With timber landa worth from $20 to $40 per acre, at what valu ation should they be rated by the assessor? This is the question that is not only puzzling the assessors o' the state but is causing much agitation among the large owners of timber lands, particularly the non-resident land grabbers who have captured so large a portion of the best timber iu the 6tate. With in the last few years timber lands have about trebled in value, and the former extreme low assessments now appear ridiculous. A number of the counties of the state, with Clatsop among the first, have taken the matter up with a view to mak ing a more equitable rating. Two years ago the timber land of Clatsop county was assessed as high as $7.50 an acre, but the board of equalization trimmed it down to about $4.00, which has been the maximum for some years much of it going far below tha figure. Across the river in Wah ington timber is assessed as higl as $15 an acre. . With the raise o limber land and other property which could well stand higher figures, the valuation of this county could easily be doubled without doing any taxpayer an injustice, It will readily be admitted thu there is no justice or reason in assessing fine timber claims worth from $20 to $40 an acre at from $1.50 to $4.00. The owners of these lands are gaining wealth by simply letting their timber stand while its value mounts up. Ihey should bo made to nay for thei own, just as much as though it consisted of improvements made by their own labor and industry. After the valuable timber has been logged off then the values will fall flat, und owners will not wan to pay on a valuation of more than $1 per acre. They should be made to pay their just share of the burden while the land is still valuable, Besides equalizing the assessment to all the taxpayers, the virtue of a higher valuation lies in a low rate of taxation. When a capitalist is shown the magnificent resources of this country and sees how generous a kind providence has been in providing the raw materia he is at once on the eve of invest ing. But when he is told that the tax rate is from 3 to 5 per cent he throws up his hands and declares that he would be satisfied if he could realize that rate on his money in the east, and the prospect of paying such a tax frightens him away. The only obstacle to properly assessing the timber lands is the difficul ty of ascertaining the amouu and quality of timber on each quarter section of land. To do this requires the services of a cruiser, and takes time and money but the end justifies the means and the taxpayers ut large demand the reform.- -Astonan. Due Notice is Served.

Then the blossoms break out, and the trees are yellow with golden globes, and white with orange flowers. It may be that a flurry of snow has whitened the mountain tops, and then you have an artistic background for a tropical forest. The air is full of sunshine, and heavy with fragrance as night comes on, and then, if the moon be shining, you may hear at midnight through open windows, the song ol the mocking-bird in the scented grove, and it never seemed so melodious be fore.
