Ireflch-, td"lhe effect rthM the county court should' malce its' levy from the returns of the' county assessor. The motion was ; seconded c, by . Rev. Mr. Spencer, who earnestly urged that it was the duty of the county court to up hold and recognize the work of the state board. Mr. Spencer, held that in ignor ing the work of the board aa Multnomah county had done we were assuming to be judges of the constitutionality of the law that created the board, a thin? that the supreme court alone had a right to do. He believed that mortgages should be tared at their face value and that if we ignore ' the 'work' of the state f board we so' far' give our 'moral support to a county that has become notorious for its opposition to any legislation that tended to make it pay its just proportion of the taxes of the state. Hugh Gonrlay, replied by saying that if it were a question of vio lating the 'statutes, ' the state board had set the example. ' All property in the state must be assessed equally. It did not require the supreme court to deeide that it was illegal to assess one class of real estate at ' one-third ' or one-half its value and tax mortgagee which the law created real estate for the purposes of assessment and taxation, at their full face. This matter had already been tested and Judge Deady ' had decided it could not be done. There could be only one outcome to a suit of this character should the state sue Multnomah county, and in the event of sneh an action if the supreme court should sustain tne state board we would lose nothing. Wasco county could In that ' case pay the add! tional state tax and that would end the matter. On the other hand should th work of the board be declared unconsti tutional, as he had not a shadow of a doubt it would be, we ' would be saved the ' endless complications that would arise from having made the county levy on an illegal basis. Mr. W. Lord said if we paid the extra $1,400 etate tax that would be the last we would see of it and that the ignoring' of the work of the state board would ' not "embarrass the state in the least. The ayes and noes were then ' called for, when the motion was 'carried " by an apparentlv over whelming majority. , up on of George Petersen of Biggs is in the vity.

The Mic-Mac concert Saturday night was a very enjeyable affair and was very largely attended, as many as forty or fifty persons having found it impossible to gain admission while nearly a bun dred persons were unable to procure seats. It was quite" successful from a financial point of view and each of the three churghes will receive about $25 after all expenses are paid. The open ing chorus, "Jingle Bells," by seventeen darky sisters under the censorship of Mrs. Varney as Aunt Dinah was excel lent and ehowed remarkable proficiency for only one week's training.' This was was followed by the solo, in Mr. Earnst.s best style, "Thy Sentinel Am I." "In the Mar Ugnt ' was rendered witli re markable sweetness, bv the Misses Mvers and Lown. This was followed by the solo, "Thy Voice is Near" by Mrs. Iochhead, the first appearance of this lady, we believe, before a Dalles audience. The rendering was very pleasing and every tone and accent manifested the accomplished artiste Then followed the chorus, "Don't Forget Dar's a Weddin' Tonight," by the darkies with Miss Rose Michell as soloist wluTse acting and rending were both ex celient." Then came the chorus, "Aunt Dinah's Quilting Party" with Miss Daisy Beall as soloist.-' As a solo this was per haps the clufdoevre of tenderness and beauty and Miss Beall rendered it very sweetly. Then came the charming song, The Old Maids of Lee" by Miss Myers. which fairly captured the house. This was followed by a cornet and piano duet, very sweetly rendered by Mrs. Dexter and Mr. Benton. ": Then came the bright particular star of the evening, Miss Sarah E. Walker, (Mr. John Hampshire) dressed in all the colors' of the rainbow with a most eor geous and fantastic Tiead dress that fairly stood three above her silvery wig. Miss Walker-sang' a little song composed specially for the occasion that had only one fault ; it was not long enough. . Of course she was encored but that did aot half satisfy the audience which is al' ways pleased with any character that Mr. Hampshire mav- assume on the boards. Mrs. Waters and Mrs. . Loch head' followed Miss Sarah Walker with the instrumental duet' "Fairy ' Queen,' which was well received. .'' Then followed a vocal quartette with guitar and mando lin accompaniment bp the Misses Myers and Crandall and Messrs. Earnst and Smith. A most enjoyable and pleasant evening was brought to a close by a solo and cborus from Aunt JJinah and the darkies.
