IT IS ALARMING- On March 81, J8fl0, County Clerk Lee prepared the following official semi annual statement: LIABILITIES. To warrants drawn on the County Treasurer and outstanding and unpaid $109,09') 98 To estimated amount Interest accrued thereon 5,000 00 Total llublllties ...$114,095 98 RESOURCES. Bv funds In bands of County Treasurer applicable to payment of county warrants Bv estimated unnatd current taxes applicable to payment county warrants By value tax sale certificates applicable Total resouroee $ B0,73 83 RECAPITULATION. Total liabilities $114,095 98 Total resources 66,739 S3 Net Indebtedness of Lane county $ 47 9'j6 65 It will be seen at a glance that the debt of Lne county Is alarming in the extreme. County Clerk Lee by twisting figures makes the debt $47,956 65. This is false and misleading. In the first place be appropriates all the taxes levied and calls them "resources," when be Is fully aware Unit a delinquent tax lint Is always returned. Even under the excellent collections of Uberiff Withers, he reported last year delinquent $1,437 18, only $356 94 of this being on icul property, the balance belug on corrections to the roll and personal prnpi-rty that bad left the county. This Is certainly poor "resources"; and again, generally the average delinquent tax list Ib from $3,000 to $4,000. And again, he bas found a new "resource," tax sale certificates appllranle to payment of county warrants, estimated at $2,500. He Is the Ami rtmu in find this. In fact, this is already labeled as a "resource" under tax collections. Again, the property bid In by the couuty is generally that which other buyers are afraid of, hence must be quite poor "resources." Again, the county has been In the habit of appropriating all of It belongs to the souool fund, aobool dlBtriots and olties. The outstanding warrants at this time amount to: Up to March 31, 1900 $ I 09,696.98 For the month of April, 1900 (estimated) 3 OOO.OO Estimated Interest 6,000.00 been Not a Single warrant has Lack of funds is the cause. RESOURCES. Lane county has no resouroes on hand applicable to payment f county warrants excepting $3,800, and In faot this turn, by law provided, will be wwil in paying state taxes, and will not bo ured In reducing our interext-liearlng tieot. wc will state further: That 816,000 whloh must be paid first, and then after this the school fund is untitled to five mills on all collections. It is not at all likely tha' a c ill fur county warrants oan be made by Treasurer Patterson before the latter part of May or first of June. And our county debt still increases. Last year the delinquent tax list was not made up until December. Taxes will probably not be paid more promptly this year. By that time the taxes will pay some eld warrants while new ones will he Issued in their stead, nnd the "resouroes" will vanish. Of oourse this is If the present conditions REMAIN rjNOK&nUED. . SOME TRUTHS- The debt of Lane county March 81, 1900, approximated: County warrants outstanding $109,095 98, and itiiereHt(etlmteri)$0,000.$115,69o 08 If the "resouroes" are subtracted then the iiinnliig expenses for 12 months should be added, which amounted from April 1, 1899, to April 1, 1900, to 74,685 69 Kstimated Interest to acorue between ivui, on warrants RESOURCES Taxes to be oolleeted Tax certificates (entlinaleii collection) Cash In h inds of Treasurer l'atterson SUMMARY.

Danger of Ocean Wrecks It Is stated that the Atlantic Ckean contains many wrecked vessels which drift hither aud thither, and as their poHitlons change with the winds and tides they are a constant menace to ocean traffic.
