The delinqent taxes of Wasco county, as shown on the rolls now in the hands of the sheriff are $60,000. an most equal to the indebted)! county. Every citizen i: admit that this state of at' not exist, and that all tasoa collected. On account of in the past the county court ; mount al- -a of the doubtless .ire Bbonld should be bard times Las shown leniency to taxpayers, but that leniency has reached the ' limit, and the court cannot wait longer on delinquents to make settlements. For this reason a warrant has been attached to each de linquent roll commanding the sheriff to collect all taxes by seizure and Bale of property. With a bountiful crop now in sight, there can no longer be any rea sonable excuse for the non-payment of taxes. The sheriff is boand by oath to comply with the terms of the warrants attached to the tax rolls for the collec tion thereof, and has no option in the matter. Delinquent taxpayers can save the cost of seizure and sale of property by eettling their taxes at once. Robert Kelly, Sheriff and Tax Collector for Wasco County. Dated, August 4, 1898. E. C.

In Paris there is a convent and gar den known through the imortal Hugo's Ies Miserables." It is the convent of the Petit Picpos. In the groonds of tbis ; convent is a small cemetery where near ly 1500 victims of the guillotine were buried indiscriminately. . Here also re pose the bones of La Fayette beside those of his wife, who wished to be buried there. The resting place of La Fayette, generally unknown and forgotten, is marked only by a plain granite slab. Upon a register kept by the concierge of the convent there are .inscribed i the names of but a very email numbers of causual visitors. Id view of these facts the "La Fayette Memorial Cotnin(i8sion,has been formed for the purpose of erecting a monument to the memory of La Fayette as a twen tieth century tiibute rem the people of this nation, to be unveiled with fitting ceremony on July 4th, 1900, and thus grandly celebrate United States Day at the Paris exposition. It is proposed that the coat of the undertaking, which is estimated to approximate a quarter of a million dollars, shall be defrayed by small contributions secured through the agency of the school children throughout the country. The dedication of this monument, se cured and built through the efforts of the young people of this country, will make conspicously resplendent our United States day at the Paris exposi tion of 1900. No country will find such a basis for the celebration of its national day in Paris; but all the nations of the earth will unite with us in the dedication of this beautiful memorial, a tribute which shall forever mark the grave of La Fay ,ette, whose memory is consecrated in the hearts of men. It requires no argument to convince the liberty-loving people of America of the far-reaching value of this most fit ting, opportune and significant move ment. It will promote patriotism and implant in the minds of our young gen eration, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, a broader knowledge ot their country's hietory. It is proposed that the president ask the governors ef the states to especially designate October 19, 18'J8, as La Fay ette Day in every school district through out the land, when our children will be told of the struggle for liberty, and they may then contribute their help and pen niea to the memory of the defender of their nation. THE PLAN SUGGESTED. The committee has decided on October 19th, the anniversary of the surrender of Cornwallis, at Yorktown. as the day which the schools of the United States are' asked to recognize as La Fayette Day. On this day, it is hoped by con certed effort to raise ample funds to build the monument on a scale com mensurate with the occasion. In the universities and colleges of the land, the beads of the institutions are asked to appoint committees from their students to arraDge and carry out public exercises suited to the idea; embracirg per nape historic drama, patriotic drama, etc, charging an admission fee or collect ing voluntary contributions as the local conditions may suggest, and turning the proceeds over to the president of the college, who shall forward it to the treas urer of the memorial committee. The foregoing suggestions are tenta tive and .may be changed to euit the local conditions. Kotice -o the Public. That certain note given by the under signed to Mark T.

I sincerely believe that at one critical time this medicine waa the in. direct saviour of our army, for if the packers had been unable to work there would have been no way of getting sap plies to the front. .There were no roads that a wagon train could use.
