observance intended to keep green
the memory of that great patriot to

1900, during the Paris exposition. The
Dalles, however, was an exception, tbe
schools here having been unable to ar
range a program at the present time,
since it would have conflicted with tbe
district fair. The schools hope to be
ready to render a program in the Vogt
opera bouse about Nov. 4th, that will
be dedicated to Lafayette.

Farming, in Wasco county, is gener
ally profitable especially when com
pared with like pursuits in other lo
calities, and especially has fruit farm
ing proven profitable to those who
bave devoted themselves to raising
just the right kind' of. fruit. Chris
Deathman, of Hood River, is certainly
one of those who has made no mistake?
in fruit culture. He has an orchard
of five acres located about si? miles
soutb of tbe town of Hood Kiver, that
is now six years old, and this season
be sold the crop of apples for fttOO
spot cash before picking, thus- receiv
ing $120 an acre as a result of his farm

IMPORTANT DECISION. , .
JaSge Banford fays Sberpmen May Pali
Over Railroad Land.
A. S. Bennett, of this city, bas just
received notice trom the clerk of the
United States circuit court at Tacoma,
of a decision by Judge Hanford in the
case of tbe Northern Pacific Railroad
Co. vs. Cunningham, which is of great
importance to sheep raisers within the
belt of land covered by the grant to
that railroad company.
The case was one brought by the
railroad company to enjoin Cunning
ham from letting his sheep grar"
across the railroad sections. Judge
Hanford states the argument on behalf
of Cunningham as follows:
i. That in all such grants or con
veyances; that is, wnere- tne larc
grained is entirely surrounded by tLe
land .reserved to.the grantor, and vi-e
vera, that there Is a way of necessity
which passes to the grantee on the one
hand, and is reserved by the grantor
on the other, to pass across the land
gra nted or reserved as the' case may
be. to reach Its own land.
"2 That this right goes with the
land and passes to any person using
the land with the consent of the owner
wbi-ther it be a tenant or a licensee,
goi;ig there with tho permiaslon of
thp owner.
3. That the defendant in this case,
in common with all citizens of the
country, is a. licensee or tne govern
ment in the use of its public lands for
crazincr purposes, and goes there to
use the land with its permission and
authority, and therefore, as long as
such Implied permission and authority
continues, has tb? same right to go
across plaintiff's land to reach the
government sections, as against the
olaintlff. as tbe government Itself
would have."
And then says:
"I can and do give the defendant
the full benefit of tne above proposi
tions in their entirety."
Judge Hanford holds further, how
ever, that this does not autnonze tne
grazing of sheep upon the lands of the
railroad company generally, out only
the right to use sufficient of the rail
road lands as a highway, to gain access
to the government lanis, and that the
plaintiff is entitled to have injunction
against the use of Its lands for gen
eral grazing purposes.
This will be very satisfactory to the
settlers and sheepmen, and . they only
claim the right to pass across the rail
road sections to the government lands.

HE WANTS JUSTICE.
A Taxpayer Refutes to Settle With the
County Cntll All Pay.
Recently Sheriff Kelley sent out
notices to all delinquent taxpayers
notifying tbem that they must make
in. mediate settlement of their taxes
or he would be compelled to levy on
their property. Here is a sample of
one of the replies he received. It is
from a prosperous Hood River farmer,
one who pays his obligations promptly
and still who wants justice done ail.
and insists that justice be done all tax
payers In every part of the country
Here is the letter:
"Mr. Robert Kelley, Sheriff: I re
ceived your notice of my unpaid taxes
This is not an oversight of mine, but
I had made ifp my mind to never pay
Into the treasury of Wasco county
another dollar of taxes until .the offic
lals had either imposed a penalty for
non payment or taken action to collect
dennqucnt taxes.
Tbis conclusion I bad come to be
cause ol tbe state of the county's
financial condition. The countv is
paying 8 per cent on a large amount
of outstanoing worrants. The partieB
who bold part of tbe warrants are
owing (or have been several years
taxes on their property, and have not
paid tbem because they could iuvest
the money rta county warrants and
draw interest on the same.
If you would impose a 10 per cent
penalty every six months on tbe un
paid taxes, these ghouls, who are liv
ing off the taxpayers would have to
pav up.
I most sincerely" hope your ' notice
means what it says, 'that you must
proceed at once to levy on-all property
on which taxes are unpaid.' If this
means a levy of 10 per cent on the
amount as a first item of expense, I
think the county wo tld soon be able
to pay off at least a part of its old war
rants. I hope we now have a set of officers
who will do something besides draw
their salaries and their breath. . If
they do not do more then it would be
better for the country ac large and tbe
taxpayers in general if they wou'.d
cease to draw the latter." .

WE HOLD MANILA
AND CAVITE
Insurgents Have Evacuated
Both Plcaes.
NEW YORK, Oct. 20. A dispatch to
tbe Herald from Manila says: "The
insurgent general, Pio Pilar, has
agreed to evacuate Paco Paco, the
last suburb of Manila held by tbo Fil-
liplnos, October 25. This completes
the American oonquest of the city.
The last rebel has left Cavlte. The
Americans now bold Cavlte and Ma
nila, the rest of the Island of Luzon
being in tbe hands of the insurrec
tionist faction.
How little power Agulnaldo posses
ses is shown by bis refusal to grant
passes to visit tbe Interior, on the
ground that the northern provinces
ars held by General Makaboulos, who
Is in revolt against the Malo Los gov
ernment.
Agulnaldo has ordered the release
of Spanish civilian prisoners taken at
Iloilo.
Steamers under the American 'flag
are foroldden to load by tbe native
authorities un'ess they pay a tax of 5
per cent ad valorem on tbe cost, and
20 per cent on .their freight to the local
governor. '
A large stock of tobacco was seized
at Cagayan from tbe Compania Gen
erate and from the factories. Aqui-
naldo refused to return the prize as he
requires funds.
Aguinaldo is preparing for a possible
return of the islands to Spanish rule
and will entertain no proposals from
Spain. Every native is sworn to join
his ranks In such an eveut. - - -

Teller Is Not Discouraged by the Supreme
Court Decision.
Dentee, Oct. - 20. Regarding the
decision of . the supreme court, an
nounced last evening, the awarding of
tbe name and emblem of the silver re
publican party to the broad or anti-
Teller faction of that party, Senator
Teller said:
"It will take more than a decision
of a bare majority of tbe court to dis
courage the true friends of silver.
Our enemies may have' the emblem.
but we will have the votes: -and tbe
fusion ticket will be elected by a great
majority."
A committee to fill the vacancies on
the silver republican ticket will meet
Friday night and it is understood fus
ion will be effected with the repub
licans, Henry .R. Wolcott, brother of
