Portland, Nov. ».—What wa* designated by J. W. Daniela, profes sor at the Hill Military Academy, a* a alight temblor, jarred the citv just after 3 o'clock yeaterday morning Thia visitation ia aaid to have been lighter than the one which was re corded here about a month ago and which waa felt by many people. Professor Daniela say» that auch visitations are caused by the heated condition of the earth's interior, the pressure rising to a point which re solta in a jar to the outer crust. “These disturbances are known as temblors, not earthquakes, and are of little consequence.** explains»! Professor Daniela. “Thia one was verv slight although it awakened me. There was not to exceed two seconds of tremor and it waa so slight it did not even rattle dishes in my home as did the last one be fore it. “Temblors are not of frequent oc currence here, thia being the second one to visit Portland in my 13 years of residence. However, tney may occur anywhere at any time and are not aerioua. They are more likely to happen in mountainous regions. Temblors have no relationship what ever to earthquakes.’* Our Bohemian friends complain that Scio boys or young men create some disorder al the dances in that the boys refuse to buy tickets but crowd the door and sometimes get into the hall. Don't do thia, boys for it is wrong and aure to bring about trouble. If you have an in vitation, buy your ticket and con form to the rules like gentlemen. ear Difit lAo HOT WATER BOTTLES and FOUNTAIN SYRINGES Particularly ha* thia been the case during the annual picnics held at Brownsville by the Unn County Pio neer Association until the project has c »me to be a matter very dear to their heart*. Personally 1 have conversed within the past few months with many of th* suns and daughters of the«« old families, and for various reasons that m-ed not lie enumerated here they almost universally believe that now ia an opportune time to begin this work. So upon the advice and at the re quest of quite a number of these native sons and daughters I now take it upon me. as president of the; Linn county Pioneer Association, to call a meeting to be held in the community house in Albany at two o'clock, p. m., on Wednesday, Dec ember H. for the purpose of organ ising at that time a Linn county memorial association whose princi pal object shall be to make the nec essary arrangement* for erection of a monument a* outlined abovq. It is earnestly hoped that a li rge number of the descendants of the Linn county pioneer* be present at that time to aid with their counsel in preparing the plana for thia very laudable work. A M TKMrtXPUN. About Road Taxe«. It ia believed that few precincts i Linn county will vote money for road building this fall. The reason ia evident. There is too little road benefit for the amount of money expended. The 3-mill county gen eral road tax wa* defeated The people see the dollar of tax they vote shrink down to at »out 50 cent* tiefore it reaches the road, and it d<>e« not suit them. Men who have control of spending the road tax moneys seem careless whether little or much work is accomplished on the road*. The people are tired of voting liberal road taxes to I m - paid out to men who demand high wages but fritter their time away The people want and will have results or they will quit voting road taxes en tirely. A* a rule the people are willing tn vote money for both schools and roads. They have lost faith in g«tting adequate results on the road* and they are losing faith in the adequacy of the sch«»ois. «■♦ New atock just arrived.
