More Education for Assessors.
Salem Another effort Is now being
made by the state tax commission to
effect a more Just and equitable as
sessment of railroad properties. A
circular La: b?n lately mailed to all
the county assessors pointing . out
which property is assessed by the
assessors themselves, under the laws
of this Btate. It is essential that the
assessors should understand the law,
so that no railroad property will es
cape taxation, and zUo that none may
be doubly assessed.

Dayton, Wash. Aftr several years
of careful cultivation, farmers In tbls

wheat that will withstand the rigid
winter weather af ibis latitude. It le
Is one of the club varieties and the
present perfection hjs been reached
by seeding fall wheat year after year
la the fall until a tough, hardy va
riety capable of withstanding the cold

Unable to raise the money to pay
a 1900 filing feo, the United States
has abandoned its plans of interven

on the Umatilla river, and will at pres

the government denies tbe right of the
water courts to pass upon tbe appro
priation of any water from that
stream. The Water U claimed by the
Umatilla, Cayuse and Walla Walla In
dians under tbe treaty of June, 1855.
