the Nehalem highway. The court appointed R, C.

The Commercial Club football Uam had its flrst land practice last evening since the game with Fort Stevens. At lde from an Injury sustained by Wedei tha men came out of the game in ex cellent condition. Mr. Wedel suffered a wrenched leg that will incapacitate him for the contest with Hwaco that will be pulled off next Sunday. Several changes have been made In the line-up. Tallant roes to left tackle, Graham be. ing moved to left end and Minard going to right end. The back field will re main the same, Stockton's good work at quarter assures him his place In the team. It la expected that the game with Hwaco will be a hard one as Sea borg, the speedy .lalfback nd Wilson the veteran tackle are both back in the game. Astoria's showing in the last game gives promise of another victory and the aim of the coaches for the rest uf the week will be to strengthen the defense.

The socialists of Astoria met last night, re-organlxed the local branch, which had permitted Its charter to ex plre, and nominated a rew candidates for city office. The meeting was held at old Liberty hall, which has been converted -into 'the finest convention place in the city. The meeting1 was called to order by Charles C. C. Rosen berg, who was elected temporary chair- man. J. F. Welch was elected tempor ary secretary and Thomas Bush tem porary financial secretary. Mr. Welch made a brief address to the 15 delegates present and told them that their condition was due at all times to their votes. If they expected some thing better in life' than they were now getting, they would have to vote prop erly to bring about the desired change. The salvation of the masses rested with socialism, the speaker said, and the principles enunciated by the social ist party wre the only ones to which the masses could turn for relief; they Insure to workmen the full product of their labor.

LANGFITT BOARDS CHINOOK Trial Test of Dredge will Made In Few Days. Be From Citizens on Timely Subject The people Of Astoria are, to a unit, In favor of . the proposed extension or the harbor line, providing that such ex tension will not prove injurious to the channel and that the property Interests of those engaged in business on tne water front may be subserved In any manner deemed most practicable by ex pert engineers. This was the sense expressed at the mass meeting held yesterday afternoon at the Chamber of Commerce and pre- slded over by Mayor Suprenant. There was a large attendance of represents tlve cltlxens and a number expressed their views on the subject. The line nro3os?d met with no strong objee tton but there to a feeling that were It drawn further north the result would prove more beneficial to the city in gen f ral and certain institutions in particu lar that propose to do a larfee export business, and whose interests aepena chiefly with good depth of water. The meeting proved altogether harmonious snd while Major Langfltt did not pre tend to give definite replies to all ques tions asked relative to dredging effects and the lasting good to be den(d from the proposed extension, Ms words, nevertheless, had their effect and tie made it plain that the opinions expressed and the suggestions made would have their weight In the flnal de cision of the government. A chart prepared by Major Langfltt was shown to the gentlemen present and this elicited the principal discus sion. The chart suirtrested a harbor line 200 feet north of the present one, but this appeared to be held in gener al disfavor the evident wish being that th line be established riot less than 150 feet beyond the one suggested. MARINE NOTES. The steamer Aberdeen left out yester day for San Francisco, with 550,000 feet of lumber. The steamer Vosburg arrived yester day from Tillamook. She nrougni around a quantity of buttr and cheese The steamer Columbia departed yesterday for San Francisco. She took on at Astoria 'S5 acks of oysters and 4263 bundles of shooks. Major Langfltt and Captain Sanford upon their arrival yesterday noon from Portland, went directly to the lower harbor and boarded the big dredge Chinook. The Inspection made of the vessel was not Intended to be a final one, but enough was seen to show that with little Dreparation the work of deepening the channel may be befcun. Ballast to yet to be taken out and some Boniomnt will be removed from, the deck, after which a trial will be made. This will take place In the vicinity of the snot where the ship-now lies. The date Is not let but the test will pro bably not be made until the flrst part of next week. With the visiting officials and all others who have Inspected the Chinook the opinion Is held that the dredge will meet all requirements demanded of her and little preparation will be necessary before she begins systematic work. A regular plan has not yet been outlined for the Chinook to pursue In the pros- cutlon of her work, the Intention of Major Langfltt being to confer with those who have the proposed dredging directly In hand before a decision Is I reached. : TRY TO EVADE POLL TAX District Supervisors Have Trou- hie In Making: Collections. The usual trouble of this time of the year is now being experienced by the county road supervisor In collecting poll tax. Frequently suit is brought to re cover the amount and the officials are determined having the delinquents come to time and pax the tax. Archie Sutton was haled before Justice of the Peace Goodman recently by Dan McLane, supervisor for district No.ll Suton asserted that he Intended to pay the tax at Linton where he was em ployed, but this he was assured would profit him nothing. Tuesday was the day set for his appearance to answer and a letter was received on that date by the court asking for an account of the cost of the suit together with bill for the tax. The case was finally set tied yesterday by defendant remitting Mrs. W.S.Kinney yesterday leased the store room adjoining Griffins nook store in the Kinney brick to D.
