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.

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.
