Ontario The Jtootn in Ontario rea! estate, on account of the announce nients and predictions In raiiorad cir cles In the past few months, is here The climax came with the announce ment of purchase by the Oregon Short Line of terminal grounds here ten acres in extent. There is only one meaning for such purchase, la the opinion of almost everyone who hears of it, and that is that Ontario is now irrevocably decided on as the junction point of the proposed east and ' west line across Oregon with the Oregon Short Line and the Ilarri man transcontinental system. The result of the announcement of the purchase was electrifying. Ilea estate prices at once went soaring. In some instances, it is stated, laud has doubled in value in a few days, and there seems to be no let np in the ad vanes as yet. High as the prices are, compared with those of a few months ago, there is still plenty of demand New men are arriving on every train. Each seems to bavs some money, and each is apparently anxious to get it in vested as speedily as possible. COUNTY REPORT8 SLOW. Secretary of State Wiii Ask Legisla ture t Provide Penalty. Salem The summary of the tax val uation of Clackamas county just receiv ed at the office ot the secretary of state, shows a total valuation of 19,608,045 for the year 1005, asagajnst $9,384,000 for the year 1V04. All the counties except Lane, Mai heur, Grant and Curry have filed their reports with the secretary of state for thia year. According .to the law all the reports of the several counties should have been filed not later than November 1, but as there is no penalty for failing to comply with the law, the secretary cannot compel the county courts or the county clerks to send in their reports until they get ready. It is the intention to ask the next legislature tv provide a penalty to be assessed against the counties for neglect in this regard. Prison Cost $12,000, Ealem Secretary Gatens, of the State Prison board, has completed his report, showing the amount expended during the year for improvements at the penitentiary as 112,185.82. Of this 18563.12 cams from the "revolv ing fund" and 5,522.70 from the gen eral maintenance fund. What is term' ed the "revolving fund" is made ?up of the annual rental of the foundry $2,400. This amonnt is used to keep the found ry and machine shops in repair. The foundry and machine shops were entire ly remodeled during the summer. Corporations Must Pa Fee. Salem Attorney General Crawford, in response to a query from Secretary Dunbar, holds that all corporations must pay the annnal license fee from and after the date of filing their incor poration papers with the secretary of state. & number of corporations have not organised for the transaction of business after filing their articles, and. they claim exemption from the annual license fee until such time as they shall organize for business. , t --k 5 Must Keep Roads Open. v Weston Unless people residing on the line of a rural postof&ce delivery system keep the roads leading to their places in passable condition they are likely to lose their service. The con dition of the mountain roads out of Weston has at times been so bad that it was difficult for Carrier B. F. Somer ville to make his trips, and a report of the matter to the authorities at Wash ington has brought that ultimatum to Postmaster Baker at thia place. Giant Spruce Log Cut. Astoria One ot the largest and fin est t:ees ever cut in the Lower Colum bia river district was placed in the water a few days ago by the Gray's Bay Logging company, It was a spruce measuring 105 inches in diameter at the butt and 60 inches at the first limb, 108 feet up. . The tree was cut into five logs, which contained 30,921 feet of perfectly clear lumber. . Monster Vegetables From Coos. Coquille The fertility of Coos conn- ty soil is proved by a turnip and radiah on exhibition in this city. The radish came from the garden of J. II. James and weighed. 16K pounds. The turnip came from Fat Elk and was grown by Charles Pendleton. It tipped the scales at 10 pounds. Neither of the monsters had any more than the ordi nary cultivation. Diphtheria at Weston. Weston Dinhtheria haa made ita appearance in Weston. James Killgore and a boy in his family are attacked, and Mr. TCillworn'm iwiriittnn tn mnnrt. ed as serious. A strict quarantine has oeen established by tne city council. MANY HUNTERS IN OREGON. Report of Game Warden Baker Clvss Soma Interesting Statistics. Salem -Game Warden J. W. Baker annual report shows that 17,000 of th inhabitants of Oregon are hunters, sot taking into consideration the farmers who hunt over their own lands, and are, therefore, not required to pay the yearly tax of $1. , Fees received amounted to $17,421 some of which came from nonresident hunters, who paid $10 for the privilege of killing wild game in the state $160.40 was collected as finesr for hunt ing without a license. The game warden expended $7,282.25, leaving a balance of $10,325.15. This will be available at once for deputies as soon as necessary. From the general appropriation fund, the warden receiV' ed $1,662.78 for salary and traveling expenses and $2,499.88 wss osed for salaries and expenses of deputy war dens, making a total expenditure for the year of $11,412.91 for the protec tion and propagation of game. Violations of the law have been lees frequent this year than for some time, but Justices of the peace are not inchn ed to impose severe penalties. Eighty-four persons were convicted and fined for violation of the game laws, the fines averaging $15. That Women May Vote. Salem Governor Chamberlain has issued a proclamation notifying the legal voters of this state that an initia tive petition has been filed in the oiSee of the secretary of state proposing an equal suffrage amendment to the con stitntion. The proclamation recites that the petition contains 9,904 signa tures, properly certified, and that this number being sufficient, the proposed amendment will be submitted to a vote of the people at the general election on June 4, 1906. Irrigation Promises Much. Echo The announcement that the government would complete the irriga tion system here has stimulated busi ness, work is being rushed on the big Furnish ditch, which is to be taken over ty the government when complet ed. Over 100 men are now employed and nearly as many teams. There are now 10 new buildings under construc tion, but progress is retarded by the in ability of the two lumber companies to furnish material as fast as needed. Snow a Boon to Wallowa County. Wallowa--There has been a decided fall in temperature since early in De cember, but snow has fallen to sufficient depth to make sleighing very agreeable Nearly all the farmers and many others are making good use of the sleighing privelege. The Joseph-Elgin Stage company is now carrying passengers and mail on bobsleds. Much better time is made now than by using their coaches. W bile the road remains froi en and no Chinook occurs, - sleighing will be the easiest means to bring in freight from outside points. PORTLAND MARKETS.
