The whole cost of assessing Wash ington county for the year 1805, In cluding Hold and office work, was no more than l,8.i. This is in marked contrast with Clackamas county, where it is understood that the cost was $,'i,000, and with Marion, where $7,000 was spent In seven mouths. It Is true, Marion Is a larger county, but It has not Imvii as economical in the assessor's office as Washington. Nest Sunday morning, at the Con gregational church, will la celebrated the Jloly Communion of the Ird'a Supper; the theme of the sermon pre ceding the Eucharist being "Father Damien; A Sacramental Meditation," St. Matthew xvi :'.:.'- -(!.

He was favorably impressed vSth Mr. Lcncx, and if he would contribute I he f2W at once the partnership could be formed and a stock of druirs bought. Mr. Lenox did uot close the bargain that day, but came home, where, in a few days, he was joined by tkis confl. deuce man. Tlinir agreements were concluded, and lenox hyjiothecated a piece of paper by which he got the use of f.'i'o.

Shortly after leaving here, he gave up pho tography and studied medicine, giv ing particular attention to the eye and ear. He drifted into Ea-tern Washington, where he built up a lu crative practice. He is now at Pa louse, ashington, and president of the Black fisit Consolidated Gold Mining Company, capitalized at $1,000,000. The company owns six bilges that assay from $1.75 to $1UI per ton. The ris k is free milling. Dr. Severance was at the Spokane Miners' Meeting, and, though he is a millionaire, he maintains the same modest and affable tearing as when in his tent here at llillsboro. I A few evenings ago, Heal Estate Agent Rucker went to his sleeping apartments for his night's rest. He had but touched the bed when he heard a tapping and a grinding noise proceeillug from the direction of the bank vault, which Is in the adjoining building. He could account for the noise on no- other hypothesis than an assault on the bank vault by hurg lars. Hucker, lielng a carerul and a methodic man. notified the sheriff and his deputies of his supimsed find The trio Investigated, and discovered that the disturber of the quiet and peace of the neighborhood was Bob Greer's man, who naa louna, at cios Imr time, that their large coal oil tank wis leaking. The tapping and grinding noise was the oil pump, with which Eil was changing the oil from the leaking tank into a sound one. The thick, brick walls muttied and disguised the noise, hence Mr. Bucker's mistake. The llillsboro Republican Club will hold its opening meeting next Tuesday evening; that Is, the first meeting of the campaign after the election of its officers. It looks now as though our favorite, Hon. T. It. Tongue, will lie nominated for con gress, In which event he will be so busy that no opportunity for him to address the club will present after the convention. This being the condi tion of atlairs, the club's executive committee aked Mr. Tongue to ad dress the meeting next Tuesday. After some hesitation he has consent ed to do so. On this occasion the club will put forth on extra effort fur a good meeting. Music, both vocal and instrumental, is to lie a feature, though, of course, Mr. Tongue's ad dress will be of greatest interest. The final arrangements will be announced In the hand bills to be posted Mon day aftcrnmm or Tuesday morning. The Delta drug store now has the side formelly occupied by the Jew eler, shelved with fixtures, a fac simile of the shelving on the other side of (he store, w hich Is said to have cost over $I,immJ. The new work Is the product of J. G. Johnson's mechanical skill, and is of sucrior workmanship. The lumber is from our Oregon mills, and finished in its natural colors. Passers should call and admire the work. Rev. James McDonald, pastor of the M. E. church, will lie in Ills pul pit Sunday morning and evening a usual. There will lie good music and singing at both services, but more iallv in the evening. The sub- leet for discussion In the morning Is, "No torn promise om rviis.iniii!iii:ii anil Courage." The evening subject Is, "Is Conscience a Safe Moral Guide?" Howard C. Tripp gave two tem perance lecture here last wk to fair audiences. Mr. Tripp Is a good speaker, though of the sensational order. He Is, t.s),amewhat Uu H"' to egotism, which is Been in libersl quotations from bis ow n pis ins. He is a good talker, yet hardly equal to Griggs, who was here aliout a year ago.

At midnight dainty refreshments were served, which concluded this very delightful occasion. From similarity of Jobs, the party or parties ho robbed the safe at the llillsboro station last week, have calh-d at N'ewherg, In Yamhill coun ty. On Tuesday night last, a store in that city was opened, money tills robbed, anil work commenced on the safe. A hole was drilled, but for some reason, probably fright, they fled, leaving all the t.sils on the floor. It la'gins to be liclieved that there is a gang of cracksmen on the West Side. Some days ago, Mrs. Cisly, a mar ried woman, mysteriously disap peared from Tacoma, Wash. At the time, her husband was in the East, but as soon as he had word of her disapiarance, he came to the Pacific and instituted a search. Insanity is thought to lie the cause for her wan dering. A rewnrd of $1,000 Is of fered for Information leading to a knowledge of her fate. A photo graph and description of the missing woman Is displayed in the window of the Hillslsiro postoffice. Deputy Fish anil Game Protector Bagley, assisted by Deputy Sherill' Burke Ttfngue, have made several arrests of trout fishers I he past week. On Monday, young Scheilfclin was caught with trout in his possession and fined t-0. This he paid, and will fish no more till after April 1st, at which dato the close season ends. Later, Wesley (Jarrison was arrested, charged w ith a like offense taking trout out of season. He stood a trial before Justice Knight and a jury. Most of the day was consumed in listening to testimony and the argu ment of counsel. The case attracted much attention. One thing is true if the law Is a" go.nl one it ought to be enforced; if it is not, then it should lie repealed eitizenB ought to olay the law as long as it is in the code, anil not experiment to see how near they can come to breaking it and still get clear. It may become necessary to adopt Dinghy's plan -kill all the fish in the Tualatin and its branches. In this case, the jury promptly acquitted the defendant, because the state could not prove that he had trout In his possession, lie had thrown them in the creek. Another $-'0 of the taxpayers money has been blown In on costs. Repeal the law and let the fish Ik? killed. (OlTiT IIOISE SEWS. rilOBATK (Xll'KT. Estate Win. Greenwood, deceased.

"An oldest lnhabilant,"a few days ago, told 01 tne organization 01 me republican party in tins county, in lhoS. Fremont had made me race for president in 1s."(f., and had re- reived votes, but they were stutter ing, and our"tir-t Inhabitant" thinks that the first republican ticket nomi nated in the state was tliaf of Wash- iugton county. In 1S"8 there was really but one party, the democratic, dominated by A. Bush, of Silcm. The organization was governed and controlled hy what was familiar to every politician in the territory the "Salem clique." There was opposition, to be sure, assuming the name of national democracy, but it was not thoroughly organ! red, and bad no recogntee.1 leader. The know-nothing party, In Washington county, failed, and it wa sought to organise active nppoaltinn to the Salem democracy. To effect this, a call was made fur a mass meeting of citizen, to advise, one with the other, coiiivrning the placing of a ticket In the field county offi.ir. A county denioWatlc convention, to select itrlecate to the territorial ronven the annie dav. In the' lion, was held court hou. The only other house of a nubile character In the village! was the district wuool house, which .i i . .i:,i..nifUi.i,rilutr, then stood some distance east of Peter Boscow's residence, and to the souin of Main street. There the opponents of the regular democracy assemble.! It was a mass meeting, and pniiti dans of greater or b proiuinem-e attended. Goshey, or liosey, aril Bennett, from Columbia couuty, came. Dr. McBride, w ho had s ime aspirations for state honors, was here from Yamhill county. More from the county were Hon. T. K Corne. lius, W. D. Hare, Isaac M. Evans, K L. Whitcomb and S. Whi'diuh, hi brother; W. II. Bennett, 11. E. Wiley, the Cald wells and many others who-e uamcs are not now recalled. Law rence I lall was chairman. Hare was then a young man. Multnomah county had only a few months before been set off from Washington, and Mr. Hare was hire 'copying the records for the archives of the new couuty. The first thing that engaged the convention was to sekct a name. One iirorstsed National Democracy, but the old Whigs could not enduie the name, and put it from them. There were those prtseiit who loved the loaves ami fishes. They proposed Citizens' or People's ticket; another faint voice said Republican ticket. "No! No!! No!!! People will call us W.sily Coats, Abolitionists, Nigger Stealers. We can't stand that," and much more to the same tll'ect was said. Haru had not said anything yet. lie had sat mutt as a mouse. But he had been reading congression al debates, and knew something of the aims and objects of the new parly. The uooly coat epithet aroused him. He got the Hi sir and firmly and emplutticully said: "Wooly coats, or no wooly coats, the time has come and now is, when we must take a stand on these matters." From the first, he had the crowd with him. The house was a jam, for the democratic convention had com- pleted its work and had gone over to see tr.e run. lne longer ne simikc the more enthusiasm was amused. Joe Meek was there, and, after one particularly telling sentence, he jumped up and called out : "If ever gosK'l truth was said, this is it." Hare's speech carried the motion to call a county convention to nominate a republican ticket. Gosey and Ilen nett bolted. McBridt -hook his head. Bill Bennett and Dr. Wilcox, of this county, stayed, but feared a mistake had been made Theconvention was held. Dr. Wilson Bowl by was nom inated for the legislature, and was elected by two or three majority. W. D. Hare was nominated (or county clerk, and was elected by sixty-four or sixty-five majority. Dr. Bowlby was, thert-rore, the first anil tor a time the only republican In the legis lature. From that day to this the Republican party has always la-en in the majority in this county, though the opposition has occasionally got a man by hook or by crook. CORNKLUS. J. R.
