A NEW LAND RULE.
The Lakeview laudoflicc has sent
out notice to the effect that after
this week no papers affecting lands
in that district will be accepted un
less executed within the district or
within the county in which the
lauds arc situated. This will be a
material inconvenience to many
jeoplc jvho have made arrange
ments for proofs at more conven
ient places. According to the new
rule, no applications or proofs for
lands lying south of township 22
can be made in this county here
after. The law governing the mat
ter reads as follows:
sidewalks or blistering pavements
to keep us from contact with the
soil. Wc can take a full breath
without crowding our neighbor, we
have freedom of action and freedom
to think straight. We can lead an
honest life, unfretted by the stilted
conventions and artificial, hypocrit
ical standards that have grown up
in the cities that arc such a heavy
load for our civilization to carry.
Hcnd is no plnec for the shabby
genteel, but whole-souled, healthy
minded folk will find this a haven
of rest and a well or sattslactton, as
well as a hive of industry and an
inspiration to better living.
vests good money in development
enterprises must get preference over
those who merely have the will to
do so. This is the reasonable law of
business everywhere. "It is reeog.
nixed us justice. Industrial develop
ment could not take place but for
such recognition. Now that this
matter has been fought to the finish
it in to lie expected that all the qu
ergics of both parties will go Into
constructive effort and not into at
tacks upon others. Then tho count
try will advance.

The new rule does not seem to be
supported by the law, though the
language of the law is a little am
biguous and there will probably be
110 attempt to override the rule.
PAY YOUR PERSONAL. ROAD TAX.
The district road supervisor, John
Siscmore, has begun an active cam
paign for road work. He finds
that many people are slow to re
spond to his invitation to work or
pay, and some have even bluntly
refused to discharge their obliga
tion to the public roads. Therefore
lie declares that he will give legal
notice and then proceed according
to law to enforce the collection of
the road poll tax or the penalty for
refusing to pay it.
An impression prevails to some
extent that the law provides no
means whereby a penalty for refusal ! J,'me,0, Hwy capitaii.tahuMauWrit.

THE WAY TO QEV A RAILWAY.
Tlfcrc is enough state pride in
Central Oregon to ,tuake it prefer
railroad connection with Portland.
But this is a raw country and it has
not the capital necessary to build
railroads or other large develop
ment agencies. The money must
come from the centers of commerce 1
and capital. In this case, if Port
land is to have access to the Cen
tral Oreuon country it must liestir
itself to establish adequate lines of
communication.
The sentiment of the matter will
not weigh when it comes down to a
question of cold business calcula
tion, Wc need a railroad. If
Portland will not throw out this
life line u life line quite as much
for Portland as for Central Oregon
we will accept the railroad from
any direction it may come. The
railroad is more important than is
the direction of its approach. Por
many reasons wc would prefer the
extension of the Columbia South
ern. Next in preference would be
the Corvallis & Kastern. Hut if we
cannot get cither of those let a line
come in from Ontario or Reno or
any other old place.
Evidence of the fact that Port
land is atxntt past the stage of
mumbling polite phrases to .Mr.
Harriman and is approaching the
stage of action is supplied by the
following gratifying paragraph in
.Monday s Oregouiau:

fail to respond to official notice, to j commercial and
proceed to collect the tax by levy political, bonds,

That's the spirit that will get a

empt from such process. If no
property can be found the super
visor is directed to bring an action
in his own name against the delin
quent, and any judgment "shall be
enforced in the same manner as u
judgment for a fine in a criminal
action.
This means that the de
linquent may be sent to jail to serve
time for the amount of the judg
ment against him for personal road
tax, The action can be brought in
justice court.
This personal road tax is fixed
in the law at two days' labor or $3
in cash. "IJach male between 2 1
and 50 years of age, except those
who are a public charge or 'are too
infirm to perform Iabo?" are subject
to the tax in this county.
Supervisor Sisemore declares his
purpose to collect this tax impar
tially from all. He has been in
structed by the county judge to en
force collection against any 'who
shall refuse to pay. Our roads
need the work and all get the bene
fit of good roads. There ought to
be no objection to working or pay
ing the money for this purpose.
If anyone knows of a more de
lightful climate than that of Demi,
we should like to have it pointed
out, I,ook at the weather rejxrt
for June, published elsewhere in
this paper a mean maximum of
74.1 and a mean minimum of 50,1
degrees, with rain enough to soak
the dust on six days. The ex
tremes of temperature were 26 and

Bend has reason to feel gratified
over the Potirth of July celebration.
A year ago the national holiday
was celebrated here by a collection
of 25 persons, and there was a great
effort to get everybody out, too.
This year more than 200 persons
listened to the exercises in the park
south of the postoffice and the rest
of the town was by no menus de
serted. It was an orderly, good
humored crowd, too, entirely cred
itable to this country. The sports,
the ball game and the dances were
well patronized and the single act
of ruffianism reported stood out in
strong con t last with the general
good spirit and neighborly fellow
ship that marked all the festivities.
There was no display of peace offi
cers to compel civility; it was a
matter of self control which is an
attribute of the highest type of civ
ilization. Bend has the spirit of
American independence not arro
gnucc and can be trusted to make
a good record.

Secretary Richardson of the Hfixc

The Columbia Southern people
have begun negotiations with John
Sisemore for the transfer of his
property for towtisite purpose. It
is said that that company has given
up the Lytic townxitM and will now
make a pull for some point farther
up the river.
The new song books for the IJcitd

be a general practice at the school

are 50 books enough for all who
