money-order business alone has so in
creased this year that it takes all the

Sherman county has been quite hasty
in making her levy on assessments this
season. The state board of equalization
has not met yet, and it fixes the state
levy before counties go through the op
eration. Wasco county ' will not make
her levy until about the first of Janu
ary. Sherman counties assessment is
less by over $400,000 this year than last,
and as ber treasury is about empty, is
after a replenishment -early that ehe
may bold her record; which is a difficult
thing.' , ' ; ....:"'.'" v

. Appropriate to the gathering at The
Dalles armory tonight, we are permitted
to say that throughout his inspection r
tbejbngadier-general has been impressed
by ttye excellent uiartial.iu moat of -the
companies, but he feels called upon to
say that they have not been-1 properly
provided for or maintained by the stale,
and .have worked along through discour
agements that would have, disheartened
less patriotic men. "It ieonlv just," he
says,, "that these men, : who sacrifice

to render the state effective service in
its hour of need should not be expected
to supply the means as well aa the ser
vice. They need clothing as well as

can,' knife, fork, spoons and-tin cap.
Tents should be provided for each regi
ment " and company." The briiadier
general estimates that $06,000 would put
the troops on a satisfactory fooling.
The state is indebted to the United
States government ' about "' $14,000 " for
arms and equipments, and until this is
paid it can receive no benefit from the
-"; i.al appropriation made by congress.
e state appropriation of one-fifth of
the mill ia insufficient to meet tbe emer
gency, and it is recommended that tbe
military tax be increased to two-firths or
mill, and an appropriation of $10,000
made thia . year to meet immediate
mergencies. At the meeting of the
t'ate military board at Portland on the
5th it was decided not to bold an en
ampment next year, owing to lack o"
funds. New rules were adopted but as
they must he submitted to the . attorney
general they cannot yet be made public.
They work no radical change, however,
in the matter of naval bat: 11 ion it was
recommended that two companies be de
tailed as coast guards. Should the rec
ommendation meet the approval of the
governor, companies will be located, one
at Astoria and the other at Portland, to
be subject to first regiment.
