Thayer, at a recent meet ing of the Multnomah county school board, submitted his opinion regarding the right of the county treasurer to pay state taxes out of the moneys in bis hands realized from the first tax collec tions, which will be applicable to the action of our own county treasurer. The opinion indicates that the county treas urer cannot infringe upon any of the special funds specified by law. After reviewing all the sections of the statutes referring to the collection of taxes and and the duties of the county treasurer regarding special funds, the school fund in. particular, Judge Thayer con cludes by saying that said fund must be kept by the county treasurer intact, subject only to apportionment by the county superintendent, a9 provided by subdivision 5, eection 2590, Hill's code.

Haworth, printer, 118 Court St. tf Brethren ahd ITltea or The Dalits and Cascade Locks Visit Hood Kiver. Last week the Masons of Hood River extended an invitation to The Dalles Masons andheir wives to visit them on Saturday afternoon. The same invita tion was sent to Cascade Locksi Not withstanding the ' rain began , a steady down-pour about the time of starting, a goodly number of Masons some accom panied by tlieir wives, boarded the cattle-train, and were even more crowded th an the cattle, but arrived in a happy mood, after an hour and a half of in tenee discomfort. The Hood River Masons and ladies of the Eastern Star vied with each ciuer in the kindness of their reception.. Mrs. Brosius, head of the Eastern Star Lodge, and Mrs. E. L. Smith received and in troduced . visiting ladies in an easy and pleasing manner. Hon. E. L. Smith and Mr. Morris, master of the lodge, re ceived the gentlemen, and in an incredi bly short time Dalles, Hood River and .Locks people were chatting like old friends (which many of them were). In a few minutes the gentlemen were escorted to the Masonic lodge to witness the work of the third degree. Sixty masons were assembled, a, fine, manly company. After conferring the degree they returned to the hotel, where the ladies were being entertained in a charming manner by their hostesses. Almost immediately the order was given, "Masons take their wives and proceed to the dining room," where the eye was greeted by a lovely sight long tables, beautifully laid and fairly groan ing with everything dainty and deli cious. .The Eastern Star are adepts in preparing a banquet, as . well as enter taining visitors. Goodness and quan tity tried to excel each other, and both were nnlimited. , - After the banquet the .Masons re turned to the lodge room for the lecture, and most interesting part of the cere mony, and ' the ladies to the parlor, where they spent the time pleasantly with duplicate whist, music, (games and conversation. Mrs. Lease came in as a subject of criticism, but no one ex pressed a desire to- join her lodge. Ore gon ladies are above key-hole dis coveries. " Among those from the Locks we noticed C. C. Hobart and D. L. Cates, old-time Dalles friends. . At about 10:15 "Train's here" was shouted, and f uch a rush ! One of the ladies put on an infant's hood instead of her bonnet, and among the mixture of babies and bonnets on the bed in the dressing room it was not to be won dered at. About the time The Dalles ladies were ready to take leave, some one reported it was only a freight going down. Then pandemonium was let loose. - The ladies from the Locks seized the babies and the bonnets in the wild est confusion, and the bonnets -were short, not enough to . go around, and umbrellas where were -all the um brellas? At last everything was found ' and all were too happy, and took leave like life-long friends. Thus has passed an event long to be remembered , by those participating, and all unite in voting Hood River the jolliest place they know. Visitor.
