county assessor . Mr. Josoph T. Peters
was called to the chair and after a brief
statement of the object which brought
them together a motion' was made by
D. ,M. 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. ,

The Mie-Mae Coacsrt.
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.

baccoes, cigars, etc- Besides these the
