Register: "The editor of the Guard places himself in a ridicu lous position in his repeated sallies at the editor of the Oregonian con cerning the delinquent tax list that the Portland paper is publishing, inasmuch as the Guard has pub lished a similar list for Lane county and the epithets that he is hurling at the Oregonian will apply just as well to himself as to the Oregonian editor." Another thing the Guard omits in its "sallies." It fails to notice that the Oregonian has not adver tised levies upon personal property of delinquents to be sold at the court house, or the names of de linquent poll tax citizens to be sold as has the Guard. Neither has the Oregonian published any levies for amounts below $2 that we have noticed; whereas the Guard pub lished numerous levies varying in amounts from a few cents up, in face of the known fact that the property levied upon would not pay the expense of advertising. newspoper men of the state. Of and that the county would have to pay the Guard for publishing the same.
