The Oregonion of today says : "Wasco
county is said to be so deeply in debt,
an increase in the assessment rate is
contemplated." Where the Oregonion
got its information we know not, but the
statement is wholly without foundation.
We have just learned the following facts
from Judge Thornbury and County Clerk
Crossen, each one of whom confirms the
others statement. Four years ago the
indebtedness of Wasco county was in
the neighborhood of fSO.OOO. The pres
ent indebtedness, making allowance for
available assets, is in the neighborhood
of 55,000. A statement of the financial
condition of the county will be furnished
by the county clerk for publication on
the first of April next, and the clerk and
judge both believe that it will show an
indebtedness somewhere between fifty
and sixty thousand dollars. This is a
a showing that no county officer need be
ashamed of. A reduction of $25,000 is
no small testimony to the efficiency of
me present county court.
The gallant and persistent struggle of
Mr. Hermann before the river and har
bor committee of the house, that has
just ended by his having the sum of
435,000 placed in the bill ordered re
ported to the house for the Cascade
Locks, and better still the work being'
finished by contract merits the deep
gratitude of every friend of an open river.
Now let the bill pass the bouse in this
fashion and it will certainly pass the
senate and then there is hope that the
present generation will realize a hope so
'long deferred that it has made the heart
flick for many a year to think of it. The
-state can build the dalles portage and,
better still for Wasco and Sherman
counties, build it on .the Oregon side of
wia river.
The quarantine officials in British
Columbia have received orders from the
acting minister of customs at Ottowa to
enforce in future the regulations against
American cattle imported into Canada.
This action will make it necessary for
such cattle to undergo ninety days
quarantine and will thereby practically
prohibit the business, as it is .doubtless
intended to do. The cities of Victoria
and Vancouver draw their beef supply
wholly from the, United States and the
enforcement of the orders is in spite of
vigorous protests from the people of
onuBD iOiumoia.
An enterprising paper in New York
city lately engaged, at its own expense,
in the work of cleaning the streets in 6r
"Vler to demonstrate the cost at which the
work could.be done and make compari
son between that and the actual cost
paid by the city. A street cleaning force
jvas sent out each day, for a number of
days, and their work as to quantity and
cost was carefully noted.' On this basis
it was found that the city could, be com
pletely swept every forty-eight hours,
for an entire year, at a saving below the
present cost of no less than $1,618,379.40.
Great is Tammany.
1 he Portland Telegram very guilelessly
and truthfully says : "Toooften articles
are ordered from some distant place in
the mistaken idea that they are cheaper,
wheu as a matter of fact they could be
purchased just as cheaply, all things
considered, at home. The price of an
article is not the only element going to
prove whether it is cheap or dear." Let
the Telrgram apply this safe and patri
otic principle to national affairs and it is
all that the most ardent protectionest
could desire.- -
