The Tax Levy.
The county commissioners made the
tax levy today as follows : State, 3 mills,
state school purposes, 5 mills, countv
purposes, 12 mills, county road purposes,
mill ; total state and county, 21 mills
Of the levy for county purposes the one'
twentieth of one mill will go to the G
A. R. relief fund. It will be seen that
the tax rate is the same as last year, but
as the assessments are reduced from
fifteen to twenty per cent, the rate as
compared to last year, is quite a re
duction.

Dear Sir : In reply to your proposi

undersigned, a committee appointed to
canvass the matter with our citizens
will offer you the following :
If you will guarantee to put in and
operate the wool scouring and drying
plant and a woolen mill of the capacity
of not less than two sets of modern
machinery, referred to in your propo
sition, we for our citizens and the wool
growers of this section will undertake
to furnish you a desirable site, and suit
able building; the same to be donated to
you on our being assured of the es
tablishment and operation of the works
in good faith. Our citizens do not feel
justified in furnishing the funds neces
sary for purchasing machinery and op
erating the plant and therefore respect
fully decline that portion of your pro
position. Very Respectfully, .

Phoenix Tonight.
Davy Crocket last night drew a small
house, not half that should have turned
out. Mr. French and his troupe are all
excellent actors, such as The Dalles sel
dom sees, but from the attendance it
would seem that talent is not ap
preciated by our people. The play to'
night is "Phoenix" and this will be the
last opportunity to hear these really
talented people. They should be given
a rousing good bouse, if for nothing else,
to show that a good troupe can come
here and be appreciated. Besides, it will
probably be the last opportunity for
some time to enjoy a good play, for
it may be set down as a certainty that
when such actors as these are ignored
others like them are going to give us a
wide birtn. We can safely promise oar
readers a genuine treat in "Phoenix
and sincerely hope that a good bouse
will see the curtain go up tonight.

Dated Dalles City, Jan. 1, 1895.
Irom Mr. Wm. 1. btaats, who came
in from Dufnr today, we learn that the
funeral of the late P. R. Grazir, who
died suddenly at the residence of W. L
Hendrix, Thursday night, last, took
place at Dufnr, Sunday, the body being
buried in the Odd Fellows' cemetery
The procession was met near town by
the Dufur brass band, of which the de
ceased had been a member, and was led
by them to' the Methodist church, a
funeral march being played. At the
church the services were' conducted by
A. J. Brigham. After which, preceded
by the band with another solemn march
Hood River will not put on city airs
for a little while, the county court today
making the following order :
'Now at this time came on for final
hearing and determination the matter of
the incorporation of the town of Hood
River, and it appearing to the. court
that all the proceedings had herein were
not strictly in accordance with the law,
and that the boundaries of said pro
posed corporate limits were erroneously
defined, embracing therein the property
of Frank II. Button, Mrs. L. J Rand,
Ed Rand and Eliza E. Reynolds, whose
written remonstrances thereto were duly
presented and allowed at the regular
November term of this court. Now,
therefore, it is ordered and adjudged
that the petition for the incorporation of
the town of Hood River, Wasco County,
Oregon, be, and the same is hereby de
nied, and all proceedings had hereunder
held for naught."
