er R. Dyott talked to the class on "The
Privileged Life." .
He told them that self -discovery, self
realisation, self-control and self-dedication
were the four great problems of
life, and what was necessary to do in
order to solve them.
Herman Wittenberg, chairman of the
board of education, was Introduced

The crowd in the tax department of
the sheriffs office these days makes
he rush hour at Brooklyn bridge look
like a cheaa tournament.' Nor does the
occasional Bowl of rage from a tax
payer who believes himself overtaxed
detract rrom the aptness of the com
parison.
Chief Denntv H; ft. Martin turned over
to the county treasurer yesterday $20,
836. this beinr the tax recelnts for the
first two days of February, 1909. This
is an average of a little over f 10. 000 .a
aay taxen in Dy the aepartmwit.
Notwithstanding the fact that SO
extra clerks are employed to facilitate
the handling of the increased business
and that two night shifts are on duty-
it is impossioie to Keep up witn vine
work. It Is necessary that each daVs
receipts be distributed to the different
county runds ana this apportionment is
a considerable task in itself. Mr. Mar
tin said that If people who send In to
tne ornce ror statements wouia remem
ber that there are thousands of appli
cations in ahead of them and that these
all have to be taken up in turn, they
would be a little more patient In their
demands. All applications . for state
ments of taxes will be answered as soon
i possible.
There will be a turnover made to the
county treasurer every five day and
Deputy Martin expects the receipts to
average about xiu.uuu or more a aay.
DECIDE LIGHTING
CASE NEXT MONDAY
Harriraan Officials Arrange
60 Hour Portland to ;
Chicago Schedule.
Some decision will probably be hand
ed down Monday by Judge Wolverton of
the United States circuit court, Jn the
case of the Portland Railway. Light &
Power company against the city of
Portland, in the matter of the applica
tion for an injunction, seeking to pre
vent the city from prosecuting the rail
way company and its president, B. 8.
Josselyn, for violating city ordinance
No. 10003. Arguments in tne case were
heard all Wednesday afternoon.
Mr. Josselyn was arrested on com
plaint of City Attorney J. P. Kavanaugh
who charged the company with having
violated the ordinance regulating the
distances that high voltage wires should
be placed apart on cross arms and the
manner in which transmitters should be
placed. The railway counsel contend
ed that the ordinance was unconstitutional.
NEWPOKT CITIZENS
ENTERTAIN STEANGEKS
(Special r1ptch to Tb Jonraal.1
Newport. Or.. Feb. S. The social
event of the season was the reception
given in honor of the strangers In the
city by the residents. This entertain
ment was held last night at Irving Log
Cabin and was attended by over 200
citlsens and strangers. The log
cabin was an ideal place for the
gathering, and it was at Its best last
night. The- two great fireplaces were
piled high with biasing fir chunks and
the crackling flames warmed the big
rooms witn a ruddy glow.
The committee took special care that
none should leave the cabin strangers
to each other. Short addresses, music
and songs added largely to the enjoy
ment of the. occasion. The Newport
ladies served an appetising repast, wnlch
was amply sufficient for the large num
ber present. This unique entertainment
will be long remembered.
Mall is to be carried from Portland
to Chicago In (0 hours, 13 hours less
than at present, according to the train
schedule that the O. R. & N. and Unlop
racinc is arranging for its summei
service from-Portland to the east. Gen
eral Passenger Agent McMurray of the
Hartiman lines is now In Salt Lake con
ferring with Short Line officials over
ine cnange, ana u is relieved tnat it
will go into effect In May.
Among the other plans being consid
ered for the betterment of the Portland-
Chicago service Is the operation of four
daily trains to ana irom umoago.
Tn preliminary plans, as they are
being discussed now, provide for a
train to be known ss No. S. to consist of
rive mall cars. . This train, it Is ex
pected, win carry only mail, and will
be known as the fast mall.- No. 1 will
be the limited train, and will carry no
man, oniy stanaard i'unmans, Observa
tion, ana aining car. it is to te tne
regular overland limited, and will make
tne time rrom cmcaaro to Portland
about the same ss between Chicago and
Oakland. Another train, a local, will
make the Union Pacific connections at
Green River as at present, and the
rourtn win aino- connect witn the reg
ular Union pacific trains at Green
River. X
If the fast mail is put Into service It
will give Portland a servlc that h
been badly needed for years, and will
do away with the handicap the city has
suffered because of slow mail service
to ana irom tne east.
FEAR SECRET WORK
OF THE RAILROADS
The preservation and extension nf tK.
powers oi me state railroad commission
Were the text of two niohltlnn. nmm-i
by the Oak Grove Improvement asso
ciation at Its regular meeting last night.
One of these resolutions strongly fav
ored the Dlacina- of all strent railway
under the regulation of the commission.
wnue tne otner as strongly condemned
the action of certain lntereata In h.
legislature who are planning to amend
the present law so as to do "away with
some of the powers of the cnmmluiAn
and thus present a way to the abolition
of the commission.
Another resolution highly Important
to Oak Grove people was adopted. It
asks the railway people to change the
name of the station known as Center
and call It, with the station known as
Oak Grove, bv the one name of 0v
Grove. Considerable difficulty and an
noyance Is given to the business men
of the district now by the two stations
as the mail comes addressed to one sta
tion, whereas the freight sent out by
the Portland merchants has to be ad
dressed to Center.
W. Wynn Johnson of The Journal
delivered an address to the association
on "Civlo Improvement." There was a
debate between B. Lee Paget and H. G.
Starkweather on "Should Agriculture
Be Taught in Our Public Schools." Mr.
Starkweather won for the negative by
pointing out to the members the Inac
curacy in the text book used today on
the subject of agriculture.
