McGnunt. who returned llie firai part of the week from Port land. Mr. McGinnia said, according to statement! made by officer! of the Portland company, proticcu for thit .ervice during the coming winter are brighter than whfen previoutly pro posed. It it the intention of the Portland company, according to Mr. McGinnit. to run boat! from l urtlanu to r.u gene twice a week for a certain period I hia it i! believed will aid in obtain ing an appropriation from the United Staiet government for the Willamette river and result in putting it in shape for a regular boat service. The steam, boat service contidered would be for both pataengert and freight. The trip would require about a day's time. The Ponoma steamer, recently re modeled, will be the boat utilized for Ihe trip, in the event of the establish ment of the service. This boat, a medium-tized iteamee, plies between Corvallia and Portland during the winter. It needs but about four feet of water with a fair sized load and less than two fret, when the boat ia empty. Mr. McGinnis said that Captain Graham, president of the Oregon City Transportation company, stated that contrary to general opinion, the plan it feasible and would, it estahlishedl eventually result in a general daily service to Eugene front Portland dur ing the entire year. The Ponoma may carry loads to Corvallis to be reloaded or may steam through to Portland, it was Haled. HAMMOND LUMBER CO. SUED ' FOR $20,000 DAMAGES S. V.

SHERIFF BODINE MAKES STATEMENT ON PAYING TAXES The limit on the time for the second Veriod of paying 1914 taxes will soon be up and it is well for properly own ers to be familiar with the rulings and l:-ws on the subject. In an interview r.iih the newspaper reporters today Sheriff Bodine said: There has been so much general confusion this year about the time of the payment of taxes and the date ot delinquency that we have taken the matter up with the state tax commis sion and olitained a definite statement which in substance is as follows: "In the current roll, if no part of the tax has iieen paid by September I. the tax becomes delinquent on that date, and the penalty chjrged will be It' per cent. -:.d interest, will accrue from thiit date at ihe rate of one per cent uer month. "Urn if on;-half of the tax has been paid, the last half may be paid with out penalty or interest any time be fore the lirst day ol uctooer. on which day the last half becomes de linquent with a penalty of 10 per Cent, and interest from said first day of October at the rate ol one per cent per month. "From the above it will be seen that there will be two dates of delinguency tl :s year, anl tax payers are urged to life due care so as to not get the dates confused We are preparing notices to be mailed this mornth to those who have made payment, and early in September we will mail out notices to those who have made part payments. However it is not best to depend too much upon receiving notice, for there must necessarily be so many changes and omissions in addresses, that there is always a certain per cent who do not receive their notice. Mr. McTimmonds, of near Leba non, a tormer Aioany man, was in town last evening. JUDGE HEWITT LEAVES SATURDAY FOR MINNEAPOLIS Tomorrow Judge Hewitt will leave for Minneapolis.
